Upon learning that the Lu family intended to found a new country, Cui Ying actually looked forward to marrying Lu Linchu.

After all, he is Lu Chen's only son and has been the crown prince since the founding of the country.

But he knew Lu Linchu very well. Apart from sympathy and pity for him, he also wanted to win over the hearts of the people of Dali and did not have any love for him at all.

As for nobility, her family background is now just an empty shell and cannot compare to the Fu family at all.

Ye Zhilan is devoted to promoting the Crown Prince's Consort and the Fu family. It is feared that no matter how favored a woman is in the palace in the future, she will not be half as noble as the Crown Prince's Consort.

She and Nanny Yu discussed it for a long time and agreed that if she really entered Lu Linchu's harem, she would inevitably have a miserable ending in the future.

She had to seize the opportunity and rely on her seemingly respectable background to find a backer for herself as soon as possible.

But she couldn't bring up such a matter, so she had to ask Yu Ma to speak first: "Being loved by the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess is a blessing my young lady has earned in her previous life. Now that Daning is about to be founded, the stability of Jiangzuo is particularly important. My young lady is willing to share the Crown Prince's worries."

The old lady's words were tactful, and everyone knew that since Lu Linfeng had occupied Jiurong City, he did need to be appeased.

Hearing this, Lu Linchu did not beat around the bush and said bluntly: "I am very pleased that Ying'er has such a heart. My father and I have always hoped that you would have a good home. You also know that my eldest brother has not married yet. He will soon be crowned the Prince of Li. Such a large palace will always need someone to manage it. You going to Jiurong City will just help her take care of the affairs of the fiefdom."

As soon as he finished speaking, Cui Ying responded without hesitation: "I will never let you down, brother. I am willing to share your worries and take good care of Jiurong for you and me."

In her heart, she was looking forward to marrying Lu Linfeng, but she did not mention a word about protecting Lu Linfeng. Instead, she said it for Daning, which made Lu Linchu very satisfied.

He smiled and glanced at Fu Guiyun, nodded with satisfaction and said, "It's settled. Ying'er, you can go back and wait for the marriage decree."

"Thank you, brother."

Cui Ying stood up happily, bowed respectfully to the couple, and then left in a hurry with Nanny Yu.

Seeing her so excited, Fu Guiyun couldn't tell whether Cui Ying's trip to Jiurong City was a good or bad thing.

Lu Linfeng's personality is hard to fathom, and now the whereabouts of the jade seal remains a mystery. She really hopes that this woman can restrain Lu Linfeng.

Lu Linchu didn't know what she was thinking. Anyway, he got rid of Cui Ying. He was also very happy. He picked up the bird's nest and shark's fin porridge on the table and fed it to Fu Guiyun, smiling and signaling: "Eat some more."

Fu Guiyun responded lightly and took a few more bites to get by.

Looking at his gentle appearance and thinking about meeting Song Weizhao soon, Fu Guiyun felt inexplicably sad.

Although that was a grudge from the previous life, his selfishness and coldness always make people feel uneasy whenever they think of it.

She tried hard to convince herself that the grudge that should be settled had already been settled. If she saw those two people again, she would just treat them as strangers, without joy or sadness.

Only by maintaining a calm mind can we seize the initiative and maintain the stability of Jiangzuo.

At this time in the Jiangbei camp, Song Weizhao was kneeling in the commander-in-chief's camp in a very dejected manner, and Nalan Yiqing was extremely anxious when he saw this.

As she waited for waves of soldiers to come in and report, she learned that her father-in-law's remains had not been found. She had no choice but to comfort Song Weizhao first: "Your Majesty, your father-in-law must have been bewitched by the father and son of the Lu family. You must not be deceived. You should cheer up and send troops to capture Jiangzuo as soon as possible to avenge your father-in-law."

The slap in the face in front of the battle was the first time that Fu Yuanshu saw Song Weizhao so angry with her. She was still frightened at this moment and stayed by his side, not daring to speak for a long time.

It was not until Nalan Yiqing cast an angry look at her that she stepped forward and persuaded him, "Your Majesty, what Princess Nalan said is true. Emperor Hui hated the Liyang Palace the most before, but my elder sister dared to risk the world's disapproval and rescued my father and mother. She must have been instigated by the Lu family father and son, waiting to set a trap for you this time."

Looking at Song Weizhao, she said earnestly: "The Lu family army is no match for my Great Yan soldiers. They can only rely on these means to deceive Your Majesty. Your Majesty must not be fooled. You must not go to see my elder sister this time."

Thinking about how these two people killed his parents in front of the battlefield, Song Weizhao was still furious and had no intention of paying any attention to them.

Thinking about how Guiyun risked her life to save his parents and younger brothers and sisters, but he repaid her with evil and almost harmed her father, he now felt only guilt and self-blame, and he had to go and see her no matter what.

Thinking of this, he stood up resolutely and walked out of the tent.

"His Majesty."

Nalan Yiqing and Fu Yuanshu chased after him at the same time.

But just as he was about to approach him, he was stopped by Song Weizhao's fierce look.

"Brother Rong, you are now the emperor of Dayan. Do you want to abandon this huge country?"

Nalan Yiqing had never been so scared as she was today, and begged bitterly, "The woman from Jiang Zuo is now the mistress of the Lu family and the future empress of Daning. She will not care about her old relationship with you. If something happens to your majesty during this trip, what should I and the people of Dayan do?"

Fu Yuanshu also said: "She is a scheming woman. How can it be worth it for Your Majesty to take such a big risk to meet her?"

Song Weizhao became even angrier as he listened, and glared at the two of them coldly: "Neither of you can even remotely compare to her."

His voice was almost a roar: "Look at your behavior. One of you is willing to abandon your own flesh and blood for the position of queen, and the other one keeps saying how much you love me, but for your own selfish reasons, you even spared my parents."

These words made the two of them feel extremely ashamed.

Nalan Yiqing immediately rushed forward, blocked his way, and shouted at the top of his lungs: "Brother Rong, I was just anxious for the moment, I didn't mean to harm my father-in-law and mother-in-law."

Song Weizhao pushed her away and walked straight forward.

"Your Majesty is unwilling to stay for me, so do you not want your own flesh and blood?"

Nalan Yiqing said anxiously: "If you fall into that woman's trap this time, who can my child and I rely on in the future? Can we rely on that woman to sympathize with us and let us live?"

Upon learning that the princess was pregnant, Song Weizhao stopped in his tracks, turned around to look at her, and asked happily, "When did the princess become pregnant? Why didn't you tell me?"

Nalan Yiqing curled her lips in grievance: "Your Majesty has been very bitter and resentful towards me these days, how dare I say anything."

For the sake of the child, Song Weizhao couldn't continue to be angry with her no matter how unhappy he was. He said softly, "You should go back and rest well since you are pregnant. Don't get angry. I will accompany you when I come back from the Li River."

Even though he had already used all his trump cards, he still insisted on meeting that woman. Nalan Yiqing was very angry: "Why is your majesty still thinking about her?"

Fu Yuanshu was also very angry. She didn't expect that her elder sister was so important to Song Weizhao. What she didn't expect was that Princess Nalan became pregnant without any notice.

I clearly consummated my marriage with Song Weizhao before her, so why did she get pregnant while I didn't?
