Xie Zhao tapped the table lightly and asked, "Didn't you say that Princess Ning'an and Young Master Yu went out together? Where is Young Master Yu?"
"Yes, yes, Yaoyao went out with Ziying. How could she be lost? Where is Ziying?" Yu Kangjing paced back and forth in the room anxiously.
"The third young master of the Yu family is tasting dishes at Yunxiao Tower. He said that Princess Ning'an has gone home," a subordinate of the Hidden Lin Guard replied.
"Continue the investigation. Don't alert too many people," Xie Zhao calmly gave the order.
"It seems we won't be able to conduct a blood test today. Once we find Princess Ning'an, we'll trouble you all to come to Anlintai together."
After saying that, he left the Yu family.
After he left, Yu Kangping and Cui Ruixin also left.
“We also need to send people to look for Yaoyao. If something happens to her and our people rescue her in time, she might choose to return to the Marquis’s mansion,” Cui Ruixin advised Yu Kangping.
Yu Kangping thought what she said made a lot of sense, so he quickly ordered the servants of the Marquis's mansion to go and look for the person.
The Yu Kangjing family was also busy; all the men in the family went out to look for help.
Meanwhile, Yu Ningyao, whom everyone was searching for, was sitting in the private residence of the Fourth Prince, Pei Wuji.
"I wonder what brings the Fourth Prince to stop me?" Yu Ningyao asked, feeling puzzled.
Why did Pei Wuji suddenly go crazy and "invite" her to his mansion?
"Why did you break the contract?" Pei Wuji stared at Yu Ningyao's face, as if trying to find the answer in her expression.
What happened that night was completely unexpected.
Yu Ningyao actually got her wish and became the Crown Princess.
Although she was not the Crown Princess of Xiangguo.
The more he thought about it, the more uneasy he felt. He sent several messages to Yu Ningyao, but she didn't reply.
Left with no other choice, he had to resort to this desperate measure and personally stop her.
He always wanted to get to the bottom of things.
What exactly is Yu Ningyao up to?
"Breach of contract?" Yu Ningyao rolled her eyes.
"You didn't agree to it that day, so how can you talk about breaking the contract?"
"Besides, I didn't ask for the arranged marriage later."
Pei Wuji: ...
What she said does make some sense.
His father's bestowal of a marriage was indeed beyond his expectations.
He was waiting for her to make a choice when he never expected that Prince Yunchi would suddenly appear.
"Is there anything else? If not, I'll be going now." Yu Ningyao was planning to go and ask Yun Chubai about the next steps.
“I have another question,” Pei Wuji stopped her.
"Please speak, Fourth Prince." Out of respect for his status, Yu Ningyao still asked politely.
"You just want to be the Crown Princess, right? No matter who that person is." Pei Wuji finally made some sense of it.
That day, Yu Ningyao said that she only wanted to be the Crown Princess, so she would not choose Lu Lingguang.
He thought she was just fooling him, but he didn't expect her to actually choose Yun Chubai.
Yu Ningyao nodded.
"Yes, that's it."
Pei Wuji said, "If that's the case, why don't you stay here? Once I become the Crown Prince, you will be the rightful Crown Princess. You won't need to go thousands of miles away from your family."
Yu Ningyao had given him several pieces of information before, and they were all accurate.
If such a person were sent to Yun Chi, he would not be able to use him and would surely cause great disaster to Xiang Guo in the future.
“I can promise you that I won’t take any concubines. But Crown Prince Yun Chi might not be so willing to agree. Princess Ning’an is so clever, you should know better than anyone who would be more advantageous to you, right?” Pei Wuji wanted to use this reason to keep Yu Ningyao.
He did not want to resort to force unless absolutely necessary.
Yu Ningyao: ...
She really wanted to say that Yun Chubai had already agreed to all her conditions.
However, to outsiders, she and Yun Chubai did not know each other, and this fact could not be revealed.
So she had no choice but to politely decline.
"Thank you for your kind words, Your Highness, but the Emperor has already decreed that my marriage to Yun Chi is a foregone conclusion. I wish Your Highness will soon find a consort of your choice."
"I have my own way of arranging this matter. You just need to stay." Pei Wuji showed no intention of backing down.
Yu Ningyao asked curiously, "Does Your Highness have any way to prevent me from marrying Yun Chi and still become your imperial concubine?"
"I have a brilliant plan. You just need to agree." Pei Wuji didn't tell the truth.
After a moment of silence, Yu Ningyao said, "This matter is too risky, let's just forget about it. Your Highness can pretend that what happened that day never happened."
"So you don't want to stay, right?" Pei Wuji saw through her rejection.
[It's best if everyone just knows the truth; why bring it up? It's so awkward.]
She secretly grumbled to herself.
Yu Ningyao forced a smile: "Your Highness, this is not a decision I can make."
Pei Wuji stared at her intently, then sighed: "Yu Ningyao, I have given you a chance."
Hearing him suddenly call her by her full name, Yu Ningyao instinctively felt a chill run down her spine.
"Men, take her away." Pei Wuji gave the order, and twelve black-clad guards appeared and surrounded her.
Yu Ningyao frowned.
"Fourth Prince, what do you mean by this?"
"If you can't make a choice, then I will make the choice for you. Yu Ningyao, stay by my side." Pei Wuji waved his hand slightly, and the guards moved.
Yu Ningyao took off the soft whip from her waist, somewhat annoyed.
"Fourth Prince, stop now, and I can pretend nothing happened. Once I leave here today, I won't say a word. Otherwise, don't blame me for fighting you to the death."
She took a half step back, and with her right hand, she lashed out with a three-zhang (approximately 10 meters) soft whip, which crackled through the air.
The black-clad guards surrounded them from all sides and closed in.
Pei Wuji said calmly, "Leave her here."
Upon hearing this, Yu Ningyao knew that the negotiations had failed.
If you want to leave, you can only do it on your own.
The lead guard rushed forward first, but Yu Ningyao spun around to avoid the blade and lashed the guard's wrist with the tip of her whip.
Before the knife had even hit the ground, another blade attacked from behind.
Yu Ningyao crouched down and brushed past, her soft whip wrapping around the attacker's ankle and yanking him hard. The man was instantly thrown into the air, smashing a nearby chair to pieces.
Then someone else flanked them.
Yu Ningyao was furious. She leaped into the air, stepping on the table, and swept her long whip across the faces of several people.
They collided and screamed.
When Yu Ningyao landed, she staggered half a step, and the fabric on her left shoulder was ripped open, leaving a bloody gash.
"Twelve against one, the Fourth Prince thinks too highly of me." Yu Ningyao gritted her teeth in anger.
She continued to crack the whip, lashing the two men off their feet in mid-air.
She fought with increasing vigor and wanted to continue her attack, but her waist was caught by a chain that had been used to sneak up on her and she was pulled down heavily.
The moment she landed, four long swords were simultaneously placed against her neck.
Yu Ningyao bit her lip and glared angrily at Pei Wuji.
You shameless bastard!
Pei Wuji walked up to her, seemingly oblivious to the resentment on her face.
He took out a handkerchief and gently wiped away the blood and sweat from her face.
"Don't worry, I just want to keep you here, I won't hurt you."
Yu Ningyao felt a chill.
Damn it, she was worried that Yu Ruowei would be imprisoned by the Crown Prince, but now look what happened, she's been locked up by Pei Wuji first.
These two are truly brothers.
In terms of being perverted, they are truly identical.
