Chen Yuanyuan and Wang Yue hugged each other sadly. When they were crying sorrowful, Zhen Youcai's voice suddenly sounded outside the tent: "Madam, can the villain come in and say something?"

"Mr. Zhen?" Chen Yuanyuan hurriedly wiped away the tears on her cheeks and whispered, "Please come in."

Zhen Youcai lifted the curtain and walked in, first bowed, then lowered his head and said, "Madam, there is a saying that villains must say."

Chen Yuanyuan said: "Sir, please tell me."

Zhen Youcai said: "When the villain returned to the camp, he happened to see Lord Chen, the Minister of War, go out. If the villain guessed correctly, Lord Chen must have come to find his wife?"

Chen Yuanyuan nodded and replied: "Yes."

Zhen Youcai said: "Although the villain didn't hear what Mr. Chen said to you, he could think of what he would say to you with his toes! Madam, at this critical moment, you must not go to the Heavenly Prison to meet the general, and you cannot listen to Mr. Chen's nonsense and seek suspicion."

Chen Yuanyuan said in surprise: "Sir, you?"

Zhen Youcai still lowered his head and did not dare to look directly at Chen Yuanyuan and Wang Yue, and said, "Mrs. I thought he was an obstacle between the general and His Highness the Princess. I thought that as long as I died, I could become the son-in-law of the Long Live King. The general would no longer have any worries about his life. In fact, the opposite is true. If you really seek short-sighted opinions, with the general's temperament, he would never be a prince-consort. At that time, he would be afraid that he would rebel immediately, and then he would really not be able to survive."

Chen Yuanyuan is smart, and Zhen Youcai will understand after she said that.

If Chen Yuanyuan committed suicide at this time, Wang Pu would obviously put the accounts on the heads of Emperor Wansui and Chen Xinjia, and would think that Emperor Wansui had forced Chen Yuanyuan to death. With Wang Pu's temperament, it would be impossible for him to be a prince consort. In this way, Wang Pu would actually harm Wang Pu.

Thinking of the fear, Chen Yuanyuan couldn't help but feel scared and sweated, and said respectfully to Zhen Youcai.

Zhen Youcai continued: "Madam, the general is playing games with Long Sui. Long Sui is going to force the general to divorce his wife and remarry him, but the general insists on using Madam as a balance wife. Now it depends on who can't waste anyone, and whoever can't waste first will have to make concessions! At this critical moment, Madam, you must not visit Tianzhu, so as not to cause trouble."

Chen Yuanyuan nodded and said, "I understand, please give me more Mr. Zhen a reminder."

Zhen Youcai bowed and said, "Since the lady has figured it out, the villain will take his leave first. The villain will have to go to Tian Guojiu's mansion later, and want to walk through Tian Guojiu's path to Concubine Tian."

Two days later, Kunning Palace.

Princess Changping came to pay tribute to Empress Zhou as usual. Because Emperor Chongzhen issued a ban order, the palace no longer dared to openly discuss the marriage between His Highness the Princess and Wang Pu. But this matter had become a thorn in Princess Changping's heart, making her unable to sleep or eat well. She lost weight in just two days.

Princess Changping had never seen Wang Pu's face. Although she admired Wang Pu very much, she couldn't talk about any feelings. She was so tormented because she was worried about her marriage. Although Emperor Chongzhen issued a ban in the palace, he also forbidden all officials from discussing this matter, as if she wanted to force everyone who knew about it to forget this matter.

But Princess Changping can't forget it.

The good women of this era attach great importance to reputation regardless of their status. Emperor Chongzhen had already agreed to marry in public. If Princess Changping could not marry Wang Pu in the end, her reputation would be the greatest defilement. From then on, she would no longer have the shame to marry others again, and she didn't even want to live.

Looking at her increasingly thin daughter, Empress Zhou had no choice but to go to the palace to visit her father-in-law Zhou could only shake her head and sigh.

"Oh." Zhou Guozhang sighed and said sadly, "It's really a miserable child Ru'er."

Queen Zhou choked and said, "I don't know how this matter ends."

While the two were talking, the second son of the emperor Zhu Cijiong suddenly rushed into Kunning Palace in a hurry. Daxiang shouted: "My mother, it's spread everywhere, it's spread everywhere."

Queen Zhou glared at Zhu Cijiong and scolded: "What has it spread all over?"

Zhu Cijiong said: "Of course it was the love story of Wang Pu and the fireworks woman entangled Mian. Oh, and the marriage between the emperor and Wang Pu. Now the people in Beijing are saying that their father wants to force Wang Pu to divorce his wife and marry the emperor's sister again, but Wang Pu Ning refused to surrender and was not to be Chen Shimei."

"Ah?" Queen Zhou said in a lost voice, "Has this spread throughout the capital?"

"Yes." Zhu Cijiong nodded, "Now the nine opera troupes in Beijing and many storytellers in teahouses and taverns are rapping Wang Pu's plays. They all say that Wang Pu is loyal and loyal, and refuses to divorce him and remarry him, but his father and Chen Xinjia insist on forcing him to divorce his wife and remarry him."

"Ah, this is spreading?"

"What should I do?"

The father-in-law Zhou Kui and the queen looked at each other.

"My mother, my daughter is not alive."

Princess Changping cried with a sad cry and left.

■■■

Qianqing Palace.

Wang Chengen ran into the warm pavilion panting, knelt down and gasped, "Long live the emperor, it's not good."

Emperor Chongzhen asked without raising his head, "What happened?"

Wang Chengen said: "I just got the news that the nine opera troupes in the capital and many storytellers in teahouses and taverns are talking about General Wang and His Royal Highness. Now the people in the capital already know this."

"What did you say?" Emperor Chongzhen suddenly looked up and asked in a deep voice, "The fact that I want to betroth Ru'er to Wang Pu has spread throughout the capital?"

Wang Chengen said bitterly: "Long live, what else is there."

Emperor Chongzhen asked with a dark face: "What else?"

Wang Chengen said: "It is also said that Wang Pu is unwilling to divorce his wife and remarry him, but the Lord Chen of the Minister of War had to force him to divorce his wife."

"It's really... it's really outrageous."

Emperor Chongzhen was furious, but his tone was inevitably filled with guilt.

When Emperor Chongzhen personally agreed to marry, all the civil servants and generals of the seventh rank and above in the capital were present. It was not surprising that this matter was spread. Moreover, it is meaningless to investigate who leaked the news and cannot be investigated. What's bad is that the news has spread throughout the capital, and it is too late to ban it.

This makes things extremely difficult. Emperor Chongzhen is already in a difficult position. If Wang Pu is killed, it will confirm the rumors. At that time, Wang Pu can be known as having feelings and righteousness, but Emperor Chongzhen will be accused of breaking up the couple. Wouldn't that be slap himself in the face?

The most important thing is that the court will also lose a general who can conquer a war-going general! This is what Emperor Chongzhen least wants to see.

If Emperor Chongzhen was going with the flow and gave Princess Changping to Wang Pu as his wife, Emperor Chongzhen could not swallow his breath, but the dignified princess would be on par with a fireworks woman. Where did the royal face be put? Besides, Emperor Chongzhen was the emperor and the supreme emperor, so how could the emperor give in to the general and compromise?

Emperor Chongzhen paced back and forth with his hands behind his back for a few steps, and suddenly shouted: "Wang Cheng'en."

Wang Chengen rushed forward two steps, and replied, "I am here."

Emperor Chongzhen shouted in a deep voice: "You go to Tianzhu immediately and bring me a message to Wang Pu, and say I will give him two roads. First, I will immediately leave the fireworks woman and become my son-in-law who is a dragon. Second, tomorrow at noon, I will take her to Caishikou with the slave chief Huang Taiji and make it!

Forced by the situation, Emperor Chongzhen had to show off in advance.

"Ah?" Wang Chengen made a cold war with a trembling voice, "Cai...Cai?"

Emperor Chongzhen said angrily: "Why don't you go quickly!"

Wang Chengen asked carefully: "Long live, is this a secret or..."

"This is not a secret order!" Emperor Chongzhen said loudly, "Didn't the censors Liu Zongzhou and Li Banghua jointly submit a memorial to punish Wang Pu's death penalty? I will now approve their memorial and punish Wang Pu severely and severely. I will take it to Caishikou at noon tomorrow for a prison sentence to serve as a warning!"
