Wu Tong beside her listened silently to the plan the two were discussing. Having been in the capital for so long, she had always wanted to show her courtesy to the prince, but the other party never gave her a chance.

But he treated Princess Chaoxi particularly differently. I thought the prince had taken a fancy to her, but for some reason, his attitude had become much colder during this period.

In addition, Wu Congyu had warned her not to tell the Queen Mother about the subtle relationship between the Prince and Cui Yingying, so she could only sit and wait for death.

I didn’t expect that even though his last proposal failed, he still hasn’t given up.

No matter what the prince thinks of Cui Yingying, as long as she marries Wu Congyu, it will be beneficial to him in every way.

"Then I'll have to trouble you, aunt. I'll take my leave first." Wu Congyu turned around with a calm smile, the pride of a winner on his face.

Wu Tong bowed and followed him. She caught up with him in two or three steps and said with a caring look, "Brother, do you really want to marry Princess Chaoxi? Her parents are both dead and she has no one to rely on. I'm afraid my father won't agree, right?"

Wu Congyu slowed down his pace, tapping his palm with the thin folding fan in his hand. Hearing this, he glanced at her meaningfully, "Isn't this just what you wished for?"

"Put away your little tricks. To be the Crown Princess, these tricks are not enough."

Wu Tong clenched her hands in anger, but she didn't dare to refute him. She could only swallow her anger and said with a forced smile: "Brother, what are you talking about... I just care about you."

She couldn't say that she really wanted to see Wu Congyu and his father breaking up, right?

Wu Congyu smiled contemptuously and ignored her. His arrogant look was really infuriating.

The maid behind her hurriedly caught up and asked worriedly, "Miss, are you okay?"

"One day, I will make him kneel in front of me." Wu Tong said with red eyes and gritted teeth.

She is determined to get the position of Crown Princess.

"what?"

"Is Wu Congyu looking for death?"

The news that Wu Congyu had entered the palace to ask the Queen Mother for permission soon reached the Prince's Mansion.

The little princess, who had gotten drunk with Cui Yingying yesterday, jumped up in anger and was furious when she heard the news.

In contrast, Xiao Su seemed much calmer.

"The Queen Mother told Your Highness not to worry, she will do her best to stop it. His Majesty also knows your intention and I don't think he will agree." The nanny who came to deliver the message hunched her back and spoke softly to comfort him.

Princess Xiyun was not one to sit still. She paced back and forth in the room with her hands on her hips. She touched her nose, her eyes full of murderous intent, and looked at her brother who was sitting at the desk. "Brother, as long as you give the order, I will go and kill Wu Congyu. This matter will never implicate you."

"If he dies, wouldn't that give the Wu family a perfect excuse to rebel? What do you think they want? The position of Crown Princess?" Xiao Su asked back without changing his expression.

What the Wu family wanted was a puppet emperor, and this candidate was obviously not between himself and his eldest brother, so it must be someone else.

If Wu Congyu really died, that old guy far away in the world would not let it go.

A lean camel is bigger than a horse, and there will be another chaos.

"Father, you know that he attaches great importance to filial piety. If the old witch, the Queen Mother, keeps nagging him every day, your father will definitely be shaken." Princess Xiyun sat down on the chair next to her in frustration and spread her hands helplessly.
