Revenge of the Sixth Young Lady

Chapter 290 – Find Out Who On Earth That Woman Was

The other three heirs-apparent had all grown up in the capital cities of their dukedoms. Of course, they also had their own childhood sweethearts. However, in order to marry the princess, no one got married before coming to the capital. The meaning behind this was clear: to show respect for the princess.

But everyone knew that no matter who married the princess, it was impossible for him to have only the princess in his heart. Each of them must have their own so-called childhood sweetheart. However, although everyone was well aware of this matter, no one would openly bring it up in public, especially in the Crown Prince Mansion. Yan Huaijing had not married the princess yet, but he actually brought his childhood sweetheart out. This made the other heirs-apparent present speculate.

What was Yan Huaijing trying to do?

Could it be that he did not want to marry the princess?

However, on second thought, all the other three heirs-apparent knew it was impossible. If Yan Huaijing did not want to marry the princess, he would have already left the capital.

Nevertheless, he didn’t behave like he really wanted to marry the princess. Otherwise, he would not have brought his childhood sweetheart out in such a manner at this time.

None of them believed the so-called “surprise meeting” as was said by Yan Huaijing.

Yan Huaijing smiled and broke the strange silence. He stretched out a hand and flicked it on the table. “Master Fenghe, let’s begin!”

“Alright, let’s begin!” Master Fenghe turned his attention away from Yan Huaijing and said.

Wei Yuewu’s heart trembled. Not knowing what to do next, she looked at Yan Huaijing hesitantly.

“It’s fine!” Even though she was wearing a veil, Yan Huaijing could still sense her hesitation. His long and narrow eyes were suffused with a dense glow, and there was a trace of a smile in them.

“What… am I going to do?” Wei Yuewu was really uncertain. Looking at the venue set up by the eunuchs present, she did not know what to do for a moment.

“You… don’t need to do anything. Just sit quietly!” Yan Huaijing smiled, his white and slender hand holding Wei Yuewu’s hand, not showing the slightest intention of letting go of her.

“You guys start first!” Yan Huaijing raised his voice and said to the other three.

“Alright, then I will be the first!” Chu Fangnan immediately responded and clapped his hands. The four beauties behind him immediately bowed to him respectfully and then went around to the front of the table.

There was a carpet on the ground. The four beauties stepped forward one by one and stood on the four corners of the carpet. Then, they started to dance in an enchanting manner. It was actually an extremely moving performance of dance in the chorus.

The women brought by Qi Yunhao were the next to perform. Two of the four beauties performed the dance while the other two played musical instruments. The music was pleasing to the ears and the dance was graceful.

The last to perform were the two beauties brought by Lu Yeli. These two beauties each had a cold temperament similar to Lu Yeli. This made the two of them look more heroic. They performed a set of sword dance.

After the performance was over, there was a round of applause.

“Heir-apparent of Yan…” Master Fenghe turned to Yan Huaijing with a smile.

It was now Yan Huaijing’s turn.

Wei Yuewu moved uneasily. After all, she still had no confidence. She was inexplicably brought here, and Yan Huaijing did not say anything to her. However, under the current situation, she was expected to perform, but she wasn’t prepared at all.

If Yan Huaijing really wanted her to perform, what should she choose to do?

Wei Yuewu was speechless for a moment, and she quickly thought about whether there was something which she was adept at but was not particularly eye-catching!

“No need!” Yan Huaijing’s words caused the expression on everyone’s face to stiffen.

“Why did you say that, Heir-apparent of Yan?” Master Fenghe’s face turned cold. Even with his well-controlled mentality, he was also a bit angry. The matter was brought up by Yan Huaijing, but in the end, he did not take it seriously.

“She’s sick!” Yan Huaijing exerted force in his hand, and Wei Yuewu’s body involuntarily leaned against him.

Wei Yuewu wanted to struggle, but she heard a soft voice in her ear. “Don’t move if you don’t want anyone to know who you are!”

This voice was very gentle, but the meaning of threat in it was enough to make Wei Yuewu stay motionless in Yan Huaijing’s arms.

Although she gritted her teeth in hatred, she did not dare to move recklessly, afraid that she would anger this Asura King.

Wei Yuewu had never felt that she could ignore Yan Huaijing’s threat, especially now that he had placed a hand near her veil.

Wei Yuewu had no choice but to bury her head into his arms, trying to avoid his slender hand on her veil.

However, she couldn’t take it anymore and simply bit him hard on his chest.

However, the winter clothes were thick. Even if Wei Yuewu used all of her strength, she could not really injure Yan Huaijing.

However, Yan Huaijing was both surprised and pleased that Wei Yuewu dared to bite him in his arms. His hand slid from her veil to her back and gently hugged her, letting her lean close to him in his arms.

In the eyes of outsiders, their secret strife seemed to be very romantic. As Yan Huaijing pulled, the other threw herself into his arms. No matter how one looked at it, their actions were full of deep affection and looked extremely natural.

Lu Yeli’s last trace of doubt disappeared. It seemed that the woman next to Yan Huaijing was indeed his childhood sweetheart. Well, it was reasonable for her to appear here because she was unhappy that Yan Huaijing wanted to marry the princess and therefore deliberately followed him to the capital without telling him!

However, this was the imperial palace. The two of them were so intimate that it made the other people present look down on this so-called young aristocratic lady.

If she was really a well-educated lady from a noble family, how could she act so intimately in front of so many outsiders?

“She is sick?” Feeling that he had been ignored, Chu Fangnan couldn’t bear it and asked with a sneer. “Heir-apparent of Yan, don’t you think that these words are ridiculous? If she is sick, why didn’t you take another one with you?”

“I don’t want to.” Yan Huaijing said lazily. His handsome eyes were filled with arrogance as he looked at Chu Fangnan. His voice was indifferent and cold. “Even if she isn’t sick, she doesn’t need to perform for anyone. Why should my woman perform for others?”

These words, coupled with his gentle and refined manner, had a strange sense of contradiction, but they easily made people feel the fierceness and care in them.

Who exactly was this woman that she was actually able to make Yan Huaijing protect her so much, to the extent that he didn’t hesitate to offend everyone present?

Everyone couldn’t help but look at each other.

In a tall building of the Crown Prince Mansion, the teacup in the Third Princess’ hand was smashed to the ground, making a crisp sound of shattering.

Her beautiful face that had always maintained a gentle look almost got stiffened and distorted. “Find out who that bitch is!”

“Third Princess, don’t worry. Maybe it’s not like what you think!” Standing by her side, Jing Wenyan, who was accompanying her, hurriedly reached out to stop her and said. “How can someone like the Heir-apparent of Yan casually care about a woman!”

So this woman was definitely not simple!

This was what Jing Wenyan wanted to tell the Third Princess. However, the Third Princess was so angry that her face turned livid. Her hand that was placed on the table involuntarily spasmed. Her lips trembled twice but she wasn’t able to utter a word.

After a long while, the Third Princess finally said, “Heir… Heir-apparent of the Duke of Yan State, you are too presumptuous!”

“Third Princess, the heir-apparent has always been so domineering!” Jing Wenyan thought for a moment and said directly to the Third Princess. She was also one of the few people who knew Yan Huaijing’s true face.

She knew that the seemingly gentle and refined Heir-apparent of the Duke of Yan State had always been wearing a mask. Back then, after exhausting all her means to beg him, the only thing she got was his cold, refined, and jade-like indifference.

Jing Wenyan didn’t believe that the Third Princess enjoyed any advantage over her except for her status.

The Third Princess was not a reckless person. After hearing Jing Wenyan’s words, although her face was still alternating between green and white, she sat down again. Her eyes fell on the slender woman in Yan Huaijing’s arms. Her eyes flashed with a trace of fierceness as she made a decision.

The Third Princess calmed her breathing and looked straight at Jing Wenyan. “Wenyan, I will consider your suggestion. Since the Heir-apparent of Yan already has such a woman by his side, if I want to win his heart, I must find another stunning beauty to marry along with me. Wenyan, are you really not going to help me?”

Her gaze was burning!

Jing Wenyan’s heart skipped a beat. She hurriedly bowed to the Third Princess respectfully, and a bitter smile appeared on her face. “Third Princess, Wenyan doesn’t dare to have any improper thoughts. There isn’t much interaction between me and the heir-apparent. The so-called marriage contract between the two families was just my father’s wishful thinking. You also saw it for yourself. If the heir-apparent had any pity for me, my father wouldn’t have ended up in his current situation!”

“Wenyan, I don’t have any other intention. I just want to ask about your feelings. But if you are unwilling, who else can help me?” The Third Princess kept staring at Jing Wenyan who had quite a natural expression on her face. When she mentioned Yan Huaijing, she only smiled bitterly. In particular, she also mentioned her father, the Duke of Jing, whose territory had been seized by Yan Huaijing.

If Yan Huaijing had even the slightest bit of pity for Jing Wenyan, she would not have become down and out like this. Thinking of this, the Third Princess felt Jing Wenyan’s words were quite plausible!

It seemed that even if Jing Wenyan was interested in Yan Huaijing, Yan Huaijing didn’t have any interest in Jing Wenyan.

As the number one beauty in the State of Jing who was reportedly to be once engaged with Yan Huaijing, Jing Wenyan gave the Third Princess a lot of psychological pressure.

Sensing that the Third Princess’ attitude had softened, Jing Wenyan secretly heaved a sigh of relief. The Third Princess was not the Fourth Princess who was easy to deal with, but she felt that Third Princess was the one who was most likely to marry Yan Huaijing.

Sensing the Third Princess’ anxiety, Jing Wenyan smiled. In a seemingly inadvertent manner, she mentioned the name that had been repeated in her heart several times, “Third Princess, do you know about Sixth Miss Wei of the mansion of Marquis Hua Yang?”

“Wei Yuewu?” The Third Princess was stunned for a moment. The appearance of the young girl with delicate facial features with a hint of childishness flashed before her eyes. Her eyes could not help but sink. “Why did you mention her?”
