Demoted from wife to concubine? Reborn, the mistress of a noble family plots another high-status mar

Chapter 820

"I already have a fiancée, so there's no need for you all to worry about me."

Pei Heng didn't press the matter further, but he was still unwilling to give up.

He secretly sought help from someone.

The next day, Cui Yan entered the palace.

......

"Cui Yan wants to marry Pei Fang?"

When the news reached Jiaofang Palace, Yunxi Yue was astonished.

"Has he gone mad?"

As the heir of the prestigious Cui family, he has a bright future ahead of him.

He actually wants to marry a concubine who was abandoned in the cold palace?

It couldn't possibly be because of liking someone; there must be some unspeakable secret involved!

"I heard that Pei Heng secretly contacted him, and I don't know what kind of deal they made, but Cui Yan went to the palace to ask for Pei Fang's hand in marriage."

Because of Cui Yan's actions.

Leng Yan was getting restless. He didn't want to see Pei Fang being sent off for a marriage alliance; Pei Heng was simply inhuman.

"What does he want to do?"

Pei Shang's tone was somewhat cold, "Otherwise what? The Emperor is unwilling to forgive Fangfang, and you've married someone else. Who in the capital would be willing to marry her?"

Leng Yan was stunned. "So you're saying you agreed to Pei Heng doing this?"

“Yes, Leng Yan… I have no other choice. I know Fangfang has done many wrong things. She deserves to die. My cousin has already shown great mercy by not ordering her death. But she is my sister.” As he spoke, Pei Shang’s eyes reddened slightly. He could give up wealth and honor, and he could give up the position of prime minister.

"My father is already dead, what more does he want?"

"Right now, all I want is for my younger siblings to be safe and sound. If the Emperor is unhappy about this, let him take it out on me."

Pei Shang was also forced into a corner this time.

Leng Yan couldn't bring herself to criticize him the way she criticized Zeng Xiao.

"I......"

Pei Shang raised his hand to interrupt him, "No need to say more. If there were any other way, I would not have sent Fangfang to another country."

“Even if she marries you, she won’t stay in the capital and behave herself. So send her to Dongling. If she still doesn’t repent, then even if she dies in a foreign land, I won’t bother to clean up her mess.”

After saying that, he turned and left.

......

"Did the Emperor agree?" Yun Xiyue asked.

"Not yet. Cui Yan is in the Imperial Study and hasn't left yet."

We can only wait until Murong Yu returns to ask him.

Yun Xiyue guessed that he would most likely not agree.

The Empress Dowager would not agree either.

However, a loophole appeared, so the Empress Dowager took the opportunity to propose that the Pei family marry Prince Rui as concubines, and then send Prince Rui and the others to their fiefdoms.

Prince Rui no longer has any fiefdoms.

The Empress Dowager did this to help Prince Rui be released from house arrest, to ask for a fiefdom, and to send her beloved adopted son and niece away from the troublesome capital.

Incidentally, they can also rescue the young prince, Rui, who has been placed under house arrest by the emperor.

The Empress Dowager felt this was the best outcome.

Murong Yu refused, and in a fit of anger, agreed to Cui Yan's marriage proposal, bestowing upon Pei Fang the title of county princess and sending her to Dongling Kingdom for a political marriage.

Prince Rui and his wife were sent to the imperial mausoleum and were not allowed to return without permission.

The Empress Dowager fainted from anger.

......

Murong Yu returned in the evening.

He was initially very angry, but upon arriving at the Jiaofang Palace, he didn't want to bring his bad mood to the child. He took a deep breath at the door and entered with a smile.

"Ayue!"

"Your Majesty, look, the baby can sit up and play now."

Yun Xiyue pulled him to the soft couch with a surprised tone.

The two sat down together.

Watching the three children crawling around on the bed.

I saw my father.

They all crawled over, babbling "Eeya eeya..."

She reached out her arms for a hug.

Murong Yu's expression softened as he embraced all three children.

"You've gotten a bit heavier. If you get any bigger, your father won't be able to carry all three of you at once," he said with a smile.

Xiao Bao is naughty and always tries to grab his hairband and tug at it.

Seeing Murong Yu frown, he chuckled.

"Little rascal."

Da Bao loves to sleep and doesn't smile much. He just glances at his father indifferently, showing no enthusiasm, but he loves to snuggle up on his father's lap and sleep.

The second baby loves to eat and needs to be breastfed.

Ghost Hand made several baby bottles, which made it very convenient to start feeding goat milk.
