Chapter 370: I Disagree
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Although it was noisy outside, it was not difficult for those who practiced martial arts to hear those words clearly.
Yu Yunxi opened her eyes immediately, and they glinted coldly.
This time, Qian Qing and Meng Xia accompanied Yu Yunxi out. They knew about Yu Yunxi and Feng Yili’s relationship so when they overheard the conversation, they were very worried.
Qian Qing hurriedly said to comfort Yu Yunxi, “Eldest Princess, perhaps this is just a rumor!”
Yu Yunxi lowered her gaze and looked at the teacup in her hand. Her gaze was extremely cold.
‘No one can snatch away the person I like!’
She has already accepted Feng Yili in her heart. How could she allow someone else to take him away?
When Yu Yunxi looked up again, her gaze was very calm. She said, “Let’s not enter the palace today. Go to the King of Youshan’s Residence.”
The King of Youshan’s Residence.
The little bun sat on the threshold with his face in his hands. The word ‘dissatisfied’ could almost be seen on his chubby face.
Luo Xiuran walked over and sat next to the little bun before he fanned himself and asked, “Little Junjin, why are you unhappy?
As soon as the little bun saw Luo Xiuran, he scoffed and said unhappily, “Don’t get too close to me! You’re just like Father. You’re a liar!”
Luo Xiuran:
Luo Xiuran scratched his head awkwardly before he said softly, “Junjin, I understand that you’re angry with your father, but you can’t simply accuse me because of that.’
Then, Luo Xiuran brought a piece of candy out and handed it to the little bun before he asked patiently, “Alright. Why don’t you tell me how your father made you angry this time?”
The little bun glanced at the candy before he said disdainfully, “I’m not a child anymore. Don’t try to trick me with a piece of candy.” Luo Xiuran:
‘This fellow is really harder to deal with than his father.’
Luo Xiuran was very patient and asked again, “Alright, alright. Why don’t you tell me how your father made you angry?
Luo Xiuran was really curious as to how Feng Yili had angered the little bun again.
“Father promised me last night that he would bring me to see Mother. However, after he put me to sleep, he snuck off to look for Mother on his own!” the little bun said through gritted teeth.
Luo Xiuran cleared his throat awkwardly.
‘That does seem like something Yili would do…’
However, since Feng Yili was like a brother to him, Luo Xiuran naturally spoke on Feng Yili’s behalf. He said comfortingly, “It’s fine, Junjin. You’re in the capital with your mother now anyway. There’ll be many opportunities for you to see her in the future. Moreover, your mother already knows your identity. Although she has yet to recover her memories, it doesn’t affect her love for you.”
The little bun’s mood improved a lot after listening to Luo Xiuran’s words. He said proudly, “That’s true. If Mother had to choose, I’m sure she’d choose me over Father!”
At this time, Luo Xiuran also recalled the reason he had come over. He asked,
“By the way, where’s your father?”
Although Feng Yili had asked his secret guards to impersonate him in Tianxia, the Emperor’s spies were not fools, after all. As time passed, it was inevitable that they would arouse suspicion.
Luo Xiuran came to discuss this matter with Feng Yili today.
“I heard from the servants that Father didn’t come back last night, ” the little bun said, looking aggrieved.
Just as Luo Xiuran was about to comfort the little bun again, a commotion rang from the front yard.
Soon after, Jiang Ying hurried over and reported, “Young Marquis Luo, Little Prince, an imperial edict came from the palace.”
‘An imperial edict?’
Luo Xiuran and the little bun exchanged a look. Their expressions were solemn.
“Junjin, wait here. I’ll go and see what’s going on,” Luo Xiuran said seriously.
The little bun clasped his hands on his back and said seriously, “I’m my father’s son. I can deal with anything that comes my way.”
Luo Xiuran felt as though he was looking at Feng Yili at this moment.
‘Forget it. Let him follow if that’s what he wants… With so many people in the residence, the little fellow’s safety is guaranteed…’
When the duo arrived at the front yard, they saw a few eunuchs pacing back and forth anxiously.
Coincidentally, Feng Yili also returned at this time. He had already put on his fanged mask.
Huang Xing had served the Emperor for many years, and he was naturally smart and steady. However, when faced with Feng Yili, he could not help but feel a chill running up his spine. He pretended to be calm as he said, “King of Youshan, you’re finally back. I’m here to deliver good news!” “Good news?”
‘How could there possibly be good news from the palace?’
Feng Yili raised an eyebrow, and his gaze turned even colder.
Huang Xing was almost frightened to death by the pressure Feng Yili emitted. He wiped the cold sweat off his forehead and forced a smile on his face before he said, “King of Youshan, you’ll find out soon enough.”
Then, Huang Xing opened the imperial edict and said, “King of Youshan, prepare to accept the imperial edict.”
Huang Xing waited for Feng Yili to kneel before he read the imperial edict. Unexpectedly, after waiting for a long time, there was still no movement from the other party.
Huang Xing cleared his throat and said again, “King of Youshan, prepare to accept the imperial edict.”
Feng Yili still showed no signs of moving.
Huang Xing’s face turned purple.
‘This King of Youshan is really bold. Forget it, forget it. If he doesn’t kneel, I’ll just complain about it to the Emperor later. The most important thing now is to convey the Emperor’s imperial edict to him. The King of Youshan’s Residence’s power and influence are growing, and it’s giving the Emperor a headache. That’s why he plans to tie the King of Youshan down with this marriage…’
With all these thoughts in mind, Huang Xing no longer cared if Feng Yili kneeled or not. He cleared his throat and prepared to read the imperial edict.
Unexpectedly, before Huang Xing had a chance to speak, Feng Yili said impatiently, “Just tell me what the Emperor wants…”
“I-i-im…”
Huang Xing pointed at Feng Yili tremblingly.
‘The King of Youshan actually dares to show such an attitude toward the Emperor! He’s really not afraid of losing his head!’
However, Huang Xing could only stammer; he did not dare to say the word ‘impudent’. He was silenced and frightened by Feng Yili’s chilly gaze. He withdrew his hand nervously and did not even dare to look at Feng Yili. ‘The King of Youshan’s aura is even more terrifying than that of the Emperor…’
After a long time, Huang Xing said tremblingly, “C-congratulations, King of Youshan. The Emperor has bestowed on you and the Sixth Princess a marriage.”
Silence descended immediately, and a gloomy atmosphere loomed over the entire place.
The little bun, who was nearby, heard these words clearly, and flames of fury were instantly ignited in his heart.
‘Marriage? What’s Mother going to do if the Emperor really forces Father to marry the Sixth Princess?’
Without a second thought, the little bun shouted, “I disagree!”
