Chapter 781: Call the Shots for Her
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
If the Emperor specifically said that his daughter was arrogant and had no respect for anyone, then she could forget about getting married in the future. She should just hang herself with a rope.
The fortune was only relative to the royal family. An ordinary family would not dare to say that they had such great fortune that she would not be able bear it!
“Father! How could this not ruin my reputation?! This was supposed to be an arranged marriage, but it disappeared just like that! What did the Crown Prince say that the Emperor jus believed him like that? Did he ever think of anyone else?! Father, why didn’t you fight for it? Or… you can discuss it with Master Meng. Without this marriage, what should I do?”
There would definitely be many people who would laugh at her!
She was even prepared to shine in the big examination a few days later. She even wanted to marry the Fourth Prince in a glorious manner!
Why did she lose everything just because they said she was lacking in fortune?!
She questioned him with reddened eyes. Master Dong was embarrassed by her words, his face also turned cold. “Previously, you had targeted the Princess Consort in the palace. Now that the Princess Consort holds a grudge, what do you want me to do?! His Majesty’s decision is set. Can I change it?!”
Dong Xiyun clenched her fists.
The Crown Prince! It was all because of the Crown Prince!
The Fourth Prince was also the Emperor’s son. Why did the Emperor have to be so biased?
Dong Xiyun was truly in despair.
Ever since she was young, she had always been outstanding. She had never thought of marrying an ordinary person. Her goal had always been the royal family! Now that her marriage with the Fourth Prince had failed, who else could she marry? How could those people compare to the Fourth Prince’s noble status?
Dong Xiyun tried hard to recall which step she had taken wrong.
After thinking about it, she thought of the time when the Crown Prince had brought Xie Qiao to the Dong Residence.
It was all because Xie Qiao had pretended to be weak, so the Crown Prince had called the shots for her!
It was Xie Qiao’s fault.
It was also her sister’s fault.
If it were not for them, she would not have had to take the risk to do that kind of thing. She could have married off successfully…
Dong Xiyun was filled with resentment. Suddenly, she thought of the Fourth Prince.
If the Crown Prince was willing to help Xie Qiao, then the Fourth Prince…
With that thought, Dong Xiyun ignored her father and rushed out. Although the Fourth Prince had not left the palace to build a mansion, he often stayed in the academy, especially recently, he had learned to copy the world map with Master Qiu. It was very likely that he was still in the academy!
Dong Xiyun arrived at the academy quickly in the carriage.
At this time, there was almost no one in the female academy. She asked the steward and went straight to the Fourth Prince.
“Your Highness!” Dong Xiyun’s eyes were filled with tears and she felt wronged.
The Fourth Prince was a little embarrassed. He glanced at the teachers and then said quietly, “I… will be out for a while.”
The teachers nodded and said, “Come back soon, Your Highness.”
Old Master Li was coming back soon. They had to make a perfect copy of the world map before his return. They would let him take a look at it!
The Fourth Prince packed up and followed Dong Xiyun to the courtyard.
“Young Lady Dong, what do you want from me?” The Fourth Prince looked very calm.
“Your Highness, I… The Emperor broke off the engagement between you and me… Do you know about this?” Dong Xiyun asked.
“Yes.” The Fourth Prince nodded.
He knew more than that.
Before this, the Crown Prince called him over and chatted with him. The rough idea was that Dong Xiyun was not a good match, so he was going to replace his fiancee.
His brother also said that if he thought this young lady was good, then he would not replace her.
However, he thought that since his brother had already spoken, there must be something bad about Dong Xiyun. That was why the dignified Crown Prince was so anxious about his choice of marriage candidate.. He also thought Dong Xiyun did not seem to have any interest in him, so it did not matter that the marriage was called off.
