Tearing the Prince's Clothes after Withdrawing Marriage Chapter 1018 - 1017: The Granting of a Marriage
Early in the morning, Feng Wuya, holding an Imperial Decree and with fury in his stride, pushed open the door to Long Xinghe’s room.
The room was silent and still, the bedding perfectly tidy, as if no one had rested there at all the night before.
"Prince, the master is not here today," Jiang Tao hurried over from outside.
Seeing the Imperial Decree in Feng Wuya’s hands, she seed to understand sothing.
She said with a smile, "The master should still be in the palace at this ti, the Emperor had called the master for a talk, and the master entered the palace last night."
"What does she an by this?" Feng Wuya almost slamd the Imperial Decree into Jiang Tao’s face.
However, Jiang Tao seed to have anticipated his reaction, so her face remained calm and composed.
"Prince, it ans exactly what it says," she stated blandly.
Feng Wuya’s usual composure, no, rather his indifference, dissipated the mont he saw the Imperial Decree.
"Where is Long Xinghe?" he nearly growled through clenched teeth.
Even Jiang Tao was astonished, struck by the liveliness of this Prince Xiaoyao before her.
So the Prince had such a side to him.
Actually, it was quite adorable.
She suppressed her urge to laugh, making an effort to appear calm, "Prince, didn’t I already ntion? The master entered the palace to see the Emperor last night and should still be there."
Feng Wuya turned and left, no longer wishing to waste another word on her.
Jiang Tao watched his retreating figure and sighed quietly to herself.
The master has really angered the Prince this ti, and it seems he’s quite incensed.
Indeed, what’s common practice in Longteng Country seems... quite peculiar in Beiming Country...
...
Feng Wuya had every right to be enraged.
What exactly was written on that Imperial Decree?
The appointed Prince of Dingbei of Longteng Country, which is Long Xinghe... Strangely enough, this ti the Beiming Emperor recognizes it.
That is to say, it’s the current Empress Long Ziyue who bestowed the title.
Just two days ago, Wei Qiong and Tan Xu had co together to apprehend Chu Qianli, and with Long Xinghe as Chu Qianli’s "accomplice," at this point, she ought to be captured or branded a criminal at the least.
But now, in a complete turnaround, one becos Prince Li and the other legitimately uses the title of Prince of Dingbei.
The Beiming Emperor is not a fool; without an official docunt, he shouldn’t be trusting such titles.
Could it be that Ali has pulled so trick?
But none of that is the main point right now. The main thing is that the Imperial Decree states that the Prince of Dingbei has requested the hand of Beiming’s Prince Xiaoyao, and the Emperor has already agreed.
Now an Imperial Decree has been issued, bestowing the marriage: in three days’ ti, Prince Xiaoyao is to marry far away in Longteng Country’s Tengbei!
He, a towering man, is to be married off!
Marriage! For a man, it is an utter and ludicrous disgrace!
In the Imperial Palace.
The Emperor and Long Xinghe had spoken at length almost all night, with Eunuch Qing listening by.
He hadn’t expected the won of Longteng Country to be so exceptional.
Chu Qianli was tactically superior, wise and composed.
This appointed Prince of Dingbei, while not as tactically adept as Chu Qianli, had quite so insight regarding military strategy.
Many of her thoughts hadn’t even crossed the Emperor’s mind.
The Emperor greatly admired her.
So when Long Xinghe brought up the matter of marrying Prince Xiaoyao again midway through the conversation, the Emperor didn’t hesitate and imdiately had Eunuch Qing draft the Imperial Decree.
It was for this reason that the Imperial Decree reached Feng Wuya’s hands as soon as day broke.
As for the Emperor, even though reluctant, he eventually went to rest before dawn, his body unable to keep up.
After resting for a while, Long Xinghe, accompanied by Eunuch Qing, was just about to leave the palace.
Just as they stepped out of the palace gate, that figure clad in plain white approached from the opposite direction.
