Pampered Consort of the Fragrant Orchard-Chapter 091.4: The Annoying Prince Ren (4)

“Ah, Prince Ren, an overactive imagination can also be a sign of illness. It’s best for you to seek a consultation with an imperial physician. It will be worse if you let this drag on. The door is behind you, please leave! I won’t be seeing you out!” Feeling too disinclined to continue putting up with this foolish prince, Du Xiaoli headed back into her room right after finishing her sentence.

“Du Xiaoli, This Prince shall ask you. Are you willing or unwilling to marry This Prince?” Han Minghong roared out.

Turning around, Du Xiaoli looked at the somewhat fanatical Han Minghong before replying in a totally resolute voice: “I won’t do stuff like getting involved with two people at once

! Furthermore, studs aren’t my type! So it’s best that you wipe this idea from your mind!”

“This Prince will make sure you follow This Prince obediently!” Han Minghong sneered, “If you’re willing to be with This Prince, This Prince will keep your secret. If not, everyone in the Jiang Hu world will definitely know about the location of the Wind Blowing Snow.”

Du Xiaoli walked towards the window. Thinking that she had changed her mind and was now willing to go with him, a satisfied smile appeared on Han Minghong’s face.

In the end, she merely said, “Suit yourself.”

Then she closed the window shut.

Stunned by Du Xiaoli’s actions, Han Minghong proceeded to roar from outside of the window, “Du Xiaoli, you—! You better not regret this!”

Looking at the tightly shut window while hearing Han Minghong hoot from outside, Du Xiaoli couldn’t help but roll her eyes and curse him, calling him an idiot.

Perhaps Han Minghong was afraid that people would see his tantrum, for he quickly left her residence while feigning disinterest. Otherwise, Du Xiaoli was not sure whether she would be able to resist tossing a basin of foot-washing water out at him.

“Mistress,” Xia Yuan said as she walked over, “What would happen if Prince Ren really revealed information about the secret book?”

“We’ll deal with it when it happens. Besides, with my current strength, they can’t just simply snatch it away from me,” Du Xiaoli replied. “This Han Minghong’s really quite irritating. I have to give him something to be occupied with so he won’t come running here to foul my eyes when he’s too bored.”

“Pfft. Mistress, in the eyes of the other families’ young ladies, Prince Ren is a talented young man, brimming with elegance and poise. Yet, in your eyes, he has become filth,” Xia Yuan said with a laugh.

“Sigh. That’s called having a gilded exterior while being shabby and rotten on the inside. So what if he looks good? The most important thing about a man isn’t his appearance but what’s contained within! If he doesn’t treat you well, would his handsome looks matter at all? Can his appearance be eaten? There are even times where there’s no need to be too handsome at all. If a man looks like a flower, won’t he be stuck with the label of attracting butterflies wherever he goes?” Du Xiaoli responded. Yet as she did so, an image of the divinely handsome Han Mingyi unknowingly surfaced before her eyes.

“Is Mistress talking about your future husband?”

“So what if I talk about him?” Du Xiaoli said. “Who asked him to be that handsome? There’s a saying that goes like this, ‘Men are in charge of earning money to support the family, while women are in charge of appearing as beautiful as flowers.’ Since you said that he is even more beautiful than a flower, could it be that you want to twist this saying around? Have him stay at home to appear as beautiful as a flower while I head outside to earn money to support the family?”

“Pffttt. What kind of logic is this, Mistress?”

“Golden logic,” Du Xiao Li replied as she placed her book on the table. “You three, pay attention to the movements in Sui Yuan Club. Don’t look for me if nothing happens. I’ll head to the pharmacy to research a drug that will cause erectile dysfunction. I want to see if that Han Minghong will continue to show such intentions for me when he can’t raise up his ‘little brother’.”

Du Xiaoli headed out immediately after finishing her sentence, leaving behind a stunned and confused Xia Yuan.

E-Erectile dysfunction? Since when had Mistress become this sinister?! However, that Han Minghong was truly loathsome. If an arrogant and egotistical man like him were to suffer from erectile dysfunction, who knew what kind of response he would have!

However, that meant others would really look forward to seeing his response!

When Han Minghong left Sui Yuan Club, he had no idea that his ‘little brother’ was already being targeted...

At the city gates, Han Mingyi sat on his horse. Ji Liufeng was by his side, and the two people shot occasional looks outside the city gates.

“Prince Ding, what do you think of this? Just after becoming Marquis Zhen, Zhao Zhen didn’t clean up the mess in Northern Yuan but unexpectedly had the mood to run over here instead. Exactly what kind of game is he playing?”

“Northern Yuan is in chaos now. Their emperor has passed away, and the current emperor’s just a 12-year-old kid. Therefore, all of the power and authority now lie in Zhao Zhen’s hands. His title is that of a marquis, but since he holds the feudal lord, he controls the latter’s vassals... or in other words, the emperor and his power. It can be said that his people have already infiltrated many parts of Northern Yuan, so even if he isn’t present there, nothing can shake his position. I’m afraid that his goal for coming to Feng Ming is me,” Han Mingyi replied slowly as he tugged on his horse’s reins.

“Although I didn’t get matched up directly against him during this war, I’ve heard that he has been giving advice to the military this whole time, which cost us quite a lot. If it wasn't for you, our cities might have already been breached!” Ji Liufeng lamented. Although he had always felt that he was very smart, he knew that he wasn’t as good when compared to two people. One of them being Han Mingyi, and the other being Zhao Zhen.

“Indeed, we have to be careful when dealing with him,” Han Mingyi agreed with Ji Liufeng’s words.

“Did he talk about his motive for coming here this time?” Ji Liufeng asked.

“To seek peace,” Han Mingyi tossed those three words out in an indifferent tone.

Although the war against Northern Yuan had already ended, both parties had yet to sit down together and discuss the matter of making peace. Nevertheless, this was normal as both parties needed to properly sort out their own people and matters of compensation, making it hard to come up with a decision in a short period of time.

“However, it won’t be that simple…”
