Chapter 1585: Plan to Eliminate Hidden Dangers!
Translator: Lonelytree
Hearing Yuwen Longyan’s question, Lin Yuelan shook her head and said,”
Maybe. Since we’ve already signed the withdrawal agreement with the Black Clouds Kingdom, we’ll take it one step at a time. In the future, we’ll be on guard against Princess Linglong!’
Yuwen Longyan nodded.” That’s true! If they really had some conspiracy, even if it wasn’t Princess Linglong, it would be another princess. Instead of that, it would be better to demote Princess Linglong from the main wife to a concubine. Without power, she wouldn’t be able to do much. Moreover, Xiao Jingyu had been in Longyan Kingdom for more than a month, and everyone in the capital knew her. This was equivalent to letting her live under everyone’s supervision. If it were a princess that no one knew, many people would be unable to guard against her!”
Lin Yuelan nodded and said,” Your Majesty is right!”
Perhaps Yuwen Longyan had just signed an agreement that was beneficial to the Longyan Kingdom, so he was in a good mood.
But then, he thought of something and asked,” Oh, right, girl, did you just say that everyone already knows about Xiao Jingyu’s pregnancy?”
Lin Yuelan nodded.” Yes!”
Then, Yuwen Longyan’s face turned from clear to dark, and he shouted angrily,” Xiao Jingrui! He’s indeed a schemer!”
He actually humiliated the entire royal family in such a way. How despicable!
Fortunately, he didn’t compromise with Xiao Jingyu’s demotion. Otherwise, they would really lose face in front of the world. After Yuwen Longyan finished scolding, Lin Yuelan nodded and said,” Well, fortunately, you are smart and didn’t compromise with Xiao Jingrui!’
If Xiao Jingyu’s pregnancy were exposed, and Yuwen Longyan promised Xiao Jingrui to let Xiao Jingyu continue to marry the eldest grandson of the emperor as the first wife in order to obtain more benefits, the world would think the royal family was really shameless. The princess of the Black Cloud Kingdom had made such a big cuckold for the royal family of the Longyan Kingdom, but they could still tolerate an unchaste and promiscuous woman as the first wife.
No one in the world would care if the Longyan Kingdom gained more benefits because of this position.
They would only know that after the eldest grandprince divorced his wife and remarried, he was cuckolded by a princess from another country. They felt humiliated.
Yuwen Longyan obviously thought of this as well. He shouted angrily,” Xiao Jingrui!’
No wonder Xiao Jingrui immediately came to him when he came to the palace. When the news reached the palace, he and Xiao Jingrui were discussing the matter in the royal study. Perhaps when the news of the pregnancy reached his ears, the agreement between him and Xiao Jingrui might have been completed, and it was impossible to go back on it even if he wanted to!
They were all rulers of a country, and they could not do things in reverse. Therefore, they could only suffer in silence!
Fortunately, when he mentioned the conditions, he insisted that Xiao Jingrui should be demoted from the main consort to a concubine. Otherwise…
Yuwen Longyan didn’t dare to think about it anymore.
However, Yuwen Longyan was even more confused.
Even if Xiao Jingyu married Yuwen Xuhong even after she got pregnant, which made the royal family of the Longyan Kingdom lose face, wouldn’t it also make the royal family of the Black Clouds Kingdom lose face?
The princess of a country was a slut. Didn’t this mean that there was something wrong with the upbringing of the Black Cloud Country’s royal family? Wasn’t this also a joke?
If this was the case, perhaps Xiao Jingrui was hiding a huge conspiracy here.
As for what kind of conspiracy this was, they did not know at the moment. It was just a guess.
If Xiao Jingyu were to be a spy of the Black Clouds Kingdom, not only could the Black Clouds Kingdom not kill this person, but they would also have to worship her like a Bodhisattva.
Therefore, it didn’t matter whether Xiao Jingyu was the main consort or a concubine as long as this person was in the Longyan Kingdom and in the circle of nobles in the capital.
Yuwen Longyan’s face darkened when he thought of this. He snorted coldly and said,” So, Xiao Jingyu, whether she’s the main consort or a concubine, must be respected and guarded against!”
Lin Yuelan nodded and said,” Indeed!”
Then, Lin Yuelan said,” However, no matter what schemes the Black Clouds
Kingdom has, we’ll just have to guard against them first!”
At present, since Jiang Zhennan was conferred the title of Great General, coupled with the internal problems of the Black Clouds Kingdom’s royal family, Black Clouds Kingdom had no time to care about the war between the two countries. Therefore, Jiang Zhennan could win every battle..
