Chapter 280 Fourth Prince, are you willing to marry Xi Meng?

"How did I deceive the emperor?"

Xi Meng was confused by Li Fanghua's words.

Shen Yinlai, who was standing next to her, heard that Xi Meng was going to be Shen Jing'an's concubine, and she couldn't help but clench her fists. She felt inexplicably uncomfortable and blocked in her heart.

"When I stayed, I didn't say I wanted to be the emperor's concubine."

Li Fanghua, "You didn't say it, but His Highness Xile said it, and you didn't say anything, but you agreed to stay. Doesn't that mean you agreed to be the emperor's concubine?"

"I..."

Xi Meng was speechless again.

Then, she suddenly glanced at Shen Yinlai beside her, and pouted: "Since it is a marriage, you can also marry someone else in the royal family. It is not only a concubine that counts as a marriage."

Hearing this, Li Fanghua narrowed her eyes, her gaze swept back and forth between Ximeng and Shen Yinlai's faces, and then she smiled, "Do you mean to marry the Fourth Prince?"

Marry the Fourth Prince...

Shen Yinlai's pupils shrank slightly, and she looked up at Ximeng who was supporting her. When Ximeng saw him looking at her, her red face became even redder, and she lowered her head in a hurry, her face, ears, and neck all red with shame.

"It seems that what this general said is right, Princess Ximeng really wants to marry the Fourth Prince as a princess."

Li Fanghua sneered.

Sure enough, she is a little girl with no prospects and no vision.

There is only love in her eyes.

"Fourth Prince, are you willing to marry Princess Ximeng?"

Li Fanghua stared at Shen Yinlai and asked.

She was of course unwilling to let Shen Yinlai marry Ximeng, because if so, Dasheng and Xizhou would still be connected, and the matter of annexing Xizhou would not be so easy to handle.

The key point is that she wanted to try this guy Shen Yinlai, so how could she let Ximeng, that idiot, take it first.

Shen Yinlai did not expect Li Fanghua to ask so directly, and for a moment he did not know how to answer.

Now it was a matter of Dasheng, not just his problem, so he could not answer directly.

If it were in the past, he would have refused without hesitation, but now, he could not be willful.

Moreover, in his heart, it seemed that there was something a little different about Ximeng.

"General Fanghua, this is the Fourth Prince's business, you don't need to be so lenient, right?"

Lin You had been listening for a while, and when he saw Shen Yin was in trouble, he stepped out to smooth things over.

It was Concubine You again, the woman who was so infuriating that she refused to forgive him.

Li Fanghua pinched her fingers, forced a smile, and looked at Lin You, "Yes, I was worrying too much."

She didn't care about the little woman and lowered her own standards.

"Princess Ximeng, this general can only help you this much, but you still have to ask some questions clearly, so as not to be let down in the future and have nowhere to cry, crying to the sky and the earth for help."

After saying the provocative words, Li Fanghua left.

Lin You looked at her arrogant look and couldn't help but grit his teeth.

"My queen."

Ximeng took Lin You's arm, tears welling up in her eyes.

Obviously, she was upset and scared by Li Fanghua.

Lin You patted her hands, then looked at Shen Yinlai, "Fourth Prince, please go with me to Yungan Palace to meet the emperor."

Shen Yinlai looked at her bright face, a complex emotion flashed in her eyes, and then followed obediently.

--

"Your Majesty, the queen is here with the fourth prince and Princess Ximeng."

Eunuch Hong informed Shen Jing'an of the news in advance.

He had heard what happened between Li Fanghua and Lin You at the palace gate just now.

So at this moment, he was still thinking about Li Fanghua having three lives, so he didn't hear what Eunuch Hong said.

Three lives, how many lives does she have left now?

"Your Majesty."

Eunuch Hong had to call again.

Only then did Shen Jing'an come back to his senses.

"What's wrong?" He asked with a frown.

As soon as he finished speaking, Lin You brought Shen Yinlai and Princess Ximeng into the courtyard.

He stood up and walked to the hall. Lin You came up a few steps, took his hand, and said in a sweet voice: "Your Majesty, I am hungry. Is lunch ready?"

"Yes, it is ready. Wash your hands and eat."

Shen Jing'an took her to the eunuch holding water and washed Lin You's hands himself. Ximeng looked at the loving appearance of the two and couldn't help looking at Shen Yinlai beside her. Her

clear eyes were full of admiration.

In the past few days, Shen Yinlai has been living in her lotus palace. She took care of him day and night. Whenever she thought of how much he suffered to save her, she felt guilty.

But at the same time, she also saw her heart clearly. There was not only guilt but also admiration.

Maybe it was there before, but she didn't see it clearly.

Now that it has been exposed, she simply stopped hiding it.

If you want to see it, then look openly.

Sensing the little girl's gaze, Shen Yinlai's body stiffened, and he stood straight without daring to move, but his cold face was hot.

He couldn't help swallowing his saliva, and Xi Meng, who was looking at him, suddenly reached out and touched his rolling Adam's apple. "What an interesting thing."

Shen Yinlai immediately stepped back as if he was electrocuted, and said coldly: "What are you doing? Men and women should not touch each other, don't you know?"

A man is not someone she, a woman, can touch casually.

"I..."

Xi Meng was frightened by his cold voice and cold face, and was a little at a loss.

"Princess Ximeng, come and have dinner. Don't pay attention to him. He is just an iceberg. He treats everyone like this."

Lin You just cleaned his hands and saw Ximeng was attacked. He glared at Shen Yinlai fiercely, and then led Ximeng to the dining table.

Shen Jingan watched silently, waited to sit down, and saw Shen Yinlai still standing, then he opened his lips calmly, "Fourth brother, are you not going to have dinner?"

"Yes."

Shen Yinlai hurried to the table.

He didn't want to stand there stupidly and watch the three of them eat like he did last time.

These meals were all special dishes made by the emperor's brother for Concubine You Gui. Each one was extremely tempting and he couldn't miss it.

Ximeng picked up a dish for him and said weakly: "I'm sorry just now."

Shen Yinlai was slightly stunned, and then picked up a piece of meat for her, "It was my own recklessness."

Hearing this, Ximeng's eyes suddenly flashed with a smile, and her eyes stared at Shen Yinlai with sparkling eyes.

So, Shen Yinlai didn't blame her?

[Tsk tsk, this little girl really fell in love with Shen Yinlai! ]

Lin You ate while looking at the two boys and girls.

[System, tell me, are these two a good match?]

[They are quite a match, but their relationship seems to be more bumpy. 】

Shen Yinlai and Ximeng were both stunned when they heard what the system said.

Lin You was attracted by the topic and didn't pay attention to them, [Oh, how is it so complicated?]

System [I don't know, but there are some twists and turns after all. 】

This sentence confused Ximeng and Shen Yinlai's hearts.

No, she won't have any twists and turns. She is the most beloved princess of the Emperor Father and the Emperor Mother, and her brother has returned to the Western Zhou Dynasty. Her brother will definitely become the crown prince of the Western Zhou Dynasty. By then, she can have whatever she wants.

A marriage is over, what twists and turns will there be!
