Shocking Venomous Consort: Frivolous Miss Chapter 674 - The Fifth Princess’ Rejection

Chapter 674: The Fifth Princess’ Rejection

“If you really want to protect Nan Xia, and live up to our Fu family ancestors’ name, this is your only choice,” Fu Chengxing sneered.
“The truth is that you actually want to rely on our strength to get rid the other princes so you can take the throne for yourself, right?” The fifth princess snapped furiously.
How could she not realize Fu Chengxing’s true intentions? This ‘forced’ marriage, if put bluntly, was merely wanting to borrow the might of her and Fu Chengyu to suppress the other princes so that he could take the throne. With Fu Chengxing’s secret forces, plus Fu Chengyu’s forces and her forbidden army, who would dare to oppose them?
Of course, besides this, he probably also had other intentions. Just looking at Fu Chengxing’s gaze, the fifth princess could tell that he had malicious intentions towards her.
“You are not wrong, but you also know that a country cannot go a day without a king. Doing this is also for the sake of Nan Xia.” Fu Chengxing did not deny her accusation.
At that moment, Ling Chuxi was outside the gardens, and she had overhead every single word of their conversation.
Ling Chuxi shuddered in disgust. She had heard that some royal families did have a tradition of blood relation marriages to guarantee the purity of their lineages, but she had always been disgusted by it. She never would have thought that Fu Chengxing would entertain such a ridiculous notion!
‘Is he not afraid of being struck dead by lightning?’ Ling Chuxi had to force herself to stay put and not slap Fu Chengxing into the next century, as she wanted to see how the fifth princess would deal with it.
“Just leave, I will never agree.” Without the slightest bit of hesitation, the fifth princess shook her head. If Fu Chengxing had not brought up such a vulgar request, as long as he really could keep Nan Xia safe, she might have handed over her guards and armies, and persuaded Fu Chengyu to help him take the throne.
However, now the fifth princess could see his true colors. Could such a person really keep Nan Xia safe? Could he let Nan Xia’s citizens live in peace and work without worries?
“Do you just want to watch as Nan Xia’s courts fall into chaos, and our country gets annihilated by Ding Lin Country?!” Fu Chengxing shouted angrily.
“No, but I also do not trust you. If Nan Xia fell into the hands of a vile, despicable, shameless person like you, the country would still experience destruction sooner or later. I will do my best to guard the peace of Nan Xia, and I will live and die with this country. At least I would not feel guilty towards Imperial Father, and have no regrets towards the people of Nan Xia,” the fifth princess declared determinedly.
Hearing the fifth princess’ solemn words, Ling Chuxi nodded in satisfaction. Now this was the fifth princess that she knew. Perhaps at times she made silly mistakes or was a little bit quirky, but she was determined and followed her principles and values.
“Good, good! Since you have decided to stubbornly follow your own path, then don’t blame me for the consequences,” Fu Chengxing snarled, so angry that he was shaking as he pointed at the fifth princess.
Suddenly, a few guards brought a restrained Xia Zhuoyi in. Xia Zhuoyi’s clothes were a mess, and his face was pale. There were even a few sword injuries on his chest, and it was obvious that he had suffered quite a bit.
“What are you trying to do?” The fifth princess’ expression changed instantly.
“It is because of this guy that you are not willing to marry me, right? Fine then, I will show you what happens to those who defy me! Through this, you’ll realize that with or without you, it’s only a matter of time before I take the throne of Nan Xia,” Fu Chengxing said with a murderous expression.
