After tearing up the script of the vicious female supporting role, I cleaned up the Xiangfu every da

At that time, Pei Zhanzhou and Jiang Wansang were sitting by the pond in the imperial garden. They grabbed a handful of fish food that they had found from somewhere and fed the fish leisurely.

Neither of them spoke, and there was no expression on their faces, but one could clearly feel the relaxed and comfortable atmosphere around them.

Just then, a young eunuch came quickly with his head down, and whispered something in Zhou Zhi's ear.

Zhou Zhi's face changed, he raised his hand to send the young eunuch away, and then came to Pei Zhanzhou.

With his previous experience, he didn't say it in Pei Zhaozhou's ear, but stood there and reported: "Master, the emperor has drafted an imperial decree to grant you a marriage with the third princess of Beisheng."

In just a moment, the cozy atmosphere disappeared and turned into a sharp low pressure.

Jiang Wansang, who was lying on the railing teasing the fish, also stood up and asked with a frown, "What's going on?"

Even in the book, the emperor never granted marriage to Shen Qiuyun and Su Huanyu. He was even trying to take action against Shen Qiuyun just now. Why is he suddenly granting marriage to Pei Zhanzhou now?

This wasn't a question from his master, but Zhou Zhi answered without hesitation, "Our spies said the Emperor looked a little disheveled when he left the Third Princess' place. After returning, he changed his clothes and wrote the imperial decree granting the marriage. He's already brought it to the banquet, perhaps intending to take advantage of today's opportunity to announce it publicly."

The birthday banquet lasted until the evening. The emperor wrote the imperial edict and took it directly over. It was obvious that he did not intend to ask Pei Zhanzhou's opinion and directly granted the marriage.

Jiang Wansang subconsciously looked at Pei Zhanzhou. Although the latter's expression did not change at all, one could clearly feel the low pressure around him.

Everyone said that the emperor trusted and relied on Master Pei, and would seek his advice on almost all matters, big or small, in the court. Even as the emperor, he still showed him respect.

But if he really respected Pei Zhanzhou, how could he make such hasty decisions about his marriage without the other party knowing about it?

Suddenly, Jiang Wansang felt a strange feeling in his heart.

The book only mentions the relationship between the emperor and Pei Zhanzhou in one sentence: "The person the emperor relies on most in the court is Master Pei", but she always feels that things are not that simple.

The emperor showed respect to Pei Zhanzhou on the surface, but arranged his marriage at will without showing any respect to him.

Pei Zhanzhou appears to be loyal to the emperor, but actually hates the entire Nansu royal family.

These two people must have some unknown secrets.

Pei Zhanzhou lowered his eyes slightly, raised his hand and threw all the fish food into the pond, then took out a handkerchief, wiped his hands slowly, and threw the handkerchief in as well.

Looking at the ripples on the water caused by the fish fighting for food, there was a cold and dead silence in those deep eyes.

Did he really think that he was completely under his control and dared to arrange his affairs at will?

But the person he arranged was from the Beisheng royal family!

Looking at his cold eyes, Jiang Wansang's heart skipped a beat.

The moment Pei Zhanzhou stood up, she subconsciously grabbed his hand and asked, "What do you want to do?"

Pei Zhanzhou looked at her hand, his gaze slowly moving upwards, and then fell on the face that was filled with nervous curiosity and a hint of worry.

The cold and hard atmosphere around him dissipated a little. Pei Zhanzhou's eyebrows twitched slightly and asked, "What do you think this national teacher will do?"

Jiang Wansang was speechless.

She is not a worm in his stomach, how can she know what he will do!

But judging from the way he looked just now, he would definitely not agree to this marriage easily.

"Although I don't know what grudge you have with the Nansu royal family, I guess now is definitely not the time to tear your relationship apart." Jiang Wansang thought, "If it's not convenient for you to come forward to resolve the matter of the arranged marriage, why not leave it to me?"

Pei Zhanzhou is her biggest backer now. She doesn't want her backer to be seriously damaged by the marginal character of the emperor before the halo of the male and female protagonists is broken.

Looking at her eager expression, the depression that had been lingering in Pei Zhanzhou's heart seemed to dissipate in an instant.

He knew that Jiang Wansang was very smart and must have guessed from his previous reaction that something was wrong between him and the emperor, but he didn't expect her to take the initiative to offer to help him solve the problem.

Even though they had known each other for so long, this woman wasn't the type to bring trouble upon herself.

Pei Zhanzhou suddenly relaxed, as if he had completely forgotten the gloom that had risen in his heart when he heard that the emperor wanted to take charge of his life.

He looked at Jiang Wansang with interest, "You don't want the Third Princess of Beisheng to marry this country's teacher?"

Jiang Wansang: "...Don't you want to marry her?"

When he heard that the emperor had drafted such an imperial edict, his reaction was as if he wanted to rush out and tear up the edict.

Pei Zhanzhou continued to ask: "Then do you hope that this national teacher will marry her?"

Jiang Wansang felt that his question was a bit strange.

What does it have to do with her whether he gets married or not?

Jiang Wansang didn't say this out loud, because she had a feeling that it would definitely be bad news if she said it.

Jiang Wansang quickly flattered him, "I'm attracted to the Imperial Preceptor, so of course I don't want you to marry her!"

At this point, she gritted her teeth and looked furious, "We agreed on a fair competition, but a princess like you actually has no moral principles and is playing dirty!"

From the time the emperor took action against Shen Qiuyun to the time he drafted the imperial edict, it took less than two hours. One can guess what Shen Qiuyun did with just a little bit of guessing.

Suddenly, Jiang Wansang had a flash of inspiration and looked up at Pei Zhanzhou. "Master Imperial Master, could you tell me about the specific situation of the Third Princess of Beisheng?"

Given Pei Zhanzhou's vigilance, he must have sent people to secretly investigate her when he learned that Beisheng Congress would send Shen Qiuyun to form an alliance.

The person who tied the bell must untie it. Since Shen Qiuyun was the one who instigated the arranged marriage, the solution should also be hers.

Pei Zhanzhou pursed his lips slightly, and there was no trace of the coldness from before in his dark eyes.

"Okay."

He didn't seem to be in any hurry about his marriage being arranged soon. He turned sideways and sat down next to Jiang Wansang, looking as if he wanted to have a good talk with her.

Zhou Zhi, who was standing next to them, stared at their hands, which had not been released since they had pulled each other together. He opened his mouth, but in the end, no words came out.

Isn't the most urgent task now to stop the emperor from issuing the imperial edict?

Also, if you want to talk, just talk. Why do you have to hold hands?

He's such a grown man, can't he see anything standing here?

Is he redundant?

He should just go watch from the side...

Neither of them noticed the roar hidden under Zhou Zhi's serious and cold face, and started talking seriously about Shen Qiuyun.
