"Fathers and mothers don't need to be too enthusiastic, just treat them coldly. As long as they are allowed to eat, time is enough."
This is only natural. All Chu Yunxi needs is time.
"Then it depends on whether he still has the nerve to come."
General Chu felt that Chu Yunxi's plan might have forgotten the most important step, and maybe Jun Hongyan would not take Chu Xueer back home at all.
"He will come. He has worked hard for the military power in his father's hands. Now he has an honest opportunity to win over him. How can he let it go?"
She knows Jun Hongyan too well. In order to achieve his goals, etiquette, justice and integrity are not worth mentioning in his eyes. The winner is the king and the loser is the bandit. In order to ascend to the throne, human nature can be discarded.
Early the next morning, An Ling'er dressed up beautifully. I felt pity for him, so I came to the General's Mansion to hide from others.
Chu Yunxi took her to a side room and handed her an exquisite white dress.
"Put on this one."
An Ling'er took it, and a burst of fragrance hit her nose. "This is it?"
"The color that King An likes, the scent that King An likes."
Maybe he is too dirty at heart and prefers these elegant things.
An Ling'er changed her clothes obediently. As expected, the white dress looked even more fresh and refined.
"How are you going to convince King An?" Chu Yunxi asked.
"I, I am ready to commit myself to King An."
An Ling'er whispered that after all, she was still a woman who had not left the court, and she was not that thick-skinned.
"No, this won't work." Chu Yunxi shook his head.
"Wang An is certainly lustful, but he will not be blinded by lust. You have to use more tempting reasons to convince him."
"Then, what's the good reason?" An Ling'er didn't know what else she had that was worthy of Prince An's request.
"You have to tell him that Yongkang Bo and his wife want to get on a stable ship. They are interested in the prince, and you admire King An. Marriage is the best way to tie the two parties together. And Yongkang Bo has only one daughter.
It’s you, An Ling’er.”
An Ling'er did not expect that to seduce a man, it is not to use a woman's beauty and body, but to exchange benefits. Chu Yunxi's voice instantly woke her up.
"You can represent Yongkang's residence and even help Prince An win over the second prince. As long as he is willing to cut through the knot quickly and bring you into the residence in a sedan chair, you will help him wholeheartedly."
"Aren't you making enemies for the prince by doing this?"
An Ling'er was confused again, why did Chu Yunxi pass the power of the second prince to Prince An like this?
"An Ling'er, don't ever take yourself too seriously. Get ready. When King An comes, I will send someone to call you. By the way, don't ever mention the fact that I helped you, otherwise, you
All we can do is draw water from a bamboo basket but in vain."
Chu Yunxi left after leaving these words. What the world thought and what happened behind his back were always two different things. Let Duke Xiao and Prince An regard the second prince as their own, which would protect the second prince very well.
After all, in the last life, the second prince placed a bet on the prince. Although it was for his own sake, the second prince had a firm mind and would not change easily if he knew a certain path. He was a good ally.
An Ling'er was stunned on the spot. What did Chu Yunxi's last words mean?
As Chu Yunxi expected, Jun Hongyan came with Chu Xueer.
Seeing General Chu and Mrs. Chu saluting, Chu Xueer's lips curled up slightly. The imperial power was not something that a general could compete with.
Also saluting was a woman in a plain white dress. Chu Xueer took one more look and recognized her. Isn't this An Ling'er, who just broke off her engagement with Chu Wenzhong a few days ago?
"An Ling'er? Why are you here?"
Now she is very curious about anyone who can cause trouble for the Chu family.
"My little daughter, I'm here to congratulate King An on his wedding to Princess An."
An Ling'er raised her head, looked at Jun Hongyan with admiring eyes, and then lowered her head slightly.
Jun Hongyan looked her up and down. She had an elegant and refined temperament from head to toe. This woman seemed to be interested in him?
"I wonder which lady you are from?" Jun Hongyan asked with raised eyebrows.
"My little girl's father is Yongkang Bo."
An Ling'er's eyes flickered on Jun Hongyan's face for a moment, and then she lowered her head shyly at the right time. His father had no real power, and the second prince was outside the fiefdom, so she would not be invited to the palace banquet. She and Prince An also
I only met her once when I was a child, so it was natural not to recognize her.
Yongkang Bo, the maternal family of the second prince? Jun Hongyan raised his lips playfully.
Chu Xueer understood very well what An Ling'er's look meant.
She once captured Jun Hongyan's heart with this look of admiration and obsession. Is An Ling'er trying to climb onto the high branch of Jun Hongyan instead of being able to climb up to Chu Wenzhong? Oh, or in front of him?
Her face as Princess An?
"What is your identity? Do you need to congratulate me? Even if I want to congratulate you, it's Yongkang Bo. You, a woman in a boudoir, dare to show your face in front of a foreign man without knowing the rules! And what's the look in your eyes? In front of me.
Do you want to seduce Prince An in front of me, the princess?"
Chu Xueer showed no mercy to An Ling'er, but how dared an Earl's Mansion step on the face of her majestic princess?
An Ling'er now finally knows what a ruthless character Chu Yunxi said Princess An was, but she, An Ling'er, is not someone to be bullied.
"My lord, you are a noble man and you are aloof. My daughter has never dared to expect that. I am also happy for you when I find out that you are getting married. I think I can say congratulations to you in person, which is enough. My daughter does not have what the princess said.
Those thoughts.”
Chu Xueer was already furious. An Ling'er didn't seem to say anything, but in fact he said everything.
These are all tricks that she, Chu Xueer, has used badly. Now that she is a princess, she still has to watch others use the same tricks to seduce her man. How can she bear it?
She stepped forward and slapped An Ling'er hard on the face.
"Ah!" An Ling'er fell to the ground, sobbing secretly.
"Princess, please calm down. Ling'er did not know where he offended the princess?"
She looks so weak and pitiful like that.
Jun Hongyan likes women to be obsessed with him and look up to him. Now that An Ling'er has come to his door, he should enjoy it.
Chu Xueer looked at Chu Yunxi at the side with hatred. She stood up straight from beginning to end. An Ling'er, was Chu Yunxi the one who wanted to disgust her?
"Sister, you haven't married into the East Palace yet, but I am already Princess An. Shouldn't my sister know the etiquette?"
General Chu and Mrs. Chu's faces darkened. They were forced to salute because of their status. Xi'er was Chu Xue'er's sister-in-law, and her father-in-law was her future emperor's wife. How could such status be used for Chu Xue'er?
Son salutes.
Chu Yunxi smiled, raised her slender white hands, and revealed the exquisite phoenix jade bracelet under her cuffs.
"A few days ago, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince told me that anyone who sees a phoenix jade bracelet is like seeing the late queen."
Chu Yunxi turned her wrist and continued:
"I originally thought that if the water in the well does not interfere with the water in the river, then forget it. Since you have such a general understanding, you must know the etiquette of visiting the late empress? Then pay your respects.
Chu Yunxi, she actually used a dead thing to suppress her. The anger on Chu Xueer's face turned into grievance, and she leaned against Jun Hongyan.
"Your Majesty."
The coquettish voice made Chu Yunxi almost spit out his breakfast.
"We are all a family. Wouldn't it be troublesome to salute each other? Father-in-law, why don't we go into the house and talk."
Jun Hongyan bent down and stretched out his hand: "Miss An, please get up too. I accept your wishes."
