"I can't think of anyone else who would do this except her," Liu Yunyan analyzed clearly.

"This man was able to rise from an unknown minor official to the position of prime minister today, which shows that he is extremely cunning. Yan'er still has to be careful in dealing with him. Such a man is the most adept at scheming, and you will fall into his trap if you are not careful." How could Liu Yunfeng not be worried, especially since such a man has a close connection with Yan'er.

"So many things have happened, and almost every one of them is related to him. It seems that the prime minister has put a lot of effort into Yun Ruochu," Liu Yunyan said thoughtfully.

"Come to think of it, what he has done is also paving the way for himself," Liu Yunfeng did not think that the Prime Minister was so selfless. In the face of supreme power, what did the relationship between father and son mean?

"It's always better to be careful," Liu Yunfeng's eyes were sharp. Li Rongyuan was bound to die. He was closely related to his father's assassination. If he didn't die, it would be difficult to comfort his father's spirit in heaven.

……

Time flies, ten days passed quickly and it was the day of the enthronement ceremony.

Liu Yunyan was dug out of bed by Liu Yunfeng before dawn. She had finished dressing up before she even opened her eyes and was wearing clothes that represented a princess.

At dawn, the palace was already bustling with activity. The golden sunlight sprinkled on the red walls and golden tiles, reflecting a brilliant scene. The enthronement ceremony was imminent, and the entire palace was immersed in a solemn and sacred atmosphere.

The entire princess's conferment ceremony was very tedious and complicated. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, participants in the ceremony were all royal princes and princesses, direct blood relatives, and imperial concubines. In addition, there were Liu Yunfeng, Li Xueyan and other relatives who had a good relationship with the emperor. Many people gathered in the hall.

Liu Yunyan was wearing an elegant gown with a skirt that dragged on the ground, like a blooming peony. Her hair was adorned with all kinds of precious jewels, which sparkled brightly in the light, setting off her peerless beauty. She had a faint smile on her face and her eyes were sparkling with light.

The grand hall was magnificent and splendid. Yun Ting sat on the dragon throne, the queen sat beside him, and the princes, princesses, concubines and their families sat on both sides. At this moment, their eyes were focused on Liu Yunyan, who was about to be canonized.

The chief eunuch walked forward steadily, holding the imperial edict in his hand, and read out aloud the princess' title and fiefdom. His voice was loud and solemn, and every word fell on Liu Yunyan's heart.

Liu Yunyan slowly stepped forward, knelt before the emperor and empress, took the decree with both hands, and kowtowed to thank the emperor for his grace.

After the ceremony, there was a banquet. Liu Yunyan sat below the emperor and empress, and the palace maids poured wine and served food.

Liu Yunyan looked around. Apart from some unfamiliar concubines and princes and princesses, Crown Prince Yun Ruochu and Sixth Princess Yun Ruoyao were also among them. This was something Liu Yunyan had not expected. Has the Crown Prince been released from confinement?

At this time, Yun Ruochu no longer had the vigor and vitality he had at the beginning. He looked particularly decadent, with fatigue on his face and his eyes had lost their former luster. He just drank and ate silently, which was in sharp contrast to the lively atmosphere around him.

Didn't they say that the Li family had been plotting behind the prince's back? How did it become like this?

Liu Yunyan raised her eyebrows. The Sixth Princess Yun Ruoyao actually walked towards Liu Yunfeng.

Yun Ruoyao walked to Liu Yunfeng gracefully, her face as delicate as a flower, her eyes as beautiful as a thousand words, but she just raised her jade hand slightly, gently raised the wine glass, and said in a voice as clear and pleasant as a yellow oriole out of the valley: "General Liu, congratulations! Liu Yunyan has now been canonized as a princess, this is really a great joy!"

Liu Yunfeng stood up and responded, "Thank you, Sixth Princess, but I am no longer a general. I am here only as a relative of Princess Pingyang. I cannot bear the title of princess."

"No, General Liu, no matter what time, you will always be the general in my heart," Yun Ruoyao said bluntly.

Liu Yunfeng drank the wine in one gulp, "Thank you, Sixth Princess."

Yun Ruoyao originally wanted to say a few more words to Liu Yunfeng, but Liu Yunfeng didn't even look at her and just looked away gently. Following Liu Yunfeng's line of sight, she saw Liu Yunyan was also looking at Liu Yunfeng.

The two of them stared at each other from afar, no longer able to take in anyone else's gaze. Yun Ruoyao almost bit her gums to pieces, and the wine glass in her hand was tightly squeezed. It was Liu Yunyan again, why did all the good things happen to her? But she was the daughter of a dead princess, and her father had no idea what was wrong with him and actually paid so much attention to her.

Yun Ruoyao glared at Liu Yunyan, not wanting to please her own son and daughter, but instead doting on a stranger's child. She sat back in annoyance.

Turning around, he saw Yun Ruochu dejected beside him and could no longer suppress his anger. "What's wrong with you? Didn't I tell you to behave well today? Why do you look like you've lost your soul from the beginning? Did you regret seeing that Liu Yunyan was more favored by the emperor than you?"

Yun Ruoyao sneered and glanced at Liu Yunyan jealously, "What a pity, I don't have time to care about you now. The emperor is in great favor. Who would care about you, a prince who has lost his power?"

Yun Ruochu seemed not to hear Yun Ruoyao's mocking words. His eyes were only fixed on Liu Yunyan, who was surrounded by people and smiling like a flower. He had never known that Liu Yunyan was so beautiful. He couldn't help but feel confused. Why had she never explained the rumors before?

After three rounds of drinks, Liu Yunyan felt a little stuffy, so she found an excuse to leave and go outside the hall to get some fresh air.

She was walking along the corridor, thinking about her next plan, when a familiar voice came into her ears.

"Liu Yunyan," Liu Yunyan turned around and saw Yun Ruchu, who looked haggard, standing behind her.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince," Liu Yunyan nodded slightly. Could it be that this person was looking for her for the same purpose as the Li family?

"You..." Yun Ruochu looked at Liu Yunyan with a complicated expression, "Don't you have anything you want to say to me?"

Liu Yunyan was stunned for a moment, "What do you mean? Why should I say anything to you?"

Yun Ruochu looked directly at Liu Yunyan and said sadly, "You are so beautiful, why do you have to pretend to be an ugly girl? Don't you have any feelings for me?"

Liu Yunyan had a question mark on her face, "? Are you sick? When did I ever say that I have feelings for you?"

"So everything you said to me before was false?" Yun Ruochu really couldn't accept such a contrast. How could a person just say he doesn't love someone anymore?

Liu Yunyan didn't want to argue about this topic with him anymore. "I tell you clearly, I have never had any feelings for you." The intruder did not represent herself, and no one would believe it if she told others about it.

Yun Ruochu looked hurt, "Yan'er, I don't believe that I can change something for you that you don't like about me."

Liu Yunyan almost vomited when he called her "Yan'er". As expected, she would only be happy when the person she liked called her like that.

"I have someone I like, someone I've liked since I was very young. It has nothing to do with you."

Liu Yunyan felt that Yun Ruochu was mentally ill. She was interested in Liu Yunqing at first, and later hooked up with Li Xueyan for power. Now that she was favored, she wanted to get back with her?

Watching Liu Yunyan leave, Yun Ruochu felt very panicked. She must hold Liu Yunyan's heart, otherwise... otherwise she would be really finished.
