Chapter 370 You Should Be Matched with Someone from the Lower Class
Yu Shengsheng saw Su Zhiyi still kneeling in front of the Buddha. The smile on her face was still there, showing the joy from before and the pride of being determined to win.
The fragrance lingered in the air, and her face, unconsciously, changed quietly.
The blood vessels on her cheeks, forehead, and even at the corners of her eyes seemed to become obvious in an instant, and the lines, some thick and some thin, were clearly visible.
She had put on exquisite makeup today, making her face as white as snow. The red marks were particularly clear at this moment.
Yu Shengsheng was also shocked. What was going on?
Her face...
Su Zhiyi was still unaware of what was going on. She saw the prince, who had been so considerate and attentive to her, suddenly step back with a look of fear on his face, and was somewhat puzzled.
“Your Highness…”
When she called out, the prince took another step back.
No matter how proud Su Zhiyi was or how carried away he was, he felt something was wrong at this moment.
She immediately stood up and looked at the abbot.
The abbot was the one who pointed out that she was qualified and special, and that was the person who would help her achieve her goal today.
The abbot frowned and looked at her face, which was much calmer than others.
"Sure enough," the abbot sighed, "the person who is particularly qualified is indeed the princess."
"The Buddha has given instructions, Princess, it is undoubtedly you."
Su Zhiyi's chest rose and fell: "Since you are the princess, you should follow the instructions of the Buddha and take the responsibilities that come with this fate. You should join hands with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and advance and retreat together."
The people in the hall opened their eyes wide, thinking there was something wrong with their ears.
The female members, especially the unmarried ladies, could not help but feel surprised and contemptuous.
"Oh my God, how could she..."
"How did you say that?"
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince didn't even mention it, yet she's talking about joining hands and advancing and retreating together. She's really shameless."
How could Su Zhiyi not know that it was inappropriate to say so, but she couldn't care too much.
These days, she has suffered so much injustice in the Su Mansion, more than in the past ten years combined, and it is all because she is not a biological daughter of the Su family and her status has changed.
The prince is her ladder to success, she must hold on to it tightly and never go back to the old days.
I can’t be suppressed by Yu Shengsheng anymore!
Absolutely not!
What's more, the abbot said that she had a special fate, so why not for her to continue?
The prince frowned. Her disgusting look really made him lose all interest.
If he hadn't considered the presence of so many people, he would have walked away.
Su Zhiyi stared at the abbot: "Abbot, tell me, is it or not?"
Unexpectedly, the abbot shook his head.
Slow and steady.
The abbot bowed to the Buddha statue and said, "The Buddha has instructed that people with special qualifications will often bring karma and cause chaos. Although I don't know what this chaos means, it is definitely not a good thing."
Not a good thing? Everyone sighed.
All eyes fell on Su Zhiyi.
Yes, with those terrible lines on his face, how can he be a good person? How can good things happen to him?
When the prince heard this, he became even more determined that he could not keep this woman.
She just said something about joining hands and advancing and retreating together. She is totally ignorant and shameless.
The prince thought about it and took a few steps back, keeping some distance, as if the person who had just stepped forward and extended his hand to help Su Zhiyi and was considerate and gentle to her was not him.
When Su Zhiyi heard that it was not a good thing, she immediately lost control.
"What nonsense are you talking about? What do you mean it's not a good thing? Before my legs were injured, I was a general and had military merits. I benefited the people, so who wouldn't praise me? How can it be not a good thing?"
Su Huaiyuan frowned and stepped out: "I understand, be careful with your words!"
Su Zhiyi didn't even look at him. She didn't care about him at the moment and just wanted to seize the opportunity.
"Abbot, you say!"
The abbot was not angry, and said calmly: "My Lord, I have said that everything has its own cause and effect. You said that you are a general and have made military achievements. I would like to ask, have you ever been involved in any cause and effect?"
"What kind of cause and effect? This princess is not an ordinary person. Why would I have to pay for killing someone? How can killing on the battlefield be compared?"
The abbot shook his head slowly: "I cannot agree with what the princess said, and what you said is not true."
"Princess, your special fate and karma, according to the Buddha's instructions, requires you to marry a commoner who has no achievements, in order to appease the resentment of the world."
Su Zhiyi's eyes turned red, and he wished he could shoot a sharp arrow to pierce the abbot and kill him.
"What nonsense are you talking about? This princess is of such noble status. She was personally conferred by the Emperor and presided over by the Empress. She is destined to be rich and powerful. She will definitely have a good match and marry the most noble person in the world. How could you say that..."
The abbot said nothing, just stared at her.
In Su Zhiyi's view, this was tantamount to a provocation.
Yu Shengsheng watched this dramatic change and after several twists and turns, she almost couldn't react.
What's going on?
She suddenly remembered what Kong Dezhao had told her to watch the show.
Could it be...
She raised her eyes and looked at Kong Dezhao opposite her.
Kong Dezhao noticed it, looked over and smiled at her.
Originally, Kong Dezhao wanted to fight for the second position to burn incense, and he wanted to go up after the prince. However, Fu Qingyin proposed Yu Shengsheng, so he did not speak.
Afterwards, Yu Shengsheng invited Lu Xiang, but he didn't say anything. Lu Xiang then invited Su Huaiyuan. Although he looked down on Su Huaiyuan, he didn't want to cause trouble for Yu Shengsheng, so he endured it.
Anyway, it doesn't matter whether he burns the incense or not, it will just cause trouble for the prince. Now it seems that the trouble is worse than he imagined.
Then it doesn’t matter which one he burns.
Seeing Yu Shengsheng looking at him, he realized that Yu Shengsheng understood and a smile appeared on her face.
And signaled to her that there was more to come and to watch patiently.
Yu Shengsheng was surprised: Is there anything else?
The two were making eye contact when Fu Qingyin saw it and coughed lightly.
Yu Shengsheng heard the voice and looked over with a questioning look.
Fu Qingyin snorted and looked away.
Yu Shengsheng: “???”
Su Zhiyi said sharply, "You monk, you are so good at talking nonsense. How dare you be rude to this princess! Tell me, who ordered you to do this?"
Before the abbot could say anything, the prince shouted, "How dare you! Su Zhiyi, be careful with your words. The abbot is a great monk and never speaks nonsense. How can you slander me here?"
Su Zhiyi felt very aggrieved, with tears in her eyes, and this time she really wanted to cry.
"Your Highness, you heard everything he said. How could a subject like me marry a man like that? In the matter of marriage, how could I allow him to..."
Someone in the crowd exclaimed "Huh?"
"Doesn't Princess Ruiyang already have a marriage contract? The Emperor personally bestowed her with the title of No. 1 in the imperial examination. Why do you want to..."
Once reminded, everyone remembered.
"Is he the top scholar this time?"
"The one who was thrown off a horse during a parade and broke his arm?"
There was a low laugh.
Su Zhiyi's face turned green.
But it cannot be refuted.
She was so focused on marrying the prince that she had forgotten about this long ago.
She forgot, but someone else didn't.
As everyone was talking and laughing, someone shouted, "The student is here."
