Jiaojiao is getting married, and the male leads fall for her and fight over her.

Chapter 314 The princess's scheme fails, and she is instead outmaneuvered by Prince Pei.
Pei Dongzhou had no suspicions and followed the eunuch to a palace.

"Isn't His Highness the Crown Prince in the Wenhua Hall?" Pei Dongzhou's eyes flickered slightly.

The eunuch replied with a smile, "His Highness is coming this way, sir, please wait a moment."

Pei Dongzhou finally realized that the eunuch was referring to His Highness, not His Highness the Crown Prince, and that a princess could also be addressed as His Highness.

Then, recalling the warning his cousin had given him yesterday, he suddenly realized that his cousin was truly prescient. Today, someone might be plotting against him, and possibly even targeting his body.

He remained impassive, glancing around the room. A cold glint flashed in his eyes when he saw the burning incense. Just as the eunuch was about to leave, Pei Dongzhou suddenly struck him on the back of the neck without warning.

Pei Dongzhou was already feeling unwell; his racing heart and feverish body were signs of being under the influence of an aphrodisiac.

Fortunately, Shen Shuyi was prepared in advance, which allowed him to calmly take out the antidote and swallow it.

Then he went to the incense burner and added another hallucinogenic drug to make the incense burn even brighter. He then threw the eunuch onto the couch, stripped him of his clothes, and covered his face with a blanket...

After performing a series of actions, he quietly left the scene.

Before long, the instigator appeared, and it was none other than Princess Pingyuan.

Princess Pingyuan felt feverish as soon as she entered, and when she saw the person on the couch with his back to her, she assumed that was her prey.

She felt her heart pounding faster and faster, her body growing hotter and hotter, and she even saw hallucinations. She stumbled forward and threw herself onto the man on the couch...

Meanwhile, Princess Pingyuan's people had already lured Emperor Jinglong over.

When Emperor Jinglong heard the commotion coming from inside, his expression turned very unpleasant.

He stepped into the palace with a sullen face, and when he saw that Princess Pingyuan was actually having an affair with a eunuch, he was furious.

Before long, news of Princess Pingyuan's affair with the eunuch spread.

Pei Nanzhou was waiting for news of Princess Pingyuan and Pei Dongzhou getting married, but what he got was news of Princess Pingyuan having an affair with a eunuch.

He shook his head and sighed, "Li Jiao is useless."

Qingfeng thought to himself, "How could the young master be such an easy man to be fooled?"
Looking at Princess Pingyuan, she doesn't seem to be very intelligent. Her scheme against Prince Pei failed, and she ended up ruining her own reputation. Emperor Jinglong will probably marry Princess Pingyuan off as soon as possible.

It doesn't matter what kind of family they come from, as long as someone is willing to marry them.

When Princess Pingyuan regained consciousness and learned that the person she had been with was a eunuch, her vision went black.

Without even giving her a chance to explain, Emperor Jinglong stormed off in a fit of rage.

Princess Pingyuan was left only with a burning hatred in her eyes. She had originally intended to scheme against Pei Dongzhou, but in the end, she was the one who was completely ruined by him.

Now, let alone marrying Pei Dongzhou, she has become a disgrace to the royal family, and her father will surely marry her off as soon as possible.

Li Yi had also heard about this. He looked at the refined and elegant young master Pei Shizi beside him and asked in a low voice, "Did you cause Ajiao's affair?"

"I don't know, I'm not sure, I don't understand." Pei Dongzhou was as gentle and harmless as ever.

Li Yi would be a fool to believe him.

If this wasn't Pei Dongzhou's doing, he could take Pei Dongzhou's surname.

So why did Li Jiao set her sights on Pei Dongzhou? No matter how handsome the young master Pei is, he's already taken. How could he possibly be schemed against by Princess Pingyuan? It's already a mercy that Pei Dongzhou didn't find Princess Pingyuan a real man this time.

Just as Li Yi was inwardly complaining, he heard Pei Dongzhou say, "Speaking of which, I'm actually quite lucky. It's all thanks to my cousin. She's my lucky star."

Li Yi glanced at Pei Dongzhou and asked with a sneer, "Are you showing off to me?"

"No. Your Highness has no need to be jealous of me. I think the Crown Princess and Your Highness are a very good match. Everyone has their own destined partner. Your Highness should cherish the person in front of you." Pei Dongzhou replied respectfully.

Li Yi didn't believe Pei Dongzhou's nonsense; the young master Pei had clearly been showing off to him.

To be honest, it's truly something to be envious of Pei Dongzhou to be able to marry his cousin Shen.

Just as Li Yi and Pei Dongzhou were about to leave the palace, Princess Pingyuan came over. With red eyes, she looked at Pei Dongzhou and accused him, "How could you be so cruel to me?"

She loves him so much, how could he treat her like this?

Pei Dongzhou simply pushed Li Yi forward, clearly intending for Li Yi to get rid of Princess Pingyuan.

Princess Pingyuan was so angry upon seeing this that she burst into tears: "Dongzhou, I love you, how could you treat me like this?"

Pei Dongzhou looked at Princess Pingyuan with a cold expression and said in a low voice, "Princess, please have some self-respect. I have a family and have no connection with you whatsoever."

Princess Pingyuan refused to give up: "It was clearly you who put me with that eunuch..."

Pei Dongzhou pushed Li Yi directly in front of Princess Pingyuan and said coldly, "This humble official has been with His Highness the Crown Prince the whole time. Princess, please do not make unfounded accusations!"

Li Yi had no choice but to agree, "Yes, Dongzhou has been with me the whole time. Ajiao, what you're doing isn't very kind. You can't just make baseless accusations just because you're a princess. You may be shameless, but Dongzhou is."

Seriously, this is outrageous.

Even though her father caught her in bed with another man, Li Jiao still tried to blackmail Pei Dongzhou. He, as an outsider, couldn't stand it anymore.

"Li Yi, how can you side with him and not with me?!" Princess Pingyuan was furious and roared at Li Yi.

Li Yi's face darkened: "Li Jiao, who gave you the audacity to point your finger at me like that?!"

Do they really think he, the crown prince, is dead?

This was the first time Princess Pingyuan had ever seen Li Yidu act like a prince. She was stunned and immediately lost her words.

"If you dare to cause trouble again, I will report you to the Emperor. You'd better behave yourself!" After saying that, Li Yi took Pei Dongzhou out of the palace.

Princess Pingyuan was left standing there, trembling with anger.

At this moment, Pei Nanzhou walked over and said to Princess Pingyuan, "Now that things have come to this, why don't you just make a big fuss about it?"

Princess Pingyuan was furious when she saw Pei Nanzhou. If she hadn't been instigated by him, why would she have drugged Pei Dongzhou? As a result, she not only failed to achieve her goal, but also ruined her reputation.

"I was ruined by you. If you hadn't instigated me, how could I have ended up like this?" Princess Pingyuan gritted her teeth in hatred.

"I only mentioned it casually, who knew you would actually do it. Even if you were going to do it, you should have achieved your goal, but you were outsmarted by Pei Dongzhou instead. Don't you think you're too pathetic? If I can't have someone, I might as well destroy them. Now that things have come to this, you can only try to extort money from Prince Pei. How about this, you go to the Pingyang Marquis's mansion and make a scene, or go to your cousin and cause trouble. If all else fails, you can spread the word in the capital that Prince Pei ruined your reputation." Pei Nanzhou said leisurely.
