Chapter 25: Ah Xiang Should Have Been My Crown Prince’s Consort



Gu Yan said: "Not really, it's just that the girl that cousin Jing likes doesn't want to marry him. That girl is really blind. She doesn't want to marry such a good husband. It's been more than four years, and cousin Jing is still obsessed with her and wants to marry her."

Yun Xiangye had heard this for four years and her hands clenched the corners of her clothes tightly under the blanket.

Gu Yan said: "Cousin Jing is so protective of such an ungrateful woman that he won't let me say that my future cousin-in-law is blind."

As soon as Gu Yan finished speaking, Yun Xiangye sneezed twice in succession. She stared at Gu Yan and said, "You are indeed quite short-sighted."

After all, why did she marry him?

Seeing Yun Xiangye sneezing non-stop, Gu Yan climbed onto the small couch and held her in his arms, "Are you still cold?"

Yun Xiangye shook her head, "It's not cold..."

Gu Yan asked, "Then why are you sneezing again?"

Yun Xiangye answered absentmindedly, "Maybe some bastard is scolding me."

Inside Chu Jing Pavilion.

Zhao Jing was in the second-floor wing, looking at his kneeling men below. He said angrily, "What did you say? Where did Ah Xiang go?"

The middle-aged man kneeling in front of Zhao Jing trembled and said, "Miss Yun, Miss Yun left Fangqiao Town with her husband. She said she was going back to Chang'an with her husband..."

Zhao Jing clenched his fists and pounded on the small table beside him. His face was filled with anger. "Husband? How could Ah Xiang have a husband?"

Shopkeeper Tang, who was kneeling on the ground, said, "Ms. Yun...Ms. Yun, she has been married for three years."

"Three years?" Zhao Jing frowned. "How is that possible? How could she have been married for three years?"

Shopkeeper Tang said, "For the past few years, I have followed your instructions and asked my men to go to the Five Colors Embroidery Workshop every three months to order a dress embroidered by Miss Yun herself. However, my men only knew how to order the dress and didn't know how to report Miss Yun's marriage..."

This time when I went to get the pomegranate red skirt, Miss Yun said she would not take any more jobs in the future because she was going to follow her husband back to her in-laws’ home in Chang’an…”

Zhao Jing's face turned ashen. He clenched the teacup in his hand tightly and actually crushed the porcelain cup to pieces. The porcelain pieces cut his hand and drew blood, but he didn't feel any pain.

Zhao Jing said coldly, "Go find out who her husband is. Once you find out, force him to divorce her and bring her to the Prince of Chu's Palace!"

Shopkeeper Tang looked up at Zhao Jing and said, "Prince, isn't this raping a commoner girl? I'm afraid the prince and princess will..."

Zhao Jing said angrily, "Ah Xiang should have been my Crown Prince's Consort."

Zhao Jing originally wanted to wait until Yun Xiangye's sister reached the age of marriage, and then go find Yun Xiangye to see if she would no longer be so determined not to get married. However, he did not expect that Yun Xiangye swore that she would not get married four years ago, and got married the following year.

Zhao Jing originally thought that his subordinates would understand why he had the Five Colors Embroidery Workshop make clothes and send them to Chang'an every three months. However, he didn't expect that his subordinates were so confused that they didn't even report such a big thing.

Zhao Jing returned to the palace in a rage, and only then did he remember that Gu Yan had asked him for hickory nuts.

After Zhao Jing took the walnuts, he said to the servant beside him, "Prepare the carriage and go to the Princess's Mansion."
