A flurry of footsteps suddenly walked over.

“Your Highness, Eldest Prince.” Another green-robed inner servant in his forties rushed over and broke the subtle atmosphere. He reminded respectfully, “It’s about time.”

Chu Yi smiled and still held Gu Yanfei’s hand. He smiled and said, “Let’s go.”

Gu Yanfei adjusted her mood in an extremely short period of time and returned to normal.

She also smiled and called Wei Jiaoniang, Lu Qin, and the others.

“Please follow me to Hall of Flowers.” The green-robed inner servant led the way with a smile.

Not only here, but the others in the palace were also walking in the direction of the Canopy Hall in the center of the palace, like hundreds of birds looking at a phoenix.

Gradually, they encountered other familiar faces, and it was inevitable that they would talk about the Emperor’s decree. One moment, they talked about Zeng Ya, the next moment, Li Zhaodi, the identity of Li Yunrong, and the next moment, they talked about Kang Wang.

Almost everyone knew that Gu Yunrong was actually called “Li Yunrong”.

For those people from aristocratic families, this news was like a thunderclap descending from the sky, shaking their ears.

For hundreds of years, these noble families valued bloodlines the most.

In the past, the aristocratic families had always been married to the aristocratic families. The aristocratic families had no choice but to marry their daughters to these new nobles in the royal court.

Now, Kang Wang actually wanted to marry a servant’s daughter and a son.

This was already challenging the bottom line of these families.

Before the banquet even started, Chu You was stopped by Xiao Shoufu, Wang Kangyin, and the others in a pavilion outside the Hall of Flowers. These people took turns to go to the camp and persuade Chu You.

“Your Highness, your marriage with Li Yunrong can’t be arranged!”

“Your Highness, with Li Yunrong’s background, how will she be a mother to the world in the future and convince the public!”

“Your Highness, your mother’s family is the Yuan family of Yangzhou, which has lasted for 300 years. Countless officials have appeared in the family and have noble bloodlines, but what about this Li Yunrong? Her bloodline is too low!”

“The child of a servant will also give birth to a child. Li Yunrong is the daughter of a slave. In the future, when she and His Highness give birth to Lin’er, this child will also have the bloodline of a servant. How can she inherit the throne?!”

“Your Highness, you can’t ignore the big picture for a mere Li Yunrong!”

Xiao Shoufu and the other officials of the aristocratic families went from persuasion to threat and used both soft and hard methods.

It was never their wish for their dignified family to kneel before Emperor Taizu.

Could it be that they would have to bow down to the daughter of a slave in the future?

Just thinking about it made these aristocratic descendants’ hearts turn cold. Their tone also became unyielding and almost threatening.

But no matter who came to persuade him, Chu You didn’t say anything. He turned around and begged the Emperor at the Hundred Flower Banquet to let him marry Li Yunrong as soon as possible.

Regarding this, Xiao Shoufu and the others were extremely disappointed. Kang Wang was stubborn and insisted on marrying a daughter of a slave as the main concubine, messing up the hierarchy and tainting the bloodline of the aristocratic families.

But before they could object in public, the Emperor had already readily agreed.

Therefore, when he returned to the capital that day, Chu You didn’t return to the prince’s residence. He rushed to the imperial prison of North Town Bureau to pick her up.

The members of the Gu family were all locked up in prison. The moment they saw Chu You, Gu Yunrong was surprised. Gu Jian and the others from the Gu family were pleasantly surprised, as if they had seen their savior.

“Your Highness!”

“Your Highness, are you here to save us?”

In the cell, the excited shouts of Gu Jian, Madam Wang, Gu Xiao, and the others rose and fell. Everyone from the Gu family looked at Chu You with hope.

However, Chu You didn’t even look at the Gu family. He walked straight to Gu Yunrong and said, “Rong’er, I’m here to pick you up.”

These words doused Gu Jian and the others with cold water, and the flames in their eyes darkened.

The Embroidered Uniform Guards immediately unlocked the door and opened the cell door.

“Your Highness…” Gu Yunrong shouted passionately. A hazy mist appeared in her eyes, looking beautiful.

She looked even thinner than the last time they met. Her face was haggard, and she was no longer as energetic as before.

Her black and green hair was only tied up in the simplest grip. There were no accessories at all. Her sideburns were slightly messy, and her bright red dress was a little wrinkled, but it was still clean.

“Rong’er.” Chu You’s burning gaze lingered greedily on Gu Yunrong’s beautiful face, wishing he could carve her in his heart.

At this moment of seeing her, the restless heart that had been wandering for days finally found its place, and a sense of tranquility settled within him..
