Chapter 15: Betrayal

"The emperor gave you a marriage and asked you to marry the ninth prince as a concubine. You've only been back to Yanfu for two days, how could the emperor know that you're back? Who is that man? Are you discussing some big plan? Becoming the Ninth Princess is the first step, isn't it? Who are you going to deal with? Don't make trouble for your father!" Yan Juncheng grabbed Yan Junmeng's wrist tightly, and threw questions one after another.

Yan Junmeng was completely overwhelmed by Yan Juncheng's question, she was stunned for a long time, blinked her eyes, and stammered: "Nine...... Princess, ...... The Emperor's ...... Give...... Marriage?"

"Now that the decree has arrived, don't you know?" Yan Juncheng was skeptical.

"Big brother, I turned out to be a bad person in your eyes, a sinner who would do things that would affect the Prime Minister's Mansion!" Yan Junmeng finally digested Yan Juncheng's question, and after understanding, she shook off Yan Juncheng's hand, unwilling to look at him again.

Dare to love her, a good big brother, thinking that she has a purpose in returning to the mansion, that is, to have a suitable identity to marry the ninth prince. And marrying the Ninth Prince is for a big plan, and this big plan may also affect the Prime Minister's Mansion, he was afraid that she would be involved in the Prime Minister's Mansion, so he was so anxious to come over to Xingshi to ask for guilt.

"If it wasn't for your arrangement...... I really can't figure out why the emperor would know that you're back. Yan Juncheng lowered his head and didn't dare to look at Yan Junmeng, and his momentum weakened.

Did he misunderstand her? But he was really afraid that the Prime Minister's Mansion would be implicated, and there were all his most important people here.

"I don't know, I just know that I'm going to marry a man I don't know, and I haven't even seen him...... It was given to him as a gift. Yan Junmeng's eyes were dark, and she walked towards her room with heavy steps.

Yan Juncheng heard Yan Junmeng's words, and he was ashamed at the moment, as Yan Junmeng's brother, he should comfort and persuade her to accept this unfair marriage at this time, but blindly accusing her at this time must have hurt her heart.

"Junmeng, I'...... I shouldn't have said those things to you. Yan Juncheng wanted to apologize to Yan Junmeng, but Yan Junmeng ignored it, went back to the room directly, and closed the door.

Yan Juncheng knew that he made Yan Junmeng sad, which made her worse at this time, and Yan Juncheng stood in place and didn't know what to do.

"Yan Junmeng, come out to receive the order!" Yu shouted as soon as he entered the courtyard.

Yan Junmeng opened the door, walked out as if he was dead, and stood in front of Yu Shi staring coldly at the holy decree.

It was this small piece of paper that turned her into a gift to a stranger, and it was this piece of paper that hastily decided on the events of her life.

"Don't kneel down yet to take orders. Yu Shi saw Yan Junmeng standing there in a daze, so he frowned and said.

Yan Junmeng directly dragged the holy decree from Yu's hand, and turned back to the room without looking back. Seeing that Yan Junmeng was so arrogant, Yu was so angry that he clenched his fists, looked at Yan Junmeng's back and shouted: "Yan Junmeng! I kindly remind you that the ninth prince you are going to marry is a well-known murderer, and he is the emperor's most undesirable brother. ”

Shang Ning's reputation outside is really not very good, he fights on the battlefield every day, he is angry, and he doesn't like to get along with people, and he often walks alone with a cold face. At first, he was a prince because of his good looks, and many people really liked him, but he scared away those young ladies who liked him.

Once, the emperor held a concubine show for him, and he actually asked someone to bring a prisoner over there for interrogation!

His eyes were like bloodthirsty beasts, and just looking at them made people shudder, and slowly he got bigger and bigger, and no one dared to beat him until now.

In fact, there was another reason, he was not favored by the emperor! During the dynasty, his father did not like him, because his mother did not get along with the emperor, and committed suicide after giving birth to him, resulting in this prince having no mother to rely on, and thus offended the emperor. In fact, in the end, what does his mother's death have to do with an innocent child, it's just that the emperor doesn't love his mother, and he doesn't even like this son.

Shang Ning did not have a happy childhood because of this, and formed a loner character, but fortunately, the emperor didn't like him, otherwise he had the ability to live in the palace without his mother to rely on.

And now that the Ling Dynasty is over, his imperial brother and the current emperor still don't like him, according to the rule, the new emperor ascends the throne, and his brother is the prince, at this time, they should be crowned princes and promoted from ordinary princes.

Because the prince is just an honorific title of the emperor's brother, he has no real power in the fief, and he is not even as good as a county king, but his status is higher than that of the county king, but he has no real power at all.

Only when the emperor gave him a title and a fief can he be regarded as having something in his hands, and he deserves it. The other two princes and emperors were all crowned princes and given titles and fiefs. Even those dead princes have been crowned princes, and he is still an ordinary prince, still living in the capital, and everyone can see that the emperor does not want to promote this Nine Emperor brothers.

The people in the court understood that Shang Ning did not like the emperor, so they naturally distanced themselves from him a lot, and also warned the daughter of the family not to have anything to do with Shang Ning.

However, Yan Lian didn't say much to his family, because in his opinion, there was nothing wrong with Shang Ning, but he was not good at getting along with people, and he couldn't go along with others to slander him behind his back. Therefore, Yan Junyan and Yan Junxian, the two people who don't go out of the door, still think that Shang Ning is a prince, and he is a powerful person.

Although the position of the prince is very high, but an unpleasant prince, no matter how good it is, it is useless, not to mention that no one dares to marry him with such a reputation.

That night, in the Nine Princes' Mansion, Xingying took off his shirt, took the medicine bottle and poured some medicine powder on the gauze, and applied medicine to his wound in the mirror, but the wound was in the back, and his flexibility was not very good, so the medicine powder did not touch the wound at all for a long time.

At this moment, the door was suddenly opened, and Xingying turned his head to see that it was Shang Ning coming. Xingying froze in place, looking at Shang Ning suspiciously, and Shang Ning walked over and directly took the gauze from Xingying's hand, then picked up the medicine bottle on the table and personally medicated Xingying.

Starshadow didn't resist, bowing his head and enduring the pain. "Thank you, Lord Wang. ”

"It's so heavy...... "Xingying buried his head even lower after hearing Shang Ning's words.

Shang Ning gently sprinkled the medicine from the medicine bottle on Xingying's back, was silent for a while, and then spoke: "I know it's you ......."

As soon as Xingying heard this, he immediately turned around and knelt down in front of Shang Ning. "Lord Wang! his subordinates are terrified. ”
