Chapter 66



Yan Nangui didn't pay much attention to Shu Chengfeng's words, and casually said, "If I hadn't been so stupid before, where would our fate have been?"

She said it casually, but Shu Chengfeng had a different thought when he heard it.

If she hadn't been married off to the Meng family by the eldest princess right after she came of age, she would have been qualified to be his crown princess.

Although His Majesty might not agree...

Thinking of this, he suddenly said, "Speaking of your past..." He paused but continued, "I think the Princess was so eager for you to marry into the Meng family, His Majesty must have had the same intention."

Of course, His Majesty should only stop her from entering the Crown Prince's residence.

After all, even if he disagreed, he couldn't do anything if the court officials all agreed. So it was better to cut off the source of the problem.

Yan Nangui chuckled sarcastically: "Your father is really something. Did he just pick up the throne by chance? Is he that insecure? All he does is resort to underhanded tricks all day long. Low-class."

Her words were naturally disrespectful, but Shu Chengfeng simply raised an eyebrow, pulled her close, and pinched her chin: "You dare to say anything."

He merely gave a perfunctory squeeze, and Yan Nangui snorted and broke free: "Isn't this a fair accusation?"

Shu Chengfeng didn't say whether he was wronged or not, but said again, "Don't touch your fourth sister for now."

Yan Nangui nodded in agreement.

Indeed, it's best not to touch her for now. If she also falls, Yan Lingyun's three biological daughters will only have this one outstanding daughter in the Crown Prince's residence.

That would be bad. Besides, the eldest princess might go crazy, so let's not do anything for now. There's no rush; as long as the crown prince can't ascend the throne, she can't really do anything to the eldest princess.

"Of course I will listen to Your Highness, but Your Highness also needs to grant me a request." Yan Nangui leaned over and hugged Shu Chengfeng's waist: "Tomorrow, I want her to kneel down and perform a grand ceremony for my mother."

Shu Chengfeng didn't speak, he just looked at her.

This is going a bit too far. It's not that he feels sorry for the eldest princess, but rather that the eldest princess is a royal princess.

Humiliating her is one thing, but making her perform the grandest rites before a subject's wife is another…

"Why go to such lengths to exterminate them?" Shu Chengfeng said softly after a long pause.

"Pfft, when has Your Highness ever been so merciful? Does Your Highness intend to let Consort Zhen off the hook another day?" Yan Nangui chuckled.

Shu Chengfeng smiled and pinched her cheek affectionately: "Do you know what you're asking for?"

"Of course, killing someone is just a matter of beheading them. All she cared about in this life was her high and mighty status, so I'll make her kneel down. Not only that, but her remains should continue to be sent to the Yan family cemetery after she dies. She can continue to be a concubine."

That's easy enough. The eldest princess has her own tomb, but who knows if her remains are still there?

Shu Chengfeng shook his head: "If Tang'er is determined, how can I say no? I promise you."

"Your Highness is so kind. I am truly blessed to be with you." Yan Nangui reached out and hugged his neck. "Your Highness, rest assured, in the future, my father will only have me as his useful daughter, so he will not dare not support Your Highness. However, for now, I am still the least favored daughter in the Yan family. This is for the best, as it means less contact and less suspicion."

Shu Chengfeng didn't comment on these words, but simply grabbed her tightly and said, "You keep talking about your troubles. Shouldn't you be fulfilling your duties now?"

“Your Highness, what’s the point of fulfilling your duties? It’s all the same. Since Your Highness is craving it, you should do it yourself. I’ll do it with you.”

Shu Chengfeng looked down at her flower-like face, a mischievous smile spreading across his face, and then bit her lip.

While things are bustling about here, there are plenty of restless people in the mansion.

The Crown Princess suffered a miscarriage—this was truly shocking. Who would have thought that it was she who had encountered this problem?

Especially now, Luo Liangyuan and Ning Chenghui are forced to take the lead. The Crown Princess miscarried; will they be able to have children?

Then there's Ye Liangdi, who was incredibly excited: "I knew she was lucky! Look, she's got the life but no luck! She tripped and fell, hahaha, this is so funny!"

Yuehua quickly flattered, "If she's destined to be childless, no amount of trying will help."

Liu Ying smiled and said, "We don't know what will happen in the future, but for now, she should accept it. Even if other women give birth, they will only be of low status and will have to wait for you to give birth."

Liu Ying still tries to advise Ye Liangdi, but much less so than before, and her advice remains superficial.

Unfortunately, Yuehua had been suppressed by her before, and now she was only concerned with consolidating her own status, so she didn't pay attention to these things.

Ye Liangdi asked, "Where is my cousin? Is he still in the main courtyard?"

"Your Highness has gone to Jiyue Pavilion," Yuehua hurriedly said.

"Going again? You go and invite him. Just say I've prepared a late-night snack and invited my cousin over." Ye Liangdi frowned.

Yuehua hesitated; it was getting late...

But Ye Liangdi's eyebrows shot up: "Go on! What are you standing there for?"

Yuehua had no choice but to go.

Yunji didn't dare to get close to the window; he just said something from a distance.

Shu Chengfeng, his breath unsteady, simply replied with one word: "Get lost."

Yun quickly rolled away.

As soon as he came out, he said to Yuehua, "His Highness asked me to forward a single word: Get lost."

Startled, Yuehua quickly rolled away.

The news from the leaflet made Ye Liangdi furious and aggrieved, but she dared not say anything to her cousin, so she could only blame Yan Nangui.

I went to sleep feeling satisfied, even though I was still quite angry.

Meanwhile, in Jiyue Pavilion, the Crown Prince had just calmed down and thought to himself that this woman was poisonous.

He didn't think he was particularly lustful, but this woman was just too good at flirting...

Ye Liangdi's late-night snack was nowhere to be seen, but Yan Nangui did treat her to a meal.

In short, it was a delightful night.

Since there was no need to pay respects these past few days, Yan Nangui knew it was getting late as soon as he opened his eyes, as the sunlight streaming through the curtains was bright.

She stretched and knew without looking that no one was beside her. She hadn't even woken up when the Crown Prince got up that morning.

She called for someone to come in, and Chanyi and Yuanhua came in to help her change her clothes.

Chanyi explained, "Although there was no morning court session today, His Highness got up quite early and said that you should get up and have your own meal. He left early so as not to disturb you."

"Your Highness is so kind. I've really been sleep-deprived these past few days, and it feels so good to have slept so well." Yan Nangui said, yawning again, rubbing his eyes, and getting up.

Just as she finished dressing, Jiangxiang came in and said, "Liangyuan, Consort Ye said she's inviting everyone over."

"Everyone?" Yan Nangui raised an eyebrow.

“Yes, she invited everyone except the Crown Princess,” Jiang Xiang said.

"What is this? The Crown Princess is recuperating temporarily, and she wants to seize power? Who gave her permission?"

"Well... no, that's what she meant anyway. Are you going?" Jiangxiang asked.

"Go to hell. Tell me, I'm tired and don't want to go out," Yan Nangui said indifferently.

"Huh? You just say that?" Jiangxiang felt it was a bit too blunt.

Yan Nangui suddenly grinned mischievously: "Just say that I'm weak all over, especially my legs, and I really can't get out."

I'm so angry I could die!
