Chapter 304 She Can't Just Sit and Wait
The Imperial Garden is picturesque and looks like a fairyland under the embellishment of colorful lanterns.
However, Ye Yizhen was in no mood to appreciate it at all, and glared angrily at the man in front of her.
"What the hell are you doing? Why are you hiding it from me?"
If it weren't for Prince Rui and Yun Zheng's instigation, she would still be kept in the dark and foolishly deceived.
Ge Shulin patiently explained, "A marriage between you and me is in the best interests of both countries. I will marry you as my equal wife, and no one will look down on you."
He doesn't mind having a few more women in the backyard. If he likes one, he will pamper her; if he doesn't like one, he will throw her aside.
Anyway, he can afford it.
Besides, she is the object of marriage and will be treated as a lucky charm.
Ye Yizhen felt like she was hit hard by a hammer, her head was buzzing. It turned out that what Yun Zheng said was true, she was the chess piece that was sent out.
"Why not Jin Luo? She's older than me."
Ge Shulin looked at her as if she were a fool. "Princess Jinluo is the heir to Nanyue. How could she possibly get married?"
He wanted to marry Princess Jinluo so that he could get help to overthrow his uncle and take the throne.
Unfortunately, Princess Jinluo is a smart person and only cares about power and status.
Ye Yizhen shouted unwillingly, "I am also an heir."
Ge Shulin showed a mocking look on his face, "Are you really stupid? Or are you pretending? The Queen of Nanyue is the true bloodline of the Nanyue royal family. The throne will only be passed on to her children."
Previously, the eldest son born to the queen was made the crown prince at birth. After the crown prince and all the male offspring died, Princess Jinluo, born to her, became the only choice.
Ye Yizhen didn't know why, but she was extremely anxious and angry, and wanted to hit someone.
In addition, what Ge Shulin said greatly stimulated her.
"Nonsense, my father had already agreed to pass the throne to Jiang Wenzhou."
That's right, Li Wuyang was too powerful. He discovered the whereabouts of the Jiang family early on, and used a trick to lure them into a trap, and wiped out the entire Jiang family.
She hated Li Wuyang and Yun Zheng to death because they ruined her bright future.
One day, she will retaliate a hundredfold.
Ge Shulin just wanted to say that her naivety was ridiculous. "I'm just kidding you. Even if he agrees, those old ministers won't agree."
The previous emperor was no pushover. Although he passed the throne to his son-in-law, he also left enough reserves to ensure that the throne would be passed down through his bloodline.
"Do you really think Jiang Wenzhou and his son are unlucky?"
Ye Yizhen's heart tightened, "What do you mean?"
Ge Shulin said calmly, "Their whereabouts might have been betrayed to Prince Rui by the Queen a long time ago."
This is the real reason why the Jiang family failed.
Ye Yizhen was struck by lightning, and her vision went dark.
"Impossible, impossible."
Ge Shulin frowned slightly as he looked at the woman who was deeply shocked and had a pale face.
Really unpleasant, not his type.
But no matter what, she is the only princess in Nanyue. No matter how cruel the emperor of Nanyue is, he will not sit idly by.
"Okay, stop making trouble. I promise to treat you well in the future. As long as you are obedient, I will ensure that you will have a life of wealth and glory."
Ye Yizhen was filled with hatred. She hated the heavens and the earth, hated God for being unfair, hated her father for being partial, and even more hated the queen for being so cold-blooded and ruthless that she ruined her great cause for her own selfish reasons.
"Haha, you short-lived ghost, you can't even protect yourself..."
A trace of anger flashed in Ge Shulin's eyes, and he waved his hand fiercely, "Pa."
The string in Ye Yizhen's mind completely broke. Ahhhh, anyone dares to hit her.
"You dare to hit me?"
Ge Shulin suppressed her harshly, "Ye Yizhen, no one cares about you, and no one will support you. What if I hit you?"
"You are destined to fall into my hands. Whether you can survive depends on my mood..."
Suddenly, he felt a pain in his chest and abdomen, and his whole body trembled. "Ah."
A dagger was inserted into the chest and abdomen, and bright red blood slowly flowed down.
He was furious, "Ye Yizhen, you lunatic."
Ye Yizhen stared at the scene blankly, her eyes wide open.
She was just too angry and acted impulsively.
She quickly pulled out the dagger as if waking from a dream, turned around and ran, "It's not me, it's not me."
She was so flustered that she tripped over something and fell heavily to the ground.
The noise alarmed the imperial guards not far away, who all ran over and were stunned by the scene before them.
"Report it quickly, quickly."
When Li Wuyang and his group arrived, Ge Shulin grabbed Ye Yizhen's neck with both hands.
"Bitch, go to hell."
Ye Yizhen's eyes rolled back and her face turned red. It was obvious that she was about to die.
Li Wuyang sat still and watched coldly.
Yun Zheng stood beside him, pursed her lips slightly, and pinched them hard.
The envoys from Nanyue rushed forward to rescue Ye Yichen and finally managed to pull him away.
Ye Yizhen collapsed to the ground helplessly, coughing madly, with a hint of cruelty flashing in his eyes.
"I won't marry him, even if I'm beaten to death."
Ge Shulin's wound was very deep, but it did not hurt any vital parts. He sprinkled some medicine powder in time to stop the bleeding.
Seeing this, Yun Zheng sighed in disappointment.
Li Wuyang looked up at her, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
Ge Shulin's eyes were filled with poison. "Ye Yizhen, you have to marry me, even if you don't want to, unless you die."
Bitch, she's dead!
Ye Yizhen felt a strong hatred and felt both fear and resentment in her heart.
No, she couldn't just sit there and wait for death.
After this incident, everyone lost interest and the palace banquet ended abruptly.
When the envoys of the two countries returned to the post station, a fierce dispute broke out. The quarrel became more and more fierce and they even started fighting.
The guards outside didn't care and let them do whatever they wanted.
It was a new day again. Yun Zheng got up early and rushed to the Imperial Household Department.
This was her last day at the yamen before her marriage, and she had to hand over the work at hand.
Chief Steward Zhang rushed over immediately and asked with a smile, "Princess Jinyun, who do you plan to hand over the Guangchu Division to?"
Yun Zheng closed the file and said, "I'll let Chunhua take over for a few days."
Manager Zhang was stunned. "What? Temporary replacement?"
Yun Zheng smiled slightly, "I have no intention of handing Guangchusi over to anyone else. After I get married, I will come back."
This result was beyond Zhang Zongguan's expectations, and he couldn't help but get anxious, "Will he come back?"
"Princess Jinyun, I'm not saying anything bad about you, but a married woman should stay in the backyard, take care of her husband and children, and let her husband have no worries. This is what you should do."
"Besides, you've been so focused on your work that you've neglected Prince Rui. If he finds another woman, you'll lose more than you gain and regret it."
How could he not be excited? His plan had failed.
Yun Zheng is too big a threat to him and will replace him one day.
So, it is better to strike early than late.
Yun Zheng raised an eyebrow, "Manager Zhang, I have something for you."
She opened the drawer and took out a document.
Manager Zhang was a little puzzled. What was it? A gift? Was she finally sensible?
Unexpectedly, when he opened it and saw the contents, his face changed drastically.
"Where did this come from?"
Yun Zheng looked at his frightened expression, the corners of her mouth curled up slightly, and it was easy for her to control him.
"Prince Rui gave it to me. He said..."
Manager Zhang was sweating profusely from nervousness. "What did you say?"
