I married the wrong man, and I sent him and his whole family to be executed.

Yu Wangfei got a general idea from the conversation between the few people.

It was thought that because she cured the plague in the city, the emperor wanted to confer the title of princess on her, but the officials headed by Chu Aotian disagreed with this reward, so they came to the imperial study with the emperor to continue discussing it after the morning court.

"Seventh brother, you are so protective of this woman, could it be that you have other thoughts about her?" Chu Aotian provoked.

"Shut up!" Chu Fei was a little annoyed and wanted to beat Chu Aotian up.

But the emperor was still alive, and he couldn't use violence in front of his father.

Several ministers did not want to pay attention to Yu Wangfei. They faced the emperor and finally knelt down.

Chu Fei took the opportunity to walk to Yu Wangfei's side and said softly: "The emperor's uncle has gone to find a solution. Don't worry, the position of the princess is definitely yours, and no one can take it away."

"Your Majesty, please think twice." Several ministers began to advise.

They believed that Yu Wangfei was just a little girl who had made no substantial contribution to the court, and that the ancestors of the Yu family were all from humble backgrounds. A girl from such a family could never become a princess of Da Chu.

According to the laws of the Great Chu, the position of princess is usually inherited from ancestors, or can be held by people who have made outstanding contributions to the court.

"Everyone, get out!" The emperor was annoyed by the noise, "We'll make plans after the Ninth Prince comes back."

When Chu Yuheng said those words to him, he was thinking of conferring the title of princess on Yu Wangfei. A princess from a humble family would naturally be worthy of the Ninth Prince of the Great Chu.

Besides, Chu Yuheng marrying Yu Wangfei as his princess would not bring him any benefit, which made the emperor feel relieved.

However, unexpectedly, when the proposal was raised at the morning court today, it was opposed by all civil and military officials. Some even said that regarding the plague, Yu Wangfei was stealing the credit from the old genius doctor.

Do they all think the emperor is a fool?

As early as the moment Yu Wangfei cured the plague, he sent people to investigate everything that happened in Hanshan Temple. If he didn't know the truth, he would not have guessed that Yu Wangfei was the miracle doctor killed by Chu Yuheng.

"As you command, I'll take my leave." Chu Fei bowed to the emperor and quickly pulled Yu Wangfei out.

Seeing this, the others bowed and left.

After coming out of the imperial study, they came to the side hall.

As soon as Chu Aotian entered the room, he sat directly on the high seat. Chu Fei did not compete with him for it, but took Yu Wangfei to the fireplace to warm themselves by the fire. Several ministers gathered together and looked out the window with a worried look on their faces.

"What are you waiting for?" Yu Wangfeiwen asked the doubts in his heart.

Just now Chu Fei told her to wait for Chu Yuheng, but she didn't know why she should wait for Chu Yuheng. Does it mean that the matter of enthroning her can only be concluded after he comes back?

But these officials were all against it. Even if Chu Yuheng came, he alone would not be able to win the debate with them.

"Wait for the emperor's uncle and Feng Zhao." Chu Fei said softly, "During the morning court, father wanted to confer you the title of princess, but the civil and military officials disagreed. They tried their best to stop it. The emperor's uncle said that conferring you the title of princess cannot only depend on the officials' agreement, but also on the people's agreement. So he made a bet with the officials to bring back the book within three hours. Now we just need to wait for the emperor's uncle to come."

So that's how it is. Yu Wangfei understood Chu Yuheng's idea.

As long as she has the Book of All People, she can become a princess. If not, she will still be a commoner.

But Princess Yu Wangfei didn't have too many expectations. All she wanted was to live a peaceful life.

After several people stayed in the side hall for a while, Chu Aotian became obviously impatient.

"It's already this late, I'm afraid Chu Yuheng won't be able to come back." Chu Aotian played with the teacup in his hand with disdain, "A woman actually still dreams of being recognized by the people of the world, it's simply a joke."

"What the eldest prince said is correct." The minister echoed, "If Yu Wangfei really became a princess today, I would pretend to be dead on the pillar outside the palace."

"Don't say that." Yu Wangfei stopped him quickly, "I'm afraid you will really bump into it, sir."

"You!" The minister was so angry that he pointed at Yu Wangfei, and the corners of his mouth trembled uncontrollably.

At lunch time, the emperor had his meal served in the imperial study.

The people in the side hall were hungry and could only drink tea.

When the Imperial Concubine heard that Chu Fei was still in the side hall, she felt distressed and asked someone to send some food to the side hall.

Upon seeing this, several ministers immediately started to eat with relish.

Seeing that there was lunch, Yu Wangfei walked to the table and wanted to sit down, but an old minister suddenly pulled her stool away. Fortunately, Chu Fei was quick to support her so that she did not fall to the ground.

"What are you doing!" Chu Fei glared at him angrily.

"Women are not allowed to sit at the table." The old minister snorted coldly, his tone full of disdain for Yu Wangfei, "Letting her eat at the same table with us is an insult to us."

Hearing this, the eldest prince couldn't help but applaud: "Well said, she is just a commoner, how can she be qualified to eat with us? It is a gift to her to let her enter the palace today and feel the majesty of the palace."

"This is the food I reward you with. You don't deserve to eat it!" The imperial concubine suddenly came in.

She just arrived a little late, and she heard this group of people slandering a woman, which made her feel disgusted as a woman herself.

The palace maids immediately came in, poured the food that the ministers had just touched into the slop bucket, and took it out.

Then, several fathers-in-law brought some new dishes and placed them on another table.

"I thought that all the ministers came from noble families and naturally learned etiquette and upbringing from childhood. Unexpectedly, you are not as well-educated as a woman from a humble family." The imperial concubine sneered, then glanced at the ministers again.

Fortunately, I did not try to please them and let them help Chu Fei, otherwise I might not be able to keep my position as the Seventh Prince.

"We all respect Her Majesty, so please be careful with your words." A minister stood up and looked at the imperial concubine indignantly.

Chu Aotian on the side did not speak. It was not that he was unwilling to speak, but he knew the status of the imperial concubine in the emperor's heart, and was afraid that what he said would be exaggerated by the imperial concubine and told to the emperor.

"Are you Yu Wangfei?" The imperial concubine pretended not to hear what they said. She took the initiative to walk in front of Yu Wangfei, looking at her carefully with a smile in her eyes.

She looks like a good person. No wonder the Gu family and Chu Yuheng are thinking about her. It would be great if she was really pregnant with Chu Fei's child, but unfortunately she is Chu Yuheng's.

But it’s better this way. After all, Yu Wangfei’s identity doesn’t allow her to be Chu Fei’s woman.

"I'm a commoner." Yu Wangfei saluted.

"Come and eat here." The Imperial Concubine glanced at the table and said, "I prepared this specially for you. No one else is allowed to touch it except Xiao Qi."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Yu Wangfei felt complicated.

Of course she knew that it was the Imperial Concubine and the Gu family's idea that she was sent to Chu Fei's bed, so she had no good feelings towards the Imperial Concubine either in her past life or this life.
