Ling Qingwan curled her lips and muttered softly.
She said this, but there was no complaint in her tone.
"I love my wife, what's wrong with that?" Wei Xun raised his head slightly, quite dissatisfied with Ling Qingwan's wording.
Ling Qingwan was stunned at first, then casually understood what Wei Xun meant.
"I haven't married you yet, what wife? I'm not your wife."
"You will be mine sooner or later anyway, so I have to call you Madam no matter how early or late it is." Wei Xun's lips curled slightly, and his eyes were full of smiles as he looked at Ling Qingwan.
Ling Qingwan was shy, lowered her head, and her face blushed all the way to her neck.
Wei Xun was moved when he saw Ling Qingwan like this, and he pulled her into his arms.
Ling Qingwan did not dodge, but leaned on Wei Xun's chest with peace of mind.
"By the way, I came here today to tell you something."
Wei Xun's chin rested lightly on the top of Ling Qingwan's head, and Ling Qingwan could feel his mouth opening and closing.
"you say."
"The spies from the Northern Zhou have sent back news. Now, it is being spread everywhere in the Northern Zhou that the crown prince is about to marry the granddaughter of the Dai Viet general."
Everything was going on in an orderly manner just as they had planned.
"You are the only one who can come up with this idea." Ling Qingwan chuckled.
I guess if Manxing knew about this now, he would be so angry that he couldn't sleep.
The Northern Zhou emperor had many children, so even if Manxing became the crown prince as he wished, he might be pulled down again. Those princes who still coveted the throne would definitely not sit idly by when they knew that Manxing had become the general of Dai Viet.
With fire in Manxing's backyard, he had no time to care about the marriage. He wanted to fly back to Northern Zhou to deal with the unrest and consolidate his position as crown prince.
Moreover, on the surface, the scandal was between Man Xing and Ling Qingwan, but in Wei Xun's mind, the so-called granddaughter of the Dai Viet general actually referred to Ling Chuchu.
Although Ling Qingwan is the only legitimate granddaughter of Shen Chengzhou, Ling Chuchu has been raised by Ling Shenshi since she was a child. If she had not made a fuss about breaking up with Ling Shenshi, Ling Shenshi would have regarded Ling Chuchu as her own daughter.
After all, they have been mother and daughter for more than ten years, so Ling Shen must have feelings for Ling Chuchu.
No matter how you look at it, Wei Xun's method will not cause any loss to the General's Mansion.
Ling Qingwan was right. Man Xing was really furious after knowing about this.
At that time, he was holding the imperial edict in his hand, as if he was going to tear it up at the next moment.
"Your Highness, are you worried about the situation in Northern Zhou?"
A man came in and stood in front of Manxing calmly.
The man was wearing a huge cloak that covered his entire body, leaving only his mouth exposed. If it weren't for the voice he made, one could tell it was a man's voice. Just looking at his appearance and figure, it would be impossible to tell whether he was a man or a woman.
Just as he finished speaking, a gust of wind blew in through the window, and the man's empty sleeves fluttered in the wind, looking a little inexplicably mysterious.
"How dare you ask me that?" Man Xing's expression immediately fell. "If I hadn't listened to you and held on to Ling Qingwan and Ling Xiao, how could I have forgotten to deal with Wei Xun, allowing him to take the opportunity to defeat me."
"Your Highness, please be patient." Ye Yun bent down slightly, his tone was very calm, and there was a hint of respect in it.
"I've told you before that neither of Shen Chengzhou's two grandsons is easy to deal with. Especially his granddaughter Ling Qingwan. She looks like a weak little girl, just like an ordinary lady from a wealthy family, but she is very cunning. Most people are no match for her."
When it comes to Ling Qingwan, Ye Yun obviously lost his previous indifference.
It was no secret among Manxing that he hated Ling Qingwan.
"That's right. At the beginning, you said you would help me deal with Shen Chengzhou and alienate the relationship between Shen Chengzhou and the people of Dayue. In the end, Ling Qingwan solved it in a few moves, and I lost an arm in vain. At that time, I became a little curious about Ling Qingwan."
After several interactions with Ling Qingwan during this period, Manxing became more certain that Ling Qingwan was truly an extraordinary woman.
"Besides, she is now engaged to Wei Xun. If you want to take her back to Northern Zhou, you are going against Wei Xun. It is reasonable for him to go against you."
Faced with Man Xing's deliberate ridicule, Ye Yun reacted calmly, as if he was naturally immune to anger.
"What do you mean? Do you think I deserve to lose to Wei Xun?" Man Xing was furious and yelled at Ye Yun.
"That's not what I meant." Ye Yun bent his waist even deeper. "What I meant is that the situation is still undecided, and you and Wei Xun haven't decided who will win yet."
Manxing's eyes were slightly dimmed as she looked at Ye Yun cautiously.
"You are in Dai Viet, but Wei Xun did not bother you, but chose to cause trouble in Northern Zhou, thousands of kilometers away from him. Isn't this enough to prove that Wei Xun is afraid of you? He is plotting behind your back because he is afraid of confronting you head-on. He wants you to leave Dai Viet because you staying here is a great threat to him."
Ye Yun’s words made perfect sense, and Man Xing felt much better after listening to them.
"So what do you think I should do next?"
"In your current situation, you can only go back to Northern Zhou to deal with the affairs of those princes." Ye Yun said slowly. "As for Princess Shangwu, if she stays here for too long, she will inevitably be blinded by love and even become a member of Da Yue."
"I see."
Manxing thought so too.
Bring Shangwu back to Northern Zhou and replace her with the original Shangchu.
"There is one more thing." Man Xing thought of Ling Xiao and Ling Qingwan, feeling very unwilling. "I came to Dayue to shake the wall of the General's Mansion. Only by dealing with Shen Chengzhou can I sit firmly on the throne of the crown prince. In the future, I can defeat Dayue earlier and avenge my previous shame."
Therefore, even if Manxing went back, he had to get rid of Shen Chengzhou.
The reason why the current Dai Viet is so indestructible is because of Shen Chengzhou. Without Shen Chengzhou, Dai Viet would be just an empty shell. At that time, it would be easy for him to flatten Dai Viet.
Manxing's ambition would not allow him to lose to Shen Chengzhou.
Moreover, during this trip to Dayue, he had not even really fought with Shen Chengzhou. It was always Ling Qingwan and Ling Xiao who confronted him.
But with just these two people, Manxing was a little overwhelmed.
The more he thought about it, the angrier Manxing became.
"Have you ever thought about what Shen Chengzhou is most afraid of?" Ye Yun whispered to Manxing.
"You've asked me this question before. You also told me that Shen Chengzhou loved his two grandsons the most in his life. Otherwise, I wouldn't have thought of traveling all the way to Dayue just to snatch Ling Qingwan." Man Xing was a little impatient.
"You have forgotten one person." Ye Yun continued.
Manxing frowned.
"Shen Chengzhou values feelings, which is his weakness. But he has more than just two relatives, Ling Xiao and Ling Qingwan. He also has another one, his daughter, the eldest lady of the Ling Mansion, Shen Qingyun."
Since Ling Xiao and Ling Qingwan can't break through, let someone else try.
