Reborn, meet you again!

When Su Jinyue saw that Helian Qi had changed his humble and polite attitude and his words showed a bit of sharpness, she couldn't help feeling a little flustered and guilty.

But now that the words have been spoken, there is no taking them back.

She could only bite the bullet and continue.

"What are you talking about, Prince? My Tianqi ladies always keep their marriages secret until they are finalized. It's normal that the prince hasn't heard of it. It doesn't mean it doesn't exist."

"The girl surnamed Jiang that the Crown Prince mentioned was simply one who didn't have to follow so many rules because she came from a merchant family and was divorced... She had a bit of a love affair with the Regent, and that was just the right thing for the Crown Prince to know about."

After the coming-of-age ceremony at the Ningyuan Marquis' Mansion, Jun Jiuchen imprisoned Jiahe despite her objections.

Her father also kept telling her that Jun Jiuchen was ambitious and never took the Su family seriously.

Even...Su Ziyao's death was related to him.

My father also said that he even dared to kill the Su family's legitimate son, so how could he guarantee that he would not dare to touch Ye'er in the future!

Although Su Jinyue did not completely agree with her father's words, after all, she could see that the Regent was wholeheartedly paving the way for Ye'er.

General Huodu and Imperial Tutor Shangguan, one a civil official and the other a military officer, were also very dedicated in teaching Ye'er. She could even clearly feel the changes in her son day by day over the past few months.

Therefore, Jun Jiuchen did not regard Ye'er as a puppet.

Besides, if he really had that ambition, why did he have to help Ye'er take the position first?

Although she was not considered smart, she had been in the palace for so many years that she still understood some of these basic principles.

Her father must have been holding a grudge against Su Ziyao for his death, so he wanted to use her to avenge him.

But who was Su Ziyao? He had been a scoundrel since he was little, and had bullied the three of them, mother and daughter, quite a bit.

If he died, she would have wanted to applaud, so how could she have offended the Regent because of him?

But then, she suddenly realized a problem...

Jun Jiuchen is not that easy to control. If you want him to follow Ye'er wholeheartedly, the position of Regent is far from enough.

It was at that time that her mother suddenly came to the palace looking for her, saying that Ling'er seemed to be interested in the Regent.

She thought of Ling'er's face, which was similar to hers but younger and more beautiful than hers, and immediately had her own plan.

If Jun Jiuchen marries Ling'er, they will be a real family. Ling'er can marry someone of her heart, and Ye'er's position will be more secure. Isn't it the best of both worlds?

So, he asked his mother to tell Ling'er that the Regent also had a good impression of her and that he would make the decision on her behalf and make the marriage happen...

After all, she believed that this marriage would be beneficial to Jun Jiuchen, and even if she acted without consulting him, he would definitely not refuse this marriage.

Thinking of this, Su Jinyue's heart gradually calmed down, and her tone also showed some confidence and determination.

"Since the Crown Prince is well-versed in the customs of Tianqi, he should also know that for someone like the Regent, having three wives and four concubines is commonplace. How can you conclude that I am fabricating this and giving you a perfunctory explanation based solely on Miss Jiang?"

But just as he finished speaking, the old man who had been sitting at the table with the Mobei envoys looked at Helian Qi, then stood up again and spoke indignantly.

"Prince, I just said that the Queen Mother clearly despises Mobei and is unwilling to marry the Second Miss of the Su Family. That's why she has been refusing in every possible way. Prince, do you finally believe it now?"

"What do you mean by discussing marriage with the Prince Regent? Why didn't you mention it earlier or later, but only when you proposed? Isn't that obvious enough?"

Then, a gleam of light flashed across his wrinkled eyes, and he looked fixedly at where Su Jinyue was.

"But my Mobei 100,000 cavalrymen are no pushovers. There's a saying in Tianqi: A warrior can be killed, but not humiliated. If the Queen Mother insists on humiliating our Crown Prince today, I'm afraid the betrothal gift... will have to be replaced with a ladder!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere in the hall became increasingly tense.

Although the ministers in the court were far away in Shangjing, they had heard about the ferocity of the Mobei cavalry.

The civil unrest in Tianqi has just been quelled, and the young emperor is still young. If the people of Mobei really make a comeback, I'm afraid... it will be difficult to deal with.

Thinking of this, the Minister of Personnel Wei Zhixing couldn't help but step forward.

"Empress Dowager, since Miss Su and the Prince Regent are only 'discussing marriage', it means they haven't finalized the marriage yet."

"Since Crown Prince Helian has a special affection for Second Miss Su, why don't you, Queen Mother, grant the Crown Prince's wish?"

"As the saying goes, the people are most important, the country is second, and the emperor is least important. Miss Su is a close relative of the Queen Mother. If we can use the policy of marriage to quell the war and establish friendship between the two countries, wouldn't it be a blessing for the world and the people?"

Although King Huai had instructed them to just watch from the sidelines and not to upset the Queen Mother because of this matter, the current situation was different.

If Jun Jiuchen really gets engaged to Su Ling'er, then they will be completely tied together, and King Huai will no longer have any chance to take advantage of them.

As a branch of the Wei family, although he relied on the red book and iron certificate to avoid being implicated by Queen Wei, Jun Jiuchen still took advantage of Queen Wei's mistakes to cause serious damage to the Wei family.

Their Wei family had long since fallen out with Jun Jiuchen, and he absolutely could not watch Jun Jiuchen sitting comfortably in this position.

As for the Queen Mother...

After this incident, he could still get away with it by saying that he was speaking out for Tianqi's safety.

When Minister Wei suddenly stood up, many civil officials soon echoed him and asked Su Jinyue to put the overall situation first.

Xing Tianming looked at this situation, his eyes moved slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he held himself back and did not make a sound. He just knelt down with everyone else.

Su Jinyue saw that the ministers who had been silent just now suddenly changed their attitude. Instead of speaking for her, they spoke for the people of Mobei. She couldn't help but get angry. She stood up suddenly, and the pearl curtain on the phoenix crown shook violently, making a crisp sound of collision.

But she moved her lips and looked at the little emperor on the throne, whose face had already turned pale.

In the end, he didn't say a word, he just felt bitter in his heart.

Is there really no other choice?

One is her own sister, and the other is her son’s country and people. How can she choose?

At the same time, she felt a hint of dissatisfaction in her heart.

When the Mobei delegation came to Beijing, the regent should have personally responded. Only he, who had defeated the Mobei people before, could suppress the arrogance of the Mobei people.

These are also his duties as the regent. Since he chose Ye'er, he should have thought about these.

But at this moment, he abandoned them and their son and left the capital without permission...

Otherwise, she wouldn't have been forced into this situation.
