Jiang Chulu could only curse Ling Xiangyi and Princess Mingyue in her heart while outwardly appearing willing.
The innocent Princess Mingyue wouldn't think so much; she only knew that her dream had come true and the person she loved was willing to marry her.
…
Wan Ge felt that she had solved the problem, and her mood improved a lot. She was very happy when she returned to her palace.
"Your Majesty seems very happy?" A sudden voice appeared, startling Wan Ge. The other person had appeared beside her silently without her noticing.
"Regent... Regent, what are you doing here?" He was in the Emperor's palace, and this guy dared to trespass on the Emperor's palace. He knew that this guy had ulterior motives and wanted to take away his throne as soon as possible.
"Regent? Does His Majesty no longer even want to call me 'Brother Emperor'?" Yan Yunjing approached her step by step.
Wan Ge subconsciously took a step back, sensing the fear this body felt towards the Regent, and tried her best to suppress it.
However, the other party's aura was indeed very strong, and Wan Ge actually felt a little intimidated.
"Your Majesty... what do you want to do?" Why am I afraid of him?
Yan Yunjing reached out and pinched his chin: "Your Majesty would even harm your own sister's reputation just to steal my wife?"
Everyone knows how much the emperor dotes on Princess Mingyue, but in order to seize a minister's wife, he even disregarded his own sister. He could have done it in private, but he chose to do it in public, just to give that woman a more legitimate reason.
"What?" Wan Ge seemed a little confused: "What do you mean by 'I'm trying to steal your wife'... steal whom?"
"Oh right, they are not married yet, and Your Majesty has not yet taken away my wife. But do you like her so much? You even disregard Mingyue."
I'm so jealous. Why can't I be a woman? Why can't he like me?
"No, I didn't!" Wan Ge seemed to realize that the other party must have misunderstood that she liked Ling Xiangyi. What a huge misunderstanding! Although she did have a group of female leads, it wasn't a matter of liking or disliking them!
"Don't like her, like me instead, okay?" Yan Yunjing pinched her chin and kissed her directly.
Wan Ge was shocked by his words and before she could react, she was shocked again when he kissed her.
However, she didn't resist it and she realized that he seemed to be the person she was looking for, but she wasn't so sure.
Wan Ge blinked and met the other person's aggressive gaze.
Yan Yun Jing was genuinely angry and jealous, but the moment he saw the other person blink, he thought to himself, "How can my Emperor be so adorable?"
I really want to take him home, hide him away, and make him belong only to him, so that his emperor will never like anyone else.
After a while, Wan Ge gently pushed the person away: "You...you're being insolent!"
Yan Yunjing immediately picked him up and said, "This humble subject can be even more presumptuous."
Wan Ge actually wanted to verify it. She was very sure that if the other person wasn't him, she would definitely resist if he wanted to take it to the next step. In fact, she already felt that it was him.
But why did that sense of familiarity disappear when I got close to him? And I couldn't even detect my own markings; I had always thought he was his person.
But just then, a voice came from outside the door: "Your Majesty, Lord Jiang requests an audience!"
Her father-in-law's voice drifted into the room, but Wan Ge still pushed him away.
"I still need to see Lord Jiang, Your Majesty, why don't you return first?"
After Wan Ge finished speaking, she walked straight to the door. Yan Yunjing secretly vowed that he would kill this Lord Jiang sooner or later.
…
Wan Ge went to the Imperial Study and met Lord Jiang, who had come to see her. She was not surprised at all to see that the Minister of Rites was also Jiang Chuluo's father.
"Your Majesty, should we reconsider the marriage between the princess and my son?"
Wan Ge snorted coldly: "What? You think Princess Mingyue is not good enough for your son?"
"Your Majesty, I dare not, but... but there must be something fishy about this matter. I beg Your Majesty to clear my son's name!" Lord Jiang said, his voice trembling with grievance, as if he had truly suffered a great injustice.
If she hadn't known the other party, Wan Ge would have been deceived: "It was your son who admitted that he and Princess Mingyue were in love. How could it be that Minister Jiang is deceiving the emperor?"
"Your Majesty is wise; my son would never dare to do such a thing, but..."
"But what? I've already issued the imperial decree. Do you want me to take it back?" When Wan Ge said this, her face instantly turned cold, and she looked at Lord Jiang indifferently.
At that moment, Lord Jiang felt a little scared. He had always thought His Majesty was weak, incompetent, and easy to talk to, so how did he suddenly become like this?
"Does Lord Jiang have anything else to discuss?"
"No...nothing more...This humble subject takes his leave." Lord Jiang realized that he couldn't change anything, so all he could do now was leave.
Wan Ge watched the other person's departing figure and snorted coldly. The other person was very willing to go all out for his son, but he was also a carefully cultivated legitimate son. He used to be proud of him, so he treated him differently.
…
Because the wedding preparations were rushed, the residence that Wan Ge prepared for Princess Mingyue was originally prepared by the late emperor. The environment and location were quite nice, but it looked a bit old because it hadn't been renovated over the years.
Moreover, given what had happened, the wedding wasn't particularly grand. That evening, Ge also cited being busy with official business as an excuse not to attend in person, but instead sent a gift.
