Chapter 608: Her Good Match
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Xue Fanxin felt uncomfortable being sized up by the emperor, but the other party was the ruler of a country—no, the entire Tongxuan Continent. He was the most noble and influential person. To have a better life in the future, she had to behave.
“Xue Fanxin greets Your Majesty, blessings to Your Majesty.” Xue Fanxin bowed briefly to the emperor and did not kneel and kowtow like the maids. Furthermore, she stood up without waiting for the emperor’s instructions.
Under normal circumstances, this kind of behavior would be a great disrespect to the emperor. The crime could be big or small. If the emperor did not mind, then it was fine. If he did, it would not be too much to even chop off your head.
The emperor was already dissatisfied with Xue Fanxin, and it only increased. But he would not show it. He pretended to be easygoing and forced a smile. “Your name is Xue Fanxin and your surname is Xue. Are you from the Xue family?”
“Your Majesty, I have nothing to do with the Xue family.”
The emperor seemed to be secretly delighted. “You’re very lucky to be favored by Jiushang.”
Many women in the Ye Dynasty dreamed of marrying Ye Jiushang. But they could not even see him, let alone marry him.
Unfortunately, the emperor’s imperial edict was useless to Ye Jiushang. Otherwise, he would have long wedded Ye Jiushang with Yu Yuefu. There would be no need for such trouble.
Yu Yuefu hated Xue Fanxin to the core. Her fingers kept tugging at her sleeve as she tried her best to control her emotions. She could not act rashly.
Xue Fanxin, just you wait. The Ninth Imperial Consort will be me sooner or later.
Xue Fanxin was not interested in the schemes of the royal family. She was disgusted with the emperor’s lies and had no interest in talking to these people. She threw a glance at Ye Jiushang.
How could Ye Jiushang not know what the emperor and the others were up to? He was just too lazy to care. He felt annoyed and said, “The Consort Dowager needs to rest. Please leave. Don’t disturb her rest. I still have something to do. I’ll take my leave first.”
Yu Yuefu got anxious. After all, she had yet to speak to him.
She had finally been able to see the Ninth Lord. If she did not even say a word, wouldn’t she have missed this opportunity for nothing?
She did not know when she would see him again. Perhaps it would be a year or even longer. How could she win his favor?
No, she had to make the Ninth Lord notice her this time… Yu Yuefu decided to take a gamble. Taking a step forward, she was about to use all her strength to persuade him to stay. Unexpectedly, he disappeared outside the door with Xue Fanxin.
She had clearly seen the Ninth Lord strolling along. How had he disappeared in the blink of an eye?
The Ninth Lord was indeed as unfathomable, mysterious, and powerful as the rumors said. Such a man was a good match for her, Yu Yuefu. No matter what, she had to get him.
