Yuan Wei's Quick Travel
Chapter 453: Cannon Fodder in Stepmother's Story 25
At this time, Fang Meiyu was completely shocked by Yuan Wei's words. She looked at Yuan Wei in surprise, and for a moment she didn't know whether she should wipe away the tears on her face or let them continue to flow.
It looked quite funny.
After hearing Yuan Wei's words, the prince gnashed his teeth in anger. He roared in rage, "Yuan Xinkai!!"
"Hey, there!"
Yuan Wei responded readily, seemingly unaware of the Crown Prince's anger. She looked at him innocently and asked, "Your Highness, what can I do for you?"
The prince's face was already livid with anger. He widened his eyes and roared at Yuan Wei, "Yuan Xinkai, you are committing treason! Your words and actions are a disgrace to your Zhenguo Mansion!"
Hearing the prince's rebuke, Yuan Wei's expression changed slightly. She put away the smile on her face, her eyes became extremely sharp, staring straight at the prince, and responded without flinching:
"The upbringing of the Zhenguogong Mansion does not allow for indecision or fickleness, nor does it allow for the same kind of fantasies that some people have all day long about having everything they want!"
"Yuan Xinkai!! Know your identity!!"
The prince was so angry at Yuan Wei's words that he almost jumped up. His voice rose an octave and he roared.
He is the prince!
An unknown boy from the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion dared to mock him here!
Eat the bear's heart and the leopard's courage!
The whole world will be his!
A little girl from the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion was insignificant in his eyes, and he was giving the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion a huge honor by being willing to do so.
Yuan Xinkai is so shameless!
The prince's roar was like a thunderclap that exploded in the crowd. The surroundings instantly became silent and everyone didn't know how to react for a moment.
Especially the guards standing by, they were so scared that their faces turned pale and they secretly groaned in their hearts.
These words were not something that these small guards could listen to casually.
Yuan Qilang is so bold and presumptuous that he even dares to complain about the prince without any scruples. Isn't he afraid of being blamed by the prince?
Yuan Wei didn't care about the prince's reaction. She waved her hand perfunctorily, "Yes, yes, you are the prince, and I am just a nobody."
Yuan Wei raised the corners of her mouth slightly, revealing a faint smile, and looked at the prince and continued to ask: "So what do you think?"
What do you think?
The prince certainly had his own plans in mind.
Naturally, he wanted to marry Mei Yu as the Crown Princess. As for the fifth lady of the Yuan family, it would be enough for her to be a concubine.
However, he did not express these thoughts directly, after all, this was not the right occasion.
The prince knew very well that if he said these words here, it would probably cause unnecessary trouble.
He was not concerned about the reputation of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion, but was worried that his father would blame him for this.
After all, the emperor has always been very caring towards the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion. If he said such words here, the emperor would definitely think that he did not know how to consider old friendships.
The prince thought to himself that his father's behavior was sometimes quite puzzling.
If he really wanted me to marry Yuan Wei, why didn't he issue an order to grant the marriage earlier?
It was just a casual remark during a chat, but the deeper meaning behind it is probably not as simple as it seems.
The more the prince thought about it, the more he felt that his father's move was just to stabilize the Duke of Zhenguo, and that the so-called promise might have been just a casual remark.
Yuan Wei couldn't help feeling annoyed when she saw the prince remained silent and showed an indifferent expression on his face.
She did not explode directly, but just chuckled, as if she had anticipated the prince's reaction.
The reason why she tested the prince in this way was not to force him to express his position on the spot, but to let everyone know the prince's true attitude and lay the groundwork for breaking off the engagement in the future.
Originally, Yuan Wei thought that if something unexpected happened to the prince tomorrow, their marriage would naturally come to nothing.
However, today everyone gathered by the stream without any prior arrangement, which undoubtedly brought many variables to the entire situation.
No one can predict what will happen tomorrow. If the prince escapes by chance, the situation that follows will probably be difficult to control.
Thinking of this, Yuan Wei decided not to delay any longer and simply said bluntly: "If Your Highness likes Sister Mei, you can marry her as the Crown Princess. It's just that our Zhenguo Mansion is unlucky and does not have this honor."
Yuan Wei raised the corner of her mouth slightly, and said slowly: "However, I hope His Royal Highness the Crown Prince knows that the legitimate daughter of the Zhenguo Duke's Mansion was also raised in a golden branch and jade leaf, and will definitely not become a concubine."
Her voice was crisp and clear, yet it carried an unquestionable firmness.
As soon as Yuan Wei finished speaking, without giving the prince any chance to respond, she turned around, bowed slightly to the third prince and the eldest prince, then took Yuan Xinyan's hand and left quickly without looking back.
The group walked hurriedly and soon disappeared by the stream.
From the moment Yuan Wei came over, the prince's face began to look extremely ugly, and now it was as if he had been slapped hard in the face.
His lips were tightly pursed, and his originally fair face was now frighteningly pale.
In sharp contrast to the crown prince is the third prince.
The smile on his lips grew wider and wider, and he couldn't hide it no matter what he did.
He secretly sighed in his heart, the prince is so stupid!
The Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion was such a great help, but they just gave up on it.
Still a young boy.
He actually pushed away the most powerful support around him.
So what if my father is partial to me?
Let’s see what excuses he can come up with for the prince!
The prince has simply messed up a good hand!
The eldest prince's gaze fell on Yuan Wei's receding figure.
There was a strong interest in his eyes, as if he was full of curiosity about Yuan Wei and wanted to catch up immediately and have close contact with Yuan Wei.
This was the first time in his life that the eldest prince was so interested in someone.
"Decided?"
Yuan Xinyan stared at Yuan Wei and saw that her face was as calm as a lake, without any ripples, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Yuan Xinyan thought to himself that the series of conversations between Yuan Wei and the prince were undoubtedly an early preparation for breaking off the engagement.
Before Yuan Wei could respond, Yuan Xinyan immediately asked, "Are you willing to give it up?"
That is the throne of the future queen, a position that many women dream of. Now Yuan Wei is going to give it up easily. Does she really have no regrets in her heart?
Yuan Wei narrowed her eyes slightly.
"Decided."
Her voice was clear and firm. "That position was never what I longed for."
Whether it is her or the original owner.
