Chapter 1060: Enemies Approaching the City III
“Sister-in-law, Yiyi is innocent! She shouldn’t be ruined by your selfishness and Elder Brother’s selfish desires!”
You Lan’s eyes were red. She used to think that men were terrible. Unexpectedly, women were also as terrible as men.
She Die looked calmly at You Lan. “Women should understand their roles. It is already Gu Yiyi’s honor that your elder brother is willing to accept her as a concubine since she is not strong and has no proper background. She shouldn’t reject it! The more she refuses, the more he would care about her!”
She implicated that Gu Yiyi did not have the right to reject the eldest prince and that only the eldest prince could abandon her!
You Lan was disheartened. She clenched her fists. “Are you done talking? Leave me alone! I used to think that you have abandoned everything for love and even your life. Therefore, I have always admired you. However, you have become such a pervert now, a pervert that disgusts me!”
Shen Die was not annoyed but instead, stood up with a smile. “You Lan, you don’t have to be angry. I just came to tell you that your wedding date is set. You will be married to Zheng Gong in half a month’s time. Congratulations.”
You Lan smiled sardonically. She closed her eyes and sat quietly on the bed. She no longer spoke as she ignored Shen Die.
She Die did not continue to stay. She glanced at You Lan deeply and walked out nonchalantly.
She saw the eunuchs in the palace walking hurriedly just when she walked out of the palace.
Her heart sank. She pulled aside a eunuch who was about to leave and asked, “What happened?”
After seeing Shen Die in front of him, the eunuch bowed with courtesy and said, sharply, “Your Highness, the spirit beasts have arrived at the city. The eldest prince was instructed to go check on the situation.”
Shen Die stiffened.
Spirit beasts? Arrived in the city?
Were they crazy?
She shook her head without thinking much.
The spirit beasts were not so powerful on this mainland. So, there was nothing to be afraid of. Maybe some spirit beasts could not stand the oppression anymore and had come to retaliate. Anyway, it would be resolved easily with the eldest prince’s strength.
The eldest prince returned in a hurry not long after he had led the soldiers to the frontline.
He was proud because of the apparent victory.
The entire marquis city was promoting the great merits of the eldest prince and even the emperor rewarded him.
“I heard that the eldest prince has just led the people to deal with those spirit beasts. However, the spirit beasts had run away after hearing about it. They were probably afraid of the eldest prince after learning about his great reputation…”
“Who do they think they are? How could they be our enemies? It’s ridiculous. They are already afraid of the end before the eldest prince has even taken any action.”
“Unfortunately, the city gate was destroyed by the spirit beasts, but it doesn’t matter. The eldest prince has ordered people to rebuild the city gate overnight. It will just take about one night since many people are building it.”
***
The next day.
The morning sun had just rose.
With a loud bang, the city gate that was half-built collapsed again.
A group of spirit beasts led by the wolfhound walked in from the city gate.
These spirit beasts did not hurt people. However, they rushed into the spirit beasts pavilion to rob and release all the spirit beasts locked up by the humans.
Not only that, but the spirit herb chamber was also facing the same crisis.
Moreover, if they saw anyone enslaving and whipping any spirit beasts, they that were originally robbing would become extremely cruel and fierce. They would attack that person and take away his spirit beast. Then, they would swagger away.
