Chapter 42: Prince Peerless Charmed the World

The man named Suxiao said seriously: “Master, I know you very well. Once you are interested in this Miss Bai, you will indeed do something excessive.”

When the man heard Suxiao’s words, he said awkwardly: “Suxiao, in fact, you don’t need to understand me like this.”

After listening to his words, Suxiao tilted and almost fell.

No longer pay attention to that man, Suxiao quickly walked to the tree then bent over to check the killer who was kicked to the air by Bai Aoxue.

“Hiss…” Suxiao fiercely drew in a breath.

It seemed that this man had rarely seen to see Suxiao so shocked. He slowly stepped towards him and asked: “What’s wrong?”

Suxiao quickly stood up and walked over to the killer whose neck was wrung by Bai Aoxue then bent over to check.

Since the man barely saw Suxiao show such an expression, he did not bother him. Instead, he stopped and waited at a side.

Finally, after checking all three dead killers, Suxiao slowly got up and went to the man.

“The first one was kicked in the ribs which directly went through his heart and lung. He died in one move. The second one was infected by a poison I have never seen before. There was no possibility of survival once people got it. The third one was killed directly and violently. A sword pierced his heart.” Suxiao walked back to the man to report.

The man was also shocked when he heard what Suxiao said. There wasn’t any possibility for a person to kill a man with a kick. And he knew clearly what kind of strength and skills that person needed to equip with.

But Bai Aoxue, a weak woman, even has such a mighty explosive power. It was no wonder that Suxiao was stunned.

“This Bai Aoxue really surprised me. It seemed that she is also an expert in using poisons.” The man thought slightly.

“Master, I think you’d better not to target on Bai Aoxue. You can’t afford such a cruel and brutal woman!” Suxiao sighed.

After saying that, moreover, he used his eyes to indicate that man to look at the three bodies on the ground which were the best evidences.

The man looked at the expression of Suxiao, and smiled lightly: “Suxiao, have you ever seen someone with such a smile? It is brilliant, bright and also dark. How contradictory it is! Such a person indeed comes from the darkness, while also shines with endless light!”

When Suxiao heard the man’s words, he frowned and said: “Master, I’m just a military man, knowing nothing of your romantic themes. What I only know is the intention of our trip in Chengxi.”

After the man listened to Suxiao, he said unhappily: “Suxiao, you are really boring.”

“Let’s go. Go back.” After a pause, that man said slowly. His voice was still careless but with a hint of seduction.

When his words died away, no longer lingering, that man turned and left quickly.

After Suxiao heard that man’s remark, he shook his head and quickly followed.

Bai Aoxue was walking back while thought about how to deal with Bai Suxue and her gang.

She didn’t know that she had already been spied on when she was showing her natural self and also got a title as cruelty and brutality.

Quietly returning to Prime Minister’s mansion from the backyard, Bai Aoxue went directly to her small courtyard.

She thought that this time she must let Bai Suxue and her people lost forever.

Back to the small courtyard, Bai Aoxue found that her small courtyard that nobody has cared about was now brightly lit.

Bai Aoxue walked into the small courtyard saw the Mumian and Hongxiu who were bustling about and groups of maidservants and attendants.

Bai Aoxue shouted in confusion: “Mumian, what are you busy with?”

Mumian has been kept busy and lost her bearings. She hurriedly turned back when she heard the voice of Bai Aoxue, and then she saw Bai Aoxue walking in from outside the door.

“Miss, where are you going? We are all going crazy!” Mumian looked at Bai Aoxue and said happily.

Bai Aoxue looked at the Mumian and asked with doubt: “What are you busy with? Who brought those people in the yard?”

“Miss, they were brought by Steward Bai. Steward Bai passed on the order from my lord that since Miss is going to get married; the house needs to be cleaned up thoroughly.”

“Beside, my lord also said that General will come back in the afternoon the day after tomorrow. At that time, His Majesty will host a banquet for General!” Mumian looked at Bai Aoxue excitedly.

Bai Aoxue was not interested in the previous things, while the latter news that Mumian said was enough to make Bai Aoxue’s proud calmness completely disappear.

“What did you say? My uncle is coming back?” Bai Aoxue swept away the previously indifferent feelings and asked passionately.

Mumian looked at Bai Aoxue’s appearance, thinking that Bai Aoxue was happy since she hadn’t seen her relatives for a long time. She said without doubting: “Yes, it is emphasized by Steward Bai who asked me to notice Miss. You also need to attend that banquet the day after tomorrow when General comes back.”

In fact, Bai Aoxue was a little happy about the return of Ye Zhaojue, but she was more perturbed. After all, Ye Zhaojue certainly would have doubts about her great changes.

Ye Zhaojue didn’t like Bai Qiwei who never paid attention to Bai Aoxue. He surely didn’t know the change of Bai Aoxue. Just like now, even he knew, he didn’t doubt it.

However, Ye Zhaojue was different. He has always loved Bai Aoxue. From the memory of her predecessor, Bai Aoxue can feel that Ye Zhaojue was the only one who treated Bai Aoxue with his heart except Mumian.

Bai Aoxue did not want to let Ye Zhaojue be disappointed nor feel sad. However, she could not tell Ye Zhaojue that his only relative in this world had already gone.

Now on the one hand Bai Aoxue wanted to see the legendary cold-faced god Ye Zhaojue. On the other hand, she was afraid to see him.

“Miss! Miss! How are you in a daze?” Looking at Bai Aoxue who kept being silent, Mumian asked loudly.

And Bai Aoxue was also called back to herself by Mumian’s shout.

“Well, I see. Is there any special person would come to the imperial palace this time?” Bai Aoxue did not believe that Jun Wuhen held this banquet only for Ye Zhaojue.

After all, she also knew a little bit of the character of Jun Wuhen.

After listening to the words of Bai Aoxue, Mumian looked at Bai Aoxue with disdain: “Miss, what are you talking about? Isn’t it normal for His Majesty to hold a banquet for General? General led the troops to so many victories!”

Bai Aoxue looked at Mumian’s worshipful look, her mouth quivered: “It’s just a question.”

Mumian put away her scornful eyes after listening to Bai Aoxue’s words and started to think with her head tilted.

Mumian seemed to remember something. She yelled: “Right! Miss, I heard that this time the Unique Prince of Nanyue is coming to Chengxi. Besides, Mobei which was defeated in this battle seems to unite by marriage with Chengxi in seek of peace.”

When Bai Aoxue listened to Mumian’s words, she raised up her eyebrows slightly. She said that according to the character of Jun Wuhen, he definitely would connect everything together.

If not, he was not Jun Wuhen.

“Well, I got it. You could go to work. Don’t take too long. Since we won’t go back here after I get married, you don’t need to pay too much attention.” Bai Aoxue looked at the busy crowd and said to Mumian.

Presumably these people were secretly looking forward to Bai Aoxue’s soon leaving.

After all, Bai Aoxue’s actions during this time were really enough to make these timid people, who adorned themselves with borrowed plumes, feel fear.

Mumian heard the words of Bai Aoxue and then showed disapproval: “Miss, even if we don’t come back later, after all, you are going to get married. We must make here splendid, letting them know that only the first daughter could be treated like this!”

After Bai Aoxue listened to what Mumian said, she couldn’t help laughing: “Whatever you like. I will go to rest for a while. Don’t bother me except emergency.”

In fact, Bai Aoxue understood that Mumian just wanted to let Bai Suxue know. It wasn’t a new story that Mumian hated Bai Suxue.

“Miss, please go to rest. I am also leaving to work.” Mumian wiped the sweat on her forehead.

Bai Aoxue returned to her room after finding nothing unusual around.

And once those attendants met Bai Aoxue, most of them stepped back and held breath.

Bai Aoxue disdainfully looked at the appearance of these attendants. Perhaps it was called the cause-and-effect transmigration.

There may be servants among them who once bullied Bai Aoxue and Mumian, but now they were so afraid of Bai Aoxue.

Thinking of this, Bai Aoxue cannot help but sighed. No matter where you were, most of them shared the same theory: Natural selection, survival of the fittest!

Bai Aoxue was not interested in the Prince Peerless of Nanyue. She had nothing to do with him. Therefore, she didn’t have to pay special attention.

Rumor said that this Prince Peerless was extremely handsome, and his face was as white as polished jade. He was a god in the eyes of countless young women.

The most important thing was that this Qi Liange was very kind to people. Both talented men in society and the bureaucrats of various countries respected and admired Qi Liange.

Some people said that Qi Liange was a fox that practiced himself for a thousand years. People had no alternative towards his cunning, while they also felt powerless in face of his wisdom.

He had the ability to do bad things and make others thought it was right.

Although Bai Aoxue didn’t care about the outside world, the news of Qi Liange was just like that of Jun Yeyan. They were both hard for her to ignore.

But the two people were vastly different from each other. One was admired by thousands of people, while the other was cast aside by the world.

As the saying goes: Better go out and meet the ghosts than the ugly face prince! This kind of description was of course for Jun Yeyan.

There was another one: A little cinnabar mole in the middle of eyebrows, Prince Peerless charmed the world! Undoubtedly, this was used to describe Qi Liange.

Everyone knew that if you encountered a man with a bright cinnabar mole in the middle of his eyebrows and also wore a purple gilt robe, you should know who he was.

Bai Aoxue was not a face-obsessed. She didn’t value too much of man’s appearance, but Bai Aoxue was still interested in the appearance of Jun Yeyan.

She believed that the day when Jun Yeyan unveiled, the world would regret to give him that remark!

Thinking of this, Bai Aoxue was also shocked by her thoughts.

She laughed and shook her head to get rid of all of the distracting thoughts. Bai Aoxue then slowly returned to her room.

On the other side, Jun Yeyan was in deep thought with furrowed brow.

“Yan, Qi Liange has already arrived in our capital. I guess that bastard emperor still doesn’t know.” Nalan Youhong stood outside the bamboo yard and looked at Jun Yeyan who was lying on the lounge chair.

“Well, let it be.” Jun Yeyan faintly replied.

Nalan Youhong looked at the appearance of Jun Yeyan, and suddenly got annoyed: “shouldn’t you think about what his purpose is since he came in advance and will it disrupt our plan?”

Jun Yeyan listened to Nalan Youhong’s words and echoed with a nod: “You’re right. I should go to the Prime Minister’s mansion. After all, that is my little princess!”

Nalan Youhong listened to the words of Jun Yeyan, and looked at him with surprise: “Yan, do you know what I said?”

Jun Yeyan looked up at Nalan Youhong: “What did you say? Didn’t you let me go to see my little prince?”

“You, you, you… Yan, are you being poisoned!?” Nalan Youhong said helplessly.

Jun Yeyan looked at Nalan Youhong’s appearance and said faintly: “I know what you said. Don’t worry. No matter what Qi Liange will do, it’s impossible for him to influence our plan!”

Nalan Youhong looked at Jun Yeyan, who sat in front of him, with trust. It seemed that he has held everything under control.

Jun Yeyan had such charm, letting people trust him involuntarily. People would be convinced by his domineering power and his supercilious heroic spirit which had everything under control.
