I rolled my eyes at the so-called celestial master and sneered inwardly, "What celestial phenomenon? It was just a total solar eclipse!"
"Your Majesty, the recent continuous heavy rains may bring disaster!"
"What!"
Everyone looked on incredulously, fearing what might happen.
"Don't panic, everyone. I'm sure you all heard a woman scream that day. I've been thinking about it repeatedly recently and I've discovered that there must be an ominous person who will bring disaster to Lingqi!"
"Screaming? A woman falling from the sky? That must be me!" Instantly, my hair stood on end, and I felt incredibly nervous.
Ye Lisheng's hands clenched tightly within his wide sleeves, radiating a dangerous aura. He knew who the woman the Celestial Master had pointed to was.
A ruthless glint appeared at the corner of Murong Kui's mouth. This was something she and Wang Qiaochuan had already planned; only in this way could they completely drive her away.
At this moment, Ye Liming asked, "Does the Celestial Master know who that ominous woman is?"
Suddenly, Wang Qiaochuan's deep gaze fell upon me; though a smile played on his lips, it was terrifyingly chilling.
Ye Lisheng looked at me nervously; this was the first time he had ever felt so nervous.
"Your Majesty, not yet!"
Hearing him say that, I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Ye Lisheng's heart, which had been hanging in suspense, was finally put at ease.
"This matter will be entrusted to the Celestial Master. He must find that woman as soon as possible. If needed, inform me at any time."
"Your subject will certainly not fail in your mission!"
"The Prince of Anyang!"
"Your subject is here!"
"Have someone take good care of Princess Murong, and make sure nothing goes wrong again!"
"Your subject obeys."
Her eyes darted back and forth between Murong Kui and me, and she couldn't help but exclaim, "How can there be people in this world who look so alike!"
"Now that the real Princess Murong has returned, you should also revert to being yourself!"
I was just about to thank him when Mo Sheng suddenly spoke up with a serious expression.
"emperor!"
"What does the Imperial Advisor have to say?"
"Miss Okra and I have long been engaged, and we hope Your Majesty will grant our wish!"
Something suddenly exploded in my mind, and I stared blankly at it.
Equally unbelievable was Ye Lisheng; I could sense he was murderous.
He came up to me, a strange fragrance wafting towards my nose: "The end of this month is the day we agreed to get married and go home together!"
When he said that, I understood. He knew I wouldn't go back with him, so he came up with this plan to force me to go back with him.
I stared at him in shock, wanting to speak but unable to utter a single word.
At that moment, in front of everyone, he reached out his hand to me and asked with deep affection, "Will you marry me?"
Ye Lisheng's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets.
"You wretched woman, if you dare say you agree, I will take your life!"
I wanted to refuse, but strangely I nodded and offered him my hand, letting him do as he pleased.
"Granted!"
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone offered their blessings.
Ye Lisheng stormed out of the palace gates, and everyone who saw her quickly avoided her.
Murong Kui hurriedly chased after him, calling out, "Your Highness! Your Highness!"
"ah!"
With a scream, Murong Kui fell to the ground.
Ye Lisheng stood coldly in front of her, making no attempt to help her up.
"Your Highness, Miss Qiu Kui is getting married soon. We should be happy for her!"
He flung her hand away, his eyes chillingly cold, and said, word by word, "The day Princess Murong gets married, I will be happy for you!"
She paused for a few seconds, then said, "Murong's only husband is you, Your Highness!"
"Hmph!" He scoffed, leaving her with his retreating figure.
She was furious, her teeth itching with anger, when Prince Yu approached her with an exquisite gift box and said, "Murong! This is something I prepared especially for you!"
To everyone's surprise, she didn't even glance at him, and coldly said, "I appreciate Your Highness's kindness!"
Prince Yu ignored her cold tone and said to himself, "This is something I specially asked someone to bring back for you from Cangling. I'm sure you'll like it!"
"Cangling!"
"hehe!"
She laughed, a laugh filled with utter desolation: "Haven't you already vandalized my home? What is there left for me to be happy about!"
"Murong, please don't do this!"
"Prince Yu should go back soon! It won't look good if someone sees this!"
He stood there for a long time, watching her departing figure. The tenderness of the past few days felt like a dream, one that he was still immersed in and unwilling to wake up from.
He chuckled to himself, "She ultimately refuses to even glance at me!"
