There are still seven days left before the prince's wedding banquet.

The envoys from Zhao and Lu finally arrived in the capital.

Xiao Yifeng and Xiao Yifei were responsible for entertaining these two people.

From the Kingdom of Zhao is the second prince Zhao Yi, and from the Kingdom of Lu is the second princess Lu Jiayan.

Zhao Yi has a handsome face and a tall figure. He is two years older than the prince Xiao Yitu. He has no wives or concubines at home and is said to be not a womanizer.

However, judging from the investigation results, Zhao Yi has two concubines in his family, and he is not very favored.

It was given by Zhao Yi's mother-in-law.

Zhao Yi was the child of Emperor Zhao and a maid in the harem. After his mother died in childbirth, he was adopted and raised under the name of Concubine An in the harem.

Concubine An herself gave birth to a third prince and a fourth prince.

The data showed that Concubine An loved the second prince very much, doting more than her two biological sons, and even made Zhao Yi the leader of her two biological sons.

As for the facts... I'm afraid only Zhao Yi knows.

Lu Jiayan is eighteen years old, just at the age of marriage.

This woman opened the princess mansion early and raised many faces in the mansion.

What he likes most is to deal with all kinds of men. He doesn't care about his reputation. He is a carpe diemist.

Lu Jiayan has a gorgeous appearance, and there is an aura of charm in her movements. Ordinary men can't help but pay more attention to her when they see her.

This kind of woman is born to be a disaster.

After the Xiao brothers received Zhao Yi and Lu Jiayan, they arranged them in the embassy and prepared to meet Emperor Xiao again in a few days.

Lu Jiayan said softly: "Are the two princes just leaving like this? Why don't you stay and have a few drinks?"

Xiao Yifei was worried that Zi Ziwen would be jealous and did not dare to stay at the embassy any longer. When he saw Lu Jiayan, it was as if he had seen a ghost, standing far away for fear of being haunted by the ghost.

Xiao Yifei was still underage, but he had a kind of aura about him that kept strangers away from him. Even Lu Jiayan only dared to make a few teasing remarks but didn't dare to make a move.

She was afraid that the third prince would break her arm directly.

"If you have nothing to do, just stay at the embassy. You can go shopping around and buy whatever you want with your own money," Xiao Yifeng explained with a ruthless face.

Lu Jiayan: "..."

Her charm is useless in front of the Xiao brothers?

"Thank you, Second Prince, Third Prince."

She bowed and deliberately exposed half of her breasts, for fear that others would not see the love inside.

But the Xiao brothers seemed to be blind, just not seeing.

Zhao Yi, who was standing next to him, snorted and turned around to leave.

What he hates most is women using themselves as weapons, thinking how attractive they are.

If others don't take the bait, then what are the so-called weapons?

Might as well rely on yourself.

Lu Jiayan glared at Zhao Yi's back hatefully.

She knew that this man was not simple, his ambitions were careless, and his plans were not small.

Lu Jiayan originally wanted to seduce Zhao Yi, but the other party didn't even look at her, and even took off his clothes as if he couldn't see it. Lu Jiayan was so angry that she went to General Lu's room again that night.

It’s not like she doesn’t want a man!

After Zhao Yi returned to his room, his confidants said with some worry: "Your Highness, there is only one princess of marriageable age in the Xiao Kingdom, Xiao Ye'er. It is said that Xiao Ye'er is not favored in the Xiao Kingdom..."

Zhao Yi calmly took a sip of tea and said, "So what if you're not favored? What I want is a princess who's not favored."

"But……"

Why send troops to help them overthrow Zhao if they are not favored?

Zhao Guo is now different from what it was at the beginning.

Extravagant chaos.

The palace was in a state of intoxication, and even the emperor began to use people according to his own wishes indiscriminately.

I sent them here this time with no intention of letting them go back!

They are the hostages put here.

Zhao Guo and Lu Guo have been preparing their troops to attack Xiao Guo.

Who wouldn’t be greedy after looking at this prosperous land?

Zhao Yi glanced at his confidant lightly and said, "Be careful what you say!"

"Yes, Your Highness."

Xiao Yifei followed Xiao Yifeng and left, "Third brother, I think the people coming from these two countries are not good people. They don't look like good people. Is that Zhao Yi really going to marry the second emperor's sister?"

"How do I know?" Xiao Yifeng didn't care.

Love marriage is not marriage.

Xiao Yifei scratched his head, "Okay, then I don't care. I'll go back and deal with my father first."

"Well, you go ahead," Xiao Yifeng nodded, "I'll go to Cheng Mansion."

"Ah?" Xiao Yifeng ran away before Xiao Yifei could react.

"Third brother! Third brother!"

Why did he leave him alone to do the business again?

Can't we go together?

He is always clumsy and can't speak well. When the time comes and he is not satisfied with what he says, he doesn't know whether his father will be angry.

Hey!

Xiao Yifei returned to the palace and reported the situation to Emperor Xiao Lin as usual.

"What do you think of the princess of Lu State?" Xiao Lin suddenly asked.

Xiao Yifei didn't know why and said directly: "My son, I don't have any opinion."

If it were anyone else, they would have realized that Xiao Lin was testing him.

However, Xiao Yifei didn't know.

He didn't think his father wanted to test him either.

"The State of Lu may want to keep the princess for marriage this time," Xiao Lin said directly: "What do you think?"

Xiao Yifei still didn't react, "There seems to be no prince of the right age in the palace now, right?"

Xiao Lin's eyes fell on Xiao Yifei and said nothing.

This time, Xiao Yifei finally reacted!

He hurriedly knelt down, "My son... I don't want to!"

"Why?" Xiao Lin asked.

Naturally, he would not allow Xiao Yifei to marry the princess of Lu State, but he needed to know whether his son had this intention.

"I have a sweetheart," Xiao Yifei said with courage, "I don't want to make my sweetheart sad."

"It is normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines," Xiao Lin said nonchalantly: "She is just a princess of the Lu Kingdom, so it is inevitable to treat her as an equal."

"My son is unwilling." Xiao Yifei insisted: "My son has long been accustomed to living in the border areas over the years, and will always insist on guarding the country in the border areas in the future. I ask my father to help me."

"It's not easy to explain to your mother and concubine." Xiao Lin sighed.

Xiao Yifei raised his head and looked at Xiao Lin with firm eyes, "A man has aspirations in all directions. Without a country, there is no family. Please help me, Father!"

Such was his determination.

Even though he could not appear openly with Ziwen in front of others in his life, he would never break the promise he made to Ziwen.

Xiao Lin said hello several times, "In that case, I won't force you. As for your sweetheart..."

When Xiao Yifei heard this, his heart was in his throat.

He was afraid that Xiao Lin would ask him who his sweetheart was and would bring him out to meet him.

"He is just an ordinary family in the border area." Xiao Yifei said hurriedly.

Logically speaking, it is very inappropriate for a prince to marry an ordinary family.

However, Xiao Lin didn't need to rely on Xiao Yifei, his son, to stabilize his power in the court, so he didn't bother to care.

"Since you want to marry someone, don't be stingy with the betrothal gift. The royal family can still afford these."

"I understand, thank you, Father." Xiao Yifei was full of regrets. He really hoped that one day he could get married to Ye Ziwen in a legitimate manner.

What he didn't know was that his younger brother would take his place first.
