Rebirth Of The Female Antagonist: XUANRONG Chapter 134: He Came

"My beloved Official Chen, what are your thoughts about it?"
Hearing Xu Ji Mo's inquires, the entire palace court fell into silence once again. The ministers and court officials who were rejoicing few minutes ago closed their mouth and perked their ears, wanting to hear Chen Zi Tao response.
Being married into the imperial family was indeed a blessing in every n.o.ble clan, but… that would only apply if one could live up to their expectation. Same with every n.o.ble and powerful family clans in every country, when selecting engagement for their children, they would not only consider the status of that person but they would also consider if that person was capable enough to hold up the rear and bring prosperity to the family.
The t.i.tle of Xu Qingw.a.n.g's wife, Qinw.a.n.gFei, was indeed a good thing to hear. Living in a luxurious life filled with wealth and be a member of the imperial family were desired by many… but… even so, none of the n.o.ble families wanted to send their precious daughters they painstakingly raised to become the wife of Xu Fei Yi. Who would want to have a stupid and childish person as their son-in-law?
None.
Even if Xu Fei Yi's status was only a rank lower than the Emperor and had a very handsome face, no one would want him.
All the ladies in the capital would rather marry a man with a lowly position in the court and had a mediocre face than choose to be the wife of a mentally r.e.t.a.r.ded person.
Who did not know Xu Fei Yi's sickness? Xu Fei Yi was infamous of two things. One, the Emperor's unconditional love towards him and the second was his uncurable sickness, his mental disorder.
Although other people would want the fame and wealth his t.i.tle bring, they knew they had to sacrifice… and they were not willing. Thus, when the Imperial Decree was sent in the Xuan family, betrothing Xu Fei Yi and XuanRong, almost every n.o.ble family in the entire capital secretly rejoiced. At least, their daughter was saved and would no longer fear in being selected as Xu Fei Yi's wife.
If one would think carefully, only XuanLi was willing to sacrifice in order to fulfill his desire and use the Prince of the First Rank's Palace to elevate his status.
"My beloved official Chen, why are you not answering Zhen? Could it be…. You think that Yi'er does not deserve your granddaughter, that is why you are against Zhen's plan to hurry their marriage?"
Xu Ji Mo's words were full of sharpness, one could sense his dissatisfaction towards Chen Zi Tao's silence.
The ministers and court officials could only lower their head in fear. They were afraid of being implicated once the Emperor goes and punish Chen Zi Tao.
Chen Zi Tao could only clench his hands. Even if he wanted to oppose and use his family's power to reject the Emperor's proposal, he couldn't. His three sons were at the front line, while his other son was sent for an expedition. If he would show any disagreement in front of the Emperor, Chen Zi Tao knew that the ones who would be in danger were not him and XuanRong but his sons who were currently away.

Chen Zi Tao, after serving the imperial family for many decades and had served two Emperors in his life, he had been in different situations and had seen many things. He somewhat understood Xu Ji Mo's black heart. His paranoia, greed and cruelty, Chen Zi Tao could see it… but he blindly believed that it was necessary in governing the country… but he was wrong… and it was too late before he realized it… his precious granddaughter had already been implicated… and his family was already walking in a brittle sh.e.l.l.
'Rong'er ah… grandfather wants to apologize… grandfather could not stop your marriage with Xu Qinw.a.n.g… will you resent grandfather for being unable to protect you?'
Chen Zi Tao sighed in regret.
"Your Majesty is thinking too deeply. This humble general is beyond happy." Chen Zi Tao half-kneeled and cupped his hand.
"Thanking Emperor for His Grace!"
Chen Zi Tao lowered his head. Thus, no one was able to see the hatred inside his eyes.
-----------
Just a matter of time before the news of Xu Fei Yi and XuanRong's marriage circulated in the entire capital. Many were laughing secretly, especially the n.o.bles, saying that both were perfectly fit with each other.
A mentally r.e.t.a.r.ded person and an uneducated mountain shrew.
While the entire country was secretly gloating to XuanRong's misfortune in marrying a stupid man, the imperial palace once again released a shocking news. In order to celebrate the upcoming Imperial Marriage, they would exempt the commoners for paying the tax for half a year and would even give provisions to the places outside the capital. All the prisoners who were sentenced for a capital punishment, such as death by decapitation, hanging and dismemberment, would be pardoned, sparing their lives. Instead, they would be imprisoned for a lifetime.
The news greatly pleased the citizens but only those who were keen and sharp could tell that everything was only a diversion for the previous rumor.
But... who cared?
The commoners were happy.
While the entire country was celebrating, on the other hand, Baili Chen was in a deep s.h.i.+t.
After drinking heavily inside a brothel, he saw some of his friends. Unable to decline, he was forced to accompany them. In the middle of festivity, one of his friends jokingly ordered a male prost.i.tute and played with it. At an age where one was adventurous and brave, it was understandable to experience something knew.
At first, Baili Chen was only looking at them, feeling disgusted. Later on, as time pa.s.sed by, he suddenly felt envious towards the male prost.i.tute. Who would have thought that due to being drunk, all the inhibitions were thrown away like a dirty rag. They started performing an orgy. Baili Chen did not know when it happened, but when he realized it, someone was already poking his chrysanthemum, grinding his insides. He wanted to reject but he could not.
He felt great.
After a few months of failure, finally… he came.
He came a couple of times repeatedly.
When Baili Chen woke up the next day, he found himself under a man's embrace. Sensing the hard thing on his b.u.t.t, Baili Chen freaked out. He felt like he lost his soul.
'f.u.c.k!!!'
