    Now the open and covert struggles among the princes are becoming more and more intense. Seeing that the fourth prince is about to win, if Huo Zheng suddenly appears halfway, the court will inevitably undergo earth-shaking changes.

    Even if Huo Zheng has no intention of seizing the throne, it is inevitable that he will be suspected and calculated by other brothers just because of the military power in his hands and the expectations of Emperor Cheng Zhao.

    In this regard, the Duke of Zhenguo had long anticipated it. As soon as Huo Zheng returned to the mansion, he went to the study of the Duke of Zhenguo. The fate of the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion has long been tied to the fifth prince who is still in the dark.

    What surprised the Duke of Zhenguo was that before entering the palace, Huo Zheng was very shocked and repulsive about his life experience. Who knew that in just one night, his attitude changed drastically and he was very active in the fight for the throne.

    This is naturally good for the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion. The Duke of Zhenguo had long anticipated that this day would come, so he made some arrangements in the early years and would fully support Huo Zheng.

    The news that the Princess of Qin was rejected by Huo Zheng in public soon spread throughout the city of Yanjing. Many people scolded Huo Zheng for not knowing what was good for him and not knowing how to appreciate his blessings. Some people also thought that Huo Zheng was wise to do so. After all, he was now a general commanding the three armies, deeply loved by the emperor, and had a promising future. Why should he marry a princess and suffer from her anger?

    The noble families in the capital originally wanted to propose marriage to the Duke's Mansion, but now they dared only to wait and see quietly - Huo Zheng refused the marriage granted by His Majesty. Although Emperor Cheng Zhao did not embarrass Huo Zheng that night, who knew if he would settle the score later? In order to avoid being implicated, the nobles who wanted to propose marriage did not dare to act rashly.

    The only happy person was probably Yu Tao. She invited Huo Zheng to Yunfulou in the identity of Yu Shan.

    When Huo Zheng arrived at the private room of Yunfulou, he did not see Yu Shan, but a woman was waiting there.

    He frowned, thinking he had come to the wrong place. "Sorry, I came to the wrong place. Sorry for the impoliteness."

    After saying that, Huo Zheng was about to close the door of the private room.

    "Hey! Huo Zheng!" The girl's crisp voice sounded. She walked a few steps to the door and called Huo Zheng, "It's me!"

    Huo Zheng paused and looked back at the other party. The girl had bright eyes and white teeth, and her appearance was beautiful. Her smile was like a blooming peach blossom, which was unforgettable. She was indeed a peerless beauty who could overwhelm the whole country.

    If he had never seen Jun Yan, he would definitely be very surprised and look at her more, but now his heart and eyes are full of his little princess, and he would not even look at other women.

    "Who are you?" Huo Zheng looked puzzled, thinking that the person in front of him looked familiar, but he had never seen the other party before.

    "I am Yu Tao! My brother asked you to come here!" Yu Tao looked at Huo Zheng with shy eyes, and then lowered her head hurriedly, with a delicate look like a little girl.

    She thought that after last night, she would no longer be destined to be with Huo Zheng, but Huo Zheng actually disobeyed the emperor's order and rejected the marriage arranged by His Majesty. This made Yu Tao ecstatic. She knew that her chance had come and she must not miss it!

    Therefore, Yu Tao could not wait to ask Huo Zheng out in the name of Yu Shan. She hoped that with the identity of Yu Tao, Huo Zheng would fall in love with her. Anyway, Huo Zheng also rejected His Majesty's marriage, and it would be impossible for him to be with the princess in the future. She just needed to take this opportunity to firmly grasp Huo Zheng's heart!

    "It turns out to be Miss Yu. Why don't I see Yu Shan? He said he had something important to discuss, so I rushed over." Huo Zheng looked around, but did not see Yu Shan.

    Yu Tao smoothed the hair around her ears. It was the first time she appeared in front of Huo Zheng as a girl. She looked at Huo Zheng nervously and shyly, trying to show her beautiful face. She said coquettishly, "Actually, it's nothing important. I just pestered my brother to accompany me to the lake. My brother had official business, so he asked you out. He said that if it wasn't for important matters, you wouldn't come out."

    But she was just flirting with him. When Huo Zheng heard her words, he frowned. He was not a fool. He could see that Yu Shan wanted to match him and his Meimei. But he already had a lover, so why bother to mess with the girl. "I am busy with

    official business. Your brother wrote to me saying that he had something important to do, so I took the time to keep the appointment. If Miss Yu is free, I will take my leave." Huo Zheng bowed to her and said in a businesslike manner.
