Chapter 107B: You will be blessed

Her silhouette halted and Luo Qing Luan’s gaze fell to see Nangong Qing grabbing onto her wrist. The latter later realised what he had done as he reluctantly loosened his grip as he said embarra.s.sedly, “Sor, Sorry, This Prince momentarily lost self-control, Young Miss Luo please forgive me.”

“Your Highness might not know yet that I’m already married to Prince Chu Nalan Ye, I’m no longer the past Young Miss Luo.” Luo Qing Luan withdrew her hand and suddenly looked back as she continued, “You should address me as Prince Chu Consort.”

Prince Chu Consort!

Prince Chu Consort!!!

Nangong Qing uncontrollable emotions abruptly exploded as he burst out, “Imperial Mother had plainly promised me that she would look for Imperial Father to ask for bestowal to me, why have you married Nalan Ye? Young Miss Luo, why, can you tell me why? Did Nalan Ye coerce you, or did Imperial Father bestow the marriage casually, TELL ME!”

Such agitation and so hurried, Luo Qing Luan discovered that she had thought too lightly of Nangong Qing’s feelings for her.

Nangong Qing already knew she had married Nalan Ye and was already a married woman, but he still wasn’t reluctant to give up. Could it be that if she said that she was being coerced then he would look for Nalan Ye or the Emperor to cause a ruckus? Did he really love her to such an extent?

“Your Highness, please calm down.”

Luo Qing Luan realised that she could not not explain, “His Majesty didn’t casually bestow the marriage and Nalan Ye didn’t coerce me, so don’t think so much.”

Nangong Qing’s hand halted as he was not willing to believe, “They really didn’t? Then… then why did you get married to Nalan Ye so quickly?”

Completely unimaginable that when he left, Young Miss Luo seemed to have not met Nalan Ye for a number of times? She had never liked him but on the contrary, she had been very gentle towards him. Furthermore he felt that Nalan Ye was cold to Young Miss Luo and he even helped him a.n.a.lyse how he could successfully marry her. If it wasn’t for the fact that he listened to Nalan Ye’s words, how would he have possibly headed towards the borders to suppress North Yue?

Suddenly, Nangong Qing seemed to have thought of something, could it be that this was a trap set up by Nalan Ye?

If it wasn’t so, why did Nalan Ye appear so cold towards Young Miss Luo in front of him, but after he just left, Nalan Ye then immediately married her? He’d never believed that there was no problem in between!

“If Your Highness is alright, then I’ll get someone to dispense the herbs needed for the prescription. Your condition is not very good so please stay within the mansion to recuperate. We can talk further after you’ve recovered.” Luo Qing Luo suddenly voices out, breaking Nangong Qing’s guesses.

The more he thought, the more unusual he felt as Nangong Qing couldn’t help but asked, “Young Miss Luo, I……”

“Your Highness please call me Prince Chu Consort.” Luo Qing Luan reminded.

“Luo….. Prince Chu Consort.” When this salutation was addressed, a sour feeling poured out from Nangong Qing’s heart. His feelings were extremely heavy. She made him address her as Prince Chu Consort represented that she had already acknowledged this status and she willingly married Nalan Ye. Moreover from her expression, there weren’t any signs of being coerced. The more Nangong Qing looked, the more upset he felt as he already didn’t know what else was there for him to say.

Even if he questioned Nalan Ye, what would it do?

They had already married for several days, everything was all too late.

Looking at Luo Qing Luan actively giving clear instructions to the servants, on how to prescribe the herbs according to the prescription, how to brew the concoction, everything was explained in detail and her voice was that soft and gentle just like a stalk of crab apple. Alas she was no longer his, for this entire lifetime, she had already become another man’s wife.

After the instructions, Luo Qing Luan turned around and looked at Nangong Qing and saw that he was distracted as he hung his head low with a listless look. She had somewhat guessed something in her heart but it wasn’t appropriate for her to console him. Surely she could not tell Nangong Qing that she and Nalan Ye were just a married couple on the surface and there was actually nothing between them right?

Nangong Qing’s character wasn’t too bad and as Crown Prince, he wasn’t put on a hedonistic air nor was he unskilled. He also wouldn’t use his status to suppress others and was indeed a good match for the position of future Monarch. But unfortunately, don’t like means don’t like, no matter how good he was, she still didn’t like him. The two of them were at most friends and other than that, there was no other possibility between them.

“Your Highness please wait a moment, the medication will be served soon.” Luo Qing Luan said to him, “Take a rest and if you need anything, just instruct them.”

On seeing Luo Qing Luan about to leave, Nangong Qing suddenly opened his mouth, “Wait.”

Luo Qing Luan turned back, “Is there anything that Your Highness still needs?”

“Young Miss Luo, I…. I want to ask you a question, I wonder if you….” Nangong Qing hemmed and hawed, not knowing how to open his mouth.

“Feel free to speak your mind.” Luo Qing Luan gave a slight smile.

As though her words had given Nangong Qing enough encouragement, he hesitated for a moment and finally asked, “Young Miss Luo, do you love Nalan Ye?”

Slightly frowning, Luo Qing Luan had not expected Nangong Qing to ask this question. Was loving Nalan Ye or not that important to him? Although she knew that she did not love Nalan Ye, but telling this to Nangong Qing didn’t seem very suitable, instead it seemed to be insinuating at something else.

She smiled, Since I’ve already married Nalan Ye, he is then my husband. No matter what happens, we will be alright.”

Nangong Qing’s expression darkened as he didn’t speak a word for a long time. By the time he raised his head again, Luo Qing Luan was nowhere in sight. He sat on the bed as his heart was twisted, tossed and turned around and after a long time, his tightly clenched fists slowly loosened.

Late meant late, no matter what he said, there was no more possibility anymore. Since she liked Nalan Ye and was willing to be together with him for the rest of her life, he also wished for her to be blessed.

“Young Miss Luo, you will definitely be blessed, I guarantee that! If Nalan Ye dares to let you down, I will definitely not let him off.” Nangong Qing’s expression was solemn as he vowed silently, suppressing these unspoken withered feelings at the deepest depth of his heart.
