On Our Wedding Night, I Discovered the Crown Prince’s Hidden Illness

Chapter 308: Chapter 308: Cold Heart, Cold Feelings

Li Yuyue sighed, "Sister, there are still two more times, this..."

How could this be good?

He had heard of Extreme Joy Powder, renowned as the strongest and fiercest aphrodisiac in history. How could a regular person endure it?

The Crown Prince was not suitable, and furthermore, he did not approve of his sister having any involvement with the Prince of the Ye Family. He had to find another husband for her!

"Don’t worry, big brother. Didn’t you endure the first four times?"

This time, for some unknown reason, the sedative pills were not very effective, causing her to be in a groggy state while still having to endure the effects of the Extreme Joy Powder.

Therefore, she was particularly disheveled.

Leng Yu Yan tugged at the corner of her mouth, about to force a smile when, unexpectedly, her eyes closed, and she collapsed onto the bed.

When she woke up, it was already the next morning.

The journey afterward was easier.

Half a month later, Leng Yu Yan endured the fifth outbreak of the Extreme Joy Powder in the carriage, using the old method.

Li Yuyue, who was guarding outside the carriage, was deeply distressed. Damn it, although he was not fond of the Crown Prince, but...

If the Crown Prince had been a normal man, his sister wouldn’t have had to endure so much.

According to their grandfather’s wishes, it was intended for the Crown Prince to marry his sister, but damn it, the Crown Prince really was not a man.

As long as Leng Yu Yan endured inside the carriage, Li Yuyue was cursing the Crown Prince just as long outside.

After traveling for several more days, on the 8th of November, the carriage procession finally arrived at Beilan City!

The Prince Zhenbei Mansion returned safely, and the citizens of Beilan City welcomed them along the road.

With the gongs and drums filling the air and firecrackers sounding, it was livelier than the New Year!

Ye Yiheng was a guest. It wasn’t appropriate for him to stay at the Beilan Inn. According to the Old Prince’s wishes, the Crown Prince and his party stayed in the guesthouses at the Prince Mansion.

Once back at the mansion and after a brief rest, Leng Yu Yan went to the study. Under Xiaoshan’s narration, she began drawing the portrait of the bandit leader.

Miao Zhu had gathered quite a bit of information in the Prince Mansion and entered the study.

"Commandery Princess, the Crown Prince has moved into the guesthouse of the mansion, which is just beside the quarters of several young masters. It’s quite convenient to get there from our quarters."

Leng Yu Yan signaled Xiaoshan to grind ink and then spoke calmly, "Where he stays is of no concern to me."

Since the day he had carried her to his room, they had had no further interaction.

Now she thought that he must have acted out of pity that day, seeing how wretched she looked.

Otherwise, she couldn’t understand why he was so cold to her at other times.

Now she truly understood the real meaning of the words "cold-hearted".

Miao Zhu pursed her lips; even as a maid, she couldn’t understand the behavior of the Crown Prince. It was clear he had come to Beilan City for the Commandery Princess, but along the way, he acted like a stranger.

"Oh, right, someone from the Yun Family said that they will come to visit tomorrow."

Leng Yu Yan looked up, "The Yun Family?"

"It’s the Princess’s maternal family, the Yun Family."

"Oh, noted." Leng Yu Yan lowered her head and continued drawing.

Xiaoshan pointed at the drawing, "Commandery Princess, this man’s scar starts from his forehead, slants across the bridge of his nose, and then down his face."

Leng Yu Yan frowned, "Is it so ferocious?"

Xiaoshan nodded, "Yes, he is the boss of the bandits, and the scar on his face is quite terrifying."

Leng Yu Yan made slight modifications to the drawing; with just a few strokes, Xiaoshan exclaimed, "Commandery Princess, that’s exactly what Scar Face looks like!"

She cut off her pen and rubbed her sore wrists, speaking faintly, "Go call the Princely Heir."

With such distinctive features of Scar Face, it would be easy to capture him once he appeared.

Xiaoshan agreed and ran off.

Shortly after, Li Yuyue arrived.

He carefully examined the drawing paper, fell silent for a while, and said, "Good, have the painters produce it in batches, starting with posting in Beilan City, and eventually, the same will be done throughout Tiancheng."

After speaking, Li Yuyue rolled up the drawing paper and handed it to Gao Yuan behind him to handle immediately.

Seeing Mi Xinrong standing next to Gao Yuan, Li Yuyue said, "Once this matter is settled, Gao Yuan will take you to the army."

Mi Xinrong bowed and thanked him, "Thank you, Princely Heir, thank you, Commandery Princess!"

Li Yuyue nodded, "Bring out your true abilities!"

Mi Xinrong agreed.

Yu Yan took the opportunity to say, "Big brother, I want to send Xiaoshan to the army as well."

Li Yuyue looked at Xiaoshan and furrowed his brows.

This young man’s lips were red and teeth white, and he even had white hair, making him an oddity in the army.

Xiaoshan quickly knelt down and kowtowed, "Please, Princely Heir, give me a chance!"

Yu Yan pleasingly smiled, "Big brother, Xiaoshan provided a clue, does that count as a merit?"

"It does."

"Then give him a chance, if he trains well, he can be my guard later."

"You want guards and I will give you several." Li Yuyue shook his head and pointed at Xiaoshan, "With his physique, it will take him many years to make something of himself."

"I don’t want the ones given by my brother; I want the ones I choose myself. Xiaoshan is very good, sister begs you, big brother!"

Unable to resist his sister’s plea, Li Yuyue finally nodded and said sternly to Xiaoshan, "If the Commandery Princess has any need, you shall serve by her side. When she has no need for you, you may then train in the army. It will be hard for you to keep up with others, can you do it?"

Xiaoshan loudly said, "I can do it!"

"Alright, go." Li Yuyue waved them off.

Once they had left, he lowered his voice and said to Yu Yan, "Sister, big brother remembered something. On our way back to the city, I heard people saying that the Crown Prince has a consort."

"A consort for the Crown Prince?" Yu Yan was puzzled. "I haven’t heard about it."

Wasn’t it said that he dislikes women being near him?

Li Yuyue snorted lightly, "Why would he tell you such a thing?"

Silly sister!

"He aims to ally with our Prince Mansion through marriage, how would he tell you about the women by his side? He wouldn’t mention it before marriage, and after marriage..." Li Yuyue paused and added, "Being the Crown Prince, he is bound to have even more women after marrying."

Even if Ye Yiheng is physically impotent, for the sake of face, he would certainly maintain nominal consorts.

Moreover, who knows what kind of quirks a person virtually akin to a eunuch might have?

Yu Yan’s eyes lowered, "Big brother, as you have seen on this journey, there’s really nothing between the Crown Prince and me."

Hearing this, Li Yuyue nodded. It seemed that only when Yu Yan’s Extreme Joy Powder took effect did the Crown Prince make a move, and he was indeed rather indifferent the rest of the time.

Hostel.

Song Guo made the bed thicker and couldn’t resist patting the quilt, "Your Highness, shall we ask Prince Zhenbei to have the hostel start a charcoal fire?"

Ye Yiheng wrapped himself in a large cloak, "No need, if the quilts are not enough, we’ll take out the ones from the carriage."

Song Guo hesitated.

In November in Beilan City, it was much colder than in the capital city. When he spoke, his breath was visibly white.

In the Eastern Palace, charcoal fires were started every November until the next spring.

Beilan City was genuinely cold, and he felt it himself, let alone the Crown Prince.

Ye Yiheng then said, "If you’re worried about me, go out and buy some charcoal to light it up yourself."

Such trivial matters need not trouble others.

Song Guo, understanding the implicit meaning in the Crown Prince’s words, nodded in agreement, "I understand!"

After a brief pause, Song Guo still couldn’t help but express the doubts he had during the journey, "Your Highness, when did you and the Commandery Princess have a falling out?"

How was he not aware of this?
