Marry my elder sister? Fine! I'll give you the letter of annulment and marry someone else.

The next morning.

Sitting in the warm room, Song Zhi's mind was filled with Mu Nanqi's eyes that were like the sea of ​​stars last night.

He restrained himself and returned to the rites, never crossing that last line.

Song Zhi didn't care, but Mu Nanqi was very persistent on this matter.

Since he is so tolerant, she won't be too proactive.

Nothing major happened in the next few days, and preparations for the wedding were in full swing.

It was not until a few days later that the emperor announced Mu Nanqi's life story to the world without any warning, to everyone's shock.

All the civil and military officials in the court were shocked, and the people were also jaw-dropping.

The emperor so eloquently brought this royal secret to the public.

Everyone then came to their senses. How could a useless idiot like Mu Qinghan be the late queen's child?

His appearance, ability, and knowledge have nothing to do with the late queen.

Mu Nanqi looks so much like the late queen and has extraordinary abilities.

In the past, if the emperor had not really disliked Mu Nanqi and made it clear that he had no chance of becoming emperor, most of the ministers in the court would probably have supported him.

Now that the truth is out, everyone is shocked to realize how much injustice Mu Nanqi has suffered.

She should have been a pampered swan that grew up in the spotlight, but she became a sparrow that was nearly strangled.

There were even many people who had received favors from the late queen who directly suggested that Mu Nanqi be made the crown prince. They believed that the crown prince position should have been his, but it was taken away by others one after another.

This made Mu Yuanzhi very embarrassed.

The reason why he was made the crown prince was because the eldest son had died.

Now that the true eldest son has returned, it would be a bit unreasonable for Mu Yuanzhi to continue to occupy the position of crown prince.

Originally, the emperor wanted to use this momentum to directly make Mu Nanqi accept the position of crown prince.

Although Mu Nanqi has not forgiven him yet, he has handed the country into his hands. What hatred can't be resolved?

What he didn't expect was that a considerable number of people would say that Mu Yuanzhi had performed excellently during his time as crown prince and that his contributions should not be erased. This was unfair to him and that Mu Yuanzhi should continue to serve as the crown prince.

Besides, the crown prince is a matter of great importance to the country, so how can it be changed like a child's play?

Changing it again and again will only lead to a loss of prestige.

Everyone spoke seriously and advised the emperor to think twice.

The emperor's face was as gloomy as water. He really wanted to deal with these old guys directly, but he also knew that now was not the time to do so.

Mu Yuanzhi quickly stepped forward to help. "Father, don't be angry. Right now, my third brother hasn't shown any intention of inheriting the throne. In my opinion, it's better to let him make some achievements first. When that happens, he will naturally win the support of the people. Then I can give up the position of Crown Prince and silence the gossip."

The emperor's anger was appeased and he felt that this made a lot of sense.

Under his suppression, Mu Nanqi has indeed not done anything outstanding in recent years.

The ministers in the court knew of Mu Nanqi's talent, but Tianqi was a vast country with seventy-two cities, and not every city knew of Mu Nanqi's abilities.

It is not a good idea to let him parachute in rashly as it will be difficult to convince the public.

Thinking about it, the emperor calmed down and said, "Then it's as you say."

Mu Yuanzhi showed his planned smile, and in the eyes of outsiders, he was still gentle and honest.

Everything that is happening now, every step is moving forward according to his deployment.

The emperor began to send gifts to Gouer Lane. All the rare treasures and silks that were presented as tribute were carried to Gouer Lane like a stream.

Song Zhi originally thought that Mu Nanqi would definitely refuse these things because he would not be moved by poverty or power.

Unexpectedly, Mu Nanqi accepted it so calmly.

He had all the things placed in Song Zhi's yard.

Song Zhi was puzzled. "Why would you keep these?"

Although they are all good things, to be honest, she is not lacking in them.

Mu Nanqi said meaningfully: "Don't miss out on the benefits that can be put into practice. These are what I deserve, and the national treasury is depleting very quickly. If I don't keep them, it will only benefit others."

Song Zhi nodded in admiration. As expected of Master Qi, he was very thoughtful.

So she gladly accepted these things and sold them all.

Afraid that someone would notice anything, they took all the silver they sold back to Gouer Lane and walked around to confirm that no one was following them before quietly sending it to the border.

More than a month after Song Zhi left, Xin Wanyun recruited more soldiers and had more and more money to spend.

Now, they have 350,000 soldiers and horses.

A large team needs enough silver and money to support it. Fortunately, the wise king left enough silver, and Yunshui Youyou is also making money continuously, so she is not very worried about the shortage of money at the moment.

But no matter how rich she is, she can't just sit around and enjoy all her money. Even a small amount of money is still meat, and she won't miss any opportunity to make money.

Seeing Song Zhi turning into a money-grubber, Mu Nanqi silently handed the deed to his shop to her.

At this time, she turned into a wealthy and powerful person and said: "Don't worry, I have money to support others, you can keep these things to support me."

Mu Nanqi gave it to him several times, but Song Zhi rejected it every time.

He no longer insisted. It didn't matter who held the two of them.

At the same time, because Song Yang was rewarded for his contribution in finding out the truth, the emperor personally wrote a calligraphy for him.

Song Yang cursed about this for several days and was so angry that he ate half a bowl less of rice.

If you have money, give it boxes of it to Gouer Lane, but if you don’t have money, reward him as a great contributor, right?

Damn it! Instead of tarnishing him with gold, silver, and jewels, they actually gave him a crooked piece of calligraphy. Could it be that the national treasury is out of money again?!

Who cares about these words?

Song Yang was secretly complaining in his heart, and he felt awkward when he went to court for several days.

The emperor, perhaps because he felt he was in the wrong or for some other reason, temporarily avoided this "sharp edge".

Song Zhi suddenly felt balanced about the mansion that Wang Lanzhi had rewarded him with for his meritorious service.

At least she has a priceless mansion, but her father only has a few broken words.

When Song Zhi thought of Song Yang's angry look, he couldn't help laughing.

Because the emperor temporarily gave up the idea of ​​appointing another prince, the former dynasty was relatively peaceful.

In this calm and peaceful environment, the wedding day soon arrived.

This wedding banquet was unprecedentedly grand and lively, which amazed everyone.

Ten miles of red wedding dresses, red silk fluttering in the wind, gongs and drums roaring, and ritual music resounding.

There were so many guests at the Song Mansion that there was no room for them to sit down, and many people had to stand.

Those who stood to participate not only had no complaints, but instead felt it was their honor to witness this great joy.

Song Zhi wore a bright red veil on her head and heard the bustling noises outside. Then, she completed each step under the guidance of the ceremonial officer.

After the ceremony, she was sent to the bridal chamber prepared in Qingfeng Courtyard, while Mu Nanqi stayed in the front yard.

There were many maids waiting outside the door. She sat upright on the bed waiting for Mu Nanqi to lift the veil.
