Arc 1: Princess Substitution Arc

Chapter 1.1

I’m not gonna say much since I’m still busy but THIS, I gotta say…..

Xuan Yuan Rui is such a scumbag!

The weather was getting colder and in the twinkling of an eye, it was winter.

Xuan Yuan Rui consoled himself that it was the senior Taoist priest who was mistaken.  However,…..when he thought how he recently had been coming across all those annoying matters lately, Xuan Yuan Rui also felt some hesitation.

Otherwise, how could it be so coincidental that ever since they both got together, he kept encountering inconveniences and Ye Zhi Hua was also plagued by a strange illness?

The Eight Characters that she gave to the bureau when she married in was actually Ye Zhi Jin’s! As the investigation went deeper, the matter of Ye Zhi Hua changing her Eight Characters with Ye Zhi Jin, and the matter of Ye Zhi Hua using Ye Zhi Jin to be her replacement in her marriage with Xuan Yuan Qing were all, without exception, exposed.

Why did Zhi Hua want to deceive him?

When it comes to Xuan Yuan Rui, he was also a master at employing schemes and intrigues. Otherwise, how could he still mix around with and rise up among the royal family ne?

With upsetting things coming up one after another, Xuan Yuan Rui’s mind that was muddled with romantic love, started to get clearer and his IQ directly followed. This deep thought made Xuan Yuan Rui’s whole body break out in cold sweat–

This kind of change happened quietly. At first, Ye Zhi Hua was still ignorant. After a long time, she finally panicked and was unable to take care of her own tired and sick body. She kept intruding into Xuan Yuan Rui’s study because she wanted to meet him but as a result of their meeting, they naturally parted on bad terms.

In his memory, she was always a weak and gentle young girl but now she was bright and enchanting. She said that Physician Si’s medical skills were superb but Xuan Yuan Rui did not expect that Physician Si would lower his principles just for Su Wan. Su Jia’s 100 year old medicine that had been handed down for many years was used to treat Su Wan which let her body gradually recover. Now, Su Wan can already live a life just like any other normal person and can even get married and bear children.

However, he did not regret that time when he abandoned Su Wan and banished her to the cold yuan. He only regret letting her leave that night and didn’t try to keep her.
