Little Sorcerer, Divine Doctor-Chapter 873 - 25: Mountains and Rivers as Betrothal, Vowing to Marry Yun Sheng

Chapter 873: Chapter 25: Mountains and Rivers as Betrothal, Vowing to Marry Yun Sheng

"With mountains and rivers as betrothal, I vow to marry Yun Sheng!"

Hou Qin Dugu Xiu saw the eight words on the secret letter, fury roiling in his eyes.

What a Ye Beiming, what a Beiming King, what a mountains and rivers as betrothal, vow to marry Yun Sheng.

After waiting for so many years, Ye Beiming finally couldn’t hold back.

Mountains and rivers as betrothal, vow to marry Yun Sheng!

In this world, apart from him, Ye Beiming, who else could write such eloquent and bold eight words?

Dugu Xiu, upon reading this news, felt surprised but found it reasonable.

But for others on the Wuji Continent, it was unimaginable.

Days ago, Great Zhou experienced an event that stirred the entire Wuji Continent: Great Zhou’s Beiming King broke off his engagement before marriage, abandoning Yun Sheng of Yun Residence.

Though, to say it bluntly, it wasn’t a big deal; being a royal offspring, being unfaithful is not uncommon.

Yet the most explosive part wasn’t there; what was shocking was that people only later learned that Great Zhou’s Beiming King ended the engagement not willingly; he was forced to break it off.

Moreover, this Beiming King was a romantic; in a fit of anger, he actually rebelled.

So openly rebelling over a woman in the history of Wuji Continent, there was only one Ye Beiming.

Hou Qin Emperor must have detected the eight words in the secret report, believing other countries and major forces had also found out.

Even among the common folk, rumors had already begun that the Beiming King of Great Zhou had rebelled.

Who was Great Zhou’s Beiming King? He was the youngest Martial Emperor of Great Zhou, formerly the abolished crown prince of Great Zhou.

Why did he rebel? Not for anything else, only because Emperor Zhou disagreed with his marriage to Yun Sheng, so he simply rebelled.

They say a man may rage for his lover; this time, Ye Beiming was clearly willing to take all of Great Zhou to demonstrate his determination to Yun Sheng.

Dugu Xiu’s heart was like a stormy sea. He never thought, having hoped Hei Linlin would intervene, forcing the Great Zhou Emperor to decree the annulment of the marriage, the Yun Residence would rage, and Yun Sheng would transfer her anger to Ye Beiming, breaking her heart for him.

Who would have known, Ye Beiming would use such a method to give him a brilliant counterattack.

"But, who exactly is this Yun Sheng? Hearing from what’s circulating, she seems to be the legitimate granddaughter who fell from grace of the Martial Saint General Mansion," Hou Qin Emperor, seeing those eight words, was shocked, yet more concerned with how to exploit the internal chaos of Great Zhou for benefit.

Dugu Sheng and the ministers of Hou Qin Court were also curious, who could provoke the long-standing restraint of the abolished crown prince into rebellion? Who was she?

What kind of beauty and grace must that woman possess to captivate Great Zhou’s Ye Beiming so utterly?

Yet, if that woman was simply outstanding in appearance, Beiming King of Great Zhou raging for her would seem quite foolish.

Dugu Sheng thought so, and most other forces on the continent thought so too.

They did not know, if Yun Sheng’s true identity were revealed, her status and power compared to Ye Beiming were no less impressive.

The Yun Residence, though fallen and exiled from Great Zhou, Yun Sheng’s identity has many layers, from the youngest Great National Doctor of Little Ci’en Hall, to Deputy Captain of Sky Hunting Corps, and now the City Lord of Taiyuan City, each identity would shock the continent. 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

Yet Yun Sheng has a low-key nature, always secretive and discreet in her actions, so the outside world’s understanding of her is still stuck at the level of the legitimate eldest granddaughter of Yun Residence, believing she is under the protection of Yun Bahe and Yun Canglang.

One thing that can be confirmed, this time Great Zhou’s rebellion, the chief culprit is the one called Yun Sheng.

Neither Dugu Sheng nor Hou Qin Emperor would have thought, the one who threw Great Zhou into chaos, Yun Sheng, is now staying in Dugu Xiu’s Crown Prince Mansion.

Dugu Xiu listened, feeling very frustrated.

Ye Beiming’s move really messed up all his plans.

Currently, on the continent, many forces are probably inquiring about Yun Sheng, hoping to capture her to threaten Yun Residence and Beiming King.

It seems he must be extremely cautious not to let anyone know that "Donghuang Sheng" is an impostor.

Although his mind was turned upside down, Dugu Xiu’s face remained unchanged, "Father, your son thinks that this is a perfect opportunity."

"Indeed, order strict border defense, monitor every move of Da Zhou garrison. Child, you’ll be aggrieved for a while; your marriage date approaches, and you’ll have to neglect Princess Donghuang. In three days, I will host a banquet in the palace, bring the princess and the women to the palace," Dugu Sheng recalled that today was the day Dugu Xiu received the imperial concubine into the residence.

Looking at Dugu Xiu still in his riding attire, he still hadn’t entered the mansion.

The women of the Crown Prince Mansion, Dugu Sheng, the Emperor, had heard a little about them.

As a father, he wanted to take the chance to meet his prospective daughter-in-law.

"As you command," Dugu Xiu wondered about the state of the Crown Prince Mansion.

Ye Beiming rebelled; this must not reach Yun Sheng’s ears.

Within the Crown Prince Mansion, already considered by the public as a femme fatale is unaware.

Yun Sheng and Donghuang Lingling finally breathed a sigh of relief after chasing away Lady Li.

"Tch, just a Holy Mage, if we could use magic power, she wouldn’t dare be arrogant," Donghuang Lingling was discouraged, feeling like a paper tiger, easy to pierce.

Not only unable to help Yun Sheng, but also dragging her down.

The more she thought, the more regretful she felt; if not for her, Yun Sheng wouldn’t have fallen into Dugu Xiu’s hands.

In this broken courtyard, there was nothing; it truly deserved the term bare.

"No matter," Yun Sheng looked around, "Lingling, let’s tidy up this courtyard a bit. This courtyard is much more useful than you think."

Lingling was unimpressed; what’s so special about a rundown courtyard?

Busy for a while, only by sunset did they finally tidy up the yard enough to be livable.

Dugu Xiu returned to the Crown Prince Mansion, and hearing crying immediately upon entry.

Lady Li had swollen eyes, sobbing, approaching to throw herself into Dugu Xiu’s arms.

Tear-streaked like pear blossoms after rain, her tiny face full of melancholy.

"Crown Prince, you must stand up for Hua Li," Lady Li’s surname was Li Huali, this scene of hers akin to rain-soaked pear blossoms, evoking pity.

"What’s happened, another squabble with Qing Qiang?" Dugu Xiu, troubled over Ye Beiming’s issue, sighed upon seeing Li Huali’s state.

The women in the Crown Prince Mansion were fiercely competitive; especially Li Huali and Qing Qiang, always forming cliques, whichever room he stayed in longer, the other would confront him the next day.
