Romance of the Resurrected Crown Princess and the Cold-blooded Wolf King

“I…”

Before Xiahou Shan could refute, Zhuge Weiming stood up and said, “This dance should only be available in heaven and can hardly be seen in this world. Crown Princess is more skilled, and our Xuanwu Empire is willing to admit defeat.” After speaking, Zhuge Weiming bowed to Duanmu Xi with clasped hands.

Xiahou Shan glared at Zhuge Weiming angrily when she heard his words as if she were about to eat him.

Feeling the fire-breathing line of sight next to him, Zhuge Weiming didn’t turn around to look at Xiahou Shan. Instead, he only slightly inclined his head to look askance at her, with a strong warning in his harsh eyes.

Reading the warning in Zhuge Weiming’s eyes, Xiahou Shan sat down reluctantly, glaring indignantly at Duanmu Xi across the table. Xiahou Shan struggled to hold back her anger in a sulk. She could only grunt hard.

Damn it! Zhuge Weiming was just given the title of a prince owing to the promotion of the emperor. Did he really consider himself as the host of the Xuanyuan Empire? If it weren’t for her incapable younger brother, her Xiahou family would not need a man from the Zhuge family to help govern the empire.

She also hated Duanmu Xi so much. “This dance should only be available in heaven and could hardly be seen in this world.” What the hell did they say? They were all vulgar people with no taste.

Xuanyuan Lie glanced at Xiahou Shan and then looked at the people underneath, “Well, now that the winner has been decided, let’s continue our banquet then.”

“Your Majesty, could you please hold on?” Duanmu Xi stood up and bowed slightly towards Xuanyuan Lie, “There is one more thing that I would like to say.”

Xuanyuan Lie looked at Duanmu Xi and frowned slightly, “Crown Princess, please speak!”

Duanmu Xi bowed deeply to Xuanyuan Lie and said, “I want to propose marriage to your empire. I want to marry Xuanyuan Mo, Prince Zhan of your country.”

As soon as she made this remark, the audience was in an uproar.

“Crown Princess of Zhuque actually proposed marriage…” Back then, the previous empress of the Zhuque Empire also personally went to the Qinglong Empire to propose marriage, seeking to marry the crown prince of the Qinglong Empire. Unexpectedly, history would repeat itself. Now, the current crown princess of the Zhuque Empire also personally came to the Baihu Empire to propose marriage to their Prince Zhan. Well, like mother, like daughter!

“Crown Princess of Zhuque asks to marry Prince Zhan, and His Majesty will definitely not agree…” As everyone in the Baihu Empire knew that His Majesty liked Prince Zhan so much that he had long intended to make Prince Zhan the crown prince. Now, Crown Princess of Zhuque said she wanted to marry Prince Zhan. Everyone believed that His Majesty would fall out with her.

“Well, even if our emperor disagrees, then what? As long as Prince Zhan is willing…” The old emperor in the Qinglong Empire did not agree as well, but finally, the crown prince of the Qinglong Empire still married into the Zhuque Empire.

“That’s not necessarily true. Prince Zhan might not agree to marry Crown Princess of Zhuque…” After all, it was rare for men in this world to give up the supreme power and status for a woman just like what Crown Prince of Qinglong did.

Lian Zhengyu felt sour in his heart, and a faint sadness flashed in his dark green eyes. He had just figured out his feelings for Duanmu Xi. And she was getting married?

The gentleness on Xuanyuan Hao’s face disappeared again without a trace, leaving only pain and jealousy. Was Duanmu Xi so anxious to marry Xuanyuan Mo?

With a glint of mockery in her eyes, Guo Hui’er didn’t expect Crown Princess of Zhuque should actually request marrying that half-demon. What a stupid girl! Nevertheless, that was actually quite good. When that bastard was gone, no one could scramble for the throne with his son.

Xiahou Shan glared at Duanmu Xi with resentment as if Duanmu Xi had robbed her of something that should have belonged to her.

A gleam of cold flashed across Zhuge Weiming’s black eyes. Just as he had expected, Duanmu Xi came to the Baihu Empire for a marriage union. However, Zhuge Weiming must stop her. Never could he allow the Baihu Empire, the Zhuque Empire, and the Qinglong Empire to sit on the same boat.

When Xuanyuan Lie heard Duanmu Xi’s marriage proposal, his frown deepened and his face darkened, and even his voice also changed back to his original coldness, “Is this the second thing you came to the Baihu Empire for?”

Although Xuanyuan Lie had a hunch in his heart that this was what Duanmu Xi was going to say, it was still somewhat unacceptable to just hear it. Although Duanmu Xi was very nice, Xuanyuan Lie still didn’t want his beloved son to marry her.

“Yes.” Sensing Xuanyuan Lie’s displeasure, Duanmu Xi began to feel a little nervous. It really wasn’t that easy. Suddenly she felt warmth in her palm. Duanmu Xi turned her head and saw Snow was smiling at her. His charming smile immediately dazzled her eyes.

Seeing Duanmu Xi’s obsessive purple eyes, Xuanyuan Mo smiled again. He took Duanmu Xi’s little hand and kissed it. Then he said with a voice that only Duanmu Xi could hear, “Relax, I am yours.”

Because of the long-distance, most people didn’t see Xuanyuan Mo’s small movements but those who were sitting closer could see them clearly.

Xuanyuan Lie’s black eyes flashed. This brat deliberately showed his affection in front of him. Was his son trying to tell him his intention by this way?

Seeing the lovey-dovey interaction between Xuanyuan Mo and Duanmu Xi, Xuanyuan Hao felt his heart aching severely with numbness. Perhaps he had already experienced all the pain in his whole life at this moment.

Currently, Xiahou Shan’s eyes were burning with anger. Her face was full of envy, jealousy, and resentment, making her bright and beautiful face look a bit hideous.

Unlike Xiahou Shan, rather than jealousy or resentment, there was only sadness in Lian Zhengyu’s eyes.

When Xuanyuan Mo said “I am yours”, Duanmu Xi fell again as if his words had magic. Duanmu Xi made up her mind that she would definitely get him, and she must have confidence. Taking a deep breath, Duanmu Xi was about to speak again but was preempted by someone.

Zhuge Weiming stood up and bowed slightly toward Xuanyuan Lie, “Your Majesty, this time I also came to your empire for the marriage union, and Prince Zhan is also our target.”

The crowd was shocked once again when they heard the words.

The Xuanwu Empire was also here for the marriage union! Was this a pure coincidence? Or did Zhuge Weiming deliberately target Crown Princess of Zhuque?

It was Prince Zhan again. When did their cold prince become so popular?

They all came for a marriage union. Which side would His Majesty agree to? One was to get a woman to marry into the Baihu Empire and the other was to let his son marry into the Zhuque Empire. It seemed to be an easy choice to make but everyone knew that it wasn’t.

When hearing Zhuge Weiming’s words, Xuanyuan Lie immediately showed displeasure, looking at Zhuge Weiming with a fierce glint flashing in his eyes. In the afternoon, Xuanyuan Lie clearly said that he had to give the matter further thought, but now Zhuge Weiming mentioned it again here. Was Zhuge Weiming trying to put pressure on him? Did Zhuge Weiming think the Baihu Empire would be afraid of the Xuanwu Empire?

He glanced at Xiahou Shan who seemed to be a bit shy at the moment, and a trace of disgust flashed quickly in Xuanyuan Lie’s dark eyes. How could such an ill-mannered woman think about marrying his beloved son? In her dreams!

Guo Hui’er’s face also darkened. Why did even the Xuanwu Empire also specifically ask for that half-demon? What was good in him? Hadn’t they heard the rumors?

Duanmu Xi’s dark purple eyes narrowed slightly, as she glanced at Xiahou Shan and Zhuge Weiming. She tried to keep an eye on these two people, who kept touching her bottom line again and again. Did they really think she was a pushover?

A gleam of cold light flashed in Xuanyuan Mo’s amber eyes. He looked at Zhuge Weiming and said coldly, “What do you think I am? A dump? Do you think I would casually marry a woman in the street?”

Everyone was stifling their laughter when they heard Xuanyuan Mo’s words, and those who couldn’t hold back, all lowered their heads and laughed silently. A dump? A woman in the street? Prince Zhan could curse people without dirty words.

Duanmu Xi also smiled slightly. Her Snow didn’t talk much, but he would surprise everyone once he did speak!

Xiahou Shan’s slightly red face immediately turned green. Xiahou Shan looked sadly at Xuanyuan Mo, but he didn’t even take a glimpse at her.

Zhuge Weiming was also livid and yet couldn’t say anything to refute. Zhuge Weiming could only turn to Xuanyuan Lie, who was sitting up there and watching them like a spectator. And before Zhuge Weiming was just about to say something, a cold female voice came.

“Your Majesty.” Duanmu Xi bowed again to Xuanyuan Lie, “I really love Snow, and I am also very sincere about this marriage proposal.”

Suddenly, with a wave of her sleeves, countless large and small sandalwood boxes appeared in the center of the hall, all of which were tied with red ribbons.

By urging the wind spiritual power in her body, and gently waving the sleeves, all those sandalwood boxes were opened. And everyone was so momentarily dazzled by the strong glare that they couldn’t open their eyes.

“These are the betrothal presents that I have brought with me. Please accept them.”

When everyone saw the countless treasures in those sandalwood boxes, they were shocked again.

“So many… So many betrothal presents…”

“Crown Princess of Zhuque is so generous…”

“Prince Zhan is worth so much…”

“Are these the betrothal presents? Has Crown Princess of Zhuque moved all the treasury of Zhuque Empire here? Perhaps the treasury of the Qinglong Empire has also been moved here together.”

The betrothal presents included not only countless rare treasures but also many precious medicinal materials that they had never seen before as well as the superb elixirs that they had heard of or never heard of. Regardless of other things, just those superb elixirs could be as valuable as their Baihu Empire’s treasury as a whole.

Guo Hui’er’s eyes sparkled with greed. At this moment, these rare and exotic treasures were all she cared about. She couldn’t wait to agree on the marriage union and marry Xuanyuan Mo off immediately in exchange for these treasures.

Even Zhou Manyun, who was usually calm, was also fascinated by the amazing betrothal presents in front of her. Zhou Manyun didn’t expect that Duanmu Xi was so rich.

There was also enthusiasm in Zhuge Weiming’s black eyes. These treasures were worth four or five times as many as those in the national treasury of their Xuanwu Empire! Was it that Crown Princess of Zhuque was too rich, or that the Zhuque Empire and the Qinglong Empire were too rich? Duanmu Xi took out so many treasures. No wonder she did not care about the betrothal presents that Zhuge Weiming intended to give her.

Xiahou Shan was also shocked by the luxurious betrothal presents in front of her. Seeing these, she finally realized the gap between her and Duanmu Xi. Whether these things were prepared by Duanmu Xi or Empress of Zhuque Empire and Emperor of Qinglong Empire, Duanmu Xi had far surpassed her in terms of wealth.

Only Xuanyuan Lie remained unmoved and kept a cold face. Looking at Duanmu Xi, Xuanyuan Lie coldly said, “Crown Princess, these gifts are too valuable and I can’t accept them. Please take them back!”

Duanmu Xi frowned when she heard Xuanyuan Lie’s words. He referred to her betrothal presents simply as gifts, which indicated that Xuanyuan Lie was very repulsive to her proposal of marriage from the bottom of his heart. It seemed that Duanmu Xi still had a long way to go before she could finalize her marriage with Xuanyuan Mo.

Just as Duanmu Xi was lost in thought, came a sarcastic voice.

“Refusing the presents is a correct choice. She will become an empress in the future. By then, she will have so many concubines, surrounded by countless gorgeous-looking men. How can she care to take a glance at Prince Zhan?”
