"Yue Shan was able to restore her appearance and finally found her own happiness!"
Ni Yueshan answered sincerely without any hesitation. The emperor looked calm and not surprised at all. After all, he already knew everything.
Only the Queen was so surprised that she couldn't be more surprised. She then stood up, knelt on the ground, and kowtowed to the Emperor: "It is my fault. I didn't discipline the Second Prince well, so he actually dared to change the bride..."
The empress wanted to take everything on her, but the emperor just said calmly: "Okay, you can get up now. This morning, Princess Gou Qiong has already seen me before the other two. I already know everything!"
"Princess Gou Qiong said that she acted first and reported later, which is why Yu Chen was forced to marry someone else. But I'm surprised that this someone else is Ni Yueshan!"
Ni Yueshan and Jing Yuchen exchanged a glance, and then Ni Yueshan respectfully responded, "Yueshan is guilty."
The queen's face turned interesting. How come there were so many things she didn't know?
"I don't blame you, but I want to remind you that since you have now replaced Princess Gou Qiong's identity, you will be Princess Gou Qiong from now on!"
"Otherwise, how could Cang Lie and Xian Chang form an alliance? Wouldn't the people of this world think that I was being mocked? And my son even teamed up with outsiders to mock me?"
Although this sentence was not an accusation, it sounded like an accusation to Ni Yueshan, Jing Yuchen and the Queen, which made people feel horrified.
"Yes, Yueshan will definitely live up to my father's high expectations and be a good Princess Gou Qiong!"
The queen looked at Ni Yueshan, her heart rising and falling!
The emperor looked at the queen and said, "Remember, this is Princess Gou Qiong, not Ni Yueshan from the Prime Minister's Mansion!"
"I also believe that you, Yueshan, are a smart child who knows how to get along with the people in the Prime Minister's Mansion and play your role well!"
"Yes, Gou Qiong understands!"
This response showed that Ni Yueshan was mentally prepared.
The emperor was a little satisfied, and then he said, "Okay, I still have to order the palace servants to hold the signing ceremony of the covenant, you two can chat slowly!"
The emperor did not punish them and left very readily. Jing Yuchen and Ni Yueshan had originally thought that they might be severely criticized today, but no, everything was very calm.
After the emperor left, the queen wiped the sweat from her forehead. She looked at the two and asked, "Who gave you the courage to do such a treasonous thing with Princess Gou Qiong?"
Jing Yuchen knelt on the ground, looking depressed. "Mother, when the imperial decree came down, I racked my brains but couldn't figure out how to refuse this marriage without angering my father and bringing trouble upon you!"
"I had no choice but to pressure Princess Gou Qiong, but I didn't expect her to be even more daring. She has been brewing a conspiracy without revealing a single word."
"If I hadn't taken the initiative to come to her and if she hadn't learned about the relationship between Yue Shan and me, she might have run away on the wedding day, or even arranged for another woman to be my principal wife!"
"Fortunately, Yueshan is still alive, and she also knows Yueshan. She knows the relationship between Erchen and Yueshan, and does not allow others to interfere."
The queen listened to Jing Yuchen's words with a serious expression.
"So you're so bold, daring enough to team up with Princess Gou Qiong to deceive me and the Emperor? When did you become so bold? You've never been so reckless in your actions before!"
The queen was obviously still recovering from the dangerous situation she had just been in, and she was feeling resentful and angry.
Jing Yuchen knew he was in the wrong, so he didn't argue. He lowered his attitude and said, "Mother, I know I was wrong. I will never take such a big risk again!"
Apart from marrying Ni Yueshan, for Ni Yueshan, there is indeed nothing in this world that he can risk, a risk regardless of the consequences, even if it will anger Long Wei and lead to execution.
The Queen covered her heart and said, "I was almost scared to death by you. Forget it. Since the Emperor doesn't want to pursue the matter, I won't say anything more about you."
"Since Yue Shan represents Gou Qiong, you must be careful with your words and actions from now on and keep your identities confidential. Besides, the Emperor once said that whoever marries the princess will be crowned the crown prince!"
"Yuchen, get up!" The queen's expression softened when she said this, and she looked at Jing Yuchen with admiration and pride.
Jing Yuchen glanced at Ni Yueshan who was kneeling beside him: "Mother, Yueshan is still kneeling?"
The Queen then glanced at Ni Yueshan and said, "You should get up too!"
She was obviously unhappy when she said this.
Perhaps in her eyes, the source of Jing Yuchen's doing such a rebellious and risky thing was Ni Yueshan. Ni Yueshan was destroying Jing Yuchen!
