Chapter 149 (Part 1) Shameless couple

Compared to Yun Xi’s no sense of shame, Ming Yue Cheng just let people sent some specialties of Nan Feng for Murong Qi Qi. However, he knew that there were differences between men and women. If he met Murong Qi Qi in private, it would be bad for Murong Qi Qi’s reputation. So, he had been enduring and waited till the palace banquet.

Since, the time Xia Yun Xi was humiliated by Wanyan Kang at Long Autumn palace, she gave up on Murong Qi Qi, this shortcut. From Xia Yun Xi’s point of view, Murong Qi Qi and Wanyan Kang’s relations.h.i.+p was so great, they must be the jackals of the same tribe. She needed to rely on herself for her happiness.

So, every day after that, Xia Yun Xi got up early and waited for Feng Cang to return from the morning court. She intended to have a sweet encounter with him. However, she waited for four or five days and only got Ji Xiang and Ruyi, this pair of siblings’ mocking smile.

Inside the capital, the rumors were that Dong Lu’s princess pursued relentlessly, forcing Nan Lin w.a.n.g 1 to have no way out; resulting in that he was unable to return to Nan Lin w.a.n.gfu2 and could only stay at fifth prince’s residence.

More busybodies dug out Xia Yun Xi’s consort mother’s ident.i.ty. Her consort mother was originally an orphan unintentionally saved by Dong Lu’s empress. Later, while the empress was pregnant, she climbed on the dragon bed. Because of her skills and charms, she became Xia Jin’s favorite consort. Since then, she never put the empress in her eyes…

All kinds of rumors and the fact that Feng Cang hid at Wanyan Kang’s was put in front of their eyes, making the citizens of the capital thoroughly understand this Dong Lu’s princess. Thinking about before at White Cloud Restaurant, so many people witnessed Xia Yun Xi’s shamelessness, making people couldn’t help but sigh. Really what kind of seeds would make what kind of flowers! The mother is not a good thing, how can the daughter be a person of good character?!

“b.a.s.t.a.r.d! b.a.s.t.a.r.d!” Xia Yun Xi smashed the things in the room. “If I catch the person who spread the rumors, I will definitely kill him and execute his nine generations! Execute his nine generation!”

“Princess, don’t get angry and make your body unwell!” Hong Ye saw Xia Yun Xi like that, she immediately reminded her. Here is Nan Lin w.a.n.gfu. All the things beings smashed were Feng Cang’s.

After Hong Ye mentioned Feng Cang, Xia Yun Xi also got angry. No wonder she didn’t see him at w.a.n.gfu. It turned out, he run to live at Wanyan Kang’s. It was definitely Wanyan Kang who said something in front of Feng Cang. That was why, he avoided her like avoiding a plague. No wonder, even if she kept watch day and night, she didn’t even see a shadow. It turned out that he went into hiding at Wanyan Kang’s! Could it be that she’s severe floods and fierce beasts?

Thinking of these, Xia Yun Xi’s tears couldn’t help but fall.

Before coming here, Xia Jin didn’t want Xia Yun Xi to come. He personally wrote a doc.u.ment to set her and Feng Cang’s marriage through Wanyan Lie. Xia Yun Xi only needed to wait for the day of marriage. However, Xia Yun Xi rejected Xia Jin’s suggestion on spot.

Firstly, it was because she didn’t see Feng Cang for ten years. Finally, she became an adult. Xia Yun Xi wanted to see Feng Cang immediately. Secondly, inside Xia Yun Xi’s heart, there was a small pride. She didn’t want to use Xia Jin’s relation to force Feng Cang to marry her under pressure. She was confident in herself. Xia Yun Xi wanted to use her own efforts to let Feng Cang fall in love with her and marry her willingly.

However, Xia Yun Xi never thought that the difference between a dream and the reality would be so big.

No matter how intoxicated and immersed in the beautiful fantasies she was, the reality was like a slap in her face, mercilessly slapping her and making her got a nosebleed. No need to mention, fooling around with Feng Cang. She came for so long, she didn’t even see Feng Cang’s face. How can she fool around? Even if she wanted to **, she didn’t have partner, ah!

Although, she begged Wanyan Lie and entered the w.a.n.gfu as she wished, but Feng Cang avoided her like avoiding a plague. She advanced, he retreated. She chased, he avoided. There was no intersection, let alone, having the time to seize Feng Cang’s heart.

Xia Yun Xi began to become a bit aware that Feng Cang didn’t like her. Although, she also wanted it to be Wanyan Kang who played dirty tricks in front of Feng Cang and use this excuse to comfort herself on why Feng Cang alienated him from her, but the truth was placed in front of her. She wasn’t a fool.

“Hong Ye, what to do? Feng Cang doesn’t like me!” Xia Yun Xi’s tears were like pearls and coacervated at the corners of her eyes. She didn’t know what she did wrong. She only fell in love with Feng Cang and wanted to be his bride.

He didn’t marry, she didn’t marry; Wasn’t this the perfect thing?! Why did Feng Cang use such ways to reject her? Could it be that she’s not good enough?!

Xia Yun Xi cried. Hong Ye also got anxious. After thinking for a good moment, Hong Ye moved closer to Xia Yun Xi, “Princess, this slave has a plan. This slave just doesn’t know if princess is willing to do so…”

“What kind of plan?” The moment she heard that Hong Ye had a plan, Xia Yun Xi quickly looked at her, “As long as I can make my wish come true, I am be willing to do anything!”

“Princess, why don’t you pretend to be sick?! If the imperial physician came, you argue noisily that you have a headache and then you on the point of death and want to see Nan Lin w.a.n.g once…,” While saying this, Hong Ye also felt that this plan was a bit too dramatic. She quickly added, “This slave doesn’t have the meaning of cursing you!”

Xia Yun Xi was now giving medicine to a dead horse. Regardless of what she needed to do, as long as it could let Feng Cang come see her, she was willing to try. After thinking for a moment about this move Hong Ye proposed, she immediately nodded.

“Hong Ye, go into the palace to see your majesty. Say, I’m about to die…,” Xia Yun Xi whispered a few words in Hong Ye’s ear. Hong Ye quickly nodded. After Xia Yun Xi prepared everything, Hong Ye hurried to the palace.

The moment, he heard that Dong Lu’s princess was about to die at Nan Lin w.a.n.gfu, Wanyan Lie was startled, “What happened? What’s the matter with princess?”

Wanyan Lie was worried and fell into Hong Ye’ trap. Before coming, she mercilessly pinched her legs twice and squeezed out tears. Now, that just came in handy, “This slave also doesn’t know. In the morning, princess was well. This slave doesn’t know why, in the afternoon, she felt pain in her chest and now she fainted!”

Naturally, Wanyan Lie didn’t want Xia Yun Xi to die at Bei Zhou. He immediately sent the imperial physician to Nan Lin w.a.n.gfu. He also followed them.

Inside Guanyu building’s quarter, Xia Yun Xi was very pale-faced and her lips were so scary red. “Your majesty, am, am I about to die?”

While talking, tears fell out. Hong Ye went forward to wipe them for her. Her mouth had been crying, “Princess, you won’t die! Your majesty would definitely let people cure you!”

Originally, Wanyan Lie really thought that something happened to Xia Yun Xi. Now, seeing her appearance, Wanyan Lie knew she was pretending to be sick. Being lied to was not a very good feeling, but Wanyan Lie didn’t say anything. He still continued to comfort her and let the imperial physician give Xia Yun Xia diagnosis.

The old imperial physician put his hand across a gold muslin on Xia Yun Xi’s left hand. He closed his eyes, paused for a long moment and also changed hands. Then, he stood up.

“Answering emperor, princess is not acclimatized!”

The old imperial physician’s words almost let Wanyan Lie laugh out loudly. This old guy, he stayed in the imperial hospital for too long. He knew how to a.s.sess the situation. Presumable, he also saw that nothing was wrong with Xia Yun Xi, but he couldn’t unmask her lie. He had to make up such an ‘illness’!

“Not acclimatized?” Xia Yun Xi wasn’t satisfied with this answer. She immediately began to shout, “Aiyo.” “My head hurts so much. My chest also hurts badly! I certainly wouldn’t be endured for much longer.”

Xia Yun Xi was clearly acting shamelessly, but Wanyan Lei also had no way out. He also heard about the recent rumors. Outsiders were rumoring that Feng Cang lived at Wanyan Kang’s. Only he knew, Feng Cang sneaked every night into Long Autumn palace.

Now, Xia Yun Xi was pretending to be sick like this, was for nothing more than wanting to force Feng Cang to appear. This la.s.s wanted to trick him, but she was still inexperienced.

“Feng Cang’s Jin Mo’s medical skills are high. Zhen 3 wants to let him come check princess!”

When she heard that it was just letting Jin Mo come and Feng Cang won’t come, Xia Yun Xi shouted louder. Her hand clutched her chest and pretended like she couldn’t breathe. She was being like this let the disgust Wanyan Lie had for her become stronger.

“Is not that princess got lovesickness, right?!”

Just one sentence pointed out Xia Yun Xi’s thoughts. Hearing Wanyan Lie say that, Xia Yun Xi’s face immediately got red. Now, her chest and head didn’t ache. She lifted the quilt and came out of bed. She knelt in front of Wanyan Lie.

“Since your majesty already knows, I won’t hide it from your majesty anymore…,” She didn’t even say two sentences, when Xia Yun Xi began to cry. Wanyan Lie looked at her tears. He frowned even more.

Xia Yun Xi rambled a lot. It was nothing more than how she liked Feng Cang and that aside from Feng Cang, she wouldn’t fall in love with another person. If she couldn’t become Feng Cang’s bride, she would rather become a nun!

Xia Yun Xi cried and throw a tantrum. However, she forgot that these tricks of women would only be effective when using it in front of the man who loves them. Putting it on another person, no one would give you face.

“Zhen understands princess’s meaning. Princess likes Cang er4. It is his blessing. After two days, it would be the palace banquet. Princess could prepare very well! Zhen still needs to look over doc.u.ments. Zhen will go first.”

After leaving this sentence, Wanyan Lie left Guanyu building. Looking at Wanyan Lie’s leaving back, Xia Yun Xi was somewhat stupefied. What was this situation? According to common sense, Wanyan Lie should immediately sent a decree to get Feng Cang come to her. How could he just pat his b.u.t.t and leave?

“Prin, princess, now what should we do?” Hong Ye was also dumfounded. Originally, they thought that this approach would work. They didn’t expect that Bei Zhou’s emperor wouldn’t fall for this. Then what to do?

‘Pa, pa…’ Hong Ye just finished speaking, Xia Yun Xi gave her two slaps. “All was because of you and thought of such a silly idea! My face is completely lost! What could we do more? We could only wait till the palace banquet!”

Don’t know who spread out that Xia Yun Xi got lovesickness. For a time, Xia Yun Xi became the joke of the citizens of the capital. A country’s princess being so cheap was the first and the last.

Fortunately, Xia Yun Xi was at w.a.n.gfu and didn’t hear these rumors. Hong Ye also didn’t dare to let Xia Yun Xi know lest to let herself become Xia Yun Xi’s punching bag.

In a blink of an eye, the palace banquet arrived.

The cold winter had pa.s.sed. The spring was back on earth. All things recovered and everywhere was green. Yan capital was thriving.

Early in the morning, Xia Yun Xi woke up and let Hong Ye help her dress up. After thinking calmly this time, Xia Yun Xi finally understood Feng Cang’s meaning. He didn’t like to see her. No matter how petty and low she put herself, he wouldn’t give her any chance.

Xia Yun Xi couldn’t accept it. She felt that nothing was wrong with her. Why didn’t Feng Cang want to give her a chance? Could it be that there’s another person in Feng Cang’s heart? Or was it that he heard some rumors? In short, if she couldn’t see Feng Cang and find the reason, Xia Yun Xi wouldn’t give up. Let her give up on the man she loved for ten years, she wasn’t willing!

“Hong Ye, did you already prepare the things?” Xia Yun Xi faced the mirror and checked her make-up once again. She added one more brush to the eye, before she was satisfied.

“Princess, everything is ready!” Hong Ye handed a pearl hairpin and a thing wrapped in paper to Xia Yun Xi.

From the outside, there was nothing wrong with this pearl hairpin. Xia Yun Xi turned the pearl on the hairpin and took it out. It turned out that it was empty inside the hairpin. “Put the drug inside. Be more careful!”

“Yes!”

Hong Ye carefully opened the wrap. Inside it was a thick layer of white powder. She took a small brush and swept a bit into the hairpin. Then, she turned the pearl back in it’s place and put the hairpin in Xia Yun Xi’s hair.

“Princess, do you really want to do this…”

Hong Ye had a bad premonition. She felt that the approach of Xia Yun Xi by giving Feng Cang the drug was a dangerous thing. If by chance, they are found out, then what should they do? By then, to marry Feng Cang, Dong Lu’s princess drugged him would spread out. Could Xia Yun Xi then continue to live, ah?!

Xia Yun Xi didn’t take Hong Ye’s worry seriously. She went mad from Feng Cang continuous alienation and indifference! She couldn’t wait a moment more!

Before coming, Xia Yun Xi told everyone proudly at Dong Lu’s palace that she came to be Nan Lin w.a.n.gfei,5 to become Feng Cang’s w.a.n.gfei. If this time, she was rejected by Feng Cang and needed to go back dejectedly, by then wouldn’t she be made into a joke by those sn.o.bbish people? Xia Yun Xi didn’t want it to be like that!

Even if she knew that this was a risky and an approach out of desperation, but Xia Yun Xi still wanted to take the risk.

What thing you do in this world is not a gamble? She was gambling her happiness, gambling her future. What’s wrong with it?! Didn’t consort mother use this method and became emperor father’s pampered consort? Even if Feng Cang didn’t love her, it’s enough if she loves him. When she becomes Nan Lin w.a.n.gfei, she would definitely let Feng Cang fall in love with her.

With the determination to win, Xia Yun Xi went into the palace. she came early. Although many officials came with their wife to the location, but the major characters didn’t arrive yet. Some maids led Xia Yun Xi to Taiji hall. However, she felt very bored. She didn’t want to sit there and just wait. She walked around.

After going a circle, Xia Yun Xi discovered that the way those n.o.ble ladies looked at her was a bit different. Those ladies grouped together in groups of three to four people. When they saw Xia Yun Xi, their gaze was strange as if they were saying, look, that is Dong Lu’s princess who chased a man and chased till their Yan capital.

Xia Yun Xi wasn’t a fool. How could she not understand the gazes of those women? It was just, here is Bei Zhou. She could only endure! Humph! Xia Yun Xi glared fiercely at those women once. When I become Nan Lin w.a.n.gfei, I will let you see!

Because empress Li Bing was imprisoned, the one who followed Wanyan Lie to these sorts of banquet was consort De, Lin Ke Xin. It could be said that Lin Ke Xin had everything going her way after the crown prince was disposed and the empress was imprisoned. Wanyan Lie let her oversee the harem. Although, she didn’t have the phoenix seal, but Lin Ke Xin’s power was almost the same as the empress’s.

Now, the most important thing for Lin Ke Xin was to let Wanyan Yi become the crown prince smoothly. The day Wanyan Yi becomes the crown prince is the day Li Bing would be disposed and she would become the empress. She wanted this position of empress for a long time. Now, it was right in front of her eyes, how could she give up?

These days, Wanyan Yi listened to her and had been going to Long Autumn palace. It was just, every time, either Feng Cang was there or Wanyan Kang was there. He didn’t had time to be alone with Murong Qi Qi.

Although, the result was a bit inconsistent with what Lin Ke Xin expected, but at least, she made a momentum. Plus, the fact that she spread some rumors in the palace, now many people thought highly of Wanyan Yi and Murong Qi Qi. This made Lin Ke Xin quite satisfied. Next, it’s on today….

Lin Ke Xin sat next to Wanyan Lie. Her mood was very good. Without the empress, she sat like the mistress of this palace. Her every gesture was excellent.

With the eunuch sound, “Audience!”, everyone who partic.i.p.ated in the palace banquet arrived.

When Ming Yue Cheng arrived at the scene, the hearts of those women on the scene couldn’t help but ripple.

He was dressed in luxurious purple clothes. On his waist, a gold belt was buckled. From head to toe, aside from the gold belt, there was no extra decoration. This new emperor of Nan Feng appeared relaxed. There was clear carelessness in his beautiful eyes. His thick hair was only tied with an amethyst hairpin. On his feet turned out to be a pair of clogs.

‘Ka…ka…’ Ming Yue Chen’s steps were not fast nor slow. The clogs knocked on the marble floor and issued a clear sound. Sound after sound, it beat on the people’s heart.

Ming Yue Cheng arrived at his seat and sat down. His gaze swept once over the crowd, but he didn’t see Murong Qi Qi. It seemed that she hasn’t arrived yet.

Just as Ming Yue Cheng was thinking about Murong Qi Qi, a “Nan Lin w.a.n.g arrived! Princess Zhen Guo arrived!”  spread to his ears. Murong Qi Qi arrived! Hearing this, Ming Yue Cheng revealed an excellent smile. She finally came…
