"If you continue to be so confused and stupid, I will send you to the family temple for meditation and marry a concubine for the eldest brother!"

"Mother, please don't...I was wrong."

"grandmother..."

Just as Lu Jingting was about to plead for his mother, the old lady interrupted him, "Your grandfather knelt before the emperor for three days to beg for this marriage. If you let Yun Xi completely lose heart, then the Prince of Zhennan Palace will never be you, Lu Jingting!"

Seeing the indifference in the old lady's eyes, Lu Jingting murmured silently, "Yes."

"Madam, the princess is here and has entered the courtyard." Yuanyang reported softly outside the door.

The old lady took a deep breath and said sternly, "Everyone, get up!"

Several people quickly collected their thoughts, straightened their clothes, and pretended to be normal.

As soon as Xiao Yunxi came in, she saw Lin Wan'er standing with her head bowed, her mother-in-law covering her face, Lu Jingting who looked like he had lost his parents, and... the old lady who was forcing a smile.

...what happened?

Lu Jingting is determined to marry Lin Wan'er, will the old lady break them up?

She walked forward, greeted the old lady and Nguyen, and asked, "Grandma, you called me here, is there anything you want me to do?"

The old lady smiled and said, "No, I just want you to come and have dinner with me."

Looking at the old lady who was smiling so kindly, Xiao Yunxi understood in her heart that it seemed that these people had done something wrong to her again.

Just then, Sister Yuan ran in, "Grandma, mother, there are so many beautiful flowers outside."

As soon as she stepped over the threshold, she saw Xiao Yunxi.

Ruan reminded her urgently: "Why don't you greet your mother?"

"Greetings, mother!"

Xiao Yunxi sneered, "Which 'mother' are you paying your respects to?"

Sister Yuan looked at Lin Wan'er, then at Xiao Yunxi, pursed her lips and dared not speak.

The old lady thought to herself, it’s bad!

She said hurriedly, "Princess, what are you talking about? According to the secular clan law, whoever is named after her is the heir. She is your daughter now, so naturally she should call you 'mother'. She has no relationship with anyone else. At most, she can call you aunt."

Xiao Yunxi touched the handkerchief and said nothing.

The old lady quickly scolded Lin Wan'er, "Didn't you say you were not feeling well? Go back to your room quickly. What if you infect the child with your illness?"

Lin Wan'er felt very upset, but she had gotten into a big trouble today and didn't dare to resist at all.

"Wan'er will take her leave first."

Xiao Yunxi raised her head and asked, "Miss Lin, where are you feeling unwell? Do you want to see a doctor?"

"No... no thanks, thank you for your trouble, Princess!"

"Miss Lin is kind-hearted. She gave me the two children she gave birth to after ten months of hard work, so that I would not have an empty knee and a miserable old age. No matter how much she took care of me, it was what she deserved."

After saying that, Xiao Yunxi glanced at Lu Jingting.

Tsk tsk, his face was as black as the bottom of a pot, but he managed to hold back and not say anything... Interesting.

Lin Wan'er felt a pain in her heart and was speechless. Xiao Yunxi, you are so cruel!

The old lady glanced at Lin Wan'er and said, "The princess is virtuous. If you feel uncomfortable, go back and rest. Don't let the princess worry!"

"Yes."

As soon as Lin Wan'er turned around, she heard the old lady instructing the servants, "Go and bring Zhan'er and Ze'er over to have dinner with their father and mother!"

She bit her lip tightly and ran quickly back to her room.

After dinner, Princess Ruan took Lu Ze and Lu Yuan away first, and Lu Zhan also followed Xia He back to Feiyu Pavilion.

"Jingting, it's getting late, you should send Yunxi back home. Don't stay in the study every day studying military books, spend more time talking to Yunxi." After the old lady said this, she deliberately glanced at Lu Jingting.

Lu Jingting naturally understood what the old lady meant, and pursed his lips, "Yes."

As soon as the two walked into the courtyard, they saw Nanny Li walking hurriedly towards Lin Wan'er's room with a ruler in her hand. After a while, the sound of "pa pa pa" and Lin Wan'er's suppressed crying were heard.

Xiao Yunxi glanced at Lu Jingting inconspicuously and saw him clenching his fists and looking towards the wing room worriedly. He said disdainfully: "It seems that Miss Lin is seriously ill. If the prince is worried, go and see her immediately."

Upon hearing this, Lu Jingting looked back and was stunned when he saw the sarcasm and disdain in Xiao Yunxi's eyes.

"I...I'll take you back first..."

Xiao Yunxi smiled coldly and walked forward.

Lu Jingting didn't know what was wrong with him. Seeing Xiao Yunxi's mocking eyes, he suddenly didn't want to save Lin Wan'er...

As soon as she reached the gate of Feiyu Pavilion, Xiao Yunxi turned around and bowed to Lu Jingting, saying, "Thank you, my lord, for sending Changle back. Bye!"

"...Grandma asked me to take you back to your room..."

Xiao Yunxi asked in surprise: "Are you joking, Prince?"

Lu Jingting coughed dryly and looked away unnaturally, "You have worked hard these past two years. You will have to teach Ze, Yuan, and Zhan next. I..."

Xiao Yunxi chuckled, "So, to thank me for my hard work, you want to pay me with your body?"

Lu Jingting was stunned. He suspected that he had heard it wrongly.

Xiao Yunxi said coldly: "Prince, do you remember what you said on the night of your wedding two years ago?"

Lu Jingting nodded awkwardly.

Xiao Yunxi continued, "Lu Jingting, with my background, I am qualified to be the consort of not only the prince, but also the crown prince!"

"To be honest, although you are the prince of Zhennan, you have no real power. I'm afraid even the ninth-rank officials in the capital don't take you seriously."

"In terms of money, my dowry can buy several Zhennan Palaces."

"In terms of appearance, you are quite handsome, and you can barely rank in the top 100 in the capital."

"A simple girl like Lin Wan'er, who comes from the countryside, must love the prince so much that she would even sacrifice her dignity."

"But her qualifications are low, so she can only cling to you!"

"A royal lady like Yun Xi won't take you seriously!"

"I am still willing to stay in the Zhennan Palace and be the Crown Prince's Consort. You know the reason, and I know it too."

"You don't have the ability to destroy me as the Crown Prince's Consort, and you don't have the ability to marry the woman you love."

"But I have the ability to destroy you as a prince, and I am even more capable of killing your sweetheart."

"It has always been the custom for princesses and princesses to keep male lovers. I guess I can't be an exception."

"There is no green grassland above your head now. It's not that I can't, but I'm not interested."

"On the wedding night you said that I was not your wife and that you would not let me call you husband."

"I'm telling you clearly today, you don't want to be my husband, and I don't want to be your wife!"

"In life, I won't be yours! In death, I won't be buried in your grave!"

After saying that, Xiao Yunxi turned around and walked inside without waiting for Lu Jingting to react.

He also ordered Xia He, who had rushed over, to close the door.

Lu Jingting stood at the door for a long time without moving.

He stared fiercely at the closed door, his face as cold as ice.

Absurd! Princess or princess, marry him, Lu Jingting, you will be his in life and his in death!

Sooner or later, you, Xiao Yunxi, will have to kneel before me and beg for my favor! Lu Jingting swung his sleeves fiercely and turned away.
