Isn’t it good for the five of us to be together?

"What's beautiful?"

Chi Wanshen came over from nowhere, and I calmly folded the note in my hand. Even if I lost my vest, I wouldn't panic. He didn't expose me anyway, so I just lived in a muddle.

I spoke before the little emperor: "Your Majesty thinks the decoration in the palace today is very beautiful."

The little emperor looked at me doubtfully, and I winked at him: Your Majesty keeps this secret.

Little Emperor: "Ah... yes, it's very beautiful."

Chi Wanshen: "That's it?"

I nodded.

Chi Wan took a deep look at the things on the table and didn't ask any more questions. She just said, "But will the county master still wear this bell later?"

I wondered: "What's wrong with this bell?"

Chi Wanshen: "I don't believe that the county master still doesn't know the purpose of this bell."

I pursed my lips, hesitated for a while and said, "Nothing, just wear it."

Chi Wanshen looked at me with dark eyes: "The county master treats the Imperial Master really unusually. Does the county master still have the string of silver ornaments that I gave him?"

Chenshi put on her makeup and wanted to put it on, but she had too many accessories on her body. If he were to wear silver jewelry, wouldn't it look even more fancy than him?

I shook my head a bit.

When Chi Wanshen saw this, she let out a light chuckle and then left on her own.

Little Emperor: "So he came here just to ask you whether you are wearing any silver jewelry?"

I was also puzzled: "I dare not speculate casually."

Still holding the piece of paper in my hand, it seemed that I was calm and relaxed, but in fact I was already worried. I had to find an opportunity to test Chi Wanshen, otherwise I would not be able to sleep well that night.

But if Chi Wanshen knew that I was Chen Yueji, then why didn't he expose me for so long? Now we are still performing this kind of drama with me in front of Ling Hengyuan Qin Che, which is of no benefit to him.

If he had known my identity for a long time, then when Ling Hengyuan confronted me today, he should have exposed me and told them that I was Chen Yueji, and then used me as a bargaining chip to offer higher conditions instead of standing aside and watching. play.

Unless he thinks I'm worthless in Linghengyuan and can't exchange for anything.

It shouldn't be. Ling Hengyuan has proposed two cities for replacement. Is the value of my stay in Beiyin higher than the two cities?

Obviously, I didn't.

Therefore, he must not have recognized me.

The more things went on in my head, but I became more certain that Chi Wanshen definitely didn't recognize me.

It was time for the banquet, and all the guests took their seats one after another. Jiang Yuchen also arrived at the right time. He and I were sitting next to each other. As soon as we sat down, he asked me: "Is anyone giving you a hard time today?"

I thought about it and said, "Never."

Jiang Yuchen: "But I heard that His Majesty Nanyang and the general left the palace today. They seemed very angry."

"Is the Imperial Master so well-informed?"

Jiang Yuchen calmly took a sip of tea: "You're afraid that your things will be targeted, so it's better to be careful."

I didn't understand, so I just said: "The Emperor of Nanyang offered me two cities to marry me. Is this considered an embarrassment?"

Jiang Yuchen: "...?"

Jiang Yuchen: "You... agreed?"

I imitated him and calmly took a sip of tea: "Of course I didn't agree. How can I do this kind of thing? Although the regent was moved by the conditions he offered."

Jiang Yuchen: "He sold you?"

Me: "The Prince Regent is not that kind of villain."

Jiang Yuchen: "He is."

I saw Jiang Yuchen's too determined eyes and hesitated to speak.

"Cough cough."

Yunze reminded him at the right time: "Master, the prince is coming from the rear left."

Turning around to look over, Chi Wanshen was looking at us from behind with raised eyebrows and curled lips, obviously having heard the conversation we just had.

Jiang Yuchen looked calm, but it seemed that I had a guilty conscience.

Chi Wanshen: "Has the county master thought about how to reject the Nanyang Emperor?"

Um? Didn’t you already refuse it when you were in the main hall?

Ling Hengyuan is so shameless, he will definitely not mention the same thing again and again.

probably not……

Ling Hengyuan: "I came to the banquet this time because I am willing to maintain good diplomatic relations with your country and have friendly exchanges with each other."

After he finished speaking, a group of Nanyang envoys echoed below.

A minister of Beiyin stood up and said: "Your Majesty's empty words are unfounded, and I really dare not respond to them."

The Nanyang envoy said: "Our Majesty naturally comes with enough sincerity." He gestured with two fingers.

Minister Beiyin: "Two thousand taels of gold?"

Nanyang envoy: "They are two cities."

The audience was in an uproar.

Minister Beiyin beamed with joy: "Your Majesty is really generous..."

The Nanyang envoy took the opportunity to interrupt him: "Of course, our Majesty has other conditions."

Minister Beiyin: "I am willing to listen attentively."

Nanyang envoy: "The past dynasties have cultivated good neighborliness through marriage. Today, our Majesty fell in love with the county magistrate of your country at first sight. He is willing to use two cities as a betrothal gift to marry the county magistrate with the highest wedding etiquette in Nanyang. I don't know about your country. how about?"

There was another uproar in the audience.

I couldn't ignore Ling Hengyuan's gaze, and I was already a little out of breath.

The ministers of Beiyin were having a heated discussion. After all, from the looks of it, one county lord can be exchanged for two cities without using any soldiers. This transaction is obviously worth it.

So it was within my expectation that they agreed with this matter. Ling Hengyuan is putting the matter out in the open and forcing me to submit.

I really stared back angrily.

"Chen Yueji" has only been dead for half a year. Now he wants to get a wife? Damn, the dog emperor is so sentimental.

Jiang Yuchen has been holding back and saying nothing. I know there is nothing he can do to stop me. The conditions offered by this dog emperor are really too tempting.

I gestured to Chi Wanshen, stood up and left the table.

Although what they were discussing was a major matter of my life, it was not up to me and I was too lazy to listen to their loyalty and advice.

On the way to the Royal Garden, I knew someone was following me, so I entered the rockery sideways. When the person wasn't paying attention, I prepared to stab his chest with the hairpin in my hand, but he dodged it easily.

"The county boss is really cruel."

"If your Majesty doesn't stay well at the banquet, why are you following this county leader?"

Ling Hengyuan smiled and said: "Then why did the county master leave the table? They were discussing things between me and the county master. Isn't the county master curious whether I will become your husband?"
