"Brother, let me listen too. I won't tell on you," Princess Ruchen said coquettishly as she blinked her eyes.
Su Yu smiled lightly. "You can listen if you want. Maybe she and I will talk about flirting with Feng Luan and Mount Wu. Do you still want to listen?"
"Ah!" Princess Ruchen screamed, embarrassed and angry. She stamped her feet. "You're so naughty! You're still laughing at me! "
That day at the Benevolence Palace, Princess Ruchen muttered the meaning of the eight characters with a confused look.
When she returned, she was immediately lectured by Emperor Wuhen, who told her what they meant.
Only then did she realize that she had made a fool of herself at the Benevolence Palace, and she had no idea what they meant.
Now, hearing Su Yu's teasing, she blushed again. She was so angry that she punched him and ran away.
A moment later, North Gazing Pearl and North Gazing Pavilion came to visit.
"Greetings, Sixth Prince." North Gazing Pearl and North Gazing Pavilion bowed in unison.
Su Yu looked straight ahead. "Is there anything you need from me?"
North Gazing Pavilion bowed. "Father and grandfather were ordered by the Emperor to return to the fief in a hurry. The two of us, brother and sister, would like to express our gratitude to Sixth Prince on behalf of the Beixin family."
As he spoke, he took out some gifts.
"These are some specialties of the Beixin land. I hope Sixth Prince will like them," North Gazing said slowly as he put down the gifts in his hands.
Su Yu nodded. "Thank you. Put them down."
North Gazing rolled his eyes. "I still have matters to attend to, so I'll take my leave first."
North Gazing Pearl stood up as well, but North Gazing signaled for her to stay.
North Gazing Pearl pointed at her own nose. You want me to stay?
Nodding his head, North Gazing Pavilion left the room, closing the door behind him with a meaningful smile on his face.
Only the two of them were left in the room. North Gazing Pearl felt uneasy. She looked down at the tips of her shoes, not knowing what to say.
"Do you really want to marry me?" Su Yu looked at her and asked.
North Gazing Pearl subconsciously puffed out her chest and shook her head. "Of course not!"
"Mm, I have the same intention." Su Yu nodded. "If that's the case, you can disappear for now. That way, I don't have to marry you, and you don't have to marry me."
North Gazing Pearl frowned. Was he so unwilling to marry her?
How was she lacking? Even if he had abnormal feelings for Bei Wang Chen in the past, it had never crossed any ethical line. What right do you have to look down on me?
"That's easy for you to say. After I go missing, what will happen to the Beixin bloodline? Dongfang Xia is temperamental, who knows what he will do? "North Gazing Pearl said angrily.
Su Yu was indifferent. Her reaction was within reason.
After remaining silent for a long while, Su Yu said, "North Gazing Pearl, no matter how you felt in the past, you chose to marry me against your own will. But, I can't give you a future, and you made a choice that you shouldn't have."
He looked straight into the eyes of the North Gazing Pearl and said deeply, "In the near future, I will either die accidentally, disappear from the world, or the title of the Sixth Prince will be removed. In short, it won't end well. You should be mentally prepared."
He had a feeling that Dongfang Xia would deal with him.
The North Gazing Pearl's choice to marry him was perhaps the biggest mistake of her life.
"What do you mean?" The other party's tone was sincere. The North Gazing Pearl's anger subsided and she asked in confusion.
"You will understand when the time comes," Su Yu sighed softly as he couldn't tell her the truth.
The North Gazing Pearl had a feeling of being kept in the dark, which was very uncomfortable. After thinking it over, she somewhat understood Su Yu's intention. She said coldly, "Humph! You just want to go missing and run away from the wedding to find your three female companions, don't you? "
Su Yu furrowed his brows. Three female companions?
When he came to the Dayu Empire, the only female friend of the same age as him was Princess Ruchen.
"Who are you talking about?" Su Yu asked.
The North Gazing Pearl snorted. "Think about it yourself."
After saying that, she flicked her sleeves and left.
Su Yu was left puzzled.
Three female companions …
Is it Xia Jingyu and Shengge? But who is the third one? It doesn't seem like he is talking about the two of them.
The wedding was approaching day by day. In addition to training, Su Yu also started to investigate some puzzling things in the past.
In the evening, Bei Wangchen came to visit.
Now, he had been appointed as the commander of the imperial city guards by imperial decree. He was in charge of the safety of the imperial family and enjoyed a high status, which was even higher than the Ten Great Conferred Kings.
It could be said that the bloodline of Beixin had profited from a disaster.
"Your Highness, I have found the information you wanted." Bei Wangchen still found it difficult to face Su Yu.
It was difficult for him to associate Su Yu, who seemed to be a peak overlord, with the strong man who had crushed him to the point that he couldn't even fight back.
Su Yu took a stack of information from him and nodded. "Thank you."
"Don't mention it. Compared to the fact that you saved the entire bloodline of Beixin, this is just a small favor. Your Highness, I will take my leave now. "Bei Wangchen came and went like the wind. He was in a much better mood when he left.
He had more or less returned the favor he owed.
Su Yu opened the information and read it in detail. He raised his eyebrows slightly.
He had asked Bei Wangchen to help him get the information from the Rewards Pavilion because he wanted to know why he had a bounty placed on his head twice.
The second bounty was for Dongfang Shenlei.
She mistakenly thought that Su Yu had killed Xie Lang, so she was looking for Su Yu to take revenge.
However, the first bounty was suddenly cut off midway. The person who had placed the bounty had taken the initiative to withdraw it.
As Su Yu stared at the information on it, a strange look appeared in his eyes.
As expected, the Dongfang Divine Tears were not the ones on the two bounties.
When the first reward was announced, Su Yu was still in the Tao Tie Cage, unable to escape.
Therefore, the first person who offered a bounty for him was definitely not Dongfang Shen Lei. He had not even appeared in the Absolute Beginning Realm at that time. There was no enmity between them. It was definitely not her.
In the past, he took it for granted that it was her both times. Now that he was free, he thought about it carefully and realized that there was more to it than met the eye.
Now that he checked, there was indeed a problem.
"Who is looking for me?" Su Yu was secretly surprised. At that time, he was still in the Tao Tie Cage, so who in the Great Beginning Realm would know him?
Unfortunately, a long time ago, the person who posted the bounty had already taken the initiative to withdraw the person who posted the bounty.
A trace of doubt lingered in his chest.
Time ticked by.
The news of the engagement between the Sixth Prince and the North Pronged Pearl spread like wildfire.
The government offices of the major fiefdoms, cities, and towns began to hang festive decorations.
The Imperial City was even more so.
After being informed by the Imperial Guards, all shops along the way were to hang colorful ribbons, firecrackers, and red lanterns.
The entire Imperial City was bustling with activity. As far as the eye could see, it was a sea of joyous red.
"Shopkeeper Li." North Wangting came to the tailor's shop where the groom's clothes were custom-made. "Is the bride's phoenix robe ready?"
"Haha, it's ready a long time ago. How could I dare to delay the young princess's wedding?" Shopkeeper Li took out a space storage device and handed it to North Wangting.
North Wangting examined it carefully and confirmed that there were no problems. "These are the remaining divine stones, please count them."
He placed the bag containing the divine stones on the counter.
"Mr. North Wangting, you must be joking. Your presence brings light to my humble shop. How could I not trust you?" Shopkeeper Li did not even look at it before putting the small bag away.
North Wangting nodded and walked back to his temporary lodging.
Shopkeeper Li smiled and watched him disappear from his sight. His smile slowly faded and was replaced by a sly smile.
Two days later, the day of the wedding finally arrived.
In the Sixth Prince's mansion.
Princess Ruchen and Emperor Wuhen helped Su Yu put on the groom's clothes. He was already handsome, but now he looked even more spirited.
"The most handsome groom of the Dayu Empire has been born." Princess Ruchen's eyes were twinkling like stars. "I want to marry you. What should I do?"
Su Yu was not in a good mood. He calmly said, "Alright, I'll report to the emperor immediately and replace you. Will that do?"
"Haha, I don't have your guts to challenge my father," Princess Ruchen said with an embarrassed smile. Princess Ruchen smiled in embarrassment. However, when she looked at the groom before her, she did feel somewhat upset in her heart.
She had grown up alone in the royal family. Her brothers had not been able to give her any warmth, but Su Yu, the fake prince, had.
If it were possible, she would be very willing to be with him for real, whether as brother and sister or husband and wife.
Now that he was going to marry North Wangzhu, she felt an inexplicable discomfort in her heart. It was as if her favorite thing had been snatched away.
She, who had been in high spirits, felt a little downcast.
As if he could read her mind, Emperor Wuhen sighed quietly. "Alright, it's time to go to the Supreme Ling Hall. The young princess of North Wangzhu will be here soon."
Su Yu looked at the mirror and sighed inwardly. He had been looking for a chance to escape, but Dongfang Xia had been watching him too closely.
Now, he had been forced into a corner!
With some difficulty, Su Yu arrived at the Supreme Ling Hall, accompanied by Princess Ruchen, Emperor Wuhen, and a large number of palace maids.
Dongfang Xia was in high spirits. His face was glowing as he sat in the chief seat.
Outside the hall was North Wangzhu, who had just been delivered by Bei Xin's family. She was dressed in a splendid phoenix robe. It was luxurious and well-tailored, and it accentuated North Wangzhu's slender figure.
A large red veil covered her delicate and beautiful face. She was only waiting for Su Yu to remove the veil when it was time to consummate their marriage.
"The auspicious hour has arrived. Let the ceremony begin! The bride and groom pay their respects to His Majesty. "
The two of them entered together. One was handsome, and the other was exquisite. They looked like a perfect match made in heaven.
The First Prince, the Second Prince, the Third Prince, the Fourth Prince, the Fifth Prince, and Princess Ruchen all had different looks in their eyes.
The First Prince was the most embarrassed. He was obviously gnashing his teeth with hatred, but he had to pretend to be happy.
He watched as the two of them walked past him and came before Dongfang Xia. North Wangzhu offered him a cup of tea.
Dongfang Xia accepted it with a smile. He pursed his lips and said, "Wangzhu, from today on, you are a member of the royal family. Here, this is the money for your tea."
He took out a small bag.
Under the cover of the red veil, North Wangzhu blushed. "Thank you, father."
She took it, lowered her head, and glanced at it. Her expression changed.
There were a total of one hundred dark-colored God Stones lying quietly on the ground.
Top-grade divine stones!
According to the exchange rate, it was a million divine stones.
The money for this tea was incomparably generous!
Dongfang Xia was about to say something, but his gaze suddenly froze. He stared at the phoenix robe on North Wangzhu, and his eyes narrowed. "Your phoenix robe is interesting."
