Xu Minglang's words told Xie Chongan very straightforwardly. He knew what role Xie Chongan played in this rumor.

Xie Chongan pretended that he didn't understand Xu Minglang's words and nodded towards Xiaobanzi, who then asked the little eunuch behind him to hand over the gift he had prepared.

Curbing his past hostility towards the Zhenguo Palace, Xie Chongan said in a calm voice: "There has been a lot of turmoil in the capital recently. I am worried that the princess will be disturbed by these rumors, so I came here to visit."

When Xie Chongan came to Zhenguogong's mansion today, he didn't care at all whether he could see Xu Mingyue or not.

He just hoped that he could have a chance encounter with Xie Chongyu when he left the Zhenguo Palace.

That's right, he knew in advance that Xie Chongyu was coming today, so he changed his plan temporarily and insisted on stabbing Xie Chongyu again.

After all, since he had taken the charge of the palace banquet and cruise, he had to pay some tribute to Xie Chongan.

Seeing Xie Chongan's changes today, Xu Mingliang led Xie Chongan into the Rain Storage Pavilion:

"My sister-in-law has been in a bad mood these days and doesn't want to see outsiders. I will convey King Cheng's wishes truthfully."

"Then I will help you Minglang." Xie Chongan looked at the scientific research books on the bookshelf with a friendly attitude: "Minglang, are you ready for next spring?"

Xu Minglang and Xie Chongan sat opposite each other, with a certain sense of ease and wantonness: "If King Cheng has something to say, he will say it directly."

"This businessman has always been humble. No matter how big the business is now, if the person in power says a word, he will become completely impoverished."

"So, you still have to hold real power to act arbitrarily."

"As for Conglong's merit, even if I don't take the imperial examination, I can still ensure a bright and prosperous official career."

"With the blessing of power, Mingming's business will definitely be able to go out of the capital and flourish in the land of Dayu Dynasty."

Xu Minglang's face was pure and clear, and he could not tell whether he was happy or angry: "Is it because of God's will that King Cheng doesn't want to give up his sister? Instead, he takes a fancy to my money?"

"Hahaha." Xie Chongan saw that Xu Minglang didn't answer his questions at all, and instead of being angry, he smiled: "I naturally understand that the princess is the key to my cooperation with Minglang."

"But now the current situation is in front of us. If the princess really lets Chongyu succeed, with the cooperation of me and Ming Lang, wouldn't it be possible to leave an escape route for the princess?"

Xu Minglang stood up from his seat, walked to Xie Chongan, and asked with a smile: "King Cheng, are you planning to kill your brother?"

"Family ties of flesh and blood, and ethical principles, I don't dare to do that."

Xie Chongan smiled and shook his head: "But if someone doesn't offend me, I won't offend anyone. If someone offends me, you won't allow me to fight back?"

"The government of our town does not lack the money to support Yaoyao. Since King Cheng and King Rui have already reached such a life-and-death situation, then Yaoyao may as well stay at home for a few more years."

At that point, Xu Minglang seemed to be saying that Xu Mingyue would marry the one who won. In fact, Xu Minglang never said from beginning to end that Xu Mingyue would choose one of the two brothers to spend the rest of her life.

"The fight for the right to win the right to the right is always about taking advantage of the opportunity. The Zhenguo Duke's Mansion was at a disadvantage in the last round of the battle to win the right to the right to the right of the right. I will present you with an opportunity today. Ming Ming should consider it carefully."

Seeing that the time was almost up, Xie Chongan took the initiative to say goodbye: "Thank you very much for the hospitality today. We will see you tomorrow."

"Then I won't send you away. It will be a good journey for you as King Cheng."

Looking at Xie Chongan's leaving figure, a smile appeared on Xu Minglang's lips.

This winner-takes-all game really set Xu Mingyue up.

Now in this capital city, everyone is a chess player, but everyone is just a pawn in the chess game of this mountain and river.

--

The carriage of Prince Rui's Mansion left the Prince's Mansion and headed directly towards the Zhenguo Duke's Mansion.

As he got closer and closer to Zhenguo's mansion, Xie Chongyu heard more and more rumors.

These rumors are nothing more than curses on Xu Mingyue, and sympathy for Xie Chongyu's request to marry Xu Mingyue despite the rumors.

Xie Chongyu heard these words every day. He heard them so often that even Xie Chongyu subconsciously believed them.

Now whenever he thinks of Xu Mingyue, Xie Chongyu will feel a little contempt or even disgust in his heart.

He, Xie Chongyu, had owned so many women, but none of them had ever been as reviled by thousands of people as Xu Mingyue.

But no matter how notorious Xu Mingyue was, Xie Chongyu had to reluctantly marry Xu Mingyue.

Who made his father have to play this trick of God's will to make up for his regrets because he never got what he wanted?

Stepping off the carriage, the smile in Xie Chongyu's eyes was pure and white, and he knew at a glance that he was an extremely kind man.

As soon as he stepped onto the steps of the Zhenguo Duke's Mansion, Xie Chongyu saw Xie Chongan coming out of the Zhenguo Duke's Mansion with a smile on his face.

The pace quickened, Xie Chongyu walked up to Xie Chongan, and said sarcastically:

"The princess's reputation is so bad, and the emperor's brother is really not picky at all for the position of the East Palace."

Thinking about the bit of information Xu Mingliang had just deliberately revealed, Xie Chongan naturally hoped to make Xie Chongyu a little more crazy.

"There are no fools in the Zhenguo Palace. The tricks you have been playing these days are destined to make it impossible for you to marry the princess by normal means again."

Xie Chongyu said: "Brother Emperor, all women in this world have expectations for love. If the princess knows that you have a foreign wife outside, do you think she will be willing to marry you?"

The expression on Xie Chongan's face stagnated for a very brief moment, and then he smiled and said: "She is just something I use to entertain myself. If the princess doesn't like her, just kill her."

"As for the things you did, I wonder if the princess will ever forget them in her lifetime?"

"I heard that the Duke of Zhen is planning to keep the princess for a few more years, probably until the crown prince's position is confirmed."

Looking at Xie Chongan's leaving back, the disguised whiteness and madness in Xie Chongyu's eyes blended together, with the possibility of breaking out at any time.

Two young men walked out of the mansion, kowtowed to Xie Chongyu, and then led Xie Chongyu towards the main hall.

Today's Xie Chongyu and Xie Chong'an who came for a temporary visit naturally have completely different treatment.

At this time, Xu Jian personally held the sword and waited in the courtyard. When Xie Chongyu came closer, the hilt of the sword in his hand hit Xie Chongyu's knee.

Severe pain came suddenly, and Xie Chongyu was forced to kneel down towards Xu Mingyue who was sitting behind the screen.

Not willing to even offer a perfunctory apology, Xu Jian picked up the scabbard from Xie Chongyu's knees, strode out of the main courtyard, and looked at Xie Chongyu with absolute hostility.

Lin Yan bent down and helped Xie Chongyu up, but his explanation voice was cold:

"His Royal Highness Prince Rui came here at the wrong time. My Duke was practicing his sword and accidentally hurt you. Please be patient."

The emperor's nobles actually knelt down to a woman whose integrity was compromised?

Threads of hatred bound Xie Chongyu's beating heart.

He looked at Xu Jian with cold eyes. How could he forgive him for being humiliated today?

No one paid attention to Xie Chongyu's emotions. Lin Yan turned around and walked out of the main hall, sitting down next to Xu Jian.

Xu Jian stood up and stood beside Lin Yan, stretching out his cloak to shield Lin Yan from the cold.
