Unbridled Medical Expert Consort: Demon Prince, Be Good Chapter 73.1 - Bestowing Marriage Upon Nalan Ye

Chapter 73a: Bestowing Marriage Upon Nalan Ye

After sending off Empress Wang, Luo Qing Luan felt relaxed all over. She calculated all sorts of ways before she thought of this method. Right now, Empress Wang’s mind was filled only with the thought of getting pregnant. She simply didn’t have the leisure to be concerned about the crown prince consort. She finally could relax.
However, something that Luo Qing Luan didn’t anticipated very quickly happened. Merely ten days after Nangong Qing lead the troops and left for the border, an imperial edict arrived.
“By the Mandate of Heaven, the emperor states, the daughter of General Luo Cheng, Luo Qing Luan, is good-looking and intelligent elegant and well-mannered. We are extremely pleased and especially bestowed her in marriage to the Prince of Chu, Nalan Ye, who will take the responsibility of finding a propitious day for the wedding. By the emperor.”
Eunuch Wang, who brought the decree, smiled very politely as he handed the imperial edict over to Luo Cheng, whose soul had left him. Eunuch Wang said fawningly, “General Luo, congratulations! Eh? Is General Luo just too happy? I understand. To have his majesty grant the second Miss Luo a marriage with His Lordship the Prince of Chu, it truly is a big happy occasion. If I were you, General Luo, I’m afraid I’ll also be the same, I’ll have difficulty speaking.”
“This……it actually is Prince, His Lordship the Prince of Chu?” Luo Cheng was so shocked that his brain completely blanked out.
Once Eunuch Wang left, Luo Cheng quickly unrolled the imperial edict. Suddenly, a delicate little hand quickly stretched over, practically fighting to snatch away the edict from his hands.
Just as he was getting angry, Luo Cheng saw that it was Luo Qing Luan. Whatever temper he had immediately disappeared. “Qing Luan, His Majesty bestowed you to the Prince of Chu in marriage. Were you aware of this matter beforehand?” After hesitating a little, he still asked this question.
The Prince of Chu was equally honorable, favored, and respected, with his position not lower than the crown prince’s. But once Luo Cheng thought of the Prince of Chu’s title of ‘Iceberg Prince’, as well as that imposing manner, even if it was he was the one who had climbed to this door as in-laws, was it possible for him to still dare to flaunt a father-in-laws’ superior authority in front of Nalan Ye?
How could Luo Qing Luan still be in the mood to answer Luo Cheng’s question?
She was so angry that her hands were trembling. She was unable to understand no matter what. Why was it that when everything was going well, this kind of thing actually happened. She was surprisingly bestowed upon Nalan Ye in marriage? What in the world happened that she didn’t know about?
Unable to stay any longer, she wanted to immediately look for Nalan Ye to get to the bottom of the matter.
Casting away Luo Cheng, she hastily rushed to the Prince of Chu’s mansion. Without any trace of politeness, Luo Qing Luan beat on the door, then kicked it when there was no response.
With a squeak, the door opened. The doorkeeper was about to get angry, but once he saw Luo Qing Luan, he promptly changed to an expression of a fawning smiling face. “Prince’s Consort, you’ve come……”
Hearing the address ‘Prince’s Consort’, Luo Qing Luan nearly exploded from anger. Furious, she entered a study. Nalan Ye was sitting by the side of his desk. He looked at her while smilingly while saying shamelessly, “You’ve come so quickly. Did you find out that you’re getting married to me and is too happy?”
“Too happy? Right now, she’s itching to kill him! Luo Qing Luan was so angry that her beautiful face turned red through and through. With two steps, she charged towards Nalan Ye and slapped a hand on the table. She uttered indignantly, “Nalan Ye, properly explain to me. What really happened with this imperial edict bestowing marriage? Don’t say that you don’t know about it!”.
Nalan Ye smiled indifferently, “Turns out you came to ask me about this matter, but I really don’t know the in’s of the matter. A monarch’s heart is difficult to fathom. His Majesty wants to issue an imperial decree, so what can a subject do?”
Completely different than his former chilly iceberg-like appearance, and also entirely devoid of his strict expression which kept others at bay, Nalan Ye’s expression was gentle, so much so that he was even smiling slightly. That pure and perfectly handsome appearance was like orchids and jade trees. He radiated a refined, scholarly noble aura from head to toe.
“You’re saying you didn’t know what’s going on at all?” Luo Qing Luan certainly didn’t believe him.
Nalan Ye nodded his head while the corners of his mouth curved up slightly before he answered softly. “Yes. After morning court yesterday, His Majesty summoned me to a separate room and told me about the matter of bestowing marriage. How could I dare to refuse and could only accept.”
Hearing this, Luo Qing Luan’s eyes became as round as a ball. She absolutely didn’t believe it and grabbed the sleeves of his garment. “Nalan Ye, you went as far as to accept?”
“After all, we know each other. In any case, marrying you is better than marrying a stranger, right?” As Nalan Ye spoke, he looked at Luo Qing Luan and sized her up. Displaying a somewhat pleased appearance, his continued, “Moreover, your looks really can be considered not too bad and you can play the zither as well as cook. You’re passable as my prince’s consort. Therefore, I consented.”
Luo Qing Luan glared at Nalan Ye gnashing her teeth in anger and said coldly, “Nalan Ye, I’m telling you, immediately go and see His Majesty. Have him cancel the marriage, or else, do you believe or not that I’ll surely set fire to this Prince of Chu’s Mansion of yours!”
“You want to cancel the marriage?” Nalan Ye appeared somewhat surprised.
What’s with the acting this loathsome man was putting up? Everything that had happened was caused by him in the first place. He surprisingly even asked her if she wanted to cancel the marriage? Was he truly taking her to be one of those ignorant girls who couldn’t walk straight after seeing a man and become starry-eyed love-struck fools?
Luo Qing Luan glared fixedly at this two or more faced man in front of her with an expression of someone not to be taken lightly. “Nalan Ye, you don’t like me, I also don’t like you. Why must you force us to be together? I really don’t believe that based on your status, His Majesty would still insist on this matter. If you want to go today, you should go. If you don’t want to go today, you still have to go. In short, I absolutely won’t marry you!”
Frowning, Nalan Ye unexpectedly didn’t get mad because of Luo Qing Luan’s threat. Instead, he appeared even more conscientious as he reflected on this problem.
“It’s not that I don’t want to agree, rather……”
