My Cold and Beautiful Wife - Chapter 1997

1997

Hesitating for a moment, Ye Fan felt that he was too lazy to care too much. If he deliberately stopped, he would be discovered.

In any case, the crown prince and Gu Qing being together had nothing to do with him, so he might as well just ignore them.

At the same time, in the Crown Prince's carriage …

"Qing'er... You've suffered so much all these years, I'm sorry, if I had known that you were at the Rainbow Cloud Workshop, I would have ordered someone to redeem you … "

Su Yun looked at the beautiful lady in front of him, his gaze unmoving for a moment.

Although Gu Qing was dressed in a servant's green robe, in Su Yun's eyes, he looked much more beautiful than the other girls in the palace.

The Plum Blossom Horse that was always in a dream once again appeared in front of him, looking even more lithe and graceful than before, causing Su Yun's heart to beat even faster.

"Your Highness, Qing'er is no longer the Qing'er from back then. She's just a commoner. The crown prince has an honorable position. The difference between us is as different as the sky and the earth.

If others were to find out that the Crown Prince had come to meet with Qing'er in private, it would only be detrimental to the Crown Prince... " Gu Qing sighed faintly.

Su Yun immediately shook his head: "No! This King does not care about that! Qing`er... Do you hate the Imperial Family, hate Imperial Father, and do all that you did to the Gu Family all those years ago?

If you have hatred in your heart, you can say it out loud. This King can completely understand it...

The things that happened that year had nothing to do with you. Neither you nor This King can change anything. "

"Crown Prince... Gu Qing was alone at the moment, and his family had long been buried in the bitter cold.

He had returned to the great war after struggling for his life and was tricked into the Rainbow Cloud Workshop, how could he still have the qualification to hate the imperial family?

"As a weak girl, I only hope that I can live my life safely. That's enough …" Gu Qing had a look of pity on his face.

Su Yun's heart tensed up, his hand was trembling, as though he wanted to touch Gu Qing's hand.

However, like a frightened little rabbit, Gu Qing hurriedly withdrew her hand, not allowing the man to touch her.

Su Yun immediately apologized: "Qing'er, I was rude, and forgot that you and I are not the children from back then …

When we were young, you and I were playing hand in hand in our teacher's house.

This King remembers that you also said that you would become my consort when you grow up... "

"Your highness, it has been so many years. Why do you need to mention the past..." Gu Qing lowered his head, blushing.

Seeing the lady's bashful expression, Su Yun's eyes revealed joy, and said: "Qing'er, don't worry, if I were to inherit the throne one day, I will definitely give you a name and help you wash away the Gu family's grievances … …"

Gu Qing raised her head with a grateful look in her eyes. However, she still shook her head and said, "Your Highness, with this kind of heart, my grandfather's spirit in heaven should be satisfied.

Qing'er will silently pray for His Highness' blessings. From now on, Your Highness shouldn't look for Qing'er, lest people find out and criticize him. "

Hearing that, Su Yun's heart was filled with love and pity, "Don't worry, I will be careful when I come out, and with the Grand Princess and Prince Consort supporting the Hou Mansion, they will not speak nonsense.

This king has also told them to take care of you and not to let you suffer any grievances. "

"Your Highness, why do you have to act like this? You've made things difficult for Princess Consort Ma and caused a huge problem just like that …"

As Gu Qing spoke, he opened the car door and said, "Your Highness, please return to the palace. It will take too long for people to see that something is wrong."

With that, Gu Qing got out of the car and trotted back to the house of the Marquis.

Su Yun looked as though he was not satisfied, and looked at the beauty running far away, unwilling to part with her.

Turning his head, Su Yun realised that at the spot where Gu Qing was sitting, a water colored embroidered handkerchief had landed on it.

He quickly took it and was about to call for Gu Qing, but he was already nowhere to be seen.

Su Yun could only close the carriage door, looked at his handkerchief, lowered his head, and took a whiff, a delicate fragrance filled the air.

… ….

With regards to the matters between Gu Qing and the crown prince Su Yun, Ye Fan did not ask about it at all.

Two days before the Winter Hunt, Ye Fan was busy handing over the large amount of money he had earned to the manager of the Flying Crane Association. He also specifically informed the third prince, Su He, to hurry to the Wilderness to stock up.

Su He was amazed by Ye Fan's medical method of earning money. On the phone, he kept saying, "It's such a pity that you don't want to be an unscrupulous businessman."

Ye Fan didn't care about these things. In any case, he only earned some money from the rich and also taught him the genuine medical skills, so he had a clear conscience.

As the first snow of winter was completely melted, the royal family's Dong Shou finally arrived.

Early in the morning, the majestic hunting squadron left the city under the enthusiastic watch of a large number of citizens.

The golden chariot of the Emperor of the Underworld was being dragged by four golden-furred, lion-like demonic beasts.

In order to show that he was close to the people, the Emperor stood on the carriage and waved to some of the people.

In front of and after the emperor's emperor's carriage, the Qi King Su Qi, his uncle Luo Bei Wang, and a few other Heavenly Kings and Empyrean experts all had accompanying them.

This was because if something really did happen, then only those with an Empyrean cultivation or higher would be able to determine everything.

At the back of the group, Ye Fan was sitting on a jade-green scale horned horse with silver gray scales on its body.

It was arranged for him by Uncle Shui in the morning. He had tamed a low-level demonic beast, but it didn't feel as comfortable sitting on the bumpy ground as sitting on a stone cart.

Ye Fan was constantly changing his posture with a depressed look on his face. What kind of activity was this? Wasting time? Why wouldn't he feel uncomfortable?

"What's wrong, our Great Herb King, Prince Consort Ye, how can he sigh?"

Crown Prince Su Yun slowed down his pace from the front and arrived beside Ye Fan, smiling as he greeted him.

Obviously, because of Gu Qing, Su Yun also wanted to take the initiative and build a closer relationship with Ye Fan.

Ye Fan forced a smile, "Crown Prince, this thing isn't comfortable to ride, why don't we all go out by car?"

"Haha …" Su Yun laughed: "Prince Consort Ye may not know, but we are going to the Royal Hunting Ground, Twilight Forest.

And what we want to hunt are not only wild beasts, but also demonic beasts. If it was a normal mount, it would lose control the moment it saw a demonic beast.

Although this kind of Blue Scaled Horses are low level demon beasts, after taming them, they will become extremely brave and ferocious, allowing you to focus on dealing with demon beasts. "

Ye Fan thought to himself, "What kind of hunt is this? I sent out ten thousand swords at the same time, and all the demon beasts in the whole forest died?"

He thought to himself, but his eyes landed on Su Yun's mount.

It was a white-furred, sword-toothed, tiger-like demonic beast. It had golden stripes on its body, making it look very imposing.

"Crown Prince, this one is not bad. There are meat pads under your feet. Is it nice to ride on it?" Ye Fan asked.

"This was given to this king by my grandfather, the imperial grandfather. This king has raised the Wind Chaser Tiger since young, so it can be considered a medium level demon beast."

"It's just that I have yet to awaken, so I am unable to cultivate." Su Yun patted the tiger's head.

Ye Fan heard this and thought of his home's gluttonous snakes and fat tigers. He wondered, "Don't all demon beasts train from the beginning?"

"How is this demonic beast divided?" Must one open their spiritual wisdom before they can cultivate? " Ye Fan asked.

Without waiting for Su Yun to say anything, a sarcastic female voice came out from the other side.

"Prince Consort Ye is a man of eight talents. How can he not even know such basic matters?" The one who was mocking him was Ye Weiyang, who was sitting on a beautiful palanquin.

For some reason, the others were all mounted on demonic beasts. Only this princess had her four female servants carry her in a sedan, making her stand out from the masses.

The other young talents noticed that Ye Weiyang and Ye Fan were not on good terms, and started to secretly laugh.

Ye Fan was too lazy to reply, while Su Yun laughed awkwardly and started to explain patiently.

It turned out that in the primitive world, other than normal wild beasts, demon beasts were divided into low, medium, and high levels.

What determined the level of the demonic beasts wasn't how fierce or huge they were, but rather how intelligent they were.

Of course, generally speaking, demonic beasts that were innately powerful would have higher intelligence.

The higher the level of the demonic beast, the higher the probability of opening Spiritual Wisdom and the shorter the time required.

Only by awakening one's spiritual wisdom would one start to absorb spiritual energy and cultivate would one be considered a spiritual beast.

Spirit beasts were creatures that could awaken their consciousness. The strength of a spirit beast depended on the strength of its bloodline and cultivation.

"For this king's Wind Chaser Tiger, it would usually take fifty years to awaken intelligence, so it can only be considered a medium level demon beast. However, if one is lucky, it can be activated within twenty to thirty years.

For example, some of the higher bloodlines in the Dragon Beast Bloodline had their spiritual wisdom awakened at birth, but they rarely encountered one.

They are intelligent enough, and will not clash with cultivators for no reason, and will only stay in areas with no people, "said Su Yun.

Ye Fan suddenly nodded his head. Speaking of which, when he met Xiao Jin, he was already thousands of years old, and Fatty Hu was of Luwu bloodline. He was born with wisdom, so it was no wonder that they could cultivate.

Just as Ye Fan was thinking, a middle-aged man wearing a military uniform came down from the front.

"Young geniuses, you are about to leave the city gates. According to tradition, the young disciples that will be participating in Dong Shou are to be divided into groups of two."

If there was a chance of danger, it was fortunate that there was someone to look after the Twilight Forest.

All of you are all disciples of prestigious sects, so you all should have come across each other in private.
