Chapter 2097: The Young Prince’s Request

Jun Linyuan glanced at Feng Wu and said, “I’ll sit with you, then.”

Feng Wu was waiting for him to say that!

If she brought it up, Jun Linyuan would feel good about himself again and assume that she was in love with him. She was glad that he had reached that conclusion himself.

Jun Linyuan chuckled inwardly when he saw the smile on Feng Wu’s face.

Many people were walking around because everyone was getting ready to set out.

The chieftain came to see them off with his sons and daughters.

“Your Majesty, my brother-in-law!” The younger prince greeted Emperor Wu.

Unlike his attitude toward the older prince, Emperor Wu was quite friendly toward the younger prince, since he had a plan of his own.

And he wanted to support the younger prince.

Given his guilt toward Ranmil, he was even nicer to the prince.

“Prince of Gomul, do you have any questions?” Gomul was the title Emperor Wu had given the younger prince, making him the first prince of the grassland; not everyone had agreed with his move.

And to his surprise, even the prince himself objected to it.

“Your Majesty, may I exchange this title for something else?” the prince asked gingerly in a low voice.

Emperor Wu’s face darkened a little. “What?”

“Your Majesty, I’m sorry for saying this, but a young lady saved my life, and I promised that I would marry her. I can’t break my promise…”

Everyone looked at the Prince of Gomul.

Had he lost his mind? Didn’t he realize what it meant to become the first prince of the grassland? Why would he want to give it up for a woman?

While Emperor Wu was disappointed at his lack of ambition, the other members of the grassland were relieved.

Emperor Wu glowered at the younger prince.

Was he dumb or clever? The young prince had almost ruined his entire plan.

“Which young lady?” Emperor Wu snorted. “If you like her so much, I’ll let her stay in the grassland and marry you.”

The younger prince was elated.

“Thank you, Your Majesty!” The prince dropped to his knees and thanked the emperor.

Everyone was perplexed.

What kind of beauty would make a prince give up his right to the throne?

“Who is she?” Emperor Wu was angry and curious at the same time.

The younger prince took out a scroll.

“This is a painting of the young lady,” the younger prince said shyly.

Emperor Wu glanced at Wang.

Wang went to the prince and fetched the scroll for Emperor Wu.

When Emperor Wu saw the painting —

He was astonished.

He glared at the younger prince. “Is this really the woman you want to marry?”

The younger prince prostrated on the ground and said, “Yes! I promised her that I would marry her! Brother-in-law, please give me your permission!”

The younger prince hadn’t been bold enough to make that request at first. He had been recovering from his injuries, but once he was back on his feet again, he heard that the people of the Junwu Empire were leaving the following day. Therefore, he came here to beg this of Emperor Wu.

Emperor Wu burned with rage as he studied the painting.

He decided that Feng Wu was a frivolous woman who had seduced both Jun Linyuan and the younger prince.

“Get Feng Wu here!” he shouted angrily.

Everyone looked at him in surprise.

Feng Wu?

Was she the person on the younger prince’s scroll?

But why… Wasn’t Feng Wu in love with the crown prince? Since when was she into the younger prince?
