Chapter 454: Chapter 454: Why did you sche against him of all people?_1 Chapter 454: Chapter 454: Why did you sche against him of all people?_1 The Emperor of Xiyun no longer questioned others, but looked towards Xiao Changyi, who was seated to his left and currently sipping his wine with deliberate slowness. He didn’t ask anything but gently called out, “Yi Er.”
While uttering “Yi Er” aloud, the Emperor of Xiyun inwardly sighed: Prince of Pingjun, oh Prince of Pingjun, of all people to sche against, you chose to plot against my Yi Er, this Great Demon King. I cannot protect you any longer; you must fend for yourself.
Xiao Changyi, with an expressionless face, slowly sipped his wine and paid no heed to the Emperor of Xiyun. After a long while, he finally spoke indifferently, “Prince of Pingjun.”
The Prince of Pingjun imdiately raised his head to look at Xiao Changyi.
Everyone also turned their gaze to Xiao Changyi, holding their breath and pricking up their ears, afraid to miss anything.
But Xiao Changyi did not speak again.
The crowd: “…”
If An Jing didn’t have such self-control, she would have undoubtedly burst into laughter. My dear husband, with this behavior of yours, for sure many people are cursing you behind your back.
Xiao Changyi continued to drink his wine leisurely. When he had finished the wine in the green jade cup, he placed it back on the table, and then, for the third ti, he picked up the pitcher on the table filled with sour plum soup.
His wife’s cup had run out of sour plum soup again; he needed to refill it for her.
Just as everyone thought Xiao Changyi wouldn’t speak up, he leisurely poured sour plum soup into An Jing’s cup and finally resud speaking, continuing slowly, “It seems you are unaware that I, Su Changyi, have married into my wife’s family.”
An Jing listened to her husband adopt her own tone of dealing with others, and her heart was so sweet it could sing, while her face broke into a smile so radiant and broad regardless of whether it was appropriate for the occasion.
Crown Princess Ning Wenxian had heard from Su Chengyu about Xiao Changyi’s marital arrangent, so she wasn’t surprised at all. On the contrary, she felt a tinge of envy. Besides herself, the Crown Prince had several concubines.
Married into another family?!!!
The word “married into,” like a bomb, blew away everyone present, not sparing even the normally composed Pri Minister Li.
The King of Eternal Victory had married into another family?!
Good heavens, the King of Eternal Victory had married into another family!
No one felt that the King of Eternal Victory was any less of a man for it; they only felt that he must really adore Princess An Jing to such an extent that he was willing to stay with An Jing, a wife who couldn’t bear children, and grow old with only her.
The Prince and Princess of Pingjun both had faces that alternated between green and white. They had lost all face; they would not be able to hold their heads up in the future, and their house was empty now, nothing but an empty shell. This hinted at the bleakness of their life ahead…
Imperial Consort Yu also wore a terribly ugly expression. Linghe was her niece by marriage after all, and she had just spoken up for Linghe. But Su Changyi, that damn rascal, turned out to have married into another family, making her lose face too!
With so many gossips in the harem, today’s incident would be her humiliation; everyone would surely say behind her back that she had an indecent niece who desperately tried to push herself into a marriage and couldn’t make it work!
When the Prince of Pingjun had asked the Emperor of Xiyun to bestow Linghe to Xiao Changyi, both Xiao Changyi and An Jing kept silent. It seed they had intentionally waited until now to speak, just to make her the butt of an even bigger joke!
Upon this thought, Imperial Consort Yu was so angry she almost bit through her teeth.
Curses on you, King of Eternal Victory… curses on you, Changsheng Princess… curses… well done, all of you…
Imperial Consort Yu was so enraged she wished she could eat the flesh of An Jing and Xiao Changyi, drink their blood, and gnaw their bones.
When had she ever been so humiliated! And in front of so many people too! Not just the ladies of the harem, but also princes, nobles, and even civil and military officials. She was beside herself with anger!
