The Whole Dynasty Spoils the Tyrant's Beloved Youngest Daughter-Chapter 496 - 493: Long Hair Tied to His Heart: Yu Wei Side Story (19)

Chapter 496: Chapter 493: Long Hair Tied to His Heart: Yu Wei Side Story (19)

Song Wei almost choked on her own saliva, what was this girl asking? She coughed twice and mumbled, "...which one?"

Hua Hua still smiled, "That one! Miss, don’t pretend you don’t understand."

"......" Song Wei felt embarrassed, and even if there was, she wouldn’t admit it, so she said, "No."

Hua Hua continued to pursue Song Wei, "But Miss, why do your lips look a bit swollen? And there’s a cut at the corner of your mouth? Even the lipstick is gone, what’s going on?"

Hua Hua recalled, "When I left earlier, Miss’s lips weren’t like this."

Song Wei: "......"

When did this girl get so observant?

Hua Hua: "Come on, Miss, just tell me the truth, what happened?"

Why still ask?

Can’t she see it’s embarrassing to say?

Urged by Hua Hua, Song Wei got a bit angry. She reached out and pinched Hua Hua’s chubby face, saying, "You little brat, you really don’t know how to give up, do you have to get to the bottom of this?"

Hua Hua, with her face pinched, nodded with a silly smile. However, her laughter sounded strange, somewhat haunting.

...

The family feast Madam Song mentioned came just like that.

Although Madam Song invited all the relatives and friends under the guise of a simple family feast to make up for not having Song Wei’s wedding banquet previously.

But everyone heard that the Song Family did this to introduce the nobleman who oust Mr. Li, rose to glory, and will soon be Song Wei’s future husband.

It’s said that this nobleman is extraordinary!

He has status, wealth, and is the kind of man any woman would want to marry after hearing about him.

On the way to the feast, relatives and friends were all gossiping.

"Apparently, the one interested in Song Wei is a member of the Imperial Family, a Prince!"

Someone who wasn’t aware of the situation blurted out, "A Prince? Haha, ever since Bei Xia’s war with East Chu, Bei Xia almost lost everything, Princes aren’t rare anymore."

Just after stepping off the carriage, someone immediately refuted, "What do you know? He’s not Bei Xia’s Prince; he’s a Prince from East Chu."

"A Prince from East Chu?"

Not long ago, in that war, East Chu was the victor. They not only won but also forced Bei Xia to cede land and pay compensation, even Marshal Fei, a dignified man, was sent for marriage alliance...

East Chu is like a carp leaping over the dragon gate; it became famous in one battle!

The Princes of East Chu have also increased their status several times over.

"But, as it is, the remaining Princes of East Chu are a bunch of wastrels; otherwise, they wouldn’t have let a Princess become the Crown Prince, go to the battlefield, and fight alongside men."

"Is this Prince from East Chu really reliable?"

The doubts emerged again.

It seemed like they were trying to pick a fight, but actually, their words weren’t wrong. 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

After all, the remaining Princes of East Chu are known as wastrels even in neighboring countries, although East Chu has won a great victory and increased their worth several times over, people still don’t trust them.

But then, someone in the know began to speak.

"The one who’s interested in Miss Song, she’s not a wastrel; he is the Crown Prince’s twin brother, the Seventeenth Prince, they’re real brothers, break a bone and it’s still connected."

"And I hear that this Seventeenth Prince is young and promising, completely different from his wastrel brothers."

"It’s just that he ruined half of his face, thus severing his ties with the throne. Otherwise, East Chu’s Crown Prince wouldn’t necessarily be that Princess."

Such matters shouldn’t be discussed lightly!

Even a slight mistake could be fatal.

Many people at the entrance were stunned to hear this, and some muttered something about seeing nothing inappropriate and hurried into the Song Mansion without lingering.

"Is it true?" Someone found it hard to believe it was true.

"It’s true, I’m a relative of Madam Song’s family, I know this stuff the most clearly, am I tricking you?"

Now, no one doubted anymore, and no one casually made comments or spoke nonsense.

Since they were already at the entrance of Song Mansion, they dared not linger and hurried inside.

The nobility of the Seventeenth Prince goes without saying; everyone understood by now.

Everyone was afraid of saying the wrong thing, offending people, inadvertently bringing trouble upon themselves, so they spoke and acted with caution.

...

With the arrival of relatives and friends, the family feast began.

All the Song Family members made an appearance, Mr. Song, Madam Song, the three young ladies of the Song Family, and the young master who was always at school and rarely seen...

The whole Song Family was present, and they had all dressed up on purpose, each wearing silk and satin, adorned with precious jewelry, looking dazzling.

However, everyone’s attention wasn’t on the Song Family, everyone wanted to see the nobleman, to witness the presence of the Seventeenth Prince.

Where was the Seventeenth Prince?

At the entrance, Mr. Song and Madam Song were welcoming guests, but the young ladies of the Song Family were nowhere to be seen.

In the courtyard, several ladies gathered chatting, and only the eldest and second young ladies of the Song Family were seen, yet the third young lady and the Seventeenth Prince were missing.

Everyone widened their eyes searching around, and finally found them in the flower hall.

Everyone’s gaze settled on the man standing beside Song Wei, who was almost a head taller than her, wearing a half silver-white mask and a narrow-sleeved black robe, exuding an imposing aura without anger.

The man said nothing, just stood beside Song Wei, watching her greet the guests.

Occasionally, Song Wei introduced some of her genuinely caring relatives to him, and he exchanged polite greetings with those introduced.

He spoke eloquently and was remarkably poised, truly worthy of being the Seventeenth Prince.

"If Xiao Wei marries such a man, her future is bright!"

"Isn’t it? If she could give the Seventeenth Prince a child or two, she’d lead a life of wealth and glory!"

Song Wanwan listened to these voices, feeling jealously resentful, she scoffed in her heart, saying, "Hmph, all of you don’t rush to be happy for Song Wei, because the one to marry the Seventeenth Prince, might not necessarily be Song Wei, what if it’s me? Just wait and see, after today, I’ll be the Seventeenth Prince’s person."
