The next day, Princess Wen Yi's body was found at the Yucheng Pass in her fiefdom. A group of mountain bandits were captured and confessed to the murder of the princess.

When he went to court, the prince produced evidence of private transactions with Gu Huanzhi.

Wen Yi misappropriated the tax revenue of the fiefdom of Yucheng for several years, took gold and silver bribes from the fiefdom officials, and allowed them to arbitrarily increase land taxation.

He allowed the fiefdom officials to be tyrannical and allowed the fiefdom money mills to mint coins and circulate them in the fiefdom, which caused the people to occupy the mountains and become bandits. They killed her while she was traveling to rectify the law of heaven.

As soon as this evidence came out, everyone in the court was shocked, and even the emperor was furious.

Merely embezzling tribute taxes is already a capital crime. Moreover, Wen Yi also collected bribes, condoned officials' evil deeds, and minted counterfeit coins for circulation. Each and every one of them was a capital crime.

There were people from the Second Prince's group in the court who were trying to confuse the situation.

The prince said bluntly: The emperor broke the law and the common people were equally guilty. Wen Yi connived with the officials of the fief and so on, harming the people, resulting in the loss of life and death.

The emperor was furious because of Wen Yi's previous actions, angrily rebuked those officials who retorted, and ordered the appointment of the prince as an inspector to go to Yucheng to appease the people and restore people's livelihood.

The prince's move was very popular among the people.

The original intention of Gu Huanzhi and the prince's plan was to track down the second prince and bring him down together.

But the second prince was very vigilant. After Wen Yi's incident was made public, he claimed to be ill and stayed at home. He disposed of some things secretly, so the fire did not burn him.

However, because of Wen Yi's incident, the emperor has become much colder to the second prince recently, and he can't be considered safe.

In a blink of an eye, it was time for the wedding at the General's Mansion.

Gu Huanzhi not only had to do something urgent but also make it big, so everyone under him was so busy that he could prepare the wedding ceremony in a short period of time.

When she put on the extremely luxurious wedding clothes prepared by Gu Huanzhi, Yun Wu was still confused.

It seems like she came to this world just yesterday, and today she is going to marry the male protagonist with a baby in her belly.

Fantasy, too fantasy...

Poria carefully put the phoenix crown on Yun Wu's head, and the wedding outfit was completed.

Fu Ling's eyes were full of amazement and she praised: "Madam is really beautiful today. I have never seen such a beautiful person like Madam."

The woman in front of her is wearing a phoenix crown and a hare, and her red wedding dress makes her complexion fairer and more dazzling.

Because she was pregnant, she only wore a little makeup on her face. She had an apricot face and peach cheeks, her pink lips were small and exquisite, and her facial features were extremely soft.

Yun Wu smiled sheepishly and didn't know how to answer for a moment. At this moment, a burst of electricity flashed through her mind.

She suddenly frowned.

Upon seeing this, Poria became nervous and stepped forward to hold Yun Wu's hand and let her sit on the soft couch.

"Ma'am, what's wrong? But you have a stomachache?"

"It's okay, maybe I'm a little tired."

Yun Wu said softly, while dealing with Poria and concentrating in her mind. Sure enough, the system novice was back.

[Host, host, it’s me!noob! 】

"You're finally back, Xiaobai."

Yun Wu was having a conversation with Xiao Bai in her mind, "The plot points collapsed during your absence. I don't know what to do."

Listening to the soft and beautiful host's accusation, Xiaobai laughed a little guiltily, and then continued:

[Host, don’t be afraid, the established plot of this plane cannot be changed now. Let’s just follow it and pass this plane naturally]

"But I am a cannon fodder in the plane. Now that I have not followed the original cannon fodder plot, will I fail the mission and be punished by heaven?"

Yun Wu said worriedly. System Xiaobai knew best that this was no longer the cannon fodder mission world, but it couldn't tell the host yet.

[No, no, no, the host takes one step at a time and doesn’t have to worry about whether the mission will fail or not]

"it is good……"

Yun Wu felt relieved a little, but she was still worried. She always felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't tell her.

Before Yun Wu could think about the meaning carefully, Xiniang urged her to put on the red hijab.

Yun Wu was not very tired after that. She was still pregnant and her pulse was unstable and her health was not good. Gu Huanzhi couldn't bear to let her be tired.

After only paying homage to the hall, Fu Ling helped her back to the dormitory. Even the guests in the hall only saw her briefly, and they couldn't even see her face under the red hijab.

The second prince also came to today's wedding banquet.

Gu Huan knew that all his relatives were dead, and the wedding banquet was only attended by courtiers from the court, as well as aristocratic families in the capital.

Everyone here also knew what kind of temper Gu Huanzhi was, and they didn't bother themselves by dragging Gu Huanzhi to get drunk.

Everyone said a few words of congratulations and it was done. Gu Huanzhi was in a good mood today, and everyone who came to toast responded to them one by one.

"Congratulations to General Gu on your happy marriage."

The second prince came to see Gu Huanzhi while most of the guests had dispersed.

Gu Huanzhi's expression did not change. He raised his hands and bowed, "Thank you, Your Highness."

The second prince has kept a much lower profile these days, perhaps because he was a little implicated in Wen Yi's incident, and his face looks a little haggard.

His eyes fell on Gu Huanzhi's wedding dress, which was dazzlingly red.

The second prince couldn't help but think of the scene where he had just watched Gu Huanzhi and Yun Wu get married outside the palace. Even he couldn't explain clearly. He only saw that one look with Yun Wu, which he would never forget.

He was a little jealous, jealous that the prince had Gu Huanzhi to help him deal with him, jealous that Gu Huanzhi could marry Yun Wu, jealous that his life was so happy.

The second prince endured the sourness in his heart. He thought of his great achievements, and then he smiled like before.

"My mother has chosen a concubine for me, and the wedding will be held soon. I hope the general and his wife will attend the wedding together."

"That's natural."

Gu Huanzhi said calmly, and then bowed to the second prince in a polite manner.

"Today is the night of flowers and candles in my bridal chamber, so I will leave first."

After Gu Huanzhi said goodbye, he strode up the corridor and headed towards the backyard.

The second prince stood at the back. The smile on his face gradually cooled down under the heavy darkness of the night, and he clenched his hands into fists.

Let him be proud for a while. Who will be the master of the world from now on?
