Eunuch Mo subconsciously touched his back, gritted his teeth, and simply guarded the palace gate with the imperial edict. He kept guarding for the middle of the night, waiting for the palace gate to open and rush out first, and happened to be full of collision with Duke Zhong.

"Ouch!"

"Who is it? You're so unopposed!" Duke Zhong retreated and was hit by a dog to eat shit. When he touched the wound, he couldn't help but suck and cursed. After seeing the person clearly, Duke Zhong calmed down his face: "Isn't this Eunuch Mo? Why is it so early?"

Eunuch Mo was also hit hard, with a smile on his face: "Oh, Duke Zhongguo, it's not time for morning court yet, why are you..."

Before he finished speaking, Eunuch Mo probably guessed that Duke Zhongguo was very likely to come to break off the engagement, so Eunuch Mo said very quickly: "Duke Zhongguo, I am ordered to visit you. What happened last night has reached the emperor's ears."

"Is that so, the emperor must be very angry, right?"

"No, the emperor was so angry that he didn't sleep all night. Even the imperial physician said that no one was allowed to disturb him, otherwise the military law would deal with it." Eunuch Mo said this to this point, and Duke Zhongguo couldn't continue to move forward, and asked again: "Is the emperor okay?"

"Oh, the emperor..." Eunuch Mo cleared his throat, raised the imperial edict, and said in a sharp duck-like voice: "Duke Zhongguo received the imperial edict!"

Duke Zhongguo was stunned, then knelt on the ground, raised his hands high: "I received the order."

"In accordance with the will of heaven, the emperor ordered... to give Princess Yu'an of Yunlan Kingdom to the Prince of Zhongguo as his wife, and ordered the Ministry of Internal Affairs to choose a good day to get married. I admire this!"

Before Duke Zhong could react, Duke Mo directly locked the imperial edict and stuffed it into Duke Zhong's high hand.

"This..." Duke Zhongguo was furious and stood up directly; "What's going on? How could the emperor issue an order to marry?"

He waited at the palace gate for several hours, his waist was sore and his arms were sore, just hoping that Emperor Mingwen could take back his order. Duke Zhongguo's mansion did not want to marry Princess Yu'an.

That is a disaster spirit, sooner or later, it will harm Duke Zhongguo's mansion.

"Dude, have you forgotten? You rush to ask the emperor to marry the prince and the princess for eight hundred miles. In order to make up for the Duke's Mansion, the emperor asked the Ministry of Internal Affairs to hold the marriage as soon as possible. Why did you blame the emperor instead?"

Eunuch Mo deliberately had a stern face, but a big stone in his heart fell to the ground. His back was saved. He was given by the imperial edict, so there was absolutely no reason to take it back casually.

Duke Zhongguo looked cold and said, "That's because the child is ignorant and confused for a while. Moreover, Yunlan Kingdom wants to marry the emperor. As for the child, the emperor will be free to beat or punish him."

At worst, I was punished for a slap, which would be better than the backyard of Duke Zhongguo’s mansion being uneasy. After returning to the mansion last night, the old concubine gave him the accusation and refused to ask Princess Yu'an to enter the mansion.

In the words of the old concubine, if you marry Princess Yu'an, the Duke's house will be in a state of turmoil and you will even have the worries of extermination.

"I'm going to see the emperor." Duke Zhongguo insisted on meeting Emperor Mingwen despite Eunuch Mo's obstruction, but Eunuch Mo couldn't stop him.

Inside the Political Consultative Hall

Emperor Mingwen rubbed his eyebrows, and Duke Zhong from outside the hall knelt under the steps and raised his imperial edict and begged him to take back his decree.

A young father-in-law will come to report: "Princess Yunlan is asking for a meeting."

He could not see Duke Zhongguo, but he could not keep guests from afar, so Emperor Mingwen could only see her.

Princess Yu'an changed her arrogant and domineering appearance yesterday and leaned over to Emperor Mingwen to salute: "Yu'an pays tribute to the emperor, and the emperor has thousands of blessings and gold anger."

"The princess doesn't have to be polite, she gives her a seat."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Princess Yu'an sat on the small stool beside her, her eyes slightly red. Emperor Mingwen pretended not to see it, and drank tea lightly, as if she had forgotten her, a living person.

Princess Yu'an couldn't hold it anymore and said softly: "Your Majesty, I don't understand a lot of things when I first arrived. Because I like the prosperity of Kyoto, I feel itchy. I rode a horse on the street. I was frightened and hit several vendors on the way. There were no casualties. But Chu Shanggong was aggressive and deliberately forced me to apologize and insulted my face in Yunlan Country."

Even Eunuch Mo couldn't help but curl his lips. He could really pretend to be like a black and white.

Emperor Mingwen refused to speak for a long time and just listened quietly until Princess Yu'an turned the tables and complained, she still said nothing.

After not waiting for a long time, Princess Yu'an couldn't help but look up, but found that Emperor Mingwen was drowsy and looked like he was about to fall asleep with a look of listlessness.

"emperor?"

Emperor Mingwen looked up and looked at Princess Yu'an with a confused look on his face. He coughed twice from time to time, and vomited half of his mouthful of blood with his handkerchief. Princess Yu'an's face changed slightly. Could it be that Emperor Mingwen's body is really as bad as the rumors say?

"Your Majesty, please change to a new one." Eunuch Mo skillfully took out a handkerchief from his arms and handed it to Emperor Mingwen.

Emperor Mingwen took it and wiped the corner of his mouth, supported his jaw with one hand, and his eyes were almost squinting into a slit again. Eunuch Mo leaned into his ear and whispered, "Your Majesty, wake up, the princess is reporting to you."

Emperor Mingwen yawned and said slowly: "What does the princess have to say, but it's okay. You are a guest from afar, I want to treat you well..." As he spoke, he yawned again, and looked at Princess Yu'an with a dull look.

Princess Yu'an felt a little angry and had nowhere to vent her. At this moment, she was like a mute eating coptis chinensis, and she had to swallow it bitterly.

But she was unwilling to give up, so she took a step forward, her voice unconsciously raised, and repeated the words just now.

Emperor Mingwen yawned repeatedly, tears flashed across the corners of his eyes. He quickly wiped it with a veil and said to Princess Yu'an: "The princess said that riding a horse hurts people. This is not a country of Yunlan. You must not tolerate this matter."

"Your Majesty, I mean yesterday that Chu Shanggong was offended by the superiors and caused me to hurt people."

"Princess, how many people did you hurt by riding a horse?"

"The emperor, it was Chu Shang Palace who hurt people.

"Princess, please say it again, are those people seriously injured?"

The two of them answered the question irrelevantly. After entangled for a long time, Eunuch Mo almost couldn't help laughing, and thought that Emperor Mingwen's move was really clever.

Princess Yu'an stomped her feet in anger: "I have never hurt anyone, why is the emperor so confused!"

"Bold, you dare to insult the emperor!" Eunuch Mo scolded with a cold face, which scared Princess Yu'an so much that she shivered, angry and anxious: "Your Majesty, it was Chu Shanggong who deliberately framed me. You want to make the decision for me."

The two argued for a long time, and Princess Yu'an's patience was slowly exhausted. At this time, Prime Minister Gong and Jing Zhaoyin asked for a meeting.

Emperor Mingwen yawned heavily: "What's going on today? Come one by one, let's go!"

After a while, Prime Minister Gong and Jingzhao Yin came one after another, saluted to Emperor Mingwen, the leader. Princess Yu'an said to Prime Minister Gong: "Prime Minister Gong, did Chu Shanggong shock me yesterday and killed more than a dozen of my guards."

Prime Minister Gong was pointed at the nose and frowned, very unhappy: "What did the princess say? I have never seen the overall situation, I don't know the cause and effect, and I can't evaluate it."

If he was speaking for Princess Yu'an, he was slapping Emperor Mingwen in the face. Which emperor would look at the envoys of neighboring countries and look down on his own country?

Even if Prime Minister Gong wants to cure Chu Yunning's crimes, he can still distinguish between inside and outside.

"Prime Minister, you are protecting Chu Shang Palace!" Princess Yu'an said angrily: "I didn't expect that you officials will protect each other and have no distinction between right and wrong."

Prime Minister Gong was unhappy to hear this and asked back: "It is a fact that the princess hurts people. What's wrong with asking the princess to apologize?"

"I didn't mean it."

"Then Chu Shanggong asked the princess to apologize. Why did the princess refuse to apologize and insult the people as a bad life?" Prime Minister of the Palace said indifferently.

Princess Yu'an denied: "That must be because Prime Minister Gong heard it wrong. This princess has never said this."

Prime Minister Gong sneered: "The princess is a polite word, and I am not the only one present. I will know it by asking casually. Our country sincerely wants to marry, but the princess slandered our country again and again. It is obvious that she did not take our country seriously. What's wrong with Chu Shanggong protecting our country's face?"

"You!" Princess Yu'an didn't understand. The two people who had been compared yesterday were not even close to each other. Logically speaking, Prime Minister Gong should have helped him deal with Chu Yunning. How could he help Chu Yunning excuse him?

"Your Majesty, I think Chu Shanggong is doing it right." After the Prime Minister's words, Jing Zhaoyin also agreed with his personal sensuality; "Your Majesty, what the Prime Minister said is very true. It is indeed the princess who is wrong first. Chu Shanggong just upholds justice and has no fault."

"Jingzhao Yin!" Princess Yu'an's beautiful eyes were almost spitting out of fire, and she stared at Jingzhao Yin fiercely.

Jingzhao Yin frowned. He was not a subordinate of Princess Yu'an, so there was no need to listen to other people's command. Fools knew that Chu Shanggong was deeply trusted by the emperor and the queen mother. Chu Shanggong took action to represent the emperor. Only when he was full would he speak for a foreign princess who was powerless and powerless.

What's more, Princess Yu'an has caused trouble. Including the one last night, it has been three times. The first two times were injured and it would be fine to compensate and comfort those people. But this time, Princess Yu'an hit the gun herself, so she could only admit that she was unlucky.

Princess Yu'an cried aggrievedly: "You all bully me!"

A little girl cried in the hall, while the rest looked at each other, but no one could sympathize with Princess Yu'an. After all, everyone still remembered her arrogant look yesterday.

"Cough cough!" Emperor Mingwen continued to cough.

One coughed and the other cried, the disharmonious voices gathered together, and it was a bit noisy. Prime Minister Gong and Jing Zhaoyin looked at each other, and finally frowned, not daring to speak out.

After a while, Duke Zhong's voice came from outside the hall: "Your Majesty, it's time for you to meet the old minister."

"Your Majesty, Chu Shanggong not only beat me yesterday, but also beat Duke Zhong for no reason. He is a witness. It can be proved that Chu Shanggong provoked me first." Princess Yu'an seemed to have caught a life-saving straw, how could she forget Duke Zhong?

Emperor Mingwen winked at Eunuch Mo, and Eunuch Mo immediately knew to go out and invite Duke Zhongguo.

"Duke, the emperor, please go in immediately." Eunuch Mo helped Duke Zhong with a handful of Duke Zhong and lowered his voice and said, "It is related to the face of the emperor. Yesterday's incident has caused a lot of storm. The emperor not only did not blame Chu Shanggong, but also privately rewarded thousands of acres of fertile land. You must reply carefully."

When Duke Zhong heard this, he looked at Eunuch Mo with annoyance, hummed and went in, knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Emperor Mingwen: "I would like to pay my respects to the emperor, and I would like to make the decision for me."

"Get up and give me a seat." Emperor Mingwen raised his hand.

When Duke Zhongguo thought of being humiliated by Chu Yunning yesterday, he was so excited that he snot and tears were filled with excitement.

"Duke Zhongguo?"

"I'm here." Duke Zhongguo looked up at Emperor Mingwen, and was suddenly shocked by the sharpness in Emperor Mingwen's eyes.

"Prime Minister, why don't you help Duke Zhong sit down?"

Prime Minister Gong helped Duke Zhong sit down. Duke Zhong thanked him tremblingly, and for some reason he couldn't say anything about his words.

"Why can't the Duke even say anything? Prime Minister, why don't you come and talk to the Duke?" Emperor Mingwen said in a light tone. He slowly held a cup of tea from the table and handed it to his mouth and drank it, but his eyes looked at Prime Minister Gong with a sharp look.

"No need to ask Prime Minister Gong, I'll say." Princess Yu'an took a step forward and said to Duke Zhongguo: "I was shocked by Chu Shanggong on the street yesterday, which made me reluctant to hit several vendors. Is there anything wrong?"

Duke Zhongguo nodded without hesitation.

"You are confused, Duke, you are confused. The princess first rode a horse and ran into a stallion. Chu Shanggong asked the princess to apologize. The two sides were in a stalemate, so Chu Shanggong took the initiative to teach the princess a lesson." Jingzhao Yin reminded kindly.

Even fools can see that the emperor does not want to pursue this matter at all, and he also wants to protect Chu Shanggong.

It depends on whether Duke Zhongguo’s mind is smart or not.

"No, it was Chu Shanggong who shocked me first!" Princess Yu'an retorted.

When Duke Zhong heard this, he followed Princess Yu'an's words: "Yes, the princess's words are reasonable. It was Chu Shanggong who shocked the princess's horse first."

"Duke Zhongguo, is this really the case?" Emperor Mingwen yawned and asked casually, but his eyes were like a cold pool. Duke Zhongguo was so scared that he immediately changed his words: "Reply to the emperor, I don't know what the specific situation is."

"Duke Zhongguo, why don't you talk to me?" Princess Yu'an glared at Duke Zhongguo unhappily. If it weren't for the fact that Prince Li could coax people and was very handsome, she wouldn't have agreed to marry Prince Li.
