Chapter 216 Suspicion
The words "uncle" fell heavily on Su Yuming's heart, why didn't he understand the meaning of Fu Xiuyun's words?

It is precisely because he is the emperor's uncle that he can speak here safely.If it were someone else, from the moment Su Lingxi yelled not to marry, their Su family would be over.

Su Yuming took a deep breath, bowed and bowed: "Your Majesty, my daughter was confused for a while and spoke out, please forgive me. Marriage is the order of the parents, the words of the matchmaker, and the marriage is the blessing of the little girl, so why not?" Would you like to say something?"

"Father." Su Lingxi wanted to say something, but Su Yuming pulled her to kneel down.

Su Yuming's eyes were filled with gloom, and he lowered his voice and threatened: "If you want to implicate the entire Yuguo Palace, then just resist the edict!"

Su Lingxi bit her lower lip, her body was shaking.She tried to ask the Queen Mother for help, but when she saw those indifferent and disappointed eyes, she suddenly understood what it meant to be beyond redemption.Everything went so smoothly tonight, how could it gradually evolve into what it is now?
When did she fall into this huge trap by mistake?
——When Shen Xuhuai followed Xiaotang to Lanzhao Palace, or when Fu Mingjue stepped into Zhaoyang Palace, or when Mrs. Wu stumbled into Huayang Palace?

All these seem to be related in the dark, but Su Lingxi can't tell the truth.She didn't dare to look at Fu Mingjue, she was in such a mess at this moment, it was simply unsightly compared to Ling Youyao.The reputation that was once painstakingly maintained was once shattered, and now there is nothing else except the identity of Miss Yuguo's Mansion.

Su Lingxi twitched the corners of her mouth stiffly, trying to give a nice smile, but no matter what she did, she couldn't do it like before.

She finally gave in.

Fu Xiuyun ordered someone to draw up a marriage edict on the spot, but the queen mother didn't say a word from the beginning to the end, it seemed that she had completely given up on Su Lingxi.

When the imperial decree was handed over to Su Lingxi, she only kowtowed to thank her calmly, without any expression on her face.

Holding the imperial decree, Mrs. Wu was stunned for a long time, but her mind was still dizzy.

Fortunately, Fu Mingjue reminded at this time: "Could it be that Madam is overjoyed, why don't you thank me?"

"Oh! Yes, yes, yes" Wu Shi came to his senses, pulled Liu Hongxin to say a series of words of gratitude, and then it was over.

This year's New Year's Eve is destined to be unforgettable, not only the scandal of Su Lingxi and Liu Hongxin, but also His Majesty's attitude towards Duke Yu's Mansion.

Although Fu Xiuyun ordered that no one should be allowed to publicize what happened tonight, but it was still unavoidable that some people would discuss behind his back that Su Lingxi's reputation in the capital was ruined.

When the Empress Dowager left Huayang Palace, she shook her sleeves and left without looking at Su Lingxi.Fu Xiuyun knew that the Queen Mother was angry, so he took a deep look at Fu Mingjue, and heeled up.

After everyone left, Ling Youyao asked Fu Mingjue: "Did you say something to His Majesty?"

Fu Mingjue took her hand and walked out, saying: "This king didn't say anything, it all depends on your elder brother to deal with His Majesty."

Ling Youyao was stunned for a moment, and asked, "Could it be that my brother already knew that Su Lingxi would act tonight?"

"Whether he knows or not, I don't know, but what I can be sure of is that Yuguo Guild's agreement to this marriage probably has something to do with your elder brother."

Ling Qingyan seems to be unscrupulous, but in fact, he sees more clearly than anyone else.

Duke Yuguo only puts interests first, and Su Lingxi is just a pawn related to blood in his eyes.Now this pawn has annoyed His Majesty and lost the favor of the Empress Dowager, so it is worthless.Letting Su Lingxi marry to Uncle Zhongyi's mansion, there is still a little room for maneuver, it is better than sending her into a nunnery.

It was because Ling Qingyan saw Su Yuming's weakness that Su Lingxi was helpless to fight back.

After a short pause, Fu Mingjue said again: "Not only Duke Yu, but also the Wu family."

"Wu?" Ling Youyao asked in surprise.

"Liu Hongxin is the lifeblood of the Wu family. Whenever Liu Hongxin is involved, she will lose her composure. That's why she rushed to break down the door of Huayang Hall before her mother. The Wu family always hated Yuguo's mansion, but now With such a good opportunity in front of her, how could she miss it?"

The corners of Fu Mingjue's lips twitched, and he sighed softly with a smile: "Compared to Duke Yu, Wu's temperament is straightforward, so it's easier to use."

"." The corners of Ling Youyao's eyes twitched, each one was more sophisticated than the other, full of calculations, it was difficult for anyone to escape.

Fu Mingjue squeezed her palm, and said: "I was crying and complaining to the king before, but now it's as you wished, you should be happy."

Seeing the smile in his eyes, Ling Youyao blushed, pulled her hand out angrily, and muttered: "Who is crying and complaining? What I said is obviously the truth"

"Well, this king was too worried before and let Su Lingxi take advantage of loopholes, so..." He stretched out his hand to pull him back, and then leaned over and whispered in Ling Youyao's ear.

When the latter heard this, he was startled for a moment, but when he realized it, he stepped back abruptly as if he had been frightened, his cheeks couldn't help but blush.

"You, you" She looked at Fu Mingjue, unable to utter a complete sentence for a long time.

Fu Mingjue pulled him away with a low smile, as if nothing had happened, and only said: "If you don't leave the palace, it will be too late. If you have anything to say, go back and talk about it."

Although the winter night was cold, Ling Youyao felt her face was very hot, but she kept thinking about what Fu Mingjue said just now in her mind——

'So, you care so much about Su Lingxi, are you jealous? '

Jealous?

She was clearly worried that staying with Su Lingxi would become a serious problem in the future, how could it be jealousy?Ling Youyao confirmed the answer without any hesitation.

Fu Mingjue caught a glimpse of her frowning and tangled appearance, and the smile deepened at the corner of her mouth.

The long lights are all down, and the snowy night is quiet.

Ling Qingyan looked at the two figures that were fading away at the end of the palace wall, and said with emotion: "In the past, on New Year's Eve, I would take Yao'er to Yongding River to watch the fireworks. Although I watched it in the palace today, I still feel less Something happened."

"Shen Chao, do you think so?"

Shen Xuhuai still looked into the distance, his eyes were perplexed, "Really."

"Everyone is gone, let's go back too." After finishing speaking, he raised his foot and wanted to leave.

Shen Xuhuai did not move.

Ling Qingyan stopped and looked back at him, feeling helpless, "You saw it with your own eyes at Lanzhao Hall tonight, Yao'er believes in Fu Mingjue very much now, don't let yourself be trapped."

He smiled self-deprecatingly, and said, "You don't need to remind me again, I just didn't want to understand something."

"Okay, okay, don't think about it," Ling Qingyan hooked his shoulders and walked out, "I don't even have the heart to eat properly because of you today. I'm hungry right now, and you have to invite me while it's still early." Have another meal."

Shen Xuhuai said calmly, "Where are you going?"

"I've been to Tianxiang Pavilion too many times, and I'm tired of the dishes. Why don't we go to Qianzhen Pavilion? I always heard Yao'er mention it in the past, and it happens to be free today, so let's go and have a look."

Ling Qingyan was chattering on and on, but Shen Xuhuai's thoughts had already drifted far away.

In the past, whenever Ling Youyao saw Fu Mingjue, she would hide behind him in fear.That kind of fear comes from the bottom of her heart, but now Ling Youyao trusts Fu Mingjue extremely, even relies on her.

Shen Xuhuai did not believe that a person would change so quickly in just half a year, something must have happened
He stopped suddenly, stared at Ling Qingyan, and said, "Qingyan, let me ask you, did anything happen to Yao'er before she married Fu Mingjue?"

Ling Qingyan was startled, the smile on his face gradually disappeared
 To review, Yaoer once threw herself into the lake before marrying Xiaoqi
