Hearing his words, the people below held their breath and waited for the answer.

"I remember that Wei Wan, the daughter of Lord Wei, is at a young age, has outstanding talents, and is really the best candidate for harmony." Gu Yuanzhen looked at Master Wei with a smile.

The ministers were stunned, they didn't seem to expect him to choose such a person, no matter from which point of view, Wei Wan is not a suitable candidate, not to mention the rebellion a few days ago, just because of General Wei's love for this granddaughter, they will definitely not agree to this matter.

Others don't know what he thinks in his heart, but the second prince knows that he just wants to use the matter of friendship to deter General Wei and warn him that even if he holds great power, he must rely on the royal family to survive.

It's just that he has imagined many methods in his heart, but he didn't expect to use this, but it's okay, the baby granddaughter is married, and there will definitely be a gap between the two.

Of course, Wei Wan was reluctant in her heart, but her father didn't say anything, and she couldn't go out at this time to show her intentions, once she refused the emperor's request in front of so many people, she knew very well what it meant.

Mrs. Wei couldn't control her red eyes, and she wanted to stand up, but was pulled down by General Wei.

Bai Xiyue suddenly understood the strange feeling before, at the moment when the emperor asked Wei Wan to go and kiss, everything was connected together, she was in a state of confusion, and she only hoped that it was her own conjecture.

Seeing that Lord Wei didn't react for a long time, Gonggong Xia immediately reminded: "Lord Wei, this is a great honor, and it is a good thing for the benefit of your family, so don't come over and thank you." ”

Everyone's eyes were on Master Wei, only to see him hesitate for a moment, stand up tremblingly, and respectfully thank him.

The emperor was very satisfied with his attitude, and did not make too many difficulties, so he let him go back.

After a while, the emperor said that he was ill, asked the prince to stay with everyone, and left first, Nan Chuanli was not angry because of this, and still smiled gently.

After the emperor left, the rest of the people were relieved, no longer holding the shelf as just now, and really started talking at that time, because they were all acquaintances, and they inevitably had to negotiate and expand their circle.

Wei Wan sat in place, her head down, not knowing what she was thinking, Bai Xiyue walked over and patted her shoulder, "I'm sorry." ”

She smiled bitterly, "Why apologize, this is the emperor's decision, we are not wrong, it is him who is wrong, and the person who is wrong is the person who framed us behind our back." ”

Saying that, she raised her head, her eyes were already full of tears, and she stubbornly refused to let it fall, "Xiyue, I don't want to go and kiss, but if I don't go, the emperor will do something to the Wei family, what should I do." ”

Her voice was crying, and her face was also a fragile look that she had never seen before, seeing her like this, Bai Xiyue felt even more guilty in her heart, if she had found out earlier, would she not have come to this step.

But now no matter how much she says, it won't help, she returned to her seat in despair, Gu Yichen has not come back yet, she is very upset, she picked up the wine jug on the table, and drank it one after another, she wanted to forget the thoughts in her head, it was best never to remember.

Nan Chuan, who was closest to her, noticed her unusual behavior, walked up to her, and asked softly, "Princess Regent, what's the matter, although this wine is good, but it has stamina, it's better not to be greedy." ”

As he spoke, he took the flask in her hand away, without the slightest intention of avoiding suspicion.

Bai Xiyue glanced up at her and snorted coldly, "I don't need you to take care of my affairs yet, and I advise you, in the Tianyuan Kingdom, stay away from people and things related to the regent, otherwise you will get into trouble." ”

"Oh, yes, how do I think, maybe I'll be an exception, this kind of thing has always been uncertain." Instead of getting angry, he teased himself.

But she didn't have the heart to joke at all now, so she took back the flask and said angrily: "Then you go to the regent, what are you doing here, I can't give you any benefits." ”

Nan Chuanli was stunned by her sudden temper, she still looked gentle and lovely during the day, how could she drink wine, but she became a little wild cat.

The two of them were not talking too loudly, and in this noisy banquet, they would not attract anyone's attention at all, not including those who had a heart, of course.

The crown prince was one of them, and he had stayed to entertain the envoys from the south, so of course he would pay attention to his every move, and when he saw that they were arguing, he immediately came over.

"Nan Gongzi, are you not used to drinking the wine of Tianyuan Kingdom, I have specially prepared, the special wine in the south, how about tasting it." He didn't like this person to be too close to Xiyue , and the presence of strangers around her would always bring danger, which he didn't want to see .

Nan Chuanli smiled, "I like your wine very much, the entrance is soft and sweet, and I will know what the benefits of that wine are when I drink it." After speaking, he deliberately glanced at Bai Xiyue.

The prince's face changed, and his tone was not as kind as just now, "Nan Gongzi, she is not someone you can mess with, it is better to stay away, otherwise, even the emperor of Tianyuan Kingdom may not be able to protect you." ”

Bai Xiyue didn't notice the open and secret fight between the two men at all, and kept silent in her own world.

At this moment, the regent returned, and when he came, a certain little girl had already drunk three jugs of wine, and if the prince had not stopped her, the fourth pot would have entered her stomach.

Gu Yichen's face was not very good-looking, especially when he saw these two people surrounding Bai Xiyue, the anger they exuded made the surrounding air cold.

He leaned down, picked him up, and left the banquet.

All the way to the gate of the palace, I saw him come out with the princess in my arms, and I was so nervous that I couldn't wait to come forward and bring someone over.

Fortunately, the carriage stopped at the gate of the palace, and watching the two of them get into the carriage, he breathed a sigh of relief, why didn't the prince know to take care of himself, in case,,,,

Gu Yichen frowned and put the person on the cushion, Bai Xiyue was silent and did not speak, and she didn't know what she was thinking when she lowered her head.

He rubbed her hair, originally wanted to reprimand, but seeing that she was so well-behaved, the words of myopia suddenly came to his lips and he couldn't say it.

"Why do you drink ?" He asked.

But the little girl didn't move, and she didn't even give him a look, even if her head was dull, he knew that the situation was wrong.

Lifting her chin with her hand, forcing the two to look at each other, her gaze full of indifference and questioning.

He was stunned for a moment, "What's going on, tell me." ”

"Lord Wang, did you already know that the emperor would send Wei Wan and his relatives, and you took advantage of the rebellion to set up such a big situation, why in the end?"

Bai Xiyue questioned him, even if he had a conjecture in his heart, he still wanted to hear him say it himself.

"You all know, this time the reaction was quite fast, and I wanted to hide it from you for a while." He spoke calmly, without any meaning to explain.

"Yes, I know, when you saw those assassins from Xiangguo Temple, you had already thought about what to do next, spy on the second prince, pretending to help the Wei family, you don't want to go to Wei Wan as soon as possible, just want the second prince to forge evidence of the Wei family's rebellion, arousing the emperor's suspicion."

"At the critical time, let me debunk the truth of the letter, and then reveal the news to the second prince, so that he is in a hurry to attack to persuade the emperor, even his failure you expected, Wei Wan was released naturally, I was naïve at the time, you just want the Wei family to owe you a favor, until today, the emperor asked her to go to kiss, I understand that you and the second prince have the same purpose, that is, to make the Wei family and the emperor turn against each other, weaken the emperor's power, and achieve their own goals. ”

"I'm right."

She told the story word by word, and there was indeed no mistake in the slightest.

Gu Yichen smiled, cold and cruel, "You're right, you can guess the ins and outs of things just by today's incident, I seem to have underestimated your cleverness." ”

Hearing her admit it herself, Bai Xiyue was even more puzzled in her heart, and she couldn't understand his approach, "Why, even if you want to provoke the relationship between the Wei family and the emperor, with your ability, there are 1,100,000 methods, why do you want to use this one, why sacrifice Wei Wan to achieve your own goals, Wei Qing is still in the dark by you, can you feel at ease by doing this." ”

"Yue'er, you will understand in the future, I can't guarantee it now, so I can't explain anything, but you have to know that no matter what, no matter when, I won't do anything to hurt you." Gu Yichen didn't tell him about his next preparations, because he was full of uncertainty, so he couldn't give her hope first.

"I want to know now, and I want to know why you're doing this." Bai Xiyue didn't want to listen to the so-called future, in the whole thing, she was also used, what made her feel the most painful was that she had also been pushing to write the whole thing, if Gu Yichen was the main culprit, how could she not be an accomplice.

"Yue'er, in the political struggle, it is inevitable that there will be sacrifices, it is impossible for everyone to be happy, if I want to grasp the power, I have to lay out to calculate, otherwise, we will be calculated by others, let others slaughter."

Although I can't tell her now, I don't want to see her in pain.

Of course Bai Xiyue understands this truth, when she killed someone for the first time, she locked herself in the house for a day and a night, not daring to sleep, and when she closed her eyes, she was the hideous face of the person before she died, and a senior told her this at that time, so there was Bai Yueyue who killed people without blinking.

However, she never did this to her friends, she didn't expect that Gu Yichen was the most ruthless one, even if he was his loyal subordinate, he could still calculate without changing his face, and he didn't have the slightest intention of repentance.

"Will there be a day when I will also become a victim of your struggle, and when the time comes, will you also calmly analyze the pros and cons as you do now, without emotion?"
