The enchanting beauty is pregnant, and the heirless male protagonist is overjoyed!

"My daughter has met His Highness the Crown Prince."

The woman was tall, with a gentle and dignified temperament. When she saw Pei Qinyu, a smile was clearly revealed in her eyes, and two clouds of smiles appeared on her face.

He completely ignored Gu Yunyan who was standing next to him.

Pei Qinyu frowned, and began to dislike Feng Xiang's daughter: "This is the Princess Yunyan, who was just canonized by the Emperor yesterday. She is my future Crown Princess."

Feng Yuan's eyes widened slightly and she looked at Gu Yunyan: "Crown Princess?!"

Her father told her that the Queen and the Emperor were very pleased with her and wanted her to be the Crown Princess, and they would grant the marriage to the Crown Prince as soon as he returned.

Although she heard it yesterday.

The prince brought back from Jiangnan a woman of extraordinary beauty who saved his life, but she was of humble status.

She never took it seriously. At most, Gu Yunyan could enter the Eastern Palace as a concubine.

But now the prince said in public with his own mouth that she was his future crown princess!

What about her? What should she do?

Everyone in the capital knew tacitly that she would become the Crown Princess.

Now not only is she embarrassed, but the entire Feng family will also lose face. Who knows how many people outside will laugh at them.

Laugh at her!

Unlike when she was talking to her, Pei Qinyu turned her head and said softly with a gentle expression: "Yan'er, she is the daughter of Prime Minister Feng, a few years older than you."

How many years older! Do you dislike her age? Feng Yuan's face was a little stiff.

Gu Yunyan smiled and said, "Hello, Sister Feng."

Feng Yuan held her handkerchief tightly, smiled back, and saluted, saying, "Your humble servant greets County Lady Yunyan."

The county princess was of the second rank, and she was only the daughter of the prime minister, so she had to perform the ceremony.

The two parties were not familiar with each other, and Pei Qinyu did not want to have too much involvement with her, so he took Gu Yunyan to the private room he usually used to dine.

Feng Yuan turned around to look.

Pei Qinyu had a faint smile on her face and her eyes never left Gu Yunyan.

Gu Yunyan accidentally tripped when entering the box, and he directly hugged her in his arms and brought her into the box.

Feng Yuan's expression changed slightly.

After returning home, she went to the study in the front yard to find Prime Minister Feng.

"Dad, what should we do now? The Emperor and the Queen love the Crown Prince so much. If the Crown Prince really wants Gu Yunyan to be the Crown Princess, they will just compromise and agree."

Everyone knows how favored the prince is.

Prime Minister Feng was not in a hurry at all. He stood in front of the desk, holding a brush and writing slowly: "Why are you in a hurry? The prince is in poor health and will not be able to have his own children in the future."

"Dad?! How did you know?! Is this true?!" Feng Yuan's eyes widened.

The prince can't have children?!

Why would he not marry a noble lady from the capital, but marry Gu Yunyan, who was born into a merchant family?

"It's true."

Prime Minister Feng put down his brush and nodded, "The Emperor and the Empress wanted to conceal it, but they couldn't stop the spies from snooping around."

"Your Highness cannot marry. Your father has already chosen a new candidate for you. Our Feng family will surely produce a queen. You just need to wait to get married."

"Dad~" Feng Yuan stomped her feet, her cheeks flushed, and turned and ran away.

......

The maidservant felt sorry for her and consoled her, "Miss, don't be sad. The prince has only been bewitched by that vixen temporarily. The position of the crown princess will be yours sooner or later."

Feng Yuan put away her smile and said, "Don't talk nonsense in the future. The Crown Princess will be decided by the Emperor, Empress, and Crown Prince."

What's the point of marrying him the prince who can't have children? It's useless and the throne will fall to someone else sooner or later.

She not only wants to be the queen, she also wants to be the queen mother.

She thought that the future successor emperor would have the blood of her Feng family in his body.

Just now I actually forgot to ask my father which prince he chose for her as her husband. Well, I will know later.

The maid turned pale and stammered, "Miss, I know I was wrong. I will never say that again."

Feng Yuan's eyes flickered slightly, she beckoned with her finger, and the maid came closer.

......

"The prince is getting married."

"I heard that the Crown Princess is the newly appointed Princess Yunyan of the Emperor."

"How is that possible? Where did you hear this rumor? The prince cannot marry a woman who was born in a merchant family as his princess, and the emperor and queen cannot agree to it either."

"I happened to be at the Zhenxiu Pavilion yesterday, and I heard with my own ears that when the Crown Prince introduced Miss Feng, he said that Princess Yunyan was the future Crown Princess. How could what the Crown Prince said personally be false?"

"Although County Princess Yunyan is a county princess, she has no power except for a little money. Why does the Crown Prince want to marry her as the Crown Princess?"

"Is the prince crazy?"

"Bah! What nonsense are you talking about? Princess Yunyan is the prince's savior and she is absolutely beautiful. There is nothing wrong with the prince marrying her."

"Who doesn't want a beauty? You want one but you don't have it yet!"

"The doctors at the Imperial Hospital have been worried and studying hard since the prince returned. It seems that the prince has been seriously injured."

As soon as these words were spoken, the crowd instantly quieted down and turned to stare at the person who spoke.

There was surprise and gossip in his eyes.

The man who was speaking raised his head and said in a boastful tone, "Will the Crown Prince marry Princess Yunyan if there is no problem? Will the Emperor and Empress agree to Princess Yunyan becoming the Crown Prince's Consort?"

His reasoning was so logical that everyone actually believed him.

The news gradually spread, and the ministers asked about it when they went to court. The emperor had a cold expression on his face, and looked at the prince standing in the front with a look of disappointment.

He might have spread the news himself.

"My prince is very good! He is brave and good at fighting, and he is strong and healthy. If he can't do it, who can? You old bones?"

The elderly ministers were so anxious that their faces turned red.

Feng Xiang blushed and knelt down: "The prince's health concerns the court and the whole country. If there is a problem, it should be diagnosed and treated in time, and it should not be concealed."

"Now the people outside are saying that the prince is infertile, and the people are in a panic. This is not good for the stability of the country!"

"What nonsense!" the emperor said angrily.

The Sixth Prince advised, "Father, don't be angry. Someone may have deliberately framed the Crown Prince. As long as you summon the Imperial Physician to diagnose the Crown Prince's pulse on the spot, all the rumors will be refuted."

All the emperor's anger was directed at the Sixth Prince: "Asshole!"

"The prince's health is fine, so he doesn't need to prove his innocence. What nonsense are you talking about? Your uncle colluded with pirates and was discovered and killed by the prince. His family property was confiscated and his clan was exterminated."

"You were the most popular during the time when the prince was missing. In my opinion, you harbored a grudge and had evil intentions."

"You want to join forces with the imperial physician to frame the crown prince, slander the crown prince as infertile, and seize the crown prince's position. I tell you, forget it. I wouldn't choose you if there was no crown prince!"

The Sixth Prince was terrified and knelt down with his knees bent.

"Father, you can see clearly that I am innocent! My son and I have had a deep brotherly love since childhood, and I would never dare to have other thoughts. I only wish to be a rich and wise king and assist my brother, the crown prince."

Pei Qinyu's eyes darkened and she stepped out.

"Father, I am indeed infertile. The doctors at the Imperial Hospital have examined my pulse one by one, and they cannot be false."

"You don't have to hide it for me."

"Prince! Do you know what you are saying?" the emperor said angrily, taking a deep breath.

"I know you want to marry Princess Yunyan, but your mother and I disagree, so you resorted to this desperate measure, even at the cost of defilement. Forget it, since you want to marry me, then marry me."

"Don't mention such self-degrading words again. I don't want to hear them. Let's adjourn the court. The prince will follow."

The prince and the emperor both left.

In the Golden Palace, the Sixth Prince lowered his head, clenched his fists, and his nails dug deep into his palms.
