Becoming the Villainess: I Dominate the Cultivation Realm with My Wok!-Chapter 215
"Concubine?" The Second Prince squinted his eyes.
Yan Luan pouted and said to the Second Prince with grievances, "Oh dear, my status is too lowly. Second Prince, you shouldn’t have to conflict with the second master of the Chu Family because of me. It’s not worth it!"
Chu Yue, upon hearing this, smiled as if to say, "I knew it."
The Second Prince, already insignificant among the princes, wouldn’t cause trouble with my Chu Family over a mere concubine, would he?
You must know that in the eyes of the princes, my Chu Family is like a coveted prize.
Heh, but the fact that the Second Prince snuck into my mansion disguised as a servant and let his concubine injure me today can be used by the Sixth Prince.
Even though the Second Prince isn’t much, his close connection with Huo Lian, who represents the Huo Family, ensures that with the Huo Family, there’s no shortage of resources for maneuvering.
Yet my foolish fourth brother, I don’t know what he was thinking, even caught Huo Lian’s servant. Luckily, they don’t know that the Sixth Prince is supporting our Chu Family; otherwise, they would have sabotaged the Sixth Prince’s plans.
The Second Prince looked at Chu Yue, who wore a face that screamed "I’m the smartest," and found it amusing. Isn’t this plan almost too obvious?
"It’s said that a man can become infuriated for a beauty. Today, I insist on seeking justice for you. Since the second master of the Chu Family touched her hand with his right hand, then cut it off!" The Second Prince said casually.
Chu Yue was astounded by these words. Cut off his hand? For a concubine? Wasn’t the Second Prince afraid of angering the Chu Family?!
"Second Prince, your joke is a bit terrifying. I will apologize to her and not pursue the matter of her injuring me. Shall we leave it at that?" Chu Yue, still possessing some of the pride of being part of the Chu Family, replied.
Primarily because the Second Prince had never been significant and didn’t hold a particularly high status among the princes, Chu Yue relied on the Sixth Prince backing him, feeling somewhat disdainful of the Second Prince. Furthermore, it’s just concerning a concubine. Even if this matter reached the Emperor, he would have something to say about it.
The Second Prince noticed a bit of arrogance in Chu Yue and couldn’t help but laugh. He couldn’t understand where Chu Yue’s confidence came from. Even at the peak of the Chu Family’s power, the old master of the Chu Family could, at best, boast about it. Among Chu Yue’s generation, the only one who could uphold the family’s reputation was the third master of the Chu Family. Chu Yue neither held a position nor had competence, only the status of being part of the Chu Family. Where did this self-confidence originate?
Is it merely because he is a member of the Chu Family that he can be so confident?
The Second Prince, as the Emperor’s son, admitted that he couldn’t be so confident.
"Apologize? Second Prince, I can accept that," Yan Luan suddenly said with a sweet smile.
Chu Yue felt slightly proud. See, this kind of woman is clever, understanding the severity of situations, solving her husband’s worries. It’s just a pity she’s the Second Prince’s woman.
Even now, Chu Yue surprisingly harbored still some lingering thoughts about Yan Luan.
The Second Prince saw Yan Luan’s smile and instinctively swallowed, almost withdrawing his neck. Fortunately, the smile wasn’t directed at him.
"Since my beloved consort has her own plans, let’s follow her wishes," the Second Prince said weakly.
Chu Yue was bewildered upon hearing this. Consort? Could this beauty actually be a Prince Consort? Looking at her figure, she did not seem suitable as a Prince Consort, but such a beauty likely had some tricks up her sleeve. It seemed that even the Second Prince found it hard to resist her charms.
