Seeing Chu Feiyang appear at the gate of Prince Chen's Mansion like a ghost, Jiang Muchen instinctively tensed up and was in a state of high tension and alert. In an instant, he brushed aside the bride's bridesmaid and stretched out his long arms to embrace the bride covered with the wedding veil. Then he looked coldly at Chu Feiyang, whose eyes were cold and icy. A voice like the twilight snow on the thousands of mountains slowly rang out, "What do you mean by this, Prime Minister Chu? Since you have come to congratulate me on marrying my concubine, why are you shooting cold arrows in the middle of the wedding hall? Are you bullying me because there is no one in Prince Chen's Mansion?"
Watching Jiang Muchen's series of actions, which pretended to be calm but were actually extremely nervous, Chu Feiyang couldn't help but narrow his eyes slightly. Then, the cold voice of a thousand-year-old iceberg slowly penetrated the ears of every guest, "I don't know why the prince overlooked me! On such a festive day, the prince was so stingy that he didn't even offer a glass of wine. It's really chilling. Could it be that the bride has a secret that the prince wants to avoid me?"
After he finished speaking, everyone saw Chu Feiyang quickly dismount from his horse, and then he stepped into the gate of Prince Chen's Mansion with a chill all over his body, and walked steadily into the wedding hall!
"Since Prime Minister Chu has come in person to congratulate us, Prince Chen's Mansion naturally cannot neglect it! Come, show Prime Minister Chu a seat!" Concubine Yuande naturally also noticed Jiang Muchen's unusual expression. Although she was full of doubts in her heart, in front of so many dignitaries, even if she suffered a great injustice, Concubine Yuande would definitely not reveal her true emotions in front of outsiders!
Especially at this moment, seeing that Chu Feiyang came with bad intentions, and there seemed to be a hidden tension between her son and Chu Feiyang, she wanted to prevent the Prince Chen's Mansion from becoming a laughing stock in Kyoto tomorrow. Even though she hated Chu Feiyang in her heart, Concubine Yuande was polite and asked the servants to lead Chu Feiyang to sit at the front table!
"Thank you for your kindness, Concubine Dowager! However, I just hurried here from Luo City, and I can only give this flying arrow as a wedding gift to the prince and the concubine. I hope that the prince and the concubine will forgive me and order the servants in the palace to make up the gift!" Chu Feiyang was not polite at all. He threw back the hem of his clothes and sat down immediately. Then he picked up the wine glass in front of him and put it to his nose to smell it carefully three times. Only then did a faint smile appear on the corner of his mouth. He said in a slightly cold voice, "The Chen Palace is really a good place. Even this fine wine is much more fragrant than other places! It seems that the prince and the concubine know how to enjoy it! I believe that this concubine today must be a stunning woman who surpasses all the beauties. Otherwise, how could she have caught the prince's eye?"
Listening to Chu Feiyang's irrelevant words, Jiang Muchen and Concubine Yuande frowned slightly, feeling that there was something else behind Chu Feiyang's words, and that he had an unfathomable mind!
"Since Prime Minister Chu has come uninvited, then just watch the ceremony. Don't delay the good time between me and my concubine!" Compared to Concubine Yuande, Jiang Muchen was much clearer in his mind!
Chu Feiyang's coincidental appearance this time was probably like a weasel paying a New Year's visit to a chicken - he had no good intentions, especially since he kept talking about the word "concubine" every other sentence. It was obvious that he had received the news and came here for Yun Qianmeng!
However, after planning carefully for so long, how could I let Chu Feiyang take the person in my arms so easily?
Even if Chu Feiyang had such an idea, in front of so many guests, would he really have the courage to snatch someone away on the spot and risk being insulted and accused of stealing someone else's wife?
Thinking of this, Jiang Muchen's overly tense heartstrings relaxed a little. Looking at the guards who had already been arranged around him, he was afraid that even if Chu Feiyang was a martial arts master, he would not be able to do it with Yun Qianmeng!
"Watch the ceremony? I seem to have heard the word 'the ceremony is over' at the door of Prince Chen's Mansion just now! Could it be that the prince intends to worship heaven and earth again with the concubine in order to let me watch the ceremony?" The light in those bottomless black eyes flickered slightly, and instantly shot towards the bride who was tightly held in Jiang Muchen's arms. Chu Feiyang stared at the bride with her face covered with a smile, and people could not guess what kind of emotions were hidden in his flickering eyes!
However, this scene became a threat and provocation in Jiang Muchen's eyes, especially the look in Chu Feiyang's eyes when he looked at the person in his arms, which was full of unspeakable tenderness, making Jiang Muchen feel unprecedented pressure. He felt that Chu Feiyang would definitely not come to congratulate him today. The arm that was hugging the bride's slender waist tightened again and again, making the delicate body in his arms stick tightly to his side, not giving her any chance to leave his side!
Looking at Jiang Muchen's nervous and cautious expression, Chu Feiyang smiled. The light in his eyes sparkled like the finest gems, which instantly added a different look to the Prince Chen's Mansion, which was decorated with lights and full of joy!
The guests' eyes kept wandering over these two equally outstanding men, not understanding what they were talking about!
However, when everyone saw the nervous and alert look on Prince Chen's face, and Chu Feiyang's precisely timed appearance, they couldn't help but secretly wonder, could it be that these two were jealous of each other for the daughter of the richest man?
However, the scene of Chu Feiyang kneeling down to ask for permission to marry a few months ago was still vivid in people's minds. It seemed a bit unreasonable to say that he and Prince Chen were glaring at each other for a woman other than the eldest daughter of Prime Minister Yun's Mansion!
What's more, his fiancée is still in prison. If he really rushed here from Luo City just for the daughter of the richest man, he would be a heartless person. He can only blame Yun Qianmeng for her miserable life. She was previously broken off the engagement by Prince Chen, and now she has been forgotten by Prime Minister Chu. And now these two people are competing against each other for the daughter of a businessman. This is simply a slap in the face of Yun Qianmeng. It can be seen that if a woman lives to Yun Qianmeng's situation, she is really pitiful and miserable!
Watching the scene, everyone couldn't help but sigh in their hearts. They could only blame Yun Qianmeng for not having a marriage destiny. Two such good marriages had been cut short just like that! This time, the Yun Xiang Mansion should have been in trouble sooner or later, but it had to happen at this critical moment. It could only be said that God didn't want Yun Qianmeng to have an easy time!
Although everyone sympathized with Yun Qianmeng's situation, they reminded themselves that such a woman should never be married into the family, otherwise it would only bring shame!
"In that case, please have your meal in peace, Prime Minister Chu!" Jiang Muchen was already furious when he saw Chu Feiyang's unreasonable behavior. However, thinking that Yun Qianmeng would be his from now on and had nothing to do with him, Chu Feiyang, Jiang Muchen couldn't help but feel proud. After tonight, Yun Qianmeng would be lying under him. Even if Chu Feiyang committed suicide by slitting his throat, this fact would not change!
After he finished speaking, Jiang Muchen hugged the person next to him tightly and walked towards the backyard!
As Concubine Yuande watched her son about to leave, the worry that had been hanging in her heart for a long time gradually eased. However, her shrewd eyes were still staring vigilantly at Chu Feiyang, who was drinking and chatting happily with Prince Duan, for fear that the always unpredictable Chu Feiyang would come up with some new tricks!
"Your Highness, please stay!" Little did he know that what he feared would come true!
Chu Feiyang was still communicating with Prince Duan the moment before, but the next second he called out to stop Prince Chen, then stood up gracefully with a wine glass in his hand amidst everyone's puzzled gazes, and left his seat and slowly walked towards the wedding hall under Jiang Muchen's wary eyes!
"I arrived late today and missed the wedding of the prince and the concubine. It was really my mistake! Therefore, I would like to offer three glasses of wine to the prince and the concubine. One is to congratulate you, and the other is to apologize! I believe the prince will not refuse!" Chu Feiyang walked towards Jiang Muchen with a cold breath. There was a coldness in his smiling eyes, but his voice was gentle and polite, so that everyone who could only see his tall figure did not notice the change in Chu Feiyang's expression!
However, Jiang Muchen, who was face to face with Chu Feiyang, saw it clearly. He felt that the look Chu Feiyang shot at him was as sharp as a thousand arrows piercing his heart. The slightly raised corner of his mouth revealed an extremely cold smile. With that strong momentum, he rushed straight towards him!
However, now that the matter is done, even if Chu Feiyang is very imposing, Jiang Muchen will not give in, especially when he feels the soft and boneless body of the person in his arms. After hearing Chu Feiyang's proposal, she trembled slightly, which made Jiang Muchen's idea even more firm!
Since Chu Feiyang is so determined and wants to see the bride's face, I will fulfill his wish and see how he reacts!
Thinking of this, Jiang Muchen felt a little restless in his heart, and he couldn't wait to see how Chu Feiyang would collapse and go crazy when he saw Yun Qianmeng's face!
"Someone, bring some wine!" The order made Concubine Yuande's heart jump suddenly!
She was sitting high up in the hall, so naturally she saw Chu Feiyang's dangerous expression. Especially today, Chu Feiyang's behavior was too strange, which made people alert and even fearful. But Chen'er was so impatient that she was angered by Chu Feiyang in just a few words and fell into his trap!
Besides, how could a bride lift her veil and drink in front of the guests right after the wedding ceremony? This is not only against etiquette, but also taboo!
Thinking of this, Concubine Yuande became even more dissatisfied with this daughter-in-law she had yet to meet. If it weren't for this beautiful woman, how could her usually calm son lose control like this? But now, in front of so many guests, and with Prince Chen's status, if Concubine Yuande tried to stop him, she would only be offending Prince Chen's reputation, causing a rift between mother and son, and wouldn't that be a good thing for this bitch?
Her delicate brows couldn't help but frown slightly, and Concubine Yuande waved her hand for Nanny Jiang to come forward and support the bride!
Nanny Jiang understood and quietly walked to the bride's side, using her body to block most of the guests' curious gazes!
"Your Highness is truly a straightforward person! I will punish myself by drinking three cups first!" Seeing that Jiang Muchen couldn't wait to attack him, Chu Feiyang curled up the corners of his mouth, raised his head and quickly drank three cups of fine wine. Then, he held the wine glass with his slender fingers and turned the cup down, telling Jiang Muchen that he had already finished three cups and now it was their turn!
Watching Chu Feiyang finish three glasses of wine at an extremely fast speed, Jiang Muchen took the wine glass from the maid's hand and drank all three glasses of wine. Then he asked the maid to pour another shallow glass of wine and carefully placed it in the little hand that was already oozing with cold sweat. He leaned over and whispered in the bride's ear through the red veil, "Meng'er, don't be afraid. Drink this glass of wine and you will be my concubine!"
But the bride in his arms trembled even more violently after hearing his words, as if she was very afraid of having her veil lifted. The hand holding the wine glass was shaking non-stop. Even though it was only half a glass of wine, she spilled most of it. Chu Feiyang couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, and then asked coldly, "Is the Concubine sick? Why are you shaking so violently?"
However, in Jiang Muchen's eyes, all this was just Yun Qianmeng's fear of facing Chu Feiyang. Such a reaction was all reasonable and logical, making Jiang Muchen even more proud. He hugged the bride's hands and said softly, "Don't be afraid. Prime Minister Chu is just toasting and won't do anything out of line! Besides, I'm here and I will definitely not let you suffer any injustice!"
But it was Prince Chen's repeated consolations that made the bride even more frightened. Her whole body began to tremble, and her delicate head covered with a red veil began to shake in fear, as if she was very resistant to drinking!
"My Lord, our concubine must be tired. Let me help her back to the backyard to rest!" Seeing this strange scene, a trace of doubt flashed across Nanny Jiang's eyes. It was just that Prince Chen spoke to the concubine in too low a voice. Even though she held her breath and listened, she still didn't hear a word!
However, if this concubine were to be embarrassed in front of everyone, it would be better to take her back to the backyard first, so as not to let her lose face for Prince Chen's Mansion in front of everyone!
After saying this, Nanny Jiang was about to reach out to support the bride, but was blocked by Prince Chen. Prince Chen's face was cold and he said in a cold voice, "Nanny Jiang, just serve your mother well! As for the concubine's affairs, I will arrange for the maid to serve!"
As he spoke, Prince Chen hugged the bride in his arms even tighter!
Chu Feiyang glanced at Nanny Jiang calmly at this moment, and said with a hint of danger, "Nanny, are you not going to give me face? Don't you think I have the right to offer wine to the Concubine?"
With just one sentence, Nanny Jiang immediately fell silent and never dared to speak again!
Although the bride will be the concubine of Prince Chen from now on, a concubine is always a concubine. If she were in an ordinary family, she would just be a concubine!
What's more, this concubine is of humble origin and has not yet received the seal of concubine bestowed by the emperor. I am afraid that apart from the favor of Prince Chen, she has no other power or status to rely on!
If she were to leave Prince Chen, this woman would be nothing. Not to mention getting a toast from Chu Feiyang, even if she wanted to become a slave in Prime Minister Chu's residence, the Prime Minister would still not be willing!
And Nanny Jiang would naturally not offend Chu Feiyang, who was deeply trusted by Emperor Yugan, for such a woman!
What's more, in an occasion like today, as a servant in Prince Chen's Mansion, I can't say anything against Chu Feiyang and lose face for Concubine Yuande!
Seeing that Nanny Jiang had calmed down, Chu Feiyang curled his lips and sneered, then turned his attention to the bride who was tightly held in Jiang Muchen's arms, and slowly said, "Since the Concubine is not feeling well, drink this glass of wine as soon as possible and go back to rest, so as not to catch a cold in this cold winter!"
The bride thought she had escaped danger after hearing Chu Feiyang's first words, but when Chu Feiyang finished speaking, her heart sank to the bottom of the valley. Jiang Muchen's gentle words of persuasion kept coming to her ears. She could only slowly raise the wine glass with one hand and gradually lift a corner of the veil with the other hand, revealing her bright red lips. She trembled and brought the rim of the wine glass to her lips...
However, the hand holding the wine glass was shaking violently the whole time, so she didn't drink the wine, but instead accidentally spilled it all on her face. She accidentally inhaled a few drops of wine into her nose, which made her feel uncomfortable and she immediately lowered her head and started coughing violently. At this time, the veil that was originally covering her head slowly slid to the ground as she bent down, leaving her no time to catch it!
A beautiful face that did not belong to Yun Qianmeng immediately caught Chu Feiyang's eyes. Looking at the pale and panicked woman in front of him, Chu Feiyang glanced at Nanny Jiang's dumbfounded expression, and the smile on his face became even deeper!
This familiar face made everyone understand that the one Prince Chen married was not the daughter of the richest man in Jiangcheng, but Yun Ruoxue, the second daughter of Yun Xuanzhi who should be imprisoned in the Ministry of Justice at this moment!
Everyone was frightened by this sudden scene, staring at Yun Ruoxue who quickly covered her face with her hands. They immediately started whispering to each other and finally understood why the so-called richest man in Jiangcheng was not seen in this hall!
I originally thought that Yun Ruoxue couldn't enter Prince Chen's Mansion because of her status as the richest man in Jiangcheng. Now I understand that this was all a trick of Prince Chen. He fabricated an identity as the daughter of the richest man in Jiangcheng for Yun Ruoxue, and then rescued Yun Ruoxue from the Ministry of Justice prison and married her as a concubine!
And through this incident, everyone seemed to understand. No wonder Prince Chen had tried every possible means to cancel the marriage of the eldest daughter of Prime Minister Yun's Mansion. It turned out that it was all for the second daughter!
But, can’t King Chen tell the difference between fish eyes and pearls?
How could Yun Ruoxue's status be compared to Yun Qianmeng's? Even if Yun Qianmeng no longer pleased him, there was no need for him to cancel his marriage with his legitimate daughter for the sake of a concubine's daughter!
I just can’t figure it out. I just can’t figure it out. This King Chen usually looks like he doesn’t want anyone to come near him. It’s really hard to guess what he’s thinking!
However, what happened today was too shocking. Not to mention who Prince Chen married, Yun Ruoxue was still a wanted criminal of the court. He actually switched her. If Emperor Yugan knew about it, even Prince Chen would not be able to protect Yun Ruoxue!
"Your Highness..." Nanny Jiang was so frightened that she couldn't speak when she saw Yun Ruoxue in front of her. No wonder the prince didn't let the concubine get close to the yard these days. It turned out that Yun Ruoxue was hiding in it!
Thinking of Yun Ruoxue's current identity, Nanny Jiang's face suddenly became ugly, and she immediately winked at Concubine Yuande. Although Concubine Yuande did not see the woman's face, she had already guessed from everyone's expressions that something might have changed. She immediately stood up from her seat and walked towards Yun Ruoxue hurriedly. Without saying a word, she forcefully turned Yun Ruoxue's body over and had someone pull off her hands that were covering her face. Concubine Yuande's face suddenly turned ashen!
"You..." Jiang Muchen was patting the bride's back and did not notice the expressions of Nanny Jiang and the others until Concubine Yuande unexpectedly came over and pulled down Yun Ruoxue's hands. Only then did he realize that the person he was carefully caring for was not Yun Qianmeng. He was speechless for a moment!
"Oh, isn't this the Second Miss? How did she suddenly become the daughter of the richest man in Jiangcheng and marry Prince Chen as a concubine? Does Prime Minister Yun know about this? Such an important event in life must be decided by the parents and the matchmaker. I wonder if the prince has gone to Prime Minister Yun's residence to ask for the bride price, the name, the good news, the betrothal gift, and the date? Don't let the Second Miss down!" Looking at Jiang Muchen's face, which was mixed with black and white, Chu Feiyang spoke in a relaxed tone!
Jiang Muchen is now evaluating Chu Feiyang as someone who is afraid of chaos in the world!
However, he clearly watched Yun Qianmeng get into the bridal sedan. Why did his bride become Yun Ruoxue in just a short time?
Where was the real Yun Qianmeng? What were Ning Feng and the others doing? They couldn't even keep an eye on a powerless woman!
Wasn't Yun Ruoxue still in the prison of the Ministry of Justice? Why did she appear before him now, dressed in a wedding dress? Was this matter related to Su Yuan?
A flood of questions flooded into King Chen's mind, and his expression became uglier and uglier as time went by!
His sharp eyes swept over the wedding dress on Yun Ruoxue, and his dark face turned as pale as snow in an instant. This wedding dress was chosen by him personally for Yun Qianmeng. No one was more familiar with every gold thread and every pattern on it than him. Seeing this wedding dress being worn on Yun Ruoxue, Jiang Muchen was immediately furious. He stretched out his hand and pushed Yun Ruoxue hard on the back!
When Yun Ruoxue saw that her affairs had been discovered, and that Concubine Yuande and Prince Chen both looked as if they wanted to eat her alive, she was so frightened that she could not speak. Even her legs, which had managed to keep her from falling, were trembling!
But at this moment, he was completely defenseless and was pushed by King Chen's hands, which were filled with internal energy. The whole person immediately flew towards the incense table on the high hall...
"Crash..." All the fruits and wine on the incense table were scattered to the ground, and Yun Ruoxue's body hit the table hard, rolling on it, and then bounced back from the wall and fell straight to the ground. She rolled on the ground for several times before lying on the ground and spitting out a mouthful of blood in pain...
"You plotted against me!" King Chen didn't even bother to look at Yun Ruoxue's miserable condition. Instead, he turned around and stared at Chu Feiyang with gloomy eyes, questioning him in a cold voice!
Facing the cold and frosty Prince Chen, all the guests showed fear on their faces. Only Chu Feiyang smiled at this time and asked softly, "Prince, don't push your disappointment onto others! I just came back from Luocheng. When I heard that the prince was getting married today, I rushed over to congratulate him. How could such a thing happen? Even if I wanted to intervene at this time, I didn't have time to prepare for all this! Besides, the guards of Prince Chen's Mansion are highly skilled in martial arts and the security of Prince Chen's Mansion is so strict. The prince himself never suspected the person he just hugged. How could I know that this concubine was actually the second lady of the Yun family? I just discovered this fact by accident! But I didn't expect that the prince would be so angry and put all the faults on me. Such anger on others, the prince's behavior is really chilling!"
Chu Feiyang seemed to be in a very good mood at this moment. He asked such a long string of rhetorical questions for the first time, which made everyone dizzy. However, Jiang Muchen's eyes suddenly showed murderous intent. His hands under his sleeves clenched into fists, and he wished he could punch Chu Feiyang's smiling face hard!
"Chu Feiyang, who else could be involved in this matter except you? Do you think that you can clear the suspicion with just a few words of rebuttal? Tell me, where did you hide Meng'er?" Taking a step forward, Prince Chen and Chu Feiyang were face to face, one with a fierce look, the other with a rosy face, but the two pairs of eyes that also contained a storm were staring at each other without dodging. The contest between them could be strongly felt even by the guests outside the wedding hall. Seeing that not only Prince Chen was accused of marrying the wrong concubine, but Chu Feiyang and the Yun Xiang Mansion were also involved, everyone stood up at the same time and left Prince Chen's Mansion quietly while the host was too busy to deal with them!
Facing Jiang Muchen's aggressiveness, Chu Feiyang sneered, and then said in a cold voice, "This is exactly what I want to ask the prince! During the time I was away from Kyoto, I didn't expect that the prince had done so many things, and even wanted to force Meng'er to remarry you. It's really despicable! I came here this time to ask the prince for my fiancée. If the prince doesn't give an explanation, don't blame me for turning my face and refusing to recognize you! Changqing!" After speaking, Chu Feiyang ordered Qu Changqing who was standing outside the Chen Palace, "Pass on my order, surround the Chen Palace immediately, I want to see how long the prince can hide it!"
"Chu Feiyang, you dare!" At this time, Concubine Yuande suddenly shouted!
After watching the scene for a long time and listening to the conversation between Chu Feiyang and her son about how much she loved him, Concubine Yuande had already understood. She was afraid that everything her son did was for Yun Qianmeng!
This was truly a great shame and humiliation. They were the ones who asked Emperor Yugan to cancel the engagement, and now their own son wanted to force Yun Qianmeng to marry her even though she was already engaged, and even had Chu Feiyang come to their house to ask for her!
Such humiliation has already made Concubine Yuande furious. Now, a left prime minister dared to send troops to surround the prince's mansion. If this matter were to spread, not only would the reputation of Prince Chen be completely ruined, but it would also immediately upset the people, which would be extremely detrimental to future events!
"Dowager Concubine, unless the prince hands over Meng'er, you can give it a try and see if I, Chu Feiyang, dare!" The long sword was unsheathed, and Chu Feiyang stood in front of everyone like a single man blocking a thousand enemies. His face was as gloomy as water, and his eyes were full of anger. The long sword in his hand emitted a chilling chill under the sunlight, which scared the maids in Prince Chen's mansion away. Even Dowager Concubine Yuande turned pale. She never expected that Chu Feiyang would be so rebellious!
"Ning Feng!" At this time, Prince Chen also gave orders to his guards. A long sword was thrown in the air. Ning Feng had already fallen out of the guards of Prince Chen's Mansion and was confronting Qu Changqing's men at the gate of Prince Chen's Mansion!
"The imperial edict has arrived!" At this time, a shrill voice came from the door. After a while, Eunuch Yu beside Emperor Yugan walked quickly into Prince Chen's Mansion!
When he saw Chu Feiyang and Jiang Muchen facing each other with swords, a trace of astonishment flashed across his eyes. He then turned to look at Concubine Yuande, only to see that her face was gloomy and her expression was extremely angry. She immediately stepped forward and saluted to the few people, "Greetings to Concubine Yuande, Prince, and Prime Minister Chu!"
"How come Eunuch Yu has time to come to Prince Chen's Mansion today? Did he hear that Prince Chen is going to marry a concubine and come to congratulate him?" Chu Feiyang's expression instantly turned from gloomy to bright, and his expression changed as fast as turning the pages of a book. Even Concubine Yuande, who was well versed in this, was secretly surprised by Chu Feiyang's sudden change. She felt that Chu Feiyang was really unpredictable, and it was hard to tell what he was planning in his heart!
But just as he finished speaking, he saw Jiang Muchen glaring at Chu Feiyang with anger on his face, as if blaming him for being too talkative!
However, how many of the things that happened in Kyoto could escape the eyes of Emperor Yugan?
Especially since Jiang Muchen is a prince. How could a prince get married without the emperor knowing?
Therefore, when Eunuch Yu heard Chu Feiyang's question, his expression did not change too much, and he just bowed to Prince Chen and Concubine Yuande and congratulated them, "Congratulations, Your Highness!"
After he finished speaking, he looked at Chu Feiyang again and said with a smile, "The Emperor knew that the Prime Minister had returned from Luocheng, so he ordered me to pass on the oral order, asking the Prime Minister to lead the top three candidates, Yun Yiheng, Han Che, and Kong Fan, to the palace to meet him!"
Hearing this, Chu Feiyang raised an eyebrow, glanced at Jiang Muchen with interest, and said with a smile, "Eunuch Yu, this imperial edict should be addressed to the prince! As far as I know, Han Che and Kong Fan are currently guests at Prince Chen's residence! As for Yun Yiheng, he is in the Ministry of Justice's prison! Why did the emperor ask you to convey the imperial edict to me?"
Eunuch Yu glanced at the sinister Prince Chen, his heart tightening slightly, and he said to Chu Feiyang, "The Emperor's will is not something a lowly person like me can guess! Since Scholar Han and Scholar Kong are both in the palace, please let them come out and accompany me to the palace to see the Emperor!"
"The emperor really knows how to choose the time! The king and Prime Minister Chu had something to talk about, and the emperor sent the eunuch here!" However, Jiang Muchen glanced coldly at the smiling eunuch Yu, and then spoke in an extremely sarcastic tone!
"Your Highness, please ask Mr. Han and Mr. Kong to come out quickly, so as not to make the Emperor wait anxiously!" Pretending not to understand the sarcasm in Jiang Muchen's words, Eunuch Yu lowered his head and spoke, but there was a hint of toughness in his tone!
"Ning Feng, bring those two up!" But Jiang Muchen didn't have any extra thoughts to care about what was happening in front of him. Yun Qianmeng's face kept appearing in his mind. He couldn't understand why a living person disappeared inexplicably. He was annoyed, but what made him even more angry was that Chu Feiyang made such a fool of himself!
Intuitively, Jiang Muchen still believed that Chu Feiyang had done something in secret and switched Yun Qianmeng and Yun Ruoxue halfway!
Seeing King Chen giving the order, Ning Feng put away the sword in his hand and quickly walked towards the North Garden. In less than half a cup of tea, he brought Han Che and Kong Fan to Eunuch Yu!
"In that case, then this old servant will take his leave! Lord Prime Minister, let's go, don't keep the emperor waiting anxiously!" Eunuch Yu glanced at Han Che and Kong Fan in front of him with shrewd eyes, nodded secretly, and then spoke to Chu Feiyang!
"Eunuch, please take them to the carriage first. I will come over after talking to the prince for a few words!" However, Chu Feiyang's eyes were fixed on Jiang Muchen in front of him, and he lightly instructed Eunuch Yu to leave first!
Looking at the tense atmosphere of the two people in front of him, Eunuch Yu nodded and led Han Che and Kong Fan to the gate of Prince Chen's Mansion!
As they passed by each other, Han Che raised his eyes to glance at Chu Feiyang. He felt that this man had a strong aura and a calm and unfathomable expression that made people tremble in their hearts. But only a man like this could win the top spot in both civil and military examinations in one fell swoop!
"Your Highness, please think carefully about where you hid my Meng'er! Changqing, you stay and assist Prince Chen. If you know the whereabouts of Meng'er, protect her immediately! Remember, don't use other people's hands!" After speaking, Chu Feiyang turned around and walked towards the gate of Prince Chen's Mansion, leaving Qu Changqing with a solemn face, guarding outside the dead silent Prince Chen's Mansion!
"Someone, close the door!" Seeing that Chu Feiyang didn't take the people in Prince Chen's Mansion seriously at all, Concubine Yuande's anger had reached its peak. When she saw Chu Feiyang stepping out of the threshold of Prince Chen's Mansion, she immediately shouted an order!
Seeing that Concubine Yuande was angry and Prince Chen was on the verge of anger, Ning Feng immediately ordered people to close the door, and he himself stayed inside the door to prevent Qu Changqing from making any other moves!
"You are really getting more and more promising. For Yun Qianmeng, you have completely lost the face of the Chen Palace! Do you know how many eyes have witnessed this farce today? You actually did such a thing behind my back, and even let Chu Feiyang come to ask for his fiancée! Jiang Muchen, you really disappoint your mother. Don't forget that you are the prince of the late emperor. Your words and deeds represent the royal family. As a prince, you have all kinds of women that you can't have. For Yun Qianmeng, you actually risked the world's condemnation and released Yun Qianmeng from the Ministry of Justice Prison, and even changed her to a new identity! You are really my good son, have you forgotten... "Have you forgotten how hard we've worked over the years? Are you doing this so that Emperor Yugan can find something to hold against us? Chen'er, what's so good about Yun Qianmeng? You've lost your mind to this point, have you ever really considered your own future? Do you want to see your mother die at the hands of the Queen Mother and others before you wake up?" Concubine Yuande was extremely angry at this time, but she was also overwhelmed with grief. Seeing her son become a laughing stock today, her heart was also painful. The tears she had been trying to hold back eventually gave way, and they dripped down in strings. Concubine Yuande, crying so bitterly, was completely different from the arrogant and cold imperial concubine in the past!
Seeing the bitterness in Concubine Yuande's heart, Nanny Jiang stepped forward to support her. Looking at Prince Chen, whose expression remained unchanged, she said earnestly, "Your Highness, the Concubine is your biological mother. How could she have any intention of harming you? Now that you have done such a thing, the Concubine does not blame you, but instead shows concern for your situation. How can you not be moved in the slightest?"
Prince Chen just glanced at Concubine Yuande who was crying alone, with a hint of sneer in his eyes. This was a common trick in the palace, he had seen it since he was a child, how could he not tell whether Concubine Yuande's tears were real or fake?
He turned around and walked towards the door, but someone grabbed his clothes. He frowned and looked down, only to see Yun Ruoxue, whose face was pale, pulling his clothes with great effort, looking at him with tears in her eyes!
"Get lost!" Seeing Yun Ruoxue impersonating Yun Qianmeng, Jiang Muchen felt a wave of nausea. This woman was truly shameless. She actually dared to tease him in front of everyone! He had already done her a great favor by not killing her immediately, yet she actually dared to block his way!
But Yun Ruoxue held her lower lip tightly, endured the severe pain in her body, and knelt in front of Prince Chen, crying, "Prince, I am your concubine. How can you abandon me on your wedding day!"
These words were extremely bold. When King Chen pushed his palms towards Yun Ruoxue, he had already denied her identity. But now Yun Ruoxue was bringing up something that was not relevant. She really wanted to anger King Chen!
However, the expected fury did not appear on Prince Chen's face. He only looked down calmly at Yun Ruoxue, who was kneeling at his feet, and said coldly, "Concubine? Are you worthy? Ning Feng, drag her away and put her back in the Ministry of Justice. When we find Meng'er, I will settle this account with you and Su Yuan!"
After saying that, he kicked Yun Ruoxue in the heart!
How could Yun Ruoxue, a delicate young lady, withstand the powerful kick from Prince Chen? She immediately fell backwards, spitting out blood from her mouth and fainted. Seeing this, Ning Feng ordered two guards to drag Yun Ruoxue out of Prince Chen's mansion!
Concubine Yuande looked at her son who was increasingly talking nonstop, and the tears in her eyes instantly froze into ice. She stared at Prince Chen's back with her eyes slightly narrowed, but silently recited Yun Qianmeng's name in her heart!
At this time, there was laughter and joy in the Prince of Chu's Mansion!
"Miss, this wedding dress is the most exquisite. It will surely make you look dignified and beautiful when you wear it!" Mu Chun held a bright red wedding dress with gold edges in her hand and recommended it to Yun Qianmeng with a smile!
"No! I think this one is the best. The auspicious dragon and phoenix pattern on it is most suitable for the young lady to wear when she gets married to the prime minister! Young lady, you should get up and try it on! There is still some time now. Even if it doesn't fit, we still have time to modify it!" Yingxia held up another wedding dress and walked in front of Yun Qianmeng, squeezing away Mu Chun who was occupying Yun Qianmeng's sight, so that she could see the one in her hand clearly!
"Miss, don't listen to Yingxia, the one I have is the best!" Mu Chun pouted and complained when she was pushed away by Yingxia. Just as she was about to rush over, she saw someone walking into the Prime Minister Chu's Mansion from outside the door.
