Peaceful Farm Life-Chapter 1865 - 1866: I Won’t Ruin You
Feng Feiyan wanted to say she didn’t truly want to marry any man; she only wanted to marry him. But before she could speak, she heard Su Yi Jing say, "I don’t know how many men you need to satisfy you, but I do know that once I become your concubine, while I torment you, I’ll also do my best to ’satisfy’ you."
The more he spoke, the more ironic his words became.
At this moment, Su Yi Jing was truly angry, and truly regretful. His second uncle had initially sent him to Wufeng to attend her wedding. If he hadn’t handed it over to An Yiqing and had gone himself, he would have ruined her wedding thoroughly. How could he have allowed her to marry three men at once!
Feng Feiyan felt humiliated, thinking she had kept her body like jade for him, yet he came to humiliate her like this.
She didn’t want to say anything anymore, nor did she want to explain anything. If he wanted to torment her, let him torment her.
She turned pale but spoke extremely calmly, "You’ve threatened me so much that I won’t let the nation perish and the family be destroyed. So you’ll marry me with the identity of a farmer’s son."
Feng Feiyan didn’t agree to let him be a concubine, he was angry. Now Feng Feiyan agreed, he was even angrier.
Su Yi Jing was extremely angry, though he couldn’t figure out why, he already gritted his teeth and said, "Emperor, I will definitely ’serve’ you well then."
The words ’serve,’ said with such deep meaning and sarcasm.
Feng Feiyan was heartbroken, almost fainting, but she tried hard to keep herself calm.
He said he wanted to stay by her side as a concubine to torment her, but in reality, he was tormenting her right now.
"You don’t need to send people to welcome for the wedding," Su Yi Jing calmed his anger before continuing, "I will go to Wufeng myself, to the capital, to find you. Give me a token to freely enter and exit Wufeng."
Feng Feiyan numbly took down a token from her waist and handed it to Su Yi Jing.
Su Yi Jing, while securing the token, said without a hint of emotion, "Remember, the one marrying you is the farmer’s son Xiao Yijing, but the Prince of Xiyun, Su Yi Jing will still be the Prince of Xiyun."
Feng Feiyan nodded numbly.
"I will first visit my father and mother, then go to Wufeng." After saying this, Su Yi Jing turned and walked away.
Feng Feiyan remained numb.
Shortly after Su Yi Jing left, Shen Feifan returned. As soon as he returned, Shen Feifan reported the situation he had heard.
"Emperor, this Prince of Xiyun was made general at thirteen because he eradicated almost all of the bandits within Xiyun’s borders. His achievement in suppressing the bandits made Xiyun more peaceful and earned him high prestige among the people of Xiyun. If nothing unexpected happens, once the King of Xiyun dies, given the Crown Prince’s achievements, the title he inherits shouldn’t be downgraded; he will be the next King of Xiyun."
The title of Paralleled King is granted, not inherited. If Su Yi Jing didn’t have enough achievements, he wouldn’t be able to inherit Xiao Changyi’s title of Paralleled King; it would be downgraded one level, titled as Prince. But now, Su Yi Jing’s contributions to Xiyun are substantial. Really, if nothing unexpected happens, Su Yi Jing will be the next Paralleled King of Xiyun — the King of Xiyun.
"Understood, you may leave now." Feng Feiyan was no longer numb. She closed her eyes and let Shen Feifan withdraw.
After Shen Feifan left the room, Feng Feiyan silently said to herself, "Yi Jing, I won’t ruin you. Quickly torment me, vent your anger, relieve your hatred, then return to Xiyun and be the good Prince of Xiyun that you are."
...
Two days later, Feng Feiyan set out to return to Wufeng.
On the same day, Su Yi Jing set out to return to the secluded place where his father and mother were, to find them.
