Seeing Xiao YanXue still filled with doubt, Ling Tian sighed and explained, ”Yu ManLou is already planning for the imperial throne after the continent is united . Why must he marry a lady from a big family? This is so that his future child would have sufficient status and foundation to ascend the throne in future including a sufficiently powerful mother clan! Do you understand? The more he chooses a lady from a prestigious family, the more he doesn't place any hope in the two sons of his! His anxiousness represents the importance which he places in this matter . Furthermore, his action would also mean that Yu ManLou was extremely satisfied and regarded this former prime minister greatly . Why shouldn't he be happy? If Yu ManLou united the continent in future, his grandson would be the future ruler of the world and his family would be carried to new heights as well! Can all of these benefits not outweigh a single daughter of his?”
Ling Tian then added with a mocking smile, ”Besides, a daughter will have to be married out eventually . If you were in his shoes, would you rather your daughter be the empress or even the empress dowager? Or would you rather your daughter marry a poor scholar? As long as Yu ManLou can unite the world, then the imperial throne would not escape from them!”
”In the world today, is there a family which is even stronger than the Yu Family?” Ling Tian scoffed .
”I see… no wonder…” Xiao YanXue suddenly lowered her head with depression . After understanding all of these, she thought about how her family wanted to force her into a marriage and could not help but feel dejected .
Seeing Xiao YanXue's expression, Ling Tian naturally knew what this la.s.s was thinking about . He could not help but let out a sigh and smile . ”Why? Seeing an old cow like Yu ManLou eat fresh gra.s.s is making Miss Xiao feel regret? Miss Xiao can't wait to get married off? Should I go and inform Yu ManLou? After all, the princess of the Xiao Family would definitely have a much higher status than the former prime minister's daughter! I believe that Yu ManLou would definitely change his mind . After all, he should be willing to listen to my opinions . ”
”Ling Tian you… you… why don't you just go and die!” Xiao YanXue was embarra.s.sed and angered by Ling Tian's words and did not even have the time to feel any form of self-pity . She quickly grabbed the teacup and flung it towards him .
Ling Tian burst into laughter and avoided it .
”If you s.n.a.t.c.h Yu ManLou's bride…” Xiao YanXue suddenly said with a flash of inspiration .
”F**k!” Ling Tian was shocked out of his wits, ”Big sister, you should just take those words as a joke . Don't count on me to be so crazy . ”
Xiao YanXue let out a bright smile filled with grace and elegance . Ling Tian felt his head go dizzy as he almost fell into the beauty's trap .
Three days later, the news of the Yu Family having a wedding had spread all across the world . Just as Ling Tian had expected, that former prime minister, Su JianYan, jumped for joy and sent his daughter over gleefully with his whole residence celebrating secretly . In such chaotic times, their family had managed to cling to the strongest family on the continent!
Just when the bride's sedan entered the Yu Residence, Ling Tian leisurely rode out of the city with Xiao YanXue .
n.o.body knew why Ling Tian only left today or what he had done in the past three days . This secret made Yu ManLou frustrated for a long time after he found out about Ling Tian's whereabouts . It was only until many years later that Yu ManLou found out just what Ling Tian had planted in these three days . The things that Ling Tian had done and planted in these three days almost wiped out the Yu Family in a single night! At that time, everything was different and everything was too late…
The sun gradually set, and mist began to rise from all directions . However, two horses continued to walk along the road at a steady pace as though they weren't afraid of not having a place to stay for the night .
”Where are we going? Why are you always giving me a perfunctory reply!” The crisp voice of a young lady could be heard .
”Miss, this is the seventh time you have asked me this question . ” A helpless reply could be heard .
”If you do not always reply to me with a 'haha' without telling me where we are going, would I be pestering you? Since you don't want to reply to me, of course I have to continue asking! I will keep asking until I get my answer,” the young lady reprimanded with dissatisfaction .
”Haha…”
”Again!”
”Hahaha…”
”Laugh…just keep laughing… you darn idiot who only knows how to laugh! I heard that you want to go towards the DongFang Family?” Her doubtful voice sounded, ”It seems like you have some agreement with DongFang JingLei? According to our current route, we are definitely headed towards the DongFang Family . ”
