The Dramatic Crown Princess Wants to Poison Me!-Chapter 319: My Apologies for Any Offense

Huangfu Jinxuan glanced sideways, imperiously saying, "Stop getting familiar with me, do I even know you? Quickly, take off that mask for me, I want to see how handsome you really are!"

He was somewhat impatient.

Of course, it wasn’t anticipation for the person’s appearance; he was just waiting to have the excuse of arrogant boasting to let his guards capture the person and make him suffer.

The most notorious dandy in the Capital City was no saint!

Huangfu Jingchen slowly raised his hand.

Huangfu Jinxuan squinted, looking casually.

The mask was removed.

A gentle and elegant face appeared before him.

The previously indifferent Huangfu Jinxuan widened his eyes and exclaimed, "Damn it... you you you... you’re the..."

Unlike his expression that changed drastically, Huangfu Jingchen calmly interrupted him, "Yes, I’m Huang Zheng, previously impersonating Young Master Jing, my apologies!"

Huangfu Jinxuan’s eyes were still wide as he pointed at him, "You you you... impersonated Young Master Jing... that, cough cough cough..."

Huangfu Jingchen sighed, "I thought so, I’m too handsome, and you’d surely lose your composure upon seeing me!" His attitude was as if to say, "See, I warned you."

Huangfu Jinxuan swallowed hard and, with an extremely polite attitude, said, "Brother Huang Zheng, you’re right, you’re too handsome, and I did lose my composure!" After speaking, he awkwardly added, "What impersonating, I think Young Master Jing sounds nice, from now on, I’ll be Second Young Master, and you’ll be Young Master Jing!"

Upon hearing this, Yu Shikui nearly dropped his jaw in shock.

This outcome? How could it be completely different from what he expected? 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮

How could someone with Huangfu Jinxuan’s temperament agree to let an impersonator also be called Young Master Jing?

What’s going on here?

Could it be this young man named Huang Zheng was an old acquaintance of Huangfu Jinxuan? Otherwise, why the familiarity, and how could the fearless rogue king of the Capital City be so agreeable?

If he’s an old acquaintance, it’s no wonder he dared to impersonate Huangfu Jinxuan.

How did it happen that the imperial envoy from the Capital City turned out to be Huangfu Jinxuan?

Such bad luck!

Wen Hao was also shocked, his eyes nearly popping out. The envoy’s demeanor made him seem unaccommodating, arrogant, and dismissive, waving his fan with flamboyance, his eyes full of malice — a true embodiment of a rogue king, the city’s most extravagant playboy.

Yet, in contrast, his attitude toward Huang Zheng became gentle, even his superior gaze softened, with the arrogant tone replaced by warmth, and the malice and hostility in his eyes turned to kindness.

Is this some sort of magic trick?

Shang Jingwang, however, felt a sense of relief, not thinking too much about it; as long as Huang Zheng was fine.

Xia Wenjin looked at the expression on Huangfu Jinxuan’s face, a trace of deep contemplation flitting across her eyes.

In her past life, the Huangfu Jinxuan she saw in the Capital City had been a troublemaker who infuriated even King Kang to the point of illness. King Kang was not aligned with Huangfu Yuxuan, who seized the opportunity to design a scheme to eliminate King Kang and his heir, framing Prince Li, yet acted the part of the benefactor to win over Huangfu Jinxuan, intending to make use of him.

However, Huangfu Jinxuan suddenly went mad, killing people and causing chaos wherever he went in the Capital City.

Whether loyal to or against Huangfu Yuxuan, anyone who offended him faced immediate violence, turning the Prince Kang Mansion into a den of iniquity.

Later, he even abducted young women and kept them at the Prince Kang Mansion.

Huangfu Yuxuan loathed his failure to act sensibly and prepared to eliminate him to maintain a virtuous reputation, with Xia Wenjin volunteering to deal with him.

At that time, Huangfu Jinxuan was sinister and vicious, his gaze as venomous as a cobra’s. Even though Xia Wenjin was Huangfu Yuxuan’s legitimate wife, he ordered her capture, claiming he meant to disgrace Huangfu Yuxuan.

The Prince Kang Mansion had experts, and Huangfu Jinxuan indeed had his methods, managing to capture her.

That night, Huangfu Jinxuan forced her to swallow poison, his gaze filled with hatred and hostility akin to a lone wolf. Gritting his teeth, he said, "Huangfu Yuxuan loves you, right? He killed my father and brother, so I’ll take the life of the one he loves most!"

He didn’t harbor thoughts of humiliation, only intending to kill her! It turned out he was aware that the father and son of Prince Kang died at the hands of Huangfu Yuxuan.

What he didn’t know, however, was that the poison had no effect on Xia Wenjin, who was trained by the Undying Poison Doctor.

With her acupoints unsealed long ago, Xia Wenjin swallowed the poison merely as an act of deception.

That night, in that room, Xia Wenjin gave Huangfu Jinxuan a fierce beating.

Had he not stirred trouble making King Kang bedridden, Huangfu Yuxuan wouldn’t have had his chance. As a son, he made errors yet refused introspection, choosing instead to blame others.

Xia Wenjin didn’t wish to kill him, cutting off the Prince Kang line, but continued actions would see him eradicated by both Huangfu Yuxuan and those princes failing at alliances.

After thorough reprimanding of his faults, Xia Wenjin left, expecting further maniacal retaliation from Huangfu Jinxuan, even prepared, but days later, with wounds healed, he submitted a petition requesting guardianship of the Imperial Mausoleum.

The Emperor approved, and from then on, Huangfu Jinxuan never appeared in the Capital City again.

However, four years later, upon the Emperor’s death, when Huangfu Yuxuan was to ascend as Imperial Grandson, Prince Lu suddenly pointed out that the Emperor had not died naturally but at Huangfu Yuxuan’s hands, initiating a war under the guise of supporting the throne. The new Prince Kang, Huangfu Jinxuan, responded quickly.

Huangfu Yuxuan had long been watching Prince Lu, so the latter’s rebellion was merely thunder without rain, yet Prince Kang became a true source of anxiety.

Huangfu Jinxuan allied with Prince Zhuang, Prince Li, Prince Xin...

Almost plunging all of Nanxia into another conflict, the throne that seemed within Huangfu Yuxuan’s grasp took three long years to secure.

Nanxia was left gravely weakened; though Huangfu Yuxuan gained the throne, its defense was uncertain. By then, she had already passed, naturally remaining in the dark.

Although this was Huangfu Jinxuan changed by his family’s tragedy, and perhaps different from the present Huangfu Jinxuan, she still remembered those eyes of the lone wolf-like hostility and cunning, keeping Huangfu Yuxuan preoccupied — this dandy concealed both scheming and calculating minds that from youth on were masked by troublemaking and arrogance, hiding intelligence in a delicate balance with his noble lineage. No, this man wasn’t kind-hearted.

Would someone like this be so agreeable?

Does Huang Zheng perhaps have another special identity?
