C94 Mysterious Crown Princes Consort
Recently, the citizens of the Southern Water Country were all discussing about something.
It was said that a few days ago, the Crown Prince went to the mountains to hunt, accidentally injured a girl, and brought her to the palace to treat her injuries. It was said that a few days ago, the Crown Prince went hunting on to the mountains, accidentally injured a girl, and brought her to the palace to treat her wounds.
Everyone could not help but be curious what kind of woman was so charming that Nangong Zhen could disobey the emperor's orders.
Nangong Lin also had an ear for this in the palace. According to their reports, other than Nangong Zhen, this woman had never come into contact with a second person, not even Nangong Xiao. However, he definitely knew the identity of this person.
It could be seen how much Nangong Zhen had protected this mysterious woman.
As the saying goes, an ugly daughter-in-law must eventually see her parents-in-law.
Today was the day that Nangong ZhenNa wanted to be his concubine. His demeanor was very grand, and he invited all sorts of officials for a banquet. It was extremely lively. From the looks of it, Nangong Zhen truly valued this woman.
Nangong Lin and Yan Xiaoxi were also invited. Although the two of them didn't want to interact too much with Nangong Zhen, they both wanted to see the mysterious woman's real face. Thus, after carefully dressing up, they entered the palace.
"Little Lin Lin, you look even better in a white robe." Normally, Nangong Lin's clothes were mostly dark, not black, nor was it dark blue. He didn't feel much different.
Today, he had changed into snow-white top quality clothes that were spotless. His hair was jet-black, accentuating the poetic luster of his pearly white neck. Such a Nangong Lin caused Yan Xi to be stunned.
Perhaps it was because of the love in their eyes, but this time, Yan Xiaoxi felt that Nangong Lin was a thousand times better looking than Bei Bai.
In her eyes, his heart had long since been firmly occupied by him.
"Xi Er is also very beautiful, especially at night." Nangong Lin couldn't help but praise him. The moment he opened his mouth, Yan Xiaoxi blushed.
Why was this man always so serious and thinking about that sort of thing?
"Let's go." Nangong Lin held onto Yan Xiaoxi's small hand and led him towards their destination.
The crown prince's palace was decorated with lanterns and flowers; it was bustling with noise and excitement.
Within the hall, the singing and dancing sublimed as laughter filled the air.
The ministers had already taken their seats, sipping tea and eating pastries.
"Prince Lin, Princess Lin is here." The eunuch's voice attracted everyone's attention.
"I pay my respects to Prince Lin. I am from his estate, and I am extremely blessed." Nangong Lin waved his hand, signaling everyone to stand up.
The ministers all looked towards Yan Xiaoxi in unison. Last time, everyone was curious about her, but this time they were even more impressed. The entire Southern Water Country knew that Prince Lin was about to favor Princess Lin with the heavens.
Nangong Lin and Yan Xiaoxi walked to their own seats. They had long since become accustomed to this kind of gaze.
Yan Xiaoxi continued to eat, quietly waiting for the good show to begin. Her feeling was telling him that Nangong Zhen's decision to take in his concubine was not an ordinary one, and there must be some hidden secrets behind it.
The auspicious hour was approaching and the guests had already arrived.
At this moment, Nangong Xiao had not appeared. Even Imperial Concubine Xiao had not appeared. It could be imagined how much trouble the father and son had gotten into for the mysterious woman.
Even so, Nangong Zhen had gone all out to marry the mysterious woman into his family. This was truly unimaginable.
Yan Xiaoxi did not believe that Nangong Zhen would marry her because he liked her. To him, as long as he was useful, he would condescend to have a glance at her. Otherwise, it would be beneath him to look at her.
"His Highness the Crown Prince has arrived." Another powerful sound echoed throughout the entire hall.
"His Highness the Crown Prince is well." The officials stood up and bowed.
"Get up." Nangong Zhen was wearing a red wedding dress. The red dress and the color of his blood also proved his killing intent.
The next moment, under the lead of a palace maid, a woman with a head covered walked in gracefully with an exquisite figure.
From the first moment she saw the woman, Yan Xiaoxi felt a sense of déjà vu. Even if she did not see the person's face, his body, temperament, and the air flow around him made her think of one person. Liu Zhixue's figure actually appeared in her mind.
That Liu Zhixue who had been ordered by Nangong Xiao to not enter the Southern Water Country.
The woman stopped by Yan Xiaoxi's side for a few seconds before continuing onward.
"Little Linlin, she .." Yan Xiaoxi wanted to ask Nangong Lin if he felt that the mysterious woman was Liu Zhixue.
"Right." Nangong Lin nodded. Just like Yan Xiaoxi, he recognized Liu Zhixue at a glance.
Even though they did not see the face under the hood, the two of them both felt that she was Liu Zhixue.
Instantly, countless questions surfaced in his mind.
Back then, Nangong Zhen had resolutely refused to marry Liu Zhixue. Why, in the blink of an eye, would there be such a great change?
There was definitely something that they did not know about. This was the reason why Nangong Zhen had married Liu Zhixue.
The woman stood beside Nangong Zhen. As she was a concubine, there were many forms of etiquette that could be dispensed with.
"She, Hua Ruimeng, will become this crown prince's secondary concubine from now on." Nangong Lin pointed at the girl beside him as he spoke and lifted the veil covering her face.
Upon hearing the name 'Hua Ruo Meng', Yan Xiaoxi and Nangong Lin looked at each other. Why wasn't it Liu Zhixue?
Could they have guessed wrongly?
However, in the next second, they were able to see the woman's true appearance, and it just so happened that they were able to verify their suspicions.
Everyone in the entire Southern Water Country knew of this face.
Now, not only had she changed her name and entered the Southern Water Country, she had even become the Crown Prince's secondary wife.
Needless to say, he truly did have some ability.
The hall was completely silent. The ministers had all experienced many vicissitudes of life and had only just climbed to their current positions. There were many things that could be seen through with a single glance.
Even though everyone knew that she was Liu Zhixue, since her highness the crown prince had said that she was Hua Ruo Meng, then she must be Hua Ruo Meng.
However, Yan Xiaoxi insisted on provoking Nangong Zhen's bottom line. She stood up and asked, "Your Highness, why does your new wife look so similar to Sister Liu?"
"The world is big, and people are alike." The meaning behind those words were very clear. Nangong Zhen wanted to say that Hua Ruo Meng only looked similar to Liu Zhixue.
"Yes." Yan Xiaoxi smiled and agreed.
"Meng'er is not Liu Zhixue." Nangong Zhen continued to explain.
"Is that so? This concubine doesn't think the Crown Prince's side concubine is similar to Miss Liu, but looks exactly the same." Yan Xiaoxi rebutted without fear.
Hua Ruo Meng looked at Yan Xiaoxi and replied, "Do Meng'er and Miss Liu really look that much like each other? It's an honor for Meng'er. "
Her voice was very gentle, gentle like water. It was in stark contrast to Liu Zhixue's arrogant and aggressive tone.
A person's appearance, voice, tone, and temperament were all unique.
The Hua Ruo Meng in front of them was completely different from Liu Zhixue in other ways, apart from her similar appearance. This made the ministers puzzled. Could it be that Hua Ruo Meng was really not Liu Zhixue?
