Return to the palace?
Hearing the guard's words, Bei Cangling was obviously stunned. Although they had not fallen out with the First Prince, why would they be so foolish as to return to the palace at this time and send a sheep back to the tiger's den?
Yes, foster father already issued an order last night, announcing that he would conduct a Groom Search Competition for you on the day of his birth.
Bei Cangji glanced at Ye Dongfeng, and saw that he was also clearly stunned, and couldn't help but feel proud of himself. In his heart, he had already treated Ye Dongfeng as Bei Cangling's sweetheart.
Groom Search Competition?
Bei Cangling and Ye Dongfeng blurted out at the same time. The Northern Heavens Emperor had already been imprisoned by the First Prince, so this order was clearly given by the First Prince.
The two of them looked at each other and had already thought of the answer.
Seeing the two of them like this, Bei Cangji's heart became even happier, as though he was splitting up a pair of lovebirds with his own hands, and laughed:
Hehe, this matter has already spread throughout the entire North Cang Empire, and even Great Chu has sent people over. At that time, Third Princess might really marry off your Great Chu, and fix the gap between the two nations …
And someone from the Great Chu?
After hearing this news, Bei Cangling was completely stunned. Although this Great Chu was adjacent to the North Cang Empire, because of what happened back then, it had already been a long time since she had contact with North Cang Empire.
What's wrong? And what about this Great Chu? Ye Dongfeng noticed that Bei Cangling was abnormal and immediately whispered in her ear.
When Ye Dongfeng spoke, the air that he blew gently caressed Bei Cangling's ears, causing his face to turn slightly pink.
It's nothing, it's just that the First Prince's birth mother, Chu Fei, was once a princess of the Great Chu. Back then, when the Dark Moon Empire went to war with the Great Chu, Chu Fei asked my royal father to send troops to help his. Bei Cangling regained her composure, and said softly, with a hint of melancholy.
But your royal father didn't send any troops? Ye Dongfeng asked.
Yes, I don't know why royal father is like this either. I only know that in a fit of anger, Chu Fei only brought a few guards with her before running back to the Great Chu. Two months later, the news of Chu Fei's death arrived.
Bei Cangling sighed and continued, "Later on, even though the Great Chu forced back the Dark Moon Empire, the relationship between us and the Great Chu dropped to the freezing point, and from then on, the relationship between Big Brother and royal father became bad …
Bei Cangling finished speaking of the royal family's secret scripture in one breath, and her mood was a little low. Very clearly, she had some opinions on what her father had done.
Ye Dongfeng was not too interested in the matters of the Emperor Wang Family, the corners of his mouth twitched, from the information Bei Cangling revealed just now, he had faintly grasped onto something.
There had never been such a coincidence in this world when someone suddenly came to participate in the Groom Search Competition, as well as Great Chu that had not been in contact with each other for a long time.
Thinking about how his North Cang Empire had been exterminated in his previous life, Ye Dongfeng had already guessed a bit of the First Prince's plan.
Hehe, he is a bold person, but I wonder if his heart is also that thin?
Ye Dongfeng's face revealed an enlightened smile. Although the two of them were enemies now, towards the First Prince, who he had never met, he couldn't help but feel a tinge of admiration. Only someone crazy to the point of not taking the throne, but taking revenge.
Although he did not know exactly how the First Prince would cause his entire North Cang Empire to go extinct, this matter was definitely related to the Groom Search Competition as well as his Great Chu.
Since he already knew the other party's goal, it would be best to remain calm and wait patiently.
Once he made his decision, Ye Dongfeng immediately turned to Bei Cangji and said: It's no fun, Third Princess is living comfortably outside, I won't consider returning to the Imperial Palace temporarily … At the very least, you are not qualified to invite Third Princess back to the Imperial Palace!
As he spoke, Ye Dongfeng's eyes showed undisguised disdain.
You...
Bei Cangji was so angry that he could not even speak properly, he had never been looked down upon so much before, but, even after experiencing how powerful Ye Dongfeng was, he did not even dare to breathe out, and only glared at Ye Dongfeng fiercely.
I wonder if I'm qualified enough?
Just as Bei Cangji was at a loss as to what to do, a slightly gloomy voice slowly sounded from outside the inn.
Looking up, he saw a handsome young man with a feathered crown on his head slowly walking in.
Northern Heavens Xuan!
Seeing the newcomer, Bei Cangling was slightly stunned. She did not think that the brother who planned all of this would actually come here personally.
In that instant, she was at a loss of what to do. Although she hated her elder brother to the bones, she had only been afraid of two people ever since she was young.
One of them was her extremely imposing royal father, and the other was the person who rarely spoke, and was so silent that it was even somewhat scary, her big brother who was in front of her.
However, in the blink of an eye, she had already regained her composure and looked at Ye Dongfeng joyfully.
Ye Dongfeng naturally knew what Bei Cangling was thinking, she obviously wanted him to take action, and kill the Northern Heavens Xuan himself. However, would the person who planned all of this happen here without any precautions?
Ye Dongfeng felt that Northern Heavens Xuan was not such a stupid person, he immediately shook his head, signalling Bei Cangling not to act rashly.
From the very beginning, Ye Dongfeng had relied on his keen perception to sense that there was a powerful aura outside the door, and his words to Bei Cangji were precisely aimed to lure the person outside.
At this moment, although the First Prince was smiling, his smile did not give off any feeling of warmth. Instead, it gave off a sinister and cold feeling.
Big Brother Ye, this brother's smile is so fake, I don't like him. Xiao Ya gently pulled on Ye Dongfeng's sleeve, and said softly.
If that's the case, then let's find a chance to smash his face, so that he can no longer smirk. Ye Dongfeng smiled.
Xiao Ya revealed a satisfied smile, and nodded: Okay.
As he passed by Bei Cangji and the rest, he looked deeply at Ye Dongfeng who was conversing with Xiao Ya for a bit, and then shifted his gaze onto Bei Cangling. As if nothing had happened, he laughed and said:
Little sister, since you've returned, why haven't you returned to the palace? royal father misses you very much.
royal father … How is royal father? The moment she heard the Northern Heavens Profound mentioning the Northern Heavens Emperor, Bei Cangling couldn't help but become somewhat excited.
Hehe, royal father is doing very well, I just missed you a little. Why didn't you especially send me to bring you back to the palace? Bei Cang Xuan's expression did not change, and continued to laugh.
This... Bei Cangling didn't expect that the Northern Heavens Divine Palace would directly bring out the Northern Heavens Emperor, and for a moment, he didn't know how to refute it. She wasn't going back at this time, but if she didn't, she might get an unfilial title from the Northern Heavens Profound Emperor.
In the end, they could only turn their pleading gazes towards Ye Dongfeng.
