Chapter 134 Deliberate Lying
"Regret?" Chu Anlan finally came to his senses: "You want to break off the engagement with me?"
The corners of Ye Wanqing's lips moved: "Sorry..."
She didn't want to cancel the engagement, but she had too many secrets and couldn't tell Chu Anlan everything now, otherwise, he would fall into deeper danger.
Although it was not glorious to use the method of retreat to advance against him, she really did not want the marriage she had worked so hard for to end.
As expected, Chu Anlan said angrily: "Don't even think about canceling the engagement! Unless I die, I will never give you to Lu Jilian! I tell you, I... um..."
His words were completely blocked in his mouth.
Ye Wanqing covered his mouth and said, "I understand what the prince means. I will not break off the engagement with the prince, nor will I mention this matter again. So, please do not mention the word 'death' in front of me again."
"Hmm!" Chu Anlan struggled to pull her hand away and held it in his palm: "If you dare to cancel the engagement, I will disregard etiquette and force the matter to be settled. You know I will keep my word."
Ye Wanqing stared at him for a moment: "Okay."
"What's good?" Chu Anlan's chest rose and fell violently, and he exhaled a long breath of turbid air: "I have suffered so much injustice today, and you won't comfort me?"
coax?
How to coax?
Ye Wanqing looked down at the hand he was holding: "Do you still have any incense? If it's almost used up, I'll make it again for you..."
"I still have half a box of the incense you gave me last time." Chu Anlan smiled and said, "I'll use it every day, and I can use it until after the wedding."
Ye Wanqing smiled and said, "That's the green plum fragrance. If you have any other fragrance you like, you can tell me and I will make it for you."
"I don't want any other fragrance, I like the original one very much." Chu Anlan held her hand tightly and suddenly asked, "Qing'er, are you trying to change the subject now?"
"What?" Ye Wanqing played dumb.
"I know you understand what I'm talking about." Chu Anlan frowned again: "You haven't explained clearly what happened just now!"
Ye Wanqing sighed inwardly: "Just now in the flower hall, I didn't mean to be angry with you, I just couldn't understand why things had developed to this point..."
What Fu Yu did today was completely beyond her expectations.
She had been secretly planning for so long, sending people to investigate Prince Duan's mansion and laying out her plans.
More importantly, the development of events in this life and the previous life are completely different.
All the people most important to her were involved.
She looked into Chu Anlan's eyes seriously: "Your Highness is the person I care about most in this world besides my parents, elder brothers and younger brothers. I hope you can live a free and happy life without worries and live a long life."
"Every time you make a wish, you are wishing me a long life." Chu Anlan said.
Ye Wanqing smiled and said, "Then I'll do something different this time?"
"What is it?" Chu Anlan asked curiously.
Ye Wanqing looked at his face, which was illuminated by the setting sun, and said seriously, "My first wish is that you and I can live together forever. My second wish is that whatever you ask for can be granted."
Chu Anlan was overjoyed when he heard this, and he was full of energy and enthusiasm: "I have nothing else to ask for in my life, and God will surely fulfill my wish of growing old with you!"
"Yeah." Ye Wanqing narrowed her eyes.
Chu Anlan smiled brightly at her.
Looking at his soft and smooth lips, Ye Wanqing curled the corners of her lips and leaned forward to kiss him: "It's getting late, the prince should go back to the palace."
After saying that, he was about to withdraw.
Suddenly, my wrist was grabbed tightly.
Although it was only a light kiss, Chu Anlan's lips became brighter: "Didn't you say that we would have dinner together tonight?"
Ye Wanqing was stunned: "I..."
"There's still time." Chu Anlan lowered his head and kissed her back, then glanced at the sky: "Wait for me in the mansion. I'll ride a fast horse to Prince Duan's mansion. Once this misunderstanding is resolved, you can have a peaceful meal and sleep tonight."
Misunderstand?
How great would it be if Prince Duan’s rebellion was just a misunderstanding?
Ye Wanqing's eyes flashed: "My Lord, go early and come back early, try not to get into physical conflicts with others, and don't hurt yourself."
"Don't worry." Chu Anlan held her hand and said, "Let's go, I'll take you back to the flower hall first." Ye Chenting and Ye Chenxi were still waiting.
The three of them went out together.
Ye Wanqing was worried, so she sent another team of guards to follow.
As night fell, the guard returned with the message:
"Prince Dun and his companions met Prince Duan halfway. The prince asked Prince Duan if he admired the princess, and Prince Duan answered 'yes'."
"what?"
Yingxiang and Qianxi were both shocked.
Ye Wanqing frowned.
Chu Xiaoyan was lying on purpose.
The two of them had never had any other interactions, and it was absolutely impossible for Chu Xiaoyan to have such thoughts about her.
So, he condoned Liao Fuyu's actions?
He also wanted to take this opportunity to have the Princess's Mansion and Prince Dun's Mansion sever their ties with his family?
It should be like this.
Seeing that Ye Wanqing didn't say anything, the guard continued, "The prince went up and punched Chu Xiaoyan, and the two of them started fighting. They were so close that they both fell off their horses..."
Fall off a horse?
This is no small matter!
Ye Wanqing suddenly stood up from her chair and asked, "Are the two princes injured?"
The guard said, "When I came back, the two princes were fighting each other. They seemed to have suffered some flesh wounds. They fell on the grain stall on the street, so they should not have any internal injuries."
Ye Wanqing glanced at the sky and said to the guard, "Ride out of the mansion as fast as you can and tell Prince Dun a message for me..."
The guard stepped forward and said, "Princess, please speak."
Ye Wanqing sat back in her chair and said, "Tell the prince that the wedding date is approaching. If he becomes lame or disfigured, the wedding will be postponed indefinitely."
"Yes." The guard responded and quickly went out.
This journey took half an hour.
During this time, Ye Hongwei sent someone to ask: Is the fight over? When will we have dinner?
It would not be good to keep the elders waiting, so Ye Wanqing sent someone to the kitchen to tell them to deliver his father and mother's dinner to their yard first.
At the hour of Xu, there was finally movement outside the mansion gate.
The servant trotted in and said, "Miss, the eldest and second young masters are back!"
Inside and outside the flower hall, the sleepy servants all looked up.
Ye Wanqing stood up and walked to the door of the flower hall.
In the brightly lit corridor, Ye Chenting and Ye Chenxi walked side by side.
Ye Chenting was dressed neatly, and his hair was neatly tied up in a bun, just like before he went out, and tied with an exquisite jade crown and jade hairpin.
Compared with him, Ye Chenxi was in an extremely miserable state.
His clothes were ragged and torn, like a set of rags, and his hair was messy, like a bird's nest.
When you get closer, you can see that there are wounds on his face.
Seeing Ye Wanqing standing under the eaves, Ye Chenxi began to play the victim from a distance: "Sister, I was beaten, it hurts so much..."
Seeing this, Ye Wanqing said helplessly: "The court doctor has been waiting for a long time, come in first and let him take a look at you."
The light in the flower hall is bright.
The court physician carefully examined Ye Chenxi and took his pulse, making sure that he had no internal injuries before treating the bruises and small wounds on his face.
Ye Chenxi grimaced in pain: "If I had known earlier, I shouldn't have gone over to break up the fight! I haven't even proposed yet. If I get disfigured, which noble lady would be willing to marry me? This is too much, too much..."
