After traveling through time, I was spotted by the new emperor

Princess Renshou was well prepared and took out the marriage certificate.

Qi Wushuang gestured to Xiao Dengzi to take the marriage certificate.

The marriage certificate indeed stated that Miss Qi and Mr. Shui were engaged.

Qi Wushuang specifically looked at the engagement date, which was a month ago.

It seems that General Qi had already anticipated that Princess Yunshang wanted to ask Miss Qi to marry Mu Yiyang, so he made arrangements in advance.

Although he knew that the date on the marriage certificate was fake, Qi Wushuang did not want to expose it.

It is understandable that an elder would not want his close younger generation to marry into a desolate and barren place like Nanling and suffer. It is better than sacrificing the women of the clan for the benefit of the family.

Qi Wushuang handed the marriage certificate to Princess Yunshang: "Princess, there is indeed a marriage certificate."

Princess Yunshang took the marriage certificate and read it: "Why have I never heard of their engagement?"

Princess Renshou:

"Originally, we planned to wait until after His Majesty's coronation ceremony before announcing it publicly, so that we could also benefit from His Majesty's blessings."

Ye Wuwei looked at Princess Renshou. No wonder she was able to please Concubine Yu back then. Princess Yunshang was far inferior to her in terms of her ability to speak "sweet words".

"Then why do you carry the marriage certificate with you?"

"I originally wanted to discuss the marriage between our two families with the Grand Marshal today, so I brought the marriage certificate with me. Is there a problem?"

Princess Yunshang couldn't find any fault with her, but Miss Qi was her most preferred candidate for daughter-in-law. What was the point of replacing her with a girl from a branch of the Qi family?

General Qi would never help Mu Yiyang just for a girl from a side branch.

Princess Yunshang was unwilling to give in and looked at Qi Wushuang: "Your Majesty, please make the decision."

"Princess, Miss Qi is already engaged. I can't ruin someone's marriage. Why don't we just do as Commandant Qi says..."

Princess Yunshang interrupted Qi Wushuang before he finished speaking:

"Since Miss Qi is engaged, I'll put my son's marriage aside for now and discuss my daughter's marriage first.

Back then, your mother owed me, and now, the Chu family is going to pay off this debt for her.

My daughter will marry the Prince of Chu and become his consort."

After Princess Yunshang finished speaking, everyone turned their attention to Chu Fuchi.

Chu Fuchi was not very surprised.

He has never married, so it is normal for him to be targeted.

The head of the Shui family also looked at Chu Fuchi.

He didn't necessarily have to give Miss Shui to Qi Wushuang. Chu Fuchi or Qi Yushen would also do.

Qi Wushuang looked at Chu Fuchi and signaled him to solve it himself.

Chu Fuchi thought about it in his heart:

Mu Yiyang's marriage with the Qi family failed, so he should choose from the other three major families next.

Chu Yuyan is the only unengaged girl in the Chu family, but considering her father's love for Chu Yuyan, he will definitely not marry her to Nanling.

Qi Wushuang would never go against his father's wishes.

Then there are only the Zhuang and Yuwen families.

The Zhuang family's power was mainly in Ledu in the east, which was far away from the Nanling Mountains in the south. It was not as convenient as Fengdu in the southeast where the Yuwen family was located to support the Nanling Mountains.

Therefore, Mu Yiyang is most likely to choose to marry into the Yuwen family.

And Master Yuwen was the most ambitious person. He would not miss the opportunity to form an alliance with Nanling just to marry a girl from his clan to Nanling.

If you want to break the solid alliance between them, you can start with the other children of Muyi Tusi.

Then Mu Yimei and Mu Yili are both options.

Chu Fuchi looked at Mu Yimei and Mu Yili respectively. Although Mu Yimei was not beautiful, her words and deeds showed that she was trained according to the standards of a noble family's wife, and she was worthy of the position of the Chu family's wife.

Who is not to be married to?

Since Princess Yunshang is here, it would be better to accept the marriage to ease the crisis in Nanling.

Moreover, the marriage should be done quickly so that it would be more natural to get along with Mu Yimei in the future.

Thinking of this, Chu Fuchi said: "I am willing to marry Mu Yimei as the prince's consort."

After Chu Fuchi said this, everyone in the palace was stunned, including Princess Yunshang.

Although Princess Yunshang was determined to marry her daughter to Chu Fuchi, she thought Chu Fuchi would refuse.

I didn’t expect Chu Fuchi to agree so easily.

Chu Fuchi continued, "But my father is far away in Yingdu, and the etiquette process will take time."

Princess Yunshang immediately took over the conversation: "Have His Majesty issue an imperial decree granting the marriage, and have the Ministry of Rites prepare the ceremony."

Ye Wuwei thought to himself: Princess Yunshang must be so anxious, she can't wait for the two of them to get married right away!

But Ye Wuwei didn't say anything.

Chu Fuchi has been managing government for Qi Wushuang for many years and has his own assessment of interests and gains and losses. Since he was not forced to agree, he must have his reasons.

Furthermore, Ye Wuwei looked at Mu Yimei. Apart from her ordinary appearance, she had a very good demeanor.

For example, now, Mu Yimei sat steadily, his expression unchanged, and he was not surprised by honor or disgrace.

This alone is far beyond many people.

Ye Wuwei glanced at Princess Qionghua, Mu Yili and Miss Shui again. The three of them were a little inferior to Mu Yimei, and their faces had more or less some other expressions.

Either contempt, disdain, or surprise.

Qi Wushuang spoke at this time: "Fu Chi, marriage is not a joke, do you want to reconsider it?"

Chu Fuchi bowed to Qi Wushuang:

"Your Majesty, I think Miss Mu Yi is very good. I would like to marry her as the Crown Prince's consort. Please issue an order to grant the marriage."

Qi Wushuang looked at Ye Wuwei unconsciously, wanting to see what Ye Wuwei's attitude was.

Ye Wuwei said to Qi Wushuang, "You decide," and started eating the honeydew melon on the table.

Qi Wushuang looked at Chu Fuchi again, and Chu Fuchi expressed his willingness to Qi Wushuang.

Qi Wushuang thought about it and decided to make a final effort.

Qi Wushuang asked Mu Yimei: "Miss Mu, what do you mean?"

Mu Yimei stood up and saluted Qi Wushuang:

"Since ancient times, marriage has been decided by parents. Before we left, my father gave my mother full authority over my marriage, and I will listen to her."

In fact, Tusi Muyi wanted to marry Mu Yimei into a local big family in Nanling, but was forcibly suppressed by Princess Yunshang.

Mu Yimei knew her mother's thoughts very well:

He didn't want her and her children to stay in a barren and desolate place like Nanling, otherwise he wouldn't have been so strict with her since she was young and raised her according to the standards of a lady from a noble family.

Before arriving in Chamdo, Mu Yimei could not empathize with Princess Yunshang's feelings.

But after arriving in Chamdo and seeing its prosperity, Mu Yimei understood.

Furthermore, Chu Fuchi was a handsome man, the prince of a county, the chief minister of the court, and the cousin of the emperor. If it were not for her mother, she would not have been able to marry him of such a noble status.

In that case, why should she be dissatisfied?

After hearing what Mu Yimei said, Qi Wushuang had no reason to refuse.

At this time, Princess Yunshang spoke again: "Your Majesty, this is what your mother owes me."

Originally, Ye Wuwei didn't want to interfere in other people's marriages, but when he heard Princess Yunshang repeatedly forcing Qi Wushuang, he felt unhappy.

Ye Wuwei put down the uneaten melon in his hand and spoke slowly.
