Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

Chapter 734: Prisoner?

Emperor Yang Zhou looked at Shangguan Yu and Princess Hu. He had always known that this ‘sickly’ Imperial Sister of his was not what she looked like on the surface. Those who could survive in this bloody Imperial Family were all not ordinary people.     

This naturally included Princess Hu.     

“There’s no need to be so courteous.” Emperor Yang Zhou looked at Shangguan Yu. “Now that Yang Hu is married to you, Zhen* hope that you can take care of her, Shangguan Yu.”     

“Your Majesty didn’t have to worry. Since this subject had married Her Highness, this subject will naturally treat her well.” Shangguan Yu showed a hint of smile, looking like a husband who was head over heels towards his wife.     

Princess Hu forced a smile on her face. She looked at Emperor Yang Zhou and realized that he was only talking with them as formality. The one who fixed this matter was him and it naturally meant that he would never help her.     

“Shangguan Family is a good family with deep history. Imperial Sister wouldn’t be wronged in their family.”     

“Subject sister understood Emperor’s intention.”     

Even though Princess Hu really wanted to scratch the layer of mask on Emperor Yang Zhou’s face, she knew that it was impossible. Even if she waited until the end of her life, she felt that there would never a chance for her to be able to go against her Imperial Brother.     

He would always stand in a place she would never be able to reach in her entire life.     

When they were young, he was the crown prince because their father favored his mother. And when he grew up, he become the Emperor whom she could never offend.     

It was annoying.     

“Good.” Emperor Yang Zhou looked at Shangguan Yu for a moment. “Zhen would not disturb you two much longer. It’s a pity that Commander Shangguan is not in the Capital City or he would definitely like to meet with you two.”     

“Yes, it’s unfortunate.”     

Shangguan Yu kept on smiling. Only he knew the truth that his father didn’t want to go back and sent a letter to him that he was busy with the battle at the frontline.     

There was no battle.     

He simply didn’t want to return and face his descendant anymore. Probably, he felt that not meeting with any of them were for the best. After all, would he want to meet with the person who killed his wives and children?     

There was no doubt that he wouldn’t want to.     

No father would want to be in this kind of situation either.     

Emperor Yang Zhou didn’t hold the two of them any longer and allowed them to go back. He only reminded Princess Hu that she would have to pay a visit to Empress Dowager Yan in three days. After all, she was still categorized as her mother even though her own birth mother had died a long time ago.     

When they returned to the residence, Princess Hu yanked her hand from Shangguan Yu. She looked at her crippled husband and snorted. “Don’t think that you can hold me in this place forever.”     

“I’ll never think of it that way.” Shangguan Yu chuckled. He waved his hand as the manservants moved. “Starting from now, you’re not allowed to leave this building.”     

“Shangguan Yu!”     

“I’ll pay a visit to you tonight.” Not listening to his wife’s enraged yell, Shangguan Yu let the servants pushed his wheelchair. “And you won’t be able to do anything, my dear wife.”     

“B*stard!”     

Prang!         

Princess Hu smashed the nearby porcelains. Seeing how the servants were following Shangguan Yu’s words strictly, she had the feelings that these people were all trained very terribly. The gentlemanly face that Shangguan Yu showed on the surface was only a fake that he showed in front of others.     

Feeling terrible, Princess Hu could only scream and rushed over to her bedroom. She would never guess that he was this bad.     

“Madam…”     

“Serve me!” Princess Hu yelled at her own maidservants. She really wanted to cry and break down but what use would it be? She couldn’t get away from here and getting a divorce was not exactly a thing either.     

Even though she was part of the Imperial Family, she would need an extremely good reason to divorce her husband. He merely ‘trapped’ her in this building but this building itself was very large.     

She had everything she needed here.     

Still, Princess Hu didn’t want to stay within a courtyard forever like this.     

“Young Master.”     

Shangguan Yu went to the study room with the servant who pushed his wheelchair. He looked at the servants around the room as his gaze turned a shade colder. “Watch over her and make sure she can’t get away.”     

“Yes, Young Master.”     

Seeing their expression, Shangguan Yu knew that they didn’t think that this was a good method, but he would never be able to take Princess Hu’s heart by playing nice. That proud princess had everything one could only imagine in their entire life and naturally very stubborn.     

Since it was the case, he would capture her here and break her down.     

He would make her understand that there wouldn’t be anyone else in her world but him and she could never get away from him.     

“The force behind the princess.” Shangguan Yu looked at the front, his gaze was cold. “Get the token from her.”     

“Yes, Master.”     

The princess was still part of the Imperial Family and naturally had her own force. Since he wanted to make her completely under him, he would first take everything that could give her hope from her.     

Besides, she would have no need of them while he could use them.     

It was time for him to start making a comeback in the nobility world.     

…     

“Miss, the mission is done.”     

Nan Hua put down her embroidery and turned to look at Nan Si. He had sneaked into her room once again.     

“Did they say anything?”
