Chapter 735 He fainted on the spot
“Princess, please don’t be impulsive and come to see Prince Kang suddenly. If he finds out that you came after being rejected by Prince Yang, I’m afraid he won’t be happy.”
The maidservant beside her whispered to Wu Yue'er that they had already secretly sent someone to inform the prince, but they couldn't stop the princess at all.
Wu Yue'er grew angrier the more she thought about it. "Prince Yang is really going too far. He was pursuing me before, but because of such a small thing, he completely changed his attitude."
I've figured it out now. This guy is no good at all. Otherwise, how could he have gotten engaged in such a short time?
Maybe she already had a fiancé before I arrived. I wonder which unmarried woman she's been dumped before, and now she's practically begging to get married!
“Princess, since Prince Yang got engaged so quickly, it’s clear he’s not a good person. It’s a good thing he’s been replaced now,” the maid said.
Wu Yue'er, however, did not think so. She had been thinking about the King of Chu and felt that the King of Yang was inferior to the King of Chu in every way.
But now that they know there's no chance with the King of Chu, the King of Yang has become the best choice. Now they feel that the King of Yang is good in every way, but unfortunately he is engaged to someone else!
Neither the Eighth Prince nor the Prince Yang pleased her as much as the Eighth Prince in terms of appearance or temperament.
“Princess, I heard you just returned from my seventh brother’s place. I wonder what happened?” Prince Kang asked bluntly.
Wu Yue'er was shocked to find that the Prince Kang had already heard the news as soon as she left the Prince Yang's residence. Could it be that they knew about all her movements during this period?
Originally, she was thinking of simply choosing the Eighth Prince first, so that Prince Yang would regret it later, but now she just couldn't bring herself to say it.
"Your Highness, I have just learned that Prince Yang has become engaged. Were you aware of this?"
Prince Kang was stunned, disbelief flashing in his eyes. "What? My seventh brother is engaged?"
He never expected his seventh brother to act so quickly, arranging a marriage in one fell swoop and completely cutting off any possibility of a union!
But... whose girl did he choose? Why was there no news about it before?
"You don't know either?"
Seeing that the Prince Kang's expression seemed genuine, Wu Yue'er had another suspicion: could he be deliberately lying to her?
King Kang shook his head. "I had not heard of this news before, and I was quite surprised."
"Do you know which family's daughter he used to be close to?"
"My seventh brother has never had a girl he likes before, nor has he ever mentioned marriage. If he were to get engaged, I really can't think of who it would be right now."
King Kang pondered carefully and felt that this matter might not be unfounded. His seventh brother had no need to tell such a lie that would be exposed as soon as asked; it would be completely meaningless.
……
The next day.
Song Ruozhen saw Meng Qin and Yun Nianchu arrive early in the morning, both of them with smiles on their faces.
"You're all so happy so early in the morning, has something good happened?"
"Ruozhen, this is quite an interesting story!" Yun Nianchu couldn't help but laugh. "You should have known about this before us, didn't His Highness the Prince of Chu tell you?"
"I heard that something happened outside the city. The prince left the city last night with Prince Xiao and the Minister of the Court of Judicial Review, and they haven't returned yet."
Song Ruozhen shook her head. She was still unclear about what had happened, but since the Dali Temple had also intervened, things were probably not simple.
Yun Nianchu understood, and then said, "Wu Yue'er is engaged to the Eighth Prince!"
"Eighth Prince?"
Song Ruozhen wasn't too surprised to hear this, since there were only a few princes to choose from. Since Prince Yang was already engaged, it was impossible for him to be chosen. Therefore, the Eighth Prince was indeed the most suitable candidate.
However, this happened much faster than expected, probably because Wu Yue'er sensed something was wrong and thus arranged the marriage as soon as possible.
"Judging from your laughter, things can't be that simple, can they?"
"I heard that Wu Yue'er doesn't believe that Prince Yang has agreed to a marriage, so Wu Jingshuo went to the palace early this morning to request a marriage decree."
The Emperor declared that Prince Yang's marriage was already arranged and he could not marry Wu Yue'er. Wu Jingshuo's expression turned extremely ugly at that moment. My husband happened to be in the Imperial Study at the time, and he told me about it when he returned.”
Yun Nianchu smiled slightly. Yun Chengze was performing well in the court and was highly regarded.
"However, Wu Yue'er was also flexible and adaptable. After learning that Prince Yang was indeed engaged, she said she wanted to marry the Eighth Prince."
"Has the Emperor agreed?"
Song Ruozhen raised an eyebrow, probably because things were not that simple, otherwise the two of them would not have found it so funny.
Yun Nianchu nodded, "I heard that Prince Kang wanted to marry Wu Yue'er, but he felt that he couldn't compete with Prince Yang, so he even asked his mother to say a few good words for him in front of the Emperor."
The Emperor, considering this, agreed. Unexpectedly, Prince Kang also entered the palace this morning, requesting the Emperor to bestow a marriage upon another young lady.
"It seems he knew that Prince Yang was engaged, so he learned the same trick?"
Meng Qin shrugged. "King Kang's speed is quite fast, but I also heard that Wu Yue'er went to Prince Yang's residence yesterday. Presumably, Prince Yang made things clear at that time."
Unfortunately, he didn't believe it, which is why this happened today.
"Actually, none of this was anything special, it was all expected, but no one expected that Prince Kang would faint after learning that the Emperor had agreed to his marriage with Wu Yue'er!"
"Wu Yue'er was just walking out of the Imperial Study when she met Prince Kang and happily told him the good news."
Unexpectedly, Prince Kang fainted, and she tumbled down the steps with him, ending up with a bruised and swollen face.
Song Ruozhen was slightly taken aback. This dramatic development was indeed unexpected and must have caused quite a stir in the palace at the time!
"It was Prince Yang who was smart enough to arrange a marriage with Meng Qin first; otherwise, he would probably be the one who fainted right now."
Yun Nianchu couldn't help but laugh, "Meng Qin, you really saved His Highness Prince Yang!"
Meng Qin was a little embarrassed. "Originally, I shouldn't have said that about a girl, but Wu Yue'er is vicious and marrying her would indeed be a disaster."
After chatting for a while, the three sisters happily went out.
"Meng Qin is getting married soon. Thinking back to when we first met, we were both still unmarried young ladies!"
Now that we're both married, and you're getting married soon, we need to figure out what kind of gift to give you.
Yun Nianchu and Song Ruozhen exchanged a glance. When they got married, Meng Qin gave them thoughtful gifts, and they should reciprocate with something in return.
Meng Qin looked delighted. "I know how you mean, and I'm already very touched!"
"Our good intentions are a given, but we absolutely must send a gift. As your best friends, we'll definitely support you on your wedding day!"
Song Ruozhen chuckled. Back when she first transmigrated into the book, she was already incredibly wealthy. Now, she's even more so, having opened so many businesses and made a fortune.
