Chapter 26 – Provocation The Evil Prince and his Precious Wife The Sly Lady (1/2)

Sorry for the delay. We will soon come in routine one chapter per day. This chapter is translated by another translator.

Ye Yichen’s face was livid. At that moment, Murong Xue knew the assassin was sent by him. As she couldn’t get any useful information from the assassin, she would kill him in front of Ye Yichen, what a provocative and demonstrative move by her.

Ye Yichen had been leading troops to war for so many years, but it was the first time he had met someone who dared to provoke him; she is really audacious and extremely hateful!

“Let’s go, brother!” Murong Xue gently wiped her bloodstained hairpin with a silk handkerchief, and she turned over slowly.

“But……….”

“Prince Jing is a busy person and he has to deal with a lot of things daily. Let’s try not to interrupt him and just go!” Murong Xue interrupted the words coming from Murong Ye with a smile, held his arm, and dragged him out of the house.

Ye Yichen was looking gloomy and horrible as he stared at Murong Xue’s slim figure that was walking away without any hesitation. He suddenly raised his arm and swept all the stationery that was on the table onto the ground. The calligraphy paper was soaked with the blood on the ground. Through the white paper, the flirtatious red of the blood was stinging and eye-catching.

He kept his gaze on Murong Xue, watching her figure gradually disappear from his vision. Suddenly, he got a strange feeling and wanted to get angry: How dare she just walks away like that? Completely disregarding her ongoing seizures from the cold poison, she is not afraid of the dreadful pain………

Xu Tianyou came forward, watching Murong Xue’s staggering yet physically straight figure, walking with messy but orderly pace, and asked, ‘Prince, are we pushing them too far?’

‘What do you mean?’

‘Murong Xue and Murong Ye are both 14 years old. They are still young, yet they have been through tremendous tragedies. Hence, they are like frightened birds, they always tend to protect themselves from others. If we keep using persecution method, I’m afraid we will naturally arouse their fury!’

Xu Tianyou had never been victim of cold poison. But he heard that cold poison is unforgiving and incurable. It can only be suppressed by eating Fire Lotus Seeds, or else the person will be tortured with an excruciating pain to death.

‘I suggest we try approaching them with kindness, let them know Prince will not bring harm to them.’

Ye Yichen has his own plan, he has a reason for wanting to marry Murong Xue, but definitely not to their life.

Now Murong Ye is still young and he is not capable. He can’t compete with Du (the dowager). No longer than few years, Du will definitely take overthe town of Hou, and when that time comes, he cannot guarantee Murong Ye can stay alive!

But if Murong Xue agrees to marry Ye Yichen as his second wife, Murong Ye will be Ye Yichen’s brother in law. He can protect him from any danger and Murong Ye can live in wealth. Meanwhile, Murong Xue will have endless Fire Lotus Seeds. She won’t be tortured by the pain of the cold poison and can have an extended life!

How come Murong Xue refuses to stick to such a perfect plan which is beneficial to both her and her brother? She may feel insulted to be someone’s second wife, but how can this outweigh her life?

‘Prince, they are not far away from us. I shall call them back, and explain it to them!’ Xu Tianyou had no intention of explaining the whole picture to those siblings. He merely wanted to persuade Murong Xue into marrying Ye Yichen.

‘Not necessary!’Ye Yichen shook his head in disagreement. ‘The return of Murong Xue will only cause disputes between her and Yuyuan, as she wants to become first lady princess only……’
