On Our Wedding Night, I Discovered the Crown Prince's Hidden Illness-Chapter 190: Water Floods the Dragon Temple
Chapter 190 -190: Water Floods the Dragon Temple
Lai Yuxing and Leng Yusheng each grabbed a clamoring servant by the arm. Just as they were about to speak, one of the servants shouted, “What’s going on? What’s with all the pulling and dragging in the middle of the street? Have you no decency?”
Miao Zhu spoke up and rolled up her sleeves, ready to fight.
Xiaoshan mimicked her, rolling up his sleeves as well.
Leng Yuqing narrowed his eyes and continued to stare intently at Leng Yu Yan’s face, suddenly demanding, “Why have you disguised yourself in such a manner?”
Hearing this, Leng Yu Yan was at a loss for words.
What did her cross-dressing have to do with this strange man in front of her?
Lai Yuxing and Leng Yusheng had never believed there was someone who resembled their sister in this world and questioned fiercely, “Are you wearing a human skin mask on your face?”
“Yes, wearing a human skin mask to impersonate our sister!” they accused.
Leng Yu Yan scoffed, “Who would want to impersonate your sister?”
Moreover, she hadn’t worn a human skin mask for half a month now; the face she wore was her own.
As soon as she said this, she immediately remembered Li Yuyue had once mentioned how much she resembled his sister.
Soon after, she asked, “Do you happen to know Li Yuyue?”
On hearing this, the Leng brothers were shocked that this person even knew their older brother’s name.
It was clear that this was a premeditated fraud, intending to swindle money from the Prince Zhenbei Mansion.
No matter how much he resembled Mian’er with a human skin mask, such a swindler must not be brought before their mother.
Lai Yuxing pointed at his face and angrily advised, “You such a swindler should surrender yourself to the government for a chance of a lighter sentence. Otherwise, don’t blame us for being rude!”
Leng Yu Yan laughed lightly, “A swindler?”
Seeing his beautiful, pleasant laughter, the Leng brothers were even more convinced that the person before them was a fraudster.
With his attire, it was hard to tell whether this person was male or female. However, his voice was indeed pleasant, even sweeter than their sister’s.
But these facts did not change the reality that the person before them was a swindler!
Mian’er had passed away, and they could not tolerate anyone exploiting her looks to gain the trust of Prince Zhenbei Mansion.
Although their family had always been searching for a girl who resembled Mian’er to alleviate their mother’s illness, it had to be someone who truly resembled her, not someone resorting to tricks.
Moreover, over the past three years, countless people had come faking identities with human skin masks to commit fraud.
Fortunately, they had seen through all those tricks. If they had brought such people before their mother and she discovered the deceit, they dared not imagine the impact on her.
At this moment, the Leng brothers somewhat admired how well this person’s human skin mask was made but were furious that someone was attempting the impersonation again.
Yet, they had to admit that this person indeed looked remarkably like Mian’er.
Seeing how sternly their three sons were interrogating the person, Wei Liang understood their motivation.
Yet the person before him truly resembled the Commandery Princess. Taking a step forward with tears streaming down his face, he asked, “Do you still recognize me?”
Leng Yu Yan shook her head and walked straight past them.
Sensing their hostility like they were on edge, she suddenly lost any desire to go to Prince Zhenbei Mansion.
Brother Lai was a good man, but his brothers might not be. They were questioning her appearance and motives; what if she were misunderstood as scheming for wealth or intending harm when checking the Princess Zhenbei’s pulse?
Suddenly, Leng Yuqing aimed a strike straight for his face, intending to rip off the human skin mask to see his true face.

Leng Yu Yan’s eyes narrowed slightly, her hands clasped behind her back as she swiftly moved backward.
Seeing their second brother make a move, Lai Yuxing and Leng Yusheng joined in.
After a few exchanges, Leng Yu Yan felt she was not their match, as her skills had not fully recovered.
With this in mind, her bare hand twirled and she pulled three silver needles from her sleeve, swiftly throwing them and hitting each of the three brothers on the nerves in their wrists.
The three brothers finally stopped.
Leng Yu Yan, taking Miao Zhu and Xiaoshan with her, didn’t bother to take back the silver needle and left.
The three Leng brothers were both angry and annoyed because the trickster they encountered this time was exceptionally skillful. What was even more depressing was that even after they pulled out the needle, their wrists were still numb and painful.
Having no choice, they returned to Prince Zhenbei Mansion.
Seeing the downcast look of his three younger brothers returning, Li Yuyue asked with a smile, “Who has provoked you guys?”
Given the status of Prince Zhenbei Mansion in Beilan City, naturally no one dared to bully them, but at this moment, that didn’t seem to be the case.
This was really rare!
Wei Liang said, “Princely Heir, this is what happened, I was on the road…”
After hearing Wei Liang’s brief narrative, Li Yuyue’s expression darkened, and he sternly rebuked, “The three of you are simply causing trouble!”
If he guessed correctly, it was Leng Yu Yan who had come.
His men were searching for her elsewhere, but led astray, as she had already come to Beilan City. It was no wonder he hadn’t received any news from the people he had dispatched.
Although he didn’t know why she used needles, weapons vary, and flying needles are convenient to carry; there wasn’t much worth delving into. The problem now was that he needed to find her quickly.
“Brother, we did it for mother’s sake,” Lai Yuxing said.
Li Yuyue spread his hands, “Give me the silver needles.”
The three obediently placed the silver needles into Li Yuyue’s hands, one of them defending, “Brother, she must have been wearing a Human Skin Mask.”
Li Yuyue snorted coldly, “Where are there so many Human Skin Masks? Her face is her own!”
At this moment, a rare frost appeared on big brother’s face, which left them momentarily unsure of how to respond.
“Wei Liang, lead the way, I must see her immediately!” Li Yuyue strode forward decisively, exuding the aura that he absolutely had to bring the person back to Prince Zhenbei Mansion.
Wei Liang jogged to catch up.
That left Leng Yuqing and the other two standing there in disarray.
Led by Wei Liang, Li Yuyue reached the same street, but the master and servants were nowhere to be seen.
Wei Liang said, “Princely Heir, the person has two servants with him, one of whom has a full head of white hair, so he should be easy to spot.”
The two headed towards the inn, and soon, Li Yuyue finally saw her.
“Yu Yan, sister!”
The familiar call made Leng Yu Yan turn her head.
At the same time, this call thrilled Wei Liang.
What did it mean to be called ‘sister’ by the Princely Heir?
Wei Liang thought, he believed this young gentleman was Princess Mian’er, although the princess did not recognize him and the three young masters even said she was a trickster, he never thought so.
This call also shocked Xiaoshan immensely.
For the past half-month, he always thought that his life-saving benefactor, his master, was a very beautiful young gentleman.
How foolish he was, with such an absolutely beautiful appearance, how could she be a man?
“Leng Big Brother,” Leng Yu Yan smiled and walked swiftly towards Li Yuyue.
Watching the girl in front of him dressed in men’s clothing, Li Yuyue smiled indulgently, “Have you gotten used to wearing men’s clothes in Imperial College?”
“Not really, it’s just more convenient to travel dressed as a man.”
“Good!” Li Yuyue asked cheerfully, “Did you bring any women’s clothes?”
Leng Yu Yan smiled and shook her head, “Actually, I didn’t.”
“No matter,” Li Yuyue turned to instruct Wei Liang, “Hurry and report to the Prince, tell him Yu Yan, my sister, is right here by my side.”
First, he had to take her shopping for some women’s clothing. It would be more appropriate for her to meet the Father King and mother dressed as a woman.
