Rumors in the capital that Yuwen Minke loves Prince Yan have not subsided, but have intensified. Yuwen Minke even visited Prince Yan's mansion, although he was not able to enter the door.

But she still insisted on asking for an audience several times. Finally, on the third time, she was thrown a basin of cold water without warning. She looked very embarrassed.

Mo Yan, with a wooden face, stood at the gate of Prince Yan's Mansion holding a wooden basin and spoke slowly, "Our prince said that Prince Yan's Mansion will only have one princess and that is Princess Changning. If anyone dares to disrespect Princess Changning or harasses Prince Yan's Mansion again, the end will be like this basin."

After saying this, the wooden basin in Mo Yan's hand broke into two and fell to the ground. Then Mo Yan turned around and went into the mansion and closed the door, leaving Yu Wenminke standing there in a mess.

"what…"

"Princess, let's go back first."

The little maidservant who followed Yuwen Minke said tremblingly that many people had gathered around to watch the fun. They looked a little embarrassed. Why did the princess rush to do this? As a maidservant, she felt ashamed...

Yuwen Minke glared at the people watching outside the mansion before angrily speaking, "Let's go, the princess wants to go to the palace to pay her respects."

However, Bai Chuxiao did not pay attention to what happened in Prince Yan's Mansion. Instead, she packed up and went to the palace to ask for an audience with Emperor Wenxuan. It would be right to get rid of this hot potato as soon as possible.

"Your Majesty, your servant has met you."

Emperor Wenxuan was writing something, and he didn't look up when he heard her movement, but just said softly, "Get up."

Bai Chuxiao smiled slightly, "Your Majesty, regarding the candidates for the marriage, I have listed a few, please make your decision."

Jinzhong took the list and presented it to Emperor Wenxuan.

"You are not a good girl," Emperor Wenxuan just glanced at her casually and said lightly.

"Your Majesty, I will do my best to fulfill your orders."

Emperor Wenxuan raised his eyebrows, "Oh? Why does the girl from the Yu family appear here?"

Bai Chuxiao blinked and said innocently, "Your Majesty, most of the noble ladies in the capital are married. The Yu family is an aristocratic family, and the status of the fourth lady of the Yu family is worthy of it."

She would never admit that she was a private vendetta. Although the Yu family had no grudge against her, Yu Fengyang was still a friend, wasn't he? She didn't have many enemies in the capital, and those who had conflicts with her were all married, so this opportunity to become famous should be left to Fourth Miss Yu.

When the list was revealed, Fourth Miss Yu cried and made a scene, fearing that she would be chosen. She even went to beg Yu Fengyang for help, and even the head of the Yu family, Madam Yu, was polite to Fengyang, but Yu Fengyang ignored her. However, he was still very touched by Bai Chuxiao's behavior of teasing them for him.

"Since I have given it to you, the final choice will naturally be decided by you," Emperor Wenxuan said with interest.

Bai Chuxiao was helpless and rolled her eyes in her heart, but she looked calm and said, "Your Majesty, I think Fourth Miss Yu is a good one."

Emperor Wenxuan looked at her with a half-smile, "Are you sure?"

Hearing this rhetorical question, Bai Chuxiao cursed in her heart, if you want to marry your daughter, just say so directly, you actually want me to be the villain, how ridiculous, but on the surface, she could only cooperate with His Majesty the Emperor's performance, so she slowly spoke

"However, the eldest prince of Beiyan is a legitimate son, so naturally the second princess, who is also a legitimate son, is more worthy of him. For the sake of diplomatic relations between the two countries and to show the sincerity of our Great Xia, I believe the second princess will not refuse."

Emperor Wenxuan raised his lips, "Good! The Changning County Master is indeed reliable and has lived up to my expectations. As for Feng Le, you are the one who will talk to him. Do you understand?"

"Yes," Bai Chuxiao lowered her head and responded softly, "You big-headed ghost!"

"and many more"

Bai Chuxiao, who was about to leave, stopped and felt that something bad must be going on.

As expected, Emperor Wenxuan said with a half-smile, "Just now, Beiyan asked to see me, saying that they are willing to marry Princess Minke to the King of Yan to establish friendship between the two countries. Yuwen Minke is the daughter of Yuwen Yankun, so her status is reasonable. I think it is not a bad idea. What do you think?"

Bai Chuxiao's eyes turned cold, "I have already set a wedding date with the King of Yan."

Emperor Wenxuan raised his eyebrows, "Your marriage with the Seventh Prince will naturally not change, but Yuwen Minke has shown her sincerity and is willing to treat you as her master. It is okay for her to be a concubine. However, I don't want to get involved in such a trivial matter, so I will leave it to the Queen. You can discuss it yourselves."

"Yes," Bai Chuxiao replied calmly, and then she retreated. She couldn't help but sneer in her heart. The emperor was the emperor, and his means of playing with people's hearts were perfect. Just a few words could make these people fight.

On the one hand, he wants the Prince of Yan to support the Crown Prince, while on the other hand, he wants to create a rift between her and the Queen. What exactly does the Emperor want to do? Is he afraid that the Prince of Yan and the Crown Prince will really join forces to overthrow his kingdom, or is he enjoying the pleasure of sitting behind the scenes and watching everyone being manipulated by him?

But what he said just now also showed his attitude. He didn't care whether Yuwen Minke married or not, but the final result would depend on her own efforts.

Holding the decree of Emperor Wenxuan, she walked all the way to Zhaofeng Palace. This was the first time she came here on her own initiative.

Today's Zhaofeng Palace is quite lively. The Second Princess, Yuwen Minke, the Crown Princess, the Princess of Xiang, the Princess of Qi, the Concubine Xian, the Concubine Wei, and even the Concubine Jing are all here.

Bai Chuxiao's lips curled up a little. It was good that everyone was there. She strode in and bowed to everyone.

"Princess, what are you doing?" Seeing her holding the imperial edict, Concubine Wei asked first

"The candidate for the marriage has been decided. Princess, please accept my order."

Bai Chuxiao said calmly that she didn't want to waste time talking, and she didn't care what Queen Li and the Second Princess thought.

Chu Fengle came out unwillingly to accept the order. There were many people here today, and she couldn't lose her temper in front of so many people, so she had to run out of the hall angrily.

Concubine Wei raised her eyes slightly, "Hey, what happened to the Second Princess?"

Queen Li ignored her words with displeasure in her eyes. Now that the matter was settled, she couldn't say in front of everyone that she didn't want the second princess to marry him. She would lose face for nothing. However, the resentment naturally shifted to Bai Chuxiao.

So he said calmly, "Princess Changning is here, please take a seat. Speaking of which, there will be another happy event in Prince Yan's Mansion."

Bai Chuxiao smiled slightly, looking like she was listening attentively.

"Princess Minke is about to marry Prince Yan. You two are both princesses, so you should live in harmony in the future," said Queen Li with a dignified smile.

Princess Zhang Miaoke of Qi, who was standing by, naturally would not miss the opportunity to laugh at Bai Chuxiao, and could not help but sneer, "Your Majesty is right, but these two are both princesses, so how do we distinguish between the older and the younger?"

Yuwen Minke looked a little proud. Although she had been treated badly by the Prince of Yan, she had not expected that so many people in the palace would support her. Now it seemed that she might have a chance to compete for the position of the Prince of Yan's wife.

"I am older than you, Princess Changning, you can just call me sister from now on."
