All these years, he had no choice but to change his name and live under someone else's roof. Even though he was still the master, he was not as righteous as he was in the palace.

However, they had to secretly develop and nurture their own power, surpassing the empress's family. They had to rope in half of the people in the imperial court, and with the Baili family not sparing any money and manpower to help them, the results were gradually being shown, the crown prince was sickly, the empress was domineering, and their father no longer liked them. The Duanmu family was no longer the same as before, who would have thought that the unremarkable third prince would suddenly reveal himself?

He thought that after defeating the empress's power and resolving the sickly crown prince, when he and his mother's consort appeared in the world, royal father would definitely be happy. With the addition of the officials present, the position of crown prince had finally arrived.

Although they couldn't find out what intentions he had, it was precisely this sort of composed opponent that was the scariest, so mufei repeatedly told him to be cautious. He had to expose his identity in advance, otherwise the empress would be prepared and they wouldn't be able to smoothly carry out their plans.

Since the emperor had betrothed Sheng Yue to Murong Yu, he couldn't fight for it. He could only find a way to stall for time. Once they succeeded, he would naturally have a way to get Yue Er to return to him.

In order to win over Wei Cheng, he would only be able to stand on their side if he married his most beloved daughter. These mufei had already made his plans for him, and the mufei had said that in the future, he would become an emperor, destined to be part of the Three Palaces and Six Houses. He could spoil Yue'er, but he couldn't only marry her, so he couldn't be merciful now.

However, how could he give up on her? She trusted him so much, and after so many years, the love and affection she had for her was already a habit. How could he just watch her marry someone else, even if that person was his brother?

He really wanted to bring her away like this and hide her somewhere where no one could find her. Why was she the daughter of the Prime Minister? If it was just the little girl in his mansion, then no one would have any objections if she was always by his side. Right now, he was regretting his decision to support her to return and recognize her ancestors, so he thought it was for her own good. He wanted to let her have a good status so that she wouldn't be bullied in the future, but now …

It could be seen that he admired Prime Minister Yun. It was a pity that his daughter had fallen for him, but it was just a design for her to meet him once. That foolish woman had already given herself to him, and before his identity had been revealed, the general would be surprised when he found out, so there was no need to be envious anymore.

The prime minister was actually loyal to his mother as well. He didn't know what kind of relationship the previous generation had, but since the prime minister knew of their true identities, he didn't dare to rashly agree when the emperor was proposing marriage. He only returned to the father when he asked the imperial mother for permission, and the imperial mother requested the prime minister to stand by Murong Yu's side for the time being.

Thinking of this, Baili Yu's heart ached. Yue'er had truly suffered greatly. She had met such a heartless father, and she had also met him who was still unable to completely protect her.

"Yue Er, you should first agree to the king's marriage."

"What?" Yun Sheng's eyes widened in disbelief.

"What did you say?" I must have heard wrong. " Yun Shengyue had never expected Baili Yu to come so late to persuade her to marry. She could only endure the trembling that felt like she had fallen into an icehouse as she asked in disbelief.

Yue'er, the Emperor bestowed the marriage upon you, and the Prime Minister and you are not allowed to disobey him, not to mention, the Baili family is not allowed to disobey the decree. Since things have gotten to this point, there is only one possibility, since you are still young, so you should first set down the engagement so that we can delay the marriage for half a year.

"NO!" I don't know what you're talking about! How could a wedding be ruined? They say that Jun Wu Yi is not joking... " To think that he would allow himself to be engaged to someone else. Yun Sheng's mind was thrown into turmoil. She pinched her left hand tightly, hoping that this was just a nightmare.

"Yue Er, there are some things that are very complicated, I can't tell you right now, can you wait according to what I tell you?" I'll tell you the whole story in half a year, and then you'll understand my difficulties. "

"Just tell me, no matter what it is, as long as I can do it, I'll definitely help you. Let's solve this problem together, don't leave me behind …"

However, he had promised his mufei that he could only be ruthless. As long as they sped up their actions, they would be successful in the near future. At that time, he would do everything in his power to make up for his debt to Yue Er.

"Yue Er, I won't leave you behind. Really, as long as half a year, we will definitely be together." Baili Yu clenched Yun Shengyue's hand and said with certainty.

He had a sincere look in his eyes and his expression was firm. However, could the marriage bestowed by the Emperor be annulled so easily in the future? She asked quietly, "What is it? "Why must I wait for half a year? Perhaps I shouldn't have come to Jin City, I shouldn't have returned to the Residence of Yun at all."

"I'll tell you later." It was an extremely important matter and he couldn't tell her about it now. He could only advise, "Your father treats you and your daughter quite well. You accompany your mother more. When you marry me in the future, I'm afraid you'll have to part with her."

"Really?" Why should I be separated from my mother? " Yun Sheng suddenly began to feel indecisive. He had forgotten his earlier worries. She had never thought of parting with her mother.

"Silly girl, when you marry someone, you must leave your parents. How could you marry someone with your mother?" Although his Yue'er was intelligent and stubborn, she was still naive and cute to the point that he couldn't help but want to love her a little more.

Yun Shengyue pouted and said, "What if I want to bring mother along? Don't you want to? "

"As long as your mother is willing, of course I will be fine. Be obedient and don't think too much about it, and obediently wait for me in Jincheng. After everything is settled, I will be the one staying in Jincheng, and even if you marry me, you won't be far from your mother, you will be able to see her at any time."

"Do you mean what you say? "I was afraid that you would ignore me after returning to the Wind City. You didn't even reply to my previous letter …" For the past three months, her heart had been hanging in mid-air as she let her thoughts run wild. She had speculated about the reason and was afraid that something had happened to him.

Baili Yu gently embraced Sheng Yue and said gently, "It's my fault. I've been working outside for the past few months and forgot to tell the manor to send your letter to me. Therefore …"

"Then in the future …"

"Definitely not in the future. I do have a lot of important things to do in this half a year. Can I write a letter to you every month?"

"Good!" "I'm not an unreasonable person. Previously, you said that you would be back in Jincheng in a month at the most, but I've waited for three months and there wasn't any news at all. That's why I'm worried. I was worried about you …"

"It's all my fault." Baili Yu gently stroked Sheng Yue's jet-black hair and said, "It won't happen again, I promise …"

Under the moon, how many people have made a promise, and how many have actually achieved it? Yun Shengyue felt somewhat fearful in her heart. However, she had no choice but to obey Baili Yu's request. How could she bear to make things difficult for him!?
