"For the Lin family girl?"

His Majesty's voice was indescribably cold.

Pei Yanli did not speak for a long time. In fact, ever since he knew that His Majesty had been treating the Queen harshly, he actually did not want to see him again.

Pei Yanli hated his own incompetence for not being able to pull the queen out of the abyss, but he also hated His Majesty's rudeness.

If it weren't for Lin Tingwan, Pei Yanli wouldn't even want to come here.

He gritted his teeth and said, "Why did father marry Yangyang to my uncle? She should be my crown princess."

His Majesty sneered, "It's because my deceased father is still restless after his death."

As he said this, His Majesty threw the imperial edict on the table to Pei Yanli, and he subconsciously reached out to take it.

The imperial edict clearly stated that if Pei Jinan was not the king in the future, the king would unconditionally satisfy his wishes, be friendly to his brother and respectful to his younger brother, and spare his life at any time.

It seemed as if the late emperor had anticipated that Pei Jinan would be pushed off the throne. This imperial edict was like a golden medal of immunity from death.

"So he used this imperial edict to exchange for Yangyang?" Pei Yanli asked in disbelief.

His Majesty nodded silently.

"But how can Yangyang marry the emperor's uncle? This is against the rules."

His Majesty calmed down and said, "Prince Gong has a very high prestige among the people. This is a devastating blow to him, but it is a good thing for us. After all, she is just a woman. Father will find a few more for you later."

Pei Yanli looked at His Majesty with disappointment when he heard this, "Father, no matter how many women there are in this world, none of them can compare to Yangyang. There will only ever be Yangyang as my first wife."

His Majesty sneered, "When Prince Gong came here, he said the same thing as you. I really don't know what kind of magic power the girl of the Lin family has."

"Unfortunately, the person in her heart is your uncle, not you."

Pei Yanli's heart skipped a beat when he heard that. The thing he was most worried about finally happened. The two of them ended up together after many twists and turns.

"This is impossible, this is impossible." Pei Yanli refused to believe what His Majesty said.

His Majesty sneered and looked at Pei Yanli with some pity, "You'd better resolve this matter. I don't need a crown prince who only cares about women and love!"

Pei Yanli saluted his Majesty with a complicated expression and then stepped back.

He rode out of the palace and headed straight for the Lin Mansion.

……

Lin Tingwan's guess was correct. Soon the whole Shangjing City was in an uproar because their hero was going to marry his nephew's unmarried Crown Princess as his princess.

After a while, Lin Mingqian rushed back in a hurry.

This was within Lin Tingwan's expectations. "Dad——"

"Come with me."

Lin Mingqian brought Lin Tingwan to the study. As soon as they sat down, they received news that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had arrived.

Lin Mingqian suddenly felt as if he was facing a formidable enemy, and slowly asked, "Yangyang, go hide in the backyard for a while."

Lin Tingwan shook his head firmly, "Dad, there is no way to avoid the disaster. Sooner or later, I will have to face His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

As soon as he finished speaking, anxious footsteps were heard in the yard. Lin Tingwan and Lin Mingqian looked at each other and slowly stood up.

The next moment the door opened, and Pei Yanli was standing at the door with an angry look on his face. Butler Bai followed him, nodding and bowing. After seeing the two of them, Butler Bai was obviously relieved.

Lin Mingqian said calmly, "You go down first."

"Yes--"

Pei Yanli was furious when he came here, but when he saw Lin Tingwan, he suddenly became calm.

He slowly walked up to Lin Tingwan, who was stunned and subconsciously took a step back.

"Yangyang, you know that I will never be angry with you at any time."

These words were touching. "Please be careful with your words, Your Highness. I will be your aunt in the future. It would be bad if someone misunderstood me."

As soon as these words were spoken, Lin Mingqian couldn't help but feel that Lin Tingwan was truly courageous. Even his own father couldn't stand to hear this. Wasn't this just rubbing salt into someone else's wounds?

He was ready to save people at any time, but Pei Yanli remained very calm.

He smiled faintly and said, "Yangyang I have something to discuss with you."

Lin Tingwan raised her head but remained unmoved, "Now that I am the future princess consort of Prince Gong, you and I should not be alone together."

Hearing this, Pei Yanli poked his lips with his tongue, but finally suppressed his anger and nodded helplessly, "Okay, in that case, it would be better to let General Lin stay here, right?"

Lin Mingqian lowered his head and didn't even dare to look at Pei Yanli, for fear that the fire would burn him.

Lin Tingwan was fine, but that didn't mean he would be fine after hearing something he shouldn't have heard.

"You agreed to marry the emperor's uncle?"

Lin Tingwan nodded slightly.

Pei Yanli frowned and asked in confusion, "Why?"

Lin Tingwan's voice was cold. He looked at him without blinking and slowly asked, "Are you the one playing with me on the lake?"

Pei Yanli never expected that Lin Tingwan would ask such a question. He closed his eyes, lowered his head, shook his head and said, "I never said I was alone."

He was a proud man and was unwilling to lie at this time.

Indeed, he never said it, but Lin Tingwan had misunderstood it all along and thought it was him after seeing it was him.

"So everything that happened later was not you."

Pei Yanli remained silent, but Lin Tingwan knew what he meant.

She was furious and said angrily, "But you kept making me think it was you! I fell in love with you! You just watched me like that, you wanted to make fun of me, didn't you?"

"I never meant that."

Pei Yanli tried to explain, but Lin Tingwan wouldn't listen to him. She sneered and said, "Forget it. Now that I marry him, it's the best outcome for us."

"Your Highness, it's better not to force some things."

"Then what are the decades between us? Tell me! What is it! What is Tuanzi?" Pei Yanli's eyes were slightly red and his voice was trembling, as if he had to get to the bottom of it.

At this moment, Lin Mingqian didn't understand at all. He kept wondering in his mind what a dumpling was.

"I have been separated from Tuanzi for so many years, and it was all your fault! How dare you bring it up?"

"No! In short, I will never allow you to marry the emperor's uncle! I will not allow it!"

At this moment, Pei Jinan's cold voice sounded from outside, "Your Highness, don't yell at your future aunt, it's against the rules."

Pei Jinan opened the door and walked in, looking at the two of them.
