The Dramatic Crown Princess Wants to Poison Me!

Chapter 766: Chapter 741: Consolation

Prince Zhuang was so enraged that he coughed up blood, his vitality severely damaged. The joy of having his confinement lifted vanished completely, leaving only anger and heartache.

Previously, his secret enterprises had been targeted and destroyed without any apparent reason or noise, and he didn’t even know who was behind it.

Although he suspected the Fifth Couple, he had no evidence and couldn’t openly expose this matter, so he could only swallow his anger.

Having suffered such a silent loss had already made him want to vomit three pints of blood.

Now, are they finally targeting his overt enterprises?

Yet he still didn’t know who the opponent was.

Prince Zhuang felt that ever since he entered the Capital City and became the Crown Prince, he had been plagued by bad luck. Sure enough, he couldn’t even retain his princely status and was demoted to a Second Class Prince.

Most importantly, later he was rebuked and scolded by his father, the Emperor, over the matter of Huangfu Wei, feeling that the ten parts of the imperial favor he once held were now less than two.

Having numerous injuries was already bad enough, but losing the imperial favor was what truly made him panic and fearful.

He had to think about who was against him and why!

Could it be Old Nine?

Supposedly, at this time, with only ten days left until his father’s birthday, Prince Xin had already arrived in the capital, and Prince Lu arrived yesterday. Even the tardiest, Prince Cheng, was probably not far from the Capital City.

The Capital City would soon be in a tumultuous autumn, and anyone with any sense wouldn’t waste time on him now, especially since he’s just a Commandery Prince!

But who else could it be besides Prince Li? Didn’t Prince Xin and Prince Lu just arrive in the Capital City? Prince Liang, that fool, couldn’t have the ability!

As for those princely heirs, they’re just kids, he didn’t even pay attention to them.

Indeed, both Huangfu Yuxuan and Huangfu Jingchen had some minor cunning, but they were insignificant; the real schemers were those behind them.

While Prince Zhuang was angrily venting in his mansion, Huangfu Jingchen paid no heed. After several victories that forced Prince Zhuang to retreat step by step, he was in good spirits, especially after receiving an invitation from Princess Ning.

Princess Ning and Huangfu Jingchen were not familiar, not even acquaintances; however, she extended invitations widely this time.

She couldn’t just invite the noble ladies; of course, she also had to send some to the outstanding noble gentlemen. By the time, having exceptional young men and women appear at her Prince Ning Mansion would certainly add to the splendor.

Huangfu Jingchen wasn’t familiar with Prince Ning either; family ties within the Imperial Family were weak. Even close uncles and cousins were like this, let alone more distant relatives?

However, Huangfu Jingchen believed that after so long in preparation, staying low-key and biding his time, it was time to step out and let everyone know who he was!

His mother had said that when it was time to be patient, one shouldn’t seek to stand out, but when it was time to draw the sword, one must do so!

Having navigated the Jianghu for so long, he found his mother’s words very true.

If it makes sense, then he should do it!

So that is why he came today.

What he responded to was not Miss Yu, but everyone!

He was the Princely Heir of Prince Cheng, Huangfu Jingchen, in the Capital City, his name would no longer remain unknown!

When Yu Xiaoyue heard Huangfu Jingchen say he was already engaged, her face changed drastically, not because she was shocked that such an immortal-like figure was already engaged, but because he revealed her intentions so blatantly, so suddenly, yet this gentle gentleman used a warm tone to bless her, dispelling all her embarrassment, shame, and anger, leaving only a deep sense of comfort and warmth.

There really are some people in this world who can make you cry with one word, laugh with another!
