The person who was most happy about this incident was Zhong Nanyiyi. She didn't expect that Fu Yunxi would actually give up Lu Changzhou and choose that sickly guy.
Therefore, seeing that it was almost dusk, Zhong Nanyiyi planned to go to the Dali Temple to visit Lu Changzhou. Although Lu Changzhou tried to cheer himself up, it was obvious that he was in a bad mood.
Even other people in the Dali Temple did not dare to discuss this matter, for fear of angering the Dali Temple Minister.
Zhong Nanyiyi still had the wine in her hand, obviously thinking that doing so would allow him to open up his heart.
"I brought some wine. Would you like to have a few drinks, brother?" Zhong Nanyiyi had a smile on his face, which made people let down their guard.
Everyone else in the Dali Temple had also gone back, and they were the only ones left in the entire Dali Temple.
As long as it doesn't interfere with official business, it doesn't matter.
Although Lu Changzhou doesn't drink much on weekdays, he is depressed. Now that he has some wine, he can relax.
But after just two drinks, Lu Changzhou's face was already slightly red. Normally, he could drink quite well, but perhaps because he drank too quickly today, he felt a little drunk.
Zhong Nanyiyi, who was standing by, saw this and a smile appeared on his face.
If something really happened, given Lu Changzhou's personality, he would definitely become her consort.
But what she didn't know was that an accident happened in the middle. Fu Yunxi had already known Zhong Nanyiyi's whereabouts and had a rough guess about what she wanted to do.
At this time, the only way to solve this problem is to find Sheng Minghan.
So she concealed the way the word was written, and then wrote
Sheng Minghan went to the Third Princess's Mansion to look for Zhong Nanyiyi, but found out that she was not there.
After learning that she had gone to the Dali Temple, Sheng Minghan could no longer sit still and hurried over.
There were only two guards guarding the gate of the Dali Temple, and they looked quite lazy. On weekdays, no common people would dare to go directly to the Dali Temple, so this was the time when they were the most relaxed.
Seeing the young general coming to the Dali Temple, they did not stop him and let him in.
Zhong Nanyiyi inside also drank a glass of wine unconsciously. She thought she could drink a lot, but she was a little drunk after drinking one glass.
But it was obvious that Lu Changzhou was even drunker and had already fallen on the table.
This room in the Dali Temple is Lu Changzhou's exclusive room. He can rest here when he is tired of handling cases on weekdays.
After Zhong Nanyiyi helped Lu Changzhou to the bed, a smile appeared on her face. Maybe then she could marry her imperial sister.
The imperial sister married that sickly guy, while she was with Lu Changzhou.
When Sheng Minghan came in, he saw this scene. He was so angry that he clenched his fists and wanted to beat Lu Changzhou up.
But what is more important now is Zhong Nanyiyi. The woman is already drunk and confused. If he doesn't take her away, what happened between the two of them will make the whole capital city noisy the next day, and he may really not be able to become a prince consort.
It can only be said that Sheng Minghan came at the right time. Zhong Nanyiyi thought everything was under her control and never expected that such a problem would occur in the middle.
Sheng Minghan led his men out from the main gate, and the two officers and soldiers did not react at all. After all, the third princess came to see the adults, and now she was drunk, so there was nothing wrong with General Sheng sending her back to the mansion.
After all, General Sheng and the Third Princess were childhood sweethearts, and everyone in the capital knew about it. Many people also thought that Zhong Nanyiyi was waiting for General Sheng, so she had not had a prince consort for all these years. They never thought that the reason she didn't have a prince consort was not because of General Sheng, but because of her ex-brother-in-law.
Sheng Minghan was so reluctant to let go of the sweet and soft girl in his arms. The best way for him now was of course to send Zhong Nanyiyi back to the Third Princess's Mansion, but today's events made him feel a sense of crisis. If he sent her back to the Princess's Mansion now, Baili Hong would definitely be able to take care of her, and he would get nothing.
For some unknown reason, Sheng Minghan took Zhong Nanyiyi directly back to the general's mansion.
When General Sheng saw his son bringing the third princess back, he sighed secretly. He did not object to his son becoming a prince consort. After all, being able to be with the person you love is the happiest thing.
Having seen so many lives and deaths on the battlefield, General Sheng no longer cares so much about these things.
But his son likes the third princess, but the third princess doesn't like his son.
If it were someone else, he would have come to propose marriage long ago, as long as the parents and the matchmaker agreed. But if it was the third princess, she must have agreed in person.
After all, even if she is a princess, she is still the monarch, and their Sheng family is the ministers.
How could Mrs. Sheng not know what her husband was thinking? Although she wanted her son to marry another noble lady at first, after forcing her, her son was either dying or simply disappeared. She only had this one son, and of course she didn't want anything to happen to him.
Over time, she finally compromised. Since her son was so obsessed with the princess, she might as well marry her. Then the princess would give her a grandson, and she could enjoy the happiness of family.
The General's Mansion also shared the same idea. Now that the three princesses have been brought to the mansion, they are naturally unwilling to give up this opportunity.
So Madam Sheng said, "Wasn't the emperor going to come to the palace a few days ago? You can go to the palace now to invite him."
Lord Sheng thought about it and understood. Although Zhong Nanyiyi's marriage mainly depended on her wishes, the emperor could also make the decision for her, so he entered the palace immediately.
Madam Sheng was also not idle. She immediately told her son about this matter, "I have asked your father to go to the palace to invite the emperor to come. If the emperor saw the two of you now, he would surely grant you marriage."
When Sheng Minghan first heard this idea, he refused, after all, it would affect Zhong Nanyiyi's reputation.
Little did he know that Mrs. Sheng's words would leave him speechless.
"I know you only care about the Third Princess, and I know you're thinking about her, but if she marries someone else, what can you do then?"
Sheng Minghan clenched his fists and agreed.
Madam Sheng was not idle either. She invited two ladies she was familiar with to come and serve as witnesses. One of them was the wife of the Minister of Works. She liked to spread rumors about other people's families. If she knew what happened in the mansion, then everyone in the capital would definitely know about it.
The emperor is usually busy dealing with government affairs. Last time he heard that new varieties of flowers had bloomed in the general's mansion, he wanted to go and see it.
Now that Sheng Minghan came to the palace in person to invite the emperor, the emperor certainly did not refuse. Coincidentally, the prime minister had just finished discussing something with the emperor at that time, so he went with him.
Inside the room, Sheng Minghan looked at Zhong Nanyiyi lying on the bed, a complex expression flashed in his eyes, and finally he took off the outer clothes of both of them.
Zhong Nanyiyi was still dreaming that she was going to be with Lu Changzhou.
So when she felt a man's presence approaching her, she hugged that man directly.
At this time, everything in the general's mansion was ready. A hint of determination flashed in Mrs. Sheng's eyes. Success or failure depended on this one move.
