Mother, I have returned to the throne.

Got a wife for free?

What happened...

Walking out of the palace, Song Yuan still frowned.

Women will only affect the speed at which I draw my sword. Are you using this to test the cadres?

Having lived two lives, Song Yuan had no idea how much history he had read.

During the chaotic times, he was tragically killed by treacherous ministers.

I have just started my career, and I must not learn from those incompetent rulers!

However, then I thought about it.

Getting married is not necessarily a bad thing.

No matter what, he is the legitimate prince.

It just so happens that I'm going to the border and need a lot of resources, so I must take this opportunity to make a fortune.

The prince is getting married, why don't your families come and express their gratitude?

This is not to save face for myself, but to save face for His Majesty.

You are a first-rank official in the court, and you only give a gift of five taels of silver. Aren't you afraid of being laughed at by others?

If it can really be done in a big way, even my cheap dad will pay attention to it.

Wouldn’t that money be coming in like a flood?

As the saying goes, making friends in the world requires gold, and without enough gold, the friendship will not be deep.

If this is the case with friends, what about winning over subordinates?

However, this is an opportunity.

There are also certain risks involved.

During this period before the marriage, I must stay in the imperial city!

Given the Third Prince's and the Queen's eccentric personalities, could they let me go?

You must plan ahead and make arrangements in advance.

Otherwise, just sitting there and waiting for death will only lead to the end of your life!

While Song Yuan was secretly thinking, a voice suddenly came from behind him.

"Your Highness, please wait for me."

Turning around, he couldn't help but frown.

Isn’t this Eunuch Qiu?

Eunuch Qiu Baojun entered the palace at the age of thirteen and followed his adoptive father for many years.

Even the third prince must be treated with courtesy.

What is this guy looking for me for?

For a moment, Song Yuan was moved.

If we can subdue Eunuch Qiu, the Third Prince will be nothing!

But no matter how much he thought about it, given his current appearance, it was already a rare opportunity for him to talk to Eunuch Qiu.

Song Yuan collected his thoughts and asked, "Eunuch Qiu, do you have any instructions?"

"Your Highness, have you forgotten that you are now the son-in-law of the Situ family? His Majesty instructed me to take you to see the Situ girl who was granted marriage, so that His Majesty can get to know her. In addition, His Majesty knows that you have no mansion, so he will grant you one as a wedding house," Eunuch Qiu responded.

Song Yuan was slightly stunned. He needed the official residence, but this Miss Situ?

Who is this?

His predecessor had been a hostage since childhood in the imperial city, and he couldn't even recognize all the six ministers.

How can I guess the identity when I suddenly hear the name?

"Eunuch Qiu, please explain to me who this Miss Situ is."

"Your Highness, you are joking. You are probably the only one in the imperial city who doesn't know the Situ family." Eunuch Qiu laughed out loud and patiently explained the identity of this Miss Situ.

The word "Situ" is indeed famous.

But this fame was built with blood!

Thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, thousands of miles of borders.

Who is guarding?

At least in the north, the word Situ is the most appropriate!

This golden signboard was created by three generations and more than a dozen lives.

For more than ten years, the Situ family has been guarding the border, and none of them, whether it is the old prince or the descendants, are cowards.

All heroes died on the battlefield.

Keep the ferocious barbarian army out of the country.

The Marquis of Zhenbei who was killed by the barbarian army was the only remaining male in the Situ family!

The Prince of Zhenbei's Mansion refused to give up an inch of this frontier land and killed all the male members of the family.

And this Miss Situ can be said to be the only descendant of the Situ family!

"Your Highness, after you marry Miss Situ, you will be considered a member of the Situ family. This way, you will have someone to back you up. At least in the short term, you won't have to worry about any retaliation."

As a favorite of the emperor, why would Eunuch Qiu have any concerns?

At this moment, in front of Song Yuan, he analyzed it directly.

Song Yuan frowned, and in his heart he particularly agreed with what Eunuch Qiu said. In this imperial city, apart from those powerful people, who else could compete with the third prince?

The military is definitely one of them!

The Zhenbei King's family is full of loyal and brave people, and they have a special reputation in the military. Entering his family is equivalent to being protected by honor.

You dare to hit me?

You are insulting King Zhenbei!

When things get out of hand and the military shows off their power, it’s no joke!

But honestly, it's no wonder that the entire Zhenbei King family died tragically. Judging from the attitude of his cheap father, he simply didn't like this family!

Who in the entire imperial city doesn’t know about this?

I am basically a pit of fire.

In addition to the incident caused by his third brother in Yihonglou, in which he deliberately spread false information, he is now famous throughout the imperial city.

Now I am just a loser who is uneducated, likes to listen to music in brothels, and is a hopeless person.

Whoever gets contaminated by it is like being stuck with a piece of shit.

That cheap dad wants the granddaughter of King Zhenbei to marry him. Isn't this pushing her into the fire pit?

……

In the Zhenbei Palace.

Situ Jing was arranging flowers and willows, moving among the flowers.

The light yellow palace robe she wore was exactly in line with the lyrics.

Light yellow long skirt, fluffy hair...

Beside the flowers, several women gathered together, drinking tea and gossiping.

Situ Jing's biological mother, seeing her daughter finally coming out of the haze, also showed a smile on her face.

"Xiao Jing has recovered well in the past two days. At least, I can see her smile now."

"Her father died tragically, and this child hasn't gone out for several days. I was scared before, but now she's willing to go out for a walk, I'm satisfied."

After Situ Lan married into the Situ family, she took the surname of the Zhenbei Palace.

As the orphan of General Situ who died on the frontier, she was the one who felt the most pain. But even so, this weak woman still gritted her teeth and did not show any sadness.

After all, the Situ family still has a granddaughter.

Situ Jing can be said to be the only hope of Zhenbei Palace!

Looking at her sisters at home, Situ Lan analyzed: "Xiao Jing will recover for a few more days. The time is almost right. I will go to His Majesty to ask for marriage!"

"Let His Majesty find a pillar of support to marry into our Situ family. This way, our Zhenbei Palace will have a chance to continue!"

The other female members heard this and nodded repeatedly.

However, they didn't expect that the bad news came just after they finished talking.

"Madam, Eunuch Qiu is coming down with the prince, and is waiting outside. What should we do?"

Situ Lan was slightly stunned. There is an eldest prince in the court?

I have been married into the Situ family for so many years, how come I have never heard of this?

In the past, I only heard that the second prince was the crown prince designated by the late emperor. Logically, if the eldest prince was still alive, why would the position of crown prince fall to the second prince?

"Is it the ridiculous and incompetent crown prince who went to a brothel as soon as he came back after being a hostage for decades?" Just as Situ Lan was surprised, Situ Jing slowly spoke among the flowers.

"Shut up!" Situ Lan, as a mother, quickly scolded.

After all, he is a member of the royal family. No matter how bad he is, how can he talk about it like this?

However, while walking towards the front yard, Situ Lan still stuck close to his daughter and asked about the eldest prince.

When she heard all the rumors, even she couldn't help but frown.

Being so ridiculous, cowardly and incompetent, is he still a man?

"Mrs. Situ, congratulations!"

In the front yard.

Eunuch Qiu was quite knowledgeable about etiquette, and when he saw Situ Lan, he hurriedly bowed.

These words confused Situ Lan. Someone just died in my family, how could there be any happy event?

This eunuch is here to disgust my Situ family?

"Father-in-law, there are some things you can't say casually!" Situ Lan reminded.

Eunuch Qiu knew there was a misunderstanding in his words and hurriedly explained, "Madam Situ, don't overthink it. It seems that the news hasn't reached you yet. The reason I said congratulations is because at the morning court, His Majesty arranged an engagement for the young lady of your Situ family!"

Situ Lan was still thinking about this matter, but His Majesty had foresight.

This arrangement was naturally what she wanted.

"Who is it?" Situ Lan asked anxiously.

Eunuch Qiu replied, "Madam Situ, isn't that the eldest prince standing beside me?"

hum...

The eldest prince?

A dandy exhibitionist and a coward?

Thinking of what his daughter had said before, Situ Lan was stunned. He stood there in a daze for a long time.

In the end, I couldn't catch my breath.

His already weak body fell backwards.

"Madam, madam, what's wrong with you?"

"mother……"

The entire Zhenbei Palace was suddenly in chaos.

Faced with this scene, Song Yuan touched his nose innocently.

Am I that famous?

As for fainting from excitement?
