The atmosphere in the spacious and magnificent hall was solemn. The ministers looked at each other with expressions of disbelief on their faces.

The king of Tianqi Kingdom actually planned to marry his own daughter to Yunyan!

As everyone knows, in recent years, in order to expand its territory, the Tianqi Kingdom has continuously sent troops to invade the border areas of Yunyan, attempting to forcibly bring several border towns of Yunyan under its rule.

This blatant provocation has led to increasing tensions between the two countries.

Against this background, it is really puzzling that Tianqi Kingdom suddenly proposed to marry the princess to Yunyan.

Are they really willing to put aside their previous disputes and ease the situation through marriage?

impossible!

Everyone thought to themselves that the only reasonable explanation was that there must be some ulterior conspiracy hidden in it.

However, how could Emperor Xuanyuan, who was sitting on the dragon throne, not see this?

However, if he rejected the proposal of Tianqi Kingdom on the spot, it would undoubtedly be a severe blow to Tianqi Kingdom in front of many ministers and foreign envoys.

Jun Mohan, the fifth prince of Tianqi Kingdom, stated the various benefits of the marriage and claimed that this move was entirely out of consideration for easing the border tension between the two countries.

These words were so flawless that Emperor Xuanyuan found it difficult to find a suitable reason to refuse them.

What's more, even if they knew that Tianqi Country had other plans, with the strength and majesty of Yunyan Country, how could they be afraid of the arrival of a mere woman?

Thinking of this, Emperor Xuanyuan frowned slightly, and after a moment of contemplation, he said: "It is indeed as the Fifth Prince said, the relationship between Tianqi Kingdom and Yunyan has been quite tense in recent years, especially the people living in the border areas have suffered greatly.

If this marriage can effectively alleviate the pressure on both sides and bring peace and happiness to the people living along the border, then it would be a good thing."

Having said that, Emperor Xuanyuan slowly turned his sharp and deep gaze to the seventh princess Junyi.

He smiled and asked gently, "Seventh Princess, which man from our Yunyan Kingdom have you chosen? Tell me, and I will definitely arrange a marriage for you two."

At this time, the seventh princess Junyi turned her gaze to Yun Chenyu who was sitting upright beside her.

Originally, the Seventh Princess regarded this marriage as a political task that had to be completed.

However, from the moment she saw Yun Chenyu with her own eyes, everything seemed to have changed subtly.

Yun Chenyu sat upright, his posture as straight as a pine tree, and his majestic aura was so overwhelming that people dared not look directly at him.

The noble aura he exuded was no less than that of the legendary Hua Manlou; it was something he was born with. Especially his cold and piercing eyes, which gleamed with a chilling light like a cold star, sending shivers down one's spine.

But what was unexpected was that when this cold man looked at the woman next to him, his eyes were instantly filled with endless tenderness and affection, like a spring breeze that warmed people's hearts.

This chivalrous and kind-hearted man is exactly the ideal husband that the seventh princess Junyi has always dreamed of.

Thinking of this, the seventh princess Junyi's heart beat faster and her cheeks flushed.

She took a deep breath, then resolutely raised her right hand, pointed it directly at Yun Chenyu, and said loudly: "I've chosen him!"

The sound was clear and loud, echoing throughout the hall.

Hearing these words, Emperor Xuanyuan was slightly stunned.

He was secretly puzzled: What was going on? Why were all the women so enamored with his precious son, Yun Chenyu? Was it really because Yun Chenyu was so exceptional that he attracted so many women's admiration?

Ever since the incident with Princess Fuso, Emperor Xuanyuan felt both love and fear for his son.

He knew Yun Chenyu was stubborn and very persistent in matters of the heart. Ever since he fell in love with Shen Li, he could no longer tolerate other women entering his heart.

Therefore, even if Emperor Xuanyuan wanted to arrange more wives and concubines for Yunchenyu, he would not dare to act rashly at this moment.

On the other hand, when Shen Li learned that the princess of Tianqi Kingdom actually wanted to marry Yun Chenyu, he couldn't help but widen his eyes, his face full of disbelief.

Didn't the princess know Yun Chenyu was already married? How could she be so disregarding of status and etiquette, willing to come and compete for someone else's husband? Could it be that she was even thinking of becoming Yun Chenyu's concubine?

Thinking of this, Shen Li couldn't help but frown.

Humph, even being a concubine is absolutely not possible!

She was an independent woman from the new era who had always believed in monogamy. If Yun Chenyu really dared to consider taking a concubine, she would definitely leave him without hesitation and would never serve a husband with another woman.

At this moment, Shen Li leaned forward slightly, gently touched Yun Chenyu's strong arm, raised a slightly playful smile at the corner of his mouth, and teased: "Your Highness, you are so lucky!"

Upon hearing this, Yun Chenyu turned to look at the beauty beside him and smiled gently, "This is such a blessing that I cannot afford."

Then, his originally gentle face instantly became stern, and his eyes flashed with a cold light. He said coldly: "I already have a princess. Princess Seven, please find another suitable husband."

However, the Seventh Princess was not about to give up. She retorted with a coquettish voice, "So what if I have a princess? Does having a princess mean I am no longer qualified to marry you?"

Emperor Xuanyuan was slightly stunned when he heard this, and asked in disbelief, "Princess Junyi, are you willing to marry into Prince Chen's palace and become a concubine?"

As soon as these words were spoken, it was like a stone that caused a thousand ripples. Everyone present was shocked. No one could believe that a princess of a dignified country would be willing to give up her status and become someone's concubine!

At this time, Prince Yun Tingye, who was sitting beside him, heard that the Princess of Tianqi wanted to marry Prince Chen. He couldn't help but feel secretly happy, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise up, almost smiling crookedly.

After all, who in this entire hall doesn't know what Jun Mohan is planning?

His purpose is nothing more than to place a spy next to Prince Chen.

If he could use the powerful force of the Apocalypse Kingdom to destroy the Yunchen Domain in one fell swoop, it would naturally be the best thing for Yun Tingye.

Even the King of Qi and the King of Zhao were grinning from ear to ear. After all, Yunchenyu was their mortal enemy.

Then, Yun Tingye said with a hint of joking, "Father, the princess of Tianqi Kingdom can be regarded as a true golden branch and jade leaf. I don't think she will willingly condescend to be a concubine."

After saying that, he looked at Jun Mohan meaningfully.

Seeing this, Jun Mohan quickly nodded and said, "Your Highness, the Crown Prince is absolutely right. My little sister has been spoiled since she was little. She has always been cherished by our father, the Emperor, and the Empress. We simply cannot accept her becoming someone else's concubine."

However, Emperor Xuanyuan frowned slightly and said slowly: "But... this Prince Chen now has a wife..."

At this moment, Junyi raised her slender hand and pointed directly at Shen Li, with a bright and slightly provocative smile on her face.

Then she opened her red lips and said, "Your Majesty, this princess is willing to have a fair and just contest with her!"
