Emperor Yong made the final decision, and the matter was settled.
Meng Guxue stood up slowly, not daring to look at the Second Prince standing beside her.
She was really scared, scared of the second prince's unfathomable nature.
If he continued to stay in the Yong Dynasty, there would be a series of events such as the Yuzhou flood, the Minzhou epidemic, the sudden death of the prince, the beheading of Qiao Zhongguo, and the dismemberment of Qiao Tianjing by five horses.
In the dream, except for the extermination of the Qiao family, nothing else was done by Shen Lang. He just happened to be the beneficiary.
But after witnessing with her own eyes how Han Yaxian was almost poisoned, she could no longer believe that the Second Prince had no hand in this!
Now, after the beating, she is truly awake.
Compared to them, I am just a fool!
Now she just wants to escape and stay away from the Second Prince!
If possible, she wouldn't want to choose anyone.
But her foolish behavior in the past has led step by step to the current situation. She realized it too late, and now she has no choice but to choose due to the circumstances.
In comparison, Baili Chengyou is given less attention. At least in dreams, he has always been a passionate person.
She could only stay by his side for now. If Baili Chengyou was also so terrifying, she could only wait for her chance to act.
No matter where in the world, there will always be a place for Meng Guxue...
"Ms. Meng."
The second prince suddenly called out, which frightened Meng Guxue who was lost in thought and made her face pale.
The Second Prince noticed Meng Guxue's reaction and his eyes darkened.
Is she afraid of him?
To be honest, Meng Guxue's attitude changed so quickly that it was really strange.
It was clearly the Dragon Boat Festival last year, in Yuhua Garden, she was still looking shy and timid.
During the year he stayed in the clan house, what happened to Meng Guxue?
Baili Chengyou saw this scene and was about to block Meng Guxue when the Second Prince spoke in a gentle voice:
"This is your choice, and I respect you. I hope you will go to Nanli Kingdom with good luck in spring, peace in summer, peace in autumn, and happiness in winter. Everything is going well..."
After the Second Prince finished speaking, he nodded slightly to Meng Guxue, then turned around and walked towards his seat calmly, his every word and action showing his elegance.
Seeing this, Qiao Jiaojiao shook her head slightly.
[Is this a blessing? No, this is a death warrant! ]
Under her sleeves, Meng Guxue clenched her hands tightly, and she was so scared that a thin layer of sweat broke out on her back.
She suddenly realized a very serious problem.
If the second prince is really the kind of person she guessed, would he let her reach Nanli Kingdom alive?
Does Baili Chengyou have the ability to protect her from the Second Prince?
Thinking of this, Meng Guxue felt as if he had fallen into a quagmire, with a feeling of suffocation that he could not escape.
"Mengjia Guxue, please listen to the appreciation."
Emperor Yong's deep voice sounded.
Since it is a marriage alliance, it represents the reputation of Yong State, and the identity of a mere daughter of a minister is no longer appropriate.
There are precedents for this kind of thing in history. Just grant her the identity of a princess with a different surname.
As soon as Emperor Yong said this, Lord Meng happily pulled Madam Meng out and knelt down to listen and appreciate together.
Mrs. Meng lowered her head and bit her lower lip tightly, fearing that she would cry out.
She doesn't care about any reward at all, she is already heartbroken at the moment!
That's Nanli Country, the journey is long, and she is afraid that she will never see Xue'er again in her lifetime.
Furthermore, Xue'er is a trouble-making person. When she arrives in Nanli Kingdom, there is no one to protect or advise her. What should she do if the Third Prince bullies her?
Xue'er is her life and her heart!
Thinking of this, Mrs. Meng's eyes turned red and she blinked hard to prevent the tears from falling.
According to the old system, Emperor Yong adopted Meng Guxue as his adopted daughter, bestowed upon her the title "Nanning", rewarded her with gold and jewelry, and even promoted Meng's father by two ranks.
Lord Meng's face turned red with excitement and he kept shouting "thank you".
When everyone saw this, they had different thoughts.
Some people envied Mr. Meng for having a good daughter who brought honor to the family, while others were full of disdain.
To put it nicely, the marriage is to bring about friendship between the two countries. To put it bluntly, the daughter is like being given away to someone else!
Those who loved their daughters secretly felt lucky that their daughters had never suffered such a fate.
At this point, the Shura field that Qiao Jiaojiao had been looking forward to came to an end.
However, has the Qiao family’s plan of “sitting on the mountain and watching the tigers fight” ended?
No, on the contrary, the plan has just begun!
Qiao Jiaojiao was secretly gearing up for a fight.
After expressing their gratitude, the Meng family sat down again.
The second princess looked up at Meng Guxue's back, feeling both relieved and unable to help sighing.
If it weren't for Miss Meng, the choice of marriage would most likely have fallen on her.
Now that she has escaped a disaster, she only hopes that Prince Baili’s high-profile statement is sincere, and hopes that Miss Meng can have a good ending.
Che Hebi sat behind a long desk, looking at the gloomy expression of the Second Prince opposite her, feeling unhappy.
This young lady from the Meng family really has no vision and no luck!
Regardless of whether the young master really admires Miss Meng or not, as long as it is what the young master wants, he will naturally do his best to help the young master get what he wants!
Shen Yuanbai never looked at Meng Guxue again. He lowered his head, and his slightly drooped eyebrows looked very lonely.
However, under the desk, he tapped his knees rhythmically with his fingertips, and it was obvious that he was very calm.
No matter who Meng Guxue chooses for today's event, he has already prepared himself mentally.
Meng Guxue is hiding a secret and holds the formula. If he doesn't get it, no one else is qualified to have it.
Of course, this is all a story for later.
At least within the territory of Yong Dynasty, nothing can happen to Meng Guxue, otherwise he will still be very suspicious.
At the moment, there is something else that makes him more concerned.
How did Han Yaxian avoid the cup of poisoned tea?
After the poison was dissolved in tea, it became colorless and tasteless. The palace maid who served the tea was well-trained and there was no way she would reveal any clues.
Moreover, Han Yaxian won't even feel any discomfort after drinking this tea.
She will only slowly discover the clues when she gets married and grows older but still cannot get pregnant.
But by that time, the cold poison had already been completely integrated into her bones and blood, and there was no possibility of recovery!
Thinking of this, the second prince felt very surprised.
He now has limited power, and can only disintegrate the Qiao family from within step by step, distract their attention, and then wait for an opportunity to act.
However, the Qiao family was so weird that they managed to get through this disaster without any danger!
I heard that Qiao Zhongguo even brought the tea to the emperor.
Fortunately, this cold poison is a secret medicine of the Northern Kingdom Court that is not passed on to outsiders. Even Zou Qi, who has superb medical skills, can't find the source of the medicine!
The Qiao family is really a troublesome situation. It really makes him uneasy to sleep and eat that his royal brother has such help.
How can we defeat the Qiao family?
The Second Prince's thoughts raced, and his tapping fingertips suddenly paused.
By the way, doesn’t Qiao Zhongguo love his daughter dearly?
He tilted his head slightly and caught a glimpse of Qiao Zhongguo's desk out of the corner of his eye.
At this time, Qiao Zhongguo lowered his head and smiled as he handed a piece of fruit to his little daughter's mouth.
The second prince raised his lips slightly when he saw this.
It is very normal for a baby of one or two years old to die prematurely...
