Chapter 61: Displaying Charm and Being United Through Marriage (1/2)

Bai Aoxue nodded towards Cangsheng without letting people notice.

Seeing Bai Aoxue understand his meaning, Cangsheng was relieved.

In fact, even he didn’t understand why he was risking his life to help Bai Aoxue. However, when he thought that on one warm and sunny day, a girl in red dress said that still water run deep and songs accompany with sea and Sheng, he didn’t want her to be in danger.

In such a cold palace, there could be such a fire-like girl who gave him a trace of warmth. Although he could lose his life, he wanted to protect her.

And he also knew that a woman like Bai Aoxue deserved him to give everything.

”Today, General Ye returned triumphantly, which make us extremely happy. Now everybody joins me in a toast to millions of brothers and passionate men of Chengxi!” Jun Wuhen’s high-pitched voice echoed in the Imperial Garden.

He also made Cangsheng come back from his thoughts.

Jun Wuhen’s words warmed up the atmosphere that was originally lively. All the men and women present all raised their glasses.

”I toast to those men who built and protect Chengxi!” Jun Wuhen raised the glass. Raising his head, he drank the wine in the glass straightly.

And Jun Wuhen’s movement made all officials follow him.

”His Majesty is right! Let’s drink it!” Bai Qiwei also appealed to the public.

Bai Aoxue glanced at Bai Qiwei disdainfully, while her eyes kept watching Jun Yeyan.

She then saw that Jun Yeyan faintly smiled: ”Your Majesty is reasonable. Although I don’t understand how to kill people in the battlefield, I do admire General Ye. General Ye and I will soon become a family. Today, I will drink this glass of wine first! At our wedding, I will indeed serve a glass of wine to uncle!”

When everyone listened to the words of Jun Yeyan, they only thought that this good-for-nothing prince seemed to be different from the past, while they could not distinguish what it was.

After Bai Aoxue listened to the words of Jun Yeyan, instead of being angry, she suddenly thought that glass of wine of Jun Yeyan was poisonous. Or should she say that the whole pot of wine was poisonous.

Although Bai Aoxue knew that Jun Wuhen wouldn’t let people spot a weak point from that Jun Yeyan was poisoned at the banquet, she was still worried. This kind of worry was the emotion she has never had before.

Then she saw Jun Yeyan quickly drank the glass of wine after speaking. Bai Aoxue had her heart in her mouth all of a sudden.

Jun Wuhen was also nervous. This was the occasion that he was waiting for.

Jun Wuhen’s hanging heart wasn’t put down until Jun Yeyan drank the wine. The smile on the corner of his mouth was getting more obvious. As soon as he thought that Jun Yeyan was tortured, he felt good.

When Bai Aoxue saw Jun Yeyan didn’t have adverse reaction, she slightly calmed down.

At this time, Bai Qiwei, who sat beside Bai Aoxue, sneered fiercely.

The reason why Bai Qiwei behaved like this was easy to guess. Jun Yeyan didn’t mention him just now, which apparently embarrassed him. How could he not be angry?

Bai Aoxue didn’t in the mood to argue with Bai Qiwei. She watched Jun Yeyan nervously. Bai Aoxue did not find out that Jun Yeyan has already taken up half of the scenery in her eyes somehow.

When Jun Yeyan looked up, he saw the nervous appearance of Bai Aoxue, and the pond in his heart began to ripple again, letting his calm mind moving restlessly.

Bai Aoxue saw Jun Yeyan also looking at her. Opening her rosy lips, she just wanted to talk, while found that it was not the appropriate occasion. She could only look at Jun Yeyan silently.

”Reassured, I’m fine.” With the breeze, a short sentence wafted to Bai Aoxue's ear, which was enough to make her feel at ease. Bai Aoxue knew that it was the sound of Jun Yeyan.

At this time, everyone toasted to Ye Zhaojue. Bai Aoxue also picked up the glass. The air was filled with a touch of wine.

Just when Bai Aoxue picked up the glass, she already felt a few gazes.

Paying no attention to them, she raised up her mouth and smiled. Bai Aoxue sniffed the wine as she drank it.

Within seconds, Bai Aoxue already knew the ingredients of the poison in the wine. She drank them all straightforwardly then put the glass on the table.

Jun Wuhen finally nodded with satisfaction. After all, both of them drank the wine under his observation, so that he had nothing to worry about.

Looking at Jun Wuhen's satisfactory appearance, Bai Aoxue disdainfully sneered. She thought in mind: Jun Wuhen might never expect that the poison he ordered people to put could be detoxified in just a few minutes. If he wanted to threaten them with antidotes, he probably would be disappointed.

Looking at Jun Yeyan who was also worried, her mood suddenly changed. She felt a little bit sour and a little bit sweet, while this feeling was not bad.

Bai Aoxue blinked toward Jun Yeyan sweetly. Originally, she wanted to tell Jun Yeyan that she was fine, but Bai Aoxue didn’t know that her cheerful appearance is another kind of amorous feelings in someone else’s eyes.

She, who has always been glamorous and noble, swept away the image of the past. Now she was clever and lively. Besides, she was surrounded by flowers in full blossom, which made people think that she was a fairy of flower.

Jun Yeyan was thinking like this. He now had an impulse of hiding Bai Aoxue from being peeked by anyone else.

He knew that such an impulse was not unreasonable. He wanted to do so long ago, but he has always resisted it.

But today he found that such an impulse has become stronger which was serious enough to prompt him to act.
