"How could I be deceiving you?"

Xi Meng was stunned by Li Fanghua's words.

Shen Yinlai, who was standing next to him, clenched her fists when she heard that Xi Meng was going to be Shen Jing'an's concubine. She felt inexplicably uncomfortable and blocked in her heart.

"When I stayed, I didn't say I wanted to be Emperor An's concubine."

Li Fanghua, "You didn't say it, but His Highness Xile did, and you didn't say anything, but agreed to stay. Doesn't that mean you agreed to be Emperor An's concubine?"

"I……"

Ximeng was speechless again.

Then, she suddenly glanced at Shen Yin beside her and pouted, "Since it's an arranged marriage, you can also marry someone else in the royal family. It's not just being a concubine that counts as an arranged marriage."

Hearing this, Li Fanghua narrowed her eyes, looking back and forth between Xi Meng and Shen Yinlai, and then she curled her lips and smiled, "Do you mean to say that you want to marry the Fourth Prince?"

Marry the Fourth Prince...

Shen Yinlai's pupils shrank slightly, and he looked up at Xi Meng who was supporting him. When Xi Meng saw him looking at her, her rosy face became even redder, and she quickly lowered her head, her face, ears, and neck all turned red with shame.

"It seems that what the general said is correct. Princess Ximeng really wants to marry the Fourth Prince and become his consort."

Li Fanghua sneered.

She is indeed a useless and unsophisticated little girl.

There is only love in his eyes.

"Fourth Prince, are you willing to marry Princess Ximeng?"

Li Fanghua stared at Shen Yin and asked.

Of course she didn't want Shen Yin to marry Xi Meng, because if so, Da Sheng and Western Zhou would still be involved, and it would not be so easy to annex Western Zhou.

The key point is, Shen Yin came here because she wanted to try out this guy, so how could she let that idiot Xi Meng take him first?

Shen Yinlai didn't expect Li Fanghua to ask so directly, and for a moment he didn't know how to answer.

The current issue concerns Dasheng, not just his problem, so he cannot answer directly.

If it were in the past, he would have refused without hesitation, but now, he could not be willful.

Moreover, there seemed to be something a little strange in his heart towards Ximeng.

"General Fanghua, this is the Fourth Prince's business, so you don't need to worry about it, right?"

Lin You had been listening for a while, and when he saw Shen Yin was making things difficult, he stepped forward to smooth things over.

It’s Concubine You again, this woman who is so infuriating that she can’t bear it anymore.

Li Fanghua pinched his fingers, forced a smile, and looked at Lin You, "That's right, I was worrying too much."

She doesn't bother with petty women and lower herself.

"Princess Ximeng, this is the best I can do for you, but you still have to ask some questions clearly, lest you be betrayed in the future and have nowhere to cry, with no one to help you."

After saying these provocative words, Li Fanghua left.

Lin You looked at her arrogant look and couldn't help but grit his teeth.

"Miss."

Xi Meng took Lin You's arm, tears welling up in her eyes.

Obviously, she felt uncomfortable and scared because of Li Fanghua's tickling.

Lin You patted her hands, then looked at Shen Yinlai, "Fourth Prince, please come with me to Yunqian Palace to meet the Emperor."

Shen Yinlai looked at her bright face, a complex emotion flashed in his eyes, and then he followed obediently.

--

"Your Majesty, the Queen is here with the Fourth Prince and Princess Ximeng."

Eunuch Hong informed Shen Jing'an of the news in advance.

He had also heard everything that had just happened between Li Fanghua and Lin You at the palace gate.

So at this moment, he was still thinking about the fact that Li Fanghua had three lives, and did not hear what Eunuch Hong said.

Three lives, how many does she have left now?

"emperor."

Eunuch Hong had no choice but to call again.

Only then did Shen Jing'an come back to his senses.

"What's wrong?" he asked with a frown.

As soon as he finished speaking, Lin You came with Shen Yin and Princess Ximeng and walked into the courtyard.

He stood up and walked to the lobby. Lin You came up to him, took his hand, and said in a tender voice, "Your Majesty, I am hungry. Is lunch ready?"

"Well, it's ready, wash your hands and eat."

Shen Jing'an took her to the eunuch holding water and washed Lin You's hands personally. Xi Meng looked at the loving appearance of the two and couldn't help but look at Shen Yinlai beside her.

Her clear eyes were filled with admiration.

In the past few days, Shen Yinlai has been living in her Lotus Palace. She takes care of him day and night. Whenever she thinks of how he suffered so many injuries in order to save her, she feels guilty.

But at the same time, I also saw my own heart clearly, and felt not only guilt but also admiration.

Maybe it existed before, but I didn’t see it clearly.

Now that the truth has been exposed, she simply stopped hiding it.

If you want to watch it, watch it openly.

Noticing the little girl's gaze, Shen Yinlai's body stiffened involuntarily. He stood with his back straight, not daring to move, but his cold cheeks were burning.

He couldn't help swallowing his saliva, and looked at his Xi Meng who suddenly reached out and touched his rolling Adam's apple, "What an interesting thing."

Shen Yinlai immediately stepped back as if he had been electrocuted, and said coldly: "What are you doing? Men and women should not touch each other, don't you know?"

How could a woman like her touch this man casually?

"I……"

Xi Meng was frightened by his cold voice and cold face, and was at a loss as to what to do.

"Princess Ximeng, come and have dinner. Don't pay attention to him. He is just an iceberg and treats everyone like this."

Lin You had just washed his hands when he saw Xi Meng being bullied. He glared at Shen Yinlai fiercely, then took Xi Meng to the dining table.

Shen Jing'an watched silently, and when he sat down, he saw Shen Yinlai still standing, and then he said calmly, "Fourth brother, are you not going to come for dinner?"

"use."

Shen Yin came to the table in a hurry.

He didn't want to stand there stupidly and watch the three of them eat like he did last time.

These meals are all special dishes prepared by the emperor's brother for Concubine You. Each one is extremely tempting and he can't miss it.

Xi Meng picked up a dish for him and said weakly, "I'm sorry for what happened just now."

Shen Yinlai was slightly startled, then he also picked up a piece of meat for her, "I was reckless."

Hearing this, a smile suddenly flashed across Ximeng's eyes, and he stared at Shen Yin with sparkling eyes.

So, Shen Yinlai doesn't blame her anymore?

[Tsk tsk, this little girl has really fallen in love with Shen Yinlai! ]

Lin You ate while looking at the two boys and girls.

[System, tell me, are these two a good match?]

[They are a good match, but their relationship seems to be quite bumpy. ]

Shen Yinlai and Xi Meng were both stunned when they heard what the system said.

Lin You was attracted by the topic and didn't pay attention to them. [Oh? What's the twist?]

System [Not sure, but there are some twists and turns after all. 】

This one sentence upset Ximeng and Shen Yinlai.

No, she won't have any setbacks. She is the most beloved princess of the Emperor Father and the Emperor Mother, and her brother has returned to the Western Zhou Dynasty. He will definitely become the crown prince of the Western Zhou Dynasty. When the time comes, she can get whatever she wants.

It’s just a marriage, what twists and turns can there be!
