Chapter 2089: Out In the Open (7)
“I really heard something. It’s on the east side. Something’s happening now. Come! Let’s have a look!”
When Feng Wu dragged Jun Linyuan into the maple woods, they saw the two entangled bodies on the ground, and both of them were astonished.
Before Feng Wu could make a sound, someone stepped out and shushed her.
It was none other than Wang, the eunuch.
He looked embarrassed to see “Jun Linyuan.”
Everyone knew that just two hours ago, Ranmil had begged the crown prince to love her…
But now, she was with the emperor…
That was…
Feng Wu pointed at the man and woman that were lost in their passion, her eyes wide with astonishment. “They… they really are…”
Despite his embarrassment, Wang nodded with a serious look on his face.
Feng Wu didn’t know what to say.
Jun Linyuan was speechless.
“Let’s go.” Feng Wu quickly led Jun Linyuan away.
The crown prince had never faced such a ridiculous situation either, and was perplexed. He didn’t resist when Feng Wu dragged him away.
Wang let out a breath of relief.
He had been really worried just then, fearing that the crown prince would kill Ranmil on the spot.
After all, the princess had sounded too affectionate and sincere when she confessed her love for him. But now… No man would endure such humiliation!
However, the smile immediately froze on his face.
Because Empress Dugu had arrived!
And she wasn’t alone. A team of officials was with her!
The wives of the officials as well!
Even the chieftain and the princes of the grassland had been invited!
This was Ranmil’s plan.
She was certain that she could seduce Jun Linyuan, but she was worried that the crown prince would go back on his word, so she sent Qingcao to let Empress Dugu know.
The empress didn’t like the idea of her son marrying Ranmil; she didn’t want such a woman as her daughter-in-law. However, if Jun Linyuan were to marry her…
Empress Dugu had enough power to ruin his reputation!
Therefore, as soon as she heard about it from Qingcao, she gathered the wives. Feeling that just the wives wouldn’t be enough, she gathered the officials as well.
When they marched toward the woods, they ran into the men of the grassland…
Why did they just happen to show up there? Of course, it was because of Qingcao as well.
Hence, the two groups of people headed for the woods together.
The excuse they gave was that Ranmil was so devastated after Jun Linyuan turned her down that she had gone missing. What if she jumped off a cliff?
With that excuse, Empress Dugu walked very fast.
Feng Wu and Jun Linyuan were about to leave, when they heard footsteps.
They looked at each other and felt that something was wrong.
This was a trap!
Without thinking, they jumped up into a tree.
They both chose the thickest old tree with heavy branches nearby.
