Reborn to choose a husband, I will lead the deposed prince to seize my ex-husband’s kingdom

No one spoke in the hall, and Xu Mingyue stopped talking. She didn't care if these people were anxious, let alone whether they would be punished after today.

In her previous life, these people had praised her for her good choice in front of her, and after returning home, they began to use her to lecture the women in the family.

It was said that she, Xu Mingyue, was shameless. She already had a fiancé, but she was afraid of power and would change her husband. Such a wanton woman was simply a disgrace to the government.

From then on, no one in the capital wanted to be her close friend, and she would be secretly teased at every party.

Because of these people's words, her brother broke into countless noble mansions with a spear, and then suppressed the rumors.

Zhao Gou was anxious and asked hurriedly: "Princess Mingyue, I dare to ask, Your Highness the Crown Prince will die soon. You have chosen her to be your husband. Have you thought about your future?"

As soon as he said these words, the room fell into a gloomier silence.

Xie Qingyao is still the prince. He is still alive. It can be said that he is seriously ill, but how can he say that he will not die soon?

And this question also confirmed the speculation in the minds of some courtiers: the late emperor and late empress who were assassinated were inseparable from their biological brother, King Chen.

Even if they had speculations and no evidence, no one dared to jump in front of Xie Yan and his son.

Xu Mingyue clenched her small fists tightly and said angrily: "My mother said that a daughter will not serve her husband. If my husband dies, I will treat him as his widower instead of choosing another son-in-law."

Grand Tutor Chen Hong, who had been silent all this time, twirled his beard and came to a conclusion: "She is indeed a daughter taught by the daughter-in-law of the Taichang Temple Minister. She knows etiquette and observance of etiquette at a young age."

"My prince likes Mingyue very much. I would like to ask Mingyue again why he chose the prince instead of my prince?"

The intimidation conveyed by King Chen's question made Xu Mingyue quite uncomfortable, so she had to crawl into Xu Jian's arms again, breathing loudly.

"God helped me choose. My favorite bracelet chose my husband for me."

A group of courtiers who used God's will to force Xu Mingyue began to deny their initial insistence: "There are human feelings outside of heaven's will. If God's will is ignored, who will the princess choose?"

These adults stopped pretending at all, and Xu Mingyue revealed her honest likes and dislikes: "I'd better choose the prince brother, because the prince brother is prettier than Prince Xie."

After saying this, Xu Mingyue looked in Xie Qingyao's direction and swallowed appropriately.

Seeing that everyone was still unwilling to let her go, Xu Mingyue created a new situation: "Brother Prince has been poisoned. When he recovers, his body and bones may not recover. I won't be afraid of him bullying me in the future."

"If Prince Xie is also poisoned and becomes like this, I think I can reconsider it."

"But when the two of us become like this, will everyone let me choose another fiancé?"

"Oh, it's too difficult for me." Raising her fleshy little hand to pat her forehead, Xu Mingyue raised her head and looked at Xu Jian: "Dad, how about I choose no one?"

"Okay, listen to us Yaoyao."

Xu Jian made the final decision, and Xie Yan and Xie Chongan personally set up the stage and sung the play. Under Xu Mingyue's seemingly child's play but actually interlocking style of play, it created a scene that almost everyone except Xu was dissatisfied with. period.

Xie Chongan tried his best to maintain his gentleness and sent the courtiers out of the East Palace. He stood at the door of the meeting hall and breathed several times before entering the room again.

The tea cup in Xie Yan's hand was hot and he smashed it straight towards Xie Chongan.

The hot air was thick and there were broken porcelain everywhere on the ground. Xie Yan asked: "Why can't you even coax a six-year-old child?"

Xie Chongan pursed his lips tightly and couldn't figure out why this win-win situation could be lost?

The golden beads that Xu Mingyue flicked into his eyes flashed in his mind, and the cloak that Xu Mingyue stepped on with her feet flashed in his mind. Xie Chongan suddenly felt that Xu Mingyue didn't seem to like him very much.

But as soon as this thought arose, he was overturned by Xie Chongan himself: "Father, Xu Mingyue did agree to me. I don't understand why she suddenly changed her mind."

Xie Yan didn't like to see Xie Chongan making excuses for himself, so he asked, "You mean she, a six-year-old child, dares to deceive me in front of so many people?"

Xie Chongan was so shocked that he didn't know how to respond.

How could a six-year-old lie in front of everyone?

Xie Chong'an thought about it, and then thought of Xu Mingyue's look at Xie Qingyao swallowing his saliva, and asked: "Women love beauty regardless of age. Is it because my son is not as good as Xie Qingyao?"

Looking up at Xie Yan, his father was not as good as the late emperor.

If that's the case, he shouldn't be entirely blamed for today's failure.

The little kid changed his mind when he saw Xie Qingyao's face. He didn't even care about the life or death of his parents and brothers. Xie Chongan had no choice.

If I had known earlier, I should have ruined Xie Qingyao's face first.

Xie Yan was angered by Xie Chongan's question and slapped the desk with his palm.

"Xie Chong'an, I have more than one son, you. I can still ascend the throne without the support of the Xu family, but you can't get Xu Mingyue's favor. Even if I really pass this country on to you, will you be able to take it?"

---

The courtiers who left the East Palace all looked gloomy. Today, both the courtiers from Prime Minister Zhao's group and the aristocratic family from Xu Jian's group were all waiting for Xu Mingyue to get off the road.

Xie Yan was only one step away from ascending to the throne by God's will. Without God's will, he would have no choice but to resort to iron-blooded killing methods to force the family to surrender.

A family with military power like the Xu family is naturally not afraid of such a battle, but other aristocratic families that rely on their reputation as nobles will have trouble sleeping every day.

There were only two choices before them, either to be killed by Xie Yan to show the value of killing chickens to scare monkeys.

Or give up the reputation of being noble, surrender to Xie Yan first, and invite the new emperor to ascend the throne.

Women are born of no great use, and no matter how important they are to the daughter of a noble family, they can only become a tool for marriage.

If there is a conflict of interest, the daughter who is married off will be the first to be sacrificed.

If sacrificing Xu Mingyue can bring peace to the family, why not do it?

But now, the situation is beyond repair. These aristocratic families can only pray that they are not the ones being used to scare the monkeys.

Xu Jian and Xu Mingqing didn't care at all about the strange looks in the eyes of the courtiers who came and went. The two father and son gathered together and looked at Xu Mingyue who was dug out of the bed and fell asleep.

The round little face in the past was now rosy, very similar to the boy under the seat of the Guanyin Queen.

Thinking of Xu Mingyue's agility today, Xu Jian's love surged so much that he couldn't hide it at all, and even the strength to hold Xu Mingyue became a little stronger.

Seeing that Xu Mingyue was breathing heavier, Xu Mingqing reached out towards Xu Jian's arms.

"Dad, hug me gently, be careful not to break Yaoyao."

Xu Jian raised his foot to scare Xu Mingqing away: "Your father, I can't match your brains, but you can't beat me. If you like your daughter, then find someone to marry and have one by yourself."

Xu Mingqing didn't mind if he couldn't grab Xu Jian, and just kept moving closer to Xu Jian.

Xu Mingqing understood Xu Jian's intention to occupy Xu Mingyue. His father spent more than half of the year on the battlefield, and every time he came home, he would bring a little more intention to make up for his little daughter.

It is not only to make up for his own pain of missing his daughter, but also to make up for Xu Mingyue's lack of father's love.

If the empress hadn't been assassinated this time, his father would have been unable to return home for another month.

But compared with returning home a month early, the entire town would rather the emperor and empress had not been assassinated.

Only under the rule of a wise king can virtuous ministers be born, and the change of ownership of the country is not a good thing for the government of the country.
