Chapter 615 - Crown Prince Xieyues Doubt (2/2)

Crown Prince Xieyue looked as if he didn’t notice the dissatisfied expression on Princess Caifeng’s face. He raised his hand and gestured at Hu Qianyue. “What kind of person is Consort Xuan?”

Ever since they entered King Xuan’s Manor, they had never seen King Xuan, who was supposed to be the host. It was said that the delicate and weak Consort Xuan was ill. Crown Prince Xieyue had always thought that it was Consort Xuan’s means of fighting for King Xuan’s affections. Ever since his sister saw King Xuan, she had been absent-minded. Crown Prince Xieyue knew that she liked King Xuan.

He was happy to see such a thing. Anyway, it was better for Princess Caifeng to marry the most favored prince in the Qin Kingdom. However, later something happened between King Yan and Princess Caifeng, and it could not be hidden. In fact, the Qin Kingdom’s Emperor in the palace must have learned it, so it was the best choice for Caifeng to marry King Yan.

No matter what, Princess Caifeng could be considered one of his camp. He only hoped that she would be obedient and agree with the marriage, instead of causing too much trouble.

As for King Xuan, Feng Yuran, according to Xieyue’s observation, King Xuan was definitely not as simple as he seemed on the surface. Originally, he wanted to take advantage of the time they spent with each other to observe him more. However, he did not expect that King Xuan had never showed up since Consort Xuan got ill.

Although they lived in King Xuan’s Manor, they felt as if they had been living in the other prince’s manor. From time to time, they saw those princes, but the host of King Xuan’s Manor could not be seen at all. Xieyue had long suspected that the so-called illness of Consort Xuan was just a means to prevent Caifeng from seeing King Xuan.

The best way to arrange a marriage between two countries was to marry a princess to a prince!

Even though the other princes were all handsome, they were not attractive enough compared to the handsome King Xuan. Consort Xuan had intentionally pretended to be ill and detained King Xuan. It was also something excusable!

The problem lay in King Xuan. It was said that King Xuan was unrestrained and was the biggest playboy in the Qin Kingdom. There were many beautiful women in his manor and he dared to accept all kind of woman. However, since Consort Xuan entered the manor, there had been no more rumors about him. Furthermore, he worked in the court like a prince who had really settled down and there was no word that he was incapable of work.

From this, it could be seen that King Xuan was not simple, and so was Consort Xuan!

And now, it was very obvious that King Xuan was very straightforward to express that he did not want to marry Caifeng. Then Xieyue could only choose one from the other princes.

“Consort Xuan looks fabulous and young. She should be only 14 or 15 years old. Perhaps because she is ill, her face is a little pale. Her words might hold water and her voice is gentle, but it gives people a sense of indifference…” Hu Qianyue thought for a while and described.

“She’s fabulous? Is she more fabulous than me?” Princess Caifeng could not help but interrupt.

“Caifeng, not another word!” Crown Prince Xieyue’s face darkened. Princess Caifeng was so scared that she immediately shut her mouth. Although she was not convinced in her heart, she did not dare to say anything.

“Do you think she is really ill?” Crown Prince Xieyue’s eyes darkened a little.

“She didn’t look very good and was a little too pale, and…” Hu Qianyue looked at the pale face of Crown Prince Xieyue. “It’s similar to Your Highness’s face.”

Crown Prince Xieyue had fallen ill since he was born. He had always been in poor health. Even though it did not affect his daily life, he had never stopped having medicine. If Consort Xuan’s face was similar to his, then one could tell that she was indeed unwell. However, the fact that she could attend the banquet today meant that she was definitely not as bad as what the rumors said. So, the new that Consort Xuan had almost died of illness was unreliable.

As expected, Consort Xuan had intentionally exaggerated her illness in order to make King Xuan avoid contact with Caifeng.

“Elder brother, Consort Xuan will also attend tonight’s banquet. If you have any questions, you can go and see her.” Princess Caifeng was annoyed when she saw that Crown Prince Xieyue had been thinking about Consort Xuan. She was being spoiled and had long forgotten the orders of the Southern Barbarian Lands’ Emperor before she came to the Qin Kingdom.

“Miss Hu, off you go and prepare the clothes for Caifeng to go to the palace banquet.” Xieyue ignored her words and said to Hu Qianyue with a smile.

Hu Qianyue knew that the brother and sister had something to say, so she took her leave.

When Hu Qianyue and her maidservants walked away, Crown Prince Xieyue turned his head and said seriously, “Caifeng, the Qin Kingdom’s Emperor may grant the engagement tonight. You should be mentally prepared. Don’t lose your manners at that time.”

Caifeng had been in contact with several princes during this period of time. Even if the Qin Kingdom’s Emperor didn’t mention it, Xieyue felt that it was necessary to remind him of the engagement. Otherwise, if they kept in contact with each other like this, the reputation of Caifeng would be totally ruined!

“Today? It’s so fast!” Princess Caifeng was stunned. She had been living a comfortable life recently. There were handsome men coming to flatter her every day, making her very happy. However, when she thought that she was going to marry the handsome King Xuan, her face flushed and she lowered her head. She muttered, “I will listen to your orders!”

“It’s time to decide. King Yan is a good person, and so is Consort Yan. Remember not to bully her when you go to King Yan’s Manor. After all, she is the legitimate daughter of Duke Mingguo.” Xieyue was very satisfied with the obedient reaction of Princess Caifeng, so he nodded and praised her.

What? King Yan, Feng Yulei? Wasn’t she going to marry King Xuan, Feng Yuran? Princess Caifeng suddenly raised her head as if she had been struck by lightning. She looked at Crown Prince Xieyue in shock and a hint of hatred and anger flashed in her eyes.
