  But Ning Feng was not Su Yuan’s bodyguard, ever since the beginning he followed closely beside Chen Wang, evidently he would not allow Su Yuan to take her away. With his long sword blocking Yun Qian Meng from Su Yuan, he immediately spoke “This won’t do! If you have any concerns, you must wait until Wang Ye arrives here to discuss with him. Since Superior Su respected Chen Wang, then you should consider Wang Ye’s decision in everything, why would you let your emotions affect your decisions?”

  But Su Yuan was very stubborn at this moment, he suddenly shifted his eyes towards Ning Feng and threatened “Imperial Guard Ning, the resulting effect of this matter, will not be something that you alone can endure! This relates to the bloodline of Han Guo Gong Fu, if you would attempt to interrupt, then don’t blame me for being rude!”

  “I want to see how you plan to behave rudely!” During this time, Chen Wang, who was riding on the horseback as he crazily rushed over, remarked coldly. Those ice-cold eyes were coldly glaring at Su Yuan, causing Su Yuan to shiver But thinking about the pain that Su Qian Yue had suffered, the hatred in his heart slowly spread out once again, wishing he could tore Yun Qian Meng in front of him into a thousand pieces.

  And following Chen Wang’s arrival, a horse carriage approached from behind, but the horse carriage stopped at a bit far away distance, one could not see who was sitting inside of it.

  “Wang Ye, Yun Qian Meng was truly outrageous today, causing Yue’er to have……” Even if he was utterly furious, Su Yuan was still mindful of his words. Initially he wanted to keep Su Qian Yue’s pregnancy as a secret until she reached the third month of her pregnancy, but this time she had accidentally experienced a miscarriage. If Han Guo Gong Fu ware to learn about it, perhaps not only would she be unable to become the first wife, she might also carry the criminal offense for not being able to protect the heir properly.

  “If Su Qian Yue didn’t forcefully intrude inside the prison cell, how could this accident happen?” But Chen Wang seemed to know about everything in full details. And as he spoke it made Su Yuan’s face turn pale, his facial expression looking very ugly.

  “Ning Feng, fetch the two pieces of a hundred-year-old ginsengs from Han Guo Gong Fu, allow the housekeeper of Han Guo Gong Fu to send them to Su Fu for Su xiaojie to nurse her body!” Seeing Su Yuan not saying anything further, Jiang Mu Chen’s both eyes looked at Yun Qian Meng as he uttered these words.

  “Wang Ye……” Su Yuan spoke with a loud thump in his heart. Based on Chen Wang’s spoken words, it appeared that Han Guo Gong Fu was already aware of Su Qian Yue’s pregnancy.

  “You may go ahead and take care of your own business, I have something to ask Yun xiaojie!” While speaking, Ning Feng had driven away the two female jailers, and he also personally waited for Su Yuan to leave this place.

  The entire surrounding had calmed down and Yun Qian Meng glanced at Chen Wang, as she simply said “Yun Qian Meng asks to be excused.”

  But how could Chen Wang allow her to leave, moving his body he blocked Yun Qian Meng’s path and spoke “If you don’t wish to see the people you care about suffering, then you must follow me!”

  After speaking, he turned around then proceeded to the direction of the courtyard of the Ministry of Justice.

  Yun Qian Meng knitted her brows, then followed behind him as they entered a room which seemed to be used by the officials during their usual days to handle official businesses.

  “Wang Ye, please say whatever you wanted to say now.” Watching Chen Wang’s seemingly nonchalant look, furthermore still having the leisure time to appreciate the ink painting that was hanging on the wall, Yun Qian Meng said indifferently.

  “Do you really hated me that much?” Turning his body around, Chen Wang stared at Yun Qian Meng, his eyes looking evidently hurt.

  But, without waiting for Yun Qian Meng to respond, he laughed mockingly, afterwards he spoke “You’ve already responded to that last time. But, Yun Qian Meng, even if you hate me, I have still decided to marry you!”

  Watching Chen Wang’s expression which suddenly turned serious, Yun Qian Meng’s expression turned more grave, after which she coldly remarked “Wang Ye, please take back what you’ve said. Yun Qian Meng definitely does not want to marry you!”

  But Chen Wang was not least bit concerned with Yun Qian Meng’s words, staring fixedly at the prominently wan and sallow delicate face in front of him, he sneered and retorted back “Until this moment, are you still hoping that Chu Fei Yang would come here and rescue you? Don’t worry about it, I would definitely not give him such an opportunity. Even if he were to leave right now, hurrying on his journey day and night without stopping, he would still need ten days time to be able to reach the capital! And the city defense armies inside the capital were all my people, do you think he has wings or has the ability to make his way under the ground? If he wanted to enter the city, it would be a wishful thinking of a foolish person. And besides, I wouldn’t even spend ten days waiting for him, I want him to see you become my Ce Fei, making him regret throughout his life!”

  Hearing Chen Wang’s words, Yun Qian Meng remained exceptionally calm as she spoke “You are joking, Wang Ye, up until now, chennu could only count on herself. I hope Wang Ye wouldn’t vent your anger on an innocent person. And chennu would definitely not marry Wang Ye in this life!”

  Seeing her being cold, Chen Wang had not appear to behave crazily just like the last time at Chen Wang Fu. He had actually listened to Yun Qian Meng’s every word calmly, after which he slowly smiled and said “To marry or not, now is not the time for you to decide! I know you give importance to passion and righteousness, you care about every person in Fu Guo Gong Fu, even a person like Rong Yun He, you still treat him like a friend! Do tell me, what sort of criminal charges should I impose on Rong Fu? And do you want me to execute their entire clan or banish them to the frontier region? Yun Qian Meng, before you reject me, you should consider my words carefully! You should know, Rong Fu doesn’t have any powerful backer, if I intended to choke Rong Yun He to death, then it would be just as easy as pinching an ant!”

  Chen Wang’s spoken words made Yun Qian Meng’s cold eyes to sweep through this crazy man in front of her, her heart truly despised his way of handling things.

  “Wang Ye, do you compel a person this way? That was truly an eye-opener! Chennu didn’t expect that a very well-regarded Chen Wang Ye would actually make use of such despicable trick to force another person to marry him, that is truly disgusting!” A thin layer of ice formed between her brows, but Yun Qian Meng’s eyes still maintained her usual calmness, constantly reminding herself not to be infuriated by this crazy person in front of her.

  But Chen Wang was still greedily staring at Yun Qian Meng’s face that was covered with frost, feeling that Yun Qian Meng looked the most moving and the most attractive behaving this way.

  But, being rejected by a woman again and again, Chen Wang was somewhat angered, yet he also knew that if he was to get angry at this moment, he would be the loser. Thus he forced himself to calm down “If you want to blame someone, then just blame yourself! If you didn’t repeatedly attract my attention, then why would I be like this? Meng’er, as long as you agreed to marry me, Rong Fu and Fu Guo Gong Fu will both remain safe and sound.

  Seeing Jiang Mu Chen being so obsessed, Yun Qian Meng knew well that it would be useless if she said anything further therefore she just plainly replied “Then may chennu ask how Wang Ye planned to marry chennu? Chennu is a person admitted with crime, how can chennu appear just and honorable in front of everybody?”

  Seeing Yun Qian Meng’s attitude had softened, Jiang Mu Chen’s tone of voice was unlike his unyielding attitude earlier, calming down his own tone of voice, a smile appeared inside of Jiang Mu Chen’s eyes. In a great mood he said “I’ve found a new identity for you! After seven days, you will make use of that identity as the eldest daughter of the richest individual in Jiang City, and marry me to become my Ce Fei. But, before all of these, you have to die at once!”


  Having heard him mention everything in full details, Yun Qian Meng’s heart became nervous.

  She had not expected that Jiang Mu Chen would think of such drastic measures to deal with the situation. He actually wanted her to fake her death, then make use of another identity to marry him!

  Perhaps once she changed her identity, Chu Fei Yang would never be able to find her again.

  And that daughter of the richest individual in Jiang City, might have already died in tragic circumstances in order to preserve her existence.

  With this analysis, Yun Qian Meng’s four limbs went cold, thinking that this person in front of her was truly horrible.

  But, looking at Jiang Mu Chen, she thought of Rong Yun He, Gu Lao Tai Jun and the others, Yun Qian Meng said “Alright, I agree! But, what do you intended to do with that lady?”

  Seeing Yun Qian Meng eventually agreed, Jiang Mu Chen was suddenly wild with joy then in a great mood he informed her “She, will marry Chu Fei Yang!”

  “Since that is the case, then I shall take my leave now! I hope Wang Ye will keep your word and won’t break your promise!” Having heard what was said, Yun Qian Meng bent her knees then turned around to leave.

  “Meng’er, do not harbor any other intentions! From now on, you will be mine! You will never be able to escape from me.” Behind her, Chen Wang’s warning voice echoed.

  But, his voice had urged Yun Qian Meng to quickly leave this oppressive place.

  Returning back to the prison cell, Yun Yi Yi had already eaten all the pastries, this time she pulled over the quilt and was sound asleep.

  Yun Qian Meng’s heart was incomparably heavy, she surely had not expected that Chen Wang will go through such extreme method to force her into marriage.

  Watching Yun Yi Yi who was already sleeping soundly, Yun Qian Meng immediately sat down before the desk and took out the eyebrow pencil inside the jewelry box, she also tore off a blank page from a book, then quickly write down all the things.

  Early in the evening, the mess cooks walked inside bringing their dinner meal, Yun Qian Meng lifted her eyes and looked at the mess cook who had brought the dinner inside the prison, then she immediately took the food…...

  “What did you say? After seven days you will marry a Ce Fei?” At this moment inside the Chen Wang Fu, Yuan De Tai Fei’s face appeared to be shocked as she looked at her son who had just told her about this matter. She then fiercely stood up and immediately declined “I will not allow it! Zheng Fei and Ce Fei positions originally had a fixed number, now to my surprise you’ve actually allowed the position of Ce Fei to be given to a daughter of richest individual, Chen’er, are you insane?”

  During these few days, Yuan De Tai Fei was feeling happy because of the matter concerning the imprisonment of Yun Qian Meng. As easy as blowing off the dust, it was as if stone had been lifted off from her heart and it naturally made her feel happy.

  She was thinking about choosing the candidates to be Chen Wang’s Zheng Fei and Ce Fei, but today he had unexpectedly mentioned to her about this matter.

  If it was some daughter of an official she would be able to accept it, but it was actually the daughter of the richest individual, such lowly status will not be qualified enough to assume the position of Ce Fei of the majestic Chen Wang. Even if she was to become a concubine, it was also considered to be an enormous grace.

  This made Yuan De Tai Fei unable to restrain her anger, without thinking she immediately opposed.

  But at this time Chen Wang looked determined, with an unyielding attitude. He actually ignored Yuan De Tai Fei’s ashened face, then coldly spoke “I came here today, just to inform Mother. As for everything concerning the wedding, I will let Ning Feng make the necessary preparations, I will not trouble you anymore, Mother!”

  After speaking, Chen Wang lifted up his feet and walked outside, seeing this situation Yuan De Tai Fei was about to chase after him, yet she was left behind by Chen Wang…...

  “Jiang Mama, go and investigate thoroughly, what sort of a person this richest individual in Jiang City is? Why would he want Wang Ye to marry his daughter?” Yuan De Tai Fei ignored her usual aristocratic demeanor. Thinking that she was about to become a joke of the royal family, her face became distorted due to anger, wishing she could immediately meet this daughter of the richest individual from Jiang City. Seeing how her looks became capable of causing the downfall of a city, who had actually allowed Chen Wang to abandon Hai Tian who had a considerable social status, and as well as that Qi Ling’er.

  “Tai Fei, it is merely a Ce Fei, there’s no need to get angry with Wang Ye, unexpectedly wounding your relationship as mother and son. As for my humble opinion, it would be better for Tai Fei to just let Wang Ye do just as he desired, after which you shall permit Wang Ye to propose a marriage to Northern Qi, marrying that Princess Qi Ling’er and taking her as Zheng Fei, wouldn’t it get the best of both worlds? As for that Ce Fei’s position, later on we should find an opportunity to press her with criminal charges, wouldn’t it just be left unoccupied?” Seeing her own master being greatly angered, Jiang Mama spoke to convince Yuan De Tai Fei in due course before she lost her rationality.

  Being reminded by Jiang Mama like that, Yuan De Tai Fei’s fury had been instantly extinguished. Now thinking about the severity of the situation, she had actually felt that Jiang Mama’s words were quite reasonable.

  “Since that is the case, then I will let him be. But, you must head over there to inform Chen’er, that marrying a Ce Fei isn’t a trivial matter. How could Ning Feng b know it. When the time comes and there is a mistake, the one who would lose face is Chen Wang Fu. This time the crown prince of Northern Qi is still in Western Chu. If he was to find out how our Wang Fu handled things, how would he allow Qi Ling’er to marry into our family. During these few days you shall lend a hand to Chen’er’s courtyard, don’t make any mistakes!” Stroking her forehead she massaged her temples as Yuan De Tai Fei had no other choice but to give in.

  Jiang Mama had stated correctly, Ce Fei can be replaced by a number of people , but she had only one son. If the relationship between mother and son were to be wounded because of a woman, then that would truly be not worth it.

  Seeing Yuan De Tai Fei convinced, Jiang Mama immediately followed her instruction and proceeding towards Chen Wang’s courtyard.

  After three days during night time, a fire took place outside of the Ministry of Justice, during this time it was during the period of autumn dry. In addition to that cool breeze which slightly brushed away, the fire instantly went out of control.

  The prisoners inside the prison one by one were woken up by the smoke,intensely seeking a way to survive the sound of screaming caused l c the earth to shake. Unfortunately these people were all criminals of the imperial court, therefore the jailers dare not to open up the door of the prison cells without any permission. They could only temporarily think of a way to extinguish the fire with the bailiffs who came to extinguish the fire.

  But the manpower of the Ministry of Justice was not enough, Ning Feng, who was guarding at the doorway, had initially thought of rescuing Yun Qian Meng. But Su Yuan who had hurried over there had blocked the entrance. Both of them pointed their swords towards each other, but the fire increased Seeing that if this fire continued these prisoners would soon be dead, Ning Feng left two of his subordinates behind to guard the post. To avoid having someone switching the people inside or taking the opportunity to murder he immediately hopped onto the horseback and rushed towards Chen Wang Fu to report of this matter.

  During that night, Chen Wang was choosing a wedding dress for Yun Qian Meng, yet he saw Ning Feng walked in with a blackened face. Upon seeing him he immediately knelt down anxiously and he spoke “Wang Ye, a fire had taken place at the Ministry of Justice, this time the fire had spread inside the prison cells.”

  “What? You must quickly mobilize the city defense troops!” The wedding dress in his hand instantly fell to the ground, Chen Wang’s face become deathly pale. He
left an official medal to Ning Feng, and rushed out like an arrow that was shot from a bow string.

  But by the time when Chen Wang reached the doorway of the prison cell, the entire place was already surrounded by fire.

  Although the prison cell was damp, but the inside of it contained a lot of rice straws. The surging black smoke was already being emitted from the entrance. The voices calling out for help had became weak, it could have been due to some of them being unable to endure the thick smoke and they suffocated.

  The inside of Yun Qian Meng’s prison cell contained books, quilts, and the worst thing was that its surroundings were covered using silk fabrics. Realizing that Chen Wang wished he could punch himself in the face. He should have thought earlier this might happen. , Why had he not tried to prevent this?

  Without thinking much he was about to rush into the scene of fire, yet his waist was being held back by Su Yuan “Wang Ye, the intensity of fire inside is too strong, even if you enter it will still be useless.”

  “Get lost!” But during this time Jiang Mu Chen’s eyes had turned red, bearing an oppressive look.

  Particularly when he saw Su Yuan had actually stopped him, his both eyes slightly protruded out, bearing a look as if he wanted to cut Su Yuan into thousand pieces.

  “Wang Ye, humble official would never allow you to take the risks. There are too many prisoners inside , how will you be able to find her? Besides, suffering from this black smoke for a very long time, perhaps they had already lost their lives. If you were to go in right now, wouldn’t you just be sacrificing your own life in vain?”

  But during the time when the two of them confronted each other, Ning Feng led the city defense army over. Then everybody started to extinguish the fire and after the entire half f an hour, they were able to put that huge fire out.

  Watching the surging black smoke emitting from the inside, Chen Wang shook off Su Yuan and walked further inside. This time the prison cells were already in a huge mess, and the one being harmfully burnt, was actually Yun Qian Meng’s prison cell.
