Saving the foolish general, she accidentally becomes his favorite.

After listening to the bird's description, Ye Li understood.

The woman in white was playing a clever game. She didn't attend the state banquet or show her face in front of others. Instead, she quietly approached the second prince and waited for her opportunity to act.

The second prince came to represent a nation in a marriage alliance, so the selection of this person was of great importance.

If the second prince chooses a noblewoman as his marriage partner at the banquet, then she will submit to the second prince and quietly leave.

If the second prince does not take a liking to the group of noble ladies who are performing talents, then she will be brought into the open and will naturally be granted the title of princess.

Ye Li gently stroked the cat Annie, and said playfully:

"I didn't expect Lu Wanning to change her target and take a fancy to this foreign prince."

Annie rolled over, exposing her belly, and rubbed against Ye Li:

"Isn't this perfect? ​​Throw her out, so she won't keep thinking about your husband."

Ye Li stroked her soft belly and murmured:

“Lu Wanning is no pushover. Her intentions in approaching the Second Prince are impure. If she succeeds, and one day the Second Prince becomes the ruler of the country, she will gain power…”

Anne brandished her claws and said disdainfully:

"Then we should prevent her from seducing others, cut off her escape route, or kill her."

Ye Li: "..."

These bold words made Ye Li facepalm. Since arriving in ancient times, life and death here are decided by power, and animals are even more subject to the law of the jungle. Annie's wild instincts have been awakened.

Ye Li sighed:

"Let me think about it..."

Kittens may be cute, but they're actually quite straightforward.

Ye Li pondered:

"Since she wants to hide in the shadows, I'll make her step onto this stage and give her a good performance..."

Having made up her mind, Ye Li walked to her desk and began to write.

The next day, rumors began to circulate in Kyoto.

People everywhere were saying that the second prince had fallen in love with the eldest daughter of the Minister's family.

"Your information is wrong. I clearly heard that he has fallen in love with a palace maid!"

"No, no, I have a family member working in the palace. He clearly said he had fallen in love with the Li family's daughter, Furong!"

The news that the second prince had a sweetheart spread quickly, but strangely enough, there were hundreds of different versions of who his sweetheart was.

From daughters of wealthy families to ordinary palace maids, there are even stories of the second prince falling for the sister of a great general, and military families are no exception.

The arrival of a prince from another country for a marriage alliance is a major event, and the people are always very interested in such a romantic affair, which leads to a flurry of rumors that escalate over time.

Even women in the streets, envious of the second prince's power, began to include their own names in the names of the prince's beloved:

"The second prince likes me, not them!"

"You're talking nonsense! I'm the Second Prince's beloved!"

The rumors quickly reached the ears of the delegation, and many servants looked very uncomfortable when they heard those ugly women claiming to be their masters' sweethearts.

Not to mention the second prince himself, who, as proud as he was, always considered himself an unparalleled hero of his time. How could he tolerate becoming a laughingstock in another country and allowing these vain women to run rampant!

In a fit of anger, the second prince went directly to the palace to see Mo Chen, saying that he wanted to clear his name.

Upon hearing the news reported by the palace maid, Ye Li smiled slightly and said to Mo Chen:

"There's something good to watch."

Mo Chen has been quite annoyed with the delegation these days. This second prince is so arrogant that he holds banquets in the palace every day just to let him choose a concubine. This kind of fuss is even more extravagant than that of the late emperor.

Unfortunately, he had to be present to preside over the event, which wasted his time with his wife.

For example, right now, this should be a rare time alone between him and his wife, but he has to go to the main hall to meet outsiders. Mo Chen noticed that Ye Li was in a particularly good mood today, as if she had been looking forward to something since morning, and couldn't help but ask:

"What's the show? Tell me about it?"

Ye Li smiled slyly:

"Wait a minute and you'll find out."

Seeing his wife's fox-like smile, Mo Chen found it adorable. The Second Prince and his entourage were clearly up to no good, so since his wife had her own ideas, he would let her have them.

Mo Chen stood up gracefully, took Ye Li's hand, rubbed it gently, and smiled:

"Alright, alright, I'll listen to my wife."

The main hall of Tian Shu Kingdom.

The second prince was extremely anxious and had been waiting impatiently for a long time. When he saw the regent arrive, he quickly said:

"Your Highness, you must avenge me! Rumors are flying all over the capital, spreading gossip about me. You must punish these troublemakers!"

Mo Chen feigned a sigh:

"Second Prince, please calm down. This matter is all because you are a handsome and talented man, yet your marriage is not yet arranged, which has aroused the affections of countless young women. If you can find a good match, I believe this matter will soon be resolved."

An envoy standing nearby chimed in:

"Yes, no matter how much these women spread rumors, once His Highness decides on the marriage, they will have no chance anymore."

Mo Chen looked at the Second Prince and nodded:

"I also want to know, after seeing so many women, which one did the Second Prince choose?"

Second Prince: "My beloved is naturally a unique treasure in this world, but... her name..."
