Chu Wang Fei

by Ning er

  Then, they faintly heard the leader of the ceremony exclaim, "Deliver them to the bridal room!" hence, everyone reluctantly went back to their respective seats.

  Su Qian Yue was fervently discussing what had just happened with Qi Ling'er, so she felt the urge to drink and casually lifted the wine cup, drinking three cups in a row before she felt relaxed again.

  "Yun xiaojie, you seemed to be quite tired with that look on your face." Qi Ling'er worriedly glanced at Yun Qian Meng, then blaming herself, and said, "It is all my fault. I'd known that Yun xiaojie was already feeling unwell, yet I still stubbornly dragged you here to Yuan fu."

  Yun Qian Meng propped her cheeks on her palms, looking very weak as she said, "Princess, please forgive me for not being able to accompany you further. Qian Meng must leave first."

  Yun Qian Meng then stood up, but her feet staggered and she almost fell to the ground, frightening Mu Chun and the two others. They quickly caught her and helped her sit down once more, their expressions seemed very anxious and worried. "Xiaojie, please sit down, nubi will call for the porter of a palanquin."

  But before Mu Chun could even advanced a step, Su Qian Yue stood up and stopped her, "Your xiaojie is already like this, how could she still sit inside a palanquin? Please take her to the guest room to rest. It's best to return to xiangfu only when she feels a bit better."

  Yun Qian Meng only weakly waved her hand and spoke in a strained voice, "I ought not to. Mu Chun, help me up."

  Yun Qian Meng then struggled to stand up, but she felt too dizzy and her eyes were losing focus. She ended up falling heavily back.

  Seeing her like this, Su Qian Yue's eyes were heated as she turned to Mu Chun and the two others, "It's already this bad, yet you still allow her to act so willfully and make a scene! Quickly, help your xiaojie up and follow me at once."

  Su Qian Yue went as far as to personally support Yun Qian Meng together with Mu Chun, one person on each side, keeping Yun Qian Meng up as they proceeded towards a side room with quick steps.

  At this moment, the guests were already sitting in the gardens, filling up allocated yards. As a result, all the servants were basically waiting upon their masters, so the path they took was surprisingly empty of any other people.

  Su Qian Yue hurriedly assisted Yun Qian Meng inside a clean guest room, before she allowed the her yatou to support Yun Qian Meng up onto the bed. Afterwhich, she instructed her own yatou to immediately look for a physician.

  When everything was settled, Mu Chun and the two others were instructed to wait outside, in order to avoid disturbing Yun Qian Meng's rest.

  However, when Su Qian Yue turned around, she felt a heaviness in her head and swayed a bit. Immediately, she tried to shake off the fuzziness from her head and clear it, yet the more she shook her head, the more her vision grew disjoined. This immediately alarmed Su Qian Yue but before she could call out, her body was already falling to the ground. Yuan Dong was quick to move behind her, finishing her off with a chop of her hand, and effortlessly made Su Qian Yue sink into dreamland.

  Yun Qian Meng sat up from the bed by the time Su Qian Yue had collapsed. She allowed Mu Chun and the others two to lift Su Qian Yue onto the bed.

  Once the drug had taken effect, although Su Qian Yue remained unconscious, she was starting to tear apart the clothes on her body out of agony. Her face turned scarlet with a completely unnatural flush that anyone who saw her would know what was going on with her.

  "It seems that I am right on time." The figure of Chu Fei Yang appeared by the doorway of the guest room, followed closely behind by Xi Lin who was carrying an unconscious Yuan Qing Zhou over his shoulder.

  Yun Qian Meng's brows slightly rose, but her eyes hinting to Chu Fei Yang that she understood. Apparently, Chu Fei Yang did not only arrange her a bodyguard out in the open, perhaps also had several people assigned to secretly follow her. How else would he know that something had happened to her with just that one signal?

  "Uhm...Ah…" Su Qian Yue was subconsciously groaning gently on the bed, her concupiscent voice caused Mu Chun and the others to blush, while a murderous glint flashed through Chu Fei Yang's smiling eyes. Immediately he shot Xi Lin a look before hurriedly pulled Yun Qian Meng out of the guest room himself. The small group quietly hid in a corner, watching Su Qian Yue's yatou lead a daifu and his apprentice inside the guest room.

  "Ah!!" a sharp cry suddenly broke through the skies, startling the birds nestled on the trees into taking flight in alarm. The people in the garden immediately set aside what they were doing and came rushing.

  "What's the matter?" people fell over each other in their eagerness to rush to where the scream came from, yet they only saw a physician and his apprentice standing outside a room. Among the two, one only stood there blanched face, while the other was flushed and staring down at his feet. The crowd thought them odd, so they could not help focusing at room behind the tightly closed door.

  "What's going on?" Lin laotaijun and Yuan de taifei had also hurried over, the crowd automatically giving way to them. Lin laotaijun's keen eyes swept over the physician, and immediately said sternly, "Where did you come from, daifu? Why did you show up here inside my Han Guo Gongfu?"

  The physician had never seen someone which as much grandeur as this old madam. After the scene he had witnessed a while ago, he felt that the situation was pretty bad, so he faltered and did not know how to respond.

  Lin laotaijun did not have the patience to wait for his response, so she called out for a servant behind her to quickly tie up the two of them. Just when she was about to have the two sent away, an extremely dubious moan echoed from inside the room, immediately triggering everyone's imagination to run wild...

  "Break this door open! I want to see what kind of people dared to behave atrociously within my Han Guo Gongfu!" Lin laotaijun roared with extreme anger, frightening all the servants who hastened to smash the wooden door open. In a short while, the wooden door collapsed, but the scene inside caused everyone great shock.

  Su Qian Yue's yatou was trying to use what little time she had to help her xiaojie put her clothes back on, yet this Yuan gongzi was unexpectedly incredibly powerful. Without regards for anything, he threw himself at Su Qian Yue, tore off her clothes without hesitation.

  The yatou was going to cry out for help at first, but there were the two left standing at the doorway. Then, with this place being Han Guo Gongfu, if she were to call out for someone, hers and her xiaojie's reputations would be ruined.

  Who would have thought that the wooden door would just suddenly fall to the ground. The yatou looked at the figures in the doorway with fright. Headed by Lin laotaijun and Yuan de taifei, the faces of all the people in the crowd were staring at her fiercely, scaring her to the point that her eyes rolled back and her body went soft in an instant before she became unconscious. Yuan Qing Zhou had stirred from the loud sound, suddenly he stopped and looked more clearly. His arms were actually holding a yatou he had never met before, while the arrogant yet unconscious woman, Su Qian Yue, lay on the bed in front of him as well.

  The clothes on Su Qian Yue's body were completely off, and a few red plum flowers were, to his shock, sprinkled all over the silver white bed, allowing Yuan Qing Zhou to realize what he had done.

  Everyone was shocked by the scene before their eyes. Who would have expected that the lady of Su family would openly seduce the groom during the wedding day of Wu Guo Gongfu's xiaojie. And from what they could see, Su Qian Yue had also had the assistance of her yatou. How was this kind of behavior different from a slut? Taking away another person's husband during their wedding day was like giving the Wu family's xiaojie a big slap on the face!

  "Please return now, all of you!" Lin laotaijun felt that she was on the brink of losing the brazenness born of her old age. If it had been in the past, she would still have been able to tolerate the playful behavior of her grandson.

  But on such a significant day like today, he did not even consider the severity of his actions. Moreove
r, he was even doing such scandalous acts in front of all these noble families. It was truly an affront to his family, how would Lin laotaijun ever step out of her own house in the future?

  When Lin laotaijun barked the order, the servants of Yuan fu started to drive the people away, giving no explanation until only the two who remained were Lin laotaijun and Yuan de taifei.

  "Grandmother, Aunt, I…" Yuan Qing Zhou immediately pulled up his pants then knelt down before them, trying to explain, though he knew not how.

  Slap!

  Lin laotaijun hit Yuan Qing Zhou's face so hard that his head followed the direction of the blow.

  Yuan Qing Zhou himself clearly knew that the grandmother who favored him most was really angered this time, so he did not dare retort. He quietly knelt down before the two and made no sound.

  "You, wake up your xiaojie!" Lin laotaijun instructed, pointing her walking stick towards the yatou now curled up in a corner and weeping softly.

  The little yatou hugged her body tighter, incessantly pulling up the clothing that was not covering her body. Then, with tears across her face, she ran to Su Qian Yue and pulled at the naked Su Qian Yue who was now covered by a thin quilt. She exerted great strength to shake Su Qian Yue, crying lowly, "Xiaojie! Xiaojie!"

  But as the little yatou called out for so long, Su Qian Yue had not awaken. Lin laotaijun's patience was already wearing thin, so she commanded the servants outside the door, "Go and have Su Yuan come over! Let him see his own good daughter here!"

  Yuan de taifei then said in an ice-cold tone, "And at the same time, invite Chen wang over. Don't alarm anyone from Wu Guo Gongfu."

  "Even if you wish not to alarm anyone, doesn't mean that it hasn't already happened. How many pairs of eyes were here a while ago to witness everything? Those noble ladies lacked sense, they sit around everyday, keeping an eyes open for the next scandal happening in rich and influential families. Do you think this matter can be concealed forever? The Wu family might already know what happened right this moment!" Lin laotaijun was utterly furious, her hands gripped the walking stick as she fiercely struck the ground with it. Her eyes glared at Su Qian Yue as if she were her most hated nemesis.

  Just as laotaijun feared, along with Wu furen, Wu Qin Qin tore off the red veil on her head as they hurriedly rushed inside the room. When the two of them saw the scene, Wu Qin Qin was greatly infuriated. She even rushed to the bed, sparing no effort as she pushed aside the yatou. Raising a hand she used all her strength to smack Su Qian Yue's face "Slut, slut, slut!"

  Wu Qin Qin's heart was full of hatred. She had been unwilling to marry Yuan Qing Zhou. Who would want to marry a person with his flowery reputation so notorious in the eyes of the public eyes?

  But ever since that incident, though Wu Qin Qin was unwilling, she could only be pressured by her family to hop onto the marriage sedan.

  But quite unexpectedly, after they had just gone through their wedding rites, to her surprise, he had so publicly feasted on another woman inside his house. How could Wu Qin Qin save her reputation now? Was it because her Wu Guo Gongfu could not compare to some minor second rank official, or was it because Wu Qin Qin was incomparable to a vixen like Su Qian Yue that Yuan Qing Zhou itched to get intimate with the other woman on her own wedding day?

  The more she thought, the angrier she became and felt more pity for herself, while the strength in Wu Qin Qin's hands also grew heavier. Though Lin laotaijun and Yuan de taifei knew that this useless thing in their family was the one to blame for lacking in restraint, they let Wu Qin Qin be and allowed her to beat up Su Qian Yue instead.

  After watching her daughter being wronged the very first day she entered this family, but unable to get angry with Lin laotaijun and Yuan de taifei, Wu furen rushed to the bedside and fiercely beat Su Qian Yue together with Wu Qin Qin.

  Su Qian Yue felt her cheeks burning with pain, while her body was suffering from pain that felt like she had been ripped apart. Hearing a buzzing in her ears, she opened her eyes…

  The first thing that appeared before her were the malevolent faces of the mother and daughter of Wu family. Before Su Qian Yue could open her mouth to utter a word, her face was violently struck, then she felt pain in her scalp. Once Wu Qin Qin saw her awake, she became even more furious and yanked Su Qian Yue's long hair, shake Su Qian Yue's head with all her might before knocking the head harshly against the bed board.

  "Help! Help! Help me!" after a long while, Su Qian Yue finally regained her voice, but only after she spat out a few teeth. A mouthful of blood sprayed out along with all her inarticulate yelling, splattering onto Wu Qin Qin's clothes, making her originally bright red wedding dress look even more vivid.

  But the mother and daughter pair of the Wu family continuously beat Su Qian Yue in turns, while one person tightly held down Su Qian Yue's body, giving her no chance to fight back.

  "Tsk tsk, how miserable!" Yun Qian Meng mumbled to herself with slightly pursed brows as she looked at Su Qian Yue's swollen cheeks.

  "Shh, don't make a sound!" Chu Fei Yang's extremely low voice echoed beside her ear as Yun Qian Meng felt the hand on her waist tighten as he drew her body closer to his.

  Just then, from the corner opposite them, the ice-cold Chen wang happened to appear, followed by Su Yuan with a face full of anxiety. If Chu Fei Yang had been a bit slower, perhaps Yun Qian Meng's location might have been exposed.

  She could not help stick out her tongue. Yun Qian Meng had learned from experience, with the appearance of Jiang Mu Chen, the situation would be harder to deal with compared to only Lin laotaijun and Yuan de taifei who knew nothing about martial arts. Since she already seen what she wanted to see, Yun Qian Meng was currently thinking of of returning home.

  Chu Fei Yang leaned closer to Yun Qian Meng and softly asked her, "Meng'er, I did you a huge favor today, how do you plan to thank me?"

  Before Yun Qian Meng could glare at him, he already released his hands smilingly, and allowing Xi Lin to lead them away from the crowd and back into the garden, before he walked towards the direction of the front yard.

  "Yun xiaojie, where have you been?" Qi Ling'er said in a serious tone moments after Yun Qian Meng returned to the garden.

  Yun Qian Meng watched Qi Ling'er's expression, then she laughed and asked, "I felt dizzy a while ago, so I led the yatou around for a walk. Huh? Where is Su xiaojie?"

  Yun Qian Meng looked around in all directions, yet she could not find Su Qian Yue.

  Qi Ling'er sighed softly, then pulled Yun Qian Meng down to sit, before she said in a low voice, "Yun xiaojie, something big has happened!"

  Yun Qian Meng pretended to have no idea why Qi Ling'er was speaking so enthusiastically and laughed, "Princess, what is going on with you? This is Han Guo Gongfu, what major thing could happen in here?"

  Qi Ling'er stared at Yun Qian Meng's expression, then, in a flustered tone as if the incident had happened to herself, she said, "This… Oh dear… I wonder how you would want me to tell you this matter?"

  "Since you find it hard to speak about it, then there's no need to mention anything about it, princess. Qian Meng is really not feeling well, I shall take my leave now." Yun Qian Meng then stood up, preparing to leave, but just as she turned around, she saw the gloomy and cold Chen wang standing at the entrance of the garden.

  Chapter 110: Part 1: Chen Wang Makes Things Difficult, Chu Xiang Comes to the Rescue | Chu Wang Fei

  Chen wang stood by the entrance of the garden with eyes full of austerity as he glanced at everyone inside, so the furen and xiaojie who were still whispering in discussion about the incident with Yuan Qing Zhou and Su Qian Yue effectively shut their mouths one after another, and lowered their heads as they contently ate the delicious food presented before them.

  But Chen wang's identity and status, as well as his appearance, he was still able to garner stealthly glances from those xiaojie, with hopes that Chen wang would take notice of one of them amongst the crowd.

  But within the garden, his eyes were fo
cused solely at the area where Yun Qian Meng and Qi Ling'er were seated.

  Yun Qian Meng felt a bit annoyed at Chen wang's eyes fixating at her direction, but she still maintained her smile as she turned to Qi Ling'er to tease her. "Princess, wangye is looking at you! You must approach him and say hello."

  Qi Ling'er had originally planned to take the initiative and strike first, yet Yun Qian Meng was unexpectedly quicker and had stolen the key moment. Sure enough, after Yun Qian Meng said the words, Qi Ling'er sensed the resentful and envious glances being shot towards her from all directions.

  Observing Yun Qian Meng once again, she appeared to be smiling beautifully with an unconcerned look on her face, causing a flicker of anger in Qi Ling'er's heart, but she kept face virtuous as she replied, "Yun Qian Meng, you must be joking. Wangye must have come here due to the matter concerning Su xiaojie. If you don't believe me, we can bet on it."

  "Make a bet?" as Yun Qian Meng was delicately tasting the words, a dimple on her right cheek was faintly discernible, attracting other people's tender affection towards her magnificent bearing.

  "Oh yes! A bet, let's see whose guess is more accurate." At Yun Qian Meng's hesitation, Qi Ling'er smiled and said soothingly, "Yun xiaojie, please don't be too nervous, just treat it as a small game. It won't bring you any harm, Yun xiaojie, and neither will you lose face."

  Qi Ling'er seemed to be using psychological tactics to force her into something, so Yun Qian Meng's gaze slightly turned towards Chen wang. She noticed his vicious gaze aimed at her, so she immediately glanced back at Qi Ling'er beside her, then laughed before replying, "Princess, you are an honored guest of Western Chu. Even if Qian Meng were insensible, I would still not make such a bet with the princess! Besides, Qian Meng is a daughter of an honorable family, I'm fully aware of the importance of morality and conduct. Thus, I wouldn't wish to do anything that would negatively reflect on my morality and conduct, or risk being mocked by people everywhere. So please accept my apologies, princess."
