"Well, forget what I said. But you are the crown prince. What's wrong with having three wives and four concubines? The most important thing is to quickly leave behind an heir! I will grant you a marriage with Rita right now!"
……
Chapter 82: Possessed by the devil!
"In any case, this matter has been decided first. You can choose a date for the wedding." Emperor Ming showed his majesty as an emperor.
"...Yes, father." Yun Ling looked at his old father with a serious face and knew that he was doing this for his own good.
In this era, the idea that there are three types of unfilial behavior, and that the worst is to have no descendants, is deeply rooted in people's minds.
Yun Ling had indeed not fulfilled his duty as a descendant, and Emperor Ming did this to clear Yun Ling's name, at least so that he would not be criticized within the court.
He may not care, but Emperor Ming cannot.
This wedding can also silence the gossips of the people, and if a child is born, there will be no need to worry.
As for what will happen next, there is naturally no need to read too much.
The next day, with Prime Minister Rita completely bewildered, she was granted marriage to Yun Ling...
She never planned to get married.
Moreover, she had never seen the prince. Although there were rumors in the palace that he was a natural prodigy, that was more than 20 years ago.
There was also the battle report from yesterday, in which one man wiped out all the invading troops.
It was hard not to make her suspect that Emperor Ming was building up momentum for him.
She knew nothing about his appearance, talent, or anything else.
But the emperor had issued the decree himself, so what could she do?
That night, Yun Ling found her.
"You mean the prince is here?"
Rita, who was writing at her desk, heard the news which made her somewhat unhappy.
"Let him wait for a while, I'll take some time to dress up." Rita rubbed her eyebrows and turned back to her room.
Her short, soft gray-gold hair covered her left eye, leaving her exposed right eye like a gorgeous ruby, and the teardrop mole at the corner of her eye made the already pretty girl even more charming.
"Hello, Prime Minister Rita." There was no emotion in Yun Ling's eyes, and he greeted her lightly.
"Haha, Your Highness the Crown Prince, just call me Rita... I wonder what brings Your Highness the Crown Prince here this time?" Rita secretly looked at Yun Ling.
Although he had a handsome appearance, his lips were slightly pale, and he coughed from time to time. His body did not look strong either. Rather than a cultivator, he looked more like a playboy who indulged in excessive sexual activities.
Can he wipe out an entire foreign enemy force by himself?
Rita certainly didn't believe it.
"Of course I have something to discuss with Miss Rita." Yun Ling clearly caught a hint of disdain in her eyes, but didn't care.
"Your Highness, please speak frankly." Rita calmly poured Yun Ling another cup of tea.
"First of all, I want to apologize to you for my father's behavior. He forced a marriage contract with you without your permission, Miss Rita."
Rita was slightly surprised, but did not interrupt and continued to listen attentively.
"Secondly, I hope you can cooperate with me in a play."
"Acting?" Rita was a little confused.
"Father, you did this just to help me wash away some bad reputation, but only you and I know what actually happened. I have no intention of staying in the imperial capital, nor do I want to be the emperor." Yun Ling said seriously.
Since Rita was able to hold the position of prime minister, she could certainly understand the hidden meaning of Yun Ling's words.
This arranged marriage is just a formality. After that, Yun Ling will return to Taixu Mountain and nothing will happen between him and Rita.
But in exchange, her position as prime minister could be extremely stable. After all, she was the legitimate wife of the crown prince.
"I see..." Rita looked at Yun Ling with a faint smile on her lips.
"It seems that I am not charming enough to attract His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." Rita said with pretended sadness.
"Why are you, a twenty-year-old woman, acting so pretentiously? If you really want something to happen, I can put myself in a difficult position." Yun Ling continued with her words.
The corners of Rita's mouth twitched slightly. This person...
"Okay, I won't joke with Miss Rita anymore. Now that things have come to this, Miss Rita doesn't have to worry about her future. Please take care of yourself." Yun Ling bowed slightly and left.
"Nominal husband?...Interesting." Rita looked at Yun Ling's back as he left.
The wedding was held as scheduled. Yun Ling kept his promise and did not do anything out of line with her. A week later, he left here and returned to Taixu Mountain.
Yun Ling did not hide the fact of his marriage, and the news soon reached Taixu Mountain.
Chi Yuan felt inexplicably upset, but also had a sense of relief. At the same time, he was a little puzzled about Yun Ling's return to Taixu Mountain so quickly.
"Since you are married, why don't you spend more time with your wife?" Chi Yuan asked.
"Although she is my wife, we are only husband and wife in name only. Master is the only one in my heart. If Master doesn't believe me, you can use Yu Duchen..."
"Okay, get out now." Chi Yuan said coldly.
"Yes, Master." Yun Ling left quietly.
Chi Yuan's thoughts became confused again, and he recited the Sword Heart Technique silently several times before he calmed down.
Since the confession, Yun Ling has been increasingly open about his love for Chi Yuan, and no matter how coldly she treats him, he persists.
During dinner at night, the junior brothers and sisters were all curious about Yun Ling’s marriage.
After Yun Ling's explanation, they finally realized that it was just a show.
"Can Senior Sister Chaoyu breathe a sigh of relief now?" "Yeah, Senior Sister Chaoyu looked distracted all day."
Sisters Jiang Wanxi and Jiang Wanru spoke to Lin Chaoyu jokingly.
"You two, stop talking nonsense!" Lin Chaoyu blushed at the teasing, and stuffed a chicken leg into each of their mouths.
After doing all this, she glanced at Yun Ling secretly again. Seeing that Yun Ling did not react, her expression became much gloomier.
Yun Ling once again returned to his leisurely daily routine, basking in the sun and practicing swordplay every day, and occasionally going down the mountain to fight demons or something. His life was quite happy.
As an emperor, you have to be busy with official duties every day, so how can you have time to relax?
During this period, Cheng Lingshuang also comprehended the divine essence, becoming the third person to comprehend the divine essence.
But it's still a long way from Yun Ling and Chi Yuan...
"Wanru, what's wrong with you? You're so flustered." Yun Ling looked at Jiang Wanru, who was tiptoeing aside, in confusion.
"No...it's okay!" Jiang Wanru immediately hid her hands behind her back, cold sweat constantly pouring down from her head.
"Are you thinking of playing a trick on Ling Shuang and Su Yi again?" Yun Ling looked at her suspiciously.
"I...how could that be, ha...hahaha..."
Jiang Wanru immediately laughed.
"Goodbye, Big Brother!"
Jiang Wanru fetched a basin of water and returned to her room.
She rolled up her left sleeve and frantically scrubbed the disgusting purple lines on her arm.
"Why...why...why is it like this..." Jiang Wanru's eyes were filled with tears.
Her face was full of fear and despair.
She kept scrubbing until the skin was torn and the flesh began to blur. The whole basin of water was dyed bright red, and the purple lines were still clearly visible.
With a "clang", the basin of water fell to the ground and she sat down on her butt.
As a disciple of Taixu, she knows this kind of thing very well...
She is possessed by a demon!
……
Chapter 83 Su Mei's Calculation
Jiang Wanxi soon discovered the movement in Jiang Wanru's room. Looking at Jiang Wanru's left arm, she covered her mouth with her hand, her face full of disbelief.
"Sister, your hand..."
This matter was not kept secret, and everyone on Taixu Mountain knew about it.
"This... is indeed possessed by a demon." Chi Yuan looked at Jiang Wanru's arm and gave the final conclusion.
Everyone present looked at each other in bewilderment. They had never expected that such a thing would happen on Mount Taixu.
"Master, Junior Sister Wanru is still in the early stages of demonic possession. Is there any way to cure her?" Su Mei asked.
"Since he has been possessed by the devil, there is no cure." Chi Yuan shook his head.
"this..."
Everyone at the scene was silent.
"Let's say goodbye." Chi Yuan said lightly, but it made the sisters Jiang Wanxi and Jiang Wanru pale.
The others felt sorry but didn't say anything.
"Big Brother, can you please persuade the master?"
Chao Yu grabbed Yun Ling's sleeve, her words full of pleading.
"Impossible. The rule of Taixu Mountain is that anyone who enters the demon realm must be killed. You should all be very clear about this."
"However, I can ask Master to give Wanru some more time. At least before you completely lose your mind, I will try my best to prevent Master from taking action."
"But in the meantime, you should not go down the mountain."
Yun Ling shook his head, with a hint of regret in his tone. This was the best he could do.
"Thank...thank you very much, senior brother..." Jiang Wanru looked ashen, but still bowed slightly to Yun Ling.
Tonight, Jiang Wanru's room was filled with endless crying. The two sisters leaned on each other. Lin Chaoyu comforted them, and Su Mei sat beside them, not knowing what she was thinking.
Ma Yanqing followed Su Mei, and Qin Suyi had tears in her eyes.
"Senior Brother, should I feel sad?" Cheng Lingshuang suffered from insomnia for the first time and sat outside in the breeze.
"Well, cherish the time you spend with Wanru." Yun Ling nodded and walked towards Chi Yuan's room.
"Master, I have something to discuss with you."
"come in."
Chi Yuan sat at the table, seemingly waiting for Yun Ling's arrival.
"Are you here to plead for Wanru?" Chi Yuan asked directly.
"Master, what do you think?" Yun Ling asked back.
"I don't know." Chi Yuan was too lazy to guess Yun Ling's thoughts.
"...Can we kill Wanru when she is about to lose control?" Yun Ling asked directly.
"Okay." Chi Yuan said without any hesitation.
This made Yun Ling stunned for a moment, and then he chuckled subconsciously.
"What's so funny?" Chi Yuan frowned.
"Everyone says that immortals are heartless, but in my opinion, people are still easily deceived by appearances." Yun Ling shook his head.
"...Go to bed early." Chi Yuan did not give a direct answer, but drove Yun Ling out of the room.
Since that day, there has been an lingering gloom on Taixu Mountain.
The smiles on everyone's faces faded.
The two sisters cried all day long. Lin Chaoyu bought some powder for Jiang Wanru to cover it up, at least to make her left arm look less scary.
Chi Yuan took Chao Yu down the mountain and went to the South China Sea to pay homage to his friends and Chao Yu's relatives.
"Maybe..." Seeing Chi Yuan leave, Jiang Wanxi had some ideas.
"I advise you not to think too much. Guess why the master didn't bring the eldest brother with him?" Su Mei reminded.
