Chapter 463 Leaving Yanzhou!
After receiving the message from Yanzhou, Duanmu Chen's face turned extremely gloomy.
"Outrageous! This Xie Yilin is simply an idiot! She can't even handle such a simple task, and she actually dared to change the plan on her own? Fine! Very well, this time, I'll see how you get out of this mess!"
"Your Highness, in your opinion, should we take action to rescue Miss Xie first?"
"No need! Let her live to vent Prince Chang Le's anger. She actually dared to drug A Nuan with aphrodisiacs, so Prince Chang Le will definitely not let her off easily. If Prince Chang Le doesn't get his revenge, I'm afraid he will find a way to cause trouble for the Xie family in the capital."
"Yes, Your Highness. What about Miss Xie?" The eunuch's voice was tinged with worry; if Miss Xie were to reveal her master's identity, things would get complicated.
"Don't worry, she's a smart woman. She knows what to say and what not to say." Duanmu Chen didn't seem to care much. "However, I was hoping that Xie Yilin could seduce Prince Chang Le, but it seems that she's far from succeeding."
"Your Highness, I heard that Miss Xie has not had a chance to see you since she arrived in Yanzhou. She only saw you from afar at this treasure appraisal event. If Your Highness truly had feelings for her, you wouldn't have refused her back in the capital."
Duanmu Chen's brow furrowed. "Of course I know he has no interest in Xie Yilin. He was just hoping she could find a way to get into Prince Chang Le's bed, which would make Mu Xin Nuan angry, and then I could use some tricks to get her out. Now it seems that this Xie Yilin is really useless. It's not without reason that Fourth Uncle didn't like her back then."
"Your Highness, this test has likely already caught the attention of Prince Chang Le. What do you think?"
Duanmu Chen waved his hand, "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. Since one Xie Yilin isn't enough, then sending any more beauties will be useless. Fine, let them enjoy themselves for a few days. I'll deal with them after the important matters in the capital are settled."
"Yes, Your Highness."
Duanmu Chen looked at the neatly arranged wedding dress on the bed beside him, his brows furrowing slightly. He couldn't say he disliked the Wang family's daughter, but he certainly didn't like her either! However, in order to put his grandmother at ease, to win over the Wang family, and to establish a strong backing for himself, this marriage was imperative.
Duanmu Chen looked at the somewhat cold and desolate furnishings in the room. Although there was a hint of joy in the room, why couldn't he feel any happiness at all?
"Mu Xin Nuan! Mu Xin Nuan!" Duanmu Chen almost gritted his teeth as he called her name twice. His clenched fists were visibly blue and white, and the bulging veins revealed most of his inner thoughts!
"You wait, one day I will make you willingly become my woman! As for Duanmu Chuze, hehe, if you know what's good for you, you should hand you over to me! I am the future master of this Great Yong. Duanmu Chuze, you deserve to die!"
With a swift movement, the octagonal table beside him shattered!
The guards and servants outside the door lowered their heads and shrank their necks, trying to minimize their presence. They seemed to have forgotten that they were all guarding outside, and no matter how much they shrank their necks, their masters inside wouldn't be able to see them.
The guards exchanged worried glances. His Highness Changsun's temper was becoming increasingly volatile. In such a short time, almost everything in the palace had been replaced! If it weren't for his concern for the Crown Prince and Crown Princess, he might have taken even bigger actions!
For three consecutive days, Hsieh Yi-lin lived in constant fear.
On this day, after He Jiajun returned to his residence, he had a gloomy face and ordered her to be sent back to the Lu residence.
Seeing her husband's expression, Madam He roughly guessed that it was probably related to the Prince. Sure enough, no sooner had Xie Yilin left than Madam He hurriedly asked, "What happened? Was the Prince angry?"
They worried for three days, and Prince Chang Le didn't leave Yi Jing Garden for three days, staying by Princess Chang Le's side without leaving her side. This made people outside even more worried. Especially the He family couple. Of course, since Xie Yi Lin was the one who caused the trouble, Madam He naturally wouldn't let them worry alone. That very night, she sent someone to deliver the news to the Lu family.
It is said that on that very night, Master Lu flew into a rage and apparently even laid a hand on Madam Lu.
Madam He had also heard the news about this, but she simply shook her head. She really couldn't understand her aunt, Madam Lu.
Why did you have to bring Xie Yilin here when you could have had a perfectly good life at home? Now look what's happened! You've offended Prince Chang Le, how are the Lu family supposed to live from now on?
Seeing that Lu Shaofeng had just gained the prince's favor, and now he had caused such a scene, it was unknown whether the prince would take his anger out on him.
Madam He no longer had the mind to worry about the Lu family's affairs; she only hoped that in his rage, the Prince would remember the Crown Princess's kindness in raising him. After all, he had served the Crown Princess for many years; she hoped he wouldn't go too far.
Although Xie Yilin didn't know if the Prince of Chang Le knew everything, she only knew that she had to leave Yanzhou as soon as possible.
She wasn't quite sure what kind of person Prince Chang Le was, but just the thought that he had fought bloody battles and crawled out of piles of corpses sent chills down her spine.
"Aunt, please send someone to take me back to the capital. Aunt, I really don't want to stay here for another day."
Although Madam Lu was also annoyed by her reckless actions, she seemed to have no other choice at the moment. Besides, if Prince Chang Le had obtained the evidence, he should have already taken action against Xie Yilin. Why hadn't he made a move yet?
It's hard to tell whether Madam Lu was too naive or simply a bit too protective of her own.
"Don't worry. Your aunt will have someone send you back today, and your second cousin will personally escort you back."
Xie Yilin was overjoyed upon hearing this. As long as she left Yanzhou, she would no longer be afraid of Duanmu Chuze.
Xie Yilin was only focused on escaping and did not notice that there was a faint handprint on Madam Lu's face. If you looked closely, you could also see that her left cheek was slightly swollen.
Lu Shaohua had absolutely no liking for this cousin.
The Lu family had only been quiet for a few days, and now they've been dragged into this mess again. However, since he's a member of the Xie family in the capital, he couldn't say anything. Following his mother's orders, he took guards and escorted him out of Yanzhou City.
However, Xie Yilin was being far too naive! Having provoked Mu Xinnuan, how could Duanmu Chuze possibly let her off so easily? Madam Lu is protective of her own? Hmph! Duanmu Chuze is even more protective of his own!
