The real big guys are those with connections in the eyes of the system!

Su Yutang didn't expect that he just coughed for a while, and the dirty water thrown at Jiang Yunwan was covered up by the Seventh Prince himself.

Logically speaking, as long as she confirmed the Seventh Prince's guess, she would have achieved her goal.

But she didn't know that this incident not only damaged the Seventh Prince's reputation, but also his qualifications to compete for the throne. She was just worried that the fire was not burning strong enough, so she picked up the things that men cared about most.

"She doesn't want to fulfill the engagement at all, but wants to break it off." Although Su Yutang no longer coughed like before, her throat hurt as if it was burning when she spoke now.

"What did you say?"

"Some time ago, she somehow hooked up with the Regent. Now she wants to be the Regent Princess, but she is worried that the Prince will insist on fulfilling the engagement. So, with the cooperation of the Regent, she used this dirty method to harm the Prince."

She spoke in a hoarse voice and lowered her eyes, hiding her malice.

"She and my uncle? My uncle has never been interested in beautiful women, how could he have any entanglement with her?"

The Seventh Prince didn't believe it.

"But Jiang Yunwan is the most beautiful woman in Kyoto." Su Yutang suppressed his jealousy and spoke word by word.

The expression on the Seventh Prince's face changed several times, but he finally believed it.

"This fickle bitch!"

"Does she think she can rest easy just by being with the Emperor's uncle?"

"Oh, don't forget that our engagement has not been cancelled. She doesn't want to marry me, but I insist on marrying her and torturing her!"

Looking at the Seventh Prince's eyes full of hatred, Su Yutang was certain that even if Jiang Yunwan could marry the prince, she would definitely not have a good life afterwards.

She curled her lips and smiled, but fearing that the night would be too long and full of dreams, she urged the Seventh Prince to go to the Emperor to ask for a marriage.

As long as the imperial edict is issued, even if the Regent remembers Jiang Yunwan's life-saving grace last night, he cannot change her marriage in the slightest.

The Seventh Prince was also very efficient and headed for the palace immediately.

They are all afraid that something might happen if they are late, but they don't want to end up making things worse.

"Greetings, Father. I would like to ask you to grant me a marriage... Uncle, why are you here?"

As soon as the Seventh Prince Liu Yanrui entered, he was eager to express his purpose, but when he looked up and found that the Regent was also drinking tea inside, he was dumbfounded.

"Who do you want me to help you marry?" asked the emperor.

"It's just that... and..."

Thinking of Su Yutang's previous revelation that Jiang Yunwan and the emperor's uncle had an entanglement for a long time, Liu Yanrui's heart tightened slightly. The name that had circled in his mind countless times was now on the tip of his tongue, but he did not have the courage to say it.

But once the arrow is shot, there is no turning back. Since he mentioned this matter, the emperor would not allow him to keep it half-hearted. "Speak!"

It’s a very simple word, but it carries the majesty of an emperor.

Liu Yanrui was so frightened that he uttered, "It's Jiang Yunwan."

This name is somewhat familiar.

Jiang's surname...

The emperor narrowed his eyes and thought for a moment, "You want to marry the daughter of the prime minister?"

"I remember that you are engaged to a certain lady in the Prime Minister's Mansion, but you should know that the ridiculous thing happened a while ago. Given Prime Minister Jiang's personality, it is absolutely impossible for him to marry his daughter to you again."

He lowered his voice, his tone seeming to condemn his son for his lack of self-awareness.

Although the matter was suppressed, there were so many eyes present who saw it.

It is normal for men to have some romantic affairs, but this should never happen between two brothers.

Although those court officials never mentioned it openly, they actually knew everything that happened that day.

Anyone who has any respect would probably be unwilling to marry his daughter to his two sons.

Seeking a marriage arranged by oneself is indeed a way.

If it was an ordinary minor official, the imperial edict would have been issued and that would have been it, but for a close minister like Prime Minister Jiang, some face had to be given.

"That won't work." The emperor's voice was slightly deep.

Liu Yanrui sensed the displeasure in his tone and quickly explained, "Jiang Yunwan is not the daughter of the Prime Minister's family. She was taken away by mistake. Her biological parents are just merchants who run a restaurant. Although her status is not prominent, she is barely qualified to be a concubine for me."

The emperor's expression softened slightly.

I hope she’s not Prime Minister Jiang’s biological daughter.

The status of this merchant's daughter is a bit low, but it is not impossible for her to be a concubine to the current seventh brother.

But how could there be an imperial decree to take a concubine?

It's no wonder that Lao Qi fell into other people's trap since he doesn't think before doing anything.

The emperor sighed secretly, but did not show it on his face. He only said, "Since we have an engagement, there is no need for an imperial decree."

This also officially confirmed that it was Jiang Yunwan who was taken away by mistake and was engaged to the Seventh Prince, not Su Yutang, the real daughter.

Although Liu Yanrui had long known that he and Su Yutang, who was born with the fate of a phoenix, had no chance to be together, he still couldn't control the loss and pain in his heart when he heard these words.

Well, it's enough to get the approval of my father. If I can't get the imperial edict to grant marriage, then forget it.

He had listened to Su Yutang's words before, and was worried that without the imperial edict, the emperor's uncle would interfere. Now the emperor's uncle heard everything clearly, but still remained silent. It seemed that even if he had some personal relationship with Jiang Yunwan, he was just playing with her.

But Jiang Yunwan thought that he could become a phoenix and ruin his life for it. How hateful!

The Seventh Prince started to get angry again.

At this time, the regent who had been invisible for a long time finally spoke up, "Royal brother, what you said is wrong. For such a big event as marrying a concubine, an imperial edict is needed to make it more respectable."

Liu Yanrui frowned slightly and corrected: "Uncle Huang misunderstood. It's taking a concubine, not marrying a concubine."

For some reason he suddenly had a bad feeling.

"There is no misunderstanding." The regent's eyes were firm and his tone was solemn, "It is this prince who wants to marry a concubine."

"Achen? Who are you going to marry?" The emperor looked delighted.

But if you look closely, you can see that there is actually no smile in his eyes, but rather more of vigilance and inquiry.

Of course Liu Yuechen knew that he was afraid that he would mention the name of the daughter of an important official in the court.

He chuckled and read out a name that they were very familiar with and had even mentioned not long ago, "It's Jiang Yunwan."

"Who?" The emperor suspected that he had heard it wrong.

But the reaction of the Seventh Prince Liu Yanrui at this moment seemed to be a disguised confirmation of the name he just heard, "Is the emperor's uncle joking? Jiang Yunwan is my fiancée, the concubine I will soon bring into the palace!"

His tone was angry, and he obviously felt that Su Yutang's words had been verified.

These two people really have an affair!

"As an elder, does the emperor's uncle want to snatch a woman from his nephew?" He gritted his teeth and said this, implying that Liu Yuechen should not be blinded by lust and do such a dishonorable thing.

A normal person would indeed be threatened because of concerns about his reputation.

But Liu Yuechen has been playing abnormal roles over the years, and now he laughs like a madman, "Someone else's fiancée... Tsk tsk, isn't that more interesting?"

The Seventh Prince was shocked all over and didn't know what to say for a moment.

Even the emperor seemed a little overwhelmed, "Achen you..."

"Royal brother, there is no need to persuade me. Jiang Yunwan is beautiful and I like her very much. I don't care about her identity. I want to marry her." He deliberately portrayed himself as superficial and said it very willfully.

"Uncle, don't go too far!" The Seventh Prince looked at Liu Yuechen, then looked at the emperor nervously, "Father, you can't agree to Uncle, Jiang Yunwan is going to marry me as a concubine!"

Before the emperor could express his opinion, Liu Yuechen came up to him and pleaded with sincere eyes.

"Hasn't my royal brother always loved me the most and said that he would find a way to satisfy me no matter what I want? Now I have such a small request, is my royal brother going to refuse me?"

He knew that when the emperor heard that he wanted to marry a girl without a maternal family background, he would be very happy and would be eager to agree immediately.

I also know that he has been pretending to be a good brother for so many years, so I have to pretend to persuade him to think carefully.

Liu Yuechen was actually tired of this kind of drama, but he had no choice but to cooperate with the performance, and even had to take the initiative to give him a way out - the younger brother had begged like this, how could the older brother have the heart to refuse?

As expected, the emperor did not persuade him much, but just pretended to compromise and said: "Since Ah Chen has begged me so much, there is no reason for me to refuse."

Liu Yuechen smiled happily, "Thank you, brother!"

Then he raised his eyebrows provocatively at another person present.

The Seventh Prince was furious at that time.

These two shameless bastards who are secretly in collusion with each other!
