It is the time when the clouds stop raining

Chu Beili said: "I'll let the secret guards come out to carry you." He couldn't stand being fooled by Lu Shangshuang.

Lu Shangshuang was just testing the waters. It seemed that Chu Beili had no hesitation at all. She pouted and said, "Forget it." After that, she left first. She had good physical strength and had no problem walking by herself.

All the way back to the post station, Chu Beili thought to himself that today had been pretty smooth and he finally returned safely.

After settling Lu Shangshuang down, he wanted to ask the third prince Lu Jianping if he needed anything else.

After searching for a while without success, he asked the guards and found out that the emperor had sent the second prince here today, and Lu Jianping was currently boating on the lake with the second prince Li Chengyuan.

What a wonderful time! Even though he was almost dying of exhaustion, they still had the mood to go boating on the lake.

The Second Prince, who was boating on the lake, raised his glass and said, "Third Prince, please."

The third prince said, "It's still warmer in the capital of Daxia. The rivers over there freeze every winter, so we can't swim in the lake at all."

The second prince Xia Qitian said: "Ice has its own fun. You can skate on it."

The third prince Lu Jianping recalled the interesting things that happened in his childhood: "Yes, ice skating is also very interesting."

Li Chengyuan said: "Cheers to the Second and Third Princes."

Xia Qitian saw Lu Jianping finish his glass and said, "Chengyuan, fill up the Third Prince's glass."

The group drank and enjoyed the scenery, and they had a very pleasant time together.

The second prince said, "Brother Jianping, please."

Lu Jianping said: "Thank you, Brother Qi Tian. I also wish that our Northern Country and Da Xia can live in peace and prosperity."

Xia Qitian said: "I also hope that our plan can be successfully implemented."

Lu Jianping glanced at Li Chengyuan next to him, and then Xia Qitian explained: "Chengyuan is one of us, so it doesn't matter if he knows."

"Chengyuan, you may not know this yet, but Brother Jianping was specially invited by my mother and me to come here. They helped this prince ascend the throne and kill Xia Qiyang. This prince helped him seize power in the Northern Kingdom." Xia Qitian said very proudly. This was their plan, and it would not be unrelated to tell Li Chengyuan.

After saying that, he whispered a few words into Li Chengyuan's ear.

If Li Chengyuan is really Xia Qi Yang's man, then he will tell Xia Qi Yang about this plan.

Fang Tingshen had told him before that Li Chengyuan was a traitor and that the letters from the Minister's Mansion were stolen because Li Chengyuan hired someone to do it.

Originally, Xia Qitian didn't believe Fang Tingshen's words at all, but he was right about the late crown prince.

There was a welcoming banquet in the evening. After a few drinks, Xia Qitian and Li Chengyuan sent Lu Jianping back to the post station.

"Chengyuan, do you think that tonight's event will be successful?"

Li Chengyuan said respectfully: "I will definitely do that."

As the sun sets, the sunset glow in the sky is beautiful. It seems that God knows that the New Year is coming and has deliberately made the sky sunny for a few days.

There was an endless stream of carriages and horses at the gate of the palace, all of them were people rushing to attend the palace banquet.

Qu Xueruo also came with the people from Yong'an Marquis' Mansion. She was very excited along the way. It seemed that marrying Xie Liangping did have some benefits. After all, she was now the nominal marquis' wife.

From now on, I can attend any banquet in the capital city, big or small, as I please. It makes me excited just thinking about it. I no longer have to wait for Song Fendi to give me alms.

You can also use your status as the Marquis's wife to suppress many people and handle many things.

Yun Shu looked at the long line of carriages lined up in front of the palace gate. It seemed that someone was much more enthusiastic than them.

The guards guarding the palace gate are checking carefully. This banquet is of great importance and no hateful person or thing can be allowed in.

So it took a longer time, and Yun Shu actually heard Song Fendi's voice while in the carriage.

It turned out that she was looking for Qu Xueruo to talk to. Unexpectedly, the two of them had a good relationship, but Xie Qingyun was excluded.

According to Qu Xueruo's current status and position is no lower than Song Fendi, the only difference is that Song Fendi has an aunt who is the queen.

Qu Xueruo looked at Song Fendi and said, "Xiao Di, you've lost weight." After what happened these days, it would be strange if Song Fendi didn't lose weight. Not only did she not marry the Second Prince she had always loved, but even none of the good boys in Daxia dared to ask for her hand in marriage. The Queen wanted to make her a princess and marry her to Qixia.

However, Song Fendi refused to agree at first, but Song Wanyi said that she would no longer care about her affairs and asked her to marry Xie Liangping as his second wife.

How could Song Fendi marry Xie Liangping, a man as old as her father? The matter was urgent.

After discussing with Mrs. Song, she felt that it would be better to pretend to agree to the marriage first, so that there would be time to plan everything.

I originally wanted to let Song Luoqiu go to marry on my behalf, but I don’t know what’s wrong with that girl Song Luoqiu lately, and she actually disagreed.

She brought Song Luoqiu with her today, and Song Fendi had a way to make her agree.

But she needs a helper, and Qu Xueruo is a good candidate. I believe that when she sees Song Luoqiu, she will know what she should do.

Song Fendi's little plan was clear to her when Song Wanyi saw her and Song Luoqiu.

How could she let Song Fendi get her wish? It was this stupid woman who made her and the Second Prince so passive. It was impossible for her to use someone else's trick. She had to marry him, even if she didn't have to be tied to the sedan chair.

The welcoming banquet had not officially started yet. Everyone was enjoying the flowers in the imperial garden. Madam Song came to Song Wanyi and said, "Wanyi, please, give Xiaodi another chance. He can't go to the North Country. He will die without a trace."

If there weren't so many people present, Mrs. Song felt that she would definitely kneel down and beg Song Wanyi.

Who will be crowned as a princess is up to her, Song Wanyi.

Song Wanyi looked at the grand scene and said, "I let you choose that day." They have already made their choice, so let them make it. Just because that incident is over, Song Fendi can't choose not to go to the North Country. What does the promise they made at that time mean?

"Sister-in-law, His Majesty was there at the time. How can you ask me to take back my order?"

Isn't Mrs. Song looking for trouble for herself? But she also wants Song Fendi to marry.

Madam Song said, "Wanyi, I know this is difficult. We brought Luoqiu here. You see, she looks 50% like Xiaodi. How about letting her marry in place of Xiaodi?"

After a little dressing up, others would not be able to tell who is Song Fendi and who is Song Luoqiu.

Song Wanyi looked at her sister-in-law and thought she was so stupid. If she wanted to replace the prince with a cat, why did she reveal the cat? She was so hopelessly stupid.

Mrs. Song was also at her wit's end. These days, she had been passing signs to Song Wanyi, wanting to enter the palace to discuss Song Fendi's affairs.

But Song Wanyi ignored her. Mrs. Song had just met Song Wanyi today. Now she begged her so humbly, but Song Wanyi still refused to give in.
