The Fourth Lady

Chapter 109 Plan within a Plan I

How could Xuanyuan Yuzhen not understand the implied meaning behind Murong Jingxuan's words.

But even so, what of it? If he was the one that had met her first, would Su Qingyan really like him?

Judging by her personality, that simply wasn't possible. Moreover, he wasn't able to give her 'eternal

devotion' either."

He'd always thought that something like love, could only be used as a bargaining chip. Perhaps when

needed, he could even marry a woman he didn't love, but this woman must have value.

Just like how Xuanyuan Yufan said he wanted to marry Su Qingyan this morning in the Imperial Court,

because Su Qingyan was worth using.

If he wasn't a prince, then perhaps this could be treated differently, but he probably couldn't wait until

then.

After all, she was that talented of a person.

In the end, he didn't know what he was thinking. At first, he'd only thought she was an interesting girl.

Afterwards, under Murong Jingxuan's influence and interacting with her, he felt that she was a deep

and unpredictable person.

She could see his ambitions, and could also his aspirations.

He certainly did want to become the person sitting on the throne, but that was because he wasn't

confident he could give this country to others.

Even if it was the Crown Prince, who he trusted the most.

The Crown Prince has been weak and sickly since youth, if it wasn't for Hongjia Emperor adhering to

the rules, this position couldn't have possibly fallen onto Xuanyuan Yuze's head.

When he thought of this, he raised his head to look to Murong Jingxuan, "Jingxuan, why don't you also

ask for an edict asking for that girl as a wife."

"Do you think I don't want to." Murong Jingxuan turned around to look at Xuanyuan Yuzhen with a

serious look, "I talked about this with her before, but Yan'er said she temporarily doesn't want to marry.

I don't want to force her. But if there really is the need one day, then I would also ask for an edict."

Murong Jingxuan tightly clenched his fist.

Regarding the matter with the edict, Murong Jingxuan didn't want to hide it from Qingyan. But if

Qingyan didn't want to right now, he wouldn't make it difficult for her. After all, she was someone with

her own ideas, he didn't want to miss out on such a good girl because of this.

"You're right." Xuanyuan Yuzhen curled his lips.

"That's right, that girl said to treat eliminating the Jingguo Marquis manor as a gift to you." Murong

Jingxuan look to Xuanyuan Yuzhen and calmly said. "If it wasn't for the Crown Prince's body, not matter

what, it wouldn't be him as the Crown Prince."

When Xuanyuan Yuzhen heard these words, he helplessly sounded his voice, "Jingxuan."

"Whatever." Murong Jingxuan waved his hand at him, "I know you have your own thoughts, else the

Imperial Consort wouldn't be that favored."

Xuanyuan Yuzhen looked to Murong Jingxuan, shaking his head. Everything about Murong Jingxuan

was good and trustworthy, just his wanton and unrestrained manner, really made people a bit unable to

accept.

After Xuanyuan Yufan left the Imperial Court, he headed to Zhaoyang Palace, the palace his imperial

mother lived in. Just as he walked in to the palace, he saw Yi Consort sitting in a recliner not far away,

leisurely reading a book. That appearance, no matter who saw, would feel pleasing to the eyes.

"My son, you've come." Yi Consort looked to the entering Xuanyuan Yufan with a smile, "Why do you

look so unhappy today?"

Hearing Yi Consort's words, Xuanyuan Yufan stroked his chin, "Has imperial mother heard of Su Yun's

daughter?"

Yi Consort listened to Xuanyuan Yufan's words and nodded with a smile. Because of Su Qingyan's

splendid performance during the Talent Conference, she more or less still has somewhat of an

impression of this name. Although she's never met her, she knew this girl wasn't someone that was

easy to get along with.

"Imperial mother, I want to take her as my wife, but was rejected by imperial father during the Imperial

Court session today." Xuanyuan Yufan looked to her and impatiently spoke, "She's just a daughter of a

General, why does imperial father care so much."

"Son." Yi Consort interrupted his words, "Do you still remember that your imperial father permitted

Chunyuan Princess to let this girl freely choose her marriages. If you really want to marry her, then

you'll need to have her approval as well."

Listening to Yi Consort's words, Xuanyuan Yufan finally recalled this matter. The things that had

happened during the Talent Conference, he'd already mostly forgotten.

He thought of Hongjia Emperor's behavior today, perhaps he was being to hasty.

But if she's promised the Princess Consort position, then even she would agree.

"Imperial mother, what do you think of this?" Xuanyuan Yufan looked to Yi Consort with a serious look,

"This woman is very impressive. If I can marry her, then later when I fight for the throne that Su Yun

can be of help."

"Even so, what should you do to make that girl wholeheartedly willing to marry you?" Yi Consort looked

to him grinning.

Hearing Yi Consort say this, a devious smile appeared on his lips, "What does imperial mother think I

should do?"

Yi Consort looked to him and just knew what he was thinking inside his mind, "Why don't you make a

move during the Dragon Gate Banquet? That way if you're discovered, no matter what you'll have to

take responsibility. Furthermore, if a girl loses her purity, there's nothing she can do."

"Then we'll do it as imperial mother says. This Su Qingyan I'm set on marrying." Xuanyuan Yufan licked

his lips, as if he could imagine her appearance under him.

"My son, you definitely mustn't be too careless with this." Yi Consort carefully spoke, "If others found

out...."

"Imperial mother, need not worry. I have a plan for this matter."

Seeing Xuanyuan Yufan's confidence appearance, Yi Consort nodded with a smile. Her son has

matured, especially even under these circumstances, it really was great.

Yi Consort knew in her heart that Hongjia Emperor established the Crown Prince because of the rules.

But if the Crown Prince were to die one day, then her son will definitely be fully worthy of becoming the

Emperor. This way, all her hard work in this lifetime would have paid off.

--------------------------

Qingyan impatiently waited in her room for Murong Jingxuan to come. From time to time, she would

gaze out the window. Although the Ghost Ringed Scorpion had already entered Su Qingyuan's body,

she couldn't just rashly head to Su Qingyuan's yard right now. It was best to observe for a period of Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.

time in the dark, sometimes these things could easily be exposed after all.

When Murong Jingxuan rushed over, he saw Qingyan glancing around. Seeing that appearance of

hers, he delightfully curved his lips, "Yan'er, are you waiting for me?"

Seeing Murong Jingxuan's appearance, Qingyan let out a sigh, "What took you so long!"

Murong Jingxuan smiled, "I learned from the Fourth Prince about the matter of the Second Prince

wanting to marry you, so I was delayed."

Listening to Murong Jingxuan's words, Qingyan laughed, "Murong Jingxuan, if I had to marry the

Second Prince, what would you do?"

"Steal you away." Murong Jingxuan looked to her and firmly spoke.

Hearing these words, Qingyan lowered her head, and a faint smile bloomed on her lips, "Come on, let's

go see how my eldest sister's situation is going."
