The Shen family and the Fu family have already agreed on a marriage contract, and the news has spread throughout the capital.
After all, one is a famous playboy, and the other is a pretty beauty with only good looks. The two of them are a perfect match.
Wen Jingming didn't expect that after just one night, the Duke's Mansion agreed to the marriage of the Shen family. His face was gloomy. Then someone told him that the Duke was coming to visit and was waiting in the front hall.
Yesterday, Fu Zhuo was thinking that if the news of the engagement reached the ears of the Prime Minister, it might cause a conflict between the Duke's Mansion and the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Although the two families may not be able to become in-laws, they cannot be enemies either. The Duke's Mansion is already weak and certainly cannot offend the Prime Minister. Therefore, he came here early in the morning to explain the matter clearly and let the Prime Minister know his dilemma.
"Prime Minister, because I owed the General's Mansion a life-saving favor, I promised them a favor." Even if Fu Zhuo didn't say what happened next, Wen Jingming could guess it from his expression.
He couldn't let the Duke's Mansion be a traitor. It was obvious that Shen Moye and Fu Yunxi had no connection before, so what was going on now? Why did Shen Moye come to propose marriage, and even use up a promise.
When Xiao Yimo in the palace heard about this, she was overjoyed. She originally didn't know how to stop this.
"Your Majesty, Miss Fu and Mr. Chen are just two useless girls. You don't need to worry about them at all. The Prime Minister can also recognize the facts." Tao Yao has been Xiao Yimo's maid since she was a child. She knows what her master is thinking and severely belittles the two of them.
"This marriage was arranged by Yue Lao, so naturally, the pot should match the lid." The maid beside her also echoed.
Xiao Yimo felt happy after hearing this. She had always looked down on Fu Yunxi, but she didn't know what had gotten into Brother Jingming recently and he insisted on marrying Fu Yunxi.
Even though Xiao Yimo had married into the palace and became a concubine, she still regarded Wen Jingming as her own.
If anyone else wanted to snatch it away, she said with a fierce look in her eyes, she would definitely not let her go.
Wen Jingming thought that he still had to meet Fu Yunxi. After all, he would never be willing to let his ex-wife marry someone else.
The prime minister, who always prided himself on his romantic and dashing character, happened to meet Fu Yunxi. However, this coincidence was too deliberate. Fu Yunxi was sent out by his father to pick out some clothes, and happened to meet Wen Jingming in the clothing store.
Seeing the woman looking at him indifferently, Wen Jingming felt a little uncomfortable in his heart. After all, his memory still stayed when the two were husband and wife.
"If Miss Fu doesn't want to marry Shen Moye, I will go and talk to him." Wen Jingming thought that Fu Zhuo was forcing her, so he spoke in such a gentle voice. After all, the reason he could win the hearts of so many noble ladies in the capital was because of his gentlemanly demeanor.
Fu Yunxi didn't expect that Wen Jingming was willing to put in the effort now. As for the memory of his original body, he would not pay much attention to anything else except Xiao Yimo.
But the person in front of her had no idea that she was the one who had specially arranged this marriage.
"Don't bother the Prime Minister. My daughter's marriage is decided by my parents," Fu Yunxi replied, holding the things she bought and said, "I have already bought the things and will return home first."
Wen Jingming looked at the woman's figure with dark waves in his eyes. He didn't expect that it would be useless even if he met Fu Yunxi.
Within a few days, the Shen family came to offer the betrothal gifts.
Although the Shen family was not wealthy, they offered quite a lot of betrothal gifts, and the other families who were waiting to see the joke did not dare to say anything.
Since Fu Yunxi last went to the Princess's Mansion, he has frequently received invitations from the Princess.
The princess looked at the woman in front of her and sighed, "I didn't expect that it wouldn't be long before your marriage was settled. Mo Ye is a good boy, and I think you and him are a good match."
She spoke sincerely, and Fu Yunxi also understood the eldest princess. She was of noble status, so there was no need for her to say nice things to flatter her.
But this was strange, so Fu Yunxi asked the question in his heart, "People outside have very different views from you."
The princess held Fu Yunxi's hand, as if recalling something. "When I was young, I knew his father, that young genius. Mo Ye is his child, so he must be good."
Fu Yunxi keenly sensed something different. Could there be any connection between the eldest princess and Shen Moye's father?
Before Fu Yunxi could even ask, the princess spoke up, "When I was young, he and I were in love, but my father doted on me and felt that my life on the battlefield was in jeopardy, and I might become a widow one day, so he didn't allow me to be with him. Then, many things happened, and we can only say that we were not destined to be together."
Being born in the palace is indeed a noble birth, but it is not easy for you to decide your own marriage.
Fu Yunxi also felt a little regretful, but the eldest princess's face was full of indifference. In her mind, those were already old things, otherwise she would not have mentioned Shen Moye. Her expression did not change much. This was the child of General Shen and another woman, which proved that she had let it go.
"I want to go to the palace to visit the Queen Mother. Do you want to go with me?" The eldest princess liked Fu Yunxi, so she also wanted to let the Queen Mother meet her. After all, the Queen Mother felt that the palace was boring, so she often asked her to accompany her.
"Of course my daughter is willing. It would be my honor to see the Queen Mother." Fu Yunxi also wanted to go to the palace to see how Xiao Yimo was doing.
The Queen Mother was very angry with Xiao Yimo in the palace, so she was naturally happy to see the eldest princess coming, and she was also very graceful when she saw the woman beside her.
"Mother, this is Fu Yunxi, the legitimate daughter of the Duke's Mansion. She has been accompanying me recently, so I brought her to accompany you." The eldest princess spoke. It was obvious that she and the Queen Mother had a close relationship and they could talk about anything.
When the Queen Mother heard that it was her daughter's idea, a smile appeared on her face, and her attitude towards Fu Yunxi became more affectionate.
"Why is the Queen Mother so worried lately?" asked the eldest princess. She could tell at a glance that the Queen Mother looked much more haggard recently.
"It's all because of that vixen Concubine Xiao. Now your royal brother is completely bewitched by her and doesn't even listen to what your mother says." The empress dowager was furious when this was mentioned. The queen had a gentle temperament, and it was really Concubine Xiao who was the only one who had no control over the harem.
"She is just a concubine. The emperor is still interested in her, and you are still the queen mother after all." The eldest princess did not expect Xiao Yimo to be so arrogant that even her own mother had to suffer from her anger, so she planned to meet her.
After another conversation with the Queen Mother, the eldest princess went to find her brother.
The emperor has only this one sister, and he dotes on her very much.
