Male superiority and female superiority: forced love
Chapter 58 The Duke and his wife
There were two other people in the carriage.
Ruan Chuyin's sudden arrival surprised them.
"Are you Miss Ruan Chuyin Ruan?"
Ye Sanning looked at her beauty that was so stunning that it could shame the moon and flowers, and his eyes gradually became complicated.
Duke Qin Lang of Zhenguo controlled his emotions relatively steadily, his face remained calm, but his thoughts were no less than his wife's.
Ruan Chuyin sat up straight under this inquiring gaze, straightened her clothes calmly, and slowly shifted her gaze to the two people's faces.
They were probably a couple. The man wore a golden crown and a navy blue robe with a nine-dragon, five-clawed pattern. His face bore a striking resemblance to Qin Guanzhi, and he looked majestic and imposing, his eyes full of experience, as if they could see through people's hearts at a glance.
The woman sitting next to him was over forty years old. Her facial features were bright and beautiful, and her posture was very elegant. She exuded the temperament of being either rich or noble. However, she was too thin and looked unwell. The ring on her waist was particularly unique. The seven jade beads the size of a small fingernail inlaid on it were unforgettable.
Ruan Chuyin had already guessed that they were Qin Guanzhi's parents, and she was so nervous that she almost blurted out "Hello, uncle and aunt."
She was surprised that the two elders would come forward to rescue her personally.
"Hello, uncle and aunt, I'm Ruan Chuyin. Aren't Young Master Qin and A Yu here?"
"You don't know?" Ye Sanning was stunned. Her son had stabbed the King of Linhuai three times for her, a scene that had spread throughout the city, known to everyone, young and old. How could this girl not know? Her heart was suddenly filled with waves, and her eyes were filled with heartache.
The atmosphere gradually became solemn.
Ruan Chuyin keenly caught the hidden meaning in her words, making her feel as if she should have known something but missed it.
"Aunt, I came to Liangcheng two days ago. It was Young Master Qin who went out... Did something happen?" She was very nervous and her mind began to wander.
Ye Sangning choked and glanced at her husband, but his expression was even more heart-wrenching, and the peak between his eyebrows was almost reaching the sky.
Qin Lang had no choice but to admit his son's failure. Despite all the suffering he'd endured, the girl still called him Young Master Qin. There might never be another victim like Guan Zhi in the world.
"Oh." He let out a breath of foul air with a heavy heart.
"After you left that day, Guan Zhi stabbed Prince Linhuai three times. Now he's been thrown into the Heavenly Prison by the Emperor, awaiting his fate, and Prince Linhuai remains unconscious." Qin Lang's face was filled with sorrow and helplessness. He gazed at Ruan Chuyin's stunning beauty, the one that had captivated countless heroes, and a wave of worry washed over him.
Now that he has found her, what should he do with her? What can he do with her?
"What? Young Master Qin stabbed King Linhuai three times?" Ruan Chuyin screamed in shock.
My thoughts were like a kite with a broken string, and my heart was pounding.
The chill instantly seeped into her bones and surged to her limbs like a tide, forcing her to hug her arms in an attempt to relieve the excruciating pain.
"Can I meet him?" Ruan Chuyin had a lot of things she wanted to ask Qin Guanzhi and say to him.
"Okay, but you have to go with me to meet the prince first." Qin Lang nodded slightly.
"Why do we have to go see the prince?" Ruan Chuyin suddenly became uneasy.
"Save Guanzhi." Qin Lang replied concisely with four words and said no more.
Jiang Wenzhou had said that as long as he could find Ruan Chuyin, he would have a way to break the impasse. Now that he had found her, life or death, rebellion or non-rebellion, all depended on this one move.
Upon hearing this, Ruan Chuyin immediately suppressed her doubts and cooperated obediently. Saving lives was the most important thing, and the rest could only be done one step at a time.
Seeing her with her head drooping like a child who had done something wrong, Ye Sanning felt bad. But when he thought about it, he realized that she couldn't be blamed for this.
There are countless beauties in Liangcheng, but there is no one as beautiful as Ruan Chuyin.
Ye Sanning knew his son very well. On the surface, he seemed to be peaceful and at ease with the world, but deep down he was as stubborn as a rock and would never give in on what he believed was right.
It was because of this that he became the disciple with the highest attainments in swordsmanship in the Wangxi Sect. It was also because of this that he rejected ten noble ladies and left home without hesitation to make a living in Wushui Town.
Now that he has met Ruan Chuyin, which other noble lady could catch his eye?
The tears of a beauty, the heart of a hero, the bad reputation he bears, and the black hair turns white.
After being torn to pieces and shed blood, in the end, it just turned into a nameless jade flower, blooming alone.
While it might seem like the flower of love is indifferent to the water of love, Ruan Chuyin's words just now didn't mention the Prince of Linhuai at all, which made Ye Sanning feel that her son still held a place in the girl's heart, at least more important than Jiang Xuanzhou. Therefore, Chuyi's claim that Ruan Chuyin admired the Prince of Linhuai and had given him a token of love didn't seem credible to her. After all, didn't she wear the hairpin her son gave her every day?
So, he spoke slowly, "Miss Ruan, when Guanzhi received your token in prison, he was so anxious that he immediately broke free from his shackles and nearly escaped. Later, A Yu persuaded him to stop. It was Guanzhi who asked us and his master, Qi Jianshen, to come and rescue you.
"I heard from A Yu that it was Guan Zhi who initially saved you in Wushui Town, and it was he who kindly took you in and took care of you."
Having said this, she paused and her eyes suddenly became sharp.
Qin Lang didn't quite understand what the lady meant by this, and couldn't help but look at her.
At this time, Ruan Chuyin had already raised her head, her pupils trembling involuntarily, and the guilt in her heart was like two mountains pressing on her shoulders, making it difficult for her to breathe.
She didn't dare to respond, but nodded her heavy head slightly, with tears in her eyes.
Ye Sanning watched her, her face about to burst into tears, and her expression softened slightly. She knew it sounded rude, but she had to say it. She couldn't let her son pay so much for nothing!
Then, he changed to a rather calm tone and continued, "So, you owe my son two favors in total. I wonder how you plan to repay them? What will you use to repay them?"
At this time, Qin Lang had completely understood his wife's intention. He turned his gaze to Ruan Chuyin and slightly adjusted his sitting position.
But Ruan Chuyin didn't understand. She just felt that every cell in her body was trembling, and she had no idea how to respond.
Now she only had more than 10,000 taels of silver in her pocket, which she could not afford at all. Moreover, the kindness that Mr. Qin had shown her could not be repaid with just silver.
The aura of the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo put a lot of psychological pressure on her, which shocked her so much that she thought that Master Qin's mother wanted her to repay her love with her life.
Ye Sangning noticed that Ruan Chuyin's face turned pale instantly, and even her breathing became extremely rapid. Thinking that she was unwilling to marry Guan Zhi, her face suddenly darkened.
At this time, the carriage slowly stopped at the gate of the Prince's Mansion.
"Okay, let's discuss everything after we meet His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." Qin Lang patted his wife's hand, signaling her not to say any more.
His wife was good in every way, except that she had a strong sense of chivalry. People who weren't familiar with her would inevitably find her overbearing and difficult to get along with. Look, she scared the little girl.
