Drunken Immortal Pavilion
Pei Yuan was drinking alone when he was suddenly disturbed.
"Brother Pei, it's so great to meet you here!"
Xie Xuan was feeling down. He had come here to drink, but he never expected to run into Pei Yuan. He stepped forward with a delighted expression, only to hear Pei Yuan say, "Yes, it's so great to meet you here!"
After saying that, he punched him on the bridge of the nose.
Bright red blood gushed from the nose instantly.
Xie Xuan covered his nose and asked in confusion, "Why did you hit me!"
"I'm going to hit you!"
With red eyes, Pei Yuan threw another punch at Xie Xuan.
Having been attacked earlier, Xie Xuan was caught off guard, but this time, with precautions in place, he easily dodged the attack.
"Brother Pei, have you had too much to drink?! Do you recognize me?! I'm Xie Xuan!"
But Pei Yuan said angrily, "I treated you like a brother, but you've betrayed me like this! You knew perfectly well that the birthmark on Miss Su's face could be removed, so why didn't you tell me! You made me embarrass myself in front of Miss Su time and time again. How can you face the friendship we've shared over the years!"
Xie Xuan shook his head, "What are you talking about! What birthmark can be removed? I think you're really drunk!"
"No! Don't lie to me! I saw Miss Su today. The birthmark on her face is gone, and her whole face is as beautiful as an angel, exactly like the one you painted at the literary gathering!"
After Pei Yuan finished speaking, he thought of Su Muxi's face and showed a look of infatuation. He then added, "No! Miss Su in person is even more beautiful than you have painted!"
Xie Xuan's eyes showed disbelief.
Miss Su's birthmark has disappeared?
Seeing Pei Yuan's expression, Xie Xuan's face also turned cold. He wiped the blood from his nose and said seriously, "I don't know if Miss Su's birthmark can be removed, but for me, it doesn't matter whether Miss Su's birthmark can be removed or not, because I like Miss Su as a person, not her appearance!"
"But judging from Brother Pei's appearance, that's not the case!"
"At first I thought you were proposing to Qiao Zixi just because you mistook Miss Su for Qiao Zixi, but now it seems that Brother Pei is really shallow!"
"I had been quite attached to Miss Su, but after seeing her appearance, I felt resentful and unwilling to believe that the person I had been thinking about for so long was actually an ugly woman. That's why I so easily believed Qiao Zixi's lies!"
"Now that you see Miss Su's birthmark has disappeared and she is breathtakingly beautiful, you are still resentful, resentful that you didn't know sooner and then ask Miss Su for her hand in marriage?"
"Oh!"
"Pei Yuan, after knowing you for so long, I've only just realized how shallow you are!"
"A shallow person like you doesn't deserve to like Miss Su at all!"
Pei Yuan's thoughts were mercilessly exposed by Xie Xuan, making him feel utterly ashamed.
Just as Xie Xuan said, he was simply unwilling to accept it, and that was just being superficial!
"Stop talking about me like that! You're just as shallow as me! If you didn't know that Miss Su's birthmark could be removed, would you even like her? Xie Xuan, you're a hypocrite!"
"No! I had no idea that Miss Su's birthmark could be removed!"
Xie Xuan denied it again, but Pei Yuan didn't believe a word of it.
However, what the two were unaware of was that the people in the restaurant had overheard most of their conversation.
The birthmark on Su Muxi's face has disappeared?!
Now she's become as beautiful as an angel?!
There were already very few people talking about Su Muxi, but now the number is quietly increasing again.
Ye Zerui had also heard the rumor. He should have found it interesting, but he was already troubled by various things, and hearing the news only made him more upset.
His fiancée, who was considered ugly before marriage, suddenly transforms into a beautiful bride, and even attracts the attention of his beloved cousin and Lady Zhang from the palace…
Ye Zeyu is really lucky with women!
Murong Tian and Murong Qing thought that Ye Jingchun would not summon them the next day, but unexpectedly, Ye Jingchun suddenly decided to summon the envoys of Northern Yan during the morning court session.
Having been cooped up all night and exhausted from the long journey, they were still sleepy and tired when they received the news.
However, upon learning that Ye Jingchun wanted to see them, they had no choice but to...
"Brother, I think the emperor of Qi is doing this on purpose! He's deliberately making things difficult for us!"
Inside the carriage, Murong Qing complained bitterly, seemingly unafraid of being overheard by the imperial guards outside.
Murong Tian thought the same thing, but when you're under someone else's roof, you have to bow your head.
"When you meet the Emperor of Qi, you must not act so rashly, understand? The Northern Yan of today is not the Northern Yan of the past. If you displease the Emperor of Qi, I'm afraid war will break out again. You don't want to be a princess of a kingdom, do you?"
Murong Qing knew all this. Before the marriage alliance, her father had explained the seriousness of the matter to her, but she simply refused to believe it.
Now that she heard what her brother said, she had no choice but to accept her fate...
However, she didn't want to marry an ugly man!
"Big brother, am I really destined to marry Ye Ziyu?"
"No, you have another choice: marry the Emperor of Qi, capture his heart, and become the Empress of Qi!"
Murong Tian spoke each word carefully, his ambition gradually emerging.
Even though this might cause a falling out with Ye Zerui, the gains are far greater.
No man is immune to lust, and he was certain that his sister would make the Emperor of Qi linger on her bed every night.
My only fear is that my sister lacks the cunning to outmaneuver the women in the palace…
Murong Qing also harbored ambitions, especially after suffering so much injustice at the Su residence yesterday, she craved power even more.
If she becomes the empress of Qi, she can easily trample Ye Ziyu and Su Muxi under her feet!
As for the women in the palace, she didn't care about them at all.
There was only one thing she was still hesitant about.
She was unwilling to marry an old man!
Despite wearing a mask, Ye Ziyu didn't look particularly ugly, but he did have a good physique.
But the emperor of Qi was already an old man in his forties. How could she possibly greet him with a smile, rather than do *that* in bed?
However, when Murong Qing entered the main hall and looked up to see Ye Jingchun's appearance, her hesitation disappeared and she was instantly filled with ambition.
Although Ye Jingchun is now over forty years old, he is well-maintained and looks like he is only in his thirties.
He was handsome, mature and composed, and exuded an innate nobility and majesty.
Although she's a bit older, it's still better than marrying that ugly freak Ye Zeyu!
