Alright, she knew that the male lead was always very attractive, but Song Jiaoyue lacked his domineering aura. This kind of man could easily arouse a woman's desire to conquer.
Men used force to conquer the world, but women used gentleness and tolerance to conquer men.
Bai Xiangxiu secretly rolled her eyes. No wonder people said that young girls were easily attracted to middle-aged uncles. This time, she really believed it.
Although Long Heng was old, his aura was already incomparable to those middle-aged uncles.
So it was inevitable that he would attract these young girls.
Young Master An was also depressed. He had already said it so clearly, but why did Prince still ask what it meant?
What else could it mean? Wasn't it just improper conduct and unsuitable to be a princess?
And didn't he come here to tell him this?
"This, this is her lack of virtue. Prince needs to think carefully."
After Young Master An finished speaking, Long Family's second uncle's wife said: "Ha, Prince needs to think carefully."
Two marriages had been ruined. So what if she was successful and famous? Wouldn't she still be a laughingstock?
Bai Xiangxiu silently clenched her fist. Since she already felt that she had to become a warrior and chase away all these monsters to protect her family, then what was she hesitating for?
She suddenly stood up and changed her weak attitude. Her gaze was sharp as she looked at Young Master An, causing him to tremble and lower his head.
"Young Master An, right? I want to ask if we've met before this?"
"No … no."
The princess was truly too beautiful. It was a pity that they were not fated to be together.
"Then do you have any enmity?"
"Naturally … no."
Young Master An's palms were sweating. He was even more nervous than when he looked at Prince.
"Then why did Young Master An create something out of nothing to frame me?"
"No, that's not it. I'm not creating something out of nothing."
"Not creating something out of nothing?
Then let me ask you. I've never met you before. How can we talk about feelings, betrayal, and betrayal? "
"But, you and I have a marriage contract."
"Do you have proof?"
"This … Scholars always keep their promises."
"That's a promise between you and my father, not between you and me. Moreover, my father was drinking in your house. A drunk person can say anything. Don't tell me that you took my joke seriously?"
"Of course I'm not joking …"
"Then, have you exchanged the marriage invitation?
Is there a matchmaker? Is there a witness? "
"The witnesses are my entire family."
"Haha …"
Bai Xiangxiu didn't even bother to cover her small mouth as she laughed. She was naturally beautiful, and her smile was magnificent enough to topple cities. Everyone around her couldn't help but gasp in surprise.
"Listen, everyone. Their whole family can testify.
If someone in their family threatened to ruin my reputation, then who would stand up for me?
There's no evidence, and you haven't even seen my face, yet you claim that I'm his wife. Isn't this too ridiculous?
In the future, the drunkard's words count, and the world will be in chaos. "
"I … I can testify for Young Master An. Father mentioned it at home, and at that time, Mother also nodded."
Bai Rong 'er couldn't stand her elder sister's arrogance, so she suddenly spoke up.
"Oh?
If that's the case, then they agreed after some discussion. May I ask why you wanted to cancel your previous marriage? "
"I … I … they were the ones who canceled the marriage, not the Bai family."
"Is that so? Using three hundred taels to force the other party to cancel the marriage, was this also the Bai family's initiative?"
Bai Rong 'er didn't expect her elder sister to know about this. She couldn't help but bite her lower lip and lower her head. "He's just a scholar. When will he be able to pass the civil service examination? It's normal for the family to cancel the marriage."
"You're the shameless one."
Bai Xiangxiu said, "Do you think anyone would believe a witness like you?"
Bai Rong 'er was so angry that her face turned red, but she felt like she was drowned by the gazes of the people around her.
Obviously, the elder sister said that such a situation wouldn't happen. What went wrong?
However, the second aunt of the Long family said, "This only proves that the Bai family is a treacherous family."
"That's enough."
Long Heng shouted, "The prince's estate already knew about this before the princess consort was married into the family. At that time, we even asked the An family if they agreed to cancel the marriage. The An family had already replied and agreed to this matter.
At that time, it was just a joke. The An family didn't even use a single copper coin to resolve this matter.
If we were to look into it and seize on this matter now, wouldn't we be in a difficult position?
However, since this matter has already been raised, the prince's estate needs to make up for it. Otherwise, this matter can't be considered resolved. "
"Uh …"
That's right, why make up for it? It was obvious that someone was causing trouble behind the scenes.
Bai Xiangxiu frowned and looked at Long Heng. She didn't understand his intentions.
Long Heng looked at Song Jiaoyue. Actually, if Bai Xiangxiu was a good sister, then he really wanted to push her to him. He didn't want that pair of eyes to grow on his princess consort.
The eunuch asked, "Prince, how should we deal with this?"
"It's simple. This matter was originally the Bai family's fault. My wife was raised in the boudoir, so how could she know about this matter?
Therefore, the ones responsible are the Bai family. Since the Bai family has another daughter, then marry her off to the An family as compensation! "The corner of his mouth twitched as he spoke without hesitation.
"What?"
"Don't."
Young Master An and Bai Rong 'er objected at the same time. However, at this moment, the old madame spoke up, "The people who went to the Bai family just now have returned. Master Bai has already agreed to this matter. Eunuch, you can go back and report this matter!"
The eunuch said, "It is as the old madame said."
"Wait a moment. This King wants to know who reported this matter to the emperor."
Long Heng felt that if it was based on the reaction of a normal person, he would have already divorced Bai Xiangxiu by now.
This was because no family would accept such a treacherous woman. Or rather, she was heartless and could even climb up the social ladder.
However, Long Heng had gone through thick and thin with her, so he naturally believed that she wasn't that kind of woman.
Therefore, it was very likely that her mother was the one behind this.
The old madame, on the other hand, was even calmer. She had already investigated this matter before she had gone to fetch them. Therefore, she was certain that someone had set them up and allowed them to go through the wedding ceremony.
Now, there were too many people who wanted to deal with her son. She needed to distinguish between her own people and her enemies.
Therefore, in this atmosphere where they shared a common enemy, this kind of plan that should have been successful had instead lost its effectiveness.
The eunuch smiled and said, "I came here under orders. I don't know anything else."
Long Heng didn't expect the eunuch to reveal the mastermind behind this. He only wanted to let everyone know that someone wanted to deal with him, so they wanted to harm his assistants. For example, Bai Xiangxiu, who was now known as the female Zhuge in the capital.
With Prince Rong's return, her story had reached a new climax and her fame had grown.
Therefore, it was reasonable for someone to want to deal with her.
Although no one said anything, the conflict between Long Heng and the emperor wasn't something that had only existed for a day or two. Everyone was more or less aware of it.
