After careful consideration, Xiao Yuanyi still asked Cheng Shi to take Cheng Shaoshang to Ling Buyi to express his gratitude.The two came to a house. From the door, it could be seen that it must be Shi Ling Buyi. Two teams of neat and solemn guards could be seen at the entrance. There were no maids and maids, and it seemed too empty and deserted. Rather than saying that this was an official residence of a powerful person,It's better to say it's a military camp.However, Ling Buyi's attitude towards Cheng Shi was far colder than that in the mansion. Cheng Shaoshang noticed something strange and exchanged a few words before standing up to leave.Just as Cheng Shi and his daughter were walking out the door, Liang Qiuqi suddenly stopped him and led Cheng Shaoshang back to the main hall on the pretext of identifying the jade pendant.Originally, Cheng Shi wanted to follow him, but when he heard that Liang Qiuqi wanted to ask him for military advice, he left in a hurry, leaving Cheng Shaoshang to deal with Ling Buyi alone.Ling Buyi, who had pretended to be cold before, actually changed his attitude when facing Cheng Shaoshang, complaining that Cheng Shaoshang didn't care about him at all.

Ling Buyi wanted to have a few more words with Cheng Shaoshang, but he heard that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had brought Princess Yuchang, and Yuan Shen and Wang Jin also followed.As soon as Wang Jin appeared, she began to ridicule Cheng Shaoshang. She was indeed a good sister of Princess Yuchang.Yuan Shen saw that the atmosphere was not right, so he explained that he was just here to say thank you.Cheng Shaoshang reprimanded Wang Jin for being sanctimonious on the surface, but in reality she was very dark inside. She swore a poisonous oath on the spot to prove her innocence. Ling Buyi directly issued an eviction order to protect Cheng Shaoshang, and the prince and Princess Yuchang had no choice but to leave in anger.At the same time, the third prince met the prince at the door and learned that Ling Buyi closed the door to thank guests, so he asked someone to send him supplements.The whereabouts of Han Wu, the messenger officer of the Huo family, are unknown. He only appeared today and told the truth about the battle of Gucheng.

Originally, the Marquis of Yue and King Qian'an received military reports and should go to support them. However, they encountered a miasma on the way and were unable to break through, so they were delayed for three days. However, Han Wu felt very strange.At that time, the Marquis of Yue sent a team of soldiers and horses to detect the miasma, and all of them died. Later, some people actually saw the horses appearing in the military camp, including the doctor who examined the injuries and disappeared for no reason. The authenticity of the miasma needs to be verified.In recent years, Han Wu wanted to summon his old troops back to Beijing to face the Holy Spirit, but he was frequently assassinated. He had no choice but to live in the market until now, hoping to find a doctor to find out the truth.Because Wang Jin spread rumors to the outside world, Cheng Shaoshang fell into the trap of gossip. Emperor Wen was furious when he learned about this and decided to bring her and Ling Buyi into good relations as soon as possible.

Empress Xuan's mention of the fifth princess's marriage also gave Emperor Wen a headache. Most men and women in this world are criticized by others, not to mention that the fifth princess has a bad reputation.At the suggestion of Empress Xuan, Emperor Wen ordered someone to summon Cheng Shaoshang to the palace. At the beginning of the day, the couple set off with their daughter. During this period, Xiao Yuanyi repeatedly asked Cheng Shaoshang not to forget to kneel down and worship.Cheng Shaoshang followed his old habit of lifting the curtain and looking out. He saw the magnificent double-story gates standing on both sides of the palace gate, like ancient giants, which was daunting.When the carriage arrived at the palace gate, Emperor Wen issued another oral order, allowing the Cheng family's female family members to ride into the palace.Cheng Shaoshang followed the example of his parents and paid homage to the empress. Because of her liveliness and eloquent conversation, she immediately won the favor of Emperor Wen. He left the Cheng family to dine in the palace. Empress Xuan sent someone to see Cheng Shaoshang off to the Changqiu Palace first.While the queen was changing clothes, Cheng Shaoshang carefully looked at the building structure in the palace, and he was very excited.

The Holy Emperor decided to betroth the fifth princess to the son of the Marquis of Yue, which not only maintained the relationship between the monarch and his ministers, but also allowed the interests of each other to survive.The fifth princess was very dissatisfied with this, so she went to Queen Xuan to complain.As soon as she finished speaking, Queen Xuan hurriedly scolded the fifth princess and strictly ordered her not to make such arrogant comments in the future.What's more, there were many faces in the Fifth Princess's house, and Queen Xuan turned a blind eye. If the bottom line was really touched, she would definitely not tolerate it anymore and warned her to end all contacts with her sons as soon as possible.On the other hand, the third princess was also chatting with Concubine Yue, and mentioned the marriage of the fifth princess with schadenfreude. Concubine Yue knew very well that her nephew was a profligate person, and it was understandable even if she did not want to marry such a person.As for the third princess, she was once very fond of Ling Buyi and was later ordered to marry the Xuan family. It was all because Ling Buyi did not like the third princess.

However, Concubine Yue didn't want to get involved in this kind of thing. She just wanted to live in peace for the rest of her life, and she shouldn't sacrifice herself for a little benefit.After the fifth princess was reprimanded by Empress Xuan, she felt very aggrieved. Then when she went out, she happened to see Cheng Shaoshang, and without asking, she was scolded with a cane.Cheng Shaoshang was naturally unconvinced and bluntly said that the fifth princess was too loud. These words made the fifth princess angry and insisted on teaching Cheng Shaoshang a lesson.
