The Sickly Regent Prince Who Was Abandoned as a Substitute Bride

Chapter 103 Ye Jiuchen at the age of 2

At this moment, An Ye spoke up: "Master, you sent Lu Chengfeng back to the capital with serious injuries, and he has already arrived in the capital."

Ye Jiuchen's lips curled up slightly, revealing a sly smile: "Oh? Is that so? That's wonderful!"

An Ye smiled helplessly and continued, "Master, you're killing two birds with one stone! You can let Lu Chengfeng avoid the dangers at the border and allow him to return to the capital to recuperate. The only concern is whether things will get chaotic at the border."

Ye Jiuchen pondered for a moment: "Don't worry, I have my own plans..."

“Master, there is one more thing to be aware of. News has spread from the capital that you are dead,” Dark Night reminded him.

Upon hearing this, Ye Jiuchen wasn't surprised. Instead, he laughed: "Haha! This is an excellent idea! But it's alright, let them mistakenly believe I'm dead. This way, I'll let my elder brother know that without me, his throne isn't so easy to sit on..."

After saying that, Ye Jiuchen rubbed his head and turned to Dongfang Wan'er, saying, "Wan'er, we still have a long way to go, do you want to rest for a while?"

Dongfang Wan'er shook her head and asked with concern, "Ye Jiuchen, are you feeling unwell? How about I massage your temples for you?" As she spoke, she reached out and gently massaged Ye Jiuchen's temples.

Ye Jiuchen felt a warmth in his heart as he felt Dongfang Wan'er's care. He held her hand and said softly, "Thank you, Wan'er. I feel very safe with you by my side."

Dongfang Wan'er nodded, then took out a tonic from her sleeve...

"Drink it, it'll help you recover..."

"Hmm..." Ye Jiuchen took it and drank it all in one gulp...

"I'll head out now..." Dongfang Wan'er said...

Ye Jiuchen grabbed Dongfang Wan'er's hand and pulled her close, his deep eyes fixed on her. His tone was tinged with displeasure: "Wan'er, where are you going? You accepted my proposal and are now my principal wife. Do you want to leave me?"

Dongfang Wan'er looked at Ye Jiuchen with some surprise, her mind filled with doubt.

She remembered clearly that Ye Jiuchen had said that although they had been proposed to, they were not yet married, so they could not ride in the same carriage.

But why has Ye Jiuchen suddenly changed his attitude? He must have lost his mind.

“Men and women should be different…” Dongfang Wan’er broke free from Ye Jiuchen’s hand and got off the carriage directly…

Ye Jiuchen frowned slightly, seemingly quite dissatisfied with Dongfang Wan'er's answer. He gave a soft hum.

"An Ye, what does Wan'er mean by this? She was fine just now, how come she suddenly acts like this is different from me?" Ye Jiuchen turned to look at An Ye beside him, a hint of displeasure flashing in his eyes.

Dark Night shook his head helplessly and said softly, "Master, you forgot, you said it yourself..."

Ye Jiuchen frowned, trying hard to recall the past. His eyes were blank as he muttered to himself, "What did I say? I would never have said such a thing..."

Suddenly, Ye Jiuchen seemed to remember something, and a look of sudden realization appeared on his face. He took a deep breath, channeled his inner energy, and gathered all the power in his body into his palm.

With a powerful aura erupting, Ye Jiuchen slammed his palm down on the carriage. A deafening crash was heard, and the sturdy carriage was instantly smashed into pieces, scattered all over the ground.

Ye Jiuchen nodded in satisfaction, leaping down from the carriage and standing on the ground. He smiled slightly and called out to Dongfang Wan'er inside the carriage, "Wan'er, my carriage has broken down..."

Dongfang Wan'er stared wide-eyed at what was happening before her, utterly bewildered. She simply couldn't understand why Ye Jiuchen would act so impulsively, destroying her carriage.

Ignoring Dongfang Wan'er's reaction, Ye Jiuchen flashed and entered the carriage. With a smile, he said to Dongfang Wan'er, "Wan'er, my carriage is broken, so I'll have to ride with you."

Dongfang Wan'er was speechless. Looking at Ye Jiuchen's innocent expression, she really didn't know what to say.

"You, get out..." Ye Jiuchen said sternly, dismissing him.

Qiuqin glanced at Dongfang Wan'er with some concern, and only after seeing her nod slightly did she step out of the carriage and sit outside.

"Cough cough cough..." An Ye crawled out of the rubble of the carriage in a disheveled state, coughing as he bowed to Ye Jiuchen: "Master, could you please give me a heads-up before you destroy a carriage next time?" He muttered to himself, "What did this carriage do to deserve this? Why did my master destroy it?"

An Ye usually loves riding horses, but this time, because Ye Jiu Chen was also in the carriage, only An Yi could ride the horse, while he and Qiu Qin sat outside the carriage.

Ye Jiuchen reached out and pulled Dongfang Wan'er into his arms, letting her sit on his lap. "Wan'er, just bear with it and squeeze in with me for a bit," he said, his tone carrying a hint of coquetry.

Dongfang Wan'er's face flushed instantly. She tried to struggle, but found that Ye Jiuchen's arms were holding her tightly like iron clamps. "Ye Jiuchen, let me go! This is outrageous!"

"I won't let go. I just love holding you," Ye Jiuchen said domineeringly, showing no sign of loosening his grip.

Just then, the carriage suddenly stopped. "Your Highness, there's something going on ahead," came An Yi's voice from outside the carriage.

Ye Jiuchen frowned, released Dongfang Wan'er, and said in a low voice, "Stay here and don't move." Then he lifted the carriage curtain, jumped out of the carriage, and went to check the situation.

Dongfang Wan'er took the opportunity to straighten her clothes, secretly relieved. Wasn't he supposed to be a cold and aloof prince? Wasn't there a difference between men and women…? He really is fickle…

Looking out the car window, Dongfang saw a group of people fighting not far ahead.

"Master, it's a group of bandits robbing us..." Dark Night said...

Ye Jiuchen looked ahead, "Then let's ignore it and just go. We'll deal with them if they try to rob us..."

Ye Jiuchen boarded the carriage

"What's going on? Is it another assassination attempt?" Dongfang Wan'er asked.

“No, Wan’er… it was a robbery!” Ye Jiuchen replied.

“Uh! We can’t interfere with robbing others, but you’re the Regent…” Dongfang Wan’er said.

"Does Wan'er want me to interfere?" Ye Jiuchen looked at Dongfang Wan'er with his deep eyes...

"Whatever." Dongfang Wan'er was a little afraid to look Ye Jiuchen in the eye; something in Ye Jiuchen's eyes seemed to be drawing her in...

Ye Jiuchen's lips curled slightly; this woman was still so stubborn. He thought to himself, "If she asks me to rescue those people, then I'll help her." However, Dongfang Wan'er didn't speak, which disappointed Ye Jiuchen, but at the same time, he felt that this woman was very special.

"Alright, since Wan'er doesn't want to meddle, let's continue on our way." Ye Jiuchen said, gesturing for An Ye to drive away.
