Chapter 81 No matter how much you abandon the prince, he is still a prince
"Meow."
Xue Tuan rolled softly and exposed his obviously bald belly to Cui Yun. His claws seemed to be accusing him bit by bit.
It was really petite as it was raised, so Cui Yun took the medicine bottle and slowly applied medicine to the obviously swollen area where it had lost its hair.
"I usually say a few words to you and get angry with me, but now I'm being bullied."
Cui Yun's eyes moved down and fell on the sharp claws.
"White hair?"
His features were very beautiful, but before Shen Hua could take a closer look, his vision turned into chaos. Cui Yun's figure was shrouded in the vast white fog in the sky, blurry and hazy, and the dazzling light turned dim, and soon , her vision went dark.
Return to reality.

Yanglinghou Mansion
Cui Rong breathed out coldly. She stamped her feet anxiously.
"Second uncle lied!"
"He said he would take me out to buy lanterns when he came back from the palace. But my great-grandfather has come back, and he hasn't come back yet!"
Hearing this, Qiao Si said softly: "Don't talk nonsense. Did your second uncle ever lie to you? He must have been delayed due to his busy schedule. It's late at night, so I went back to the house with my mother-in-law."
As she said that, she glanced at the sky, feeling a little worried.
Cui Yun acted prudently and would always let his subordinates send him a message if he couldn't get away. Could it be that something happened to Dali Temple again this time?
Just when Cui Rong was led back to the house by Qiao Si, he saw the woman from the concierge running over.
"Little Princess, the Marquis is back."
Cui Rong was so happy that he quickly broke away from Qiao Si's hand and ran out.
Qiao Si looked at the little girl's back helplessly.
"This kid."
It is said that Cui Rong has none of Cui Rong's poise and stability.
She told the boy: "Hurry up and follow. It's snowy and the road is slippery. Don't fall down again and cry out that it hurts."
Cui Rong ran very fast. When he saw Cui Yun strolling leisurely in front of him, his eyes lit up and he pounced on him.
"Second uncle!"
Cui Yun walked a little faster and caught Cui Rong.
"Why did you come back?"
Cui Yun squinted his eyes and suddenly realized. Perhaps he had been so busy these past few days that he was spending all his time with Shen Hua tonight.
He was startled, and a sigh escaped from his lips and teeth.
"Sister Rong is waiting impatiently. It's my second uncle's fault, isn't it?"
Cui Rong was aggrieved at first, but when he heard this, he lost his temper.
"Second uncle is busy, I am sensible."
Then, in surprise, he lit the lantern in Cui Yun's hand.
"Is it for me?"
Cui Yun nodded.
After seeing the pattern clearly, she pouted again.
"Why did my second uncle forget that I like lions?"
Cui Yun was silent.
Cui Rong gave him a reason: "I know, the lions must have been sold out."
Cui Yun's eyes were dark and he said "hmm" for a while.
"Then I forgive my second uncle."
Ji Qing:……
Little princess, there are a lot of lions on the stall.
It's just that the master has faced off against the Shen family's wife for the first time. He insists on this rabbit.
After sending Cui Rong back, Cui Yun returned to the study. The study was lit by a lamp and it was as bright as day. Before he could enter, he saw Jixin standing outside in a polite manner.
Cui Yun's expression remained unchanged as he slowly walked inside.
"grandfather."
The old man was holding the brewed tea in his hand, standing on one side, looking at the paintings on the wall quietly. Hearing the footsteps, he never looked back.
"The ink and brush strokes are flowing like clouds and flowing water. Your painting skills have improved a lot."
Cui Yun smiled lightly and said nothing.
The old man took a sip of tea, pondered for a moment and said: "Although the important ministers did not say anything about what the emperor did today, they complained in private. Yushi Shu was about to leave the table to remonstrate on the spot, but was stopped by the civil servants around him."
What he was talking about was naturally about getting married.
Cui Yun has no opinion on this.
Just don't throw random things at him. Ordinary people can't tolerate what Princess Lejia does in private.
"I met the third prince today."
Old Mrs. Cui's voice softened.
"How majestic the Prince of Huai'an was back then. Prince Huai'an was the prince of the opposite sex personally appointed by the late emperor when he was still alive. His free and easy nature was the most loyal. He once saved your father's life."
"If he knew that the third prince was living this kind of life, he might as well have rebelled against it."
The third prince’s biological mother, Concubine Shao, is Shao Wu’s biological sister.
Back then, Concubine Shao was favored by the Sixth Palace, and Ji Qi was a nobler prince than the crown prince.
If the King of Huai'an wanted to rebel, half of the forces in the court would have defected to him, and even the knights of the rivers and lakes would have gathered around the King of Huai'an. What would happen to Emperor Huai'an in this world?
It's just that it's too late to say anything now.
The Marquis of Huai'an has fallen.
Mr. Cui was worried, and looked at Cui Yun in a daze.
After a long while, he sighed deeply.
"Please take care of the Third Prince for your father. At least let him stop wearing such thin clothes."
At tonight's banquet, even the eunuchs in the palace were dressed warmer than Ji Li.
Cui Yun subconsciously tried to touch the bracelet on his wrist, but missed it.
Not surprisingly, Princess Lejia also wanted to be crowned a concubine. Si Tianjian would choose the auspicious time to hold the concubine ceremony. The envoy would not go back until the ceremony was over.
He couldn't help but raise his eyebrows: "The queen vacated the Yanxi Palace."
Yanxi Palace was the former residence of Concubine Shao. After her accident, Yanxi Palace has been empty and unattended. It is quieter than the Cold Palace.
The queen did this on purpose.
She wanted the dead Concubine Shao to see with her own eyes that her honor was in vain in the end.
But now, it is being packed away and given to Princess Lejia.
You must know that the Yanxi Palace is so magnificent that every brick and tile is the result of years of painstaking efforts by the Ministry of Industry.
"What's her intention?" Mr. Cui frowned.
Cui Yun lowered his eyes: "The third prince has returned, and it's time to get married. The queen will never be angry with the dead again."
Therefore, in front of Ji Li, she wanted to personally erase Ji Li's only remaining memory of his biological mother and Yanxi Palace.
There was no hint of joy or anger in Cui Yun's voice. He said: "When a prince marries a wife, the choice of his new wife should not be too low or too high."
How could the queen be willing to give a girl from a good family to Ji Li? But she preferred to be superficial and act like a loving mother.
Naturally, you cannot choose a girl from a small family or a concubine from a wealthy family.
If this is the case, all officials will be impeached.
This matter involves the royal family's reputation, and even if the queen is willing, the emperor is not willing.
"Right now, there is a suitable candidate."
Mr. Cui thought about something.
There was an angry look on his face.
"You mean the daughter of the Minister of Industry?"
Yes, it's Wei Yingying.
Cui Yun nodded.
He spoke very slowly, but he was enlightened, like a cold jade striking a stone.
"She was kidnapped for several days because she was not confused. Although she was still innocent, her reputation was completely ruined, which was enough to insult the third prince."
Who cares whether Wei Yingying is truly innocent or falsely innocent? If she was kidnapped, she would be considered dirty in the eyes of the world.
The daughter of the minister of the Ministry of Industry and Commerce, who has a body that is in ruins and willows, is not noble at all. She is more than worthy of an abandoned prince.
Emperor Ghe would naturally not object to this matter.
And what the queen does will earn her a good reputation.
After all, the royal family was so considerate of the frightened female courtiers that they even issued a decree to appease them by granting them a marriage.
No matter how you abandon the prince, he is still a prince.
This is God's grace.
