Chapter 212.1 - The best of an ugly bunch
Lan Bai suddenly grew uneasy, “Then what is the Night Prince …” going to do?
The Night Prince didn’t only care about her master just a little.
If he found out that her master was planning to marry into the third prince, would he suddenly s.n.a.t.c.h her in anger?
Lan Bai blinked, she thought that was a possibility. “Master, maybe you should reconsider. Even if breaking apart the third prince’s power is important, you don’t have to marry … him.”
Actually, she didn’t really understand what her master was thinking.
She’d always felt that her master was particularly attached to the third prince for some reason.
Lou Qingwu looked up but didn’t say anything.
“Let’s go, I’ve already decided.”
“.... Yes.”
Lou Qingwu’s words made Lan Bai completely give up, she just hoped that it would be smooth from now on.
Lou Qingwu took a small path for the sake of not attracting of trouble but if she knew beforehand that she’d b.u.mp into Shu Yunyan like this, she definitely wouldn’t have chosen this road.
She was only a few more paths away from the Vermilion Bird Gate and she could even see the patrolling guards.
But it was just here that she saw a congregation of people, the leader was Shu Yunyan, the person by his side was Xiliang country’s third princess, an amba.s.sador and the disguised fifth prince from Xiliang Country, Xiliang Mubai.
Xiliang Mubai’s expression was bad and even from afar, she could feel his dark aura.
“Shu Yunyan, I don’t care what you’re scheming. I won’t marry that ugly monster!”
“You have no choice.” Shu Yunyan didn’t even turn around, his expression a bit too cold.
Xiliang Mubai was a prince after all, but instead, this prime minister seemed even more proud than a prince.
“You!”
“The emperor had already said before we left, this time, you have to listen to my orders when we get to Dongyu country. Lou Qingwu, no matter what you want, you have to marry her. Even if you just marry her for display. Furthermore, I heard that Lou Qingwu’s a renowned beauty, so you’re not making a loss.” Shu Yunyan’s words were a bit sharp.
What did he mean, not making a loss?
Even if he wanted to marry her, she wasn’t exactly willing to marry him.
Also, exactly where was she ugly?
Lou QIngwu rubbed her face before looking at Xiliang Mubai, thinking that when she poisoned him, it really was a smart choice.
It was only a pity that the dosage was too small, otherwise, she’d let him unable to get hard for a year or a half.
Maybe his s.e.xual orientation would even change in that time.
She touched her facial veil and briefly considered making that a reality.
“What’s an ugly thing like you doing here?!” Xiliang Mubai looked at Lou Qingwu like he was looking at a ghost, shouting.
Lou Qingwu looked at him coldly, “This countess has always been here. Exactly what are you, to dare to humiliate and shout at this countess?”
Who couldn’t abuse their power, Lou Qingwu sure could.
Lou Qingwu looked at Xiliang Mubai with contempt, using the image of a c.o.c.ky countess to look down on him.
“You … alright, you ugly monster! You dare to look down on this … mm …” Xiliang Mubai was about to reveal his ident.i.ty before Shu Yunyan covered his mouth and dragged him to the side.
Shu Yunyan looked at him warningly.
Xiliang Mubai hmph’d but didn’t say anything else.
Lou Qingwu’s watched interestedly, it seems like this Shu Yunyan really was like the rumours, having overreaching powers.
Even Xiliang country’s princes had to treat him with respect.
But, if he wanted to swindle her into Xiliang country, that really wasn’t very nice.

TL note:
Overreaching power - literally, having one hand cover the sky - a term usually used for emperors with power to control everything underneath the sky.
