Chapter 94

Luckily, the Empress dowager did care about her youngest son . She arrived before Princess Zhao Yang did . That was partly because Prince Li's Manor was closest to the palace among all those manors owned by princes .

The Empress dowager charged in angrily in a bright yellow dress embroidered with phoenix and said: “I’ve heard from you that something went wrong before I left the palace . What on earth happened on such a good day? Wasn't your last wedding embarra.s.sing enough?”

Ye Ying’s face turned pale but she didn’t dare to contradict the Empress dowager directly so she hid herself in the corner and remained silent .

Those in the room all rose to greet the Empress dowager . She sat down and heard all of it from the elder prince and Consort Xian Zhao . Before the two even finished, the Empress dowager flared up and reproached Mo Jing Li bitterly . Those in the room didn’t dare to interrupt when the Empress dowager scolded her son . They had no choice but to listen to her . Several n.o.ble ladies who had nothing to do with what happened wanted to cover their ears so badly that they swore they were never going to step into Prince Li's Manor again .

When the Empress dowager finally vented her spleen, Mo Jing Li and Princess Qi Xia were already on their knees, begging her for forgiveness .

The Empress dowager looked at Mo Jing Li for a good while before she became milder . She sighed and told the elder prince: “Brother, what do you think about it?”

The elder prince stroked his beard and said: “Your Majesty, since you are here, we’ll all follow your guides . ”

The Empress dowager sighed a little sadly: “What happened . . . does disgrace His Majesty . I’m afraid even with my plead it won't quell His Majesty’s fury . ”

The elder prince certainly knew what she meant by that . “Come to think of it, what Jing Li had done was disgraceful but it was partly because of our neglect as uncles . Later, I’ll go to the palace and plead for him together with my brother . I only wish that His Majesty would show me this respect . ”

The Empress dowager laughed gratefully: “Brother, you are His Majesty's most respected uncle . His Majesty will definitely show you due respect . Li-er, come over and thank your uncle . ”

Advertis.e.m.e.nt

Mo Jing Li said with a deep voice: “Thank you, uncle . ”

The elder prince snorted and didn’t answer him .

Having got the elder prince's promise, the Empress dowager was more than happy . Though the elder prince didn't attend to affairs of the state any longer, he was very influential among the royals . As long as he was willing to plead, most princes would oblige . Even if His Highness was in rage, he couldn't sanction a severe punishment .

Consort Xian Zhao was very happy, too . Looking at Mo Jing Li and Princess Qi Xia, she asked softly: “Sister, what shall we do with Princess Qi Xia . . . ”

The Empress dowager frowned and said: “I will talk to His Majesty and let her marry Jing Li some other time . ” The Empress dowager didn’t hide that from those n.o.ble ladies . Princess Qi Xia was special . Unless she didn’t see anyone else for the rest of her life, that arrangement about her would spread out sooner or later . Now that the Empress dowager had spoken of that loud and clear, those present were clever enough to tell what to and what not to speak of .

“I don’t agree with that!”

“I don’t either!”

Two female voices went up both inside and outside the hall which stunned the crowd .

The voice inside the hall naturally came from Ye Ying, who looked pale as if she could fall at any moment .

Outside the hall, Princess Ling Yun was in a red dress, fiercely charming as the fire . The bright red kerchief was raised while she didn’t take it off, her almond-shaped eyes bursting with fire . She stood by the door and stared at the crowd inside with her chin lifted . “I don’t agree with that . Don’t even think about humiliate me in such a way . ”

Beside Princess Ling Yun was Lei Teng Feng who glanced across the hall before he said coldly: “Your Majesty, does Dong Chu have to push us so hard?”

Hardly had one wave subsided when another rose .

Before anyone spoke, Princess Ling Yun strode into the hall and stopped by Mo Jing Li and Princess Qi Xia’s side . She slapped Princess Qi Xia quick and hard on the face with everybody watching . “b.i.t.c.h!”

Half of Princess Qi Xia's went red immediately and a trace of blood dripped from the corner of her mouth .

It seemed that one slap wasn’t enough to let off her anger, Princess Ling Yun raised her hand and wanted to slap her again when her arm was grabbed by Mo Jing Li . “Didn’t you have enough?”

Princess Ling Yun laughed scornfully . She got rid of Mo Jing Li’s hand and sneered: “No matter what a scene I’m going to make is nothing compared to a shameless woman who seduced the bridegroom at another woman's wedding . How come such a b.i.t.c.h is a princess? That's a disgrace to all princesses . I’ve heard you started to pester Prince Li a long time ago, don't you? It’s none of my business who you hook up with before . But that you dare to do that at my wedding is a provocation to me . ”

The Empress dowager frowned and said in a deep voice: “Princess Ling Yun, Prince Li and Princess Qi Xia are set up . If you aren’t happy about what happened, I’ll ask him to apologize to you afterwards . Don't act like a child in front of all those princes and ladies . ”

Princess Ling Yun sneered . She took of her red kerchief and threw it on the ground . “Apologize? No way I’m going to take that! I’m not marrying him . Do whatever you like . If that b.i.t.c.h is here, then I won’t be here!”

Consort Xian Zhao said: “Then, what do you want, princess?”

Princess Ling Yun said proudly: “Let Prince Li kill that b.i.t.c.h himself . Then I’ll act like nothing has happened . ”

“What?!” The crowd was so surprised .

Mo Jing Li took Princess Qi Xia behind him and stared at Princess Ling Yun: “You are out of your mind . She's the princess of Nan Zhao . ”

“So what? I’m the princess of Xi Ling . I’m not afraid of that little country . ” Princess Ling Yun said with her brows raised .

Lei Teng Feng looked at the crowd with a cold stare and said: “Ling Yun is right . Dong Chu hasn't taken Great Ling seriously . Well, I don't think this wedding is necessary to carry on . Prince Li, what do you think?”

Mo Jing Li was silent .

Princess Ling Yun sneered: “Brother, you’ve seen it now, haven't you? They have turned their nose up at us . ”

Lei Teng Feng looked at Princess Ling Yun indifferently and said: “Get your things . Let’s go . I’ll go the palace and bid farewell . We’ll leave for Xi Ling soon . ”

“Yes . ” Princess Ling Yun glanced at Princess Qi Xia and Mo Jing Li with disdain . There was no shame in her eyes due to her failed wedding . On the contrary, she looked very happy .

“My Lord, this can be settled through discussion . It's about the relations.h.i.+p between our countries . Please don’t be swayed by personal feelings . ” The elder prince sighed . He stood up and offered his advice .

Lei Teng Feng said indifferently: “Your Highness, thank you for your kindness . But this time Dong Chu has push too far . It isn’t us who broke the protocol first . I believe we have justification even in front of the emperor of Dong Chu . Prince Ding, Princess Ding, please uphold justice for us . Don’t you think I’m right?”

Ye Li hated Lei Teng Feng for bringing them into this . She smiled a little reserved in front of all those eyes and said: “My Lord, Prince Li and Princess Qi Xia were indeed not appropriate in doing that but there were a lot of questions among it all . More importantly, it was a total incident . Please trust our good faith toward your country . I believe you know that well, My Lord . ” Didn’t you bring Princess Ling Yun here to form an alliance through marriage? I don’t think you want to take her back with you .

The elder prince looked at Ye Li with praise and smiled: “Princess Ding is right . What Prince Li has wronged Princess Ling Yun, we’ll try our best to make it up to her . It's not right if the friends.h.i.+p between our countries is affected by this . Please think about it, My Lord . ”

Seeing the pensive look on Lei Teng Feng's face, Princess Ling Yun frowned and said hastily: “Brother!”

Lei Teng Feng glanced at her indifferently and looked at the Empress dowager: “Ling Yun is my uncle’s favorite daughter . n.o.body dares to give her a hard time back home . I wonder how Dong Chu will make it up to her?”

Princess Ling Yun was a bit shocked and disappointment crept upon her face but she didn’t dare to say anything under Lei Teng Feng's cold gaze .

The Empress dowager said in a deep voice: “What do you want, My Lord?”

Lei Teng Feng’s eyes brightened . He said out loud: “The legitimate heir of Prince Li must be Ling Yun's son . More importantly, Princess Qi Xia can’t have any t.i.tle higher than a concubine or the t.i.tle of concubine itself and she shall not bear him any child . ”
