Chapter 82 I Want to See Him
Xingyue looked at the tense situation, a flicker of fear in her eyes. This was the high and mighty prince, how could Liuyue dare to do this? But the man still stood beside Liuyue, reaching for the soft sword at his waist, as if he was ready to fight at any time.
Seeing this, Prince Rong looked at Liu Yue with some ill intention in his eyes.
"This is the first time I've seen such a bold maid."
"After I marry your daughter into my palace, I will take you into my chambers and make you my concubine."
"Come here, take this maid away, don't hurt her."
Liu Yue tightened the sword in his hand.
"Let's see who dares..."
At the same time, another voice was heard.
"I'll see who dares to touch my people."
The door of the ancestral hall opened and Xiao Fuguang walked out.
He bent down and helped Lin Qingwan up.
He looked at Prince Rong with cold eyes.
"Your Highness Prince Rong, instead of helping the Emperor, actually came to the Xiao family to bully a few weak women. This is truly despicable."
When Prince Rong heard this, there was a hint of anger in his eyes.
"Xiao Fuguang, your marriage with me has already been decided. I came to comfort you because I saw you were sad. Why do you have to speak so harshly?"
Their eyes met. Looking at Prince Rong's face, Xiao Fuguang's eyes showed a hint of depth. He stared straight at Prince Rong's face and continued to speak.
"Your Highness Prince Rong is truly a master at lying. I, Xiao Fuguang, have long said that I won't discuss marriage. So when will I ever get engaged to His Highness?"
When Prince Rong heard this, his face suddenly became angry. Su Yan hurriedly touched his sleeve and shook his head slightly.
"Princess, the prince is concerned about you."
"When Madam Xiao was still alive, she was always worried that you, the princess, would be left alone in the future. She had already discussed your marriage with the Imperial Concubine, and was just waiting to welcome you into Prince Rong's mansion next year. By then, you would have someone to protect you."
Xiao Fuguang's eyes never left Prince Rong's face. In a daze, Xiao Fuguang saw the scene around Prince Rong. This was his mother's room. Prince Rong had been to his mother's room, so it was he who forced his mother to death.
Hatred filled Xiao Fuguang's eyes. He reached out to touch the soft sword at his waist. If he killed him, could he save his sister-in-law, Qi'an, and Fushu?
Prince Rong frowned, wondering why she kept staring at him, and she seemed to hate him very much.
"Xiao Fuguang, I am your future husband. You are not a virtuous wife if you look at me like this."
Xiao Fuguang looked at Prince Rong with cold eyes.
"Your Highness, Prince Rong, my mother never mentioned this matter before her death, and I, Xiao Fuguang, have never agreed to any marriage. Although the threshold of Prince Rong's Mansion is high, I, Xiao Fuguang, am not worthy of it."
"A woman's reputation is extremely important. To casually decide a woman's life with just one word is not the behavior of a gentleman, but the behavior of a villain."
Prince Rong's expression grew increasingly gloomy.
"Xiao Fuguang, I know you're sad, so I came to visit you..."
Prince Rong wanted to kill him, but he couldn't die in the Xiao family. Xiao Fuguang looked up at him and spoke angrily.
"Is His Royal Highness Prince Rong coming to visit or to cause trouble?"
Sure enough, his temper was getting more and more violent. Seeing this, Su Yan pulled King Rong's sleeve and moved closer to him, speaking in a low voice.
"Your Highness, I'm afraid the princess is just too sad and has spoken without thinking. Your Highness, please don't bother with a weak woman. Moreover, the princess is your concubine. As her husband, Your Highness, please be more considerate of her."
After hearing this, Prince Rong suppressed the anger on his face and softened his voice.
"Fuguang, the dead cannot be resurrected, you must accept your grief."
"You are not young anymore. Madam Xiao was most worried about your marriage when she was alive. I will go to the palace to ask my father for permission to marry, and then come to the Xiao family to propose marriage. I know you can't get married within a year, so we will set the wedding date for this time next year, as you will have already been in mourning for a year!"
So the purpose of forcing his mother to death was to force himself to marry into Prince Rong's mansion? Xiao Fuguang looked into Prince Rong's eyes.
"I would like to thank His Royal Highness Prince Rong for considering this humble servant, but I will not marry. If Your Highness really wants to force me, you might as well carry my body into Prince Rong's mansion!"
He was really unmoved. Prince Rong spoke with anger and majesty.
"Xiao Fuguang, marriage is a matter of life and death, decided by parents and matchmakers. Although your mother has passed away, this marriage was arranged by her and my mother, the Concubine. As her daughter, you must fulfill the engagement, and the Concubine's decree does not allow you to challenge it."
This Prince Rong really has a bad temper. Wasn't it agreed that he would come to comfort others? Why is he threatening others? Su Yan said helplessly.
"Your Highness, the princess is grieving right now, and you're speaking without restraint. Your Highness, considering that the princess just lost her mother, please don't argue with her. Husband and wife should care and understand each other."
Prince Rong restrained his expression upon hearing this.
"Forget it. Considering your sadness, I won't bother with you. I will choose a day to come to the Xiao family to propose marriage. You should be prepared."
Then turned and left.
Seeing this, Su Yan spoke to Xiao Fuguang.
"Don't worry, Princess. Our prince has you in his heart. As long as you marry into Prince Rong's Mansion, your prince will be your husband and your support. He will also take good care of the Xiao family."
After saying that, he chased after King Rong.
Xiao Fuguang gritted his teeth tightly, his body trembling slightly with anger, and his whole body exuded a murderous aura.
Seeing this, Lin Qingwan held her hand with a distressed look on her face.
"Fuguang, don't be afraid, your sister-in-law is here."
"Sister-in-law, I'll have someone prepare the carriage right away. I'm going back to the Lin family. Prince Rong is going too far. I'm going to fight him."
After saying this, he gave instructions to the maid.
"Hurry up and prepare the carriage!"
Xiao Fuguang spoke.
"etc………"
Lin Qingwan looked at her with concern.
"Fuguang, sister-in-law will really protect you."
Xiao Fuguang held her hand.
"Thank you, sister-in-law."
"But let's not involve the Lin family in this matter. Prince Rong is ruthless, and the Yao family is his executioner. If the Lin family is implicated, Fu Guang will feel even more uneasy."
Lin Qingwan was so anxious that tears fell when she heard this.
"Then what are you going to do? Prince Rong, she's made up her mind. Now mother is... going to force you to marry into Prince Rong's mansion."
At this time, Xiao Fushu, who arrived, spoke.
"Sister-in-law, sister, if he insists on marrying the daughter of the Xiao family, then I will marry him on behalf of my sister."
Lin Qingwan spoke hurriedly after hearing this.
"Fushu, don't make things worse. He's here for your sister."
Xiao Fushu spoke upon hearing this.
"When the wedding is over, the veil is covered, so he can't see who is getting on the sedan chair. As long as I enter the Rong Palace, the rice is cooked and the rice is cooked. He will have no choice but to recognize the marriage. He can't possibly marry both daughters of the Xiao family."
Looking at his sister-in-law and sister who were protecting him, Xiao Fuguang couldn't help but have tears in his eyes. He shouldn't be depressed. Since it was Concubine Yao and her son who forced his mother to death, he should send them down to apologize to his mother. He reached out and pulled Xiao Fusu and Lin Qingwan.
"Sister-in-law, Fushu, thank you for protecting me."
Then he looked at Xiao Fushu.
"How can a sister let her sister go into a den of tigers and wolves?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Fushu looked at Xiao Fuguang and spoke worriedly.
“But sister…”
Xiao Fuguang held her hand.
"Sister will take care of it."
Then he looked into the distance.
"Since you have to get married, then get married."
There is no warmth in his eyes. Since power does not treat people as human beings, then I, Xiao Fuguang, will grab the power I can grab.
"Liu Yue, go to the Regent's Mansion and tell the Regent that I want to see him."
