Everyone was shocked and stared at the strange-shaped purse, full of doubts.

"Mu Qing, take a look at it." The prince handed it to Wan Mu Qing who was standing beside him.

Wan Muqing took the purse and said stiffly, "Although this purse is a little rough, the pattern on it is clumsy yet lovely. Then I will give you two hundred taels."

The prince nodded slightly to show his satisfaction.

At this time, Hai Yanqing stood up. "I'll pay five hundred taels."

An Huanyan looked up suddenly, her eyes a little flustered.

Jiang Xingkuo was also stunned. What was going on? Didn't the two of them not get along? Oh, at this time, Hai Yanqing didn't know that this thing was embroidered by An Huanyan, the victim.

The prince just frowned slightly and said nothing.

Wan Muqing stood up and said disdainfully: "I'll pay eight hundred taels of silver."

Hai Yanqing smiled slightly, "I'll offer 1000 taels."

Wan Muqing gritted his teeth and said unwillingly, "Mr. Hai, are you deliberately trying to pick a fight with me, or do you really have a special liking for this purse?"

Hai Yanqing picked up the purse and looked through it carefully.

"The pattern embroidered on this purse is a cow's head and a horse's face. Ordinary girls probably embroider flowers, birds, and rocks, but this is the first time I've seen such a unique pattern. It shows that this girl is original and interesting."

Everyone was shocked. How could a girl embroider an ox-head and horse-faced figure...

Jiang Xingkuo said thoughtfully: "I thought they were two ugly pig heads..."

"You are the pig-head." An Huanyan poked her with her elbow, but a warm feeling rose in her heart.

"Also, today is such an important occasion, and this girl did not ask other people who can do needlework to replace her. This shows that she is sincere and just. I am willing to make friends with this girl."

After saying this, Hai Yanqing glanced at Wan Muqing provocatively and sat down again.

Wan Muqing had no way to refute, so he could only give in and drink several glasses of wine.

The prince waved his hand and the purse was handed to him.

Hai Yanqing stuffed the purse into his arms with satisfaction, and the female relatives started to make a noise.

After all, this is a very private matter.

"She must be watching too. It feels good to make two people unhappy at the same time." Hai Yanqing thought and happily drank the wine in the glass in one gulp.

"Good, good, good. Everything goes perfectly and smoothly. My beloved concubine, it is your brilliant ideas that make me happy." The emperor also patted Yan Zhaoyi's hand with satisfaction.

The queen looked calm and said nothing.

"Your Majesty, why don't we let the girl who made this purse come out and claim it, so that we can see which girl is so funny."

Yan Zhaoyi's words made An Huanyan's scalp tingle.

"What should I do with Xingxing? I might as well just leave..."

"It's okay, just turn yourself in. Leniency to those who confess, severity to those who resist." Jiang Xingkuo had a hopeless expression on his face.

"What the hell…"

"What are you afraid of? If the sky falls, your mother and brother will help you hold it up."

"Whose girl is this? Come out and let everyone see her." Yan Zhaoyi's urging voice sounded like a death warrant.

"...It's... me..." An Huanyan stood up with her head held high.

Hai Yanqing's face changed as if he had a sudden heart attack, and he looked at An Huanyan in disbelief as she walked out.

"So it's our princess! The princess's wit and sense of humor are really beyond the understanding of us ordinary people." Yan Zhaoyi's sour look made An Huanyan very uncomfortable.

"I know that ordinary people can't understand it, but my father and mother are extraordinary people. They can actually understand their daughter's feelings." An Huanyan rarely said this.

Yan Zhaoyi's face froze for a long time before she forced a smile and said, "Princess is so smart. I have a suggestion that can relieve your majesty's worries."

"Oh? Tell me about it." The emperor was very interested.

"Didn't the Khitan envoy come to ask for a marriage alliance? Among our royal family, the only one who is worthy of the Khitan prince is Princess Huanyan, and she is of the right age..."

"No! The harem is not allowed to interfere in government affairs. How can you be so disrespectful as to make decisions?!" The queen, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly retorted in a harsh voice.

"This..." The emperor was also in a dilemma.

"Your Majesty, how could I have any intention of interfering in politics? They will only make things difficult for Your Majesty, and I just want to share your worries." Yan Zhaoyi said with trembling lips, feeling so aggrieved that she wanted to cry.

"My beloved, don't I know you? I really understand your painstaking efforts. But this matter is of great importance and needs further discussion." The emperor hugged her in his arms and coaxed her with heartache.

"Your Majesty is wise. Besides, I heard that the prince of Qishan State is brave and good at fighting. He is a rare good man. Even if the princess marries him, he will definitely not treat her badly."

Everyone has experienced the methods of Concubine Yanyan.

An Huanyan was so angry that she wanted to yell, but Jiang Xingkuo stopped her by covering her mouth.

"So this is the reason." Jiang Xingkuo said worriedly.

"What's the reason? Why would they send me to marry a foreign prince?" An Huanyan was so angry that she couldn't speak.

"No, I'm talking about the reason why your mother and the crown prince want you to get married early."

An Huanyan suddenly realized, but even if she understood, what could she do? She could only clench her fists tightly, glanced at Hai Yanqing again, and lowered her head in disappointment.

In the crowd, Hai Yanqing had a blank expression on his face, and no one knew what he was thinking.

The queen winked at the prince.

The crown prince immediately stood up and said, "Father, Huanyan is the only princess of our Jin Kingdom. If she can't be with you in the future, won't father and mother be heartbroken?"

"Only by sacrificing the small self can one achieve the greater self. The prince must have the vision to see the princess go to marry a foreign prince, right?" Zhaoyi Yan sneered lightly.

The queen slammed the table and everyone was startled.

"Shut up! You are just a little Zhaoyi, and you are pointing fingers at state affairs. If it gets out, it will only make us laugh. People will say that our Jin Kingdom has no sense of propriety, righteousness, and integrity."

"Your Majesty~" Zhaoyi Yan snuggled into his arms and said coquettishly. "They don't feel sorry for your Majesty, but I do. Your Majesty has been worried about this matter for several days. Look, there is another wrinkle at the corner of your eye. If this matter could be resolved earlier, your Majesty wouldn't have to worry so much. I am doing this for your Majesty, but the Queen is so cruel to me..."

"Oh, why don't you talk less!" The emperor glared at the queen, who felt as uncomfortable as if she had eaten a fly.

Seeing this, the prince chimed in, "Our Jin Kingdom is strong and rich, with so many good men. Are we not as good as a Khitan? Moreover, is it necessary for a weak woman like Huanyan to shoulder all this and change all this?"

The emperor became hesitant and could only decide to discuss it again.

Yan Buwan chuckled triumphantly.
