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

Si Yunhan’s eyes got cold. He pulled himself together and directly waved his hand.

“I don’t want to meet her.”

“What? You feel regretful after knowing she is alive?”

Right after Si Yunhan said, a burst of sinister laughter came.

Seeing Duanmu Qing, Si Yunhan showed a glimmer of annoyance in his eyes quickly.

“Isn’t it rude of you to break into a man’s backyard?”

Duanmu Qing gave a mischievous snicker, walked to Si Yunhan slowly and pinched his chin.

“So what if I am rude? Even if I sleep with you now, there won’t be any problem.”

“Heiress of Princess Jing, please behave yourself.”

Si Yunhan directly turned his head to parry Duanmu Qing’s hand.

“Behave myself?” Looking at Si Yunhan’s annoyed facial expression, Duanmu Qing snorted, “I’m talking with my fiancé. Why would I need to behave myself?”

The imperial edict of the marriage bestowal was issued. What was the point of telling her to behave herself?

Instantly, Si Yunhan’s eyes became dim and his face turned ashen.

Looking at Si Yunhan’s despairing face, Duanmu Qing frowned acidly.

“Why do you look like that? Are you cursing me?”

She was not dead and he looked as if wailing at her funeral.

Si Yunhan knitted his eyebrows and said angrily, “You’ve got me wrong. If you have nothing else to say, please go back. I want to rest now.”

Si Yunhan bowed to Duanmu Qing, turned around and wanted to go back to his room.

“Prepare yourself and attend the party with me tonight.”

As Si Yunhan was leaving, Duanmu Qing directly stood before him to keep him from leaving.

Si Yunhan hedged and looked at Duanmu Qing in confusion.

“Don’t you have two side consorts? Why do you need me to be your date?”

They were not married yet. Supposedly, Duanmu Qing should attend the party with her side consort.

With a sinister smile, Duanmu Qing approached his ear slowly and said word by word, “Because I want to see her facial expression after she knows you are engaged to me.”

Si Yunhan stiffened and finally made a reply after a while.

“I’ll go with you.”

“Prepare well and I will pick you up tonight.”

Duanmu Qing laughed, turned around and left.

Si Yunhan looked at Duanmu Qing’s back, his eyes glittering.

He didn’t want to give up upon her. He must seize the opportunity to do something.

The lamps were lit up in the evening.

Tonight, the imperial palace of the Zhuque Empire was different from before. The hall was ablaze with lights. The Fengyi Palace specially designed for holding parties were bustling tonight.

In Fengyi Palace, the members of the imperial family and the invited officials arrived continuously.

“Here come the Eldest Prince, Marchioness Anping, Heiress of Marchioness Anping, and Commandery Prince Jiahui…”

The imperial servants in Fengyi Palace chanted loudly.

Instantly, a young man and a young girl showed up in Fengyi Palace.

The woman was wearing a suit of marchioness’s suit, who looked quite pretty. The man with a fair-complexioned face looked extremely handsome. The couple was Marchioness Anping, Situ Rui and the eldest prince, Duanmu Xian.

They were followed by their son and daughter–Situ Jue and Situ Lan.

Seeing Duanmu Xian, the men all got excited.

“His Highness the Eldest Prince is so good-looking. He and Marchioness Anping are so affectionate to each other.”

The grand secretariat, Guo Xiaoxian’s husband, Mr. Zhang stared at Duanmu Xian and Situ Rui with an envious look.

“Yeah, I heard that Marchioness Anping doesn’t even have a concubine. Marchioness Anping only has a husband, i.e., His Highness the Eldest Prince.”

The imperial censor, Cao Shuying’s husband, Mr. Cui was also envious.

“Alas, I envy him so much!”

“Haha. Envying is useless.”

The director of the Ministry of War, Luo Hongqu’s husband, Mr. Chen said with a grin.

“His Highness the Eldest Prince is the late empress’s only son. It was an honor for Marchioness Anping to marry him. Moreover, His Highness the Eldest Prince was the No. 1 handsome man in the capital back then. Of course Marchioness Anping must adore him.”

The current No. 1 handsome man in the Zhuque Empire was certainly His Highness the Royal Consort.

“Here come Princess Rui, Prince Consort Rui, Heiress of Princess Rui and Commandery Prince Anyang…”

Duanmu Fei entered the hall with her husband, He Mixiu.

They were followed by two lovable kids. The boy Duanmu Hua was ten years old and the girl Duanmu Zhao was eight years old. They were both He Mixiu’s children.

Upon seeing Situ Rui and Duanmu Xian in the hall, Duanmu Fei immediately made a bow with clasped hands.

“Rui, Xian, you’ve arrived.”

“Rui, Xian.”

He Mixiu also bowed to Situ Rui and Duanmu Xian.

Duanmu Zhao and Duanmu Hua also greeted them politely.

“Good evening, Aunt, Uncle.”

Duanmu Xian stroked the two kids’ heads amiably.

“Zhao and Hua are so lovely.”

Situ Lan and Situ Jue also went forward and greeted Duanmu Fei and He Mixiu.

“Good evening, Aunt, Uncle.”

After greeting, the two elder children dragged the two younger ones over and played.

“Your brother misses the Crown Princess too much so we came here early.”

Situ Rui cuddled Duanmu Xian affectionately.

Duanmu Xian cast an angry look at Situ Rui and turned to Duanmu Fei, saying, “I haven’t seen Xi for more than one year. I really miss her.”

“Yeah. I heard that she lost her memory. I wonder whether the imperial doctors can cure her.” Duanmu Fei looked quite worried.

“Here come Princess Jing and Heiress of Princess Jing…”

Duanmu Shuang entered the hall, followed by Duanmu Qing and Si Yunhan.

The arrival of Duanmu Qing and Si Yunhan caused an uproar among the guests again.

“Did you see the mister beside Heiress of Princess Jing? I heard that Her Majesty the Empress has made him engaged to Heiress of Princess Jing.”

“Oh? He is the legitimate son of General Si.”

“But I heard that he was with Her Highness the Crown Princess. Why is he engaged to Heiress of Princess Jing now?”

“Who knows? I heard that Princess Jing asked for the imperial edict on her own.”

“Alas. I guess he must think Her Highness the Crown Princess was missing and unreliable so he turned to Heiress of Princess Jing.”

…

Si Yunhan put on a sullen look on his handsome face, giving off an air of coldness.

Feeling the cold air of Si Yunhan, Duanmu Qing sneered.

“Here come Her Majesty the Empress, His Highness the Royal Consort, Her Highness the Crown Princess and Mr. Xuanyuan…”

Hearing the chanting, the crowd all kept quiet and prostrated themselves.

“Long live the Empress! Long live His Highness the Royal Consort! Long live Her Highness the Crown Princess!”

Duanmu Xue dressed in a yellow phoenix robe and Huangfu Che entered Fengyi Palace slowly.

Duanmu Shuang peeped at Huangfu Che with a glint of fascination across her eyes.

He was still that handsome. Even if he was simply dressed in white, his elegant and graceful disposition couldn’t be concealed. He was always the most dazzling person in the splendid imperial palace.

Following Duanmu Xue, Duanmu Xi was still dressed in white. Her hair was only tied up with a white ribbon. Her indifferent and elegant demeanor just attracted the attention of all the men in the hall.

Duanmu Xi frowned and instantly showed an air of alienation.

She disliked the feeling of being the focus. And it was also the reason why she didn’t fancy attending this kind of party. Not in the modern time or the ancient time.

Xuanyuan Mo also felt she was gazed at by others. Instantly, he gave off a rush of killing intent.

How dare these people covet his girl!

Seemingly scared by Xuanyuan Mo’s killing intent, those men with ulterior motives didn’t dare to gaze at Duanmu Xi anymore. They all lowered their heads obediently.

Feeling the air fluctuation behind, Duanmu Xue and Huangfu Che both looked back only to see that one of them slightly frowned and the other one pulled a long face. Then, the two of them looked each other in the eye with a smile and only felt the scene was vaguely familiar.

The current Duanmu Xi and Xuanyuan Mo just looked like the younger Duanmu Xue and Huangfu Che. Perhaps, these two young people would be as happy as the latter.

Duanmu Xue stepped onto the seat of honor with Huangfu Che, raising her hands with her palms facing down towards the crowd prostrating themselves.

“All of you, rise.”

“Thank you, Your Majesty.”
