Upon hearing that the Northern Cold King had arrived, the frenzied crowd instantly stood in neat rows, not daring to push or make a sound, as if they were at a military training camp.
Yun Qingran: Another day of yearning for power~
The understated yet luxurious carriage of the Northern Cold King slowly passed by the entrance of Gaga Xiang, and everyone treated him with the reverence of a deity, yet also with awe and fear.
King Beihan has won countless battles, and the peaceful days that Beiyin enjoys today are all thanks to him leading the soldiers on the frontier in battle after battle. To the people of Beiyin, he is their god.
However, he went to the battlefield at the age of twelve. In his first battle, the number of heads he killed was so great that it crushed his warhorse. Moreover, he was ruthless and merciless in his actions, earning him the nickname "King of Hell" among men, which made everyone fear him.
Seeing that no one dared to move, Yun Qingran quickly and quietly left Gaga Xiang. It was too terrifying! Fortunately, Jun Molin happened to pass by, otherwise she probably wouldn't have been able to escape today.
"She's gone?" Jun Molin asked Pei Chen from inside the carriage.
"Your Highness, Miss Yun has safely left Gaga Xiang," Pei Chen replied.
Jun Molin nodded and lowered the carriage curtain.
He leaned back on the cushion, his fingers caressing a jade hairpin, which Yun Qingran had left behind in his carriage the night before.
Jun Molin was not a naive young man. As a grown man, he knew that he had fallen in love with Yun Qingran.
I don't know when, perhaps when I saw him fighting Xuanling with such valor and efficiency, perhaps when she saved the little prince from danger, or perhaps when she was sharp-tongued and a bit of a sycophant to me.
No matter when, he was certain that he liked her.
But a relationship between the two of them is impossible, because he already has An'an and Yan'yan. If he marries her, she'll have to be the mother of two three-year-old children right after entering the family, which isn't fair.
Moreover, An Ning and Yan Yan's mother are still unsure whether they are alive or dead. If An Ning were to come looking for them one day, how would Yun Qingran cope?
Jun Molin stopped stroking the jade hairpin, took out a clean white handkerchief from his pocket, carefully wrapped it up, and put it in a cabinet in the carriage, placing it on the bottom shelf, where it would never see the light of day, just like his affection, buried deep in his heart.
When Yun Qingran returned home, she found a middle-aged woman dressed in red and green, with a red flower in her hair. The woman had a smiling face and looked very happy.
"Oh, this must be Miss Yun. You're absolutely stunning, like a fairy descended from heaven!" The woman stood up quickly when she saw Yun Qingran return, took Yun Qingran's hand, and praised her joyfully.
"You flatter me, you flatter me." Yun Qingran waved her hand modestly, then asked her, "And you are?"
"Um, Miss Yun, I am Matchmaker Lü, the number one matchmaker in the capital. I have been entrusted by Lord Yu to introduce you to his eldest son, Young Master Yu," Matchmaker Lü said cheerfully.
"Lord Yu?" Yun Qingran searched her memory but couldn't find any record of this Lord Yu.
Matchmaker Lü quickly introduced, "Lord Yu is the Chief Physician, and his wife's family is a merchant family. They have money and power, which is quite impressive. As for Young Master Yu, he is Lord Yu's only legitimate son, and his character is also very upright."
"How tall is Young Master Yu? What does he look like?" Yun Qingran asked Matchmaker Lü.
“Six feet tall on horseback,” the matchmaker said.
At least six feet, which is 1.8 meters, barely acceptable.
"Let's meet and see each other first," Yun Qingran said, not immediately agreeing.
"Alright, there's no time like the present, how about tomorrow?" Matchmaker Lü asked happily.
Young Master Yu told her that if she successfully arranged the marriage, he would give her a commission of five thousand taels. Five thousand taels! That's enough for her to buy a small house.
“Okay, no problem,” Yun Qingran agreed.
"Then I'll go and give them my reply." Matchmaker Lü left happily.
When Yunxiao returned home in the evening, she was overjoyed, dancing with excitement. She had really stole the show that day, and all her colleagues envied her for having such a beautiful daughter with such excellent medical skills.
Seeing Yunxiao's happy expression, Yun Qingran felt joyful too. After this period of nourishing food, Yunxiao now had a rosy complexion, had gained a little weight, and was happy every day. She felt she had done right by the original owner of this body.
The next morning, Yun Qingran went to the appointment on time, and then returned grumbling.
"Ranran, what happened?" Ning Jitang came to visit her and happened to see this scene, so he quickly asked her.
"That idiot matchmaker told me that Young Master Yu was at least six feet tall, but I didn't expect him to be six feet tall on horseback." Yun Qingran almost had a heart attack from anger.
"Pfft~" Ning Jitang laughed so hard he couldn't stand up straight.
"You're still laughing? Are you even my sister?" Yun Qingran rolled her eyes at Ning Jitang.
"Why do you suddenly want to get married? Didn't you say you would never get married in your life?" Ning Jitang asked her teasingly.
"Sigh, the Emperor wants me to become a mother by accident, so I need to find someone to marry off as soon as possible." Yun Qingran sighed deeply.
Oh, what a worry!
"Huh! Becoming a mother unexpectedly?" Ning Jitang didn't understand.
Yun Qingran recounted what had happened yesterday to Ning Jitang.
"Ah, His Majesty wants you to marry His Highness the Prince of Beihan!" Ning Jitang exclaimed in shock.
"That's what Jun Molin told me, but after thinking back on the Emperor's attitude towards me, I think it's probably true," Yun Qingran said with a gloomy expression.
"Oh my god, Ranran, you're going to marry His Highness the Northern Cold King!" Ning Jitang exclaimed excitedly.
"Big sister, what's there to be happy about?" Yun Qingran couldn't understand Ning Jitang's reaction at all.
Jun Molin is a cold-blooded man, rumored to be a ruthless killer, and as a prince, he's a high-risk individual. Anyone who marries such a person is doomed!
"Why wouldn't you be happy? He's His Highness the King of Beihan!" Ning Jitang exclaimed with admiration.
"What's wrong with His Highness the Northern Cold King?" Yun Qingran still didn't understand what Ning Jitang's G-spot was.
"His Highness the Prince of Beihan is handsome, has a great physique, a cool and aloof demeanor, is a master strategist, and is also a noble prince. He is the man that all the girls in Beiyin, and even the whole world, want to marry the most." Ning Jitang's eyes sparkled.
"Being handsome doesn't put food on the table. Okay, being handsome is indeed very important." Yun Qingran clicked her tongue and nodded.
"Ranran, just marry him. Think about it, when you're eating with him in front of you, don't you eat two more bowls of rice? When you're sleeping with him in front of you, don't you sleep better?" Ning Jitang analyzed for her.
"That being said, but..." I don't know why, but I just have a feeling of fear about marrying him.
"Why don't you recommend me to the Emperor? I'll marry him," Ning Jitang said with a grin.
“Yes, I will go to the palace tomorrow to recommend you to the Emperor.” Yun Qingran readily agreed.
"Just kidding. Although I admire His Highness the Northern Cold King, I can't handle her." After Ning Jitang finished speaking, he looked at Yun Qingran's face and said, "Ranran, to be honest, I think you and His Highness the Northern Cold King are a good match. You are both good-looking."
"Forget it, I really don't want to marry him." Yun Qingran continued, "Forget about him, come with me to Lingxi Temple, pray to Buddha, and ask him to grant me a good husband."
