In ancient times, she gave birth to seven daughters and was divorced by her husband's family.

The emperor looked embarrassed. He couldn't tell the empress dowager and the queen that he had granted marriage to Bai Lu and Pei Huizhou.

Pei Huizhou didn't seem willing to speak at this time, after all, there were so many people here.

The emperor coughed twice, and then started to play a riddle in front of everyone.

He said to Pei Huizhou: "I'm afraid that won't work. After all, the emperor's decree... there's no reason to take it back."

Pei Huizhou's face turned green. Just as he was about to say something, he saw the Queen Mother and the others looking at him curiously. Then he realized... he was actually angered by Bai Lu and fainted.

It's embarrassing to say such a thing in front of so many people.

Pei Huizhou frowned and said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, I have something important to report. Please move to the side hall."

The emperor nodded and followed Pei Huizhou to the side hall.

The Queen Mother and the Empress watched them disappear. They looked at each other and heard the Empress whisper, "What happened to Huizhou?"

The Queen Mother shook her head and smiled, "I don't know."

Seeing Pei Huizhou's helpless look, I guess this matter is related to Bai Lu.

Since it is related to Bai Lu, then Pei Huizhou must have suffered a loss. Bai Lu... is not someone who will suffer a loss.

The Queen Mother was very happy when she saw this.

The Queen also laughed when she saw the Queen Mother's happy expression, and said to Hongying beside her: "The Queen Mother hasn't laughed like this for a long time. It must be a good thing."

"Yeah, that should be a good thing..."

Not long after, the emperor and Pei Huizhou came out from the side hall next door.

The emperor's expression did not reveal his joy or anger, but Pei Huizhou's face was ashen and he looked very angry.

The Queen and the Queen Mother were both shocked. After exchanging pleasantries, they couldn't help but ask the Emperor curiously, "What happened?"

The emperor then smiled and said, "I am too shy to return to the boat."

"I granted marriage to Huizhou and Bailu, allowing them to start a family, but... Huizhou is not happy about it."

"..."

Hearing this, the Queen and the Queen Mother were silent.

Let Pei Huizhou and Bai Lu get married...they feel that the two don't seem to be a good match.

At this time, Pei Huizhou said to the emperor angrily: "Your Majesty! This is absolutely inappropriate."

"Oh? Don't you like Bailu?" the emperor's eyes were sharp.

Pei Huizhou was silent for a moment, then said, "It's not because I don't like her, but because... His Royal Highness the Crown Prince also likes Bai Lu!"

"???"

"!!!"

The queen next to her was eating a melon, and the melon suddenly fell on her!

She was a little surprised, and immediately stood up and shouted angrily: "Pei Huizhou, this is not something you say casually!"

If the prince likes a widow like Bai Lu, it would probably affect his reputation and his marriage if the news got out!

After hearing this, the Queen Mother's expression changed!

He quickly stood up and said to Pei Huizhou: "Shut up!"

"Pei Huizhou, even if you don't like Bai Lu, you can't just casually slander Bai Lu's reputation, and the reputation of the prince!"

"They are both... one is your lord, and the other is your friend. How dare you slander them both like this."

The Queen Mother didn't think there would be any problem with Bai Lu marrying the Prince.

Although Bai Lu is a widow, if she can win the prince's heart, that is her ability. If they love each other and can be together, that is also good.

But I clearly feel that Bai Lu doesn't like anyone.

She didn't like either the Crown Prince or Pei Huizhou.

If Bai Lu were to marry the prince, she would be unhappy.

Hearing this, Pei Huizhou smiled, turned his head to look at the pale and surprised queen beside him, and said: "Queen, you don't have to deny it, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince really likes Bai Lu!"

"Madam Bailu and His Royal Highness are cousins... They are closer than others. The affection between cousins ​​is different. It is much stronger than the affection between me and Bailu."

"The reason why Your Highness the Crown Prince and I had a fight before was because of Lady Bai Lu."

"Now, His Majesty has granted marriage to me and Lady Bailu, but I dare not marry casually, because Lady Bailu and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince are already in love with each other."

"If I were to marry Lady Bai Lu, it would probably hurt His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's feelings. It would be bad to separate a couple."

"...Madam Bailu and His Royal Highness, the friendship between them is so deep that I cannot destroy it."

"So, I would like to ask Your Majesty, the Queen Mother, and the Empress to help you take back your order. Why not...don't grant me and Lady Bailu a marriage, but grant Lady Bailu and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince a marriage instead?"

After hearing these words, the queen stepped forward and angrily slapped Pei Huizhou!

“You are so outrageous!”

"Pei Huizhou, you were spoiled too much by the palace before, which made you say such a disrespectful thing!"

"What about Bai Lu and the prince getting married... How can they get married?!"

"......When the prince marries, even if the girl he finds is not from a high-class family, she can't be a widow."

Oh my god, the queen was almost angry to death, and said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, please stop listening to Pei Huizhou's nonsense."

"...Between Bai Lu and the prince, they only have a simple relationship, but it has nothing to do with love."

"The Crown Prince is now devoted to governing the country and sharing the worries of Your Majesty and the world. Your Majesty, please don't listen to Pei Huizhou's nonsense here!"

After listening to the queen's words, the emperor felt overwhelmed.

He didn't know what was going on between the prince and Bai Lu, but he could understand that there was definitely no romantic relationship between Bai Lu and Pei Huizhou.

The corners of his mouth twitched, and he said to the Queen and Pei Huizhou: "Forget it, forget it, you guys study it here first, I have something else to do, so I'll leave now."

"...I won't chat with you guys any more, haha."

Having said that, the emperor turned around and really wanted to slip away quietly.

At this time, the queen quickly pulled the emperor back and said to him with a gloomy face: "Your Majesty, you are not allowed to leave!"

The emperor was confused and felt a headache.

Oh my God, the Queen won’t let me leave, so...what should I do now?

Afterwards, the queen said to the emperor with a gloomy face: "Your Majesty, please call Bai Lu and the prince over so that we can talk things out together."

When the Queen Mother heard what the Queen said, her face darkened.

If Bailu and the prince were called over at this time, they would definitely feel awkward, and there would definitely be some estrangement between them.

After all, the Queen called Bai Lu and the Prince over just to force Bai Lu to say that she didn't like the Prince, and also to force the Prince to say that he didn't like Bai Lu.

Sometimes...even if they don't like each other, it's still very unpleasant to say such things.

Pei Huizhou was really amazing. He managed to provoke the Queen's anger with just a few words and directed all the dirty water directly onto Bai Lu.
