Chapter 183 Snatch
To Prince Yu Liu's regret, Princess Lingque has returned to her previous appearance.
She had gauze wrapped around her head, and her scattered black hair hung casually beside her fair cheeks, making her look more delicate and fragile than before.
Prince Yu Liu suppressed his lips and comforted: "Don't be afraid, my sister, your hair can grow back——"
"I have serious matters to discuss with my brother, so let's not talk about anything else." Princess Lingque said seriously, with a storm in her heart.
No matter who it is, if he mentions her hair again, she wants to kill him!
Prince Yu Liu was very tactful: "Princess, you speak."
"I've found a suitable candidate for my husband." Princess Lingque's expressionless face seemed to be talking about something that had nothing to do with her.
Prince Yu Liu was quite surprised: "Who?"
Princess Lingque raised her eyebrows and smiled: "My brother, what do you think of Yang Zhe, the top scholar of the Great Zhou Dynasty?"
Prince Yu Liu was stunned, and then he was puzzled: "He has a very ordinary background, and he is engaged to Princess Yi An."
It seems unprofitable.
Princess Lingque curled her lips, her heart ablaze with fire as she spoke word by word, "It would be appropriate to be engaged to Princess Yi'an."
"What do you mean?" Prince Yu Liu acted as if he wanted to hear more details, vaguely suspecting that Princess Lingque was seeking revenge on Princess Yian.
Just because she has a bald spot on her head, she wants to steal someone else's husband. Tsk tsk, this woman has such a strong desire for revenge.
Princess Lingque didn't care what her brother thought and gave her own reasons: "My brother has also heard that the Queen Mother of the Great Zhou Dynasty dotes on Princess Yi'an. The top scholar Yang Zhe was the one the Queen Mother personally selected for her as a consort. And the Emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty is very filial to the Queen Mother."
Her eyelids drooped, her tone slightly cold. "My dear prince, when I, now without memory, made this request, did the Emperor of Great Zhou refuse out of filial piety, or did he want to quell this incident that could have caused a rift between the two countries and hurt the Empress Dowager's feelings?"
Prince Yu Liu's eyes lit up slightly. Although he didn't say anything, he was obviously persuaded by Princess Lingque.
Princess Lingque sneered, "If you refuse, I'm amnesiac, what do I know? I'll definitely cause a huge uproar. If you agree—haha, then the deep love between the Emperor of Great Zhou and the Empress Dowager will be discounted. I heard that there was an emperor before the Emperor of Great Zhou, the eldest son of the Empress Dowager. This emperor is just missing, maybe he's still alive. If my choice of a consort can cause a rift between the Emperor of Great Zhou and the Empress Dowager, maybe there will be a good show in the future."
As a princess, she knew very well that people in high positions could not withstand cracks in their relationships with others because they had too much and were too afraid of losing what they had.
"My sister thinks really far ahead." Prince Yu Liu sighed.
This girl has been harboring evil intentions ever since she pretended to have amnesia. Fortunately, she is his sister, and the one who is causing trouble is the Great Zhou.
"Does my brother agree with my choice?"
Prince Yu Liu hesitated. "My sister's choice is a good one, but we just arrived in the Great Zhou. Should we take a look at other candidates?"
This decision was made too quickly.
Princess Lingque's face turned slightly cold, and she raised her chin: "A quick decision doesn't mean a hasty one. While I'm injured, this is the best time."
She is going bald, and she is determined to snatch that bitch's husband away!
"Then I'll listen to my sister." Prince Yu Liu nodded.
Anyway, it’s not him who is getting married.
After the matter was settled, Princess Lingque asked, "My brother, is that number one scholar, Yang Zhe, truly both talented and handsome?"
Prince Yu Liu thought back to Yang Zhe's appearance: "I can't tell how talented he is at first glance, but he's certainly good-looking."
"How does it compare to my brother?" Princess Lingque smiled.
She's good-looking, and she stole that bitch's money. It's hard not to be happy.
Prince Yu Liu thought for a long time, then said with embarrassment, "That's about right."
Princess Lingque choked.
If that's the case, she'd be a little worried...
Prince Yu Liu didn't feel guilty about saying this and began to think about his next move. "Although we're both drinking together in Fuxiang Garden, my sister has never met the top scholar, Yang Zhe. It's illogical to suddenly ask him to be her consort."
Princess Lingque had already thought about it: "This is not difficult. Isn't Yang Zhe praised for his talent? Could it be that my brother has forgotten Tianming and the others?"
During this diplomatic mission to the Great Zhou, three talented men were specially selected from the entourage in order to find an opportunity to destroy the prestige of the talented men of the Great Zhou.
"Let them provoke the talented scholars of the Great Zhou Dynasty and make things bigger. Yang Zhe, as a leading young scholar, will definitely get involved. Then, Brother Wang will take me to watch their competition under the pretext of relaxing. It's only natural that I will be impressed by the talent of the top scholar."
Prince Yu Liu was impressed: "My sister, you are so thoughtful."
Princess Lingque rubbed her brows and said, "I'm tired. Brother Wang, please go back."
"Then you should have a good rest."
As soon as Prince Yu Liu left, the atmosphere around Princess Ling Que suddenly turned cold: "Bring me the mirror."
The maid carefully brought the glass mirror.
Princess Lingque stared at the stunningly beautiful woman in the mirror, her eyes filled with anger. "Tell me, when will my hair grow back?"
The maidservant said with a pale face, "The imperial physician said that the princess is young and has sufficient energy and blood. The hair that was cut will grow back soon."
"How fast is fast?"
"Three... two, oh, no, one month." The maid was almost driven to death by this question.
When Princess Lingque heard that it would take a month, she was struck by lightning and swept the teacup away with her sleeves: "I'm so annoyed!"
Afterwards, Princess Lingque retreated to recuperate, and the guesthouse was filled with gifts from all sides. The storm seemed to have passed. Princess Yi'an breathed a sigh of relief, finally having the leisure to return to the Marquis of Weiwu's residence.
"Where is my sister?" Princess Yi'an asked about Kou Wan as soon as she saw Kou's mother.
"Wan'er went out early this morning, saying she was buying some rouge and powder." Mother Kou observed her daughter's complexion and felt relieved. "Something happened to Princess Yuliu. I was worried about you, but fortunately, nothing happened."
Princess Yi'an's face darkened: "Mother, please don't mention this again."
"Okay, okay, let's not talk about it." Kou's mother ordered the maid, "Send someone to the shop where the second young lady often goes to check and find her. She's so old now, and once she goes out, she's like a wild horse that has broken free from its reins..."
Princess Yi'an turned a deaf ear to Kou's mother's nagging, and waited patiently for Kou Wan to return. She said calmly, "I'll go talk to my sister."
The two sisters went to Kou Wan's boudoir and dismissed the servants.
Kou Wan felt a little complicated.
She was sad and unwilling to accept her sister's indifference on the day of the flower-viewing banquet. When something happened to Princess Lingque, she secretly blamed herself for causing trouble to her sister. She was tormented by various emotions these days and felt very uncomfortable. Today she went to the street to buy some things that girls like to give to Miss Lin Er to express her gratitude. Unexpectedly, her sister came back and took the initiative to talk to her.
The haze that had been hanging over her heart for the past few days seemed to dissipate. Kou Wan smiled and asked, "When did my sister come back?"
Princess Yi'an stared at her smiling sister and slapped her.
Kou Wan covered her cheek, stunned: "Sister?"
