Chapter 110 The engagement is voided
Chapter 110 The engagement is voided
Wei Shi, Moon Palace
Yue Jinghao was painting in the same way as Li Zhaoyu when she heard the maid come to ask, "Miss, someone has come from the palace. The master wants you to go to the front hall to receive the decree."
Yue Jinghao showed a sarcastic smile and said, "I'll go right away. You go back first."
After the maid left, Manju became a little anxious, "Miss, is it because of the rumors that the prince came to cancel the engagement?"
Yue Jinghao cleaned her hands and scratched Manjue's little nose. "You'll know when you get there."
Seeing that Yue Jinghao was still trying to flirt with her, Agate became even more anxious.
When Yue Jinghong heard that someone had come from the palace, she smiled triumphantly and told Zhenzhu to quickly dress her up. She wanted to go and see it in person on such a good day!
Not only the chief eunuch came from the palace, but the prince also came to Yue Mansion.
Yue Jinghong heard the flattering voices of the old lady and Yue Hanwen at the door.
"Your Highness the Crown Prince~" Yue Jinghong knelt down and saluted with a graceful and moving posture.
The prince had not seen Yue Jinghong for more than a month. Today, Yue Jinghong was more charming and attractive than ever before! "Miss, please don't be polite."
When Yue Jinghong stood up, she saw the prince staring at her. She couldn't help but sigh in her heart, her aunt was right, this face of hers was the magic weapon to ascend to a high position!
Before the prince and Yue Jinghong could say a few words, Yue Jinghao came in.
"Your servant Yue Jing is pleased to see the Crown Prince!"
Unlike Yue Jinghong's beauty and charm, Yue Jinghao always gives people a cold feeling, making people unwilling to spend more time with her. Marrying such a woman would definitely be extremely boring!
The prince just said "hmm" coldly and nothing else.
Yue Jinghao looked indifferent and stood up and stood aside.
When the chief eunuch saw someone coming, he began to announce: "The daughter of the Yue family, Yue Jing, is here to receive the decree~"
"Your servant Yue Jinghao accepts the order!" Yue Jinghao knelt at the head, and the rest of the people in Yue Mansion also knelt.
"The Emperor summoned me, saying: Yue Jinghao, the daughter of the Yue family, has a bad moral character, and she is like thunder and fire, so the engagement with the Crown Prince is cancelled. I decree this~"
Yue Hanwen was dumbfounded when he heard this. What? His greatest guarantee was cancelled by the Emperor? He was already ashamed among his colleagues, but due to Yue Jinghao's identity as the future Crown Princess, others dared not do anything. Now it was all over!
The old lady was well prepared, and when she heard this she just closed her eyes in sorrow.
The happiest person was Yue Jinghong. She stared at Yue Jinghao's back with a triumphant smile. Those who went against Yue Jinghong would never have an easy life! Without the protection of marriage, would Yue Jinghao still have the face to go out?
Yue Jinghao felt no emotion at all, as if she was not the one who broke off the engagement with the prince.
The eunuch looked at the gentle and elegant Yue Jinghao and felt a little suspicious. It seemed that this young lady was not as the rumors said...
The prince's wish had been fulfilled, so he didn't stay any longer. He got up and left. He only paused for a moment when passing by Yue Jinghong before continuing to leave.
Yue Jinghao quickly stuffed a large purse into the eunuch's hand and bowed, saying, "Thank you for your help, eunuch~"
The prince had already walked away, and the eunuch didn't need to worry about it anymore. He weighed the purse, and it was quite heavy! He opened it and took a look. Oh, this young lady was really smart! The purse she gave him was actually filled with a whole ingot of gold. "Young lady, you are too polite. Young lady, don't go out these days, so as not to get into trouble!"
Yue Jinghao heard the eunuch's admonition and bowed again, "Thank you for your advice, eunuch!"
When Yue Jinghao saw the eunuch off, Yue Hanwen and the old lady were still kneeling on the ground stupidly, not coming to their senses. The eunuch glanced at the sign of the Yue Mansion and snorted coldly. In this Yue Mansion, except for the eldest lady who was an insightful person, no one else was capable!
Yue Jinghong took the opportunity when Yue Jinghao left to pick up the note under her feet. "Grandma, Dad, please get up! Father-in-law is gone..."
The old lady was helped up by Nanny Zhang and tremblingly returned to the palace hall. Yue Hanwen could not accept this fact and shouted, "What a sin! What did I, Yue Hanwen, do wrong that God would punish me like this!"
Yue Jinghong looked at the painful Yue Hanwen, and felt a little relieved! Seeing Yue Jinghao coming back, she stepped forward and took Yue Jinghao's arm, "Big sister, are you okay?"
Without waiting for Yue Jinghao to say anything, Yue Hanwen stood up from the ground and said, "What can happen to her? It's all your fault, you rebellious girl. You did such a shameful thing and ruined my plan! I'll beat you to death!" As he said that, he picked up a broom and was about to hit Yue Jinghao.
Manju and Nanny Hong quickly protected Yue Jinghao behind them, but Yue Jinghong quickly let go of Yue Jinghao's arm and hid far away.
“Stop it!” The old lady yelled, pointing at Yue Hanwen with her trembling cane, “Look at what you look like. You were once a prime minister, but now you look like a street shrew! Jing’er, go back and have a rest! And don’t mention this matter again. If I knew that anyone used this matter to embarrass Jing’er, I would definitely skin her alive!”
The old lady's attitude surprised everyone. The old lady has always regarded the future of the Yue family as more important than her own life, but today she defended Yue Jinghao instead... It seems that this young lady is a resourceful person!
Yue Jinghong didn't want to think too much. Anyway, her goal had been achieved, and it would all depend on her ability from now on!
