Chapter 268: Yaoyao, I’ve Been Waiting for You
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“Since His Highness Li said so, let’s cancel the engagement.” Huo Yuntian’s gaze was fixed on the commander’s seal in Shen Liu’an’s hand. “As for this commander’s seal…”
“I meant what I said. Please take back the commander’s seal, Your Majesty.” Shen Liu’an wasn’t stingy and was willing to part with it. He handed the commander’s seal in his hand forward.
If Shen Liu’an hesitated or was unwilling, Huo Yuntian could still accept this item.
However, he really used the commander’s seal to exchange for grace. As long as his precious daughter was out of her misery, he didn’t care about the commander’s seal at all.
Shen Liu’an could ignore it, but Huo Yuntian had to consider the big picture.
“This matter has already made Miss Shen suffer. In order to make it up to Miss Shen, I’ll reward Miss Shen with 10,000 taels of gold. Minister Shen, I don’t have to worry about you. In the future, I still want Minister Shen to go to the battlefield and fight for me.” As Huo Yuntian spoke, he stood up and walked around the dragon throne. He walked in front of Shen Liu’an and personally helped him up from the ground.
“Thank you, Your Majesty.” Shen Liu’an hurriedly stood up and put away the commander’s seal. “Your Majesty is busy with government affairs. I’ll take my leave first.”
“Go, go.” The Emperor smiled as he watched Shen Liu’an leave.
Huo Zhao still had something to say, but before he could speak, he was interrupted by Huo Junhan.
“Your Majesty, the matter with Oriole Village has been explained. 1’11 take my leave first.” Huo Junhan said that he would take his leave, but he left before Huo Yuntian could nod.
When he pa.s.sed by Huo Zhao, Huo Junhan stopped and reminded him in a casual tone, “Prince Zhao, it’s time to leave the palace.”
“Yes, yes, yes. Zhao’er, you can take your leave first.” Huo Yuntian didn’t care about Huo Zhao’s reaction and waved his hand to let him leave.
Huo Zhao was filled with humiliation. Even if he was unwilling, he had no choice but to grit his teeth and leave.
Soon, as Shen Liu’an left the palace, the news of Shen Yaowei and Huo Zhao breaking off their engagement spread throughout the streets and alleys of the imperial capital like a gust of wind.
Ordinary people felt that Prince Zhao was really lucky. Not only did he marry a beautiful woman like Yu Linlang, but he also got rid of Shen Yaowei, a fool who only knew how to cause trouble.
However, the people in the intermediate court didn’t think so.
Shen Yaowei was indeed a fool, but the fact that General Shen was willing to use the commander’s seal to beg His Majesty to cancel the engagement was enough to show how high Shen Yaowei’s status in the Shen family was.
Prince Zhao offended Shen Yaowei, which was equivalent to offending the entire Shen family. Originally, he could still have the support of the Shen family. Once the engagement was canceled, it was already benevolent of the Shen family not to trip him up. It was impossible for them to stand on the same side as Prince Zhao.
Shen Yaowei was in a good mood when she heard the news. That night, the family had a meal to celebrate.
The next morning, Shen Yaowei woke up early.
According to the previous agreement, she still had to continue staying in Huo Junhan’s courtyard until the agreed date arrived.
She had changed into a light pink and purple traditional dress early in the morning, with a pure white cloak over it. She was clearly not wearing any makeup, and her long hair was only tied up with a moonstone hairpin, but she looked fresh and refined. Her small face was even brighter than usual, making the maid servants who served her in the past unable to help but be stunned.
Shen Yaowei had just gone out when a woman suddenly appeared from behind the stone lion at the door and pounced on her enthusiastically.
“Yaoyao, I’ve been waiting for you.” Yu Linlang smiled and tried her best to hide the coldness in her eyes.
After hearing Huo Zhao say that he had lost the Shen family’s support after calling off the engagement last night, Yu Linlang was more anxious than anyone else. She comforted Huo Zhao and said that she would think of a way to come over today to rope in Shen Yaowei. She would start with her and force the Shen family to submit..
