Poison Doctor Demon Consort Chapter 3

An Emperor’s imperial edict, how can it be canceled?  Emperor Zhu Yin Xi’s brows wrinkled .   For a while, he remained lost in thought and silence .

At this moment, a voice placidly rang in the Jin Luan Hall: “This officer’s daughter mind is indeed seriously damaged, unable to match with sixth lord, asking Your Majesty to break off the engagement!”

This was the voice of Linghu General who was lying on the stretcher .   Once this voice sounded, the civil and military officials were as silent as the cicadas against the coming frost, no one dared to say anything .

However, overlooking the the civil and military officials in Jin Luan Hall, it was clear half of the people had grief and indignation on their faces, respectfully disagreeing with the actions of Qi w.a.n.g’s who simply has a virtuous reputation outside .

Linghu General’s merits was so high that it overcast the king’s might!  Today, even though he was lying down, half of the people on court felt his imposing might that caused one’s heart to tremble from his voice .

Yet, he said so himself, his daughter Linghu Shui Yue is no longer well-matched for sixth lord and asks His Majesty to give a decree to break off the engagement .   If Linghu General was standing as he spoke today, maybe the situation would be different; however, he was carried back lying down today… .

The Emperor was hesitant at first but couldn’t withstand several of “sixth lord’s faction” people’s support, said a lot of high-sounding reasons for breaking off the engagement, in the end, gave an edict to break off the engagement .

Sixth lord Zhu You Chen received the edict that would break off his engagement as if obtaining a treasure, his hands holding it shook, impa.s.sioned with excitement .

Up till he left Jin Luan Hall, he still cradled that imperial edict, finally believing that the engagement that made him suffer a decade more of shame was void!

His shoulder was slapped and he turned his head .   It was You w.a.n.g, the ninth lord, Zhu You Hong dressed in silver war armor .

“Sixth brother, let’s send Linghu General back to General’s residence together?” Zhu You Hong asked .

Zhu You Chen immediately agreed: “Okay!  We’ll send Linghu General back to the General’s residence . ” He now had the imperial decree to break off the engagement in his hands .   He no longer had to feel that Linghu Shui Yue was his disgrace .

On the contrary, Zhu You Chen couldn’t wait to go to General’s residence to wash his previous shame!  At the same time, he can declare the imperial decree, lest that mad and stupid Linghu Shui Yue goes everywhere claiming to be his future w.a.n.gfei, causing the world to hear that he has a future stupid w.a.n.gfei .

……

Linghu General’s General’s Manor was located in Yan’s capital city’s northwest corner .

Serene green stone road led into a pavilion with curved cornices, red walls and green tiles .   Under the shades of the green trees, the courtyard seemed ancient .

At this moment, it was currently the hottest time in summer .   It is the season for suns.h.i.+ne and the chirping of cicadas .   In the General’s residence western wing’s garden, amidst the greenery, a servant girl dressed in green hurriedly pa.s.sed through the tiny flower path, rus.h.i.+ng towards the chamber in the western wing .

She was Linghu Shui Yue’s personal maidservant, Su Zi Qing .   She pa.s.sed through the flower path, hurriedly found her young lady under the big tree in the garden .

Linghu Shui Yue was currently clutching a long bamboo pole in both hands .   At the top of the bamboo pole is a small pet, this was an ancient too to catch cicadas .   She carefully stood on the tip of her toes to pounce on a cicada on the tree branch .

From afar, Linghu eldest miss still looked the same .   Dressed in red and green, her hair unkempt, wearing it vulgarly, making people unable to offer any compliments .

Her clothes were absolutely superior in price, the accessories on her head are extremely valuable but her coordination was too unconventional .   Or to put it simply, it was more appropriate to call it uncla.s.sifiable .  

That’s right!  Linghu eldest miss was a crazy, stupid girl who often conducts herself shamefully!
