Pin Shanhe

Left with no other choice, Shen Fu had to voice her thoughts.

He was interrupted halfway through his sentence.

"They couldn't possibly be one person!"

His tone was not one of doubt, but rather one of unwavering resolve.

Of course, Shen Fu also had her own ideas.

"You've never even met him, so why are you so sure?"

"..."

Doesn't he understand himself?

But unable to reveal the truth, they could only try to change her mind.

"Everyone knows that Chu Lingyu was in Dongyue at the time of the incident. How could he have appeared in Yongchao? Does he have a clone technique?"

Shen Fu retorted directly: "You went to the Northwest, making us all think you were dead, but you secretly returned to the capital. If you could do it, why can't he?"

"..."

This is what they call "lifting a stone to drop it on one's own foot."

He suddenly realized that it's not good for women to be too smart.

These are clearly two separate issues and should not be confused.

Shen Fu, however, insisted on her own opinion and even came up with reasons for the other party.

In order to find his younger sister, the emperor, Chu Lingyu repeatedly concealed his identity and came to the Yong Dynasty.

He happened to run into her, who had been framed by Hong Ling and was under the influence of a love potion, and they ended up having a relationship by accident.

He wanted to take responsibility, but she already had a husband and wanted to keep her distance.

After the falling out that night at the funeral hall, he returned to Dongyue and never appeared again.

Until this time, under the guise of visiting the Yong Dynasty, he appeared...

The man listened to her analysis and felt a slight headache coming on.

He finally understood Yun Dai's helplessness at that time.

Under her analysis, he almost began to doubt himself.

"So you've already decided that he's the Crown Prince of Dongyue?"

"Otherwise, is there a second possibility?"

"..."

Her current state is clearly not something that can be easily changed with just a few words.

Unless strong evidence can be presented, even a divine being couldn't refute it.

The only way is...

North Suburb Inn.

When Meng Wan learned that Jun Qiyuan had once again become embroiled in the "battle" between the Western Regions and the Eastern Yue Prince Consort, she completely broke down.

Unable to contain her grievances and despair any longer, she chose to end her life.

When Jun Qiyuan arrived, he only saw a white silk ribbon hanging from the beam.

Although the person had been rescued, he was in very poor condition, and I was overcome with grief the moment I saw him.

"Get out, I don't want to see you!"

Jun Qiyuan quickly comforted her, "Wan'er, let me explain..."

Meng Wan's voice was hoarse from excitement.

"You said you had no choice but to marry Shen Fu, and I believed you; then you wanted to marry Jiang Ruoyao, and I understood you had no other choice. But now you want to marry a princess and become her consort! You liar!"

Jun Qiyuan was already overwhelmed with problems, but he still had to patiently coax her.

Unfortunately, this time Meng Wan really broke down and completely collapsed, and nothing could be done to help her.

Just then, a mocking voice came from the doorway: "Crying, making a scene, and threatening suicide—these are indeed your women's signature moves. But if it's always like this, it'll get boring."

When Meng Wan saw him, a hint of guilt flashed across her face.

After being forced to reveal the truth that day, she was filled with anxiety, worried that the other party would expose her secret.

Fortunately, Murong Xiao kept his promise and not only did not betray her, but also spoke highly of her to Jun Qiyuan.

Their relationship has actually gotten better than before.

The good days didn't last long before this happened again.

She couldn't think straight for a moment, so she...

Jun Qiyuan couldn't help but frown. "Didn't I tell you to keep this a secret and not let her know?"

"You can hide it for a while, but you can't hide it forever. I've already done more than enough by letting her stay here. I have no obligation to take care of your woman."

"you……"

Jun Qiyuan almost brought up what happened that night to settle scores, but he swallowed the words back down.

That's enough trouble already; he can't afford to cause any more.

Fortunately, Meng Wan became much quieter because of his appearance, and she didn't make as much of a fuss as before.

Seeing them embracing each other, Murong Xiao coldly curled his lips, clearly enjoying the show.

"They really are like a pair of mandarin ducks about to be separated. Let them hug each other a little longer. Once they marry into the Eastern Yue or the Western Regions, they won't have this chance anymore."

"What do you mean?"

Jun Qiyuan's face was extremely ugly.

He came here to discuss countermeasures, not to listen to sarcastic remarks.

"I was merely stating the facts. Isn't this your inevitable fate?"

Meng Wan started struggling again, saying, "I'd rather be dead."

Jun Qiyuan was clearly on the verge of collapse, with veins bulging on his forehead.

Hasn't he endured enough these past few days?

She has been on the verge of death several times, and one wrong move could have led to her utter ruin. Why can't she be more considerate of herself?

Murong Xiao saw this and couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.

He's waiting to see someone's face filled with remorse after the secret is revealed!

It would be pointless to break up now.

Having watched the spectacle unfold, he slowly spoke: "This prince has a plan that can not only help you out of your current predicament but also save you from the fate of being forced into marriage alliances. It all depends on whether you are willing to cooperate."

Jun Qiyuan looked incredulous.

He's been racking his brains these past few days, but he still can't come up with a solution. What ideas could he possibly have?

Meng Wan was convinced that he was destined to marry into her family and that there was no possibility of them ever getting together again; otherwise, she would not have hanged herself in despair.

Murong Xiao looked displeased when he saw their questioning expressions.

"Fine, don't believe me then. Just sit here and wait to die!"

"Don't……"

Since things have come to this point, we have no choice but to try anything, even if it seems hopeless.

Could there be a worse outcome than this?

Stop keeping me in suspense and tell me!

A glint of shrewdness flashed in Murong Xiao's eyes. "Isn't that Princess Dongyue still missing? If we can find a way to help her, wouldn't all our problems be solved?"

"But we don't know where the princess is!"

Seeing the look in Murong Xiao's eyes that seemed to regard him as an idiot, he finally realized what was happening.

"you mean……"

Find a fake one to deceive everyone!

Since they're going to resort to deception anyway, aren't the candidates ultimately up to them?

Although Jun Qiyuan was agitated, he did not completely lose his mind.

They know nothing about the princess, so wouldn't it be easy for them to slip up?

Murong Xiao, however, looked as if victory was assured.

The visit of the Eastern Peak and the Western Regions to the Yong Dynasty this time poses a great threat to the Northern Dynasty.

In order to find out their purpose, he secretly planted spies in both sides' delegations to obtain secrets.

That's why he was able to come up with this plan!
