Dressed as a concubine instead of a concubine

"No need, this prince only wants Meng Xiyue." Nan Rongzhi sneered.

"In this prince's heart, even if all ten princesses of your country are added together, they are not as important as Meng Xiyue alone."

Hearing this, the emperor frowned slightly and asked tentatively, "Have the Crown Prince and Meng Xiyue known each other for a long time?"

"Your Majesty, you are joking. This is the first time for me to come to Yuanqing Kingdom, and Meng Xiyue has never left Yuanqing. How could we have known each other for a long time?"

"This prince fell in love with her at first sight, and she is the only one I can have."

The emperor saw that she didn't seem to be lying and let down his guard a little.

It makes sense. How could a prince from an enemy country secretly come to Yuanqing Kingdom and the emperor himself not know about it?

"Then congratulations, Your Highness, on meeting the woman of your dreams," asked the emperor.

"Are you really willing to exchange five cities for her?"

"I am willing. She is worthy. I believe that what she will bring to our Nanrong Country in the future will be far more valuable than these five cities."

Seeing that she was really willing to exchange five cities for a woman of lowly status, the emperor was immediately overjoyed, and he didn't take the second half of Nan Rongzhi's words to heart at all.

I just felt that Nan Rongzhi was bewitched by a woman and was willing to exchange five cities.

He had also seen Meng Xiyue in the Queen's Palace. Apart from her outstanding looks, there was nothing special about her.

But he actually deceived his son and the prince of the enemy country at the same time.

It's really extraordinary.

No matter what, it is worth exchanging her for five cities.

Although, he wished he could agree to Nan Rongzhi immediately.

But in the end, he still cared about his son Xie Junyi. He broke into the palace at night for Meng Xiyue, and then went to Lingyun Mountain to get medicine. He almost lost his life both times.

If he sent Meng Xiyue away without any care, he was afraid that his son would rebel.

"Prince Qi, what do you think of what Prince Nanrong is asking for?"

Although it was an inquiry, the emperor's eyes were full of warnings.

Xie Junyi gave a bitter smile. He couldn't keep anyone in the first place, and now Nan Rongzhi was asking for it in such a generous way.

He had to take her away openly and tell everyone that Meng Xiyue had nothing to do with him, Prince Qi, anymore.

He raised his eyes to glance at Nan Rongzhi and said in a deep voice, "Father, please fulfill the wishes of Crown Prince Nan Rong."

Leaving in this way would be the most decent way for Meng Xiyue.

Nan Rongzhi can give her everything he can't give her.

No wonder Meng Xiyue trusts her so much.

Hearing this, the emperor nodded in satisfaction, "Okay, Prince Nanrong likes Miss Meng, I will certainly help him."

"I will confer the title of Princess Yongning on Meng Xiyue and send her to Nanrong to marry the Crown Prince."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

The emperor really made a fortune by exchanging five cities for the title of a princess.

And this news soon spread throughout the capital.

A woman who was once abandoned by King Qi unexpectedly turned into a princess and was even offered five cities by the prince of an enemy country to marry her.

"What do you mean by being abandoned by Prince Qi? All your information is inaccurate."

In front of a vegetable stall, several women gathered together to discuss this matter.

A plump woman, holding her waist, said proudly, "My neighbor's sister-in-law's younger sister is working in Prince Qi's mansion. I heard that Princess Yongning didn't want to be a concubine, so she wanted to leave the mansion."

"So, it wasn't Prince Qi who abandoned her, but she who abandoned Prince Qi?"

"That's it."

Soon, the rumor that Prince Qi was abandoned spread rapidly.

Everyone also felt that Prince Qi was too pitiful. His beloved woman was married to the prince of the enemy country, and the originally designated princess turned around and wanted to marry his own brother.

In the end, he was the only one who got nothing. It was too tragic.

In the end, the rumor spread that Meng Xiyue was a goddess sent from heaven who could bring good weather and good harvests to the country.

However, King Qi handed the goddess over to others and ignored the suffering of the people. Such absurd remarks appeared.

In the private room of the restaurant.

A man and a woman sit opposite each other.

Cui Panxi said dissatisfiedly, "You think that spreading some rumors can shake the status of Prince Qi in the hearts of the people, how ridiculous?"

"It's okay to be shaken a little bit, people's hearts are worn away bit by bit."

King Liang raised his eyebrows. He was really in a good mood recently.

The only regret is that Xie Junyi did not die in Lingyun Mountain. Thinking of this, he asked.

"What do you mean by Ning'an Palace? You ran to Lingyun Mountain to save Xie Junyi regardless of the danger. You don't take me, your son-in-law, seriously at all?"

At this time, the Ning'an Palace was still helping Xie Junyi. How could he not be angry?

"Why are you angry with me?" Cui Panxi snorted coldly, "My brother went to rescue her, and my father also agreed. How could I stop them?"

What Cui Panxi didn't say was that although her father agreed to her marrying King Liang, he stated that he would not participate in the fight for the position of crown prince.

They didn't quite agree with King Liang from the bottom of their hearts.

But it doesn’t matter. After she gets married, her father and mother will not ignore her.

After a long time, they will naturally help King Liang.

Since she can't marry the man she loves, she will fight for the supreme position.

"I am not angry with you, but you, the Ning'an Palace, should make your position clear."

"I'm about to marry you, so my position shouldn't be obvious." Cui Panxi said unhappily.

"Brother and Prince Qi have fought side by side in the battlefield. It is impossible for him to stand by and watch someone die without helping."

"Forget it this time. I hope that the Ning'an Palace will not stand on the wrong side again in the future."

Don't think that he doesn't know what Prince Ning'an is thinking, but the position of crown prince is destined to be his.

The emperor has promised that once he marries Cui Panxi, he will make him the crown prince. Xie Junyi has already lost.

Cui Panxi was too lazy to argue with you. She asked, "Where's Zhao Da? Shouldn't you hand him over to me?"

"Zhao Da has already dealt with it."

King Liang picked up the teacup and looked at the people passing by.

"What do you mean it's been dealt with?"

Cui Panxi stood up suddenly and said, "You said that you would hand the person over to me after the engagement. How could you do it on your own?"

King Liang raised his eyelids and said, "Then Zhao Da is a hidden danger. Only when he is gone can you be the Princess of Rong'an forever."

"If I hand him over to you, will you do it?"

If Cui Panxi was so ruthless, she would not have let him find Zhao Da.

"But he is me after all..."

Before Cui Panxi could finish her words, she was interrupted by King Liang in a stern voice, "He was just your adoptive father, there is no other relationship."

"But he raised me after all. I can just send him to a remote place. There is no need to be so cruel."

Cui Panxi couldn't bear it, because that might be her only relative in this world.

"If we don't take ruthless action against him, someone will use him against us."

King Liang said coldly, "Remember, only the dead can keep secrets."
