When the marriage imperial edict was sent to her palace, Feng Yu cried until her eyes were swollen.
During the days when she was preparing for the wedding, she closed the door tightly and did not allow anyone to enter, which made the emperor and empress very distressed.
But no matter how much Feng Yu didn't want to marry and become a political pawn, she couldn't resist the imperial order.
So, on the eve of her departure with the Dong Hu army to another country.
I secretly took the prince's token and went to her palace.
Seeing that it was me, Feng Yu angrily cursed, "At a time like this, you still want to come and see me make a fool of myself!"
"You misunderstand, Princess. I am not here to make fun of you, I am here on behalf of His Highness to rescue you from the palace."
Feng Yu looked at me suspiciously, "Are you really so kind? Besides, why didn't my brother come himself? Why send you?"
I said solemnly, "His Highness is currently receiving the Dong Hu envoys along with the emperor and empress. He naturally has no time to come, and besides, this matter must be done in secret. Once it is known, there will be no way out for the princess. I have heard that those barbarians from the Dong Hu are very rude. So, will the princess come with me or not? If you refuse to go, I will return to the Eastern Palace."
Seeing that I was running out of patience, Feng Yu quickly grabbed me and said, "Then I will trust you once. Tell me, how can I leave the palace?"
Hearing Ling Chong's name, Feng Yu's eyes lit up. "Has Brother Ling Chong returned to the capital?"
"Yes, he also has feelings for the princess and naturally cannot bear to see you marry someone else. So he quietly returned to the capital and will take you away after meeting with you."
For a princess with a romantic mind, this was simply irresistible temptation. Feng Yu quickly fell for it and followed my instructions.
As for me, after everything was done, I hurriedly returned to the Eastern Palace and lay down beside Gu Xing, pretending that I had never left.
Just waiting for daybreak, the news of Princess Feng Yu's disappearance immediately spread throughout the entire palace.
As for the Dong Hu envoys outside the palace, someone had already brought them the news.
The Dong Hu envoys were furious and immediately caused a commotion in the palace, asking if the emperor was intentionally playing with them.
If the emperor didn't have the sincerity to send the princess for a marriage alliance, the war would not stop!
Furious, the emperor almost smashed the jade seal and immediately ordered a search for Feng Yu inside and outside the palace.
Although the palace was large, it couldn't withstand such a thorough search. Feng Yu's hiding place was soon discovered.
She had the prince's token with her, so the emperor didn't need to ask to know what had happened.
Immediately, he sent for Gu Xing to interrogate him.
In order to save his own younger sister, Gu Xing reluctantly admitted to assisting the princess in escaping and enraged the emperor to the point where he imprisoned him, threatening to depose the prince.
This battle killed two birds with one stone, it was truly satisfying.
Now that Feng Yu had been found, she got married as scheduled.
However, she had offended the Dong Hu, so her days in the future would probably be even more difficult.
