He thought that this was very much for Shu Wenqi's sake.

"Miss Shu has been in love with you since she was a child, but you push her to others?" Princess Zhen knew Xie Zhan's attitude to some extent, otherwise she wouldn't have made a special trip to find Mingxiu.

But at this time, Mingxiu pretended that she did not exist, and her attitude of pretending to be stupid made Princess Zhen secretly resentful.

She turned to look at Mingxiu and sighed: "Showa, you are also a woman. You should know that being a woman is difficult. It is not easy to have someone you love in life. Why bother?"

Holding Mingxiu's hand, Princess Zhen's expression was extremely sincere, "You are the princess. Don't worry, even if Miss Shu enters the palace, it will never affect your status. She is just a concubine. I will treat it as yours."

As an assistant, it can be said that she is completely infatuated with her. Come to think of it, you wouldn't be unwilling to do it, right?"

Speaking of the latter part, Princess Zhen's eyes already had a hint of threat.

As long as Mingxiu reveals even the slightest bit of reluctance, he will be labeled as jealous.

Now she and Xie Zhan are only engaged but not married. Can a jealous person become a princess?

If she refuses, it is reasonable to use this reason to regret the marriage.

The look in Princess Zhen's eyes clearly meant this.

Mingxiu is not worried about her engagement being annulled, she is even eager to do so, but this does not affect her desire to protect her reputation.

But just when she was about to speak, she heard Xie Zhan say: "Will all the women who like me have to be married to the palace? Isn't it my son's boast? There are dozens if not a hundred women in the capital who want to marry me. Do they have to welcome me?"

Enter the mansion?"

So what would the censor say about him?

Although Princess Zhen was a little confused, she still valued her son's reputation.

More importantly, Xie Zhan was beginning to feel a little impatient.

"How can those women be the same as Miss Shu?"

Shu Wenqi was her favorite, and she thought she was the safest candidate to be Xie Zhan's concubine.

Of course, this does not mean that Princess Jane will not continue to see each other.

But she felt that since Xie Zhan liked Mingxiu, he would not favor other women for a long time after they got married.

One Shu Wenqi is just right, any more would be inappropriate.

Who would have known that just Shu Wenqi would cause Xie Zhan to have such a big reaction.

Princess Zhen's eyes fell on Mingxiu, and she obviously wanted her to come to the rescue.

After all, she was Xie Zhan's mother. Even Mingxiu was disgusted with the concubine entering the house. At this time, she had to help to speak.

Otherwise, if Princess Jane wants to embarrass her in the future, what else can she do?

Xie Zhan's face was stern, "Concubine, there is no need to embarrass Zhaohe. She can't decide on this matter. Without my nod, no woman can even think of entering the palace!"

Does it mean that he has kept his integrity for so many years?

If he could make do, why bother waiting until he was twenty to get married?

You know, when the prince was twenty years old, he had several children, although none of them survived.

Princess Zhen's expression changed, as if she no longer recognized her son.

She looked at Xie Zhan inquiringly, "So, you are not going to listen to my mother's words?"

Is this being unfilial?

Xie Zhan naturally would not be unfilial.

"My son doesn't dare." He nodded respectfully. When Princess Zhen thought he was going to compromise, Xie Zhan straightened up and said, "It's just that the mother did something wrong. It would be unfilial for a son not to properly advise him."

Looking around, Xie Zhan seemed to be hesitant to speak.

Princess Zhen frowned. Although she was dissatisfied, she finally decided to believe her son.

He glanced at the palace people around him and motioned for them all to get down.

After the person left, Xie Zhancai whispered: "Mother, my Majesty has great trust in me now. If you want to escape unscathed in the future, you have to cut off everything and don't be greedy for power. No matter how good Miss Shu is, she can't hold her back."

The father of the Minister of Taichang Temple."

Staring closely into Princess Zhen's eyes, Xie Zhan said word by word: "No matter how powerful you are, is it more important than your son's life?"

Being able to live in a cannibalistic harem for most of her life, the late emperor's harem was even more perilous. Under such circumstances, Princess Jane could still safely enjoy the exclusive favor of the late emperor. She was certainly not stupid.

She was woken up by Xie Zhan in a daze, and she looked at her son puzzledly, "But... if you want to be safe, shouldn't you take control of the power?"

If all the power is lost, wouldn’t it mean that people will be killed by swords?

Giving Mingxiu a confused look, Princess Zhen was very suspicious. This was an excuse made up by Xie Zhan for Mingxiu.

Even if it's for Mingxiu, Xie Zhan's words are true.

And it can be regarded as fitting the deepest fear in Mingxiu's heart.

"The power in this world will eventually return to the emperor."

He gave Princess Zhen a meaningful look. He had always believed that speaking to smart people did not require being too thorough.

At this time, he has made it very clear, and I believe that Princess Zhen can think clearly on her own.

The amount of information in these words was a bit large, so Xie Zhan did not dwell on it. After explaining clearly what he needed to say and what he wanted to say, he respectfully bowed to Princess Zhen and left.

He took Mingxiu and left carelessly.

Not only did he solve Princess Zhen, he also had to explain to Mingxiu why Princess Zhen insisted on letting him marry Shu Wenqi?

Although Xie Zhan was really innocent, he knew that if he explained to Mingxiu that this matter had nothing to do with him, Mingxiu would not believe it.

But who knew, just when Xie Zhan was about to speak, Mingxiu asked directly, "What your mother-in-law said was not your intention, was it?"

Xie Zhan's eyes lit up, "You know everything?"

The unbearable feeling came again, Mingxiu turned her head and covered her face, "If you really like Shu Wenqi, why bother to ignore her? Just ask her to join the house, I believe that is to let her

She is also happy to be my concubine."

Although the feeling of being understood made Xie Zhan feel good, at the same time, Mingxiu's indifferent attitude also made him feel suffocated.

When I met Princess Zhen last time, she was still very angry when talking about my concubine. Why now...

Xie Zhan looked at Mingxiu suspiciously, and couldn't help but begin to suspect that the reason for her anger last time was not actually because there was another woman around him, right?

Is it just that she can't tolerate herself as a concubine?

Although I hate to admit it, this may indeed be true.

After all, from the beginning to the end, Mingxiu showed her appreciation and love for him, but she never strongly wanted to marry him. On the contrary, he always persisted.

Staring at Mingxiu closely, Xie Zhan suddenly said: "Don't you like me that much?"

"ah?"

Looking at Xie Zhan inexplicably, Mingxiu was really confused.

Aren't they discussing Shu Wenqi's affairs? Why did it suddenly come to this?

Such a reaction made Xie Zhan feel even more angry, and he pinched Mingxiu's shoulders, "Why were you not unhappy at all when you learned that Shu Wenqi wanted to be my concubine?"

It seemed that he suddenly understood what he was angry about.

Twitching her lips, Mingxiu didn't expect that Xie Zhan would have such a little girl side.

Looking at him helplessly, Mingxiu said: "You have no intention of actually marrying her, so why should I be unhappy? Do you think I will be angry for a long time if you get a woman in front of me?"

Don't be ridiculous, the ratio of men to women in this world is equal. She has to meet men every day when she goes out. If Xie Zhan really has this intention, then they both should do nothing and stay at home all day without seeing anyone.

.

...There are still girls and boys at home.

Xie Zhan also knew this was impossible, but he still couldn't understand why a woman who was obviously interested in him came up to her, but Mingxiu didn't show any signs of getting angry.

When someone was thinking about her, he secretly felt depressed for a long time, and at the same time, he used various reasons to drive the person away!

This matter seemed a bit crazy to talk about, so Xie Zhan quickly skipped it.

"You just don't like me!"

Staring at her angrily, Xie Zhan turned his head, obviously not intending to take care of him anymore.

Why is it that the closer the wedding date gets, the more this person acts like a child?

Mingxiu had no experience at all in coaxing people, whether they were adults or children.

She looked at him silently, thinking about how to break the predicament.

Xie Zhan became even more angry after not seeing her take the initiative to speak for a long time.

"Why are not you talking?!"

It felt like his eyes were turning red.
