Chapter 52 - Taking Pleasure in Your Misfortune
A group of them walked out. Xiao Tianyi, who was behind the group, looked at Yun Qianyu worriedly.
My ninth imperial uncle must have come here to cancel the marriage.
With her face mutilated and my uncle’s canceling of the marriage, it will be very hard for her to marry someone in the future.
Xiao Tianyi thought about how he had caused all this, and he felt even guiltier. He began to seriously think about what to do after his ninth imperial uncle had canceled the marriage.
He thought that he would ask the emperor to award Yun Qianyu as his consort.
Although she had been demoted from his princess consort to consort, he would treat her well in the future and let her live in his palace without any worries.
After Xiao Tianyi thought about it, he was relieved. He followed Yun Lei all the way outside.
In the main hall that entertained guests.
Xiao Jiuyuan was in a dark purple embroidered dragon brocade robe. His long black hair was tied with a purple jade belt. The simple, yet heavy colors made his facial features even more delicate. His phoenix eyes were astonishing, and his pupils were dazzling.
But, the man was surrounded by a strong aura of grumpiness, making everyone fearful of him.
As soon as Xiao Tianyi entered the main hall, he took the lead in paying his respects to Xiao Jiuyuan.
“I humbly acknowledge you, ninth imperial uncle.”
Xiao Jiuyuan looked at Xiao Tianyi, only raising his eyebrow and nodded as a sign of greeting.
The action showed how arrogant Xiao Jiuyuan was.
Xiao Tianyi, however, had been used to it for a long time. His face remained unchanged, and he quickly stepped back.
At this time, An Prince, heir apparent, Xiao Yechen beside Xiao Jiuyuan, stood up listlessly and went to Xiao Tianyi.
“I humbly acknowledge you, Xuan King.”
Xiao Tianyi looked at Xiao Yechen and asked, “Why are you here?”
Xiao Yechen glanced angrily at Xiao Jiuyuan and then gave Xiao Tianyi a look, you know what’s going on.
Naturally, Xiao Tianyi understood that his ninth imperial uncle was too lazy to come here alone, so he got Xiao Yechen to come over as well.
Xiao Yechen did not sleep much yesterday. Unexpectedly, Xiao Jiuyuan asked him to come along, so he was really tired.
He didn’t expect that Xiao Jiuyuan would actually come to the Eternal Peace residence. Previously, he didn’t agree to Yun Qianyu’s request of coming here.
Of course, Xiao Yechen did not believe that Xiao Jiuyuan would suddenly like Yun Qianyu or pity her. He probably only wanted to catch the real mastermind as soon as possible.
Xiao Yechen looked at Yun Qianyu and saw Yun Qianyu looking at him. He winked at her and then quickly looked away.
No one saw what he did, except for Xiao Jiuyuan. Xiao Jiuyuan was slightly displeased and turned to look at Yun Lei and Yun Qianyu.
He knew last night that Yun Qianyu’s face was ugly. However, now in the daytime, her face seemed even more ugly.
Xiao Jiuyuan frowned subconsciously. He could not accept such a fiancee. Even if she was a fake, he could not accept what he saw. He felt as though his eyes were poisoned.
As the Prince of Dong Li Kingdom, Xiao Jiuyuan used the best things and ate the best food; even the people around him were beautiful. Now he suddenly had Yun Qianyu, an ugly looking person. He recalled the fact that he had allowed this woman to be his chess piece last night and became displeased. In the end, he stopped looking at Yun Qianyu and looked at Yun Lei.
Yun Lei took note of Xiao Jiuyuan’s actions. At this time, he couldn’t help being ecstatic. Hahaha, it seems that I guessed right. Li Prince’s goal today is to cancel Yun Qianyu’s marriage.
Yun Qianyu, let’s see how arrogant you are after this.
