Chapter 955

……

The plot continues to move forward.

Su Xin's life-threatening crisis was fortunately just a false alarm.

Now that the Divine Marquis had eradicated the Eastern Depot and saved Su Xin, it was naturally a happy ending for everyone.

Wan Sanqian happily began to prepare for his wedding with Haitang, and the Divine Marquis also announced the good news at the banquet that he would marry Su Xin as his Princess.

But he didn't expect that in the next second, Yunluo, who spoke without thinking, mentioned that when the Yan Emperor was on the throne, she had once issued an edict prohibiting the Divine Marquis from marrying Su Xin, not allowing Su Xin to marry into the Dragon Guard Villa...

Who knew that as soon as Yunluo said this, everyone else at the banquet fell silent.

The Yan Emperor had passed away, but to this day, she still had a huge influence.

Even just Cao Zhengchun, a little eunuch she had promoted back then, could stir up trouble in the court and hold great power.

Not to mention.

The Yan Emperor was not overthrown by a coup like Wu Zetian in her later years; she had legally passed on the throne, and the current Emperor was her own grandson.

The edict she issued back then still counted to this day.

If the Divine Marquis wanted to overturn it and marry Su Xin as his Princess, it would inevitably cause a stir in the court, receiving opposition and obstruction from the civil and military officials and even the current Emperor.

At this moment.

The Divine Marquis's expression suddenly sank, his face as gloomy as water.

The audience also sighed deeply:

"Jiang Yuyan, this woman is truly someone you love to death, yet hate until your teeth itch!"

"Look at how this matter is handled."

"The Divine Marquis is too difficult."

"Actually, not giving Su Xin a title would make this matter easy to solve, but the difficulty lies in the fact that as a real man, the Divine Marquis wants to give Su Xin a title."

"Next, it depends on how the Divine Marquis and the Emperor play their game."

"……"

After the banquet, Su Xin was somewhat unhappy.

The Divine Marquis naturally knew what she was worried about.

When the Yan Emperor was on the throne, he was just a young thirteenth prince, a transparent existence in the Zhu family clan, with low status and not taken seriously; he dared not disobey the Yan Emperor's orders.

Now he had a noble status, honored as the Imperial Uncle of the current Emperor, and the Dragon Guard Villa under his command had huge power, with the four great secret agents being highly skilled in martial arts and loyal to him.

In the Wuxia world, experts like the four great secret agents are equivalent to ballistic missiles.

Now he had even recruited several generals who held military power into his command.

This was his trump card; he had the confidence to make the Emperor compromise.

"Don't worry, I have my own ways." Zhu Wushi's eyes flashed with sharp light, hugging Su Xin as he said.

What he wanted was far more than just marrying Su Xin as his Princess.

It's just that the current audience didn't see it, and the plot hadn't been revealed yet.

The next day.

In the court.

Zhu Wushi proposed to the Emperor that he wanted to marry Su Xin, which naturally caused opposition from the officials, especially two elderly first-rank ministers, who were firmly opposed.

They were all old people from the Yan Emperor's reign; although they were dissatisfied with Jiang Yuyan becoming Emperor as a woman back then, they were incredibly supportive of Jiang Yuyan's prohibition of Zhu Wushi marrying Su Xin!

Even the Emperor had an unhappy expression.
