Chapter 108 Death to Schemes IV
"However, whether or not this will seed, I don''t know yet. After all, it still hasn''t been tested."
Qingyan looked to Murong Jingxuan and replied with a serious look.
"What new ideas do you have now?" A thought surfaced in Murong Jingxuan''s mind, "Don''t tell me
you''re thinking...?"
"That''s right, I''ll use Su Qingyuan as a starter, let her be my puppet first. However, whether or not
it will seed, I don''t know yet." Qingyan spoke in an indifferent tone.
"Then why don''t you try it tonight?" For some reason, whenever he was with her, Murong Jingxuan
would always feel as if his feelings were getting pulled along by a thread.
"I also have such intentions. But don''t me me, if something is not satisfactory." Qingyan continued in
a low voice, "However, I can return now." With that said, Qingyan pulled open the door and walked out.
"I''ll go find you at night."
Hearing Murong Jingxuan''s voice, Qingyan turned around to him and nodded.
After Qingyan returned to Yingshuang yard, she saw Su Yun and Luo Bing absentmindedly sitting there
with a heavy expression.
"Yan''er...." Su Yun raised his head to look at her, yet he didn''t know how he should exin. Thinking
back on Xuanyuan Yufan''s words during the Imperial court session today, he furrowed his brows.
"Father, mother, your daughter isn''t a child anymore." Qingyan saw their tightly knitted brows.
Something bad must have happened to have made Su Yun and Luo Bing make that kind of expression.
And for them to make that kind of expression, could it be this matter was rted to her?
"Father, mother, since this matter is rted to me, I have a right to know." Qingyan looked to the two of
them with a serious look.
Hearing her words, Su Yun looked up to her. With a single nce, it really made him feel as if this girl
before him has really grown up, so much so that it made him have a somewhat strange feeling. This
daughter before him gave off the feeling of someone in a high position, looking down from above. But
his daughter wasn''t even of age* yet, how could she have this kind of disy?
(*T/N: In ancient China,ing of age ceremony is performed for daughters at their 15th birthday. This
also indicates they''re ready for marriage.)
"Today in the Imperial Court, the Second Prince asked his Majesty to bestow you to him as his
consort." Su Yun calmly spoke, "But you''re my daughter, how can you just randomly marry someone
like this."
"Father, for this matter, please don''t worry about it." Qingyan looked to Su Yun and dully spoke.
Su Yun didn''t understand, this was his daughter''s matter. It should be himforting her, why did it
conversely be his daughterforting him.
"Yan''er, if you don''t like it, you can also not marry." Su Yun saw her contemting look, and thought
that she wasn''t willing to marry Xuanyuan Yufan.
When Qingyan looked to Su Yun and Luo Bing, a corner of her lips was bent, "Naturally your daughter
doesn''t like it. Your daughter won''t marry." She caressed the bracelet on her wrist as she said this.
She remembered that during the day of the Talent Conference, Xuanyuan Yufan was also present.
Furthermore, his Majesty''s edict had already been issued, Hongjia Emperor wouldn''t p his own face.
However, it seems Hongjia Emperor didn''t mention this to Su Yun.
"Yan''er, it''s all daddy''s fault." Su Yun held onto Qingyan''s hand, his remorseful look made Qingyan feel
a bit sad.
"Father, mother, you don''t need to worry. Even if I don''t marry, the Emperor won''t make it difficult for
me." Qingyan looked to them and smiled.
"What do you mean by that?" When Su Yun heard her words, he immediately looked up to her.
"Daddy, perhaps you still don''t know yet, but during the Talent Conference, I was promised by
Chunyuan Princess to be granted the title of Leyi Junzhu*, and also allowed me to freely choose my
marriage. If it''s not someone I like, I won''t marry." Qingyan looked to Su Yun and Luo Bing with a
smiling face.
(*T/N: In case some have forgotten, Junzhu is equivalent to the title Princess, just not the daughter of
an emperor.)
Moreover, she''d already prepared a great surprise for the Second Prince. Looking at it now, this
decision was really more than correct.
Xuanyuan Yufan, want to marry me?
Hehe. Then we''ll have to see if you have the ability to.
When Su Yun and Luo Bing heard these words, they were still uneasy. All the way until Qingyan
brought out the imperial edict, did they finally feelpletely at ease. This perhaps is also the reason
why Hongjia Emperor didn''t directly agree to Xuanyuan Yufan during the Imperial Court session.
Seems like, when they were gone, their daughter has certainly made them proud.
At the same time, Murong Jingxuan had also heard this news from Xuanyuan Yuzhen. Seeing him
making a mess from smashing his things, Xuanyuan Yuzhen spoke with augh, "Jingxuan, don''t be so
stirred up, imperial father* didn''t agree."
(*T/N: For sake of differentiating formality, I''ll have the princes address the emperor this way from now
on.)
Murong Jingxuan once again smashed something against the wall, "That old man naturally wouldn''t
agree."
But as soon as he thought of Xuanyuan Yufan asking to marry Qingyan, he would want to vent his
anger.
Moreover, he believes that Su Qingyan must have already heard this news by now.
"Jingxuan, say, second brother wanting to marry Miss Su at this time, could he have some ulterior
motives?" Xuanyuan Yuzhen looked to the angry Murong Jingxuan and reluctantly spoke.
"If my guess is right, this idea should''ve be given to him by Su Qingming." Murong Jingxuan lifted the
teacup and took a sip, "Did you think he''d seed?"
Xuanyuan Yuzhen looked to him and shook his head, "Naturally he won''t. That girl''s capabilities, I''ve
already experienced them myself."
"I think Yan''er is already nning to go ahead and deal with the Second Prince." Murong Jingxuan let
out a blood-thirsty smile, "But, even if Yan''er doesn''t act this time, I would also act."
"Jingxuan, could Miss Su have already thought of a good counterattack?" Xuanyuan Yuzhen looked to
Murong Jingxuan, still speaking in a calm manner.
"Naturally." Murong Jingxuan looked to Xuanyuan Yuzhen and bent the corner of his lips, "If he wants
to marry Yan''er, he''ll have to see if he has that capability or not."
"Oh. What''s the n? Let me hear it." Xuanyuan Yuzhen spoke with an interested look.
Murong Jingxuan generally never hid anything from Xuanyuan Yuzhen, so repeated Qingyan''s n to
him. After hearing this n, Xuanyuan Yuzhen shook his head, "Jingxuan, this girl really resembles you

when you were younger!"
Murong Jingxuan couldn''t help but curve his lips when he heard this from Xuanyuan Yuzhen, "Yan''er''s
method, naturally is good, else I wouldn''t mind sending Xuanyuan Yufan off myself."
"But whether or not this puppet will seed, I still don''t know yet." Xuanyuan Yuzhen looked to him
and shook his head, "Do you have any better ideas to make second brother stay put temporarily."
Murong Jingxuan shook his head, "At the moment, no, but there will be a way. Perhaps Yan''er also has
another n."
Xuanyuan Yuzhen thought of that young girl''s tender smile and softly chuckled, "Jingxuan, if it wasn''t
for the fact that you like that girl, I''m afraid even I would want to steal her away."
Hearing his words, Murong Jingxuan curved his lips, "What, now you know my Yan''er is good. Too bad
it''s toote now."
