Chapter 374: 385

Bu Jinglan sat quietly in his seat, twirling his wine cup. He did not care about the verbal confrontation in the hall at all. After listening to Baili Junyi’s words, Bu Yonghan smiled slightly and looked at him innocently. “Fifth Prince, I didn’t know about what you said. Let me go back and investigate it. I won’t be offended if I confirm what you said is true. But now, I haven’t confirmed it yet, so I’m angry with you. I think there is a saying in your country that goes, ‘good men don’t fight with women’. You’ve offended me, so I can’t just let it slip.”

Huh? Did she blame him now? The audience became even more intrigued at this point. Judging from Princess Yonghan’s attitude, she was flirting with Royal Prince Yi right in front of Princess Zhaohua. They wondered what Princess Zhaohua would do about this. It was intolerable.

Shen Ninghua raised her eyes slightly and asserted, “Princess Yonghan, you are new here, so there are many things that you don’t understand. Sixth Prince, you should explain to her in detail. In the Da’an Kingdom, we not only stick to etiquettes, which stop good men from fighting with women, but also emphasize hierarchy and social status. Princess Yonghan, even if you are angry, you have to endure it.” Although they were both members of the royal family, Bu Yonghan was much inferior to Baili Junyi. Since they were not at the same level, Bu Yonghan had to swallow her frustration even if she was exasperated!

Her words were straight to the point and blunt, and the smile on Bu Yonghan’s face froze. Bu Yonghan looked at Baili Junyi in slight dismay. Didn’t he feel that his dignity had been violated when Shen Ninghua spoke like that just now? He allowed her to step over him to speak in place of him. Wasn’t this cowardice when a great man needed his wife to stand up for him?

However, when she saw Baili Junyi’s expression, she secretly gritted her teeth in annoyance. There wasn’t the slightest bit of anger on Baili Junyi’s face. Instead, his smile was filled with warmth and happiness. He looked at Shen Ninghua even more attentively. Not only was he not angry, but he also looked happy and seemed to enjoy this.

Bu Yonghan returned to her seat and muttered in a stiff tone, “I’ve learned my lesson today. Princess Zhaohua, I hope that you will not hesitate to teach me in the future.”

Shen Ninghua smiled lightly. “In a few days, Your Highness will be going back to your country with the Sixth Prince and his official wife. Even if we want to have a conversation, I’m afraid we won’t have that much time. What do you think?”

Bu Yonghan was choked by her words, and a gush of hot blood rushed to her head. She opened her mouth and blurted, completely forgetting Bu Jinglan’s warning, “Sixth Brother has told me long ago that the Da’an Kingdom is a great place with outstanding talents, and it is a nice place to settle down and have a peaceful life. I have yearned for visiting this place for a long time. Now, I’m at the marriageable age too. If I can find an ideal husband in this kingdom, I can stay here for a long time, and I’ll have all the time in the world to have a conversation with you, Princess Zhaohua.”

“Oh, Princess Yonghan, are you searching for a potential husband in our kingdom? This is good news. Under the rule of Father Emperor, the Da’an Kingdom is peaceful and prosperous, and the people are loyal and proud of serving His Majesty. Your Highness will definitely find a suitable husband here.”

Bu Jinglan’s expression shifted. He stood up and raised his wine cup toward Baili Qingcang. “Your Majesty, my Father Emperor has intended to find an ideal husband for Yonghan. It will definitely be a piece of good news for the two kingdoms if she can find a suitable husband here.”

Since Bu Jinglan stepped forward, Shen Ninghua sat back in her seat, picked up her chopsticks, and tasted the dishes on the table. The imperial chefs in the palace were extremely skilled. Although the dishes were a little cold now, the taste and smell were still quite delicious.

Baili Junyi looked at her, his eyes full of tenderness. Originally, they were on the surface, and Bu Jinglan was in the dark. They had to be on guard against what Bu Jinglan was doing at all times. Now, Ninghua had disrupted Bu Jinglan’s schemes and reversed their positions, and she revealed the purpose of Bu Jinglan’s and Bu Yonghan’s trip. From now on, everything the two of them did would be under everyone’s attention. That would be fun.

Baili Qingcang nodded slightly. “Princess Yonghan, you are innocent, straightforward, pure, and cute. It would be great if you could find an ideal husband in our kingdom.”

Hearing this, Bu Yonghan immediately stood up and bowed. Her tone was crisp and innocent as she spoke, “Your Majesty, if I take a fancy to any young master in the future, can I tell you directly?”

Baili Qingcang replied generously, “Of course. If you two love each other, I will grant you your wish.”

The bold and confident Bu Yonghan directly answered, “Thank you, Your Majesty. When I find a suitable candidate, I will tell Your Majesty immediately. You are a man of your word, and we have many witnesses who can testify. I look forward to fulfilling my beautiful marriage with your help.”

Noble Consort Li quietly pinched the silk handkerchief in her hand and carefully looked at Bu Yonghan. Finally, she looked away. Although she wanted to get the Great Yue Kingdom’s support eagerly, she couldn’t make her move carelessly. Bu Yonghan’s identity was special. She was not a royal prince’s daughter like Bu Tinghe. She was the imperial family’s princess born by the Empress. With her status, she couldn’t be married to the Third Prince as his side concubine. However, taking her hand as the official wife would completely block the Third Prince’s path of seizing the throne.

However, even if Noble Consort Li could not get Bu Yonghan to be married to the Third Prince and be his support, she wouldn’t let her marry other princes to become a hindrance to the Third Prince. She wanted the Third Prince to have the full support of the Great Yue Kingdom. Therefore, she had to observe carefully what kind of person Bu Yonghan wanted to choose as her husband.

There was a continuous confrontation at the banquet, but Lin Feiran, the bride-to-be, was ignored by the crowd. She sat in her seat, her eyes full of frustration. She could not win against Shen Ninghua in the past, and today, Shen Ninghua was still in the limelight. Thinking of this, she pulled and tugged the silk handkerchief in her hands in annoyance. Her face was tense and stiff.

Bu Yonghan suddenly said, “Sister Lin, are you not feeling well? I see that you look quite pale and gloomy.”

Lin Feiran quickly adjusted her expression and looked up with a natural and graceful expression, “I’m fine. It’s just that I haven’t had a good rest these two days, and I feel a little tired. I’m sorry for making you worry about me.” As soon as she looked up, she saw that Bu Jinglan was looking at her with concern in his eyes, and she blushed timidly. To be honest, Bu Jinglan was exceptionally handsome with his tall and slender body and outstanding facial features. In addition, he had a trace of evil charm in his eyes, which made women want to throw their hearts at him at a glance.

Bu Yonghan teased her with a smile. “Sister Lin, you’re nervous about the wedding, aren’t you? Don’t worry, Sixth Brother is very nice and kind. You are Princess Anyue, and you will be his official wife. No one will dare to bully you. If anyone is unconvinced, you can just have them dragged out and executed. ”

Lin Feiran was taken aback by her remarks, and then she felt a surge of excitement rising from the bottom of her heart. Yes, Bu Yonghan was right. She was now the imperial family’s princess. In a few days, she would marry Bu Jinglan and become the official wife of a prince. In terms of status, she was not inferior to Shen Ninghua at all. By then, should she take this opportunity to take revenge for the matter of Shen Ninghua bullying her before? Noble Consort Li had informed her that Shen Ninghua paid extra attention to the imperial family’s dignity. Her wedding date with Bu Jinglan was set, and even if she humiliated Shen Ninghua, she would not dare to do anything to her!

Thinking of being able to trample Shen Ninghua under her feet, Lin Feiran trembled with excitement. A surge of eagerness rose in her heart, and her eyes turned bright and sparkly. She had long been jealous of the fact that Shen Ninghua was even more imposing than a real princess born to the imperial family. The table had turned now. She had to win once, no matter what.

Bu Jinglan scolded slightly, “Yonghan, don’t talk nonsense. Princess Anyue, you must take care of yourself.”

“Yes, thank you for your concern, Sixth Prince.” Lin Feiran’s face was like a rosy cloud, and she looked shy and timid. Her expression was delicate and docile, and she looked like a flower bud waiting to bloom.

Apart from the confrontation at the beginning of the banquet, the scene at the banquet after that was quite harmonious. After the banquet, everyone dispersed with their own thoughts.

Bu Jinglan and Bu Yonghan were arranged to stay in the posthouse. When they returned to the posthouse, Bu Yonghan asked someone to prepare hot water for a bath. She was about to take off her clothes when she heard the door of the room suddenly kicked open from the outside. When she saw the incoming person, she frowned with displeasure. “Sixth Brother, what’s wrong with you? Even if you are angry, don’t vent it on me!”

Bu Jinglan’s mother was extremely favored by the Emperor, but her mother was Empress. In terms of status and favor, she was one level above him. Others were afraid of him, but she was not afraid.

“Yonghan, do you know how much trouble you have caused me at the banquet today?”

Bu Yonghan tidied her clothes and sat down in her seat. She fidgeted with the hair that had fallen to her chest. “What did I do? Did I do something wrong today?”

“Did you do something wrong? Didn’t we agree that it was not urgent for you to choose a husband? Didn’t we agree to take our time? Now that you suddenly exposed your plan at the banquet, our plan is in chaos!” Bu Jinglan was full of anger, and the aura in his body was dangerous and threatening.

However, Bu Yonghan did not seem to mind. “Sixth Brother, you have used too many schemes, so you end up overthinking things. Remember my status and identity. My mother is the Great Yue Kingdom’s Empress, and I am Father Emperor’s most beloved daughter. I can get all the men I want! I don’t even need to find them at all. As long as I wave my finger, there will be many people kneeling and crawling over!”

“You…” Bu Jinglan became even angrier.

“I what? Am I wrong? Sixth Brother, you have been in an awkward position in the Great Yue Kingdom recently. I think you’ve abandoned your dignity as the Great Yue Kingdom’s prince, am I right?” Bu Yonghan sneered sarcastically.

Bu Jinglan was annoyed. “Do you know who the people you want to plot against are? Shen Ninghua and Baili Junyi are different. They are greatly in love with each other and are resourceful. If you underestimate them, you won’t even know how you perish! Bu Tinghe is the best example!”

“Are you comparing me with Bu Tinghe?” Bu Yonghan’s eyes were full of sarcasm. “She is weak and stupid. She had such a great opportunity, but she wasted it and ruined the whole thing. Don’t you dare compare me with that idiot!”

“Hah!” Bu Jinglan laughed in irritation, “Do you think you’re smarter than her?”

“Oh, I’m no match to you, Sixth brother. You married a disabled side concubine first, and then, you will marry a fake princess!”

Bu Jinglan gritted his teeth and a trace of bloodthirsty killing intent flashed in his eyes. “Have you forgotten what you promised me before?”

Bu Yonghan’s heart skipped a beat. She was a little afraid of his current appearance. “I haven’t. I remember. I will listen to your arrangements and not mess around. It’s just a small matter. Why are you so worked up?”

Bu Jinglan gave her a warning look. “It is best if you can remember your words. Otherwise, I can guarantee that you will die without knowing why!”
