When I followed the third princess to sneak into the side room of the Taiji Palace, while listening carefully to the arguments inside, I also took the opportunity to observe the situation inside.

I saw an extremely burly middle-aged man sitting on the throne high in the Taiji Hall, his unangry and arrogant expression made people feel awe-inspiring at a glance, obviously he was the Demon King.

Although I have all the memories of Ru Meiqing, even if I haven't seen it with my own eyes, I already know what the demon king looks like, but when I really see it at this moment, I feel that I am more domineering, not the gentle and considerate man in Ru Meiqing's memory.

Obviously, the Demon King looks cold and serious in front of the world, but only every time he meets Ru Meiqing, he becomes very gentle and considerate, so that the impression of him in Ru Meiqing's mind has become different.

This is enough to see that the Demon King does prefer Concubine Ru, and I can imagine that the Demon King loves the house and Wu's heart, and he must love the real Nine Princes even more.

I believe that the news that I am back in the palace again, and that I have woken up today, must be the happiest thing for the Demon King in the past ten years.

It's a pity that the real Nine Princes have been gone, I'm just an impostor, maybe one day in the future, the Demon King will be disappointed and regretful when he knows the truth, right?

Maybe the Demon King really didn't want his favorite and optimistic Nine Princes to marry a corpse, so in the Taiji Palace, he always frowned and didn't say a word, allowing the ministers below and the people sent by the ancient family to theorize.

It's just that the ministers are also divided into two factions, one faction is arguing with the people sent by the ancient family.

The other faction is acting as a peacemaker, and whenever the rhetoric is too intense, it will come forward to reconcile, so as not to end up in a stalemate between the two sides.

Obviously, these ministers were sent by the Demon King to persuade the ancient family to give up the marriage contract, but one faction sang red faces and the other sang white faces.

And there were nine people sent by the ancient family, except for the leader who was a white-haired and bearded old man, and the eight guards standing behind him were all wearing black hats and robes, and they were also wearing skull masks on their faces.

It looks eerie and mysterious, and there is even a hint of palpitations.

At that moment, I had already guessed that these eight guards should be the so-called ghost guards that the third princess Youyou mentioned when she introduced the ancient family before.

The eight guards did not open their mouths to argue with the ministers, but divided into two rows, silently guarding a pair of black translucent crystal coffins.

Through the black crystal, you can faintly see a young woman in a red bridal dress lying inside the coffin.

Although I can't see the woman's appearance clearly, I can feel that her appearance is absolutely extraordinary, after all, she is the pearl of a large family, and she has an innate noble temperament.

As for the old man, he looks energetic, fairy-like, and has a Confucian style that reads poetry and books and is full of economy.

When he faced the questioning and difficulties of many ministers, he was still calm, unhurriedly explained his reasons, and fought with reason with the most peaceful mind, obviously not wanting to wronged the woman lying in the coffin at the moment.

He sometimes listened silently to the ministers' opinions, and sometimes retorted appropriately, and whenever the ministers spoke fiercely, he would not be annoyed by it.

Instead, he clearly stated the reason why he insisted on it, and he could immediately make the originally righteous ministers become collectively speechless and look at each other.

From beginning to end, he never put on an aggressive and unforgiving appearance, but put himself in the position of the royal family to make long-term considerations, which made people convincing and difficult to refute.

After listening to it for about a quarter of an hour, I knew that with the current state of affairs, the old man sent by the old family would definitely win.

At that time, I will have to marry the woman in the coffin at night.

So I was also a little irritable in my heart, and I quickly thought about how to come forward to help the demon king resolve this sudden embarrassment.

At the same time, it is also for myself to be worthy of Mrs. Yan Susu in the future.

"What a bunch of rubbish, so many people actually say that it is just an old man! I guess my father is also disappointed at the moment, right? Hey, Brother Feiyang, if you continue like this, you will have to marry the woman in the coffin tonight." What should I do?

Maybe it was because of my serious look, and the third princess next to me whispered uncontrollably.

"Yes, Ninth Prince, why don't you go back and continue to pretend to be asleep? ”

Xin'er also whispered unwillingly.

Even if Brother Feiyang continues to pretend to be unconscious, the old man will definitely ask for a marriage ceremony tonight. It's a big deal to carry Feiyang's younger brother to the coffin, and he can still hold a worship ceremony. ”

The third princess shook her head and retorted in a low voice.

"That's the same, so what should I do? If the Ninth Prince really marries the woman in the coffin tonight, who will dare to marry him in the future? Won't there be no heirs in the future? Besides, the Ninth Prince is very likely to inherit the throne in the future, wouldn't that be a joke for the people of the world?"

Xin'er nodded helplessly and said.

"Shhhhh It seems that my father and the old man heard it!"

When I overheard the Demon King and the old man suddenly looking towards the side room where the three of us were, I hurriedly whispered to stop me.

It's a pity it's still late.

"Isn't it the ninth prince in the side room next door? Why don't you show up and make a statement in person? After all, this is your lifelong event, and the old man will still respect your opinion." ”

The old man sent by the old family said politely and loudly in the direction of the side room.

Hearing the old man's sudden words, the ministers were in an uproar and looked at the side room one after another.

"Oh! It's all because I couldn't help but speak, it's troublesome!"

The third princess regretted herself.

"I'm sorry, the ninth prince, it's all because Xin'er is not good, and it has nothing to do with the third princess. ”

Xin'er also argued with an apologetic face.

"It's okay, what should come will come later, it's better to face it calmly. Let's go, Sister Sanwang, let's say goodbye to my father. By the way, I took the opportunity to deal with this matter. ”

I waved my hand and replied nonchalantly.

After finishing speaking, I pushed open the door of the side room and calmly walked towards the Taiji Hall.

I know that at this point, the old man has said this, and I will look petty if I hide it anymore.

"Okay, Brother Feiyang, no matter what decision you make in the moment, Sister Wang will stand by your side and support you. ”

The third princess replied in a quiet tone.

Subsequently, the third princess Youyou and Xin'er also walked out of the side room behind me.

"My son has seen my father. ”

"Slave and maid, see the Demon King. ”

When the third princess and I came to the Taiji Hall Demon King not far in front of me, after kneeling down, I said respectfully in unison.

"Get up. Gloom, what's going on?"

The Demon King stared at the third princess with some displeasure and asked.

After all, he specially sent someone to tell me to wait for news in my palace with peace of mind, who knew that I actually slipped into the Taiji Hall recklessly, and was discovered on the spot by the old man sent by the ancient family.

This inevitably made him a little embarrassed, so he asked with a gloomy face.

And he understood that it was impossible for me to know the secret passage to the Taiji Palace, and it was obviously the third princess Youyou who brought me into the main hall on her own initiative, so naturally he was a little dissatisfied with the third princess Youyou.

However, I noticed that the Demon King was angry, and when he saw me, his face changed back to his gentle side, and it was clear that he still couldn't bear to blame me for me.

Presumably, I also felt guilty for failing to protect Concubine Ru's mother and son ten years ago, so I was so tolerant of me.

"Father, son, ......"

The third princess looked at the demon king with great embarrassment and explained.

But I was interrupted on the spot.

"Father, this trespass into the Taiji Hall was all begged by the sons and daughters to the three princesses, and it was an expedient measure for the sons to want to sit in on the incident and come forward in person to solve this matter if necessary. After all, this is a lifelong event related to Erchen, and in a moment's urgency, he lost his sense of proportion. Therefore if the father wants to punish him, he should punish only one of his sons. Don't implicate Sister Sanwang. ”

I said solemnly to the Demon King.

"Hey, forget it. If your father understands your feelings, he will not punish you. But you two don't make an example, you know?"

The Demon King sighed, waved his hand, and said in an unquestioning tone.

"Thank you, my son, and I promise never to make the same mistake again. ”

The third princess and I replied in unison.

"Well, my father originally wanted to help you solve this matter, but now that you are here in person, presumably your third sister will also tell you the ins and outs, so this matter will be fully entrusted to you. ”

The Demon King glanced thoughtfully at the crystal coffin and said with a complicated expression.

"The son obeys, please rest assured. ”

I replied confidently.

With that, I turned and walked towards the black crystal coffin.

As I walked towards the black crystal coffin, the entire Tai Chi Hall was silent, and I noticed that the ministers, as well as the old man who spoke well, were staring at me with great interest, obviously wanting to see how I, the client, would deal with the matter.

And my idea is to first check the woman in the crystal coffin to see what caused her sudden illness and died.

and whether she is completely gone, or whether there is still a wisp of remnant soul remaining.

Because the third princess Youyou mentioned before, saying that this ancient family has ghost guards and is also good at spiritism, so I think it is very likely that the woman in the coffin is not completely gone, otherwise it would be meaningless for them to put her in the coffin and send her to the palace to worship with me.

It is not even ruled out that it was after they used spiritism to communicate with the soul of the dead woman that they decided to come to the palace to hold a marriage ceremony.

In view of this possibility, my idea is to find a way to find out the cause of this woman's strange illness first, and see if there is a possibility that she can be saved.

I felt that once I saved her, things would turn around and there would be room for negotiation.

When the time comes, I will have a deep conversation with the resurrected woman in private to gain her understanding, and perhaps the marriage contract will be dissolved.

After all, we both agreed to dissolve the marriage contract, and it was difficult for the two adults to insist any longer.

However, when I came to the black crystal coffin, closed my eyes, and turned on my soul clairvoyance ability to carefully examine the woman in the coffin, I became extremely surprised......
