Chapter 733: Princess Hu’s Marriage
While Nan Hua was enjoying the peace after settling the matter of Nan Hou Xiang interference, the outside world was somewhat celebrating Princess Hu’s marriage.
Inside the chamber, Princess Hu’s expression was frosty.
If only she was married for a marriage agreement somewhere far away, there might be a chance for her to escape midway. But since the target was Shangguan Family Residence which was located within the Capital City, the chance was extremely low.
Thinking of the humiliation that she had to endure, Princess Hu felt extremely indignant.
She didn’t want things to end up this way.
As the sound of party continued outside, Princess Hu was looking towards the window not far away from where she was. She was really tempted to head over there and then walked out to be able to avoid this marriage.
But what could she do?
Her Imperial Brother even sent so many Imperial Guards to accompany her.
If she could still escape under their eyes, she would be the best women in the entire kingdom!
Kreet!
At this moment, the door opened and Shangguan Yu was pushed inside by a manservant. The man was dressed in red clothes and there was a flush on his face as if he had been drinking too much. The smell of alcohol spread from his body.
Princess Hu’s face turned ugly when she saw this cripple in front of her. She had found him back then in order to make things difficult for Nan Hua to escape from the crime. What she didn’t expect was that she would dug a hole for herself!
That was so infuriating!
“You may leave.”
The manservant helped Shangguan Yu to the bed before he bowed and leave. Shangguan Yu looked at Princess Hu and chuckled. “It’s time to finish the last segment.”
Shangguan Yu stretched his hand to open the veil on Princess Hu’s face, but the woman slapped his hand away.
Slap!
“Don’t touch me!”
“I’m your husband, Yang Hu.”
Yang Hu, Princess Hu’s real name. No one had dared to call her using that name for so many years because of her nobility. Looking at the insolent man in front of her, Princess Hu raised her hand and wanted to hit him.
Swish!
With a swift movement, Shangguan Yu grabbed Princess Hu’s wrist easily then he leaned forward, pushing Princess Hu on the bed. His previously drunken expression had disappeared as his eyes straed straight at the woman below him.
“You…! Get off of me!” Princess Hu struggled to get away from Shangguan Yu.
“Wife, I can’t do that.”
Shangguan Yu flashed a smile then took out a needle. He calmly pierced the needle to Princess Hu’s hand as he watched the woman under him struggle. Before long, her struggle grew weaker as faint gasp escaped from Princess Hu’s mouth.
“You should be more obedient in the first place.” Shangguan Yu chuckled as he took the two cups and drink one while he poured the other one to Princess Hu’s mouth.
*cough* *cough*
By this time, Princess Hu could feel her entire body heated up. She knew that Shangguan Yu had poisoned her and that was why she gritted her teeth in anger. However, her body was weak, making her unable to fight back.
“Don’t you dare to touch me!”
“If I’m not the one to touch you, who should?” Shangguan Yu asked in a low voice. He looked at the woman below him as he chuckled once more. “I might be a cripple because I can’t move my two legs, but I can assure you that I have no problem in the other area. I’m sure you have already know since you had experienced it once.”
“Shameless!”
“One more thing, I don’t like to be threatened. You better be obedient if you don’t want anything bad to happen, Yang Hu.”
Princess Hu’s eyes widened as she looked at the man above her. She regretted approached him back then. If time could turn back, she would have just picked another person so that she would not end up in his hand.
How could he be the useless cripple young master?
He’s definitely a rogue!
…
The next day after Princess Hu’s marriage, Princess Hu had to pay a visit to see the Emperor. After all, Shangguan Yu’s father was still at the battlefield while Princess Hu herself was part of the royalty.
Who should they meet?
In the end, it was just settled for the two of them to meet with the Emperor.
Looking at her own appearance in the mirror, Princess Hu gritted her teeth in anger. If only it was possible, she wished to kill Shangguan Yu so much that he would regret being alive in this world.
Shangguan Yu was already ready on the side and looked at his wife who was getting ready. He was calm and composed for he had already be in helpless situation for so many years. Patience has become the norm for him.
Without patience, he would have never reached this point.
“It’s time.”
Princess Hu gritted her teeth and walked beside Shangguan Yu. Her expression was so bad that it might even cause flowers to wilt but none of the servants dared to help her. They all knew that if they dared to help Princess Hu escaped, the punishment for them would be worse than death.
And many of the servants who came with Princess Hu were new servants.
Emperor Yang Zhou had cleared the previous old servants in order to prevent Princess Hu from having any ideas when coming to this place.
“Princess Hu and Prince Yu had arrived.”
Shangguan Yu was in good mood when he heard the new title bestowed to him. Even though it was all because of his marriage, it didn’t change the fact that he was part of the royal family now.
It seemed that his plan would be able to start earlier.
Entering the main hall, Princess Hu kowtowed to the ground while Shangguan Yu bowed. After all, he couldn’t move his legs and kowtowed to the ground properly.
