Everything starts from Menghualu

Chapter 427 The dust settles and the school is disbanded

"Of course, sir. Our Hui'er is not Ning Er, that girl. She will not lie to me. Since he said so, it must be true." Madam Jiang said

"You, you were just talking, why are you bringing up Ning'er again? I've told you so many times that they are our daughters, why can't you remember?"

"Besides, if it weren't for Xue Ning, we wouldn't be able to solve this problem now. Can you change your temper and be nice to Xue Ning?" Jiang Boyou asked

"Oh, I understand, master. I am worried too. I will be careful in the future. Don't worry. Okay, I have to go out and deal with some things outside." Mrs. Jiang said and left.

Jiang Boyou understood very well that his wife didn't want to listen to him, but it didn't matter. He had gotten used to it over the years.

At this time, Cao Cheng had already returned to the palace. That's right, he did not go home, but went directly into the palace. After all, if he didn't come today, he would be very jealous.

"Husband, why are you here? Did you finish meeting so soon?" Shen Zhiyi said happily.

"Of course it's fast. After all, I didn't want to go in the first place. It was because of your second brother that I wasted time. Otherwise, I could have gone even faster." Cao Cheng said
"By the way, speaking of second brother, you didn't have any conflicts today, right?" Shen Zhiyi asked
"Of course not. Don't worry. We are fine today. It's just that your second brother doesn't like me. I've restrained myself." Cao Cheng said with a smile.

"I'm sorry, husband. Tell me, what do you want? I'll compensate you." Shen Zhiyi said

"Madam, please don't be so polite. But if you want to put it this way, I really have something to ask. Can you marry me sooner?" Cao Cheng asked seriously.
After hearing this, Shen Zhiyi blushed and said after a while, "This kind of thing, this kind of thing, how can you let me say it?"

"Of course, that's right. Uh, it seems so. Let me go and talk to His Majesty. But as for you, Madam, you don't need to attend this class, right?" Cao Cheng said
"Ah? Well, well, okay, I get it. I will finish learning it as soon as possible. Okay, okay, let's not talk about this anymore. It's getting late. You can go back." Shen Zhiyi said

"Madam, are you in such a hurry to get me out? Okay, I'll go. Is it okay for me to go? But I can't leave like this. You have to compensate me." Cao Cheng said
"Well, since you performed so well today, I will give you some rewards. Tell me, what do you want?" Shen Zhiyi said

"I want it, I want it, how about you give me a kiss, madam?" Cao Cheng said
"Ah? What? I don't want it. No, you change it." Shen Zhiyi said shyly.

"But what should I do if I just want this?" After saying that, he took advantage of his wife's inattention and secretly kissed her. When Shen Zhiyi reacted, he had already run away.

Looking at the departing figure, there was no anger on Shen Zhiyi's face, only shyness and aftertaste.

At this time, Cao Cheng, who had taken advantage, naturally left the palace with a smile on his face and returned to Duke Dingguo's Mansion.

Meanwhile, Shen Jie on the other side was drinking with Yan Lin. Although they said they were drinking together, in fact, it was Shen Jie who was drinking most of the time.

"Yan Lin, why? Tell me why? Why are you forcing me? I don't want to be a crown prince, I don't want to marry Xue Shu, I only want Miss Jiang."

"But, but, why are there so many difficulties? Why, why is my mother so cruel? I am also his son? Is the Xue family so important?"

"For Xue Shu, you can't even be my concubine. You can't even do this. Why? Why? Tell me why? Why!" Shen Jie said loudly.

"Your Highness, you've drunk too much. You can't drink anymore. No matter what the reason is, things have come to this. You must cheer up."

"If you continue to sink like this, it won't just be this time. Next time, and the next time, you will still be like this. They still won't let you go." Yan Lin said
"But what should I do? What can I do? I can't do anything." Shen Jie said
"Your Highness, if you really want to do this, then I can help you. Our Yan family can help you. It all depends on what you think. If you accept your fate, then naturally, forget about everything." Yan Lin said
After hearing this, Shen Jie suddenly raised his head and stared at Yan Lin. His expression looked as if he wanted to eat someone, but Yan Lin's eyes did not dodge at all.

After an unknown amount of time, Shen Jie nodded suddenly, then without saying anything, put down his wine glass, staggered to his feet and was about to leave. Yan Lin naturally couldn't let him go back like this.

But this time, Shen Jie refused his request to stay and insisted on going back. This made Yan Lin realize that the prince in front of him seemed to have really changed, so he did not continue to try to keep him.

However, this change does not seem to be bad news for their family. After all, the reason why the Xue family did this is nothing more than wanting the position of queen.

To achieve this, they must support King Linzi to ascend the throne. However, the current King Linzi is obviously very dissatisfied with the Xue family, and this is their Yan family's opportunity.

After figuring this out, he got up and went straight to his father's room, and told his father everything.

"Hmm? Lin'er, you did a good job this time. This matter is indeed a very good opportunity for our family. It has a great chance of success." Yan Mu said
"Father, if we can take advantage of the Xue family's help and successfully board this ship, then we will have a certain degree of security in the future." Yan Lin said
"Yes, but we can't be careless. After all, if we can think of this kind of thing, there is no reason why the Xue family can't think of it, so we still have to be careful." Yan Mu said
"Well, I understand, father. I will be careful." Yan Lin said in a deep voice
Yan Mu nodded directly after hearing this, and then said, "Okay, you go back and rest first."

After hearing this, Yan Lin nodded directly and left the study. After he left, a relieved smile appeared on Yan Mu's face.

Time quickly came to the next day, and Shen Zhiyi actually went to find her royal brother.

"What? You want me to hurry up the wedding date? Can you tell me why?" Shen Lang said
"Oh, my brother, don't you know why? Jiang Xuehui's incident has caused such a big stir. If this is delayed any further, will I still have the face I want?"

"If I lose face, then our royal family loses face, don't you think so, brother?" Shen Zhiyi said

"Haha, that's enough, stop talking so much. I'll have someone go and urge the Ministry of Rites, okay?" Shen Lang nodded helplessly after hearing this.
"Okay, okay, that's great. I know you love me the most, brother." Shen Zhiyi said

"You, stop it, I don't know you little girl? Okay, go back quickly, since you don't plan to go to class, then say goodbye quickly." Shen Lang said with a smile

After hearing this, Shen Zhiyi turned around and left. Shen Lang looked at her departing figure and a smile appeared on his face. As for the reason, it was naturally because he also hoped that the marriage would be completed sooner.

Because as long as Jiang Xuehui didn't enter Cao Cheng's house, there would always be changes in this matter, and what he least wanted now was changes. Although he couldn't stop his brother from marrying Xue Shu, he could use this opportunity to split the power of the Xue family, so he could still accept it.

After Shen Zhiyi returned to her own bedroom, she immediately asked someone to find Jiang Xuening and told her what happened.

"Your Highness, what did you say? You said you don't want to learn anymore?" Jiang Xue Ning asked

"Yes, you also know this. After what happened to your sister, how could I have the energy to learn these things? I have already asked my brother to urge the Ministry of Rites."

"I think my wedding date will be moved forward a lot, so I can't take this class anymore. Ningning, I asked you to come here this time because I want to talk to you about this matter."

"Also, when you go back, please tell your sister a few words for me. I'm actually very easy to talk to. As long as she doesn't go too far, I can still tolerate her."

"Ningning, I remember you told me that your sister is a very sensible person. I hope she can understand. If she doesn't understand, then I can only..." Shen Zhiyi said directly

Although the princess didn't finish her words, Jiang Xuening heard them clearly, so he naturally hurriedly said, "Your Highness, don't worry. I promise that she will never dare to do anything reckless."

"Haha, okay, since you said so, then I believe you. Okay Ningning, let's stop here and we won't talk about these unhappy things anymore." Shen Zhiyi said

After hearing this, Jiang Xuening was naturally knowledgeable and interested, so they started talking about other things.

But Xie Wei was not in such a good mood at this time. After all, he had some arrangements in the palace that had not been completed, and now it was suddenly about to end, which really caught him off guard.

"Sir, everything has been arranged, but we still have a long way to go before it ends. I'm afraid it won't be so easy when the time comes." Dao Qin said
"Well, I know that, but there's nothing we can do. The princess was the one who brought up the matter of attending the class, and now that she doesn't want to go anymore, there's nothing we can do."

"Tell them to stop everything and hide themselves. No one is allowed to move without my order. Don't act rashly." Xie Wei said
"Okay, I understand sir, I will go inform them right away." Dao Qin said and left.

"What did you say? You said Shen Jie has been conspiring with Yan Mu frequently these days?" Cao Cheng asked in surprise
"That's right, Lord Marquis, this news is absolutely true. After you visited the Jiang family, every time Prince Linzi went to the Yan family, he didn't go to see the Prince of Yan, but to see Lord Marquis of Yan." Zhou Yinzhi said

"Oh? Does anyone else know this news?" Cao Cheng said
"Not yet, Lord. I discovered this by accident, so no one knows about it yet. I am here to wait for your next instructions." Zhou Yinzhi said.

"Well, not bad, not bad, very good, you have done a great job, don't worry, your contribution will never be forgotten, just wait patiently, there will be benefits for you." Cao Cheng said
After hearing this, Zhou Yinzhi was naturally moved. As for his true thoughts, no one knew it, but Cao Cheng didn't care about it.

"As we said before, go and tell Jiang Xuening about this and see how she reacts. Then report to me what she asked you to do." Cao Cheng ordered.
After hearing this, Zhou Yinzhi naturally had no right to refuse, so he knelt on one knee, then stood up and left. After he left, Cao Cheng fell into deep thought.

After all, the development of things now is somewhat different from what he expected. What is happening before his eyes is the most obvious change. It seems that Jiang Xuehui's incident has aroused Shen Jie's rebellious spirit.

I just don't know how strong Shen Jie's resistance is, and how long he can hold out? However, from the current point of view, this matter is good for him.

After all, if Shen Jie had always been honest, how could he make Shen Jie unlucky? He had no habit of indulging his enemies.

What he always pursues is a direct solution, and it is best to kill it in the bud.

And as Shen Lang urged the Ministry of Rites at the morning court, the wedding date of Cao Cheng and the princess was really brought forward. This was very good news for Cao Cheng.

But this also means that he has to start getting busy. After all, he is marrying a princess, and the etiquette and rules are numerous and complicated.

And it was from this time on that the princess's elementary school was officially disbanded, and all her companions returned home, naturally including Jiang Xuening.

After returning home, Jiang Xuening naturally had to do what the princess asked her to do, so she went straight to her sister's room.

Jiang Xuehui was not surprised at her arrival, but asked directly, "You came to see me, is there something the princess wants you to tell me?"

"Yes, you guessed it right. The princess did have something for me to tell you. She said that as long as you don't go too far, she can still tolerate you."

"I promised her, so you don't have to worry, but I want to know what you really think?" Jiang Xue Ning said solemnly.
"Hmm? At this point, does it matter what I think?" Jiang Xuehui said

"Of course it is important. It is very important. You have to know that according to the current situation, Shen Jie is very likely to succeed."

"Your thoughts at that time will determine many things, so I want to ask you, what are you thinking?" Jiang Xue Ning said

"What happens to him in the future has nothing to do with me. I won't do anything." Jiang Xuehui said

"Haha, you can't fool me. It would be fine if the matter was not made clear, but now that things have come to this point, there is no way you can forget it."

"Well, I won't ask you these questions. You won't answer me even if I ask. I just want to tell you that any decision you make in the future will affect many things."

"So I hope that no matter what happens in the future, you will treat it carefully and don't make decisions too easily." Jiang Xuening said
