Married To The Cruel Crown Prince Chapter 250 - Loyal To Her

Chapter 250 - Loyal To Her

"Prince Qifeng, this is the private room for us, seven brothers, though hardly anyone could be seen here," Lei Wanxi told Lu Qifeng while fanning himself.

"May I ask the reason, why is it so?" Lu Qifeng asked.

"All brothers are busy, that's why," replied Lei Wanxi. He pulled out a chair for Lu Qifeng and gestured to him to take the seat. Lu Qifeng thanked Lei Wanxi who had taken a seat beside him.

"Sister Jing will soon leave the Palace. She's not allowed to meet you until her marriage," stated Lei Wanxi.

"Prince Wanxi, I will keep Miss Jing happy and safe," Lu Qifeng a.s.sured Lei Wanxi, who closed the fan and placed that on the table.

"I know that Prince Qifeng will take care of Sister Jing well," a.s.serted Lei Wanxi.

"Prince Wanxi, I might sound a little rude, but I want to say something," Lu Qifeng asked for permission.

"Prince Qifeng does not need to ask for permission," Lei Wanxi affirmed.

Lu Qifeng nodded. "The Crown Princess was not used to such an environment. I mean she is a free bird." Lei Wanxi amusingly looked at Lu Qifeng who paused as he felt a little awkward to continue.

"Is Prince Qifeng trying to ask why Sister Lili adjusted well with the Crown Prince?" Lei Wanxi questioned. "Brother Sheng is popular among all the people of Han. As you know that their marriage was an alliance, Brother Sheng would have created plunder there. Thanks to our father those two are tied into this marriage. Prince Qifeng, it is an irony that the Crown Prince is cold to all the people except the Crown Princess. I know many won't believe this but this is the truth.

The Crown Prince admires Sister Lili not because she is beautiful but because, unlike the other women, she is intelligent, and has an interest in warfare and politics." Lei Wanxi explained to Lu Qifeng.

"Ahh, that's why she rejected my proposal," Lu Qifeng muttered.

"Pardon me! You had sent the marriage proposal to Sister Lili? Wait, are you the Prince who proposed to Sister Lili when you two were teenagers?" Lei Wanxi astonis.h.i.+ngly asked.

"How does the Sixth Prince know about this? Did the Crown Princess tell this?" Lu Qifeng queried.

"No! Hu Jingguo had told me," Lei Wanxi replied, keeping a tiny smile on his lips.

Lu Qifeng nodded. "The Crown Princess defeated me in the archery game. And being a naïve child, I commented on how a woman could defeat me! Generally, women aren't supposed to learn such things. I was infatuated with her because of her beauty and ended up proposing to the Crown Princess. That was a naïve, teenage child inside me. The Crown Princess simply refused my proposal. I asked for the reason, but she never told me," Lu Qifeng proclaimed.

Lei Wanxi smiled upon hearing that. "Yes, Hu Jingguo told me that the Crown Princess does not like when someone restricts her. By fate, Brother Sheng's qualities matched with Sister Lili's choices. That's why she is well adjusted in the Palace because Brother Sheng respects her more than anyone and listens to her. You might have heard that Brother Sheng does not even glance at women, but it is different with Sister Lili," Lei Wanxi a.s.serted.

Xi Jiao, who was standing outside the room, heard their conversation. 'So, it is the way I can seduce the Crown Prince,' she thought.

Oppositely, Lei Wanxi had seen her and smirked. 'Poor soul has fallen into my trap. I hope Brother Sheng will not take away your life,' Lei Wanxi thought in his mind. Indeed, it was a plan devised by Lei Wanxi. He wanted her to get close to Sheng Li so that they could find the person who ordered her to roam around Sheng Li.

"Prince Qifeng, you shall go to your chamber and take a rest," Lei Wanxi stated. Lu Qifeng nodded in agreement and stood up from the chair.

"It was a nice conversation with Prince Wanxi," Lu Qifeng and left the room.

Lei Wanxi opened his fan and started fanning himself. "I am so smart! Brother Sheng is going to praise me," Lei Wanxi thought when he heard the footsteps. He looked towards the door and saw Sheng Li there.

"Brother," Lei Wanxi stood up from the chair.

"Wanxi, finally I found you. Help me!" Sheng Li requested.

Lei Wanxi was perplexed to hear that. "What happened, Brother Sheng?" Lei Wanxi saw the frowns on Sheng Li's forehead.

"Lili is angry at me. She even cried. I made a mistake," Sheng Li said and heaved a sigh.

"Brother, what did you do this time?" Lei Wanxi asked and went towards the door. Looking outside, he shut the door from inside and came back towards Sheng Li who narrated the entire incident to him.

"Brother, how could you say such a thing to Sister Lili? You know how much she loves you and you doubted her! I am also angry at Brother Sheng," Lei Wanxi scolded Sheng Li.

"I know I did wrong. It was a slip of the tongue," Sheng Li a.s.serted.

"Don't make excuses, Brother," stated Lei Wanxi.

"She told me to prove that my love is loyal to her. Until then, she will not see me," Sheng Li proclaimed. "What shall I do? Because of me, she could not have her lunch," Sheng Li worriedly said.

"Brother, why don't you prepare something for Sister Lili… like giving her a surprise! She might like that," Lei Wanxi suggested an idea to Sheng Li.

"She will not like that. She will get angrier," Sheng Li was dejected. He sat on the chair and closed his eyes.

"Brother, what will you do then? Sister Lili must be crying in her chamber!" Lei Wanxi was anxious.

Sheng Li slammed his hand on the wooden table and stood up. "I know what I need to do! I know how to calm my Wildcat," Sheng Li murmured.

"What is Brother Sheng trying to do?" Lei Wanxi curiously asked. Sheng Li turned to him.

"You do not need to know," Sheng Li said and left the room.
