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

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 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."
