"Does the Emperor not want the crown prince to marry a woman with a better family background?" On the surface, Imperial Consort Lan seemed to be doing this for the Crown Prince, but in reality, she had her own selfish motives.

"It's not like I don't want to as well. It's just that now that the imperial edict has been issued, this is the only way." After saying that, the Emperor closed his eyes, indicating that he did not want to talk about this matter anymore.

Seeing that the Imperial Consort Lan did not want to discuss this matter anymore, she could only tactfully stop mentioning this matter.

In fact, the Emperor also knew that the reason the Imperial Consort Lan brought up this matter today was definitely not for the crown prince but for herself. It was just that he did not want to make it so clear.

In the morning of the next day, Imperial Consort Lan immediately wrote a letter to send the woman out of the palace, telling her to enter the palace first. She wanted the crown prince to see her, maybe the crown prince would be attracted by her beauty the moment he saw her.

But Imperial Consort Lan was wrong about this matter. Su Jinxuan did not even want to look at that kind of woman.

Everyone in the capital knew that the crown prince was going to be married, so how could Jiang Wen not know about it?

Previously, Jiang Wen had already settled down for so long, he thought that it was time to take action.

When Imperial Consort Lan went out of the palace at noon, she went to the general's estate. Because of the marriage of the crown prince, she felt that it was necessary to stop it.

When she went back, even if someone saw her, she wouldn't be afraid. It was her own home anyway, so no one else would think much of it.

This time, Imperial Consort Lan did not even bring out her personal palace maids. She did not believe in anyone else in the palace, including the palace maids who had followed her for so many years.

This time, Jiang Wen was not looking for the Great General but Jiang Wen instead. She knew that Jiang Wen had some grudges with Mo Xiaoyan and her family, so it would be great if he could borrow Jiang Wen's power.

No one wanted the person they hated to get as far ahead of them as possible, and the position they held grew higher and higher as well. Naturally, Jiang Wen was no exception.

"Jiang Wen, you should already know that the crown prince is going to get married this time, right?" Imperial Consort Lan said as she raised her head.

"Empress, I already know about this matter. I wonder what business you have coming to find me this time?" Jiang Wen did not dare to offend the Imperial Consort Lan, as he knew that at this moment, the Imperial Consort Lan was at her most favoured time.

Right now, even the Great General was Imperial Consort Lan's big brother, so he had to be respectful to Imperial Consort Lan, let alone him.

"Don't you have any idea?" Imperial Consort Lan's voice sounded somewhat stern.

"What is the Imperial Consort Lan's idea?" Jiang Wen was a little afraid in his heart.

"How could someone as smart as you not know what I mean?" Imperial Consort Lan faintly said as she narrowed her eyes.

"I really don't know what the Empress means." Jiang Wen felt that this Imperial Consort Lan was really unfathomable. She was cruel and merciless, probably only a few people could understand her thoughts.

"I want you to stop that woman from marrying the crown prince!" A fierce look flashed past Imperial Consort Lan's eyes.

"Should I stop it? But how can I stop her? The person she wants to marry is the crown prince, he's not an ordinary person, how would I dare to offend the crown prince? " Jiang Wen felt that he did not have the ability to provoke Su Jinxuan.

"Are you really stupid? Or pretend not to know? " The Imperial Consort Lan said in a stern voice.

"Then Empress, what do you mean?" Jiang Wen asked.

"You can go deal with that girl. As long as you deal with her, the Crown Prince won't be able to get married on time." The corners of Imperial Consort Lan's mouth curled into a ruthless smile.

"I've been wanting to deal with her for some time now. Earlier, the crown prince had sent people to watch over us from the general's manor. Now that those people have left, it's a good opportunity to make a move." Jiang Wen said with a smile.

"Alright, since you have such an idea, then I won't say anymore. If this happens, I won't mistreat your General's House in the future!" Imperial Consort Lan smiled sinisterly.

"Then, I'll thank the Imperial Consort Lan Empress first." Jiang Wen's expression was very calm, not a single emotion could be seen from it.

Often, this kind of person was the scariest because ordinary people didn't understand him and couldn't see through him at all.

Jiang Wen hated Mo Xiaoyan the most now, he felt that if it wasn't for the bad things that she had done in the middle of it, he would probably be able to succeed with Mo Xiaoxia.

Although Jiang Wen was a little flowery in the past, he still really liked Mo Xiaoxia. It was probably because he was too immature at that time and was too impatient for a moment.

"Remember, this must succeed. You must prevent her from marrying the Crown Prince." The Imperial Consort Lan said word by word.

"I'll do my best." Actually, even Jiang Wen was a little unsure, he did not know if he could stop Mo Xiaoyan and Su Jinxuan from getting married.

"I'm not trying my best. What I want is to succeed. If I succeed in this matter, then you will definitely benefit a lot from it. If I can't succeed, then you just wait!" After Imperial Consort Lan finished speaking, she stood up, flicked her sleeves and left with graceful steps.

Jiang Wen's forehead was currently covered in cold sweat. He didn't know what this Imperial Consort Lan was scheming to prevent the crown prince and Mo Xiaoyan from getting married, nor did he know what benefits this would bring her.

It wasn't as if Jiang Wen didn't understand what Imperial Consort Lan was saying just now. This time, Imperial Consort Lan had to ask him to stop this marriage, but from the start, Jiang Wen did not feel reassured at all. If he did not succeed, who knew how this Imperial Consort Lan would deal with him in the future.

Jiang Wen regretted what he had said just now, and now that there was no point in regretting it, he could only try his best to stop it.

Inside the Minister's Mansion, Lady Shang Shu and Lord Shang Shu were currently arguing.

All the vases in the room had been smashed by the Mrs. Shang Shu. She was currently very angry and after searching for a few days, she was still unable to find Shangguan Chuyue.

"Bang …"

"Aiya, okay, stop falling, my wife." Master Shang was also very helpless, and could not blame her. After all, it was because of her daughter that she was like this.

If not for you constantly disagreeing with Chuyue and her marriage, would Chuyue have been able to run away from home? If you did not force her to marry that Young Master Hua Xin, would Chuyue have ran away from home? Are you her father? How can you be so heartless! " The Madam Shang Shu scolded loudly as she continued to throw things around the room.

"You can blame me everywhere. Isn't it for the good of our daughter? What's wrong with letting her marry that family's young master?" That family also had power and influence in the capital. If she were to marry that person in the future, she would definitely be blessed. What's so good about a whole day of fighting and killing? " Master Shang Shu still felt that his suggestion was right, he was doing it for Shangguan Chuyue's sake.

"What do you know? As long as my daughter likes it? Are you afraid that the dark guard will starve our daughter? " Madam Shang Shu was currently very worried for Shangguan Chuyue.
