Guarding sand!

These three words caused Feng Ningyan's scalp to go numb.

She was still a virgin, so of course the gatekeeping sand was still there.

But for some reason, the empress dowager brought up this matter. Could it be that the matter of her fake marriage with Shen Lingjue was known by the empress dowager? How did you know?

At this moment, if she did not speak the truth, the empress dowager only needed to have her sleeve raised to know that she was lying.

However, what did it have to do with anyone else?

Feng Ning Yan bit her lips and lowered her head. "In reply to the empress dowager, this is a matter between husband and wife after all. How can we mention it in front of the emperor and esteemed wangfei …"

"Do you know that you are marrying a prince of the Great Wu?" The empress dowager said coldly, "If you knew, you would have known whether or not you were a concubine. This isn't a matter of a boudoir, but a matter of the imperial family's dignity and bloodline. How could you lie and conceal it? "I'm not telling you the truth yet!"

Ever since she met the empress dowager at Cloudsoaring Mountain, the empress dowager had always been very protective of her. Her kind face was kind and kind, and she had never been as angry as she was today.

She knew it was a serious matter and had no choice but to kneel down again.

"Please calm your anger, empress dowager. Honestly speaking, your granddaughter-in-law is fine." Indeed, Princess Yuhuang and I haven't consummated yet, but that was only because I was unable to accept such a sudden marriage, so … "

Hearing this, the emperor couldn't help but get angry, "The marriage of all the women in the world is the order of your parents and the words of the matchmaker. The marriage of you, Feng Ning Yan, is decided by my royal decree, and the marriage proposal of Great Yue State's King Yu herself, what else do you want!?"

Even if the Emperor was not arrogant enough, this scolding still made Feng Ningyan shrink back her neck.

"Imperial father, please calm your anger. Your wife understands her mistake …" She quickly apologized.

When the Empress Mother heard that she had accepted the matter, she was so angry that she almost fainted.

"Little girl Feng, you … It is fortunate that This Dowager has always favored you so much, but you actually tricked This Dowager! Which of us, King Yu, is not worthy of you? Not only are you not willing to consummate your marriage, you even used a fake Lovers' Joyous Union to deceive This Dowager! This one truly dotes on you for nothing! "

Feng Ningyan looked up at the empress dowager in astonishment. "Empress Dowager, what did you say …" The Lovers' Joyous Blessings? "

It was only then that she found out that Senior Servant Xu had forced her and Shen Ling to consummate their marriage. The next day, she had taken away the ambrosia of the mandarin ducks, and it was actually to report to the empress dowager.

"Could it be …" Was it the empress dowager who asked Senior Servant Xu to arrange things that day? "

So she'd fooled Grandma Xu, but she'd fooled the empress dowager instead.

The Empress Dowager pointed at her, her hands shaking even more. "I am not hoping for your husband and wife to settle down and bear fruit as soon as possible, so why should I even need to worry about such trivial matters? "Who would have thought that after so much effort, you two younger generation would deceive me to the point that I have to walk around in circles!"

When Feng Ningyan saw the empress dowager's anger, she couldn't bear it any longer and hastily added, "Esteemed empress dowager, please don't be angry at granddaughter-in-law. Please listen to what she has to say …"

The empress dowager was so shocked that her heart turned cold. How could she still listen?

"What else is there to say? If not for Hua Zhimu telling this to This Dowager, This Dowager would still be dreaming of carrying my great-grandson!"

"Flower Palm Ink?!" Feng Ning Yan was momentarily stunned. She never thought that this matter would actually be dug up by Hua Ruyu.

How could Hua Ruyu know?

Thinking of this, she suddenly understood.

Yesterday, when she was bathing in the Jade Temple, there really was someone outside the window! Furthermore, she was someone that Hua Ruyu had bribed!

It might even be that Yu Qing!

She regretted it so much. She hated herself for not taking the censer seriously. She thought that the people around her were loyal and would never say anything. However, she had not been on her guard against the nuns of the Yutang …

Angry to the extreme, she held her head high and spoke word by word with a tone that was neither servile nor overbearing:

"Imperial Father, the empress dowager, and Imperial Concubine, please listen to Ning Yan's explanation. Ning Yan had never been restrained by etiquette. She believed that marriage had to be harmonious. It was even more difficult for men and women to be strangers to each other. Therefore, I made an agreement with your highness that we would not get along for the time being and wait for our relationship to deepen before everything goes smoothly. "

"However, when we are in good agreement, if we are not trapped in a dangerous situation, if we are rushing on the road, even when we return to the capital, we will be able to gather less and less. How would we have the time to be together?"

The imperial concubine silently listened to Feng Ning Yan's words and couldn't help but shake her head, "Yu Wangfei, you're being too willful … "However, since YuWang dotes on you so much, he definitely can't bear to force you. That's why I'm following your lead. This can be considered to be the love between husband and wife …"

Although she didn't dare to directly plead for Feng Ning Yan, she still wanted to tell the emperor and empress dowager from the side that this was a matter between husband and wife. One was willing to beat him up, while the other was willing to take it.

When the empress dowager heard this, her expression eased a little. She thought back to when Shen Lingjue swore at Cloudsoaring Mountain that as long as Feng Ningyan lived, she wouldn't act out the show.

If the two of them were to agree on such a strange agreement, even if they did not have a round room now, they would still have a round one in the future.

After all, she loved Feng Ning Yan dearly. Although she had suddenly heard about the fake marriage and couldn't help but be enraged, in the end, it was still for the Yuwang couple.

Just as the empress dowager was about to relax, a sneer came from the empress dowager.

"It's a pity that they aren't husband and wife. Love in front of others is just an illusion. "The Duke Yu Mansion and the Feng Clan are only related in politics, so it's not important if the Feng Clan is not reunited. The most important thing is that the Feng Clan's Ning Nanyan Army supports King Yu's ascension to the throne."

The moment she heard the sound, Feng Ning Yan gritted her teeth. Her eyes were like daggers as she looked in the direction of the sound.

Shen Youhuang and Hua Ruyu walked over side by side.

As Hua Ruyu spoke, she walked triumphantly to the front of the palace and stood beside the empress dowager, looking maliciously at Feng Ning Yan.

Feng Ning Yan clenched her fists, and glared at Hua Ruyu: "Hua Ruyu! My relationship with King Yu won't allow you to slander him! My Feng family's loyalty to the imperial government will not allow someone like you with ill intentions to slander it! "

"How dare you!" Shen Youhuang said coldly, "Feng Ningyan, your Feng family deceives royal father and empress dowager with a fake marriage. Not only did you betray their kindness, you've also betrayed the emperor. What right do you have to say you're loyal to the imperial court?"

The emperor couldn't help but be taken aback when he heard Chen Youhuang and Flower Rain's words. "Become the emperor?"

These four words were like a binding curse to the Emperor, causing his mind to suddenly explode and cold sweat to pour out.

"I'm only in my prime, but all of you princes are keeping a close eye on my throne, afraid that I'll die sooner!"

"I gave it to you, you guys want it!" Even if I don't give it to you, we still have to fight for it! "Even the Feng Clan, which has been loyal to the imperial government for several dynasties, is trying to plot against me!"

"Imperial Father is enlightened, the loyalty of the Feng family to Your Majesty is clear!" Feng Ning Yan knocked her head against the ground, she was shocked and angry at the same time, "The matter of the fake marriage was suggested by me alone, my father doesn't know a thing! "Thus, when we were in the Ningnan County province, he even specially arranged for me and Your Highness Yu to bathe in the same pool …"

She knew that she had stirred up a great mess this time. If it weren't for Shen You Huang and Hua Ruyu framing her, she would have been able to make sense of herself in front of the empress dowager and the emperor.

However, now that it involved the struggle for the direct line of descent and the Feng family's disloyalty, she instantly panicked.

"Still need to quibble!"

At this moment, all of Feng Ningyan's explanations seemed more like lies. How could the Emperor be willing to believe them?

"How did Feng Wei speak of Ling Jue back then? Explain clearly to me what the relationship of interest is behind this marriage!"
