Gong Beixuan and Chu Feiyan rushed to the front yard and both knelt down to receive the order.

Eunuch Bi opened the imperial edict in his hand and read: "The Emperor, by the Will of Heaven, proclaims:

I have heard that the universe is created by the interaction of yin and yang. Now I have a loyal and good minister, Chu Feiyan, who has made outstanding contributions and served the country with loyalty. He is a pillar of the country. I highly praise his loyalty and talent!

Princess Min'an is already twenty-two years old. In order to avoid wasting her youth, I will specially choose a good husband for her.

Today, we have the Imperial Preceptor Gong Beixuan, who is only 21 years old. He is elegant and well-mannered, possesses rare talent, is both virtuous and able, and is good at assisting in government affairs. He and Princess Min'an are indeed a perfect match. In order to demonstrate the emperor's great grace and win the favor of the monarch and his subjects, we specially promote their marriage!

My marriage is granted by the imperial power, and the whole world has signed it! You should be grateful, abide by the duties of a minister, and live up to my expectations!

Announce it to the world and let everyone know.

Admire this! "

"Thank you Lord for your grace!"

Chu Feiyan and Gong Beixuan kowtowed to express their gratitude.

"Congratulations to the Imperial Preceptor, and Princess Min'an. This is a match made in heaven, and a great joy!" Eunuch Bi handed the imperial edict to them with a smile.

"Thank you, eunuch!" Chu Feiyan took the purse handed over by Xia An and put it in the hands of Eunuch Bi. "Eunuch, you have worked hard. A little gift is not enough to show respect. I am drinking tea for you, so please don't despise it."

Eunuch Bi secretly weighed the weight in his hand, and the wrinkles on his face deepened his smile. "Thank you for the reward, Princess. I have to go back to the palace to serve Your Majesty, so I won't bother you two any more."

"Father-in-law, walk slowly!"

After seeing off Eunuch Bi, Gong Beixuan and Chu Feiyan went to the Duke of Weiguo's Mansion together and told the old duke about the emperor's marriage for them.

The Duke of Wei's mansion was filled with joy and happiness. Qiao Sheng even had people set off firecrackers outside the gate to attract the attention of passers-by.

The old Duke was very happy, and immediately took Chu Feiyan, Chu Wenzhao, Gong Beixuan and Qiao Sheng to the Chu family's ancestral temple. He placed the imperial decree of marriage in front of the ancestral tablets, and then asked Gong Beixuan to worship the ancestors as his grandson-in-law.

The news of their granted marriage spread quickly, causing a huge uproar in Jinxiu City. People were talking about it everywhere, and there were people who were envious, jealous, and hateful.

In the court, except for a few military officers who had good relations with the Duke of Weiguo's Mansion, it could be said that few people were willing for Chu Feiyan to marry Gong Beixuan.

Chu Feiyan was a general who assisted the country. She was already powerful enough. If she married the imperial teacher, wouldn't she be able to cover the sky with one hand in the imperial court? Even the emperor's princes and princesses had to avoid her.

Xiao Changchuan also learned that they had been arranged to marry, and felt very upset, as if his most precious thing had been taken away from him. He could not accept the fact for a while, and his eyes went dark and he fainted. He lay in bed for three days and three nights before waking up.

After waking up, he seemed to have become stupid, staring blankly at the ceiling of the tent without eating or drinking, which made Xin Wuhou and his wife almost anxious to death.

Xiao Changchuan is now the hope of the Marquis' Mansion. If anything happens to him, the Xiao family will be really finished.

"Master, something bad has happened..." An old woman hurried in.

Lan was in a bad mood to begin with. Seeing this woman being so unruly, she angrily scolded, "How can you be so flustered?"

The old woman was startled and knelt down, "Madam, Aunt Mei's stomach hurts again today, let the eldest master go over to take a look."

"What did you say?" Xiao Changchuan, who had been lying lifeless on the bed, suddenly sat up and asked nervously, "What happened to Mei Niang?"

"Aunt Mei said she had a stomachache and asked you to come over and take a look..."

Before the old woman finished her words, Xiao Changchuan had already rolled off the bed, running out with his shoes slipping off his feet and without even putting on his outer robe.

The baby in Mei Niang's belly is his greatest hope, nothing must happen to it!

"Chuan'er, wait a minute..." Lan picked up the cloak beside her and chased after him.

Xiao Changchuan ran out of the room and a cold wind blew in his face, making him shiver.

At this time, Lan came out and took the cloak and put it on himself, "Mother, please go and get a doctor."

"Chuan'er..."

"Chuan'er asked you to go get a doctor, didn't you hear me?" Xin Wuhou followed her out, yelled at her, and then went to see Mei Niang.

Lan Shi was aggrieved and angry after being yelled at by him. "It's just that a concubine is pregnant, and the child will be a concubine's. Why are you so nervous?"

There was already no money in the mansion, and yet she had to hire a doctor and buy supplements for this bitch every few days. It really made her angry to death.

"You are such a lowly bitch that you are not worthy of being on the stage. I will make you pay back all the money you spent after the baby is born."

No matter how angry she was, she still told her old woman to go get a doctor.

In fact, there was nothing wrong with the child in Mei Niang's belly. She just heard that Xiao Changchuan fainted on the spot because Chu Feiyan was granted marriage to the imperial teacher. After waking up, she refused to eat or drink. She was jealous and upset, so she used the child in her belly to call Xiao Changchuan over!

She knew that Xiao Changchuan valued this child very much. As long as it was related to the child, this man would become extremely nervous and agree to any request. Moreover, this method had always worked, and it would be the same this time.

Sure enough, after a while, Mei Niang heard the sound of hurried footsteps outside, and a triumphant smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

What beloved woman? It was just a man's dignity. Even if Chu Feiyan didn't leave the Marquis' Mansion, he still couldn't beat her. Sooner or later, the position of the main wife would be hers.

However, Lan had already held a grudge against her, and would certainly torture her after the child was born.

*****

Prince Rui's Mansion.

When Han Zhiyu found out that Gong Beixuan and Chu Feiyan were arranged to get married, she was almost mad to death and gnashed her teeth in hatred.

He originally wanted to use rumors to cause trouble for Chu Feiyan, to make her lose face in Jinxiu City and have everyone despise her, but he didn't expect that he would end up making things worse and instead pair those two together.

"That dog emperor is also blind. He actually promoted such a despicable woman. Can't he see that the bitch is ambitious?"

She is just a divorced woman, how could she marry so well that even Xiao Changchuan can't forget her!

Qiao Ling, who was standing next to her, was so shocked that she quickly knelt down and said, "Princess, be careful about what you say."

Han Zhiyu just realized what she said. She broke out in a cold sweat, but for the sake of face, she slapped Qiaoling loudly, "Bitch, did you hear what this princess said?"

Qiao Ling got up and lowered her head and said, "No...didn't you say anything? I didn't hear anything."

"It's good that you didn't hear it."

Han Zhiyu turned around and sat on the couch, picked up the teacup, and seeing that the tea had gone cold, he became annoyed and threw the cup to the ground, breaking it into pieces.

"Get out! You are more likely to cause trouble than to help me! I am annoyed when I see you."

"Yes!" Qiaoling got up, picked up the broken pieces of the teacup swiftly, and walked out.

As soon as I opened the door, I heard a sudden scream.

"what--"
