Marry a Duke

Chapter 135 Don’t be impulsive

"I'm just guessing. If this is really possible, Princess Mingyue should be on guard." Fu Ran didn't say much and was still being pulled by Yuan Xin's pigtails.

"When you say this, you should have considered Mingyue's state of mind at the moment. She will definitely be thinking in that direction. She has never been forced by anyone since she was a child. Now someone is forcing her to get married and wants to covet things in the Prince Shou's Mansion. Do you think she can let it go?" Yuan Xin flicked his sleeves and ran to chase Mingyue.

Fu Ran also hurried over.

She forgot that talking too much will lead to mistakes.

In fact, what happened to the Shouwang Mansion had nothing to do with her.

Whether Mingyue marries the Huo family or not has nothing to do with her.

She can't control other people's affairs.

But Mingyue was simple in nature, hated evil, and never really looked down on her. When Prince Shou passed away, leaving behind an orphan and a widow, it was indeed difficult for her to keep everything that Prince Shou left behind.

Even many people in the capital did not know that Prince Shou had a fiefdom and that he came from Shouzhou.

Most people thought that Prince Shou only stayed in the capital and there was only Prince Shou's Palace.

The Huo family was once subordinates of Prince Shou, and they knew everything about this matter.

Fu Ran just thought that anyone who could get an imperial edict from the emperor must not be an official in the court. Even if Prince Shou was dead, he was not an ordinary person. She was worried that it was done by a traitor.

*** assisted the Huo family, and the Huo family married Princess Mingyue. It was natural for the next generation to inherit the title of Shouwang Mansion and take over Shouzhou. The mines in Shouzhou then belonged to the Huo family.

If the two families reach an agreement, the Huo family must give up the Shouzhou mine, and the two sides will share it, and the *** must take the majority.

That is a silver mine, and only the imperial court has the right to mine it.

Once the *** joins forces with the Huo family, they can mine secretly even without the court's approval.

Fu Ran was worried that the power of the *** would grow stronger and stronger. If one day they really overshadowed Wei Xuan, she and Wuyou's lives would not last long.

Mingyue has already selected suitable weapons in the armory.

She lost her father at a young age and was brought up in pampered circumstances, but she was not a powerless young lady. When she was young, she saw Princess Shou crying, and she determined to make herself strong to protect her mother.

She has learned martial arts, so even if she is not proficient in it, she can still show off a few moves.

But these few moves would not kill Huo Nanfeng.

Huo Nanfeng was a big and strong man, and even if Mingyue had a weapon, she might not be able to get close to him.

"Mingyue, don't be impulsive. Even if you really want to attack Huo Nanfeng, you can let others do it or give orders. You can't do it yourself. What if you get hurt?" Yuan Xin was extremely anxious and tried to hold Mingyue.

But Mingyue was so angry that even ten cows couldn't stop her.

"Don't stop me. Others are not me. I must go and ask the Huo family why they have the nerve to target my Shou Palace. How can they have the nerve?" Mingyue's eyes were red.

She couldn't believe that the emperor's decree was also helping the Huo family.

Why did this imperial edict not come earlier or later, but came at this moment?

Fu Ran is right.

They must have some agenda.

Moreover, they have persuaded the emperor to stand aside with them and keep an eye on the fat piece of meat of Prince Shou's Mansion.

"Mingyue, don't listen to Fu Ran's nonsense. She doesn't understand anything. She just said it casually. How can you take it seriously? The emperor is not that kind of person. The imperial decree has been issued. It is a favor to the Shouwang Mansion. Now that Brother Wei and Auntie have gone to the Huo family, don't be impulsive. Wait for news at home. Everything will be discussed after they come back."

Yuan Xin wished she could hold Mingyue tightly.

She called out to the maid, but under Mingyue's gaze, the maid didn't dare to come forward at all.

Yuan Xin called Fu Ran.

"This is all your fault, why don't you come and stop Mingyue."

Fu Ran stepped forward, but she did not stop Ming Yue.

Using brute force will not help.

"Princess Mingyue, you are smart and thoughtful. In this situation, you should think carefully. Even if you go to the Huo family now and kill Huo Nanfeng, what will happen?"

Mingyue hasn't thought about this problem yet.

"As long as Huo Nanfeng is killed, the original engagement will be void, and I won't have to marry into the Huo family."

"Since they can send Huo Nanfeng, they will also have Huo Xifeng and Huo Beifeng. If their goal is really the silver mine in Shouzhou, Huo Nanfeng is just a symbol, not just a person. The Huo family will definitely make this marriage happen, but the princess will have to bear the crime of murder."

Fu Ran had no idea who the Huo family members were. They were the old subordinates of Prince Shou, and they had never come to Prince Shou's mansion for all these years. This showed that they had never had much ambition for Shouzhou.

But now, they have come to the door, even though Prince Shou has passed away for many years.

She thought that if it was really done by ***, *** must have taken advantage of their weaknesses.

Coercion or inducement.

"Your cousin is right. Now we should just wait for news from the princess and the Duke in the mansion."

Fu Ran explained everything clearly, and Mingyue had a plan in mind.

She has not given up the idea of ​​killing Huo Nanfeng, but this matter is indeed not to be rushed.

Now mother and brother Xuan are both in the Huo family.

They don't know the meaning of the imperial edict yet.

But the Huo family must know about it.

"No, I will send someone to wait at the door of the Huo family immediately. If the marriage cannot be cancelled, I will let mother and brother Xuan know the emperor's order as soon as possible."

Mingyue ordered her followers to go to the Huo family.

She calmed down temporarily, but her mood could not calm down for a long time.

Yuan Xin tried to persuade him softly, and Fu Ran stopped talking.

Yuan Xin looked towards Fu Ran from time to time.

Fu Ran pretended not to see anything.

"Princess, there is nothing else for me to do here, so I'd better go back to the Duke's Mansion first." She felt it was not appropriate to stay here, as Yuan Xin's glare was murderous.

Mingyue had Yuanxin's advice, so she didn't need to say anything more.

"No." Mingyue stepped forward and grabbed her, "Don't leave. There is no shortage of people in the Duke's Mansion, and your daughter will have someone to take care of her. You stay here with me and wait for Brother Xuan to come back."

Mingyue is still young after all, and she needs someone around her who can give her enough strength.

Fu Ran saw that her face looked really bad, so he didn't want to leave forcefully.

"Okay, I'll stay then."

She didn't look up, but she knew Yuan Xin was looking at her.

After staring at her for a while, Fu Ran resisted the urge to roll his eyes and looked at Yuan Xin.

Yuan Xin was looking at her.

"Why are you looking at me like that, Miss Yuan?" she asked, raising her eyebrows.

Yuan Xin curled the corners of her lips and showed a cold smile: "Everyone says that the wife of the Duke of Weiguo is of humble origin, untalented and heartless. She just happened to be used as a pawn by the traitor to trap the Duke of Weiguo, and then she sat on the position of the wife of the Duke of Weiguo. Now it seems that the world is still prejudiced. The wife of the Duke of Weiguo is not simply ignorant."

Yuan Xin is known as a talented woman, so her mind must be sharp.

Fu Ran retired to the Duke of Weiguo's mansion as a second-class maid in a wealthy family, and even gave birth to the Duke of Weiguo's eldest daughter. This alone was more than just good luck.
