Chapter 68 Each Has Its Own Plan
As soon as these words were spoken, the hall fell into a dead silence. Everyone looked at each other, their eyes filled with shock and confusion.
The statement that she was suspected of being a jinx to her husband was particularly taboo. Yun Wuhen's words undoubtedly created an insurmountable obstacle for Xiao Fuguang's marriage.
Xuanyuan Jing looked at Yun Wuhen, then at Xiao Fuguang.
Emperor Xuanyuan pondered for a moment and nodded.
"The Imperial Master has said so. The princess is indeed not suitable for marriage. Prince, you have come from afar. Why don't you stay in Xuanyuan for a few days? I will choose a suitable person for you to marry."
Although Hu Yanqing was unwilling, he could only accept this reality. He bowed to Emperor Xuanyuan.
"Thank you for your understanding, Your Majesty. I will wait for good news."
A welcoming banquet ended with Xiao Fuguang being suspected of being a husband-killer.
Xiao Fuguang walked out of the palace with the imperial teacher. For some reason, he felt that his teacher's face had become much paler.
"Master, are you feeling unwell?"
Yun Wuhen spoke upon hearing this.
"No problem. I've been reading ancient books too seriously recently. Maybe I'm tired. Master will go into seclusion after he returns. You have to take good care of yourself in the future."
Xiao Fuguang spoke with some disappointment after hearing this.
"Ah, Master, you are going to retreat. I just came back and there are still many things I need you to teach me."
Yun Wuhen spoke upon hearing this.
"You can't just focus on studying. Your family misses you too. You should stay with them for a while before coming to the Imperial Master's Mansion to study. I left some books for you in the Astrology Building."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Fuguang had no choice but to purse his lips and speak.
"Okay, then Master, please don't stay in seclusion for too long."
As the master and disciple were talking, they had already arrived at where the carriage was parked.
Yun Wuhen looked at her and spoke.
"Well, go find your mother."
Xiao Fuguang looked up at him before speaking obediently.
"Okay, then Master, go back slowly."
Yun Wuhen nodded.
"Go ahead."
Xiao Fuguang now walked towards the Xiao family's carriage.
Yun Wuhen looked at her back and said, "Fu Guang, I hope you can escape this disaster. This is all I can do as your master."
“Cough cough cough…”
Yun Wuhen covered his mouth with a handkerchief and started coughing. When he finished coughing, there was blood on the handkerchief.
Anfu on the side spoke anxiously.
"grown ups…………"
Yun Wuhen grabbed his hand anxiously.
"Don't let Fu Guang know. Let's go back home. During this time, don't let her read your fortune."
In the Xiao family carriage.
When Mrs. Xiao and Lin Qingwan saw Xiao Fuguang coming, they hurriedly waved to her.
"Fu Guang..."
Xiao Fuguang handed his hand to Lin Qingwan and prepared to climb into the carriage.
A voice came from behind.
"Princess, please wait..."
Xiao Fuguang frowned when he heard the voice and looked in the direction of the sound.
Then I saw Zhuang Linan walking towards me quickly.
"Princess, please wait, I have something I would like you to explain to me."
Xiao Fuguang did not get on the carriage in the end, but looked at Zhuang Linan calmly.
Zhuang Linan looked at her calm appearance and didn't know how to start for a moment, so she pinched the handkerchief in her hand.
"Fuguang, I want to ask you why Chuan'er hasn't come back yet. Did something happen to him?"
Xiao Fuguang frowned when he heard this.
"Zhuang Linan, Gu Chuan is from the Gu family. Anything he does has nothing to do with me. You shouldn't ask me."
After saying that, he turned around and prepared to get on the carriage.
Seeing this, Zhuang Linan anxiously reached out and grabbed her wrist.
"Wait a minute..."
"Fu Guang, no matter what, you were once a member of the Gu family, and you and Chuan'er have been married for several years..."
Xiao Fuguang looked at Zhuang Linan's hand that was holding his wrist, and his eyes suddenly turned cold.
"Let go."
Seeing this, Zhuang Linan spoke anxiously.
"Fuguang, you're so secretive. Did you develop feelings for Chuan'er when you were in the Northern Territory? Did you ask him to hide it?"
"The entire Gu family is very worried about him now. If you are still interested in him, you can come to the Gu family. I am willing to accept you."
Seeing this, Liu Yue raised his hand and slapped Zhuang Linan on the back of her hand.
"Let go, what filthy thing dares to touch my princess?"
Zhuang Linan felt pain, touched the back of her hand, and looked at Liu Yue's angry face.
“You are so outrageous…”
Liu Yue interrupted her directly.
"Shut up!"
"You murdered your own husband, seduced other people's husbands, and ruined other people's marriages. A person with a heart as vicious as you shouldn't come to my princess and disgust her. Anything about the Gu family and anyone has nothing to do with my princess. Please leave."
Then he reached out to help Xiao Fuguang.
"Princess, please get in the carriage quickly and don't disgust yourself."
Zhuang Linan watched Xiao Fuguang get on the carriage. She felt as if she would feel disgusted if he looked at her for even one more second. Her eyes were red with grievance. When had she ever been so despised by anyone?
"Xiao Fuguang..."
Liu Yue, who was sitting outside the carriage, looked at her and reminded her.
"Madam Gu, you should address our princess as Princess. This is the Protector of the Nation Princess personally appointed by the Emperor. Do you have any objection to the Emperor's decree by addressing her by her name?"
Who would dare to take such a high hat? Zhuang Linan spoke hurriedly.
"I don't!"
Then he shouted to Xiao Fuguang in the carriage.
"Princess, I just wanted to get some information from you. We've known each other for many years, so why are you being so ruthless?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Fuguang lifted the curtain of the carriage.
"Zhuang Linan, you can rest assured. I, Xiao Fuguang, will not turn back, and I don't like Gu Chuan. As for why he didn't come back, have you ever thought about why General Gu and Madam Gu are not worried at all?"
"Because they all know the reason, but they are unwilling to tell you, an outsider."
After saying that, he lowered the car curtain.
"Let's go."
Zhuang Linan watched Xiao Fuguang's carriage go away.
I wanted to ask something, but found that I shouldn't ask anything.
Seeing this, Bing'er supported Zhuang Linan and spoke.
"Young Madam, let's go back. If we go back too late, Madam might ask more questions."
In the Xiao family's carriage.
Madam Xiao asked.
"Fuguang, why hasn't Gu Chuan come back yet?"
“I haven’t heard of it either…”
Upon hearing this, Xiao Fuguang smiled and took Mrs. Xiao's hand.
"Mother, anyway, the Gu family's affairs have nothing to do with us, and we know nothing about them."
Fengyi Palace.
The Queen looked at the Prince and spoke.
"Prince, you should get closer to the princess recently and give her some interesting things. Women, as long as you coax them well, will still want a family."
The prince spoke upon hearing this.
"Mother, since the princess has no intention of marrying, we should not force her. The Imperial Master also said today that the princess is not suitable for marriage within a year."
The Queen spoke upon hearing this.
"It's not suitable for marriage, but an engagement is possible, Crown Prince. Xiao Fuguang is a resolute person with some special abilities. She can assist you in the future. When Pan'er reaches marriage age, she will come to the palace to take care of the Crown Prince's residence for you, while Fuguang can assist you in winning over the court officials. This way, you can take care of both internal and external affairs, which will be extremely helpful to your great cause."
Upon hearing this, the prince had no choice but to bow.
"Yes, I will listen to my mother."
Prince Rong's Mansion.
Prince Rong also returned to the mansion, and his aide Su Yan came to greet him.
"Your Highness."
Prince Rong nodded slightly.
Su Yan continued speaking.
"I wonder if Your Highness has obtained the imperial decree granting the marriage?"
Upon hearing this, Prince Rong spoke as he walked towards the study.
"The Emperor didn't grant us a marriage. Perhaps it's just as you said. This Xiao Fuguang is different from ordinary women. Today, the eldest prince of Beipan asked to marry her, the crown prince also wants her as a concubine, and even the fifth prince, who is always good at poetry and painting, has gotten involved."
Su Yan looked at Prince Rong who was sitting in the main seat and bowed.
"Your Highness, the more this proves that Xiao Fuguang is not a simple person, after all, she is the only disciple of the Imperial Master, and you know that the Imperial Master is originally from the Imperial Master's family. Marrying her is equivalent to making the Imperial Master's family take sides."
"And now that the Crown Prince has his eyes on her, it's best that Xiao Fuguang belongs to His Highness. If someone like her were to be with the Crown Prince, it would only hinder His Highness's great cause."
