You don’t know if you don’t read. The royal family was shocked after reading the mind.

Rumors spread that the third prince of the Xiao Kingdom had married a boy as his concubine.

The princesses and princes of Zhao and Lu who were originally preparing to leave were forced to stay in Xiao due to the resumption of war.

After hearing the news, people from both countries felt that the third prince acted independently.

"Zhao Yi, if you want to marry the second princess of Xiao State, it is probably impossible," Lu Jiayan said mockingly: "Zhao State doesn't care about your life or death at all. You are still in Xiao State, so they will just send troops. "

This is not to put Zhao Yi's life and death out of the question.

Zhao Yi looked calm and was too lazy to talk to Lu Jiayan.

Although the Lu State is currently not sending troops, it does not mean that the Lu State is sitting on the sidelines.

According to the nature of the two countries, they have long wanted to divide the Xiao country's land equally.

The reason for quietly sending out troops this time was to rely on Xiao Guo's large army to return to the capital, just to catch them by surprise.

However, he felt that Zhao Guo would not succeed.

"Zhao Yi, you don't think you still have a chance to survive, do you?"

Seeing that Zhao Yi was unmoved, Lu Jiayan felt even worse.

She is used to using her charm to achieve her goals.

However, Zhao Yi repeatedly ran into obstacles.

No one can escape her charm.

In Lu country, as long as she hooked her finger, the man would pounce on her without any resistance.

Zhao Yi frowned, looked at Lu Jiayan's coquettish appearance indifferently, and said calmly: "Put away what you learned from some people in Miao territory. Not everyone is weak-minded and easily tempted."

"You..." Lu Jiayan bit her red lips, feeling very angry about what had been revealed.

"Just wait, whether it is the Zhao State or the Xiao State, they are all in the possession of our Lu State!"

After she finished her harsh words, she pinched her waist and left.

Zhao Yi ignored Lu Jiayan's harsh words and turned to leave.

Zhao Guo's sudden dispatch of troops this time may prevent him from marrying Xiao Ye'er.

Zhao Yi has no idea who to marry as his wife. For him, marriage is something that can be traded.

It must be the same for Xiao Yeer.

They each get what they need.

Unfortunately, the Zhao army is now approaching the border, directly destroying his plan.

I really don’t regard him as a prince.

His father never paid much attention to him, let alone his life.

Such a royal family...

Zhao Yi clenched his fists, his heart filled with unwillingness and resentment.

"Second prince, the second princess of Lu State is so confident. Did Lu State find some secret technique in Miao territory?" His subordinate asked worriedly.

The land of Lu occupies a rather special location, with part of it close to the southern border and part of it close to the Miao border.

It is said that there are some mysterious people in Miao territory who are good at using medicinal materials and spices to confuse people.

Lu Guo has always wanted to cooperate with the Miao border, but with little success.

He probably learned these secret techniques of enchantment by bribing some people from the Miao border.

Zhao Guo has always been curious about what kind of cooperation Lu Guo has reached with the ethnic groups in the Miao border. He sent countless spies who either returned without success or died directly in Lu Guo.

Anyway, there is no news at all.

This time Zhao State chose to send troops, but Lu State stood still. This is probably not a small matter.

Zhao Yi raised his hand and said, "This matter will be discussed later."

Don't talk about your own country's affairs in other people's places.

Who knows if there might be spies nearby eavesdropping.

"Yes, Second Prince." He lowered his head and said.

Zhao Yi knew that he should not be anxious now, "Don't worry about what Zhao and Lu want to do for now. We will wait patiently for the leader of Xiao to let us leave."

"Will the Lord of the Xiao Kingdom really let us leave?" his subordinates asked worriedly.

Zhao Yi put his hands behind his back and affirmed: "If it is valuable, of course it will be. If it is not valuable, what does it matter where you die?"

This world is so cruel.

When Cheng Hao returned to Cheng Mansion, he felt very bad when he saw the atmosphere in the house.

He did not dare to do anything to displease the royal family, so he said: "Today is Ling'er's big day. Remember to send off the guests properly and don't do anything to embarrass the Cheng family."

Cheng Yi and He Wanran looked ashamed, "Dad... I'm sorry."

If Cheng Ling hadn't been ignorant, Cheng Hao wouldn't have suddenly lost his position as Taifu in his later years.

Cheng Hao could see clearly that even if Cheng Ling hadn't been involved today, His Majesty would have used other things to make him resign.

Who makes him feel that the prince has become more and more independent in the past two years, and he can't help but interfere in some of the prince's decisions and ideas.

He is too self-righteous and thinks that he is the prince's teacher and can change and teach the prince.

He forgot that a king is a king and a minister is a minister.

He always puts the Xiao family members in the role of villagers in the mountains. He feels that the Xiao family members don't understand anything, and they don't think as long-term, as much, and as deeply as he does.

Little did he know, he had crossed the line.

"Brother and sister-in-law, you are going too far," Cheng Bo scolded: "We are all scholars after all, how can we be so superstitious? It is ridiculous to believe that a man can escape any disaster by dressing up as a woman. Now that he is fine, he is still involved. Dad lost his official position!"

At this time, Luo Qianqian, who had been knocked unconscious by Xiao Yifeng's secret guard, rushed out, "Ms.-in-law, father-in-law, it turns out that Cheng Ling is a boy. She is deceiving the emperor by disguising herself as a woman!"

Luo Qianqian eavesdropped on the conversation between Cheng Yi and He Wanran before, clamoring to expose that Cheng Ling was knocked unconscious by the secret guards arranged by Xiao Yifeng.

Cheng Yi and He Wanran woke up first and heard that Cheng Hao had retired and returned to his hometown, resigning from office to take care of his old age.

They all thought it was because of Cheng Ling, so they quickly came out to accuse him.

Luo Qianqian woke up slowly. She didn't know the truth of the matter yet, so she rushed out to reveal the secret of the big house.

Humph, I always said that their second and third bedrooms are not as good as big ones.

What now?

At least her daughter married into the Hou Mansion and became his wife.

Cheng Ling must be punished if he is guilty of deceiving the emperor.

Cheng Bo pulled his wife beside him and talked about the current situation.

Luo Qianqian was shocked when she heard this, "What? Brother and sister-in-law, you actually caused my father-in-law to lose his official position. You are so unfilial!"

Cheng Yi and He Wanran also thought that they had harmed Cheng Hao. They looked guilty and could not speak, and they did not even dare to refute.

Cheng Yun said directly: "In my opinion, it is better to separate the family as soon as possible."

He said disgustedly: "I said before that we should separate our families as early as possible, so that we won't implicate each other. Dad, you are too soft-hearted, and that's why eldest brother and his family have been implicated to the point where they no longer have official positions."

Cheng Hao stared at Cheng Yun coldly, as if he wanted to penetrate Cheng Yun.

He didn't say who was the one who caused him trouble. These people either blamed themselves or shirked their responsibilities. They were all worried about having a bad life in Cheng Mansion in the future, but no one cared about his mood!

It would be better not to have these sons!
