Unbridled Medical Expert Consort: Demon Prince, Be Good-Chapter 73.2 - Bestowing Marriage Upon Nalan Ye
Chapter 73b: Bestowing Marriage Upon Nalan Ye
Nalan Ye’s handsome face appeared incomparably grim and even carried a trace of solemness. “Everyone knows that the words of a lord can not be taken back. When His Majesty’s golden mouth speaks, it’s as good as set in stone. What’s more, this time, even an imperial edict has been issued and made known to everyone. If at this time, I rashly go to meet with His Majesty to have him revoke his command, tell me, wouldn’t His Majesty’s dragon countenance become furious?”
Luo Qing Luan was just about to say something when Nalan Ye suddenly smiled. “Even though I’m willing to marry you, I still won’t force you. If you insist on withdrawing on this marriage, then you can personally go tell His Majesty.”
“This was caused by your plots and machinations to begin with. Now, you even come and force me?” Once she heard Nalan Ye’s nearly scoundrelly words, Luo Qing Luan immediately gnashed her teeth in anger.
Nalan Ye shrugged his shoulders, displaying a very innocent expression. “You’ve really wronged me. How can I be willing to force you? As long as you agree to get married, you’ll become this Prince’s consort. I can’t even love you dearly enough, how can I make things difficult for you?”
Seeing him extend his hand towards her, as if he wanted to get fresh with her, Luo Qing Luan promptly took a step back and answered with vigilance, “Then fine, Nalan Ye, if you don’t go, then I’ll go myself. I really don’t believe that His Majesty will truly be so unreasonable, insisting on randomly forcing two mandarin ducks together (forcing affections on two people).” After she finished speaking, she turned around to leave.
“Wait, wait……”
The corners of Nalan Ye’s mouth curved up. “I should first remind you about something. Recently, the crown prince has just left for the border with his troops. His Majesty is very worried. If you go to see His Majesty, you must remember to speak carefully. Otherwise……if His Majesty’s mood turn sour, he may directly sentence the General’s Mansion with the crime of resisting and failing to obey an imperial decree. At that time, for sure, a happy occasion will turn into funeral arrangements.”
Eyelids twitching, Luo Qing Luan couldn’t restrain her rage from violently bubbling up.
No wonder this scoundrel, Nalan Ye, made her go herself. So it was like that! Apparently, he was certain that she wouldn’t be able to go and will have to marry him! Not only had she already cancelled an engagement not long ago, if she went again this time, she’s afraid she’d really give the emperor a bad impression.
Even if the emperor was magnanimous and didn’t bother with these things, what if the emperor bestowed marriage upon her again to the crown prince, then could she really still refuse? After being rejected again and again, how far would the emperor’s face drop? Very possibly, he would be enraged on the scene and directly execute the entire Luo family as well as confiscate their property, right?
After figuring out this point, Luo Qing Luan forced herself to cool down.
“Actually, Miss Luo, even if you don’t like me, when you become my consort, there’ll definitely be benefits for you.”
Watching Luo Qing Luan remain silent, Nalan Ye opened his mouth again. As before, he was neither rushed, nor slow. His manner was as calm as water as he said unhurriedly, “Didn’t you want me to help you investigate your father’s concubine’s matter? This matter happened more than ten years ago already and is indeed very troublesome to investigate. Of course, if you become my consort, your matters will immediately become my family matters. It will naturally be incumbent upon me to help you.”
“Moreover, last time, your father’s concubine was unable to harm you. She surely will think of a way to continue to deal with you. Staying at the general’s mansion will likely not guarantee your safety, but if you become the Princess of Chu (her title as Prince of Chu’s consort), your father’s concubine will certainly not dare to make a move as she wishes.”
Astonishment flashing through her eyes, Luo Qing Luan was full of suspicion as she looked at Nalan Ye, “You would be so kind as to think through things on my behalf?”
Nalan Ye smiled and replied, “Looks like your prejudice towards me is very deep? However, I nevertheless feel more and more that you’re not bad. Miss Luo, it’s really not a bad idea to marry me. You might as well think it over?”
Her previous rage gradually faded away. Understanding that there’s no way to cancel the marriage under the circumstances, Luo Qing Luan didn’t merely consider the situation before her. Based on what Nalan Ye said, it really was somewhat reasonable. If she moved to live at Prince of Chu’s Mansion, she wouldn’t need to be wary of Luo Cheng and Wang Xue Ru’s every mood anymore. Even more so, she wouldn’t need to be on guard all the time against someone secretly making a move against her. She also would have even more time to do the things that she wanted to do.
Relying on her identity as the Princess of Chu, it would also be easier for her to handle matters in a much more easy and relaxed way.
It’s just that this Nalan Ye……could she really trust him?
Luo Qing Luan was just about to think better of things when suddenly, she felt a figure attacking her.
A distinctly cold and raw breath hit her directly in the face. The speed was astonishingly quick. She suddenly became alarmed and wanted to fall back, yet it was too late.
Nalan Ye already embraced her into his chest, one hand placed around her slender waist firmly confining her. The distance between them was very close. They could practically feel each other’s breath and warmth. Luo Qing Luan subconsciously wanted to protest, but she just started to open her mouth when the other’s movements were even faster. He lowered his head and already kissed her.
Unlike his gentleness and indifference from a moment ago, Nalan Ye seemed as if he was plundering her, as he toyed willfully with her lips. His other hand stuck to the back of her head, making her totally incapable of breaking away. He was so insatiable, as if he was punishing her for wanting to cancel the marriage. Using force, he extracted her breath.
Caught off guard, Luo Qing Luan was already kissed by Nalan Ye solidly and inextractibly.
Just when she wanted to recklessly bite him, Nalan Ye actually promptly released her.
Panting for breath, Luo Qing Luan felt both embarrassed and angry, her face red through and through. Once she saw Nalan Ye rubbing his lips as if he had not fully expressed himself and appearing as if he was pondering the flavor from just now, she was simply so angry that she wanted to kill him. Without giving it any thought, she already quickly found the black out powder that she hid on her body. Just when she wanted to scatter it at him, Nalan Ye actually detained her wrists and smiled in an incomparably crafty way. “Miss Luo, are you looking to knock me out, so you can do as you wish with me? Even though I’m very willing, but since we’re getting married already, how about you wait a couple more days? I’m afraid I won’t be able to bear your passion if you’re too impatient.”
“Shameless!” A burst of fury suppressed what little bit of embarrassment she felt from before. Luo Qing Luan wished that she could kill the man before her.
Just as her other hand rapidly found the silver needles and wanted to stick them into him to paralyze him, the latter stepped away as fast as the wind. He took something out and placed it on top of the table. “Miss Luo, please don’t forget. You already said that you’ll agree to one request of mine. Your promise is here in black and white.”
Luo Qing Luan paused and saw Nalan Ye smile like a sly fox, looking at her through narrowed eyes, thin lips continuing in an easy manner. “I’ve already analyzed the advantages and disadvantages for you. Right now, I’m making a request. Be this prince’s consort!”
