Chapter 3: Oh My God!

The official raised his head and his gaze paused on the hands of the Prince of Lang and Yu Niaoniao. He thought to himself that the rumors were indeed not groundless. Look at these two. They could not wait to get intimate in the cell. Their relationship was really strong! 7

The official plastered a smile on his face and said jubilantly.

“When the emperor heard about the matter between His Highness and the eldest daughter of the Assistant Minister of Revenue, he specially issued a decree to betrothe the two of you. Congratulations, Your Highness! Congratulations, Miss Yu!”

Xiao Juan looked at Yu Niaoniao again and asked word by word.

“Rumors stop with wise men? Only fools are misled by rumors? Eh?” 4

Yu Niaoniao felt as if she had been struck by lightning. Her mind went blank.

Oh my old swan!!

‘You can’t fool people like that!’

She couldn’t take it anymore. Her vision darkened and she fell forward!

At the last moment, she heard the official gasp. freewebnove(l).com

“Miss Yu actually fainted from joy!” 9

...

When she woke up, she found herself lying on a familiar bed.

Looking around, she confirmed that this was her boudoir.

She let out a long breath.

“So I was dreaming!”

“What dream?” Dang Gui asked curiously as she walked over with the medicine.

Yu Wenxian said in an amused tone, “I dreamed of Duke Lang just now and even dreamed that the emperor gave us a marriage. Don’t you think it was scary?” 6

With that, she realized that Angelica’s expression had become unreadable. 4

Dang Gui could not help but extinguish her last hope. 3

“It’s not a dream.”

The smile on Yu Niaoniao’s face gradually froze.

Dang Gui continued, “The emperor has indeed given you and Duke Lang a marriage. The imperial edict has already been sent to our Yu Residence. You two will be married in a month.”

Yu Niaoniao was stunned for a full minute.

She lay back woodenly, clasped her hands to her bosom, and closed her eyes peacefully.

Dang Gui was puzzled. “What are you doing?” 1

Yu Niaoniao curled up. “Don’t talk to me. Please let me leave this world in peace.” 3

Dang Gui was speechless. She reached out and pulled Yu Niaoniao up from the bed.

“Do you think you’ll have peace and quiet after you’re dead, my lady? Do you know what they say about you out there now?”

Yu covered his ears. “I don’t want to hear it.”

Dang Gui spoke quickly like a machine gun.

“Those people said that you sneaked out of the house in the middle of the night to have a secret meeting with the Duke of Lang. They also said that you fainted in the Duke of Lang’s arms because you were happy to receive the emperor’s blessing.”

Yu Wenxian keenly grasped the point and lowered her hands. 1

“I fainted in the arms of the Duke of Lang?”

Dang Gui stated the truth very objectively, “At that time, you threw yourself at Duke Lang. His hand was still being pulled by you, so he couldn’t dodge even if he wanted to.”

Yu Niaoniao imagined the scene.

The more she thought about it, the more she wanted to die.

She reached for the covers and pulled them over her face, letting out a wail of pain. (f)reewebnovel

“I really can’t clear my name this time even if I jump into the Yellow River !”

Dang Gui pulled off her blanket and said coldly.

“Although I don’t know what the Yellow River is, you should rink the medicine before you jump in.” 4

Yu Niaoniao looked at her with a hopeless expression.

“Why do I have to take medicine when I’m already in such a miserable state?”

Dang Gui brought the medicine bowl to her mouth. “You fainted from anger last night. The doctor specially prescribed this medicine for you. He said that it can calm your mind. I added some brown sugar in it. It shouldn’t be bitter. Drink it while it’s hot.”

Yu Niaoniao took a small sip. It was indeed not bitter.

Only then did she finish the medicine in her bowl.

Dang Gui recalled what happened last night and could not suppress the curiosity in her heart. She revealed the standard expression of a spectator and asked curiously.

“When did you start having those thoughts about the Prince of Lang, my lady?” 1

As Miss’s personal maidservant, she followed Miss every day and was completely unaware of this matter.
