Taking the blame for the fake daughter: After being released from prison, she went on a killing spre

[What the dog emperor asked is really ridiculous. He has already issued an imperial decree, but now he is pretending to be a benevolent monarch. It is really hypocritical. If I give you a wife who is a disaster star with a completely ruined appearance, would you be willing? No normal person would agree to it, okay?] Su Yunling cursed Emperor Jing Zhao in her heart.

"I am willing to do so. Thank you for your grace, Your Majesty." Xiao Ji Chen raised his knees and knelt down to express his gratitude.

This time Su Yunling couldn't do anything about it, so she stared at Xiao Jichen and made faces.

[No, you really don't need to think about it again? We agreed to form an alliance, not get married.]

Emperor Jing Zhao smiled with a fake smile: "Haha~ That's great, this happy event is settled now."

Su Yunling's silent mask shattered, [No, no one asked me? Is it because I am not worthy? ]

As soon as she finished muttering, she saw Xiao Ji Chen suddenly turn around and face her, bowing to her in a proper manner.

"I heard that good relationships are destined by heaven. I met a beautiful woman. I will follow the wishes of the locust and marry you to be in charge of the household. My heart is with you, and I hope to grow old with you."

Su Yunling was at a loss for words by his sudden "confession".

"Could it be that Princess Hemin would rather die than accept this marriage?" Emperor Jing Zhao's face darkened.

Su Yunling laughed angrily, [Okay, that's how you want to play it, right? You're courting death, you dog emperor!]

"Your Majesty, I am willing to marry Prince Junyang. Thank you for your grace."

"That's good. I have facilitated another good marriage. Hahaha..." Emperor Jing Zhao thought his evil plan had succeeded and laughed heartily.

He immediately ordered Xiao Jichen to send a message to Prince Su and Princess Su, asking them to choose a day to return to Beijing for the wedding banquet.

On the way back, Xiao Jichen invited Su Yunling to his Youran Ju for a chat.

After entering Youran Ju, Su Yunling followed him to the tea room where one could enjoy the lake view.

After dismissing the attendants, Su Yunling went straight to the point, "Are you really sure you want to marry me? Or is this just a delaying tactic to stall Emperor Jing Zhao?"

Xiao Jichen threw off his cloak and sat down on the futon in front of the tea table. "There is no contradiction between the two. Emperor Jing Zhao is determined to put you into Prince Su's mansion. If we choose to resist, it will only anger him."

Now is not the time to confront Emperor Jing Zhao head-on, so we need to be patient for the time being.

Although Su Yunling has lived for nearly two thousand years in total, she has spent almost all of that time studying human food. As for human emotions, she really doesn't quite understand them.

"So you're going to marry someone you don't like for the sake of a great cause?"

Xiao Jichen answered irrelevantly, "Don't worry, if you don't want to be my prince's consort, we can just be nominal husband and wife after we get married. When the time comes, I can set you free."

Su Yunling rested her elbows on the tea table, supported her chin with both hands, frowned and stared at the man in front of her.

[To be honest, although this man is not the type I originally liked, he is not as annoying as I imagined. On the contrary, he is quite nice, so it is not a bad idea to marry him.]

Xiao Ji Chen looked up at him, their eyes met, and his gaze fell into her peach blossom eyes that were as bright as stars.

"So, Princess Hemin, are you willing to marry me?"

"Marriage now will make it easier for us to form an alliance, and I have no reason to refuse. Prince Junyang, don't forget to go to the county lady's mansion to propose."

The smile on Xiao Jichen's lips was like a spring breeze, gentle and warm.

"Okay, thank you for not abandoning me. From now on, as long as my Su Wang Mansion is prosperous, you will be prosperous as well."

"Your Highness, you don't have to promise me these things. I have my own hands and feet. If I really can't live well, I will run away by myself."

Xiao Jichen: "..."

After the two of them agreed to the marriage, Xiao Jichen saw Su Yunling out the door.

As soon as they reached the door, they saw Xu Zhang getting off a carriage not far away.

Xu Zhang raised her head and saw the two of them. When she saw Xiao Jichen, her face darkened.

"Grandma, why did you come here in person?" Su Yunling walked quickly to greet her.

"Madam Xu." Out of courtesy, Xiao Ji Chen also took the initiative to greet her.

"You are too polite, Prince Su." Madam Xu Zhang forced a smile, "I have something to talk to Lingling, so I will leave for now."

Xiao Jichen bowed and said, "Madam Xu, please do as you please."

"Grandma, let me help you in..." Su Yunling and another maid helped Xu Zhang into the county lady's mansion.

As soon as the group of people closed the door, Fei Peng behind Xiao Ji Chen could no longer bear it.

"Sir, are you really going to marry Princess Hemin?"

"if not?"

"How can Princess Hemin be worthy of you? Not to mention her ugliness, the key is her notoriety. Now she is rumored to be a disaster. If you marry such a woman as the Crown Prince's consort, I'm afraid the prince and the princess will be mad to death!"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Ji Chen glanced at Fei Peng coldly and said, "You are disrespectful to the Crown Prince's wife. Go down and receive thirty strokes of the cane..."

In the county lady's mansion, Xu Zhang had no intention of appreciating the Su-style garden specially built by Su Yunling. After taking her seat in the main seat, she went straight to the point.

"The Emperor suddenly granted you and Prince Su a marriage, which was beyond everyone's expectations. He did not announce it to the public and directly issued the decree. Even if your grandfather wanted to stop it, he couldn't."

"Emperor Jing Zhao suddenly issued an edict to grant the marriage. Wasn't it because he didn't want any complications or people to stop him? Grandmother, please tell grandfather not to worry about me. Prince Su is a very good person. I am willing to marry him."

When Xu Zhang heard Su Yunling's words, she was immediately distressed. "The Prince of Su is a playboy and already has four concubines in his house. Moreover, Emperor Jing Zhao has been dissatisfied with Prince Su for a long time. Sooner or later, Prince Su's house will be swallowed up by the imperial power. If you marry him, it will be like walking into a fire pit!"

Su Yunling smiled at Xu Zhang with relief, "Grandma, please believe me! There are some things I cannot tell you in detail for now, but I can tell you that what you know now is all an illusion. I know what to do."

Perhaps it was because Su Yunling's eyes were too calm and determined that Xu Zhang slowly calmed down, "The emperor knew that you were rumored to be a disaster, but he still forced you into the Prince Su's Mansion. I'm afraid you will have a hard time if you marry in!"

"Grandma, do you think I'm someone who would suffer? I definitely won't be the one who has a hard time..."

After hearing her say this, Xu Zhang finally felt a little relieved.

The imperial decree has been issued and it cannot be reversed. Now that things have come to this, it is impossible to disobey the order. The only way is to escape the marriage.

But obviously Su Yunling's attitude made Xu Zhang change her mind, and she then remembered another thing.

"Su Zhaohong actually kicked you out of the Su Mansion? Is he still worthy of being a human being?"

"Not only was he kicked out, he also broke off the engagement with me." Su Yunling shrugged indifferently.

"What? How can this be possible? What do your three brothers think of it?"

"They are just like Su Zhaohong, they want to kick me out!"

Xu Zhang was furious. "These three stupid fools are all like that cold-blooded beast Su Zhaohong. You want to break off the relationship, right? That's great. From now on, they are no longer the grandchildren of my Xu family."

Su Yunling hurriedly asked Linglan to serve tea, "Grandma, drink some tea to calm down. They will soon pay the price for their stupidity. Just don't be soft-hearted when the time comes..."

Su Yunling's peaceful days of raising flowers and playing with birds in the county lady's mansion had only lasted a few days when they were broken by an urgent knock on the door.

The person who came was none other than the dog dad Su Zhaohong.

"Why is your prescription no longer effective? The epidemic has broken out outside the city again..."
