C153 It Was the Fault of the Husband

In the next few days, Duan Shuang returned to his mansion to recuperate.

"Your Highness, the Crown Prince of Qi Country is about to enter the capital." When Anzhao received the news, he immediately reported it to Duan Shuang.

"Oh?" Duan Shuang fell into deep thought.

"This time, the Qi Country's Crown Prince has brought along an official document and entered our Great Yan with a great fanfare. Your Highness, should we strengthen our troops to keep an eye on him?"

"Those people, let's see if there are any movements."

"No."

" There's no need to keep an eye on them in private. There will naturally be someone in the court to handle this matter. "

"All along, the one who deals with foreign affairs has always been the Minister of the Right. Could it be that he has full authority over this matter?"

"Hsiang Xuanfei is a righteous official. Let him handle it. "And..." Alright. The Crown Prince of Qi Country isn't a good-for-nothing. If we send someone to keep an eye on him, it will be hard to avoid alerting the enemy. Furthermore, this king has nothing to do with these matters of the Imperial Court. If we interfere now, our prey will inevitably become suspicious."

"But, Your Highness, he is the Crown Prince of Qi Country. Aren't you afraid that he will cause more trouble if you don't do anything about it?"

"He is not a stupid person. Since he was being honest and honest this time, he naturally did not need to worry that he would play tricks in the dark. Maybe he'll be our help." Duan Shuang smiled confidently.

Seeing that Duan Shuang was confident, Anzhao also backed off.

At this moment, Xing Zheng, who was also the Qi Country's Crown Prince who had changed his name to Lan Hong, had arrived at the station in the outskirts of the capital.

"It seems like what you said isn't false." Xing Zheng saw that the person who came to receive him was Hsiang Xuanfei, not Duan Shuang. "Is Zhen'an King seriously injured and resting at home?"

"Even if Prince is not injured, I am the one who came today." Hsiang Xuanfei's words and actions had both respect for the Crown Prince of the neighboring country and the demeanor of a great country.

"Today, please rest well, Prince Xing. Tomorrow, I will lead the Crown Prince to pay his respects to the Emperor."

"Then I will have to trouble Lord Xing."

After Hsiang Xuanfei left, the officials beside Xing Zheng immediately became worried.

"Crown Prince, what should we do now? We can't even count on Zhen'an King at this critical moment."

"Lord Lee, don't panic for now. If we can get Duan Shuang's help... To us, it's just icing on the cake. Although without his help, we will definitely thank him for his help. However, I didn't put Duan Shuang in my plan for this trip. Besides, what exactly happened to Duan Shuang was that we had to enter the capital first. Let's investigate further."

"Since the Crown Prince already has a plan, I'm relieved."

"We are only allowed to succeed on this trip, so after entering the capital, we must be extra careful with our words and actions, and not make any mistakes!"

"Yes, this lowly subject accepts!"

Yang Residence.

"Daughter, although Zhen'an King doesn't have any military authority, he now has one more financial authority. His Royal Highness is still a hot potato. You have to seize this opportunity!" Madam Yang advised Yang Lanqing for a few days, but she still did not give an answer.

"Say something!" Yang's mother could not help but become anxious.

"Mother, you have to let me think about it, right?"

"What else are you thinking about? That Princess Renxi is running towards Zhen'an King every day. If you don't hurry up, all your previous efforts will be in vain."

"After this matter, Bai Jiegeng and the Royal Highness will definitely forget about their past grudges. It was because of Jiegeng that I was able to get close to the web page. Now, Jiegeng must have said many bad things about me in front of the Royal Highness."

"Men have three wives and four concubines, let alone a Prince!" Yang's mother carefully explained, "Now that Princess Renxi has yet to enter the Imperial Residence, you and her are competing fairly. If you wait for her to enter the Imperial Residence, you will want to win the favour of the prince. It will be difficult!"

"Listen to my mother's advice, even being a side princess is good now. With your mother around, are you afraid that you won't be able to beat that country girl?"

Yang's mother had been adding oil to the fire and Yang Lanqing's desire also became stronger and stronger.

"Alright, I will go and visit His Royal Highness tomorrow."

"That's more like it!" Yang's mother immediately smiled from ear to ear. "Don't be like your sister again, liking a powerless duke. If I knew this would happen, I would have sent your sister into the Palace long ago!"

Yang Lanqing nodded.

The next day, Jiegeng went to the Zhen'an King's Mansion as usual.

"Brother Sheng, didn't I tell you? Don't tire yourself out now."

Jiegeng left the manor early in the morning. When she found that Duan Shuang was reading the official documents again, she could not help but feel annoyed.

Jiegeng put down the things in her hands and immediately walked to Duan Shuang and snatched the official document from him. "Didn't you already leave the Imperial Court? Where did the official document come from?"

"I naturally have a lot of details to understand when I take over the Imperial Court." Duan Shuang got up and pinched Jiegeng's small face.

"Don't treat me like a little girl and coax me. I won't fall for your trick!" Jiegeng immediately pushed Duan Shuang's hand away and pouted her cherry lips.

"You still say it's not a little girl?" Duan Shuang shook his head. The smile on his face could not be hidden.

"I thought I was the person who would only be stunned by you in the past. Dream on!" Jiegeng pouted at Duan Shuang.

Duan Shuang sighed. "Indeed, I like you in the past."

"Just like Yang Lanqing?" Jiegeng came up with jealousy.

Duan Shuang scratched Jiegeng's nose. "She even said she saw through it! Now you are jealous."

Jiegeng rolled her eyes at Duan Shuang. Seeing through and being jealous were two completely different things! Would that woman really be so generous to see that the man she loved had another woman beside him?

"Your Highness, Miss Yang requests an audience." After the servant finished reporting, he immediately retreated to the side, afraid that he would bring harm to the innocent.

"Look, this child is eagerly catching up."

"Did you bring the vinegar bowl today? This sour taste is too strong!" Duan Shuang could only laugh at the side.

After receiving Jiegeng's eye blade repeatedly, Duan Shuang immediately admitted his mistake, "Alright, just don't see her."

"Wait!" Jiegeng immediately changed her expression. "Let her come in and wait in the main hall." Jiegeng said to the subordinate who came to report in an indecisive manner.

The servant looked at Duan Shuang in horror. Duan Shuang smiled and nodded.

After receiving the order, the servant immediately disappeared.

"Why do you want to see her again?"

"I, Jiegeng, may be kind and magnanimous. However, I am definitely not facing those people who schemed against me!" Jiegeng pursed her lips, "If I don't tease her properly, how can I vent the hatred in my heart?! This Yang Lanqing is much more detestable than Ho Lingloong and Lau Yunyan. I treat her sincerely. Yet she plotted against me like this."

Duan Shuang nodded his head in agreement. At this moment, he must not let the fire burn on his body.

"At the end of the day, the one who is most detestable is still you!" Jiegeng turned her head and immediately started to criticize Duan Shuang.

Duan Shuang had an expression that he could not hide and felt wronged.

"If you did not repeatedly give her a chance, would she be so proud?"

"Okay, okay, okay. It's my fault."

"What?!" Jiegeng immediately punched Duan Shuang in the chest. "You are talking nonsense again."

"When my injuries are all healed, I will marry you immediately. It will not be a problem for me to marry you in a few days."

"Hmph, I am not marrying you!"
