Chapter 49 Midnight Fright

  "Pffft!"

  "What? You're going to marry Miss Qin Luo Yi of the Qin family?"

  "Your Highness, what kind of joke are you playing? This joke is not funny at all!"

  "It's true, that's the infamous ugly girl of the Town South King's Manor! Your Highness, why would you want to marry her? You're not afraid that after marriage, you'll be sleeping next to a terrifying night demon and having nightmares every night?"

  "This can't be true, I must have misheard. How could Your Highness possibly want to marry that useless woman?!"

  "Your Highness, you don't have to worry that after the Third Prince and the King of Southern Peace form an alliance through marriage, the Emperor's heart will lean towards the Third Prince. You are the Crown Prince, now the Crown Princess, and in the future, you will be the one who sets a good example for the world. The Emperor not allowing you to marry that ugly girl is actually for your own good..."

  ……

  Across from Xianling Square, not far away, was a famous wine house in the capital. In the elegant room on the third floor, three young men were startled by a sudden sentence from Prince Chu Yiyu, spitting out the beautiful wine in their mouths, and suddenly stood up, their eyes disbelievingly staring at their master, their mouths immediately advising.

  It's too hard to accept!

  The three of them, as the most loyal subordinates of His Highness the Crown Prince, had been out for two months. But today was different. The wise and extraordinary Crown Prince, who always had a plan in mind, unexpectedly wanted to marry that ugly woman. That woman's face was ugly and her body was crippled, how could she be worthy of the noble and majestic Crown Prince?

  The three of them exchanged a glance, and in each other's eyes, they saw the same resolute expression... No way, they had to think of every possible means to dispel such thoughts from the Emperor!

  Not to mention that the woman has already been betrothed to the Third Prince, Your Highness is speaking out of turn by saying this now, and it will only lead to ridicule... Even if they weren't engaged, Your Highness wouldn't need to marry that woman anyway!

  A majestic purple robe, Chu Yifeng stood by the window, his hands clasped behind his back, looking at his three trusted subordinates, his face turning very unsightly.

  If it wasn't for his quick wit and sharp reaction, the person sitting across from them would have been splashed with wine all over their body! And... what did they say about Yier? Was she ugly? A female demon? And having nightmares every night?

  His perfect thin lips were pursed tightly, and a thick anger flashed in his pitch-black eyes. How did he never know that their words could be so venomous! So harsh to hear!

  Narrowing his eyes, he glared at them menacingly and said in a low tone: "Remember, she will also be your master, the crown prince's consort, and the future empress. I don't want to hear such talk again!"

  A low, magnetic voice full of thick warnings.

  As soon as he thought that Qin Luoyi would hear these words in the future, those clever and spirited eyes, which were unparalleled in their sparkle, would be filled with painful and wronged sorrow, his heart would tighten.

  "Your Highness, you really want to marry that ugly girl?"

  Sī Kōng Chén saw that their persuasion not only failed to dispel the Crown Prince's sudden and inexplicable idea, but also made the Crown Prince furious, rarely scolding them... He was so shocked that his chin almost fell to the ground!

  They followed the lord for nearly ten years, reading and practicing together, and later entering the military to fight enemies... They had eaten at the same table and even slept on the same bed, but when had they ever seen the lord so furious?

  What's more, it was all because of a woman!

  Didn't something happen in these two months in Beijing that they don't know about?

  A sharp glint flashed in his eyes, and he glanced at Lin Yun and Ouyang Ye, who were equally astonished beside him. The three of them simultaneously shifted their gaze to Gong Liu, who was standing by the door.

  Gong Liu grasped the dark guard beside Your Majesty, was the head of all the dark guards. If anything were to happen to the Crown Prince, the person who would be most clear about it would be Gong Liu and Mo Sui Feng!

  She stood upright with her eyes cast down at the bridge of her nose, her nose in turn looking as if it were observing her heart, seemingly oblivious to the strange looks they were casting her way.

  "Si Kong Chen, didn't you hear what I just said?" Chu Yifeng's eyes suddenly turned sharp and overbearing as he saw Si Kong Chen ignore his warning and call Qin Luoyi an ugly girl.

  Sishi's heart skipped a beat, and he didn't dare speak again.

  Ouyang Ye couldn't help but mutter under his breath, "Your Highness, she was originally an ugly girl, that face is so ugly it can't be shown to people. Even if we don't say anything, the whole city of Jing and even the entire Chu State know about it..."

  Bang!

  Before he could finish speaking, a teacup flew towards his head, brushing past his ear and smashing heavily into the wall behind him, shattering into pieces all over the floor.

  Ouyang Ye looked at the scattered magnetic pieces on the ground, his mouth agape in shock, and was about to speak when Lin Yun hastily pulled him back, casting him a warning glance.

  Your Highness seems a bit off today, actually being so protective of Qin Luoyi... Some things are better left unsaid until they've figured out what's going on.

  Chu Yifeng looked at the three people's obviously shocked and astonished expressions, his smiling lips pursed tightly, without speaking, standing by the window gazing into the distance.

  In four months' time, it will be the wedding day of the imperial gift... During this period, he has secretly taken action several times, and even brought back Du Yudie, who was originally unaware of this matter and was far away in a distant land. However, his third brother still does not intend to dissolve the engagement!

  As soon as he thought that if he couldn't handle this matter successfully, the fact that Qin Luoyi wasn't a virgin on their wedding night would definitely not be hidden... his heart became inexplicably anxious.

  And at that time, Qin Luoyi would even moan and whisper softly under Chu Yixiu's body... He also had an urge to kill someone!

  Heaving a deep sigh, he should have firmly opposed this marriage when his father consulted him at the beginning!

  It's just that he had too much faith in Qin Lingyun, the King of Zhen Nan.

  For more than a year, they have been getting along well in the army, knowing each other's thoughts and cherishing each other. They know he is not someone who would sacrifice the overall situation for his own benefit, and they also know that he is very worried about Qin Luoyi's lifelong event...

  Qin Lingyun's cultivation was too high, after being appointed as the King of Zhen Nan, he had already been granted everything that could be granted. The marriage between the imperial family and the Qin family was something that Father Emperor wanted to further solidify the relationship between the Chu and Qin families, after all, Wu Sheng was the absolute strongest on this continent.

  ……

  His gaze returned from the azure sky, and a familiar figure outside Xianling Street caught his attention. He raised an eyebrow to take a look, and it was actually Chu Yixiu.

  Standing beside him were the two brothers of the Du family, Du Leng Ye and Du Leng Mo. Looking in his direction, he unexpectedly discovered that they all seemed to be gazing intently at a distant figure walking away...

  Chu Yifeng hummed softly, a hint of a charming smile playing on his lips, but the smile didn't quite reach his eyes. His younger brother had many romantic conquests... This woman was probably another one of his admirers!

  I heard that at the beginning, when he just knew that his father would give Qin Luyi to him in marriage, he was extremely dissatisfied... Unexpectedly, now that he has created an opportunity for himself, he actually didn't back out of the engagement either, it's really intriguing!

  Zhen'nan Wangfu

  A feeling of being peeped at made Qin Luoyi suddenly wake up from his sleep, his eyes wide open, but he stared abruptly into a pair of pitch-black eyes, the hairs on his body standing upright, almost shouting out loud.
