Chapter 1396: Chapter 32 Trouble! (32)
Qin Feimo was young but lived a life full of dramatic ups and downs, which could be described as spectacular.
As a child, he was the dutiful prince under his mother’s care and was especially favored as the aged emperor’s late-born child. Several princes fiercely competed, but because he was the youngest, his chances of succeeding the throne were the lowest, and they all overlooked him.
Unexpectedly, it was he who eventually ascended to the throne and obtained the kingdom of Great Zhou.
Unfortunately, he was too young and, although he had Ye Han and Qin Yi assisting him, he was ultimately controlled by the aristocratic family. He could not manage state affairs independently, and capable aides were limited around him. Facing the self-proclaimed Emperor, King Kang, and being attacked by Qin Hong among others from multiple directions, his life in those years was so precarious that he hardly dared to sleep.
In the end, he even willingly surrendered the great realm to King Kang!
By the time Qin Yi ascended the throne and became Emperor, his heart was somewhat relieved!
With Qin Yi as Emperor, Elder Cousin Pan’er would have support in the future. Regrettably, the man who eventually brought happiness to the Elder Cousin wasn’t him!
Up to now, as the national power of Great Zhou strengthened day by day, the previously disjointed state of affairs had gradually transformed.
And he could only shrink back in his own fief, living a life that seemed wealthy and honored on the surface but was actually devoid of any freedom. Every time he heard news of his elder cousin, his heart ached.
But he never expected that he would be asked to marry a princess from the enemy nation. What kind of situation was this?
The young eunuch serving beside him gaped in shock with his mouth wide open.
It took a long while to regain his lost tongue, and he hurriedly stepped forward to cover his mouth: "Your Highness, you should keep yourself silent. How could you curse His Majesty? Be careful lest someone hears it, and it wouldn’t just be a punishment of guarding the Imperial Mausoleum, but perhaps staying there permanently."
The last case of conspiracy had caused a big stir, and afterwards, Qin Yi punished Qin Feimo by having him guard the Imperial Mausoleum. Only after more than half a year was he able to return to his fief to "recover from illness" due to the efforts of several Speech Officials. If this matter got out, it was uncertain if he could return!
"Let go!"
Qin Feimo’s face turned crimson with anger: "This king insists on speaking! Does that Qin surnamed dislike the cousin’s affection towards me? Unexpectedly he devised such a sinister tactic to stop me from contacting my cousin. How despicable!"
Thinking of the two letters he recently sent to his cousin that disappeared without a trace, and considering the so-called Princess of Western Xia, Qin Feimo was furiously enraged!
The young eunuch beside him kept silent, but thoughts raced through his mind.
"Your Highness, this is a great opportunity!"
The young eunuch smiled with squinted eyes: "Think about it, Your Highness, based on the current situation, it is impossible for you to escape this marriage. But if you truly marry the Princess of Western Xia and have offspring, you would completely lose the qualification for the throne! Your servant thinks, maybe, this is the outcome that person wants." He gestured towards the sky.
"Am I a pig, too foolish to know even this?"
Qin Feimo glared at him.
Even in his rage, he understood the implications behind the action.
Because he knew this, he wanted to curse them out. After the rant, he felt better, but after a while, Qin Feimo gradually calmed down and realized he had been too impulsive earlier. He had even forgotten that there were many spies hidden in the Prince’s Mansion.
He didn’t know how that person would deal with him upon learning this matter.
"Forget it, let him do as he pleases!"
Qin Feimo completely abandoned restraint. After pondering for a moment, he changed his mind and turned back to order his subordinate: "Go, prepare pen and ink!"
He wrote a letter to Su Pan’er. He just couldn’t believe that the elder cousin would be so heartless as not to see him even when he was getting married.
When the letter reached Su Pan’er, she was indeed troubled for quite some time.
Her vision conjured the image of Qin Feimo making vows to her in the Imperial Garden back when he was still a prince!
"What are you staring so intently at?"
Qin Yi had just come back from playing with the twins when he saw her captivated by this beautiful scene.
Su Pan’er, with one hand upholding her cheek, had a distracted look in her eyes as if staring at a point in mid-air, lost in thought.
"I’m thinking about Fei’er’s marriage."
Su Pan’er sighed and casually handed a letter to Qin Yi, "Do you remember when I first met him? Ye Han was carrying him on his back, fleeing for their lives. Despite his tender age, he neither cried nor made a fuss, instead, he was so quiet and adorable. Afterwards, he came to our sides and saved us numerous times..."
Qin Yi briefly scanned the letter and then casually placed it on the table. He sat next to Su Pan’er and took her hand.
"This is also the tragedy of being born into the Imperial Family. I hope such tragedy won’t befall our children."
"Mm!"
Su Pan’er nodded intensely, looked up at him, and hesitated to speak.
"Are you about to mention Fei’er’s marriage?"
Qin Yi actually laughed, "It’s not that I forcefully want to add people to his rear courtyard. It’s just that there aren’t many eligible feudal lords presently; it’s either him or King Ye. Ye Han refuses to marry, and I have no intention of keeping the Princess of Western Xia in the palace. Surely you wouldn’t want me to marry the Princess of Western Xia to a court minister, right?"
Su Pan’er understood all these reasons, yet having just received a letter from Qin Feimo, she felt she must at least try to mediate the situation.
"I understand."
After a moment of thought, Su Pan’er replied to Qin Feimo’s letter, explaining the situation and emphasizing the lack of eligible candidates.
She quickly sent the ball back into Qin Feimo’s court.
On the day Qin Feimo and the Princess of Western Xia got married, Su Pan’er personally went to support the occasion. Partly to meet Qin Feimo and partly to see what this Princess of Western Xia looked like.
Her arrival brought tears to Qin Feimo’s eyes!
"Elder Cousin..."
He knelt before Su Pan’er, choking up with emotion, unable to speak.
Seeing him like this, Su Pan’er couldn’t help but feel moved, "Getting married is a joyous occasion, why are you crying? Get up, quickly!" She then ordered someone to help him up.
The Qin Feimo before her eyes had matured significantly since their last meeting. His whole presence was domineering, exuding a sense of danger. The once youthful boy had fully grown into a tall and robust young man. Physically, he was even comparable to Qin Yi.
Qin Feimo repeatedly wiped his tears, his face full of regret, "Elder Cousin, it was all my fault in the past. I lost my senses, I..."
"Let’s leave the past behind! We should look forward, sweetheart!"
Su Pan’er comforted him with these words.
She knew, in her heart, that Qin Yi sparing Qin Feimo’s life was already an exception. As for anything else, it was better not to hold out hope.
Yet, Qin Feimo kept weeping profusely in front of her, tears and snot running down his face, making it difficult for Su Pan’er to handle the situation. Fortunately, at that moment, Ye Han arrived!
With Ye Han’s arrival, Su Pan’er found the perfect excuse to excuse herself. Perhaps also feeling wary, Qin Feimo didn’t dare to cling any further.
Su Pan’er sat for a brief moment before fleeing the scene. Ye Han promptly followed her.
