Nan Han was startled and looked up into the woman's eyes. Those eyes were no longer coquettish, but filled with a glimmer that made people trust.
Nan Han nodded unconsciously.
As soon as the announcement of the marriage proposal from the Green Rose Kingdom was issued, it caused an uproar among various countries.
Not to mention that Princess Nanhan had been married before, the conditions on the imperial edict were extremely harsh.
However, at the same time, a message was quietly passed between countries. It was said that Queen Luluo intended to give the throne to Princess Nanhan, so it would be possible to get Luluo by marrying the princess. For a while, princes and nobles from various countries all rushed to Luluo.
The Imperial Palace of Han Kingdom.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!" Dashan rushed into the imperial study in a hurry, shaking his burly body like a mountain.
The memorials were scattered all over the floor. Leng Yichen lazily leaned on the couch and looked up at Dashan impatiently. "What are you arguing about? Didn't you see that I was reviewing the memorials all night last night? I am very tired now. Don't bother me if it's not important!"
"Your Majesty, this is an important matter!" Dashan raised the imperial edict with both hands above his head and presented it to the man, "Princess Nanhan of the Green Rose Kingdom is seeking a husband!"
Leng Yichen glanced lazily, then turned back and nestled on the couch, "It's Nanhan who's looking for a husband, not my Yao'er, why are you so excited?"
"Your Majesty, it is said that Nan Han may be the heir of Queen Luluo, and royal princes from all over the country are rushing to Luluo!" Dashan could not hide his excitement.
Leng Yichen yawned twice impatiently.
"Your Majesty, here is a handwritten letter from Empress Green Rose!"
"Why didn't you say so earlier!" The white shadow rushed down from the couch, snatched the letter from Dashan's hand, and opened it impatiently, but his brows were getting more and more furrowed.
After waiting for a letter, it turned out to be...
Leng Yichen sighed quietly, "Dashan, pack up, we are heading south to Green Rose!"
Dashan was surprised and asked, "Is the emperor going on a blind date?"
Leng Yichen nodded disinterestedly.
"That's great. If the emperor marries Princess Nanhan, then Han Kingdom and Luoluo will merge..." Dashan kept chattering, and Leng Yichen frowned when he heard it.
"If you keep nagging, I will put you in solitary confinement for three days!" Leng Yichen said impatiently.
Dashan quickly shut up and just smiled innocently. As long as the emperor is no longer obsessed with that Green Lotus Empress, it doesn't matter who he marries!
The royal palace of Giant Clam Kingdom.
In late spring and early summer, although it is still a little chilly in the morning and evening, the mountains and rivers are already full of flowers and green willows, and it is extremely prosperous. Patches of pink, red, and white cover the entire Giant Clam City, and the falling flowers are everywhere, which is so beautiful.
In the palace of the Giant Clam Kingdom, the inner court beneath the high city walls is prosperous yet cold. It appears peaceful on the surface, but in reality, murderous intentions are lurking at every step.
In the imperial study, Jie Xi wrote the final stroke on the edict and then stamped it with the seal.
"Jiang Han, this matter is now handed over to you. You must carry out it in secret. Jiang Yan has countless followers. You must get rid of him quickly before his people find out!" Ji Xi spoke coldly and handed the edict to Jiang Han with cold eyes.
"Yes, King!" Jiang Han took the edict and deeply understood the saying that a man who knows the times is a hero. In fact, Jiang Yan, as a loyal and righteous king, is already second to none, but he is not satisfied. He colluded with foreign tribes and attempted to split Giant Clam. In the end, he was escorted back to the city, but his subordinates were still scattered everywhere. The king wants to get rid of him, that's for sure!
After watching Jiang Han leave the palace, Ji Xi's eyes darkened. He unfolded the imperial edict, stretched out his slender white fingers, and stroked the seal of the Green Lotus Empress. A deep longing welled up in his eyes. Yao'er, are you okay?
In the evening, Jiang Han strode into the palace, knelt on the ground and said respectfully, "Your Majesty, I have sent Prince Zhongyi and Miss Jiang on their way!"
Ji Xi nodded, "Come on, announce it to the world, saying that the King of Loyalty has passed away, and his daughter Jiang Cheng is loyal and filial, and is willing to follow her father. Jiang Cheng is posthumously named Princess Loyalty, granted by the emperor!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Jiang Han immediately accepted the order.
"Jiang Han, you did a great job!" Ji Xi changed his dignity and smiled faintly, "I heard you have a sister?"
Jiang Han was stunned, not understanding why Ji Xi asked this question, and immediately knelt down and said, "King, is it my sister..."
"No, you're worrying too much. It's just that I need a confidant to go to Nanyue. It is said that Emperor Yue will take a concubine into the palace in two months!" Ji Xi smiled faintly, "Now we are vassal under Nanyue, we have to be careful in everything we do. Placing someone in the palace will also be an extra pair of eyes, which will achieve twice the result with half the effort!"
Jiang Han nodded immediately, "Wang is right, Jiang Han will arrange it right away!" Jiang Han paused and said again, "Wang, you are much more thoughtful!"
Ji Xi smiled slightly, "I have to thank my teacher for this, but it's a pity that I can only miss him in this life!"
Jiang Han didn't know who Ji Xi was talking about, but he was thinking in his heart, it turns out that Wang has such a capable master. No wonder he was able to quickly eliminate Jiang Yan's influence in the palace and establish his own system in just two months.
Ji Xi looked in the direction of Luluo and said softly, "Yao'er, I wish you happiness!"
Green Lotus Palace and Fengwu Palace.
"Princess, the empress has really sent out the imperial edict. It is said that the reaction outside is strong and many people have signed up to run for the election!" Xiao Feng was so excited that she couldn't speak clearly.
Nan Han sat quietly in front of the dressing table. Until now, she still didn’t understand why she had agreed to Lan Shuiyao at that time. Now that it had become such a big fuss, how should it end?
"Princess? What's wrong with you? Are you unhappy?" Xiao Feng saw that she was frowning and asked cautiously.
"Xiao Feng, I'm already a married woman, and now I'm still looking for a husband in a high-profile manner. What do you think others will think?" Nan Han sighed softly.
"No matter what others say, this is the Green Rose Country, women are respected and women are the emperors. Princess, have you forgotten? The empress called the princess her sister on the imperial list. Who dares to object?"
Xiao Feng pouted unconvincedly, "Besides, the princess used to be fearless, why are you afraid of everything now?"
"Before?" Nan Han stopped combing her hair. "It was so good before!"
"Princess, you can go back to the past now. You are still a princess. Nothing has changed, right?" Xiao Feng didn't understand her melancholy.
Nan Han smiled faintly, "Once you have seen the sea, all other waters are just puddles. Your state of mind has changed, and you can't go back!"
Xiaofeng still didn't understand.
"Well, in that case, let's follow the Empress's arrangements. She doesn't seem to be someone who doesn't know her limits!" Nan Han smiled faintly, combed her hair again, and changed the topic to ask, "Have you been exercising these days?"
"Princess, why are you asking him? Hasn't he harmed you enough?" Xiao Feng pouted, "I hate that man, I don't care about him!"
Nan Han sighed quietly. A husband and wife are bound by a hundred days of grace for each other, not to mention that she truly loved this man. Even if he was unkind, she could not be unjust.
"Xiao Feng, let's go and take a look!" Nan Han stood up.
Xiaofeng followed Nanhan reluctantly.
As soon as I walked out of the palace, Yue Nanchen came to meet me.
"Eighth Brother, do you have something to talk to Nanhan about?" Nanhan quickly saluted.
Yue Nanchen frowned coldly, but eventually slowed down his voice, "Are you going to see A Luo?"
Her thoughts were exposed, and Nan Han's face turned slightly red.
"Yao'er is right! Nanhan, you still have feelings for A' Luo! In this case, you should listen to your royal brother and don't leave Fengwu Palace before choosing a husband. Believe in your royal brother, he will give you justice and happiness!" Yue Nanchen raised his hand and placed it on Nanhan's shoulder.
"Royal brother... Nanhan used to think that you were bloodthirsty and cold-hearted, but I never expected that you..." Nanhan's eyes welled up with tears.
"Silly sister, remember, we only have you as a princess in Nanyue. Brother will definitely make you happy!" Yue Nanchen turned his eyes to Xiaofeng, "Xiaofeng, take the princess back to the palace and remember what I said!"
Xiaofeng nodded and quickly took Nanhan back.
Yue Nanchen stared at Nanhan's back in a daze, as if thinking about something, when he felt Shuiyao's breath.
"My wife!" Yue Nanchen immediately laughed and turned around to hug Shui Yao, "My wife really has foresight. Nanhan..."
Shui Yao chuckled, "Now you still blame me for the random matchmaking?"
Yue Nanchen gently hugged Shui Yao and rocked her, "I never blamed you, I was just unhappy that you used the soul-stealing technique to control Nan Han and made her agree!"
"What soul-capturing technique? It's just hypnosis. I've told you so many times!" Shui Yao said coquettishly.
"Yes, yes, hypnosis, is this also a unique product of your world?" Ever since he heard about Shui Yao's world, Yue Nanchen has been very interested in it and always asks questions. At this time, he doesn't look like the powerful King Yongnan at all, but like a curious child.
