Wild Princess: Marrying an Ugly Prince Chapter 156 Everyone Was an Excellent Actor!

Jun Yeyan didn't bother to lower himself to the same level of Jun Wuhen.

But he already guessed that there must be something about him happened in this morning court.

“Officials, today I have something to announce.” Jun Wuhen glanced at Jun Yeyan coldly.

All the officials discussed in low voices when they heard Jun Wuhen's words. They all didn't put forward their opinions to the Emperor.

“I have received an invitation from Nanyue. Prince Peerless will ascend to the throne in the early autumn. Chengxi is supposed to appoint ambassador to congratulate. I cannot decide whom I should appoint.” Jun Wuhen was very satisfied with the atmosphere of the court, and continued talking.

Some officials had been informed by Bai Qiwei in advance, so they were not surprised at all. They all just praised Prince Peerless' smartness and decisiveness.

He was about to ascend the throne in such a short period of time.

How wonderful it would be if Chengxi had such talent like Prince Peerless!

Jun Wuhen didn't miss different facial expressions of each official. He curled his lips which showed his interest in the reactions of the officials. But his peripheral vision was on Jun Yeyan all the time.

Jun Yeyan had learned about this in advance. So he was not surprised by anything unusual. He was calm and waited patiently for Jun Wuhen speaking out his aim.

“This is really a great event worth of celebration. In my opinion, Chengxi should appoint someone with an important position as ambassador to show our sincerity. At present situation, there are three kingdoms in confrontation. A good relationship with Nanyue is the best of all.” Bai Qiwei saluted politely and expressed his idea.

Bai Qiwei was good at weighing up words and reading facial expressions. When other officials didn't talk, the best way to break the ice was he put forward his opinion as the first one.

Jun Wuhen seemed to ponder over Bai Qiwei's words.

Some of the officials agreed with Bai Qiwei. They were all astute fellows. They could weigh the pros and cons.

“Your Majesty, I agree with Prime Minister Bai. Nanyue is a large kingdom. We should show genuine sincere. A good relationship between Chengxi and Nanyue is good to us.” Another official stepped out and agreed with Bai Qiwei.

Jun Wuhen narrowed his eyes to pretend to be worried, “Then who should be appointed as the ambassador? Do you have any idea?”

There was a moment of silence.

“Your Majesty, I have a recommendation.” Bai Qiwei said.

“Prime Minister Bai, talk about your opinion.” Jun Yeyan commanded.

“In my opinion, the ambassador should hold important position and have high social status. The Prince Peerless is always a smart person. If we don't handle this appropriately, it will sabotage our relationship with Nanyue. So I believe the Fifth Prince and the Princess are the best candidates.” Bai Qiwei said seriously and gave Jun Yeyan a glance.

The court fell into silence with Bai Qiwei's words. Nobody expected Bai Qiwei recommend Jun Yeyan, but they all thought Bai Qiwei's words made sense.

Jun Yeyan sure held important position and had high social status in Chengxi. Although he didn't have a good reputation, he still was the little brother the Emperor loved most.

Bai Aoxue, who married Jun Yeyan, was the eldest daughter of the prime minister, and the nephew of the Great General Weiyuan. Jun Yeyan and Bai Aoxue as the ambassadors was the best choice undoubtedly.

Jun Wuhen pretended distressed, “Good idea. But my little brother hasn't never travelled long in eight years. I will worry about him to send him so far away. And he's grown up with me since he was very young, I would not like him to be away for so long.”

All the officials were moved by the brotherhood between Jun Yeyan and Jun Wuhen, but they all missed the shrew light in Jun Wuhen's eyes, let alone the sarcasm smiles on Jun Yeyan's face.

In the court, everyone had his own thought.

Jun Yeyan stepped out slowly and said, “I would like to visit Nanyue on behalf of Chengxi. I believe this is a good opportunity to experience the world. So please appoint me to accomplish the task.”

Everyone didn't expect Jun Yeyan would agree to go to Nanyue. They thought it was reasonable whether Jun Yeyan agree or disagree to go to Nanyue.

Jun Wuhen lifted his eyebrows in surprise. He thought he would need to persuade Jun Yeyan together with Bai Qiwei. Now Jun Yeyan agreed without any hesitation so there was no need to persuade. What on earth was in Jun Yeyan's mind? Jun Wuhen had no idea.

“Do you know that the journey is long and it will be very dangerous on the way? Do you still want to go?” Jun Wuhen pretended to persuade Jun Yeyan not to go.

“Elder brother, please don't worry. I would like to visit Nanyue on behalf of Chengxi. I believe I can represent Chengxi well and the Prince Peerless will welcome me.” Jun Yeyan pretended to be naïve.

In Jun Yeyan's heart, he laughed coldly, I can be an excellent actor as well. And I can be even better than you in acting!

Jun Wuhen was confused. Apparently, he didn't expect Jun Yeyan would act like this.

Jun Wuhen glanced at Bai Qiwei, hoping he would say something. So they could carry out their plot as planned.

“Emperor, in my opinion, appointing Fifth Prince to visit Nanyue is the best choice. This visiting experience will sure be unforgettable to the Fifth Prince.” Bai Qiwei stepped out and said positively.

Bai Qiwei's followers all agreed with him.

Jun Wuhen had achieved his aim and he was about to say something when he heard an old voice.

“Emperor, I have something to beg you.”

Everyone turned to the direction of the voice.

“Marquis Deyuan, what do you beg for? Go ahead.” Jun Wuhen said slowly.

Jun Yeyan curled his eyebrows, waiting for Du Mo, Marquis Deyuan to talk.

“My son has always been mischievous. Visiting Nanyue may be a good chance to harden him. I hope he becomes serious and makes contribution to Chengxi. So I beg you to allow my son be a member of the delegation to Nanyue.” Marquis Deyuan said politely.

He and Bai Qiwei had discussed this issue in advance. They thought there might be something unpredictable happened in the court. So they prepared a backup plan.

So there were Marquis Deyuan's high-sounding words.

Jun Wuhen faked the appreciation and nodded, “You are very considerate, Marquis Deyuan. It certainly is OK to take the Heir Du to visit Nanyue. But too many people were not good for a long journey. What do you think, little brother?”

Jun Wuhen threw the hot potato to Jun Yeyan.

Jun Yeyan was calm and he was clear about Jun Wuhen's plot.

“I think it is good to have one more person on the delegation. This visiting can make talents for Chengxi. I am very glad to have the Heir Du with me.” Jun Yeyan said in calm.

The officials in the court were all surprised to hear Jun Yeyan said so. But it was good that the Fifth Prince treated this visiting so seriously, at least he would not cause shame to the Empire.

Jun Wuhen stared at Jun Yeyan gloomily. Apparently, he didn't expect Jun Yeyan agree to take Heir Du to Nanyue.

“Well…that will be best! I appreciate for you.” Jun Wuhen smiled lightly to cover his unhappiness.

Bai Qiwei agreed, “Right…Chengxi is very lucky to have the Fifth Prince.”

Some officials who were good at analyzing the situation all expressed their agreement.

Jun Yeyan was not surprised by the fence-sitters. He just wanted to leave the court.

“If there is nothing else, then you are dismissed.” Jun Wuhen had achieved his aim and would not like to waste time in court.

Jun Yeyan was summoned to the imperial study by Jun Wuhen. They had a talk and Jun Wuhen explained to Jun Yeyan that he had really given much thought to the matter. Jun Yeyan just listened in calm.

At last, Jun Wuhen felt boring of Jun Yeyan's calmness. So he just let Jun Yeyan go after setting up the date of setting off to Nanyue.

Jun Yeyan first went to the mansion after he got out of the imperial study. When he learned that Bai Aoxue had gone to the prime minister's mansion, he went to the prime minister's mansion alone.

When he came to the mansion, he overheard the conversation between Bai Qiwei and Bai Aoxue. He would have rushed in and killed Bai Qiwei if he didn't know that Bai Aoxue didn't want him to get into issues between her and her father.

When he was sure that Bai Qiwei had left and saw Bai Aoxue get out of the mansion, he showed himself.

“What are you doing here?” Bai Aoxue was a little bit surprised when she saw the angry Jun Yeyan.

Jun Yeyan looked at Bai Aoxue's cold and indifferent face, and concerned about her to be used by Bai Qiwei.

Then rage took control of his heart! He burst into rage because Bai Qiwei was so shameless, and Jun Wuhen was much more shameless.

Jun Wuhen was longing for his lady! Right now, Jun Yeyan just wanted to cut Jun Wuhen into pieces.

“I couldn't find you in mansion. So I came over to check out on you.” Jun Yeyan tried his best to press his anger in heart, and his eyes stared at Bai Aoxue without a blink.

Bai Aoxue was embarrassed by Jun Yeyan's staring, but she still pretended to be calm, “How was it in the palace? What does Jun Wuhen want to do?”

Jun Yeyan thought Bai Aoxue was much more beautiful than the one he met for the first time. Back then, Bai Aoxue was beautiful though, but without much human emotions which estranged her from everyone else.

Now Bai Aoxue set Jun Yeyan's mind at easy, because Jun Yeyan knew that Bai Aoxue belonged to him.

Seeing that Jun Yeyan didn't reply to her, Bai Aoxue was sure something bad had happened.

“What? Is there a problem?” Bai Aoxue asked again.

Jun Yeyan was called back to reality by Bai Aoxue. He would never admit that he was dumb by looking at Bai Aoxue.

“No. Qi Lian'ge will ascend to the throne. Chengxi needs to appoint ambassadors to Nanyue. Bai Qiwei and Jun Wuhen plan to appoint us to visit Nanyue. This means Jun Wuhen cannot wait to deal with me!” Thinking of Jun Wuhen, Jun Yeyan showed a willing of killing.

Bai Aoxue felt funny when she thought of Bai Qiwei's words.

“It seems that they will kill us on the way. Well…kill you on the way. I am still useful for them!” Bai Aoxue laughed and didn't agree that she was useful.

Jun Yeyan's eyes turned to a dark color like amber, which gave out brilliant sparkling and they were unbelievably charming.

“They will kill us on the way back. They also arranged an informer to spy on us. It seems that Jun Wuhen has planned everything.” Jun Yeyan sneered coldly.

Bai Aoxue lifted her eyebrows and asked, “Who is the informer?”
