Chapter 397.2: Deal, First Time Planning

“Heh.” The Former Wei first prince lightly scoffed, carrying endless ridicule, “Fine, since Yi Ning doesn’t understand, this older brother will just clearly explain for you. You holding this banquet, although at first didn’t know your goal, thus just allowing you to act willfully, but now……….Regardless of who not arriving, even if it’s not Jin Wangfei, you probably would all use the premise to cause a scene. Even if the people you had invited all arrived, you similarly will look for trouble out of nothing. And your inherent goal is just having the matter of fancying Jin Qinwang spread out, so as to escape from your predetermined fate. In your eyes, you’re Great Wei’s most esteemed princess. Right now, it’s just becoming a side consort of a wangye that held no power and no influence. In addition to the two countries’ hostile standing, if this matter succeeds, then no matter what, it’s Qi Yuan benefiting, so Qi Yuan has no reason to refuse. With you causing an uproar over this matter, they just need to push along the waves. Then, after spreading some more gossip and rumors outside, when time comes, Great Wei can only grant your wish. This is what you’re thinking, right?”

Princess Yi Ning got completely seen through, thus she no longer hid, instead becoming bold and arrogant towards this eldest imperial brother of hers, “So what if it is?”

“Yi Ning, you’re Great Wei’s di princess, honorable beyond normal. Great Wei gave birth to you and raised you, giving you the best of everything, yet you, because of a selfish wish, disregard the entire Great Wei’s face and interest. Who can you live up to? Even if it’s imperial father, if he were to know, afraid he would all wish to have you slapped to death.”

Princess Yi Ning’s complexion was cold and gloomy. Even that pair of beautiful eyes, at this time, were also drained of light, “I’m Great Wei’s most esteemed di princess? Those low-born spawns from those sluts all didn’t get sent out for a political marriage, each and every one all choosing a fuma in the capital, establishing their princess manor, enjoying all the glory and splendor, living carefreely, yet you all want to have me married to a barren land, alone with no one to depend on, even having one’s life threatened at all times? Since you all treat me as such, why should I even consider for Great Wei? Since you all treat me like this, I naturally need to considered for myself. Great Wei’s interest and face can all go to hell.” Princess Yi Ning hysterically screamed out.

The Former Wei first prince strangely laughed, going forward two steps, suddenly reaching out to pinch Princess Yi Ning’s chin, simply not allowing her to struggle, “For you to end up like this today, exactly whose fault it is, you are the most clear. If not for those matters, would you get pushed out for a political marriage? Yi Ning, you should know, to have not sentenced you to death is already an enormous act of benevolence. Even thinking of enjoying the glory and wealth in the capital city, are you dreaming? Originally, if you were to behave, this older brother perhaps can even help you and choose a better husband for you, but the things you’ve done have made this older brother very unhappy, so what should we do?”

Princess Yi Ning slapped aside his hand, “It wasn’t my fault, it wasn’t my fault, just because he’s male, the crown prince, and I’m a girl, everything should be shouldered by me? Based on what? Based on what?” She had a deranged look, her eyes full of unwillingness to resign, resentment, and endless unspeakable sorrow.

The Former Wei first prince’s eyes nevertheless flashed with excitement. So turns out, it was all true. If he were to grab onto some actual evidence, then Great Wei’s crown prince that’s rising like the midday sun…………

“Yi Ning, eldest brother also knows that you were wronged. How about this, tell this older brother everything. As long as you tell this older brother, this older brother will help you stay in Qi Yuan, how about it?”

Princess Yi Ning gradually returned to her senses, “You’re trying to bluff information out of me?” Clearly he was acting like he knew everything, but thinking it over, if he really knew, then he would’ve long taken this matter to deal with the crown prince. How could he possibly still not have any movements until now? After all, this matter long wasn’t just one or two days ago. It was her momentarily losing control of her emotions………

“You can also think of it like this. Yi Ning, consider this older brother’s words for a moment. If this older brother were to ascend the throne, I will also be your strongest backing, guarantee to not let you suffer the slightest grievance. Even if Great Wei and Qi Yuan break out into war, similarly won’t let any harm come to you. In any case, you already don’t care about Great Wei anymore, and what will happen to the crown prince, you naturally further don’t care. Moreover, it’s his fault that you’re like this now.”

Princess Yi Ning’s eyes flashed conflict. That’s right, it was all his fault, it was all that di older brother of hers fault, but, “Imperial mother…………”

“Really a naive girl, without the Empress nodding her head, you naturally won’t be like this either. It goes without saying, she has already abandoned you.”

“Don’t even try to sow dissension, imperial mother has always loved me the most………….” Princess Yi Ning naturally didn’t believe his words. She remembered, when leaving the capital city, how heartbroken and sad her imperial mother was. As long as there was a way, imperial mother definitely won’t, won’t, won’t………………

“To say you’re naive, you really are naive. By preserving the crown prince, in the future, she can become the Empress Dowager, enjoying all the glory and honor. Without the crown prince, you think she can still have that kind of days? When her position isn’t threatened, you’re naturally just her most beloved child, but you nearly ruined her everything. Afraid she even has the heart to strangle you to death.”

“Impossible———–” Princess Yi Ning screamed out.

“Whether it’s possible or not, you’re actually the most clear inside. To already be like this now, Yi Ning, why continue to deceive yourself?” The Former Wei first prince carried a gentle smile on his lips, clutching Princess Yi Ning’s nape, forcing Princess Yi Ning to look directly at him, “Although Yi Ning is a little arrogant and willful, but still not an ignorant moron, right?”

Unknown as to whether or not his action or words had an effect, Princess Yi Ning gradually calmed down, momentarily staring face to face with the Former Wei first prince. At first, her gaze was still somewhat scattered, seemingly recalling something, but gradually, her eyes became firm. Pushing away her older brother’s hand, she tidied her somewhat messy hair and clothes, returning to that arrogant and willful, yet still can be considered to have perfect bearings, noble princess, “Why should I believe you?”

“Yi Ning, right now, you don’t have any other choice, no? That’s why, you can only trust me.”

Princess Yi Ning’s eyes darkened, but she no longer lost her bearing, “Alright, once this matter succeeds, prior to you leaving Qi Yuan’s capital, I will tell you.”

The Former Wei first prince nodded with a smile, not expressing any dissatisfaction towards this.

As such, between the two siblings, an agreement was reached. Under the Former Wei first prince’s arrangements, some matters just became increasingly ‘clear’.

To the extent that in less than two days, the emissaries from the other countries that arrived in succession all heard about this matter.

For Li Hong Yuan, this was just like a romantic love affair, having exuberant luck with women. The most unpleasant thing was also nothing more than, ‘merely having a good face, yet still unable to make up for the fact that he has no good points’. The one that suffered the most was naturally still Princess Yi Ning. The societal background was just as such. Even if suffering unfair treatment, getting harmed, they would still have to endure even more gossip and rumors, receiving the most harsh criticism. Moreover, she was even Former Wei’s princess. No matter who she falls for, the criticism would all be lighter than falling for someone of Qi Yuan. Because not only would they attack her from a petty angle, but further would criticize her from the country’s angle. Originally, the others of Former Wei should’ve been her backing, yet at this time, there was just indifference and heartlessness, even criticizing her even more than outsiders.

In the past, she was cupped in the palm by others, hearing lots of flattery and getting fawned over, yet now what filled the ears were completely just slander and criticism, as unpleasant sounding as it can be. Even the people serving her all didn’t console her. Although they weren’t like the others, they still looked to her with an incomprehensible look, afterwards, just facing her with silence.

Princess Yi Ning just felt wronged and indignant. She merely fell for a man, not like she did something that offended the heavens, so why must each and every one all treat her like this? Under towering rage, she naturally just smashed all kinds of things, having the closest people by her side all driven out.

For this kind of thing, the only one Princess Yi Ning was able to recount her grievances to was instead just her eldest brother.

The Former Wei first prince actually did as she wished and softly consoled her, but in reality, he simply wasn’t sincere at all. Based on the fact that the Former Wei first prince was rather similar in personality and character to Qi Yuan’s Rui Qinwang, one should just know, if he truly was attentive, then he wouldn’t have said such perfunctory words.

“Why did things get this big? This is how you’re helping me?” Listening to him repeat those same few words, Princess Yi Ning felt increasingly angry, and began to question in discontent. In any case, right now, it was this eldest brother of hers having something to request of her, so she wasn’t scared.

The Former Wei first prince didn’t get angry either. Although it’s unknown whether he really wasn’t angry, or just pretending, “Yi Ning’s words are really hurtful. If not for this older brother blocking, you would’ve long been pointed at and scolded by the accompanying Great Wei officials. You know that this time there’s that famous iron mouth imperial censor accompanying along. As long as he catches something, he won’t show any mercy. He’s the most upright and selfless. Even imperial father all endlessly headache towards him. The matter this time, you think he will easily let go? For him to not come looking for you, all of this pressure, this older brother has to bear for you. Yi Ning, these words of yours really saddens this older brother.”

Upon hearing this, Princess Yi Ning couldn’t help but tremble. Back in Great Wei, because of some of her matters, she implicated her imperial mother in getting accused of misconduct. Towards that old man, she both detested and feared. But, this person’s style of work didn’t have any problems, and he was also loyal and devoted, so even if imperial father headached, he still never once punished him. Thinking to here, she gritted her teeth in anger.
