My best friend is wearing a double body! Marry the emperor! Help me win the throne

Murong Che's eyes fell on Zhou Qianhe's face. He didn't answer on the spot, but just stared at him for a long moment.

Zhou Qianhe felt uneasy when Murong Che stared at him, and even cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

If he had not been to Xunhuan Tower before and had the painter painted a scene of him with several young girls..., he would not have been caught by Murong Ye and threatened by him.

Just as he was about to say something else, Murong Che spoke slowly, "Arranging a marriage for the two princesses is a great joyous event. How can I refuse?"

Seeing Murong Che agreed without asking any questions, Zhou Qianhe secretly breathed a sigh of relief, "I thank the emperor on behalf of the two princesses!"

So, after the court session, Lan Zheng and Lan Luo heard that Murong Che had allowed them to go to the Cining Palace to ask the Queen Mother for permission to marry, and they went to the Cining Palace without any delay.

Originally, Murong Ye wanted Lan Zheng to enter the palace earlier, but the recent incident in Xunhuan Tower made him very anxious, so he delayed it for a few days.

But it doesn’t matter. The longer the puppet Gu stays in the host’s body, the better it will fuse with the host, and the easier it will be to control.

"Fourth sister, have you chosen who you want to marry?"

On the way, Lan Luo turned her head to look at the people walking beside her, "But, the men I've been in contact with recently are all bastards, and I don't want to marry any of them at all. I originally thought I could enter the harem of the Emperor of Jiuzhou, but I didn't expect to be rejected. It's ridiculous to think about it. As princesses of a defeated country, what's the difference between us and abandoned goods?"

Lan Zheng listened to her sister's complaint without any expression. She just nodded without any emotion and said, "Yeah, that's right."

Lan Luo then asked her, "Lord Zhou asked us to ask the Queen Mother for a marriage. Do you have a target in mind?"

Lan Zheng shook her head, "No."

Seeing her cold reaction, Lan Luo couldn't help but say, "Fourth sister, why aren't you anxious at all? This is crucial to our lifelong happiness!"

After saying this, Lan Luo was stunned for a moment, then suddenly raised the corners of his lips in self-mockery. "No, when our father chose us to marry, we had already lost the right to happiness. But I won't accept this. I've lived a life of luxury since I was a child. Why should I come to Jiuzhou like a fish on a chopping board, left to be slaughtered by them? Don't you think so?"

Lan Zheng nodded mechanically, "Yes."

Lan Luo was furious when he saw Lan Zheng's perfunctory answer. "Forget it! You look like you've already accepted your fate! I don't want to accept it! When I see the Queen Mother later, I still want to give it a try and ask her to grant me a marriage with Xue Wuji, the eldest son of the Xue family!"

During the autumn hunt, she secretly compared them and found that among the many young civil and military officials, Xue Jia Dalang was the most handsome.

If she were to marry, she would marry a brave and warlike general like Xue Wuzhi.

So what if his hands are stained with the blood of Nanzhao soldiers?

Xue Wuzhi is a man worthy of entrusting your life to.

For the sake of his lifelong happiness, Lan Luo plans to take a gamble!

After she made up her mind, she turned around and glared at Lan Zheng, "You don't care about your marriage, you will regret it one day!"

After saying that, she quickened her pace, deliberately leaving Lan Zheng more than a foot behind.

Lan Zheng seemed to be still immersed in her own world, with a dull expression on her face and even her eyes a little distracted.

After the two sisters walked away, Murong Ye emerged from the shadow behind the rockery, his dark eyes slightly narrowed, staring at their backs, with a sinister arc at the corner of his lips.

Today is October 15th, and all the concubines in the harem must go to the Cining Palace to pay their respects to Empress Dowager Yin.

After Chu Xinyue entered the palace yesterday, Empress Dowager Yin kept her overnight and she is now in the Cining Palace.

The thought that she would obey his orders and kill Xue Youli made him uncontrollably excited.

I wonder if Murong Che will burst into tears when he hears the sad news that Xue Youli was killed by Princess Kang's sword?

Thinking of this, Murong Ye slowly raised his head and looked at the clear and cloudless sky.

Night Crow, rest in peace. I will definitely avenge you. Killing Xue Youli is just the first step. I will make the entire Xue family be buried with you!

Murong Ye stared at the sky for a moment, then strode towards the Cining Palace with the whistle in his hand.

He hadn't been to the Cining Palace for a long time, and it was time for him to pay his respects to his mother.

……

"Yue'er, these are your favorite snacks when you were in the palace. I specially asked the kitchen to make them for you. Please eat more."

Chu Xinyue rarely comes to the palace, and Empress Dowager Yin really wants to let her taste all the delicious food.

"Thank you, mother."

Chu Xinyue pinched a piece of cake and handed it to Xue Youli next to her, "Ali, you have some too."

Queen Mother Yin once intended to help her niece ascend to the throne, but unfortunately, although Yin Xuan'er had some brains, it was not much, and she fought with Xue Youli several times and ended up in failure.

Later, seeing that Chu Xinyue and Xue Youli had a good relationship, Queen Mother Yin gradually became more open-minded.

Since the Yin family currently has no young lady who can ascend to the throne, she will just wait and see.

The throne should belong to the most capable person.

If they want to fight, let them do it.

She would sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight. If the tigers lost their composure and tried to bite their opponents to death, she would step in and give them a beating.

Just as Empress Dowager Yin was watching Chu Xinyue eat cakes with a loving look on her face, Nanny Li came to report, "Empress Dowager, the two princesses of Nanzhao have requested an audience. They said they are here to pay their respects to you."

"Invite them in."

Queen Mother Yin withdrew her gaze and looked towards the door.

Upon hearing this, the concubines stopped drinking tea and turned their eyes towards the palace entrance.

Soon, Lan Zheng and Lan Luo walked into the hall under the gaze of everyone.

They stopped about two or three feet away from Queen Mother Yin and said, "Greetings to Her Majesty the Queen Mother! Greetings to Her Majesty the Queen Mother."

Empress Dowager Yin raised her hand to signal them to stand up, "You are so thoughtful. Madam Li will grant you a seat."

"Thank you, Queen Mother!"

After Lan Zheng finished speaking, she stood up and prepared to sit down, but Lan Luo was still kneeling on the ground and had not gotten up.

Seeing this, Queen Mother Yin couldn't help but ask, "Princess Lanluo, why don't you get up?"

Lan Luo replied, "Empress Dowager, I would like to ask for your grace. Please grant me a marriage between me and General Xue Wuji! I am deeply in love with General Xue, and I hope that the Empress Dowager can fulfill my wish!"

Xue Qingyao, who was sitting across from Xue Youli, chuckled as soon as these words came out. "General Xue is a skilled warrior, and Princess Lanluo is charming and lovely. If they could get married, they would truly be a match made in heaven!"

Seeing Xue Qingyao's eagerness to watch the fun, Xue Youli calmly said, "Princess Luo'er, I remember during the autumn hunt, my eldest brother made it clear in front of the Emperor that he didn't want to marry a princess from Nanzhao. Why did you come to the Empress Dowager to beg for help?"

Lan Luo's face froze, and he spoke with deep affection, "Madam Xue, Luo'er really likes General Xue. I hope you can help us! Help us!"

Xue Youli smiled slightly, "Marriage is about mutual love. Even the Emperor has promised my brother that he won't force him to marry someone he doesn't like. Princess Luo'er, please don't waste your time on him."

Since Queen Mother Yin became the Queen Mother, she has only granted marriages to Chu Xinyue and Murong Nan.

She did not like Nanzhao, a small country that repeatedly invaded the borders of Jiuzhou, so it was naturally impossible for her to get married.

"Princess Luo'er, even though I'm the Queen Mother, I can't force General Xue to marry you. As I said, there are plenty of good men in Jiuzhou. If you look around more, you might find someone you like one day."

Lan Luo tried hard to fight for himself, but failed. He could only get up in disappointment and sit next to Lan Zheng.

When she saw Lan Zheng remained silent, the grievance in her heart instantly turned into anger.

She gritted her teeth and lowered her voice to ask, "Why don't you help me plead with the Queen Mother?"

Lan Zheng ignored her and continued to sit there motionless.

Chu Xinyue had been secretly observing the two Nanzhao princesses since they entered the hall.

She looked at Lan Zheng's expressionless face and nudged Xue Youli with her elbow. "Ali, her expression is so strange. Has the puppet Gu invaded her brain?"

Xue Youli also glanced at Lan Zheng and nodded slightly, "Yes."

Chu Xinyue thought of the smelly socks she had stuffed into her purse and brought into the palace, and said, "Should we take action now?"
