Chapter 545: Your Highness is a very handsome man, but Your Majesty is still charming too (1)
The spring sunshine sprinkled gently on the bluestone road. Yan Chen shook off the group of eunuchs behind him and changed into the clothes of an ordinary official's son, wearing a black brocade robe and a gold and jade belt around his waist. He was leaning against the window on the second floor of Fengyaju, sipping Mingqian Longjing tea nonchalantly.
Because envoys from all parties had arrived, the entire street downstairs was bustling with people. Various carriages were crawling on the ground like turtles, and from time to time, the sound of the coachmen cursing could be heard.
Suddenly a breeze blew by, rolling up the curtain of one of the carriages.
Yan Chen glanced at it unintentionally, and the next second, the teacup in his hand stopped in the air.
The young man in the carriage was about sixteen or seventeen years old. He was wearing a unique costume of the Miao area, and the silver ornaments on his body were shining with fine silver light.
The boy was extremely handsome, with eyebrows like distant mountains, eyes like rippling autumn water, a high nose bridge, and bright red lips. The most charming thing was the cinnabar lightly dotted between his eyebrows, which instantly gave the boy a charming look that did not suit his age.
For the first time, Yan Chen realized so deeply that his vision was far superior to that of ordinary people. He could even see the fatigue in the boy's eyes and the hair he was twisting in his hands.
The young man seemed to notice something and glanced sideways. When their eyes met, Yan Chen felt his heart skip a beat. Before he could look again, the carriage the young man was riding in had already passed Fengyaju.
Looking at the back of the carriage, Yan Chen felt a little disappointed, but fortunately the young man must be an envoy coming to attend the banquet. As for the Miao costumes...
Yan Chen's fingertips unconsciously stroked the edge of the teacup, and he suddenly remembered that there seemed to be the Holy Son of Miao among the Miao envoys this time, which was very consistent with the young man.
"Don't be fooled by his appearance. He is the culprit that will cause chaos in the world!" An illusory voice sounded in his mind, bringing Yan Chen back to his senses.
Yan Chen frowned and said nothing.
Tian Dao was anxious. "What I said was true. According to my deduction, this visit by all parties is the beginning. All parties came to this banquet with a purpose. Miaojiang has lived in a small place for many years, and they have long been unwilling to be content with the status quo. This time they brought a saint son and a saint daughter with the purpose of seeking marriage."
Yan Chen's fingertips moved slightly, and ripples appeared in his heart.
Tiandao has known him for a long time, but Yan Chen never shows his emotions, so he really can't figure out what he is thinking.
"He will be liked by many powerful people including you and Yan Sui in the future. He will then take advantage of your feelings and maneuver among you to seek benefits for Miaojiang, causing chaos in the world. Your Great Mo kingdom will also be overthrown by him!"
"Don't take it lightly. He is more powerful than you think. It will be too late when he grows up. You'd better take preemptive action now!" Tiandao said earnestly. If he were a human, he would have talked until his mouth ran dry.
Yan Chen put down the teacup and said calmly: "Don't you think it's too late now?"
Tian Dao was stunned, "What do you mean?"
Yan Chen lowered his eyes, meaning that he liked the little guy very much now and was no longer willing to take action. As for the Great Mo River Mountain, what did it have to do with him?
However, he did not tell Tian Dao, and only said: "It's just a child, what kind of storm can it cause? There is no need to scare him. If he is disobedient, you can lock him up and educate him properly."
After all, this is the way of heaven. Who knows if he has any shameful means? We still have to appease him verbally.
Tiandao:? ? ?
Is that so? But when did Yan Chen have such compassion?
Heaven is suspicious, but has no evidence.
Although he is the way of heaven, he really has no way to deal with Yan Chen and can only persuade himself to believe in Yan Chen.
Of course, Shen Zuixue, who had already left because of the discord between Yan Chen and Tiandao, didn’t know that he had already arrived at the post station.
Before I even entered the door, I heard a voice saying "Brother".
The girl's voice is cute and lively, with an upward sound at the end that seems to have a hook.
As the words fell, a goose yellow figure came out of the door. Shen Wuran was Shen Zuixue's biological sister, and she was just as beautiful as her.
With clear peach blossom eyes, a straight nose, bright red lips, and two small canine teeth that show when she smiles, she looks cute and delicate.
Shen Wuran was wearing a goose yellow Miao costume with intricate patterns embroidered on the lapels and cuffs. She had a silver chain belt tied around her slender waist. As she ran over, the silver ornaments collided with each other, making crisp sounds.
She rushed over and hugged Shen Zuixue's arm, complaining in a tender voice: "Brother, why did you come back just now! I have been waiting for you for a long time, I have something to tell you."
Shen Zuixue followed her movements and went into the house. As she sat down, she asked in a cooperative tone, "What are you talking about?"
Shen Wuran let go of Shen Zuixue's arm and held her chin with both hands, "Brother, I, I want to marry His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
"Ah?" Shen Zuixue was stunned. "What did you say?"
Shen Wuran bit her lip, "Brother, I heard that the Crown Prince is gentle and refined, proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and could write poems at the age of three and essays at the age of seven."
Her voice became softer and softer. "Besides, he loves the people like his own children. I heard that he personally participated in disaster relief more than once, and proposed many good policies in the court... I will not lose out if I marry him."
Shen Zuixue frowned, "Ranran, what's wrong with you?"
Naturally, he had also heard rumors about Crown Prince Yan Sui. He was indeed a good candidate for a husband, but he knew Shen Wuran. How could his Shen Wuran want to marry someone she had never met?
"Didn't you say you wanted to live with your Gu worms for the rest of your life? Why, have you changed your mind?"
Shen Zuixue raised her eyebrows and asked calmly.
Shen Wuran put down her hand and shifted her gaze somewhat unnaturally, "No, I just suddenly felt that marrying His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would be a good idea."
"Ranran, did they force you?" Shen Zuixue's face darkened.
Shen Wuran shook her head, "No."
Shen Zuixue looked at her without saying anything. He was the Holy Son, for sure, but Shen Wuran was his biological sister, and he couldn't possibly let Shen Wuran marry into Da Mo.
It would be fine if Shen Wuran fell in love with the man from Da Mo, but it is obviously not the case now.
"Ranran, you have to know that if you agree to them, the initiative will no longer be in your hands. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is not an object without his own ideas. If he doesn't like you, what will they do?"
The natural thing is to send Shen Wuran to another force.
After realizing this, Shen Wuran's face turned pale.
Seeing this, Shen Zuixue had nothing to understand. It must be those old guys who threatened Ranran.
He really couldn't understand what he had been doing in the past. Not only did he always ignore his sister's situation, but this time he even agreed to let her come along.
He was indecisive even though he knew they wanted to sacrifice Ranran. If he was not a rare Gu-controlling genius in Miaojiang, he would really suspect that he had been poisoned.
"Don't worry about this matter, leave it to my brother."
