Inside the Yunji Palace, Yun Se, holding a scroll of secret decree, descended the ladder step by step, and stood steadily on the white marble floor tiles. She opened the secret decree bamboo slips and walked to the table.

She looked at the edict she had written, took out a small knife from the table, and scraped off the word "Xiu" on the bamboo slips that passed on the imperial edict to Yu Yunxiu.

Pass the throne to Yun_. Yun Se held the brush, his wrist suspended for a long time, but he only dripped a dot of ink on it, unable to make up his mind.

Let me ask, among her daughters, who is suitable to be the crown princess?

Yun Mu broke her leg and became a cripple. If she went to participate in the heaven sacrifice and climbed up the altar in the south of the city, those fools would laugh foolishly. Where would the royal majesty be?

Yun Zhi was young and timid, not good at either literature or martial arts. Gu Xiuzhi did not think he was good at his studies, and Wu Han did not think he was good at riding and shooting either. He was not suitable to be the successor.

After counting them all, there is still only one traitorous Yunxiu.

Yun Se looked at the empty Yunji Palace. She was truly all alone.

Yun Se suddenly remembered something and touched her lower abdomen.

If Yi Yuan could live up to her expectations and give birth to another daughter... she would definitely raise the child herself and train her to be the most perfect princess.

Just at this moment, Yun Se felt a feeling of nausea rising in her heart. She covered her lips and retched, her face showing a bit of confusion and surprise.

The Mother Goddess must have heard her wish and bestowed her blessing.

On this side, Yunxiu left the ancestral temple, got on a carriage and left the palace.

The system said coldly, "Host, you've done something terrible again. His Majesty has already wanted to depose the eldest son and enthronize the youngest. Unfortunately, His Majesty is pregnant with a son."

Yunxiu listened to the system's incoherent words and asked, "What? System, are you an ultrasound machine? Can you tell if the baby is a boy or a girl?"

[I know everything. I even know that she was conceived that night at the palace.]

"Okay, I get it. I didn't use any words, so why is Your Majesty deposing the eldest son and enthroning the youngest son?"

[Host, you've been so cynical too many times, and your words will eventually come true.]

Yunxiu put her hands behind her head and said to the system, "You're still blaming me? It's all because of your cheating cheat code. I just said with my spiritual power that Yunxiu would eventually become the Empress. Okay, mission accomplished, let's go to the next world."

The system sounded a mechanical prompt, [This is directly related to the mission, and the Word Spirit cannot be used.]

Yunxiu caught the metal ball and hit it on the head.

Remembering that there was something still in his sleeve, Yunxiu rummaged through his sleeve and took out the Lingguan paper that he had not given away. He could only ask Gu Zezhi to present it to His Majesty.

She was going to tell His Majesty that she had already prepared the betrothal gifts and that they did not need to be paid from the Ministry of Finance, but she forgot about it in a hurry.

Speaking of betrothal gifts, Yunxiu thought of Zhong Yi.

[Tongzi, help me see what Zhong Yi is doing now? ]

[Embroidering a wedding dress.]

Zhong Yi was seen holding a large piece of red silk, holding gold embroidery thread in her hands, with her head lowered, meticulously embroidering his wedding gown. On the wedding day, the groom would wear the wedding gown he had embroidered himself.

The sunlight outside the window cast light and shadow, reflecting on Zhong Yiruyu's face, and contrasting with the red silk. A breeze blew, and the red silk swayed slightly.

Zhong Yi's hands were light and skillful, fluttering on the silk like butterflies. The gold thread danced in his hands, forming a pattern.

At this time, a young man walked in and asked, "Brother, can you teach me how to embroider a wedding dress?"

Zhong Yi smiled slightly, "Come here."

"Thank you, big brother." Zhong Qi was a little confused and asked, "Big brother...is the eldest prince a good wife?"

"Well, she's a very good wife, and she'll be a good sister."

Yunxiu kept the system live and watched Zhong Yi embroider the wedding dress for a while. She couldn't hold him to sleep for several days because she missed him so much.

When Yunxiu returned to the mansion, the Zhong residence had already arrived. Yunxiu took out the betrothal gifts she had prepared long ago and had the guards carry them to the Zhong residence. Two days ago, she and Zhong Yi had compared their birth dates and horoscopes, and they were a perfect match.

The sky was clear and blue, and the air was bright. The guards, carrying the betrothal gifts, left the Grand Princess's residence and headed towards the Zhong Mansion. Along the way, there was music and dancing, and the atmosphere was bustling. Many people came to watch the fun and share in the joy.

The wedding date has been set for seven days later. At that time, she will wear red flowers and ride a white horse to meet Zhong Yi and take him home.

The people in the palace were all walking around in a cheerful mood, carrying red silk and red lanterns to decorate the Grand Princess's residence. Yunxiu finished taking care of some trivial matters and returned to the study.

Su Da knocked on the study door and said, "Your Highness, Lord Li has sent someone to take Deputy Steward Ren away, saying he's taking him to the Supreme Court for questioning."

Yunxiu frowned slightly and asked, "Which Lord Li?"

Su Dadao said, "Master Li, the Grand Secretary."

Yunxiu quickly put on her cloak and said, "Let's go to the Supreme Court now."

Yunxiu got off the carriage and saw the gate of the Imperial Court. Yunxiu took Su Da and Su Er with her and walked up the steps of the Imperial Court.

In the courtyard of the Supreme Court, two ancient trees stood tall and lush. She walked through the courtyard and came to the lobby.

Li Min was sitting behind the desk. When he saw Yunxiu, he stood up and hurriedly got up to greet her. He was obviously surprised by Yunxiu's visit.

Yunxiu smiled, bowed, and said, "Master Li."

Li Min, the Grand Secretary of Justice, bowed to her and asked, "Why are you here, Your Highness?"

Yun Xiu's face was cold. "Lord Li has detained my people, so why can't I come? What did Ren Li do wrong?"

Are you here to call me to task? Li Min replied, "I'm just asking a few questions as usual. If you can't explain the source of Ren Li's recent earnings, you'll be charged with corruption and all the money will be nationalized."

Yunxiu raised an eyebrow, "Master Li, are you planning to rob my house?"

"I dare not. I am just doing my job impartially."

Yunxiu felt as if her chest was blocked by a mouthful of cotton, making it hard to breathe. The Grand Secretary's anti-corruption campaign had backfired on her.

But Ren Li's money came from legitimate sources. She wasn't afraid of investigation.

Yunxiu sat down directly in the hall. "I will wait here for the result. A person of integrity has nothing to fear. Lord Li will definitely not wrongly accuse a good person."

Li Min responded, "I will enforce the law impartially. I still need to interrogate the suspect. Please excuse me."
