Compromise

The King's eyes brightened, as Lord Huai was mentioned. His mind became chaotic, and he seemed really confident. Gu Chaoyan did care about Lord Huai, and she had been asking him about why Lord Huai was grounded. Yes, she wanted to get Lord Huai out.

Even when the Crown Prince tried to marry her, she still insisted on marrying Lord Huai!

Then he was going to satisfy her.

It did not matter if the Crown Prince married the Phoenix Girl, because he was going to live forever and the Crown Prince was no longer needed.

He also needed to think about when to get rid of the Crown Prince.

Then Zhou Huaijin could marry the Phoenix Girl, and it would be fine!

Zhou Huaijin was a useless piece of trash so he would not be able to do anything, even if he married that girl.
