A month later, Xie Yun Chen woke up early in the morning. He put on his court robes and went to the court to attend the morning assembly.
Ever since he had recovered from the poison and became a sickly person, he had not attended the morning court session. The Emperor had even issued a special imperial edict to exempt Xie Yunchen from the morning court session. Since that day, Xie Yunchen had not been seen in the court. Now, when the officials saw Xie Yunchen suddenly appear, they could not help but be shocked. They did not understand why Xie Yunchen would suddenly appear here.
Everyone was trying to guess Xie Yun's intentions, and they were all terrified and uneasy. Although Xie Yunchen's body was not as strong as before, it still could not change the scruples that the officials had towards him.
Many people in important positions had not died in the hands of the Emperor, but in the hands of Xie Yunchen. Moreover, the Emperor did not care about it and allowed him to do whatever he wanted. Under his slaughter, there were even people who tried to impeach him, but in the end, they had no choice but to leave it unsettled.
As for the reason, it was all because of the corruption evidence in his hands that could affect their lives. Anyone who tried to impeach him would see the evidence of their corruption in the court the next day. In the end, Xie Yunchen was not impeached, but they themselves suffered!
How many people were honest in the officialdom? Greed had turned them from righteous new officials into corrupt officials blinded by greed!
The officialdom was like a big dye vat. There was no one who was not greedy, but it depended on whether you were greedy or not! They wanted to see if the Emperor and the Eldest Prince were willing to let them be greedy. Once their greed went too far, they would be the ones in trouble!
Just as the officials were looking at Xie Yunchen, who was standing at the head of the table, as if they were sitting on pins and needles, Xie Yunchen's next move made the officials 'eyes drop. At the same time, they could not help but sigh in relief.
The first thing Xie Yunchen said after meeting the Emperor was not to pay his respects, nor was it to discuss state affairs. Instead, he asked for an imperial edict to bestow marriage on himself!
Xie Yun Chen was still young. Although his health was not very good, he was still a young man. In the Prince's mansion, there was only one person who had just married into the mansion. The daughter of the Prime Minister was the main concubine. Compared to other Prince's mansions, his family was indeed a little less. It was not too much for him to come to the Emperor to bestow a marriage.
However, the most puzzling thing was that the woman who had caused Xie Yunchen to go through so much trouble and drag her sick body to ask for the imperial edict was actually an extra maid in the residence. Her status was very low.
However, Xie Yunchen had a good reputation. It was all thanks to this servant that he recovered so quickly when he was seriously ill. In order not to mistreat her, he had come to ask for an edict to avoid the trouble of the main consort in her residence in the future!
When Xie Yunchen finished speaking, all the officials in the court looked at him. They sighed in their hearts that the usually decisive wangye was actually so muddle-headed!
They all had a wishful thinking in their hearts. It was just a maidservant, and Xie Yunchen had already become so muddle-headed. If they found a peerless beauty to send over in the future, wouldn't it make this prince indulge in the fragrance of women all day long? Wouldn't they not have to be so careful in the future?
Their wishful thinking could be said to be very meticulous. Their faces could not help but reveal a smug expression, and the one who was the most smug was Lord Four.
When he heard the name of the maid in Xie Yunchen's residence, he knew that the woman was the spy he had sent in. If that woman could win Xie Yunchen's favor, wouldn't he obtain a lot of information that no one else knew?
The Fourth Prince did not hide his joy at all. The Prime Minister, Lan Ao, who was standing at the side, had an extremely ugly expression. Xie Yunchen's actions were undoubtedly a slap to his face. He was clearly telling everyone in the court that his daughter had fallen out of favor!
Seated on the dragon throne, the emperor seemed to have not seen the wonderful expressions of the crowd. He solemnly agreed to Xie Yunchen's request and drafted an imperial edict. Under the name of Chongxi, he granted Xie Yunchen and the woman called Yan Ning a marriage and found an auspicious day to marry.
After today's incident, Yu Nanyu used Xie Yunchen's words in the court to spread the news. Most of the people said that the servant had turned from a crow into a phoenix overnight and flew to the branches. It was a pity for Xie Yunchen's consort.
In a remote courtyard of the Prince's mansion, a woman with a rather exquisite appearance was sitting by the window, looking at the scenery outside. Her smooth long hair was scattered behind her head, and she was wearing a white inner garment, revealing her figure. Her hands and feet were chained, making her unable to move. If one looked carefully, one would realize that this woman was the servant girl who had eavesdropped on Xie Yunchen's words that day, but was captured by Xie Yunchen as an assassin!
With a creak, the door was pushed open by a pair of slender hands.
The first thing that came into view was a pair of white boots inlaid with gemstones. He was wearing a moon-white robe with bright patterns embroidered on it. It was obvious that it was embroidered by a top embroiderer. His slightly pale face looked a little unhealthy, as if he had been ill for a long time.
There was no expression on his handsome face, and there was no emotion in his eyes. His long, ink-like hair was casually tied up with a band, and there was an invisible hint of laziness.
"Have you gotten used to living here for the past few days?”The person looked at the woman sitting by the window and asked.
"Why did your highness trap this servant here and ask this servant such a question? Didn't this servant die in the Supreme Court? Why do you have to heal my injuries?”The woman turned her head to look at the person who had come. There was no fear in her eyes.
"If this king says…this king can't bear for you to die, what will you do?”This person was undoubtedly Xie Yun Chen. He slowly walked to her side and lifted her chin."This king has asked the emperor for an imperial edict today and will marry you on a certain day. Do you like it?”
The woman was obviously shocked, as if she had forgotten that Yun Chen was pinching her chin."What does Your Highness mean by this?"
At this moment, the alarm bells in her heart rang, and for some reason, she felt a faint sense of unease.
Xie Yunchen let go of the maid and took out a white handkerchief to wipe his hands.""Yan Ning! It's indeed a good name. In terms of appearance…you don't seem to be worse than this king's princess. It's a pity…you followed the wrong master!”
"What does your highness mean by this, this servant does not understand!”Yan Ning could not help but be shocked. The hands by her side could not help but clench into fists. Did Xie Yunchen know who the person behind her was? No, this was definitely not possible.
"One day, you will understand. What you have to do now is to take care of yourself and then marry this king!”Xie Yunchen reached out to hold Yan Ning's hand and said,""Why are you so nervous? This king won't eat you! Look into this king's eyes!"
When Xie Yunchen said these words, his voice became extremely ethereal, as if it was extremely attractive. It attracted Yan Ning's gaze.
"From now on, within four days after the wedding, you have to forget your purpose for coming here. You only need to remember that this king is the only man you want to marry in this life!”Under Xie Yunchen's explanation, the woman's expression became incomparably dull, and her eyes were incomparably empty. When she heard Xie Yunchen's final command, she couldn't help but struggle. Her beautiful brows furrowed slightly, as if she was resisting against Xie Yunchen.
However, Xie Yun Chen did not give him the chance to resist. He stretched out his hand and gently tapped the woman's head, causing her to faint.
He had never failed to capture a soul before, but Yan Ning's struggle still gave him a slight shock. It seemed that this woman's feelings for Fourth Sister were not shallow, so when he made her believe that he was the man she wanted to marry, she had such a big reaction. But this was also good! As long as one had the will, it would not be difficult to control.
The reason why he came here at this moment was to capture her soul so that she could marry him smoothly and let the people in the outside world, especially Fourth Sister, feel at ease!
He had put in a lot of effort to set up this trap. Even Lan Ao did not know the reason for his actions. For this matter, he had even gone to the Emperor to seek justice for his daughter Lan Yue.
If nothing unexpected had happened, it would not be long before Lan Ao would come looking for him in a rage. Lan Ao's current appearance was perfect. Only by doing this would he let others know that he was someone who was easily bewitched by women. He would lower their guard and lure them out!
The reason why he went to the emperor to ask for a marriage was just to show off to those people. He wanted to make the fourth brother feel that his people were of great use, while others felt that it was ridiculous. As long as he did these two things, it was enough.
Xie Yunchen took out a black bug from his bosom and placed it into the mouth of the unconscious Yan Ning, allowing it to crawl into her body.
Bai Lang had found the poison in these poisonous insects for him, and that portion of the poison included the poison in Little Dough's body!
As long as the poisonous bug was not properly guided, it would force the poison out of its body, forcing the unconscious Yan Ning to suffer a fate worse than death. However, she would not die. Unless he killed the bug with a special method, the bug would follow her for the rest of her life until she died!
The reason why he poisoned her was to control Yan Ning, just in case!
Xie Yunchen watched as the worm entered her mouth and nodded in satisfaction. He turned Yan Ning around and placed her on the bed.
Coincidentally, Lan Yue had heard some news and walked in from the door.
Lan Yue's body trembled slightly. She looked at Xie Yunchen who was carrying a woman who was only wearing a middle-grade robe. She took a deep breath and said,"No wonder you didn't let me find you or disturb you. You even let me move out of your place. So it turns out that I have a woman behind my back. I originally thought that what I heard from the outside were just rumors, but I didn't expect it to be true. Xie Yunchen, you want to marry a concubine?”
At this moment, she looked extremely calm, but deep down, she wanted to rush up and bite Xie Yunchen to death. Although they were only husband and wife in name, he could not ignore her feelings, right? If she hadn't become familiar with this Imperial Residence these few days, wouldn't she have been unable to find him?
