Liu Jun returned to the palace. When he was about to go to his palace, a maid ca and inford him that her birth mother, Noble Consort Furen asked for his presence.
Liu Jun went to Noble Consort Furen’s palace. When he arrived there, Noble Consort Furen was trimming the flowers.
"Mother." Liu Jun greeted his birth mother.
"Oh, you are here." Noble Consort Furen smiled.
"Mother, why are you looking for ?" Liu Jun asked.
"Have you gone and visited your fiance?" Noble Consort Furen.
Liu Jun was smiling when he heard the question. He wanted to answer but he suddenly rembered that Bai Xifeng was no longer his fiance.
"What? You have not visited her?" Noble Consort Furen asked.
"Mother, I no longer have a fiance. Don’t you rember that?" Liu Jun asked back.
"What? Don’t you already have a new fiance? The second young miss of the Bai Family, Bai Chunhua?" Noble Consort Furen was confused.
"What? When did that happen?" Liu Jun was surprised.
"On the day of the royal banquet, did you rember? Bai Chunhua is the one who wins the match. So, she is the fiance." Noble Consort Furen said.
"What? It is still going on? But she was injured by Bai Xifeng." Liu Jun was reluctant to accept the engagent with Bai Chunhua.
"Indeed. But Bai Xifeng was already engaged to the third prince. So, Bai Chunhua is your fiance." Noble Consort Furen said.
Her eyes were on the flowers. So, she did not notice the expression on Liu Jun’s face.
"We need to send the Bai Family the engagent gift. We can not avoid that." Noble Consort Furen said.
However, she received no response from her son. Only then, did she turn to look at Liu Jun. She saw Liu Jun’s complicated look.
"Crown prince... Crown prince... Liu Jun!" Noble Consort Furen called her son several tis but he did not respond. Only after she called him with his real na, did he respond.
"Yes, Mother?" Liu Jun realised that Noble Consort Furen called him.
"Why are you acting like this?" Noble Consort Furen asked.
"Mother, I do not want to get married to Bai Chunhua anymore." Liu Jun expressed his feelings.
"Why?" Noble Consort Furen asked, however, she felt she already knew the answer.
"I... " Liu Jun hesitated to tell his birth mother. But he thought that his birth mother could help him regarding this matter. "I want to get married to soone else."
"Who?" Noble Consort Furen asked.
"Bai Xifeng." Liu Jun stated.
Noble Consort Furen had a long sigh. She knew this coming. She saw Bai Xifeng and thought that the girl was indeed beautiful.
When she first saw Bai Xifeng, she was confused as to why her son always told her that Bai Xifeng was ugly. After seeing Bai Xifeng, she thought her son just wanted to make an excuse to cover his disgusted feelings for Bai Xifeng because the girl was not a cultivator before.
"Crown prince, I don’t think your imperial father would agree that. And rember Bai Xifeng is already engaged to the third prince." Noble Consort Furen reminded Liu Jun.
"Mother, you don’t need to work about that. I will try to convince imperial father." Liu Jun said.
"If that is your choice, fine." Noble Consort Furen gave up. "You can leave now." She waved her right hand to Liu Jun.
Liu Jun paid his respect before leaving Noble Consort Furen.
Seeing her son walking away, she could not stop sighing. What she was thinking before the night of the royal banquet earlier beca a reality.
Liu Jun did regret breaking off the engagent with Bai Xifeng. She thought it would not be easy for Liu Jun to get engaged again to Bai Xifeng. Even with the help of His Majesty.
What she could conclude from Bai Xifeng’s attitude, Bai Xifeng was a prideful person. She would not get back to the man who threw her once. Bai Xifeng did not care much about what people thought about her.
Liu Jun walked to his imperial father’s office. It seed his imperial father was in a eting with the pri minister, Miao An Gang and Imperial Secretary, Qian Zemin.
Liu Jun did not want to disturb them. So, he waited around first. Half an hour later, Miao An Gang and Qian Zemin got out of the office.
Qian Zemin saw Liu Jun imdiately smile at him. Qian Zemin was Liu Jun’s maternal grandfather and Noble Consort Furen was Qian Zemin’s daughter.
"Sir Miao, Sir Qian." Liu Jun greeted them.
Miao An Gang just nodded while Qian Zemin passionately greeted Liu Jun back.
"Oh, Your Highness!" Qian Zemin patted Liu Jun’s shoulder.
"Are you coming to see His Majesty?" Miao An Gang asked.
"Yes, there is sothing that I need to discuss with His Majesty." Liu Jun stated.
"Is that so? Then, you can go and et with His Majesty." Qian Zemin stated.
Then Miao An Gang and Qian Zemin left. The eunuch announced Liu Jun’s arrival to His Majesty.
After getting permission from His Majesty to enter the office, Liu Jun walked inside. He saw his imperial father was working on sothing.
"Imperial Father." Liu Jun greeted Liu Man by kneeling.
"You may rise." Liu Man said.
Liu Jun stood up.
"Why do you want to see ?" Liu Man asked his son.
"Imperial father, it is about my engagent." Liu Jun stated.
"Oh, yeah. About that, I will ask soone to prepare the engagent gift to the Bai Family, then, you will be officially engaged to the second young miss from the Bai Family." Liu Man said.
"No, Imperial father. That is not what I am going to talk to you about." Liu Jun shook his head.
"Huh? Then, what are you wanting to talk with about?" Liu Man asked.
"Imperial father, I want to be engaged to Bai Xifeng again." Liu Jun stated.
"What?" Liu Man was displeased to hear that. "You want Bai Xifeng to be your fiance again?"
Liu Jun was a bit scared when he saw his imperial father’s reaction when he brought this matter up. However, he needed to be brave to face his imperial father.
"Yes, Imperial Father." Liu Jun nodded.
"Are you joking right now? Last ti, you wanted to break up the engagent with her and now, you want her to be your fiance again?" Liu Man said.
Liu Man was indeed quite angry about this matter. He wrote the royal decree to Bai Xifeng breaking off the engagent. And now, he wanted Bai Xifeng back? Did he think the royal decree was sothing that could push and pull?
"Imperial father, I know you are angry about this. But you need to think more about this matter." Liu Jun said.
Liu Man wanted to hear what Liu Jun wanted to say. "What?"
"Imperial Father, Bai Xifeng could cultivate out of sudden. There must be sothing behind this." Liu Jun said.
"She already told us that soone was coming and treated her." Liu Man stated.
"Indeed. Soone like that must be powerful. We need soone like that in our empire." Liu Jun said.
"But Bai Xifeng told us that she did not know who he was and where he went." Liu Man said.
"Imperial Father, I don’t believe that Bai Xifeng did not know that person. Even though she did not know much about that person, she must know sothing about him. I will make Bai Xifeng believe in and make her tell everything about that person." Liu Jun gave his opinion.
Liu Man was silent. He was thinking about his son’s words. Indeed, having soone powerful in his empire would help a lot. The neighbouring countries would not dare to ss with his empire.
However, Liu Man had his concerns. He just wrote the royal decree for Bai Xifeng. He could not just write another one asking the sa thing, breaking up her engagent with his third son.
People would question his dignity. It would give a bad impression on the royal family. He could not let that happen.
"Crown prince, it would not be good to the royal family if the royal family break off her engagent again." Liu Man sighed.
"What if she break off the engagent by herself? Is that count?" Liu Jun smiled.
"What do you an by that, Crown Prince?" Liu Man looked at Liu Jun.
