Chapter13: Beautiful Prince Consort

Their eyes widened in surprise and covered their mouths with their hands, the girls shrieked  with delight. “Prince Li’s consort, why are you so pretty, are you a human or a deity descended from heaven?” The wedding guests were surprised and impressed with her beautiful look. 

Yun Ruoyue was taken aback, didn’t they curse and insult her for being ugly a while ago? Had they just addressed her as Prince Li’s consort just now. Wow, these people changed so fast, with a blink of an eye, their attitudes suddenly rotated 180 degrees. Those people were really a bunch of morons who only cared about appearance.  

“Am I dreaming? Prince Li’s consort is not ugly at all, she was a stunning beauty and more beautiful than Nangong Rou! Aiya, how could Prince Li not love a beauty like her?” The woman in a high-pitched voice regretted her earlier nasty comments. 

“Wasn’t the rumour going around that said the eldest daughter of the Yun family was an ugly woman? So it was a false rumour after all?”

“Such a beauty, she is gorgeous. How could a beauty like her be hidden behind a veil all day, it’s such a waste of talents!”

“What do you know? Being a delicate beauty, and her meek and gentle temper naturally attracting unwanted attention. It’s dangerous to be an exquisite beauty, perhaps, she has to keep a low-profile for self protection.”

“That’s so true, unlike someone who had an average look and shamelessly proclaimed herself as the Great Chu dynasty’s number one. In fact, she wasn’t as beautiful as Prince Li’s consort, didn’t she know that?”

“However, I saw her face a long time ago and she was indeed an ugly woman. Her face was disfigured with poisonous scars. I wonder what has happened to her?” 

“What nonsense are you babbling. The world is vast and full of wonders that have given us great amounts of miracle physicians. Possibly, the scars were removed and she was cured by some magical physician.”

Yun Ruoyue’s eyes narrowed slightly and her lips quirked disbelievingly as she stood on the sidelines listening to all this thoughtless gossip. Of course, she didn’t want to receive unwanted attention from them, and it was too late now as she was pushed outside and exposed to the public by Nangong Rou. She fears for more troubles coming in the future and this has to be thankful to her brilliant efforts.  

When Yun Ruoyue was quietly pondering at the side, suddenly she sensed a pair of cold eyes watching her for a long time, she shifted her gaze to that direction and their eyes met, it was him, Chu Xuanchen. 

His gaze remained on her with the surprised and disbelieving look in his eyes. 

It was yesterday that they made love and he remembered vividly that he saw her visage at that time. He was assured that there were ugly scars on that face and how come now it was gone? 

With an instant, he recognized her and the same person from yesterday, the only difference was that she looked beautiful without the scars. 

Right now, he really wanted to know what actually happened to her. 

Undeniably, the current Yun Ruoyue was gorgeous, too bad, she was not his cup of tea. 

Nangong Rou who stood next to him had noticed his intense gaze focused on Yun Ruoyue for quite some time. She clenched her long fingernails in her fist and cast an envious glance at Yun Rouyue. 

She was positively certained that Yun Ruoyue was disfigured, how did she turn out to be beautiful?

This can’t possibly be true because she was the one who poisoned her!

Long time ago, when they were young, they were famous in the capital as The Two Beauties. Two of them were well known as most beautiful girls, talented and proficient in the four major divisions of knowledge; music, chinese chess (analytical), literature and art. Then, one day the capital decided to select and crown the top first beauty for the Great Chu dynasty.

The selection day was drawing near and at that time, Yun Ruoyue was getting a better reaction from the people than Nangong Rong and was likely going to have more votes. Nangong Rou desperately asked for help from the mother to prepare a bottle of potent poison for her to put into Yun Ruoyue’s food. 

Since then, Yun Ruoyue was disfigured and Nangong Rou successfully been crowned as the Great Chu dynasty’s number one beauty. 

With that, in the name of the first beauty, she became rich and famous, she was made popular among the noble young master and royal princes. Among them, she has chosen Chu Xuanchen the most prominent candidate to be her companion. 

It was her fame that brought up her status and that was how she got the opportunity to get close to him. As of now, it seemed that she was no longer the first beauty and very soon she would lose Chu Xuanchen over to Yun Rouyue. 

In the moment of self-reflection, Nangong Rou realizes that she regretted her decision to pull off Yun Rouyue’s face veil. 

The plans not only failed to humiliate her in front of the people, Yun Rouyue’s splendour surpassed herself by ability to stand in the limelight, and in the results helped her to gain the upper hand to turn against herself. 

Seeing Yun Ruoyue stood in the centre of attention, Chu Xuanchen knitted his brows and glanced at her in a disgusted expression. “You have achieved the results that you wanted, get out of here, scram.”
