Chapter 377: He Has a Legitimate Wife

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Feng Yili was very calm when he heard this. It was as though he had expected this. He carried the little bun before he said coldly, “Let’s go.”

Feng Yili’s oppressive aura made Zheng Tong sweat profusely. He said respectfully, “This way please, King of Youshan.”

At the same time, Zheng Tong looked at the little bun in Feng Yili’s arms, and his heart skipped a beat. At the same time, he thought to himself, ‘It’s really true that the King of Youshan has a child. How can Consort Mu be willing to marry the Sixth Princess to him?’

In the imperial study.

Consort Mu’s eyes were red as she cried to Chu Zai, looking very pitiful.

“Your Majesty, the King of Youshan already has a child. If Zhihe marries him, won’t she become a stepmother?”

Chu Zai had always found Consort Mu beautiful. He naturally took pity on her when he saw her in such a state. He slowly said, “Although that Li Cheng’an already has a son, it doesn’t mean he has a legitimate wife. After all, all the vassal kings in Xichu have to report to the imperial court when they marry a legitimate wife. There’s no report from him at all. This means that the child’s biological mother is just a lowly concubine.”

Li Cheng’an was the name of the King of Youshan. 𝙛𝓻𝙚𝙚𝔀𝙚𝓫𝓷𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝒎

“Your Majesty, you’re right. However, isn’t it ridiculous that a concubine has already given birth to a bast*rd before he even has a legitimate wife?” Consort Mu said indignantly. She naturally wanted her daughter to marry into the King of Youshan’s Residence without any worries, but now she found out that the King of Youshan had a bast*rd child.

At this moment, someone said mockingly from the entrance, “Consort Mu, if I’m not mistaken, you gave birth before the Empress did, right? Isn’t that ridiculous as well?”

Following that, Feng Yili strode into the imperial study with the little bun in his arms. He was still wearing his fanged mask, and his aura was extremely cold at this moment. He looked at Consort Mu with a dark gaze as though he wanted to kill her.

The expression on Consort Mu’s face froze when she was caught bad-mouthing. However, she quickly regained her composure. After all, she was honorable Consort Mu while he, Li Cheng’an; the King of Youshan, was just a vassal king. Moreover, he was disliked by the Emperor. In her mind, he had no choice but to put up with her words and had no right to refute her words.

Consort Mu took a deep breath before she said shrilly, “King of Youshan, do you not know the etiquette? You dare to bring your son with you to meet the Emperor. Are you looking down on the prestige of the Emperor?”

At the same time, Consort Mu looked at the little bun. Seeing how cute the little bun was, she sneered inwardly and thought to herself, ‘To think that disfigured person like him actually has such a son…’

Chu Zai remained silent, intending to embarrass Feng Yili. After all, the King of Youshan’s Residence actually raised a child for so long without the Emperor’s knowledge.

Feng Yili said indifferently, “There’s no law in Xichu that prohibits a vassal king from having children, right? There’s also no law that prohibits an official from bringing his children to meet the Emperor, right? Moreover, I didn’t enter the imperial palace today to meet the Emperor. I was suddenly summoned by the Emperor, and my son was with me. Don’t tell me that I’m supposed to abandon the child like an irresponsible father?” Chu Zai’s expression was extremely gloomy.

‘Is Li Cheng’an questioning me, as the Emperor?’

Consort Mu said indignantly in a shrill voice, “Li Cheng’an! If you want to marry my daughter, you better throw this bast*rd away! Otherwise, you can forget about being the Emperor’s son-in-law.”

In Consort Mu’s opinion, the marriage was a good chance for Feng Yili to climb the social ladder. As such, she was confident that he would cherish this opportunity.

Feng Yili’s eyes shone with killing intent when he heard Consort Mu address the little bun as a ‘bast*rd’.

‘She really has a death wish!’

“Consort Mu, I have no interest in becoming the Emperor’s son-in-law. I

already have a legitimate wife, and she’s this child’s biological mother,” Feng Yili said icily.

‘What?’

Consort Mu felt dizzy with anger when she heard this, and she almost fell. Based on Feng Yili’s words, it was clear that he looked down on her daughter. She was so angry that her heart hurt.

‘Where did he get the guts to look down on my daughter and marry a lowly woman as his legitimate wife?’

Chu Zai’s expression was also very unsightly. He suppressed his anger and asked, “King of Youshan, why didn’t I know that you already have a legitimate wife? Which family is she from?”

“My wife is very reserved. She’s not from a noble family, but she’s very virtuous and smart. I only have her in my heart, and I have no intention of marrying anyone else. Your Majesty, please don’t try to bestow a marriage on me anymore,” Feng Yili said flatly.

‘She’s not from a noble family?’

Chu Zai and Consort Mu heaved a sigh of relief when they heard Feng Yili’s words. After all, it would be bad if Feng Yili, whom they perceived as ambitious, married a woman from a noble and influential family.

Although Chu Zai and Consort Mu were relieved, it did not mean they were ready to let this matter go. After all, Feng Yili had openly shown disdain for Chu Zhihe. novelbuddy(.)com

Chu Zai said categorically, “Since you’re already married, you should send someone to bring her here. It’s about time for everyone to meet the dignified lady of the King of Youshan’s Residence.”

Needless to say, Chu Zai was not interested in meeting a village woman who came from a humble background. He only wanted to make things difficult for Feng Yili. Apart from that, he had noticed the change in Feng Yili’s expression when Feng Yili spoke about his wife. It was clear that Feng Yili really treasured his wife. With this, he felt that he had grasped Feng Yili’s weakness, and he hoped to use Feng Yili’s weakness against Feng Yili.

Feng Yili could naturally guess Chu Zai’s thoughts. A slight mocking smile appeared on his face before he replied indifferently, “Alright. I’ll send a letter back and get someone to escort her to the capital.”

It was rare for Feng Yili to give in so Chu Zai no longer made things difficult for Feng Yili. He waved his hand and said impatiently, “Alright. You brought your child into the palace today, and he might feel frightened in an unfamiliar place.

You can leave.”

“I’ll take my leave then,” Feng Yili said before he turned around and left with the little bun.

After Feng Yili left, Consort Mu could not help but complain, “Your Majesty, are you going to let him off just like that? He’s humiliating us! Zhihe is excellent, but he actually refuses to marry her!”

In Consort Mu’s opinion, her daughter was a noble princess. It was a big honor for Feng Yili to marry her daughter.

“My beloved consort, I bestowed the marriage on Li Cheng’an because I wanted to restrain him. However, now that he has a legitimate wife, it means that he has a weakness. I already thought of a better way to deal with him so there’s no need to sacrifice Zhihe’s happiness,” Chu Zai said patiently.

Consort Mu’s expression eased slightly when she heard this. She said unhappily, “Li Cheng’an is an idiot for refusing to be a Prince Consort. He really deserves to marry a lowly woman.”

After a beat, she continued to say, “By the way, Your Majesty, this matter reminds me that Zhihe is of marriageable age. The Eldest Princess and the Third Princess already have a match, but Zhihe still doesn’t have one…”

Chu Zai asked directly, “My beloved consort, do you have a candidate in mind?” Consort Mu’s eyes flashed as she replied, “I think the Third Prince of Beixiao is a very good candidate…”
