Demon Doctor Wild Concubine
The gaze of the onlookers followed her soft voice to the bridal sedan, each guessing in their hearts what actions this young lady of the Shen family would take.
"Miss, look..."
Li Guanjia stepped aside, making way for Shen Yunxi, and revealed the dog hole in front of her, with a lingering anger on his face.
Shen Yunxi raised his hand and stopped him from continuing, comforting him with a smile, "Li Guanjia, don't get angry, there must be some misunderstanding in this."
Li Guanjia didn't understand why Shen Yuncreek would say such a thing, but since she said it, there must be her reason or solution.
He nodded slightly and stood quietly beside him, waiting for it to be over.
Because of her words, the crowd whispered again. Shen Yunxi calmly swept a glance at the crowd, took a step forward, and smiled at the corner of his mouth to Chu Han: "Chu Guanjia, I have a question to ask you."
Chu Han slightly nodded her head, "I'm flattered by your request, Miss Shen. Please feel free to ask me any questions."
She glanced at the dog hole with a red ribbon hanging from it, and her sharp eyes flashed with a hint of sarcasm. Then she spoke softly: "May I ask, is the imperial decree ordering me to marry a dog?"
As soon as this was said, the crowd suddenly burst into an uproar, and no one expected Shen Yunxi to ask such a question.
To know that what she said was not someone else, but the war god Feng Qingchen of the Da Tian Qi Wang Dynasty, who was born with a bloodthirsty and ruthless nature!
If this were said to anyone else, they would be furious, let alone Feng Qingchen.
Even if she could enter the Rui Wang Fu with ease today, this wedding night would probably be unbearable.
The people present couldn't help but admire the wisdom of Shen Da Xiaojie, while secretly worrying for her. If she were to become the third queen to die on her wedding night due to this illness, it would be utterly unbearable.
Shen Yunxi's words left Chu Han stunned, this question was indeed extremely bold and courageous. However, some people might not be pleased if they heard this.
Ji Chu didn't respond immediately, Shen Yunxi added: "If it's the emperor's will, I won't say anything else and just enter the Wang Fu from here."
Chu Han secretly bit her tongue, Oh king, this is really lifting a stone and hitting one's own foot.
He glanced at the people around him. Now this stone still had to be moved by him, otherwise it would be a good topic for gossip after dinner.
Although he has already tarnished his reputation with whatever he says, he still wants to salvage the dignity of the Wang family as much as possible.
Chu Han forced a smile on her lips and said, "Of course, the emperor's edict is to marry into our Wang family."
Upon hearing this, Shen Yunxi lowered her eyelids and hid the satisfied look in her eyes. She then raised her head to glance at the dog hole again, but her eyes had already turned cold, "Since that's the case, this dog hole..."
At this point, Shen Yunxi stopped and looked up at Chu Han.
As clever as Chu Han, he naturally understood that Shen Yunxi's pause was to give him an opportunity to step down.
He immediately took over the conversation and said, "As Miss Shen just said, this is just a misunderstanding. The king has long heard of Miss Shen's intelligence, so what happened earlier was just the king testing Miss Shen, with no other intention. I hope Miss Shen won't mind my family's king."
Shen Yunxi's lips curled slightly, "How could that be? As the War God of the Great Tianqi Dynasty, who has fought across the battlefields, whether it is marrying him or being tested by him, it is my honor as Shen Yunxi. Moreover, Housekeeper Chu has already explained the reasons behind this matter clearly, if I were to continue to argue with His Highness, wouldn't that make me seem too petty? Housekeeper Chu, don't you think so?"
Her voice was soft and still quiet, allowing people to hear her emotions.
It is just that, imperceptibly, it also exudes an aura of intimidation that cannot be ignored.
Chu Han lowered her eyes, bowed her head and apologized, "Yes, Miss Shen is right, I was too narrow-minded."
Although he said so, in his heart, he had a different opinion about Shen Yunxi.
She had just finished speaking, and on the surface, every word was in praise of Feng Qingchen. However, he detected a hint of sarcasm. Yet, her words and expression were so perfectly controlled that it was like four ounces moving a thousand pounds - not letting anyone else notice anything out of place, only making him, as a member of the royal family, feel uncomfortable, yet unable to refute, and could only secretly seethe with anger.
Thinking of this, I recall that she intentionally paused earlier. It seems that Shen Yunxi is not actually afraid of Feng Qingchen, but rather, she doesn't want to give herself unnecessary trouble due to the emperor's decree, so she deliberately gave him a way out.
If it's really as he thought, then both he and Wang Ye have underestimated Miss Shen before their eyes.
But now is not the time to verify his idea.
Just as Chu Han was about to speak, he heard Duan Li's housekeeper say: "Chu Housekeeper, since this is a misunderstanding, let my young lady enter the mansion quickly. If we delay any further, I fear we will miss the auspicious hour."
Chu Huan turned her head and glanced at Li Guanjia, whose eyebrows were raised with a smile, then stepped aside to make way for Shen Yunxi, saying: "Your Highness, please."
Words and deeds all show respect.
The title and appellation have both made a 180-degree turn.
Shen Yunxi nodded slightly, a faint smile playing on her lips, and turned around, with Shuang'er's support, she stepped back into the wedding sedan chair.
Li Guan watched with satisfaction as the sedan curtain closed, his young mistress was indeed formidable. The performance she had just put on had earned his genuine admiration. Once he returned to the Shen estate, he would have to tell Master Shen all about today's events in detail, and let him share in the joy.
Although the young lady almost drowned in the lotus pond, she has now turned misfortune into good fortune and not only is no longer timid and weak, but also so clever and resourceful.
As the sedan chair was lifted, he slightly restrained the triumphant expression on his face, adjusted his collar, followed the sedan chair and strode towards the main gate of the Wang Mansion.
As the crowd watched the departing flower sedan, they mostly showed a look of admiration. This counterattack was indeed beautiful! But afterwards, thinking back to the different experiences of the three Shui Wangfei after entering the palace, they couldn't help but feel a sense of regret.
……
The Wangfu building upstairs.
Feng Qingchen stood proudly with her hands clasped loosely behind her back, the veins on the back of her hand bulging slightly.
Long Wu, kneeling on one knee on the ground, couldn't see his expression at this moment, but he could feel the chill that permeated his entire body, almost freezing people to three feet.
It wasn't until a while later that Feng Qingchen's cold and somber voice sounded, "It seems that this king has underestimated her."
A low tone, exuding a sense of danger that sends shivers down one's spine.
Long Wu did not speak, but instead lowered his head even further. After a while, he said, "Your Highness, I have another matter to report."
"Speak!" Feng Qingchi's icy voice was devoid of any fluctuation.
The gate guard handed a letter to me just now. With that said, he pulled out the letter from his pocket and handed it over to Feng Qingchen.
Feng Qingchen stood majestically, tore open the envelope, and his sword-like eyebrows furrowed instantly. He let out a cold snort: "Someone dares to openly provoke me, trying to steal military secrets! Doesn't know life or death!... Long Wu, go down and make arrangements! We must capture the incoming person!"
No matter whether what was said in the letter is true or not, he must take precautions against it. He would never allow any opportunity for military secrets to be stolen!
"Yes! Your Highness, I will go immediately." Long Wu departed after receiving his orders.
Feng Qingchen stood still, her eyes narrowed, gazing into the distance, her pupils dark and unfathomable. The hand holding the paper behind her back had bulging veins!
……
The flower sedan chair fell in front of Rui Wang Fu's gate once again. There was no sign of Feng Qingchen in front of the gate.
Shen Yunxi stepped out of the flower sedan chair with the support of Shuang'er.
"The princess, the king received an urgent military report early this morning and went to the barracks. Today, it's likely that the princess will have to trouble herself to enter the mansion alone. After the king returns to the mansion, he will certainly give the princess an explanation."
Chu Hanwei lowered her eyelids and explained why she hadn't seen Feng Qingchen's figure.
