Chapter 943: What If Lu Liangwei Died
Wanyan Luosang was not surprised to hear that.
It would be strange if Long Yang agreed for her to marry into the Palace.
However, even though she understood this, she was still disappointed after learning the outcome.
“Big Brother, you’ve troubled yourself over me.”
“I didn’t manage to help you with anything,” Wanyan Jin said helplessly.
Wanyan Luosang sighed as she rested her chin in her hands. She looked at him, as if wanting to say something.
Wanyan Jin glanced at her and said, “Go ahead and tell me whatever is on your mind.”
Wanyan Luosang immediately gave him a hopeful look when she heard this. She hesitated before continuing, “Big Brother, I’ve never asked you for anything. I just really like Great Shang’s Emperor. Can you help make my wish come true?”
Wanyan Jin rubbed the spot between his eyes and said with slight fatigue, “You’re my sister. Of course I’ll help make any wish of yours come true, but the Emperor of Great Shang is stubborn. If you really want him to marry you, it would not be easy at all.”
Wanyan Luosang said depressedly, “Why? Am I not good enough?”

Wanyan Jin’s gaze fell upon her face.
Luosang was known as the number one beauty in Danjue. She was a radiant beauty and had a coquettish and bubbly personality, which made her quite well-loved in Danjue, but…
A figure flashed in his mind.
When there was a comparison, one could see the vast contrast.
Luosang looked ordinary compared to Lu Liangwei. If both of them were placed next to each other, Lu Liangwei would be the first person anyone would look at while Luosang would end up being just a side decoration.
With a precious pearl in front of him, the Emperor of Great Shang would not be able to accept anyone else.
Unless…
“His Majesty of Great Shang had never looked at me twice because of Lu Liangwei, right?” Wanyan Luosang’s voice was quiet, but one could tell that she was unwilling to accept defeat.
Wanyan Jin collected his thoughts and turned to look at her nonchalantly.
Wanyan Luosang’s eyes narrowed as she suddenly said, “What if Lu Liangwei died?”
Wanyan Jin’s sharp, cold eyes glared at her when she said those words. He was about to say something when his subordinate entered the room to report, “The Empress of Great Shang invites the princess for a visit to the Grand Princess of Ning Mansion. The horse-drawn carriage is already waiting for you outside the coaching inn.”
The siblings were surprised at those words.
When the words sunk in, Wanyan Jin had already forgotten that he was planning to reprimand Wanyan Luosang. He was filled with the thought of Lu Liangwei’s arrival.
What was she doing here?
“Lu Liangwei is here?” Wanyan Luosang finally reacted and turned to the subordinate to ask.
“Yes, she’s waiting outside the coaching inn,” the subordinate replied respectfully.
Wanyan Luosang turned to look at Wanyan Jin. “Big Brother, what do you think Lu Liangwei is planning?”
Wanyan Jin suppressed that unusual emotion he felt and gave this some thought before replying, “It could be that she found out you used Wanyan Zhi to poison the Emperor of Great Shang, judging by the sudden invitation for you to visit the Grand Princess of Ning. Be careful with your words when you’re there and don’t give her anything to catch on to.”
Wanyan Luosang suddenly got nervous when she heard this. “Lu Liangwei knows?”
She had done the deed in great secrecy and was confident that she did not give away anything.
“This is just my guess, she might not know all the details.” Wanyan Jin’s face turned grim when he saw her look so nervous.
“Just take a look at yourself. Anyone could immediately tell that you’re guilty of something without even asking.”
Wanyan Luosang clenched her fingers when she heard this and tried her best to calm herself down.
“Everything will be fine. Just act natural. As long as you admit nothing, there’s nothing she can do even if she guessed the truth.” Wanyan Jin’s expression turned softer as he consoled her.
“I know.” Wanyan Luosang had calmed down now.
“Alright, we shouldn’t let Her Highness wait too long. Let me see you out,” Wanyan Jin said as he walked out of the room first.
