Chapter 358 The Ruthless Regent Prince vs. the Delicate Daughter of the Prime Minister's Residence (Twenty-One)



Zhan Beiting carefully carried Jiang Jingyue on his back. It was his first time carrying someone, so he was a little worried that he wasn't carrying her properly.

After carrying Jiang Jingyue on his back, Zhan Beiting couldn't help but turn around and look at her.

"Yueyue, how are you feeling? If you feel uncomfortable, you must tell me."

When Zhan Jiang Jingyue heard Zhan Beiting say that, she couldn't help but laugh.

"Your Highness, you don't need to worry. I'm perfectly fine. I'm all right now."

Hearing Jiang Jingyue say that, Zhan Beiting finally felt a little relieved.

He carefully carried Jiang Jingyue on his back and walked outside.

The people outside were already waiting, and they were all shocked when they saw Zhan Beiting carrying Jiang Jingyue on his back.

However, they didn't say much, since this was a matter for the regent himself.

Zhan Beiting carried her on his back and slowly walked to the side of the carriage, then carefully put Jiang Jingyue down.

Next, he helped Jiang Jingyue into the carriage. He picked her up and strode into the carriage.

As soon as he entered, Jiang Jingyue grabbed him.

"Your Highness, are we preparing to return now?"

When Zhan Beiting heard Jiang Jingyue ask this question, he nodded.

After he nodded, he realized that Jiang Jingyue couldn't see at all, so he nodded without her knowing.

That's why he spoke up to Jiang Jingyue.

"Yueyue, we're heading back to the palace now. Is there anything else you need?"

Jiang Jingyue was a little nervous, and when she heard Zhan Beiting ask that question, she shook her head.

"No, Your Highness, let's set off then! I have nothing else to do now."

As the carriage set off, the onlookers began to murmur amongst themselves, mainly because Zhan Beiting's carriage was carrying so many things that they were dazzled by the sight.

"Judging from this, the regent really likes the daughter of Prime Minister Jiang. Look at all the things he has prepared."

I remember when the Empress entered the palace, there wasn't such a grand procession.

"Do you know what this proves? It only proves that this regent really likes the Jiang family's daughter. And isn't Prince Cheng also getting married today? Let's go take a look."

Upon hearing this, a large group of people became very excited and all ran in another direction.

"Let's hurry over and see what the ranking is for Prince Cheng, and whether it's better than for the Regent."

It's not that easy to surpass the Regent.

When the large group of people arrived at Prince Cheng's place, they were somewhat disappointed when they saw what Prince Cheng had prepared.

The main issue is that the things prepared by the Prince of Cheng were more than twice as few as those prepared by the Regent.

There was nothing interesting to see, so the people glanced at it and then all turned and left.

Zhan Chengde was puzzled by the way the people were behaving, given that he had made such a grand display of force; why weren't they surprised?

He was waiting to see the surprised expressions on these people's faces, but to his surprise, they just glanced at him and then left.

Seeing them like this, Zhan Chengde was really confused. He had no idea what was going on.

Seeing another civilian come over, take a look, and then prepare to run away, he immediately had his men stop him.

The person who was stopped was completely bewildered; he had no idea why someone had suddenly stopped him.

He just came to see what was going on, so why was he stopped?

"This... sir, is there something you need? Why are you stopping me? I haven't accomplished anything; we just came to watch the commotion."

Regardless of what the commoner said, that person immediately pulled the person in front of Zhan Chengde.

Zhan Chengde immediately shouted at the person kneeling on the ground, trembling.

"Where are you all going now? Why are you all in such a hurry?"

When the commoner heard this question, he was somewhat surprised, but he still spoke the truth.

"Your Highness, we just want to get over there as quickly as possible. The Regent is scattering wedding candies, and we thought we could grab a little bit to share in the joy."

Zhan Chengde was furious when he heard this.

He couldn't help but ask the person in front of him.

"What's so interesting about the Regent's side? The things he prepared certainly aren't as many as what I've prepared."

"They'll be throwing out wedding candy soon, so you can just wait here. You don't need to keep running around."

Actually, this commoner wasn't so willing. The Regent's side looked much better than this one. Maybe if he went over there, he would have some unexpected gains later.

But there was no other way. Now that Prince Cheng had spoken, he knew that no matter what, he had to stay.

At this moment, the person who went to investigate returned.

At this moment, he looked at Zhan Chengde, panting, and spoke.

"Your Highness, the Regent has far more stuff than you do, which is why they've all gone there."

Upon hearing this, Zhan Chengde was somewhat incredulous.

He thought his status was already high enough, but he didn't expect that Zhan Beiting's side would be even higher.

At this point, Zhan Chengde simply did not believe it.

So he didn't care about anything else, pulled up the horse, mounted it, and rode off in a flash.

Before the people behind could react, Zhan Chengde had already disappeared.

Seeing what was happening in front of them, they looked at each other in bewilderment, completely at a loss for what to do.

Today is Prince Cheng's wedding day, and it's still a healthy time. He suddenly ran away, and now there's no way to continue what we're about to do!

"What are you standing there for? Hurry up and chase after him. See what Prince Cheng is up to. Bring him back quickly. How can we let him leave at such an important moment?"

Upon hearing this, the others realized what was happening and immediately rode off to catch up.

However, perhaps because Zhan Chengde was in a hurry, they couldn't see him at all when they chased after him.

They had no choice but to search.

I searched everywhere, but couldn't find it.

Now, everyone was a bit confused and had no idea what to do.

"Eunuch Zhang, what should we do now that we can't find the Prince? We can't afford to delay with the Princess either!"
