The hall returned to silence in an instant, and everyone looked at Sheng Mingyu with inquiry in their eyes.
The emperor, in particular, was a man who couldn't keep secrets. He immediately asked, "Mingyu, tell me, what's going on? Why are you involved with the little princess from Miaojiang? She even said she loves you and won't marry anyone else. Did you flirt with her in the past?"
The emperor looked at Gu Yunni and told her not to make his daughter-in-law angry and leave.
The marriage that was finally arranged was ruined because of such a small matter. It really doesn't make up for it.
"Your Majesty, you misunderstood. I don't remember when I had any relationship with the Miaojiang Princess. She no longer exists in my memory. I will never marry anyone other than Yun Ni! I will never be involved with anyone else."
Although his words were cold, the promise contained in them was worth a thousand gold. He looked at Gu Yunni quietly, hoping that she could understand his heart.
"I feel relieved with your words, but I have also encountered a difficult problem. Please help me find a solution."
Seeing that Gu Yunni didn't respond, the emperor didn't hold on to her and turned to talk about other things.
"You've seen the princess from Miaojiang arrive. Kyoto is in turmoil. Who knows what she'll do next? Find a way to control her and prevent her from harming the people. I can't keep an eye on her all the time, so I'll leave it to you."
The other princes thought that Sheng Mingyu would be given an important position again, but it turned out to be this hot potato, and they immediately laughed.
"Me?" Sheng Mingyu pointed at himself in shock, full of disbelief.
"Your Majesty, you just told me not to get involved with Princess Miaojiang, and now you want me to watch over her. I can't do this. You should let the Imperial Master do it."
He hurriedly pushed the matter away.
The Imperial Master was watching a play, but he didn't expect the fire to suddenly burn him, and he looked puzzled.
"Why is your Highness pushing this onto me? I don't know the Miao princess, but since you two know each other, it would be easier for you to talk to her. As long as you treat her kindly, I believe she won't..."
"No!" Sheng Mingyu interrupted the Imperial Master before he could finish his words.
He glared at the Imperial Master. How could this man be so short-sighted?
"That princess is obviously a fool. I wonder what she'll say when she goes out. This prince is already engaged, how can he have a relationship with someone else? I can only trouble the Imperial Master with this matter. I hope you can take it to heart."
He broke down his words and said that although the Imperial Master was dissatisfied, he did not dare to refute him.
For Gu Yunni's happiness, he would make some sacrifices.
"If the Imperial Master really doesn't want to do it, you can hand it over to the other princes. As princes, they should naturally share the country's worries. I think the Miaojiang princess is quite good-looking. She must be here to find a husband. She would be a good match for the princes!"
Sheng Mingyu was not polite and turned around to shift the blame again.
The Imperial Master's eyes lit up, and he nodded vigorously, "Yes! I know Your Majesty doesn't want to have a good relationship with Miaojiang, but it's impossible to sever ties with them anytime soon. If the Miaojiang princess wants to marry, it should be with the princes. Why don't you create an opportunity for her and the princes?"
The emperor's expression was stiff at first, then he revealed helplessness. It was really hard to describe these two people.
"Then think about it, everyone. Who do you want to accompany the Miaojiang Princess? You must take good care of her for me. If anything unexpected happens, don't blame me for not letting you go!"
After the emperor finished speaking, the princes looked at each other in confusion.
Sheng Mingyu and the Imperial Master looked at each other and stopped talking.
They didn't care which prince would accompany them, as long as the task didn't fall on them.
Seeing that these two people were indifferent and indifferent, the emperor was furious.
Just as he was about to slam his fist on the table, Du Changming stepped forward and said, "Father, why don't you leave this matter to me? I will do my best to help you."
Du Changming's gaze was firm, but it made the emperor hesitate, and he glanced at Sheng Mingyu inadvertently.
As for Du Changming, he hasn't caused any trouble recently, but no one knows how long he can remain honest?
Seeing that the emperor was hesitant to speak, Du Changming became anxious. "Father, I have done many wrong things before, but I have changed my ways now. This time, I sincerely want to receive the Miao princess and will definitely not cause any trouble!"
His eyes were full of sincerity, and this time he really had no intention of scheming anything.
He knew very well that this was his last chance. If anything went wrong again, his father would never assign him any task in the future.
The emperor thought for a moment, but still did not make a decision. Instead, he turned his gaze to Sheng Mingyu.
"Mingyu, what do you think about this?"
After all, the emperor was also afraid that using Du Changming would hurt Sheng Mingyu's feelings.
Fortunately, this matter is not a hot topic, so it doesn’t matter if I give it to him.
Sheng Mingyu chuckled and stepped forward to reply, "Your Majesty, since the Seventh Prince is so willing to share your worries, why not grant his wish? Perhaps the Miaojiang Princess would like it."
Sheng Mingyu had no objection, so the emperor no longer had any worries. He immediately waved his hand and said, "Since that's the case, Seventh Brother, I'll leave this matter to you. You must ensure the safety of the people."
Du Changming was secretly dissatisfied. He couldn't understand why he, the emperor's son, had to be controlled by Sheng Mingyu in every way?
Even this only opportunity was fought for him by Sheng Mingyu!
Thinking of this, I felt uncomfortable.
But there was no other way. He could not give up this only opportunity and could only express his gratitude respectfully, "Thank you, Your Majesty. I will definitely not let you down."
"Hmm." The emperor simply nodded and hummed softly, then waved his hand and said to the crowd, "If there is nothing else, please leave."
Everyone present left one after another, and Sheng Mingyu pulled Gu Yunni into the carriage.
He wanted to explain further, but before he could open his mouth, he was interrupted by Gu Yunni, "Mingyu, there's no need to explain. I don't distrust you. Since someone has taken over this matter, there's no need for us to dwell on it anymore."
Thinking about it this way, Sheng Mingyu felt that it made sense and stopped dwelling on it. He just stretched out his long arms, pulled Gu Yunni towards him, and hugged her in his arms.
The two of them snuggled back to the Prince's Mansion. They first sent Gu Yunni back to her room to rest, and Sheng Mingyu went to the study alone to deal with things.
However, as soon as he entered the study, he felt a strange breath. His eyebrows immediately raised and he shouted coldly, "Who!? Get out!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he raised the sword in his hand and stabbed it towards a corner of the study.
A figure appeared in a disheveled state, and upon closer inspection, it turned out to be the Miao princess!
I wonder when she entered here? Sheng Mingyu's pupils shrank.
Resisting the urge to kill him with a sword, he calmed down and asked, "What are you doing here? How did you get in?"
