After being rejected, he emptied the mansion and went into exile

Xiang Hongxuan naturally agreed.

"Just tell me what you want me to do, as long as it doesn't involve the Crown Prince."

Upon hearing this, the eldest prince glared at Xiang Hongxuan.

Why can't it be related to the prince?

It's because they are afraid that he will seize the position of crown prince.

These people are so boring.

Do you really think he wants the throne?

How could it be more enjoyable than being a leisurely prince and traveling around with Shen Tingyao?

Morning court every day is painful enough now.

But as a prince, you can take leave and you can also choose not to take on any duties.

However, he must not let the emperor and the queen mother know these thoughts.

Especially the Queen Mother.

Xiang Hongxuan looked at the eldest prince with a disdainful expression. It seemed that the help he needed to help must be related to the crown prince.

"If one day I am framed, you must save me."

Xiang Hongxuan thought that it had nothing to do with the throne.

There are not many people who can frame the eldest prince.

Xiang Hongxuan thought of the emperor.

And what the eldest prince just said.

He stared at the eldest prince and asked, "I was in a hurry and didn't hear what you said clearly. Are you saying that the emperor doesn't care about me?"

The eldest prince looked surprised.

"General Xiang has indeed followed the Crown Prince. Now that he has grown so powerful, he actually speaks of such outrageous things in the streets."

Xiang Hongxuan glared at the eldest prince angrily.

Thinking about these words, we really can't discuss them anymore.

In short, he is now very sure that the eldest prince must have disliked the emperor for a long time.

even……

disgust.

The person he just mentioned who framed him was most likely the emperor.

The eldest prince saw that Xiang Hongxuan was looking at him strangely, and he felt a little uneasy being stared at.

"Why are you so long-winded? Just say whether you agree or not. You are a great general, but you are imitating the ways of some civil officials."

The eldest prince knew that Xiang Hongxuan was quite scheming and not just an ordinary ignorant and reckless military general.

Xiang Hongxuan smiled when he heard this. "In that case, I agree to your request. But there is one thing I don't understand..."

He glanced at the eldest prince, who looked cynical, and said, "You also know that I now obey the orders of the crown prince and am your biggest political enemy."

"Why are you taking this opportunity to ask me to stand on your side?"

The eldest prince looked confused when he heard this. He smiled and said, "I don't need it."

Xiang Hongxuan understood.

"I promise you."

The eldest prince got the answer he wanted, threatened Xiang Hongxuan a few more times, and then left.

Xiang Hongxuan just thought that the eldest prince was playing a trick on him and asked Shen Tingyao to only tell Shen Jinyao that they couldn't meet.

However, he didn't know that in Shen Jinyao's heart, he had already become a fickle and unfaithful man.

He even used his ex-lover to help the girl he liked now get out of trouble.

Xiang Hongxuan knew that since he couldn't meet Shen Jinyao, he had to give her some time.

This matter needs to be done slowly.

Although the Xiang family had driven Xiang Hongxuan out, members of the Xiang family still had to attend his wedding.

Xiang Hongxuan has been dealing with this matter these days.

In addition, his father Xiang Heng specifically submitted a memorial requesting that his marriage be postponed.

The reason is that the eldest prince's marriage is more important, and she cannot get married on the same day as the eldest prince.

That day, he argued with the prince, and finally the emperor agreed with a sullen face.

He knew that all this was due to the fact that the kings of the four countries were coming to Shangjing.

It was for this reason that he had to hurry up and finalize his marriage with Shen Jinyao before the kings of the four countries came to Shangjing.

Otherwise, there are too many variables.

Shen Jinyao didn't know what Xiang Hongxuan was thinking.

Apart from feeling a little emotional after talking to Shen Tingyao that day, she was so busy afterwards that she almost forgot about Xiang Hongxuan.

She even had some doubts, was she really going to get married?

Aren’t you busy with Shen Tingyao’s marriage?

Now the Shen family has prepared all the dowries for the two.

Each person had twenty loads of dowry.

This is not considered very glorious among the wealthy families in Shangjing City.

However, if a family wants to marry off two daughters, it will empty the family's savings no matter which family it is.

What's more, the Shen family had just returned from exile, so it was surprising that they could come up with so much dowry.

This gave those who wanted to see the joke a break.

A few days before the wedding, some people wanted to make a fuss about the Shen family's dowry.

It is said that when the Shen family was searched, they hid some silver, which is why there was so much dowry.

Shen Maoshan was dissatisfied and reported directly to the emperor.

The fact that the Shen family was confiscated and exiled was brought to light again.

The ministers talked about it again and again, and also mentioned that Shen Maoshan was suspected of selling out his country for personal gain.

Shen Maoshan was ready to die to clear his name.

The emperor was so angry that he scolded many people in succession, and announced that the marriage of the Shen family, the eldest prince and Xiang Hongxuan would be held together.

The aristocratic families in Shangjing City stopped making trouble when they saw that the emperor's fate was decided.

Quietly waiting for the wedding day to see if there will be any new excitement.

The ministers were relieved, but the emperor was troubled by headaches all day long.

Ever since he felt unwell that day, he had been suffering from headaches.

I originally wanted to cause trouble for the Shen family, Xiang Hongxuan and others, but I had to give up because of the unbearable headache.

Eunuch Gao looked at the frowning emperor.

He asked softly, "Your Majesty, it's time to take your medicine."

The emperor took a look at the medicine in Eunuch Gao's hand and finally shook his head.

The imperial physician said that he was suffering from a combination of impatience and excessive worry, which was why he had been suffering from headaches recently.

The imperial physician also told him to calm down.

How does he stay calm?

He was completely fooled by the prince, Xiang Hongxuan and the Shen family.

If only he had been one step earlier, Shen Jinyao would have been his.

Ah!

It was said that Shen Jinyao and Xiang Hongxuan had already fallen in love with each other when they were in Wuhe Village.

It is absolutely impossible.

The village chief said that there was no love between the two of them.

He thought of finding someone to verify the news, but the village chief of Wuhe Village had already asked him to order the man to be killed.

It is definitely too late to go to Wuhe Village to find other witnesses now.

Seeing that the kings of the four countries were about to arrive at Shangjing City, he prepared to "catch the turtle in the jar".

This is not the time to deal with Xiang Hongxuan.

Just wait, he will make all four countries submit to him, and then he will be the overlord in the sky.

"It's no use drinking it, just put it aside for now."

Eunuch Gao put the medicine back as he was told.

"Your Majesty, you should listen more to the imperial physician..."

The emperor lowered his head and said nothing, but asked other questions instead.

"Why haven't I seen Lady Ning recently?"

Eunuch Gao lowered his head and said, "Your Majesty, Concubine Ning has caught a cold and is lying in bed."

After listening to this, the emperor shook his head again.

I feel like I'm overthinking it.

How could Concubine Ning help the prince?

It seems that everything that happened that day was just a coincidence.

"Eunuch Gao, I really can't swallow this anger. We were just one step away."

Eunuch Gao then looked up at the emperor, only to see that he had a hideous and terrifying face.

"The emperor is happy or angry, please take care of your health."

The emperor listened to Eunuch Gao's meaningless words and said with disgust, "Go away, I will stay here for a while."

"Hey, have the Imperial Hospital send some precious medicinal herbs to Concubine Ning."
