During lunch, Nian Ruyi talked about this with Yuan Lie.

"I only cut a few small pieces of deer whip and chopped into diced diced pieces. I stewed it so hard that I added a few spices to cover the taste. I guess my father couldn't eat it. Concubine Xiao tried his best to compete for favor."

Yuan Lie could see a lot in front of him, but Nian Ruyi was still used to picking up food for him, putting everything he liked to eat in front of him, and putting it into his bowl one by one.

While talking, I was happy and happy.

Yuan Lie's face was full of happiness, and he couldn't even feel the pain vaguely transmitted on his legs for the time being. He said, "That's the matter in his father's house. We only watch the fun and don't mix it up."

"I don't mix with it. It's not nice to say that my daughter-in-law is involved in the matter of being involved in the father-in-law's yard. However, I'm very curious why Concubine Xiao had to plot against her father at this time?"

Plot, yes, in Nian Ruyi's eyes, Concubine Xiao gave Prince Yuan a deer whip soup, which was like giving aphrodisiac, which was also a kind of plot to compete for favor.

It’s just that they are a couple, and there are many women in Prince Yuan’s backyard. Concubine Xiao will use his scheming to compete for favor, which is a normal method. Therefore, Nian Ruyi did not tell Yi Wu bluntly.

Yuan Lie raised his eyebrows, put down his chopsticks, and said, "On the day we got married, General Xiao and Xiao Lan came to congratulate him. They stayed for a while and had dinner before going back. However, early the next morning, Mrs. Xiao was retired by General Xiao."

Nian Ruyi exclaimed, "Why?"

Before, Mrs. Xiao had so many scandals that General Xiao did not divorce her wife, and she was just jailed in the inner courtyard of the Xiao family. Could it be that Mrs. Xiao did something wrong when General Xiao came to the Yuan Palace?

Sure enough, Yuan Lie said, "That day, Mrs. Xiao sneaked out of the Xiao family and went to see Princess Nan, and even privately agreed to betroth Xiao Jingwen to Princess Nan as a concubine."

Xiao Jingwen had a crush on Yuan Lie before, but after seeing that there was no hope of marrying Yuan Lie, she fell in love with the Seventh Prince again. Unfortunately, the royal family had rules. Even if Xiao Jingwen cried and made a fuss about marrying the Seventh Prince, General Xiao also wanted to use military merits to exchange for this marriage because of her love for her daughter. Unfortunately, the emperor did not agree in the end.

In addition, the emperor also made a marriage for the seventh prince as soon as possible, which completely shattered Xiao Jingwen's dream of becoming the seventh prince's concubine.

A trace of coldness flashed in Yuan Lie's eyes and said, "The Xiao family has been supported by the Yuan family until now, but Mrs. Xiao wants to betray the Yuan family and want to marry the Nanwang Mansion. The second master Xiao betrayed the Yuan family and the Xiao family and went to join the Nanwang Mansion. This incident made General Xiao lose his most beloved eldest daughter. Mrs. Xiao did this to expose General Xiao's scars. How could General Xiao tolerate her?"

"Yesterday, my father told me something that General Xiao wanted to betroth Xiao Jingwen to Yuan Jinyi, and my father asked me what I mean."

When Nian Ruyi heard this, she frowned, "I'm afraid it's hard to refuse this."

Once Prince Yuan rejects General Xiao’s proposal, General Xiao’s heart will probably have a greater gap with Prince Yuan’s Mansion. One day, he will be afraid that he will backfire on Prince Yuan’s Mansion.

If you agree to this marriage, the gap between the Yuan Prince's Mansion and the Xiao family can be filled. Since then, the Yuan family and the Xiao family have become in-laws.

This marriage has more advantages than disadvantages.
