The Great Planned Marriage: Becoming A Splendid Princess
Hearing Wei Ziye’s thought, Shi Qingxue shook her head without thinking.
“No way.”
Wei Ziye got anxious and said loudly, “My Lady, it’s not the time to be kind-hearted. We can’t even save ourselves. Why would you be a good person?”
“You thought that…” Shi Qingxue was stunned for a moment and then realized that Wei Ziye misunderstood her.
Although she had many reasons to convince Wei Ziye, it was not the right time to argue.
She paused for a while and then said, “Just have a try as you said.”
Wei Ziye was overjoyed and prepared to pack up Ye Zhixin and send her to the people outside. Unexpectedly, he showed his intention to make peace, while the arrows from outside didn’t stop, but more and more came.
It was obvious that the attackers wanted to take their lives.
Wei Ziye finally realized the reality and thought about how Shi Qingxue behaved. Then he understood everything.
Shi Qingxue denied his proposal not to save Ye Zhixin, but she knew that the people outside were cruel, and it would be useless even if they gave up Ye Zhixin.
The enemies wanted to kill them to keep the secret.
Wei Ziye cursed himself secretly as he was stupid and then apologized to Shi Qingxue guiltily, “My Lady, I…”
Shi Qingxue interrupted him in advance and said softly, “No need to talk about this matter. Let’s figure out how to escape.”
She understood what Wei Ziye thought about and even knew the evil intentions of the people outside. She didn’t stop Wei Ziye from talking with them because she had some cockeyed delusions.
It was no wonder that Wei Ziye had this thought.
She pondered for a moment and then turned to Mo Junyang.
Mo Junyang kept silent all the time since just now.
Even though this man didn’t like talking, his behavior was abnormal.
Mo Junyang felt her eyes and smiled at her, saying softly, “Don’t worry. We will be fine.”
He said that with certainty, and it seemed that he didn’t realize that they were almost driven to a corner.
Shi Qingxue was speechless.
She didn’t know what she could say to express her helplessness.
Wei Ziye also looked at Mo Junyang anxiously and asked, “Master, what should we do now? Please give instructions.”
Although their door had been reinforced by Wei Ziye specially and couldn’t be destroyed easily, under the dense attacks of the sharp arrows, it wouldn’t sustain itself for long no matter how solid it was.
After the sharp arrows penetrated the door, it would be their turn to become hornets’ nests next.
Mo Junyang just looked at the door and said unhurriedly, “No hurry. Wait a moment.”
Shi Qingxue and Wei Ziye were speechless.
Judging from Mo Junyang’s casual expression, it seemed not sword rain outside but a shower, and he was the person listening to the rain behind the door.
There were too many to be commented on, and Shi Qingxue didn’t know how to complain.
At the moment, the solid wooden door finally couldn’t stand it. A sharp arrow suddenly penetrated the door and came in.
However, this arrow lost most impact force because of the door plank. Before it flew to Shi Qingxue, it fell on the floor.
What a close call! She was more scared than hurt.
Shi Qingxue’s heart beat fast, and she didn’t think that she was lucky.
This arrow didn’t fly to them, but perhaps the next one…
Qingxue gritted her teeth secretly and prepared to stress the seriousness of the matter to Mo Junyang again, but something magical happened.
The cracks from outside disappeared at once, and it was so quiet that even the sound of a needle falling on the floor could be heard.
However, Shi Qingxue didn’t get relieved but became more nervous.
The arrow rain stopped. Didn’t it mean that a more horrible attack was waiting for them?
“Don’t be afraid.” Mo Junyang noticed Qingxue’s restlessness and held her in his arms gently, indicating that she could relax.
Shi Qingxue finally found that Mo Junyang was more relieved than before, as if he weren’t trapped.
Even though Mo Junyang was always calm, he was too conceited as he didn’t care.
Next second, the room door was pushed open all of a sudden.
Shi Qingxue shrank by instinct and then heard a familiar voice.
“Qingxue, I came to help you.”
Qingxue turned her head, to see that Mo Junzhan rushed in joyfully and ran to her with a big smile.
In fact, she was confused.
Why was Mo Junzhan here?
The people following Mo Junzhan were Wei Zichao and the others who parted with them and came here. Seeing Mo Junyang, all of them knelt down. “Master, we came late. Please forgive us.”
Mo Junyang waved his hand and gestured for them to get up, asking, “Where are the people outside?”
“They have been captured and tied up outside by His Highness, me and the others. Please give instructions, Master.” Wei Zichao pointed to the door.
Mo Junyang walked out and saw that more than ten people dressed in government worker’s uniform were tied up and thrown in the middle of the courtyard. Next to them were the seized bows, arrows and some unused gunpowder.
It appeared that these people had many back-up plans.
Mo Junyang sneered and drew a long sword from a guard’s waist conveniently to lift one worker from the government. “Who told you to come?”
The bright sword blade was close to that worker’s neck, and he was so scared that he swallowed repeatedly and didn’t dare to hide anything from Mo Junyang. He stuttered, “The magistrate told me to…”
Shi Qingxue had known that the officials in Jiangzhou City wouldn’t let them live in peace here these days, while she hadn’t expected that they would be almost killed only a few days later after they entered the city even though they were so low-key.
She wanted to praise the magistrate who was so “bold”.
However, before they asked more, a loud voice came from outside the courtyard. “The magistrate has come.”
Then a few soldiers with broadswords on their waists came in one after another and surrounded all of them along the wall of the courtyard.
A minor official, Rank-5 magistrate showed up in a big way, like the emperor.
Before they saw the person, they heard a lofty voice. “Who is so bold as to disturb the workers from the government when they are working? Do you want to die?”
Afterward, a middle-aged man with an official’s hat dressed in official uniform with wild bird pattern walked in surrounded by many people.
This man was not tall but a little fat. The wide official uniform couldn’t hide his slightly prominent belly, and it made his imagine supposed to be majestic look swollen.
Perhaps he was used to assuming great airs of authority for a long time, and his expression and posture showed the sign that he was a beast in human clothing.
It was Shi Qingxue’s first time to see an official who almost showed the word “scoundrel” on his face, and she couldn’t help but laugh.
This official was the famous magistrate in Jiangzhou, Yan Xu. He instantly felt that he was offended, so he glared at Shi Qingxue ferociously and rebuked in a loud voice, “You have stayed alive for long enough. You dare to laugh at me. Somebody, capture her.”
As soon as he ordered, the guards brought by Wei Zichao and the others showed their sharp swords at the same time before the soldiers took actions.
Mo Junzhan put the sword on the magistrate’s neck and snorted coldly. “How dare you try to harm Qingxue? I think that you don’t want to stay alive.”
Yan Xu had been the magistrate in Jiangzhou for so many years and become a tyrant in this area. Others were afraid of him to the bone, and he was threatened in this way for the first time, but his life was under Mo Junzhan’s control.
His momentum was much weaker, and he just goggled, shouting at Mo Junzhan incoherently, “How dare you! I…I am an official sent by the imperial court, but you dare to offend me. Aren’t you afraid that your head will be cut off?”
“I am going to see whose head will be cut off sooner.” Mo Junzhan snorted and turned to Wei Zichao. “Take out the imperial edict.”
Mo Junyang came here certainly after Mo Junyu gave him the imperial edict, but in order to disguise himself more thoroughly, he gave it to Wei Zichao in the beginning.
Wei Zichao had never taken out the imperial edict all the way and didn’t know why the ninth prince knew that it was in his hands.
He was stunned and peeped at Mo Junyang, while the latter didn’t say anything.
Mo Junzhan glared at him, so Wei Zichao had to take the imperial edict out of his pocket.
As soon as Yan Xu saw the bright yellow imperial edict, he knew that he had offended somebody that he couldn’t afford to. Before Wei Zichao read the imperial edict, Yan Xu knelt down and kowtowed to beg for mercy. “I didn’t know that you came from afar. I am sorry that I didn’t welcome you earlier. Please forgive me, Your Excellency.”
“Ah?” Mo Junzhan was astonished and then realized that Yan Xu took him as Mo Junyang.
When he was about to explain, a big hand was put on his shoulder, and a distant voice came from behind.
“Lord Yan, you have come, right? The welcome is really unusual and has widened the horizon of His Excellency and us.”
Mo Junyang cut in.
Mo Junzhan was not stupid. He immediately realized that Mo Junyang planned to make the best of a mistake.
Logically, Mo Junzhan was certainly unwilling to be ordered by his “rival in love”, but Shi Qingxue winked at him.
The ninth prince pondered for a moment and decided to show respect for Mo Junyang. He snorted and didn’t retort.
Yan Xu’s blood froze because of the sarcasm and Mo Junzhan’s disdain. He apologized repeatedly, “I am just anxious to capture the prisoner, but I disturb your residence unexpectedly. Please spare me because I did it for the public interest, Your Excellency.”
Although he apologized, it revealed that he performed his duties in his words, and he didn’t do anything wrong.
Mo Junyang uplifted his brows and sneered. “So you mean that His Excellency disturbed you when you were working? The workers from the government broke into a civilian’s house without saying anything in advance, and they tried to kill the innocent people after they were driven away. Is this the attitude you should have when you are working? The imperial court spent so much money and provided for you, making you fat just to let you kill anybody randomly and ignore the common people’s lives and property?”
The reproaching voice was louder and made Yan Xu unable to speak a word. He had sweat all over his head and looked pale, trembling, as if he would fall on the floor next second.
A young man following Yan Xu supported him in time from behind and said in a low voice, “Lord Yan was merely afraid that the prisoner would run away and it would make the common people’s lives and property suffer great losses and arouse panic, so he was anxious for success. Please forgive him, Your Excellency.”
His words made an accusation of ignoring the common people’s lives become hard efforts to consider for the people.
He was really talented.

“Your Highness?” Shi Qingxue shouted in a daze, still with a surprised and bewildered expression.In fact, she was confused.
