Evil Emperor's Wild Consort Chapter 19 The Grave And Stern Crown Prince 3

Everyone knew that the Masters of the Luo Family and the Gu Family, the Right General and the Left General respectively, had never gotten along. However, the Lady of the Luo Family, Luo Yin, was a kindred spirit of the good-for-nothing Gu Ruoyun. She had even gone to the extent of standing up for her, several times.

But Luo Yin’s voice was loud enough to successfully attract the attention of everyone in the room towards Gu Ruoyun.

“Gu Ruoyun, of the Gu Family? Isn’t she that infamous good-for-nothing of Azure Dragon Country? Even if a citizen of Azure Dragon Country has never heard of Gu Shengxiao, they would have definitely heard of Gu Ruoyun. Besides, I’ve heard that she’s boldly challenged the lordling of the Ling Family to a duel.”

“Tsk tsk, the lordling of the Ling Family is a level five in the Qi Collection ranks. But I’ve heard that this Gu Ruoyun has been stuck at level two for many years.”

“Even though His Imperial Highness granted permission for the officials to bring their children to the celebration, a good-for-nothing like Gu Ruoyun shouldn’t have the right to show her face, should she?”

Hearing the mockery from the crowd, General Gu’s face turned from red to white, wishing that he could kill this good-for-nothing Gu Ruoyun in one slap. That would better than facing the humiliation here!

Luo Yin was just about to lash out at them, until a hand reached out and gently stopped her.

She was momentarily stunned, and turned around towards the young girl’s calm visage.

“Let it go, let them talk. Besides, it’s not like i’ll lose anything.” Gu Ruoyun shook her head, with a disapproving tone in her voice.

For example, would an elephant care about the chatter of ants?

The previous Gu Ruoyun, was that elephant.

“Announcing the arrival of His Royal Highness, the Crown Prince and the Imperial Concubine!”

Just then, a loud, crafty voice was heard, drawing the attention of the crowd.

Amidst the gaze of the crowd, a figured clothed in yellow made its way into the room, slowly coming into view…

It was an extremely handsome man. His features were stern and deep, with eyes like bottomless pools of black ink, shielding his thoughts from others.

When the crowd’s eyes fell upon the young woman in yellow next to him, they finally understood the meaning of the phrase “as pretty as a picture” and “a beauty that can cause the downfall of cities”. But even though her features were breathtaking, her face was unusually white. No amount of rouge could conceal her sickly pallor.

But because she appeared with the Crown Prince, everyone knew exactly who she was.

Especially since the Imperial Concubine Ling walked behind them both! This made the crowd feel even more suspicious…

“Greetings, Your Royal Highness, Lady Imperial Concubine.”

Once the crowd regained their senses, they kneeled on the ground in a uniformed fashion, and greeted them respectfully.

As such, Gu Ruoyun, who remained standing in the midst of the crowd, stuck out like a sore thumb…

“Gu Ruoyun, when greeting the Crown Prince and the Imperial Concubine, you will kneel immediately!” General Gu frowned, chastising her angrily.

“My apologies.” Gu Ruoyun shrugged her shoulders. “My legs developed hemorrhoids so it’s a bit difficult for me to kneel. Next time, I’ll definitely make it up to His Royal Highness and the Imperial Concubine.”

Hemorrhoids?

General Gu nearly lost control, dearly wishing he could get up and violently punch the girl. “Hemorrhoids developing on knees?” He fumed internally, “In all the sixty years of my f*cking life, this is the first time I’ve heard of anyone developing hemorrhoids on their knees, I’ve certainly gained a new experience.”

“Hehe.” Concubine Ling raised her lips into a smile, shooting a sharp gaze towards Gu Ruoyun. “This must be Gu Ruoyun, of the Gu Family? Your reputation precedes you. The rumors don’t live up to the real thing. I’ve even heard that you’ve challenged my nephew to a duel, is that true?”

This duel was not exactly a secret in Azure Dragon Country, but hearing this directly from Imperial Concubine Ling’s mouth certainly gave it a different flavor.

“That’s right.” Gu Ruoyun raised her head towards Imperial Concubine Ling, “I will defeat Ling Xi!”
