Chapter 712 took his life!
The next day.
When Wu Yue'er woke up from her nap, thinking about what had happened yesterday, she felt like it was all a nightmare.
I really regret not striking first. I let Song Ruozhen get there first, so I didn't have a chance to vent my anger. Instead, I became a laughing stock!
"Bi'er, did the princes say where they were going today?" Wu Yue'er asked casually.
The maids standing nearby exchanged glances upon hearing this, a hint of panic flashing in their eyes.
"What's wrong?" Wu Yue'er asked, frowning in confusion.
“Princess, there is no invitation today,” Bi’er said tremblingly.
"What?" Disbelief flashed in Wu Yue'er's eyes. "How could there be no invitation? Are you sure you haven't made a mistake?"
Since she arrived in the capital, she has received invitations from princes every day. Although she is determined to marry Chu Junting, she also finds herself very happy to spend time with these princes.
My lady, my gentleman is good.
Among them, she thought the Seventh Prince was not bad, but after the incident at the teahouse last time, the Seventh Prince's attitude changed, which made her very unhappy!
Although the others' attitudes weren't bad after that, she still felt uneasy. Why did the Prince of Yang's attitude towards her change because of Song Ruozhen?
Could it be that Prince Yang has a secret relationship with Song Ruozhen?
Now they've even lost invitations from other princes, what does that mean?
“Princess, since what happened yesterday, the news seems to have spread, so none of the princes have come today.”
Bi'er looked frightened. In fact, the prince had already told the young lady that since the emperor was kind and had given her the opportunity to get to know the prince, she should settle things as soon as possible to avoid any sudden trouble.
Unfortunately, the princess was unwilling at all. These past few days, she'd been finding all sorts of ways to go out with the princes, and her reputation wasn't what it used to be. Not to mention what she did yesterday, it's probably...
Wu Yue'er's face flushed red. "What do you mean by that? Yesterday, this princess was possessed by an evil spirit!"
"Yes, yes," the maid nodded repeatedly.
"Everyone present yesterday knows that I was unintentionally affected by evil spirits, it wasn't my intention. Can't they even see that?"
When Wu Yue'er was cursing, her mouth was pulled so hard that she felt a sharp pain, and then she came to her senses.
"I know, they must have known my face was swollen and I couldn't go out today, so they didn't invite me."
She looked at her swollen, bloodshot face in the mirror; the injury looked quite serious.
"Damn Song Ruozhen, she's so ruthless! I'll remember this!"
The maids standing nearby exchanged glances. They were not as optimistic as the princess; they had all heard the rumors circulating outside that day.
Regardless of whether she was possessed by a ghost or not, for a princess to make such a fool of herself is a complete loss of face.
If any prince were to marry her, wouldn't he be ridiculed to death?
However, they dared not say it aloud, otherwise they would not be able to bear the consequences if the princess became angry.
"By the way, after I left yesterday, did Ao Jie do anything at the Song residence?"
"Your Highness, General Ao Jie and Song Yanzhou, the eldest son of the Song family, have agreed to a battle tonight!" Bi'er reported.
Wu Yue'er's eyes lit up, "Really?"
"This matter was decided by the general in front of everyone at the Song family, causing quite a stir. We will take action tonight."
"I knew I hadn't misjudged Ao Jie. He's always been bold. Even if he can't teach Song Ruozhen a lesson, beating her older brother to a pulp would be just as satisfying!"
Wu Yue'er clenched her fists. The reason she had lost face was all thanks to Song Ruozhen!
Now, she has to turn the tables no matter what!
"Go tell Ao Jie that we must take action tonight and win!"
"Not only do I want to win, I also want Song Yanzhou dead!" Wu Yue'er's eyes were filled with malice. "Since Song Ruozhen said she doesn't welcome me to their family's wedding, then I'll make them hold a funeral!"
"Yes, princess."
……
After learning that the time and place for Song Yanzhou and Ao Jie's duel had been set, Song Ruozhen's eyes lit up with interest.
"Qing Teng, Bai Zhi, you both saw Ao Jie yesterday. Could you have judged his martial arts skills?"
Qing Teng and Bai Zhi exchanged a glance, their expressions immediately turning serious.
“Your Highness, Ao Jie is a general on the battlefield, with countless drops of blood on his hands, and his martial arts skills are definitely not bad,” Qing Teng said earnestly.
They had practiced martial arts in the military camp and had seen many people with high martial arts skills. They could judge a person's skill just by their aura.
“Ao Jie is indeed very strong, but Dong Zhonglang General is even more gifted. I heard about his prowess more than once when I was in the military camp, so I believe there will be no problem with him,” Bai Zhi said.
Both were renowned generals, but in their eyes, Song Yanzhou was definitely more capable.
"His Highness is busy today and may not be back for a while. Go find a few skilled martial artists to come with me tonight."
The two were taken aback. "Your Highness, are you planning a sneak attack?"
Song Ruozhen raised her eyebrows slightly, "You don't know my elder brother well. Everyone knows that he is stronger than Ao Jie. Ao Jie has fought against my elder brother many times on the battlefield. How could you not know his strength?"
Yesterday, Wu Yue'er took him to the Song residence, clearly looking for trouble. At a time like this, do you think... he'd be foolish enough to lose and bring shame upon the Qi Yue Dynasty?
Bai Zhi's eyes widened instantly. "Your Highness, do you mean they'll resort to tricks?"
“That’s for sure!” Song Ruozhen clapped her hands. “But this is our territory. Do you think we’d let my elder brother suffer a loss on our dynasty’s land? Absolutely not!”
Bai Zhi and Qing Teng immediately became excited, knowing that there would definitely be a good show to watch today!
"Your Highness, the Prince has instructed us before that if you need manpower, just tell the steward, and everyone in the manor will be at your beck and call."
"I'll go find the steward right now and have him select a few highly skilled martial artists!" Qing Teng said.
Song Ruozhen nodded in satisfaction, "Okay, I'll leave this matter to you."
As darkness fell, Song Ruozhen appeared on the road that Ao Jie would inevitably take to the arena.
She had already sent someone to find out where Ao Jie was staying, and was waiting there to ambush him. That damned bastard almost killed her older brother, and she had to get revenge!
Besides, this guy was blind to come here; he brought this on himself!
Sure enough, they soon met Ao Jie.
However, he was not alone; there were several strong and powerful men with him, who were clearly not simple in their own right!
"You've all heard the princess's message: Song Yanzhou must be killed today, no matter what!"
Ao Jie's eyes were fierce. It was time to settle all the old and new grudges between him and Song Yanzhou!
I never thought this guy would still be alive. Now that he's killed Song Yanzhou, he can still earn a merit, which is a good thing!
