But several days passed and he still didn't make any move.
The guard couldn't help but ask, "Master, don't you want to marry Princess Yunle?"
At that time, Ouyang Zuo was still recuperating, half lying on the couch reading a book.
After hearing the guard's words, he was stunned for a moment.
Many people are puzzled by his current behavior. They all think that his current silence is a disguise and that he will definitely take action against Duan Qingxi or Helian Yun when the time comes.
But he is not a fool, otherwise he would not be so arrogant and still live safely until now.
Helian Yun has already hooked up with Fei Shang, and although he is still useful to Fei Shang, the other party obviously values Helian Yun more.
Although Duan Qingxi is very important to him, he does not necessarily have to have Duan Qingxi. Although he likes her a little, it is mostly based on interest, not love for her to death.
He said to the guards, "There's no need to keep an eye on Helian Yun and Princess Yunle. After this banquet, we'll return to Liyuan."
The guard was very surprised by Ouyang Zuo's decision, but he didn't say anything. He just said "yes" and went down to make arrangements.
After the guards left, Ouyang Zuo clenched the book in his hand.
He had never believed in fate, but at this moment... he suddenly realized how weak he was in the face of fate.
If it wasn't fate that required him to do so, how could he fail miserably in every opportunity he had?
Forget it, he should just be content to be the fourth prince.

Duan Qingxi was also very surprised by Ouyang Zuo's silence. Before, this man looked determined to get him, but now he was nowhere to be seen.
Of course, Duan Qingxi was still very happy that he didn't come to harass her.
Three days later, the emperor and empress held another banquet.
However, this banquet was for Ouyang Zuo to choose a marriage partner.
Because the candidate had been decided long ago, everything went smoothly. The other party was a gentle and beautiful woman who also had some feelings for Ouyang Zuo. Although it was a marriage of arrangement, it was a willing one, so everyone was optimistic about this marriage.
Seeing that the wedding of the Fifth Prince and the Ninth Prince was getting closer, the Emperor originally wanted to send Ouyang Zuo away first and then worry about the arrangements for the marriage.
But Ouyang Zuo's body was getting weaker and weaker, and he was even poisoned!
This matter suddenly became a big deal. If Ouyang Zuo died here, it would be troublesome!
Fortunately, Helian Wushuang quickly found the person who poisoned the country. He was sent by another small country with the purpose of alienating Shengyuan Kingdom and Liyuan Kingdom.
The murderer was caught, the misunderstanding was resolved, and the marriage continued.
However, Ouyang Zuo's health was not suitable for traveling, so his departure had to be postponed.
It so happened that the Queen Mother of Li Yuan was seriously ill at this moment. The Queen Mother had loved Ouyang Zuo the most since childhood, so the Emperor of Li Yuan immediately sent someone to deliver a letter, hoping that Ouyang Zuo could hurry back to see the Queen Mother for the last time.
He also thought that if Ouyang Zuo could bring the Fourth Prince's wife back in time, maybe they could even have a happy occasion.
After going back and forth like this, the people from Yuan Kingdom finally decided to leave on the day Helian Yun and Helian Sheng got married.
The emperor naturally had no objection, but it was not appropriate for him to have one.
However, Duan Qingxi, who received the news, paused and frowned.
Even Qiao Yun couldn't help but ask, "Isn't it... too much of a coincidence?"
He left not earlier or later, but on the wedding day.
