Chapter 1423: Jinx
Moreover, the old emperor had ruthlessly scammed Xiao Jingrui according to what she had said.
After Xiao Jingrui went to the palace to break off the engagement, she took advantage of the opportunity to make Xiao Jingyu fall to her death.
Of course, she had planned all of this to prove what she had said. Those who wanted to marry Jiang Zhennan would be jinxed to death!
However, instead of hearing about Xiao Jingyu's death, she was only disfigured.
There must be something going on.
Lin Yuelan touched the green bracelet beside her hand and said," Little Green, go and ask around. What is Xiao Jingrui doing?"
"Yes, sister!" It was a clear child's voice as usual.
Then, a wisp of green smoke that was invisible to the naked eye floated towards the corner.
Jiang Zhennan came in from outside and saw Lin Yuelan frowning. He walked forward and asked," Yue 'er, what's wrong?"
Lin Yuelan voiced her doubts," The news of Xiao Jingyu's death should have been spread, but now it's said that Xiao Jingyu was almost disfigured. There's something wrong with this, so I asked Little Green to find out what Xiao Jingrui is up to."
After Jiang Zhennan heard Lin Yuelan's words, he said," Something is wrong! Now, we could only wait for Little Green's news!"
In the Imperial Palace, in the royal study.
When Yuwen Ling heard that the Black Cloud Kingdom had already broken off the engagement, she broke down.
Previously, in order to take revenge on Lin Yuelan, not only was her mother grounded, but she had also been demoted from one of the four imperial concubines to a talent. This was a difference of heaven and earth.
But this was nothing.
What made her furious but terrified was: She actually married into the Aduo Chai Country!
When she received the imperial edict, it was simply a nightmarish existence.
She didn't want to marry into another country, and she didn't want to marry into the Aduo Chai Country.
She had heard that Aduo Chai was a very backward and poor country. The men there were all like bears, dark and strong and very ugly. Most importantly, even if she married into the palace, she would not have a palace. She could only live in tents and eat nothing except goat's milk wine and roasted mutton. There was nothing to eat, let alone the delicacies in the palace.
As long as she didn't marry into the Aduo Chai Kingdom, she would be willing to marry into the family of any prince or minister of the Longyan Kingdom.
Because, with her status as a princess, if she were to marry a son of a noble family, those people would have to flatter her, coax her, and follow her every wish.
In this way, her days were not considered difficult.
Therefore, she would rather marry in Longyan Country than marry in a backward and barbaric country.
However, when she heard that Princess Linglong of the Black Clouds Kingdom was going to marry Jiang Zhennan as his wife, she was angry and jealous. However, after these emotions passed, she felt happy.
Hmph, this is karma!
'Lin Yuelan, you didn't allow me to marry Jiang Zhennan and even ruined my reputation because you've set your eyes on Jiang Zhennan. You can't let any other woman have him.
'Now, a princess from another country had easily become Jiang Zhennan's wife, but you didn't even dare to say a word. You could only watch as another woman shared your man.
'Lin Yuelan, are you in pain and despair?
'The more painful you are, the happier I feel. Haha…'
The more Yuwen Ling thought about it, the more excited she became. In the end, she didn't even feel angry or angry about her mother's rank dropping or her marriage to the Aduo Chai Country.
However, who knew that not long after that, there was news of the Black Clouds Kingdom breaking off the engagement?
She sent people to ask around, but she couldn't find anything. She only heard that the Black Clouds Kingdom had called off the engagement because Princess Linglong would choke on anything she ate after the Emperor had bestowed her with a royal decree. Even if she ate soup, her face would turn purple. If she weren't rescued in time, she would die.
She was shocked and furious!
Why did she and Xiao Jingyu, who liked Jiang Zhennan, get into trouble one after another? Why was Lin Yuelan the only one who was standing by Jiang Zhennan's side, safe and sound?
Could it be that Jiang Zhennan's fate as a jinx only affected others and not Lin Yuelan?
How unfair were the heavens?
Since Princess Linglong could break off the engagement, why couldn't she?
Therefore, right after the Black Clouds Kingdom broke off the engagement, Yuwen Ling made a scene in the royal study!
"Imperial Father, I won't marry. I don't want to marry into Aduo Chai Country. Imperial Father, I beg you!"Yuwen Ling's voice was filled with tears, and he appeared to be in extreme pain.
However, Yuwen Longyan remained indifferent!
To him, going through a marriage alliance was Yuwen Ling's only value!
Looking at such a cold and heartless father, Yuwen Ling was extremely disappointed. She gritted her teeth and directly crashed into the pillar of the royal study.
Since there was no hope, it was better to die!
