The Prime Minister's Darling novel Chapter 1209

Chapter 1209: 591 Fury of Xinyang (Part 2)

What did the Prince of An Guo just say?

This royal decree was taken out from his underpants?!

Princess Xinyang felt utterly terrible!

She was a woman, a princess of the dynasty!

Upon remembering how she had touched and smelled it in front of the two juniors, Princess Xinyang felt as if she had lost face for ten lifetimes!

"Why would you sew the decree in such a place!"

She slammed the desk and yelled fiercely!

The Prince of An Guo was a junior and a subject, and with Princess Xinyang’s powerful aura, even the emperor would cower before her, let alone a green and inexperienced Prince of An Guo.

When speaking with her, the Prince of An Guo didn’t dare to raise his eyes and offend her, naturally not seeing the various infatuated and absorbed movements she had made with the decree.

He was startled by Princess Xinyang’s sudden outburst of rage and finally dared to glance at her.

Princess Xinyang was furious, her stunning face flushed ten degrees angrier, and both her cheeks and neck turned red with anger.

The Prince of An Guo was utterly confused and said blankly, "If I didn’t sew it into the underpants, I wouldn’t be able to take it out..."

From the start, he never intended to destroy the royal decree.

Having such an important document in hand was like a lifesaving talisman, especially for them who dealt with the monarchy daily; nobody could guarantee a day when they wouldn’t be envied by their sovereign.

Indeed, he had originally planned to keep it close to him, concealed in his bosom.

But then he thought, what if his grandfather found out in time? His grandfather would surely search him.

There was only one place that might escape a search, and that was in his large underpants.

But stashing it in his underpants could easily lead to it falling out or being felt, so he decided to go back to his study room and sew it onto the fabric of the underpants.

As for why he ended up sewing and patching things up, he had his days of hardship in Bishui Alley to thank for learning how to sew clothes, despite being a man.

Of course, since his grandfather was so calculating, he didn’t rule out the slight chance that he might check even his underpants, so he orchestrated the fire in the study room.

He deliberately showed weaknesses and acted covertly, leading his grandfather to believe that he had the decree on him. After the study room was burned down, he showed a triumphant expression, making his grandfather think he was misleading him, with the purpose of burning the decree in the fire.

This way, his grandfather would never think to check his underpants again.

What he did not expect, however, was for his grandfather to become so angry that he would order him to be beaten to death.

This was beyond his expectations.

He overestimated his grandfather’s affection for him as a grandchild. If Xiao Hen hadn’t been keeping an eye on things and sent Minister Li in time to take him away, he was afraid he would have gone to see his late sovereign along with the decree in his underpants.

But, he would not thank Xiao Liulang.

Princess Xinyang was infuriated to the extreme. She glared fiercely at the Prince of An Guo, unable to control herself any longer, "Long Yi! Castrate him for me!"

Long Yi entered in a flash, swiftly grabbed the Prince of An Guo, and with the force of a thunderbolt, threw him into the backyard’s salting vat!

Princess Xinyang: "..."

I told you to castrate someone, not to pickle vegetables!

Princess Xinyang left with an iron-blue face!

Hunched over at the mouth of the salting vat, the Prince of An Guo was utterly baffled; he looked toward Xiao Hen approaching him: "Did I say something wrong? Why is Princess Xinyang angry? Is it because she thinks I desecrated the decree? By heaven and earth, I really had no other choice at the time."

Xiao Hen, having witnessed the whole scene, stifled his laughter and pulled the Prince of An Guo up from the vat: "No, you have made a great contribution by bringing the decree out."

"But she is still angry," muttered the Prince of An Guo, brushing the salt off himself; something occurred to him, and he spoke softly, "It seems the rumors are true."

"What rumors?" Xiao Hen asked.

The Prince of An Guo looked around to make sure Princess Xinyang wouldn’t come back, then whispered to Xiao Hen: "Princess Xinyang is capricious, often abusing the Marquis of Xuanping. It was because she was too cruel that they fell out as husband and wife." _{freewebnøvel.coɱ}

Xiao Hen’s lips twitched: "...She can’t beat the Marquis of Xuanping though, right?"

The Prince of An Guo said: "She is a princess; the Marquis of Xuanping dares not fight back."

Xiao Hen: "..."

During the conversation, the two returned to the study room.

"Do you want to take a look at the decree?" The Prince of An Guo picked up the decree on the table and handed it to Xiao Hen.

"No need," replied Xiao Hen; he nonchalantly took out a brocade box, opened it, and said to the Prince of An Guo, "Come, put it inside."

"Oh." The Prince of An Guo put the decree inside the brocade box, "Aren’t you going to look? Aren’t you afraid it’s fake?"

Xiao Hen said meaningfully: "No, Princess Xinyang has already checked it. Didn’t she say that the paper is different and especially silky?"

The Prince of An Guo nodded in realization: "It seems to be."

Xiao Hen could barely hold in his laughter; if he continued to restrain it, he would hurt himself from the inside.

He closed the box and said seriously to the Prince of An Guo: "Well then, I should be going."
