In a world where there are more men than women, I am spoiled

Chapter 1311 Why are you so confrontational with me?

"The wife has finished the job. The evidence of the Li family's eldest branch's corruption, oppression of the people, and selling official positions has been presented to His Majesty. His Majesty was furious and has thrown all the members of the Li family's eldest branch into the imperial prison."

"His Majesty should know about their actions against Qi's younger brother. They will be severely punished this time, and the Li clan members of the fourth and fifth branches will also be implicated."

"So, does that mean the second branch of the Li family can escape unscathed?"

“My lady, the current head of the second branch of the Li family is Li Zewen. He provided most of the evidence to punish the Li family. He is a clean and efficient man. The other day, he came to our mansion in person and made a promise that the Li family will not oppose us again.”

"We will support Sweetie's succession to the throne in the future to stabilize the political situation."

“My lady, this Li Zewen… is indeed not simple. The Li clan’s foundation, retainers, and connections all turned to him the moment the main branch fell. Now he is the new patriarch and head of the Li clan,” Cui Yiyang said with a hint of probing.

"If Yiyang says so, this person is indeed formidable. Fortunately, he doesn't intend to be our enemy, otherwise it would be quite difficult for us to deal with him."

Hearing Su Yueyao's innocent approval of Li Zewen, the group failed to pick up on the probing tone in Cui Yiyang's voice and were unsure how to bring it up.

Lin Zixu couldn't help but say, "My lady, have you forgotten? This man is also plotting to marry you! The Li family's connections and power are now all in his hands. What do you plan to do, my lady?"

"No matter what, I don't plan to marry him. When we get back, you guys keep an eye on things. If Wenren Qichi hadn't saved Feng Qi and then saved my life, I wouldn't have even considered marrying him," Su Yueyao said irritably.

"Really, my lady? Then we'll go all out and push them away!"

"Okay, let's move it!"

She really didn't want to think about getting married anymore. There were still many things to deal with. She hadn't submitted a memorial yet regarding abolishing the law that required men to marry before the age of twenty-two!

She will have to attend court when she returns, and her previous leisurely life will be gone. After she gives birth to her child, if she doesn't govern the Phoenix Kingdom well, how will she have the opportunity to travel?

The group smiled as they looked at Su Yueyao's face, which clearly showed her resistance to marrying a husband.

Huan Yanxi joked, "It's good that I don't marry a wife. Otherwise, with all of them being so capable, it would put a lot of pressure on me."

Su Yueyao looked at Huan Yanxi, who was all smiles, and said, "Pressure is the driving force. Yanxi, do your best in the future. I have high hopes for you."

"My wife does feel pressured, but I can't seem to get motivated. I don't have their shrewdness and resourcefulness. I just want to spend more of my free time with my wife."

Everyone nodded in agreement upon hearing Huan Yanxi's words.

"Yes, my wife, we just want to spend more time with you."

“If you marry too many men, it will be difficult for us to even see you. Now it’s just right. In the future, we can take turns serving our wives and taking care of the children,” Lin Zixu said with a smile.

Hearing their words, Su Yueyao smiled and said, "You've made excellent arrangements. Let's keep it that way."

The eldest prince and his companions made a casual remark that made Su Yueyao laugh. Everyone looked at Su Yueyao's smile and felt a tenderness in their hearts, gazing at her with deep affection.

"Does Yiyang Feng have anything else to do?" Su Yueyao asked with a yawn.

Seeing that Su Yueyao looked tired, Cui Yiyang immediately continued what he hadn't finished saying: "My lady, there's one more thing. Our people in the palace have sent word that the Empress has angered His Majesty again. If nothing unexpected happens, His Majesty will issue an edict to depose the Empress in the next two days."

Upon hearing that the Empress had been deposed, Su Yueyao immediately perked up and asked, "Deposed? So quickly? Logically speaking, after dealing with the Li clan, it's not appropriate to deal with the Empress as well, otherwise everyone will subconsciously think that His Majesty is too ruthless."

"My lady, there must be someone helping us behind the scenes. His Majesty's ruthless decision to depose the Empress suggests that someone gave him something."

"Is the person helping us behind the scenes Li Zewen's men?" Su Yueyao guessed immediately.

"It shouldn't be the wife. Li Zewen has just taken power and doesn't have many people in the palace, so he can't do that."

"Is that Wenren Qichi?" Su Yueyao asked in confusion.

"I don't know, we haven't found out."

"Whether he helped or not, I'll ask him myself later. Yiyang, you and Nanfeng have traveled a long way here, you must be tired. Go wash up first, and we'll have dinner together in a bit."

"Good wife."

Cui Yiyang and Nanfeng bowed and then left.

"I'm going back to my room to rest for a while too," Su Yueyao said, standing up.

"Your wife and Yan Xi are with you," the First Prince said, supporting Su Yueyao.

"Okay!" Su Yueyao nodded.

. . . . . . . . . . .

At this moment, Wenren Qichi's room is not as cozy as this place.

After Cheng Yan dragged Wenren Qichi out of Su Yueyao's sight, she exuded a cold aura, and her face turned ashen.

Wenren Qichi seemed oblivious, silently following along until they returned to Wenren Qichi's room.

When the medicine arrived, Cheng Yan stared at Wenren Qichi with an icy expression and an extremely low aura. Wenren Qichi, on the other hand, sat calmly on the bed with a pale face, and there were obvious bloodstains on his clothes.

"What's wrong? Young Master Wenren, even if you have a good medicine like Shengjin Ointment, you can't do this to him! You want to apply it a few more times and run a few more high fevers to get the Lady to come over!" Cheng Yao sat down by the bed and began to treat his wounds, teasing him.

"I didn't mean that; today was an accident."

"Ha! That's not what I meant. You're saying it's unexpected? In front of so many people, you misled my wife into saying things related to you. Now, rumors will be flying everywhere, which will give you an extra advantage in getting my wife to marry you?" Cheng Yan sneered.

"Young Master Cheng, why are you so hostile towards me? Didn't I leave today as you instructed? I didn't expect to run into you."

Upon hearing Wenren Qichi's use of the word "hu," Cheng Yan angrily pointed at him and cried out, "You...you..."

He just said it casually, telling him to leave, and he actually left. If the wife knew that Wenren Qichi left because he had told him to leave, and that he was the one who set the stage for today's events, she would feel utterly hopeless.

He didn't even know how he would explain to his wife when he got back... His world was collapsing, and he still had to be annoyed by her here. Why was he so unlucky?

Completely desperate, Cheng Yan paced back and forth in the room.
