After entering the wrong bridal chamber, I went to farm with the powerful minister

Qiao Wanyou was speechless for a moment and just stared at her daughter in a daze.

"Mom." Fu Nanyao called softly, "You also want your daughter to be well, right?"

Before today, especially when she heard that the purpose of going to Beiqi to marry was to become the old emperor's concubine, she was absolutely unwilling.

How could she give her best years to an old man?
But today, she knew that she was marrying the prince of a neighboring country, and her feelings began to become complicated. She had been with Ali for quite some time, so how could she not have feelings for him? Therefore, her feelings were very chaotic and mixed.

Later, Princess Shi went with her to look for the prince of the neighboring country. Along the way, she talked a lot with her, saying that many people wanted to marry the prince of the neighboring country.

She couldn't help but wonder, what kind of person could receive so much favor as soon as he arrived in Kyoto?
As expected, the moment Ali saw Gongsun Sheng, he was far inferior to him.

She also wants to have a beautiful relationship like that between her brother and sister-in-law.

As a woman, she also wants to get what her sister-in-law will get in the future.

What's more, Crown Prince Sheng originally asked Princess Dajing to marry him. If she married him, she would be the Crown Princess of Beiqi.

With such status and such a handsome husband, no woman would not be moved.

Qiao Wanyou sighed: "Nan Yao, once you enter the palace, it's like entering a deep sea. Don't you understand?"

"Sister-in-law is the legitimate daughter of the Duke's Mansion, and is a good match for my brother. Mother, I am the legitimate princess of Dajing, and naturally I am a good match for the Crown Prince of Beiqisheng. The palace is like an ocean, and I naturally understand that whether it is power or favor, I have to fight for it myself."

Qiao Wanyou shook her head: "You compare yourself with your sister-in-law. Are you trying to say that the status of the Duke's mansion's legitimate daughter is not as high as that of you, the legitimate princess?"

"I know the position of my sister-in-law in my mother's heart. My sister-in-law is also very important in my heart, but my daughter is a princess after all."

It’s not too much to want to pursue a good destination, right?
Which noble lady from an aristocratic family doesn't want to be admired by everyone and have a handsome husband by her side?

Not to mention that she is a legitimate princess.

Qiao Wanyou said earnestly, "You also know that there are many women around your father. Not every man can devote all his love to one woman."

"Father's heart and eyes are now filled with you, Mother, and my brother only has my sister-in-law in his heart."

"I cannot guarantee what will happen to your father in the future. Your brother and your sister-in-law have gone through so many hardships and setbacks to get to where they are today. Do you think that if you agree to the marriage, you can ensure that Crown Prince Sheng will treat you wholeheartedly in the future?"

"The relationship between my brother and his wife is built through time and space. I believe that if I spend more time with my husband in the future, the relationship will naturally develop."

"What about Ali?"

"Ali, he..." Fu Nanyao lowered her eyes and argued softly, "But mother, Prince Sheng asked for the marriage of the legitimate princess, and my daughter is willing. This is not wrong, right? Ali knows that I am doing this for the country, so he will understand me."

Before Qiao Wanyou could say anything else, Nanny Li knocked on the door.

"Your Majesty, a eunuch came to say that the banquet is about to begin. Please move."

"understood."

The marriage had not been finalized yet. Qiao Wanyou thought there was still room for improvement. She glanced at her daughter and took a step forward.

Fu Nanyao quickly followed: "Mom, you have to help me."

"Help you?" Qiao Wanyou was obviously angry, "This matter cannot be discussed again today."

She didn't want to talk to her about it anymore.

The emperor and empress had to enter together, so at this moment she went straight to the imperial study.

Fu Nanyao followed her mother for a few steps, then stopped, thinking that she had probably angered her mother. She stood for a while and decided to go back to her own bedroom to dress up.

At this moment, there is a secluded corner of the Imperial Garden.

Sitting in the pavilion were brother and sister Gongsun Sheng and Gongsun Man.

Outside the pavilion, Gongsun Lei and his men were guarding.

"After all, you and I are in Dajing. To be honest, what if someone doesn't want us to return to Beiqi alive? What will you do?" Gongsun Sheng lowered his voice.

Gongsun Man was startled for a moment, then quickly smiled and said, "Brother, as the crown prince, you can be sent as an envoy to Dajing, you must have made sufficient preparations behind the scenes."

Gongsun Sheng didn't respond to his sister's words, but warned her: "Be more restrained."

Gongsun Man nodded: "I understand. I won't target her tonight, but I will secure the position of Princess Rui." Emperor Dajing has not yet appointed a crown prince.

She just didn't believe that Prince Rui didn't want to be the crown prince.

As long as he marries her, he will be able to gain the support of the entire Northern Qi, and won't that bring him one step closer to the position of crown prince?
I believe that based on this point alone, Prince Rui would be able to divorce the daughter of the Yan family and marry her as his principal wife.

When the three siblings left the Imperial Garden and turned a corner to head towards the palace banquet hall, Fu Ciyi and Yan Funing just arrived.

Gongsun Sheng greeted with a smile: "Prince Rui, Princess Rui."

Seeing the other party being so polite, Fu Ciyi raised his hand and said, "Please."

"I didn't see you two at the tea party." Gongsun Sheng smiled and said, "I heard that Prince Rui was the top scholar in Dajing. I wonder when we will have a chance to learn from each other?"

Fu Ciyi thought that this person was starting to play tricks, but he didn't show it on his face and said calmly, "Let's talk about it later."

There was nothing wrong with their conversation. Yan Funing did not think too much about it. She was just paying attention to the way Gongsun Man glanced at Fu Ciyi from time to time.

Everyone entered the hall one after another and the dinner began soon.

The hall is full of bright lights, as bright as day.

The water sleeves dance gracefully.

Good wine has a fragrant aroma that is intoxicating.

The flowing lights dance with the joyful songs, and the banquet is filled with cups and glasses.

Everything seemed to be going smoothly, Yan Funing smiled faintly. Gongsun Man, who was standing opposite her, almost stared at someone, but was strangely silent. This contradiction made her confused.

Suddenly, Gongsun Man raised her glass towards her: "Princess Rui, I lost to your elder sister at noon. Since your elder sister was competing on your behalf, as the loser, I should toast you a glass."

The reason was sufficient and Yan Funing couldn't refuse for the time being.

Fu Ciyi held down her hand that was about to take the wine glass: "She is not good at drinking."

Gongsun Man was so happy that she was able to talk to King Rui. She said, "How about King Rui drinking with me on her behalf?"

Yan Funing only realized it late that this was what Gongsun Man was planning.

At noon, someone drank for her.

Gongsun Man must have seized on this point and wanted to take the opportunity to drink with him.

She refused to let him, so she patted his hand gently and said, "My dear husband, please let me have a drink with the princess."

"You'll get drunk." The man said gently.

"It's okay to get drunk, don't you have your husband here?" Yan Funing smiled sweetly and raised her glass towards Gongsun Man, "Princess, please."

Gongsun Man's eyes narrowed.

He didn't expect that his little plan was seen through by the girl from the Yan family. She immediately grabbed the wine glass angrily and swallowed the wine in the glass with one gulp.

She wanted to see what kind of ugly behavior a woman who was not very good at drinking would have after drinking too much.

Seeing that the other party had drunk, Yan Funing held the wine glass, raised her sleeves, and slowly drank as well.

Her every move and gesture exuded the grace of Princess Dajing.

Gongsun Man was unhappy and poured herself another cup: "Princess Rui, do you dare to drink another cup with me?"

"No." Yan Funing lowered her eyes and shook her finger.

Just sitting, his body was swaying slightly.

Fu Ciyi hugged her: "Are you drunk?"

From Gongsun Sheng's perspective, he could just see the corners of her eyes already turning red. (End of this chapter)
