He's not a mind reader, how could he possibly know what she's thinking?

But faced with three pairs of inquisitive eyes, he had no choice but to speak.

"So what if she still has feelings for you? Are you really just going to give up?"

Jun Jingyan quickly replied, "Of course not."

"So, does it matter?"

"..."

His words were a wake-up call for everyone!

Jun Jingyan was instantly enlightened.

Since she and that man are destined not to be together, what is there to worry about?

Even if she hasn't fallen for you yet, then work hard to win her heart!

Seeing his renewed spirits and regained confidence, Shen Fu felt gratified but couldn't help but feel a little suspicious.

Why did Yun Dai say that the man already had a wife?

He clearly stated that he has never been married!

Was it because she was worried that the Second Prince would misunderstand and she made up an excuse, thinking that saying it like this would put his mind at ease?

She couldn't think of any other reason besides this.

Little did she know, the man had already keenly observed her psychological changes.

He had already become more vigilant when Jun Jingyan mentioned this matter earlier.

It seems we need to find a way to "deal with" Yun Dai as soon as possible.

If we let her stay any longer, there's no guarantee she won't accidentally reveal something one day.

The best solution, of course, is to marry her off!

For this purpose, he also needs to find a way to bring this marriage together as soon as possible.

At this moment, Yun Dai had no idea that she was about to be sold out by a certain "skin-peeling couple"!

the other side.

Jun Qiyuan's current situation is extremely precarious.

In order to save his own life, he had no choice but to sacrifice Jiang Ruoyao.

Or rather, he had long been prepared to push her out as a scapegoat.

That day, he secretly tucked a silver needle, as thin as a cow's hair, between his fingers.

While slapping her, he silently inserted a silver needle into her body; the slight stinging pain was instantly masked by the burning pain.

That was a method he learned from the imperial physicians of the Northern Dynasty. Stimulating an acupoint near the chin on the lower part of the face could induce palpitations.

This is a unique secret technique of the Northern Dynasties, which even the most skilled imperial physicians and coroners could not detect.

Before she died, Jiang Ruoyao almost revealed their secret.

They absolutely deserved to die!

The only problem is that we've lost the Prime Minister's residence as a pillar.

That old fox, Prime Minister Jiang, probably already sensed something. He gave him a deep look before leaving that day, clearly indicating that they had already formed a grudge.

Although he had blamed everything on Jiang Ruoyao, his father was clearly still suspicious of him and ordered him to be confined to his quarters.

He has suffered a severe blow this time.

Let alone vying for the throne, it would be difficult to restore the Fourth Prince's residence to its former state.

He blamed everything on Jun Jingyan and that woman.

If it weren't for them, would I have ended up in this situation?

Previously, his focus had been on the Xuan King and Shen Fu, but now it was time to change his strategy.

He had at least confirmed one thing—that woman was truly his second brother's sweetheart!

Of all these royal children, only the second prince remains unmarried.

Countless young ladies from prominent families flocked to him, but he didn't even give them a second glance.

But this time, he openly protected that woman, making no attempt to hide his concern and defense of her.

It's clear she's truly fallen in love!

They ruined his life and made him a widower, yet they themselves wanted to be together with their lovers. There's no such thing as a free lunch.

He will absolutely not let them get away with this!

……

The next day in the imperial court, Emperor Yong suddenly announced something.

The Emperor of the Eastern Peak and the Empress of the Western Regions are already on their way to visit, and they want to hold a "Four-Country Alliance".

Due to the war in recent years, Dayong has had almost no contact with the other two countries.

They are only now coming to observe the situation because they have seen that the Yong Dynasty and the Northern Dynasty have "shaken hands and made peace".

When the court officials heard about this, they discussed it extensively.

"This is a good thing! Once the alliance is successful, the four nations can live in harmony and enjoy lasting peace!"

Emperor Yong clearly thought so too; his expression changed from the gloom of the past few days, and his face was full of undisguised smiles.

"Not only that, the Queen of the Western Regions also brought her most beloved princess, wanting to choose a suitable consort for her."

The Western Regions were matriarchal societies, where women were superior and men were inferior.

Whether in the royal family or in the imperial court, all important positions were held by women.

The only person who could be a match for the princess of the Western Regions was a son of the royal family.

Of the adult princes in the royal family today, apart from the third prince, who is frail and sickly and is currently practicing asceticism, and the fourth prince, who has just become a widower, only the second prince is unmarried.

As a result, everyone's eyes fell on him.

It seems the royal family is about to have another joyous occasion.

Emperor Yong was also looking at Jun Jingyan at this moment, his expression full of deep meaning.

"Yan'er, the important task of entertaining the Queen and Princess of the Western Regions is now entrusted to you."

Jun Jingyan's heart sank, and he quickly said, "Dongyue is a country of a thousand islands, connected to the southeast coast of Dayong. In recent years, I have been studying the regions of the four countries and have a good understanding of Dongyue culture. This is a good opportunity to have a good discussion with the Emperor of Dongyue. As for the Western Regions, I do not know much about them..."

He was interrupted before he could finish speaking.

"My mind is made up. The Emperor of Dongyue and his envoys will be placed under the command of the Xuan King. That's settled! Court adjourned!"

After saying this, Emperor Yong got up and left, not even giving everyone time to maneuver.

After the court session, Jun Jingyan rushed to the Xuanwang Mansion without stopping.

Everyone gathered together to discuss solutions.

Shen Fu was also greatly shocked when she learned of this.

"What? The Emperor wants you to receive the Queen and Princess of the Western Regions? Isn't this blatantly trying to make you the prince consort of the Western Regions?"

Jun Jingyan couldn't help but smile bitterly.

A wave of unrest, a wave of up again.

Before the issue of his relationship with Yun Dai could be resolved, new troubles arose.

"I will absolutely not agree to this. Even if I lose my status as a prince and am stripped of my title and demoted to a commoner, I will never marry another woman."

Shen Fu couldn't stand hearing this.

She firmly believed that only if Jun Jingyan became emperor could all potential threats be eliminated.

Even if he didn't want to, she wouldn't agree!

A quick glance revealed a glimpse of a garment peeking out from the doorway.

She chuckled to herself, an idea forming in her mind.

"Don't speak too soon. What if that princess from the Western Regions is as beautiful as an angel, and you fall in love at first sight?"

"How could that be? My heart belongs only to Miss Yun!"

"She doesn't accept your feelings, and she might still have another man in her heart. Why be so fixated on this? Perhaps the princess from the Western Regions is your true soulmate. That account book you carefully prepared could be a good betrothal gift for her."

Jun Anning was somewhat puzzled. Sister Shen knew that her brother was deeply in love with Doctor Yun, so why did she suddenly say such things?

Until I saw the look in her eyes, I instantly understood.

"Yes, that account book you prepared so carefully would make a good betrothal gift for the princess."

Upon hearing this, the person hiding outside the door finally broke down.
