Xie Yuqi set his sights on Song Qingning's marriage.

Shen Lin understood Xie Yuqi's intention.

Song Qingning is a woman, and she will eventually get married. Whoever she marries can profit from her name.

However, Qi'er had already married a concubine, and because Song Qingyan impersonated Mingyuexian, he lost the trust of the aristocratic officials.

He previously married Song Qingyan because of Mingyue Xian's identity, and now he wants to marry Song Qingning. His intentions are too obvious.

Shen Lin was not optimistic.

He explained his concerns to Xie Yuqi one by one.

Xie Yuqi immediately flew into a rage. "Am I supposed to just stand by and watch Song Qingning side with Xie Xuanjin? He commands the Shence Army, has the Meng family behind him, and if he also has Mingyue Xian's influence over the civil officials, how can I possibly compete with him for that position?!"

"No matter what, I must gain Song Qingning's support."

Xie Yuqi clenched his fists, his eyes blazing with arrogance. "If I can't have it, I'll destroy it!"

Shen Lin agreed.

If I can't have it, I must destroy it.

But first, we need to find a way to obtain it.

Shen Lin pondered for a while, and quickly came up with an idea: "If we want Song Qingning's support, we don't necessarily have to marry her. We can let someone else marry her."

Xie Yuqi frowned. "What do you mean?"

"Song Qingning will get married sooner or later, but the Emperor is wary of Prince Huai. He doesn't even allow Prince Huai to marry a noblewoman. So the Emperor will not allow Prince Huai to marry Song Qingning to strengthen his power. Even if Song Qingning is willing to support Prince Huai, as long as she is not his princess, the relationship will not be stable."

"Song Qingning's marriage is unpredictable. She is a woman, and ultimately she will have to follow her husband's lead."

"We could find a trustworthy person to marry her, and that might give us her support naturally."

As Shen Lin finished speaking, the door was suddenly pushed open.

The loud bang startled the two of them.

The two frowned as they looked at Shen Yue as he entered, only to see that Shen Yue's eyes were full of excitement.

"Me, me, me."

"Father, cousin, aren't I the readily available, trustworthy people?"

Shen Yue volunteered, eager to give it a try.

Song Qingning is wild but beautiful, and she also has the identity of Mingyue Xian. If he marries her, he can benefit from her status, and then no one will still say that his Shen family is just a merchant family with no background.

However, Xie Yuqi and Shen Lin immediately rejected his proposal.

"You can't do it," they both said in unison.

Shen Yue's face stiffened. "Why can't I?"

"Cousin, I'm your own cousin, we're one. I would never betray you. Cousin, don't you believe in my loyalty?"

Xie Yuqi didn't disbelieve; rather, he believed it too much.

Everyone knows that the Shen family and Prince Rui are one entity, and the intention behind having Shen Yue marry Song Qingning is still very clear.

Song Qingning's marriage is of great importance.

Using marriage to bring Song Qingning to their side is a matter of great importance.

The people chosen must be selected with utmost care.

Xie Yuqi and Shen Lin both thought of the same person at this moment.

"Liang Xingjian!" the two exclaimed in unison.

Liang Xingjian came from the Liang family. Although Liang Shuyi married Prince Rui and became his principal wife, the Liang family was very dissatisfied with Prince Rui because he disregarded the Liang family's reputation and insisted on bringing in his concubine Song Qingyan when he married his principal wife.

When Liang Xingjian married Song Qingning, no one would think too much about it.

Liang Xingjian is the best candidate!

A hint of excitement flashed in Xie Yuqi's eyes. "Let's do it this way. I'll go back to the manor immediately and tell Shuyi to bring this up with Liang Xingjian."

Xie Yuqi did not delay at all.

Prince Rui's Mansion.

Liang Shuyi was getting ready to go to sleep.

When Xie Yuqi entered, she was taken aback for a moment. Then she heard Xie Yuqi mention Liang Xingjian, "Xingjian is getting on in years and is still unmarried. It's time for him to get married."

Liang Shuyi is intelligent.

It was immediately clear that Xie Yuqi already had someone in mind and wanted his elder brother to marry her.

"Which family's young lady is she?" Liang Shuyi asked directly.

Xie Yuqi: "The Yongning Marquis's Residence, Song Qingning."

Song Qingning?

The name made Liang Shuyi's body stiffen.

Xie Yuqi thought that she thought of Song Qingyan because of the name Song Qingning, and he hugged her and apologized with guilt.

"When I married Song Qingyan, I only wanted to use her identity as Mingyue Xian. I had no feelings for her, but my feelings for you are different."

Xie Yuqi whispered gently in her ear.

He said he was only using Song Qingyan, and Liang Shuyi believed him.

But Liang Shuyi didn't believe him when he said he treated her differently.

A hint of sarcasm flashed in Liang Shuyi's eyes.

As she thought of Song Qingning, the undisguised admiration in her brother's eyes whenever he mentioned Song Qingning came to mind, and Liang Shuyi hesitated.

But in the end, she lowered her eyes and said, "I will go back to the Liang family tomorrow and discuss this matter with them."

"Alright, Shuyi, if your brother marries Song Qingning, I will reward you handsomely." Xie Yuqi picked up Liang Shuyi and walked towards the bed.

That night, Xie Yuqi stayed in Liang Shuyi's room.

The following day, Liang Shuyi returned to the Liang residence.

Two days later, the Liang family visited the Yongning Marquis's residence.

Madam Liang visited Madam Lu.

Madam Lu entertained Madam Liang in the flower hall. The two drank tea and chatted. Madam Liang was very enthusiastic, so much so that Madam Lu became suspicious.

After drinking tea until the afternoon, Madam Liang finally asked, "Madam Song, where is your second wife, Liu?"

"Madam Liang originally came to see her sister-in-law," Madam Lu said with a smile. "It's really unfortunate, as her sister-in-law has been frequently leaving the manor lately, and I don't know what she's doing there. Madam Liang, you can wait a little longer if you're looking for her."

Madam Liang disliked Lady Liu.

Recently, rumors have been circulating that Song Qingyan, who impersonated Mingyue Xian, was corrupted by Liu Shi, who even instigated her to poison Lu Shi.

Madam Lu had long since disowned that daughter.

Therefore, Song Qingyan's scandal did not affect the Lu family.

Everyone sympathized with Madam Lu, whose fine daughter had been corrupted by Madam Liu.

But Lady Liu happens to be the mother of Song Qingning, the true fairy of the moon, so Song Qingning's marriage still has to be decided by her.

"Wait, then wait a moment." Madam Liang said with a smile.

They waited until evening.

After finishing his official business, Song Qingning encountered Liang Xingjian as he left the Capital City Office.

He heard from somewhere that she liked reading military books, so he came to borrow them from her.

Song Qingning admired Liang Xingjian.

This person is kind, righteous, and straightforward.

Previously, at the shooting range, she used him as a warning to others, thinking that the two would inevitably become enemies after that. However, to her surprise, Liang Xingjian did not hold a grudge and instead said that they became friends through a fight.

So when he asked Song Qingning to lend him the military treatise, Song Qingning did not refuse.

However, when Liang Xingjian spoke to her today, he often avoided eye contact and acted awkwardly.

That's unusual.

"Lord Song, I won't go in. I'll wait for you here, or you can send a servant to bring out the military treatise."

As soon as Liang Xingjian opened his mouth, his face burned intensely.

Fortunately, he had thick skin and wasn't as pale as a scholar, which allowed him to cover up the blush on his face.
