Chapter 746: Chapter 746: Take Her Back Leng Yu Yan, upon hearing the sound, froze as if under an immobilization spell, holding her clothes without moving. Footsteps approached from behind, his footsteps. The steps were light yet cold, his voice even colder, “Planning to escape again?” Leng Yu Yan knew that, to him, anything she said at this moment would be wrong, so she chose to remain silent. Miao Zhu extended her arms, trying to prevent Ye Yiheng from approaching their commandery princess, but with a glance from Ye Yiheng, Mo Chen Ruo Feng appeared immediately and lifted Miao Zhu away. “Commandery Princess…” Miao Zhu struggled, “Let me go!” Leng Yu Yan turned to pull Miao Zhu but was blocked by Ye Yiheng stepping across. Mo Chen Ruo Feng, one on each side, held Miao Zhu off the ground. No matter how she struggled, it was useless; they swiftly carried her out of the room. Only Leng Yu Yan and Ye Yiheng were left in the room. He glared at her, his deep eyes undisguised with coldness. Leng Yu Yan bit her lip and remained silent, turning back to continue packing her belongings. Ye Yiheng, restraining the impulse to strangle her, said coldly again, “You think I came to Nandian to look for you, Leng Yu Yan, you flatter yourself.” Leng Yu Yan paused in her packing at his words, only to hear him continue, “Do you really think I would covet a woman who is so eager to leave?” “Yes, Your Highness possesses a majestic presence, there are plenty who adore you, I was mistaken,” she said, her back to him, her voice calm. Ye Yiheng sneered, “You seek the Emperor of Nandian and the Crown Prince as your support, what could I do to you?” In truth, even if she sought the entire Nandian Royal Family as her support, how he treated her was entirely up to him. Leng Yu Yan, with her back to him, nodded, “Your Highness speaks wisely.” Ye Yiheng watched her slender figure intently, his heart a mix of love and hate, his voice unemotional, “If you dare to run before I leave Nandian, I will kill you.” His tone was chilling, and his words terrified. “Since Your Highness didn’t come to find me, where I go has nothing to do with Your Highness, does it?” The corner of Ye Yiheng’s mouth turned cold, his thin lips parting slightly, “I least like people escaping from my presence. If you dare to flee, I will deal with your previous crimes as well.” His voice was cold and indifferent. Unable to discern his intentions, Leng Yu Yan turned around. Before her, he seemed like an Immortal, alienation spreading from the depths of his eyes, and even, she faintly saw impatience in them. She couldn’t help but ask him directly, “Does Your Highness mean you don’t want to see me leave Nandian again during your stay? Once Your Highness returns to Tiancheng, I am free?” With such a heartless and unrighteous woman, what truth was there to tell? Ye Yiheng’s eyebrows slightly raised, his voice was crisp, “Indeed, that is my intent.” He looked at her eyes casually, his tone unexpectedly cultured, “Since Baili Shuo wishes for you to become his daughter-in-law, why don’t you stay in Nandian to make a contribution to Tiancheng?” Upon hearing that, Leng Yu Yan laughed, so that was his meaning. As long as he left quickly, her future life in Nandian was her own affair. With this thought, she gave him a bow, “Thank you for your blessing, Your Highness!” Ye Yiheng swept away with a flick of his sleeve. He had deliberately spoken in that manner, merely to see her true reaction. Unexpectedly, she had thanked him for his blessing. To bless her union with Baili Zhengrong? Once she became his woman, she would be his for eternity! Even if her bones were crushed to ashes, she would still be his ghost! Seeing him leave, Leng Yu Yan collapsed onto the ground, disheartened. Eventually, Miao Zhu was released and returned, and upon seeing her Commandery Princess sitting on the ground, she hurried to help her up. “Commandery Princess, what’s wrong with you?” Miao Zhu sobbed, “Did the Crown Prince do anything to you?” Leng Yu Yan got up, shaking her head blankly, “I’m fine, we just can’t leave for now.” “Why can’t we leave?” “He said he would kill me.” Upon hearing this, Miao Zhu covered her mouth in shock, then thought for a moment and asked, “We must tell Xiaoshan about this. Now that he is the Prince of Nandian, he can protect the Commandery Princess.” Leng Yu Yan shook her head again, “Don’t mention it, I don’t want to add to others’ worries. He came to Nandian not to seek me out. That day at the palace, he pretended not to know me. Since that’s the case, we’ll wait until he leaves Nandian, then consider where in Nandian we can settle.” Miao Zhu nodded, agreeing that the Crown Prince treating the Commandery Princess as a stranger was perhaps a good thing. Earlier, Mo Chen Ruo Feng acted as if he didn’t recognize her, and even Song Guo, who clearly saw her, pretended not to. From now on, everyone will have their own lives, and all is well. Several days later, Baili Wenyi returned to the Nandian Capital City. Shortly after Ye Yiheng left the capital, she received news and set out from Tiansheng Capital City. Since she couldn’t keep up with Ye Yiheng’s pace, she decided to return to Nandian. Unexpectedly, she received confidential information saying that the Imperial Concubine was sent to the cold palace because the Prince who had been lost among the common people had been found. Upon receiving this message, she hastened her return to Nandian. It was only upon reaching the capital city that she learned Ye Yiheng had already arrived in Nandian. What shocked her even more was that her so-called brother turned out to be the white-haired youth by Leng Yu Yan’s side. She couldn’t be blamed for not recognizing him, nor for not having the chance to kill him sooner, as he had been far too young when he left Nandian. The most astonishing news was that Father Emperor’s migraines had been cured, and the Imperial Power of Nandian was fully restored to Father Emperor’s hands. Now that she had returned, with mother confined to the cold palace and power drained from her, winning became as hard as reaching the heavens for her and her mother. Moreover, if she were to return directly to the palace, she might be confined together with her mother by Father Emperor. While Baili Wenyi was indecisive, the ministers who supported her and her mother found her and relayed another startling piece of information. Content orıginally comes from 𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹•𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖•𝗇𝗲𝘁 “Princess, the Emperor’s migraines were cured by Princess Tiancheng. Now, the Emperor wishes for Prince Zhengrong to marry Princess Tiancheng to ensure the continuation of his lineage. Shall we…,” he made a throat-cutting gesture, “this way, Nandian will still belong to the Princess.” Combining this with the news she had heard earlier, Baili Wenyi suddenly laughed. If Father Emperor wished for Baili Zhengrong to marry Leng Yu Yan, and Ye Yiheng did not object, could it be that the Emperor of Tiansheng had already ordered Leng Yu Yan to be deposed? In that case, Ye Yiheng and Leng Yu Yan must have reached an irreconcilable point. This meant her opportunity had arrived. Ye Yiheng was the Crown Prince of Tiansheng, and all nations held Tiansheng in high regard. If she could marry him, she would be able to maintain her power in Nandian, and her mother could be freed from the cold palace with ease. Then, if she used her methods to kill Baili Zhengrong, Nandian would be hers, and so would Ye Yiheng! At that time, perhaps Nandian and even Tiansheng would belong to her! With this in mind, Baili Wenyi sent a trustworthy person to find Ye Yiheng, hoping to negotiate a deal. Ye Yiheng agreed to the meeting, and the two met in a private room of a restaurant. Concerning Baili Wenyi’s proposal of marriage alliance, Ye Yiheng outright refused, “The Princess might consider how to return to the palace safely.” Baili Wenyi, persistent, asked, “Your Highness disagrees?” Ye Yiheng responded coldly, “Returning to the palace will give you a chance to see your mother.” Whichever family sits on the throne of Nandian is of little concern to him. He had come to Nandian with the intent to punish a certain disobedient woman and to take her back with him!
