Isn't this pushing their whole family into a fire pit?
"It's alright, it's alright. I find my younger sister to be quite innocent and lively. I wonder if she could stay with her older sister for the rest of her life?"
Even a fool could understand what Qi Jingxuan was saying.
Jiang Shuhua immediately stepped forward and refused, "My sister is already out of favor here, what would I do if I came in too? I don't want to!"
Qi Jingxuan's expression remained unchanged, but Eunuch Wu beside him roared, "How dare you! Who gave you permission to speak like that before the Emperor?"
"Alright, let's go. If you've thought it through, you can come to the Qianqing Palace to see me." Before leaving, he didn't forget to adjust the tassels on Jiang Shuhua's hair.
"Sister, this man is really going too far. I don't want to go to the palace to keep him company."
Jiang Shuyuan felt that this was not her decision; having been favored by the Emperor, she had no choice but to obey.
"Sister, let's go back."
The two hurried back after talking, knowing that if they continued discussing anything there, they might get into trouble.
"Your Majesty, General Xu has sent a message by carrier pigeon, saying that your half-sister died of illness on the way out of the capital. She is now unable to enter the palace."
Upon hearing this news, Qi Jingxuan felt as if he had been struck by lightning. Although Qi Yuandong was Qi Jingxuan's sister, he had received a lot of help from her when he was Ruan Yumu in the backyard. He definitely did not want to marry into such a place!

"Let's put this matter aside for now and see how the prince from the Western Regions reacts after a few days of playing here. Then we can make a more detailed plan."
The Empress was overjoyed at the banquet upon hearing this news.
You should know that this princess ruined a lot of her plans. If it weren't for the princess, how could Ruan Yumu of Chengen Palace have given birth to the eldest prince smoothly?
She kept praising her younger sister to the prince from the Western Regions, saying that the princess was gentle and virtuous, and that marrying her would be perfect.
They were trying to find a way to send Qi Yuandong to the Western Regions.
Qi Yuandong was absent-minded throughout the banquet, unsure how to extricate himself. His eyes were fixed on the military officers, waiting for Xu Yuanzhang's reply.
Xu Yuanzhang not only failed to understand her meaning, but also repeatedly raised his glass to drink with her from a distance.
"What a blockhead!"
Ruan Yumu took all of this into account.
After dinner, the ministers dispersed.
Most people were already completely drunk, so this amount of wine was nothing to the prince of the Western Regions.
Qi Jingxuan, as expected, started to get arrogant after sitting on the throne. He thought it was fine to just find someone to replace him, and his mind was full of Jiang Shuhua, whom he had seen in the Imperial Garden today.
