When Gu Lan woke up, she found herself sitting in the carriage. The carriage was shaking gently, and there was an indescribable pain on her body.

She opened her eyes and her consciousness was very blurred. After a while, she saw a handsome phoenix-eyed man sitting on the master seat. Her eyes were closed, her long eyelashes were longer than those of the girl's house, and there was a faint smile on the corner of her mouth. She looked like a warm light, and she suddenly felt like a fairy.

Gu Lan looked at the other party blankly and forgot everything.

King Ding suddenly opened his eyes and saw her. He smiled, his voice extremely gentle: "Awaken?"

He looked even better when he smiled. Feng's eyes seemed to be filled with infinite tenderness. Gu Lan's heartbeat accelerated. He opened his eyes and looked to one side, but saw Liuxia kneeling on the side, with her eyes lowered and her face pale. It seemed as if she woke up from a dream. Gu Lan suddenly remembered it. She and Liuxia followed the maid in the palace. Someone suddenly attacked from one side!

"Who are you?" Gu Lan nervously grabbed Liuxia's shoulder and misunderstood King Ding as the one who kidnapped her.

King Ding put away his smile and said seriously: "I am the current second prince, King Ding, and she recognizes me."

Gu Lan looked at Liuxia in disbelief, and Liuxia nodded with a gray face.

"Prince, why is the prince here? Where are you going to take me?" Gu Lan never thought that he would be with a prince. He couldn't tell what it felt. He was nervous and confused, and he felt a sense of unreality. Prince, that's a person who is higher than the princess!

King Ding's face darkened, and he slowly told them about what happened today, "Cheng Yu is the second princess of King Jing. He has not been liked by King Jing since childhood. Now Cheng Yu doesn't want to get married yet. King Jing insists on choosing a girl with a low status for him as his wife. He likes you and deliberately knocks you out. He puts it in a room with Cheng Yu in a room with urging love. I happened to be in the palace today. I saw Cheng Yu being called away by King Jing for too long, so I went out to find him. I happened to catch up with this incident. I followed Cheng Yu all the way and sucked the fragrance after rescued Cheng Yu, but I sucked the fragrance..."

Gu Lan's face changed drastically.

King Ding's voice became gentler and he said softly: "Don't worry, girl, since I want you, I will be responsible for you, but I don't know if you want to be my concubine..."

Gu Lan finally understood why her body hurt and her innocence disappeared. She couldn't help but start to cry. Liuxia glanced at King Ding and whispered: "Miss, don't cry. This is all because Princess Jing is vicious. We were unprepared to her words."

Gu Lan had an accident because she was not able to protect the master. The princess was the kindest. If a girl caused such a thing, the princess would probably take her anger on her. She had to put the blame on others. Liuxia was half-believing and half-doubted about the words of Ding Wang. Jing Wang and his wife were indeed disagreeable with Cheng Yu. Seeing that the prince's wife was so low-born, Jing Wang could do such a thing, but Ding Wang said that he saved Cheng Yu himself was attracted by the way. Liuxia didn't believe Xiang Wang's words, 80% of Ding Wang's beauty was probably because Ding Wang took advantage of Gu Lan's beauty and took advantage of the situation.

However, in order to protect himself, Liuxia could only follow the words of King Ding to persuade Gu Lan, "Miss, don't cry, the prince is handsome, he is willing to take you as a concubine. This is a matter of many noble girls in the capital who want to ask for it. Girl, stop crying. If you do this, what if the prince misunderstands that you don't want to enter the mansion?"

Gu Lan cried and said, "She is all from King Ding. If she doesn't follow him, can she still marry someone else?"

King Ding said at the right time: "If the girl really doesn't want to do anything, I won't force anyone to do anything. The girl wants any compensation, but it doesn't matter."

Gu Lan panicked, quickly glanced at the man's outstanding face, lowered his head and said, "I, I'm willing..."

Although he is a concubine, he is the prince and the famous Prince Ding. I heard that the emperor attaches great importance to Prince Ding. If Prince Ding ascends the throne in the future, she will be a concubine. Being able to enter the palace as a concubine is better than being Cheng Yu's wife? Cheng Yu cannot be liked by King Jing. She will most likely suffer when she gets married. Besides, Cheng Yu is cold, I am afraid she may not like her, unlike Prince Ding...

Thinking of this, Gu Lan quietly looked at King Ding again and just hit the man's gentle eyes.

Gu Lan's heartbeats a moment, and his face flushed.

King Ding saw it and sneered in his heart. He first coaxed Gu Lan to believe his words, pleased him, and made her willingly be his concubine, so that her cousin would not be angry with him. Gu Heng might be suspicious, but he had no evidence. His own sister became his person, so Gu Heng could only send his sister to the palace. When Gu Lan entered his palace, would he treat her well? Should he dote on her or never see her again in his life? Who can care?

The group soon arrived at the Gu family. At this time, Gu Heng was still working in the Hanlin Academy. King Ding sincerely compensated Meng Xianxian. Meng Xianxian had a good relationship with several cousins. She believed whatever King Ding said. The couple bullied others and pityed her sister-in-law and were plotting against him. She also complained a little about King Ding. But seeing that his sister-in-law shyly, she obviously fell in love with his cousin, Meng Xianxian stopped complaining, and only asked King Ding to take good care of Gu Lan in the future. As for King Ding to take a concubine rather than marrying a wife, Meng Xianxian did not think anything was wrong. No matter how much she liked her sister-in-law, she knew that Gu Lan's identity was not qualified to be a princess at all.

After coaxing her cousin, Ding Wang hesitated and said, "Immortal, your cousin with a treasure has also suffered a grievance. I want to take Liuxia into the palace to give him a personal certificate and ask his father to make a decision for him."

Meng Xianxian looked at her maid and hesitated. She didn't really want to get involved in other people's family affairs.

King Ding sighed and his voice became even lower, "Cousin, your cousin, your baby-carrying cousin lost his mother in his early years. King Jing was very cold to him over the years. Now he plotted against him like this and even caused Miss Gu to be wronged. Please help me once? Don't worry, Baobi is a person with a proper attitude. He will not use this to ask his father to punish King Jing. What is reported to be bad is the reputation of our royal family. He just wants to ask his father to allow him to decide his marriage so that such a scandal would occur in the future."

He said this, Meng Xianxian thought of the grievances his sister-in-law suffered today, and her resentment towards King Jing and his wife surged up and nodded.

King Ding touched her head docilely and said with a smile: "During the Chinese New Year, I remember to ask Nannan for your cousin, Huobi, for a big Feng Hong. He won't tell you, I'll take it away for you."

Meng Xianxian was amused by him and advised softly: "Second brother, go quickly, don't let cousin Huaibi wait in a hurry." She had to go over to comfort her sister-in-law, and she had to think about how her husband would explain to him after he came back.

King Ding nodded and took Liuxia to the palace.

Cheng Yu was already waiting for him outside the palace gate. As soon as the two brothers met, Ding Wang smiled proudly, and Cheng Yu gave him a grateful glance.

At this time, there was still a while before lunch. Emperor Mingde was reviewing the memorial in Chongzheng Hall. He heard that his son was coming with his nephew who should have been recovering from his wounds at home. It was quite novel and asked someone to come in.

"Your Majesty, please make the decision for Cheng Yu." As the saint, Cheng Yu knelt down to the man in the dragon robe sitting cross-legged on the warm couch, and his forehead touched the ground. Behind him, Liuxia also knelt down obediently, only King Ding stood aside with an angry look on his face.

Mingde Diqi was surprised, "What's going on?"

Cheng Yu straightened up and lowered his eyes to report what happened in Prince Jing's mansion today. With Princess Yongfu's maid as evidence, Emperor Mingde immediately believed nine points. As for the remaining points, he, like Liuxia, believed that his son wanted Gu Lan when he saw the lust, not to have a sucking mystery. Xiangxiang had to be done, but it was a trivial matter that was irrelevant. Emperor Mingde was too lazy to expose it, so he only glanced at his son with a meaningful look.

King Ding smiled embarrassedly, without denying it.

His son did not pretend to be confused with him, and Emperor Mingde would not pursue him anymore. He first took Liuxia out of the palace, then stroked his beautiful beard under his chin and sighed: "Your father is really confused. Let's get up first. I will say a few words to him during the family banquet this year." King Jing favored the third princess and was partial to his youngest son and neglected his two sons in front. He knew that he was.

Cheng Yu did not get up and lowered his eyes and said, "Do you know why your father suddenly became so anxious to arrange a marriage for me?"

Emperor Mingde raised his eyebrows and looked at his son. King Ding looked confused, "Is there any hidden truth?"

Cheng Yu laughed self-deprecatingly, "To be honest with the emperor, I have liked my cousin of the Yunyang Marquis' Mansion since I was a child. Unfortunately, my cousin and Wenjia's cousin were childhood sweethearts. I could only take care of their siblings silently. My cousin fell from a high place and hurt my mind. I forgot my previous memories and also forgot my cousin Wenjia. Instead, because I was by my side when she was awake, I gradually fell in love with me. I was very happy. I wanted to wait until my cousin and her husband would come to the Yunyang Marquis to propose marriage next year. Unexpectedly, my father urged me to make a decision before the New Year, so I told my father to make a decision for me."

"He knew you like your cousin, but he still designed you like this?" King Ding's eyes were so angry that his fists were clattering.

Emperor Mingde also frowned.

Cheng Yu continued with a wry smile, "Yes, my father doesn't allow it. I asked him why he doesn't. My father said that my relationship with Yunyang Hou was stiff. Yunyang Hou would not marry my daughter. He would have gone for nothing if he went there. Then I went to ask Yun first... I begged for uncle, but my uncle refused at first. It was my cousin who was determined to marry me, so my uncle agreed. I went to ask my father again. My father said he would think about it for a few days. Then today he asked me to go over and said that he wanted to discuss the marriage, but it was a Hongmen banquet."

After saying that, he kowtowed to Emperor Mingde again, "Emperor, my father does not allow me to marry a cousin. I can only ask the emperor and ask the emperor to make the decision for me. My nephew lost his mother since he was a child and was not favored by his father. Except for my aunt, only my cousin treats me sincerely. Please ask the emperor and my cousin to make the decision for my nephew and make me happy."

He kowtowed three times hard, and when he lifted it back, his eyes turned red.

"No prospect." King Ding cursed softly, turned around and went to the window, with his back facing this side.

Emperor Mingde didn't expect that there was such a reason. Thinking about the daughter-in-law chosen by Cheng Jingrong for the prince, he didn't want to marry Chu Qing's daughter to his second son as his wife. The reason is not difficult to understand. The eldest son is the prince, and the second son marrys a daughter of a high family again. What should he do if the third couple, his favorite couple, are dwarfs in the future?

But they are all sons, why is he so partial? Especially Cheng Yu, who is handsome and calm and capable, is loved by Emperor Mingde from the bottom of his heart.

"Don't worry, the empress dowager discussed with me last night's spring draft with me. The decree will be issued in the past two days, and women of the age of fifth-rank officials and above in the mansion will be ordered to enter the palace to run for election. Since you are in love with your cousin, when I choose a princess for your second brother and others next year, I will also point out the marriage for you. Your father will not agree, and I will be a matchmaker for you."

Draft? Choose a princess for him?

King Ding looked over in surprise.

Cheng Yu's heart suddenly sank, and he made a lot of calculations, but he didn't expect that the fourth prince would still be snatched away first.
