Wild Princess: Marrying an Ugly Prince - Chapter 283

Chapter 283 A Victim of Political Interest

The pro-marriage team was sent under the protection of Meng Fei and arrived in the Chengxi Dynasty safely all the way.

It would be welcomed by Jun Wuhen in person.

Luoyan looked at Bai Aoxue and said softly, “Aoxue, we will be in the Chengxi Dynasty in a minute. If you leave now, there’s still time. I don’t want you to go to the Imperial Palace with me. It’s too dangerous.”

As soon as Bai Aoxue who was originally observing the situation outside listened to the words of Luoyan, she slightly tilted her head to look at Luoyan. Then she continued to look out of the window.

“I said that I would follow you into the Imperial Palace. So, I will follow you to go there. Under the circumstances, you don’t need to persuade me anymore.” Her light tone was very firm and undoubted.

When Luoyan heard what Bai Aoxue said, she no longer forced her.

Looking at the city gate approaching gradually in front of her, Bai Aoxue sighed slightly with emotion in her heart.

She had only been away for a few months, and so many things had already happened. She had experienced life and death. She almost thought she could not come back. She almost thought she would say goodbye to the world.

She didn’t expect that she could come back here alive, and she could come back to the place where all cause and effect began.

In any case, since everything started here, then everything had to end here. Whether it was rebirth or destruction, it must start here.

Luoyan looked at Bai Aoxue at this moment, and she was actually speechless.

Her unshakable, stubborn, and determined eyes were irresistible for others. Even a woman like her couldn’t ignore this kind of light.

“It seems that the Chengxi Dynasty attaches great importance to this marriage. Even Jun Wuhen came to welcome the team in person.” Bai Aoxue looked at the bright yellow figure in front of her and said in a somewhat sarcastic tone.

As soon as Luoyan heard what Bai Aoxue said, she was stunned slightly.

Bai Aoxue lowered the curtain of the carriage and turned to look at Luoyan, saying, “Don’t show any flaws. You must remember that Jun Wuhen is very cunning and careful. Don’t relax in front of him. After seeing him later, I will be Qinglan instead of Bai Aoxue. Don’t forget it.”

As soon as Luoyan heard Bai Aoxue’s words, she nodded gently. She also had a little caution in her eyes.

Since Bai Aoxue commented on Jun Wuhen in this way, Jun Wuhen was really not a very easy person to deal with.

She only had a hurried fight with him last time. If she had not been helped by Bai Aoxue, she would have been tricked by Jun Wuhen. Now she thought that Jun Wuhen was really very cunning.

While on this side, Jun Wuhen looked at the pro-marriage team approaching gradually, and there was a smile at the corners of his mouth.

In any case, Luoyan finally belonged to him. Even if Ye Zhaojue got Luoyan in the beginning, so what? Now, she was still obedient to fall into his arms.

The person who finally won was still him, Jun Wuhen.

Now, Ye Zhaojue was imprisoned by him. He just waited for Jun Yeyan to come back and used Ye Zhaojue as a bargaining chip to threaten Jun Yeyan. In any case, Jun Yeyan wouldn’t just watch Ye Zhaojue die.

As long as he still had Ye Zhaojue in his hands now, whether Jun Yeyan was the Dark King or not, he had nothing to fear.

Without the letters brought by the person sent by Qi Liange, he still did not know that his brother who pretended to be foolish and deceived people was actually the Dark King who controlled the whole Great Continent.

At first, when he knew the news, he was actually shocked and even a little flurried. If Jun Yeyan was really the Dark King, then it would be only a matter of time before Jun Yeyan destroyed everything for him and took everything away from him.

But he had never realized that he had allowed his enemy to live around him for more than a decade like this.

He not only did not know it but also let the enemy get stronger and stronger day by day. Now only his power and ability were no longer enough to beat down or defeat this enemy.

Now, he could only join hands with others.

While he was still thinking anxiously, the Mobei Dynasty brought the news that they wanted to make peace with the Chengxi Dynasty by marriage. He was more than happy to do so.

Not to mention the belligerent people of the Mobei Dynasty, as long as he made peace with the Mobei Dynasty by marriage, on the other hand, he could also join forces with the Mobei Dynasty to attack the Nanyue Dynasty. After all, Qi Liange had always been a great hidden danger.

He was able to wipe out the enemies around him and firmly sit on the throne in a short period of time. How could he be a simple man?

As long as he made peace with the Mobei Dynasty by marriage, he could marry Luoyan, and he could also occupy the Nanyue Dynasty. Then why should he refuse to do so since he was glad?

This was just an example of killing three birds with one stone.

At that time, he cleared the Nanyue Dynasty, so the destruction of the Mobei Dynasty was just around the corner. At that time, the whole world would be his own.

As long as he thought about it like this, Jun Wuhen was very excited.

The pro-marriage team finally came to the capital of the Chengxi Dynasty in Jun Wuhen’s expectation. At this moment, the people of the capital all came to watch, but there were also some people who didn’t want to see Luoyan.

Although they were not very clear about it, they all knew that General Ye’s death had something to do with Luoyan.

Although they didn’t quite understand why the current emperor said that Ye Zhaojue rebelled against the imperial court, many people in the capital didn’t believe it. They all knew clearly what kind of person General Ye was, and such a person couldn’t have rebelled against the imperial court.

Therefore, Bai Aoxue did not know that when the emperor’s list came down that day, seeing that Ye Zhaojue died in a foreign land and planned to mobilize troops to rebel against the imperial court, many people did not believe it. Some people were even more excited to condemn the imperial court.

Jun Wuhen was faced with the queries from the people and the condemnation from some officials who were close to Ye Zhaojue in the imperial court, but he still authenticated Ye Zhaojue’s guilty of rebellion.

What was more, some folk songs insulting Jun Wuhen spread among the people, and in a fit of anger, Jun Wuhen beheaded all those people who sang such songs.

He killed a lot of people regardless of popular feelings. Of course, there were also some officials who wanted to redress an injustice for Ye Zhaojue, but Jun Wuhen found a variety of reasons to exile them or behead them.

Nowadays, whether it was in the folk or in the imperial court, no one dared to mention these things again.

Even if there were doubts in people’s hearts, they dared not to say it out again.

Because Jun Wuhen’s resolute and vigorous way of doing things, as well as his attitude of killing wantonly, made the hearts of the people cold.

Bai Aoxue followed Luoyan into the Imperial Palace. A series of welcomes and title-conferring ceremonies made Luoyan and Bai Aoxue exhausted.

As a personal maidservant around Luoyan, Bai Aoxue, of course, followed Luoyan closely step by step, which showed her loyalty.

Just as she expected in the beginning, Jun Wuhen wisely controlled the power of Luoyan. Among those three thousand women in the imperial harem, she was just a concubine.

Jun Wuhen couldn’t let Luoyan have real power in the Chengxi Dynasty. Luoyan was just a symbol of a friendly deal between the Chengxi Dynasty and the Mobei Dynasty.

Bai Aoxue looked at Luoyan dressed in red like the burning fire and said softly, “Tonight… Jun Wuhen will not come to sleep with you here definitely.”

As soon as Luoyan listened to Bai Aoxue’s words, her originally dim eyes flashed with a glimmer of light, which could not be detected easily.

Luoyan looked at Bai Aoxue and said puzzledly, “Why?”

Bai Aoxue carefully analyzed it for Luoyan and said, “Don’t forget that you are not the only woman in this imperial harem. Although you are a princess, you are still from another country. And the Mobei Dynasty and the Chengxi Dynasty have been at war for many years, and they have stopped fighting because of you now. But there is still a huge estrangement between them. If Jun Wuhen comes to sleep with you here tonight, it will be equivalent to giving you the power. This will allow you to nourish your own power. It is impossible for such a cunning man like Jun Wuhen to do so.”

Luoyan listened to Bai Aoxue’s words and felt that Bai Aoxue’s analysis was reasonable. She did not expect that she could even know clearly Jun Wuhen’s thoughts.

Bai Aoxue paused for a while and then continued to say, “If he doesn’t come over tonight, it means that he doesn’t attach so much importance to you. He came out to welcome you, which was just shown to the people of the Mobei Dynasty. But in fact, the trick that he will play at night is the most ruthless one. He praised you to the sky in the beginning but will let you fall down at night.”

As soon as Luoyan listened to Bai Aoxue’s words, she looked at Bai Aoxue and said softly, “What if he comes here?”

On hearing Luoyan’s words, Bai Aoxue smiled and said, “This is exactly what I want to say next. If he comes over, it means that he values you very much. Of course, this is the case on the surface, but in the future, there will be two servant girls given by him around you definitely.”

She said softly to pacify her, “If he really comes here, you don’t have to worry. I won’t let him touch you.” How could Bai Aoxue not see the anxiety in Luoyan’s eyes?

As soon as Luoyan listened to Bai Aoxue’s words, she smiled bitterly. But she didn’t say anything.

Bai Aoxue turned to look at the sky outside the window and whispered, “Have a good rest first. You still need to deal with Jun Wuhen in the evening.”

Luoyan nodded. In any case, since she had chosen this path, she was bound to go on.

She was no longer pure and clean. Would Ye Zhaojue still want such a person like her?

Watching Luoyan rest, Bai Aoxue carefully closed the door for her and entered the side hall.

Bai Aoxue didn’t see the signal of Jun Yeyan for a long time. She was a little anxious and thought about finding time to go out and have a look.

When she was thinking like this, Bai Aoxue’s eyes turned cold. The double knives in her sleeves were clenched tightly and ready to attack at any time.

But in the next second, she fell into the arms she was very familiar with.

The smell of cold sandalwood filled up her breath in an instant. Behind her, his embrace that could make her feel at ease and his arms that held her tightly both made her sentimentally attached.

“I miss you so much. I miss Xue so much…” The evil, enchanting, and hoarse male voice whispered softly in Bai Aoxue’s ear with a bit of coquettish flavor.

Bai Aoxue shook all over, but her cheeks flushed disgracefully.

There was always nothing she could do to Jun Yeyan like this. As long as he slightly acted coquettishly, she had already been defeated.

The quiet and sweet atmosphere made neither of them open their mouths to break it.

They both enjoyed the hug after the separation very much.

After a long time, Bai Aoxue said softly, “When did you come back? Why didn’t you give me any message?”

His slender fingers slid down and clasped Bai Aoxue’s fingers tightly.

Looking at their tightly entangled fingers, Jun Yeyan slightly raised the corners of his mouth and showed a wild smile.

“I came back a little earlier than you. I wanted to surprise you. Of course, I couldn’t tell you.” The evil, enchanting, and hoarse voice sounded in the ears of Bai Aoxue with his light and clear breath.

The small goose bumps appeared because of the breath of Jun Yeyan. Bai Aoxue secretly scolded herself for her awkward behavior in her heart. She was always very sensitive around Jun Yeyan.

“You…” Bai Aoxue just wanted to speak.

But Jun Yeyan gently turned her head with one hand. The face turned to one side, and then his enlarged handsome face appeared.

In an instant, the whole world was full of light and shallow cold sandalwood, which softened the senses.

His thin lips kissed her, and there was a wicked smile of satisfaction at the corners of Jun Yeyan’s mouth. A pair of narrow and long phoenix-like eyes smiled just like a crescent moon.
