Steal my marriage? Turn around and marry the dude to take power

Wen Xingchen thought about it carefully and decided to go to the palace.

She first went to Kunning Palace to pay her respects to the Empress, and when she learned that Furun was in the Administrative Hall, she went to the Administrative Hall to look for him.

Fu Run was busy with the preparations for the Autumn Examination, so Wen Xingchen didn't disturb her. Instead, he waited until she was free to talk.

It was time for dinner by the time we waited.

Fu Run complained as soon as they met, "Xingchen, this princess who protects the country is really not a human being. I haven't had a full night's sleep in three days."

Wen Xingchen nodded in agreement.

She soothed her for a few moments, and when she saw that she had calmed down, she asked, "Why did you send Chen Jingting to quell the rebellion?"

Furun was also puzzled.

"I'm not going to run away from you, am I?"

Wen Xingchen asked, "You didn't send them?"

"No, he asked to go."

Wen Xingchen was stunned for a moment, then became discouraged.

"He asked for it himself, you won't refuse?"

Fu Run was the one in power, so how could he reject someone who took the initiative? Furthermore, Chen Jingting was skilled in martial arts, and the general's recommendation in the memorial couldn't be wrong.

"Are you two having a conflict? Is he avoiding you?"

Wen Xingchen shook his head.

"We didn't have any conflicts. It was my birthday, and it was almost over."

"That's strange. Logically, he shouldn't be going out now since the wedding is imminent, but I saw that he was eager to go out. I thought he was dissatisfied with this marriage and wanted to escape. What if he went out and got stabbed and disfigured? Then, wouldn't he be able to become the future Marquis of the County?"

"Pah, pah, pah, don't curse him, he will definitely come back safe and sound."

"Yes, yes," Fu Run asked quietly, a little curious, "What was it like when you two went boating alone last time? A man and a woman, didn't you do anything else? Or did you not let him do it, and he got angry?"

Wen Xingchen rolled his eyes at her.

"You locked Yang Ling up in the princess's mansion for seven days and seven nights. Does he now see you as a beast? Did you torture him that day? Seven days and seven nights? Did you drain him dry?"

Fu Run said, "Come on, he went out on business to make achievements, not because of you."

Wen Xingchen hesitated for a moment and said:

"That's not the case. The rumors about me have been a bit unfavorable lately. He might really be in a bad mood."

Wen Xingchen was so focused on his own happiness that he actually forgot about the Chen family.

Although he felt relieved after being disturbed by the Xi family, this matter still had an impact on his reputation.

"I wonder what the Chen family thinks of me?"

Furun looked at Wen Xingchen and always felt that she was putting too much thought into love affairs between men and women.

"You didn't get along well with Prince Jin, and now you're bothered by Chen Jingting. Is it worth it?"

"It's worth it as long as I'm happy."

"By then, Chen Jingting will be Xiao Sheng again."

Wen Xingchen shook his head.

"He won't."

"What if? You should be like me. Don't just stick with one man. Look around and choose more. Today you can pick a strong and powerful man, and tomorrow you can pick an elegant scholar. You will feel happy."

Wen Xingchen thought about how she hadn't gotten Yang Ling yet, so she said, "It's too tiring. One is good enough."

"What are you going to do?"

Wen Xingchen said, "The emperor has granted the marriage, and as long as this princess does not break off the engagement, the Chen family will not dare to act presumptuously."

Furun smiled.

"You understand the principle, so what are you doing now? Just wait at home."

There are some things that Wen Xingchen can't tell Furun.

She looked at Furun, who looked a little tired, and said, "Where's that kid Xiao Bo? You didn't order him around, and you exhausted yourself like this? Aren't you stupid?"

"Uncle Xiao has gone to the Ministry of Revenue. The Autumn Examination has begun, and he can't help."

"So you don't need him and are working yourself into a dog? Haha, Princess Protector of the Nation, don't underestimate him."

"..."

Wen Xingchen came out of the administrative hall and was about to leave the palace.

But before he reached the palace gate, he saw His Royal Highness the Prince of Jin. Wen Xingchen didn't want to see him, so he turned and took another route.

His Royal Highness the Prince of Jin saw it from afar, paused slightly, hesitated for a moment, and then went to the palace gate.

When Wen Xingchen walked to the palace gate, he saw Prince Jin again and frowned slightly.

Wen Xingchen turned around and went back.

Come accompany the Queen.

When King Jin saw her like this, he felt hurt, but he did not give up.

Finally I met her in the Imperial Garden.

Wen Xingchen had nowhere to escape, so she went to greet him and said, "Your Highness, Prince Jin."

Seeing Wen Xingchen's distant expression, Xiao Sheng felt somewhat depressed.

"Cousin is hiding from me?"

Wen Xingchen did not deny it.

"Your Highness the Prince of Jin, is there anything I can ask you?"

"Cousin, the Xi family is being rude. I have already scolded them. This will never happen again."

Wen Xingchen smiled.

"Your Highness, Prince Jin, are you referring to those things? I don't mind. What I do mind is that my things, even if they are used on others without causing any commotion, should not become objects of insult to me."

"Send her to Songshan Academy. At least she'll hear the students praise her for her kindness."

"....." Xiao Sheng was slapped in the face by these words, "Cousin is still blaming me?"

Wen Xingchen smiled.

"Your Highness, Prince Jin, I want to apologize to you."

"..."

"Now, I understand how annoying it was to bother Prince Jin back then."

"..."

"But even if it's annoying, after all, the Queen Consort Xi has also gained a lot of benefits because of me."

"The title of Imperial Concubine was given to me because of this princess...it's only natural that it should be removed now."

"..."

"So, Your Highness Prince Jin, there is no need to come to me. I will not interfere in the affairs of Concubine Xi."

Xiao Sheng's original intention was to find her to plead for his mother, but he forgot why his mother was conferred the title of noble concubine in the first place?

It’s because of the wishes made on the stars’ birthdays.

And the title of King of Jin was also Wen Xingchen's wish.

After that, Xiao Yue and Xiao Bo were also brought along.

Prince Jin had no time to recall the past. He explained, "My cousin misunderstood. I am definitely not pleading for my mother."

"Oh, it's not because of the Empress Xi? Then why did you block this princess?"

Prince Jin said, "I want to apologize to my cousin."

"Your Highness Prince Jin's apology is just a touch of upper lip to lower lip?"

"..."

King Jin: "What do you want, cousin?"

Wen Xingchen raised his head and said, "I remember that His Royal Highness the Prince of Jin invited me to go boating on the lake, but it rained that day, so His Royal Highness the Prince of Jin didn't go. I was caught in the rain all day and had a fever for a month..."

"The King of Japan did not invite you to go boating."

"So? You want to say that this princess deserves it?"

Wen Xingchen's mocking look deepened. Anyone with a discerning eye would know that His Royal Highness the Prince of Jin had no hope.

However, His Royal Highness Prince Jin did not know that he was still hoping that Wen Xingchen would change his mind.

"What if this prince is willing to marry you as his principal wife?"

"Hahaha, Xiao Sheng, ah Xiao Sheng, you really think you are so popular."

"You keep making trouble just for the position of Princess Jin."

"Xiao Sheng, you haven't forgotten how you got the throne of King Jin, right?"

"..."

"It's not that this princess looks down on you, but you, Xiao Sheng, the future Princess Jin, you really have no say in the matter."

"..."
