TFDC Chapter 240.1

Chapter 240.1 - Only marrying one person 

The third prince’s residence’s garden was cold at night. 

But the whole garden was illuminated as if it was day, there were night pearls all around that gave off stunning light. 

Within a pagoda, Ye Ji raised a golden goblet, her expression beaming, “Third prince, this is for you! If it wasn’t for your perfect cooperation, I, Ye Ji wouldn’t be able to sit on the seat of the Night Prince’s consort!”

“You flatter me.” Xiahou Qing raised the goblet in front of him and lightly clinked it with hers, “If it wasn’t for your fantastic plan, I never thought that the Night Prince would marry you.” 

“Of course. That year, when he went to the Baiyue clan, I knew I’d marry him the moment I saw him. Even his laoye told my dad that he was the type of person to take emotions seriously. So if he’s that type of person, how could he not marry me after taking my innocence?” She’d already planned to do this a long time ago. 

But it was a pity that she never had the chance. 

Finally, she saw an opportunity with the right person at the right time and place. 

If Lou Qingwu knew it was her plan that worked so flawlessly, would she be so mad she’d spit out blood? 

Of course, Ye Ji wouldn’t say that out loud in front of the person across from her. 

She didn’t know what kind of potion Lou Qingwu poured down the third prince’s throat, for the third prince to actually believe that Lou Qingwu was as innocent and clean as a little white rabbit. 

“Hmph!” Xiahou Qing snorted, but his expression was still good. 

Ye Ji becoming the Night Prince’s consort could only mean good things for his plan, and wouldn’t have any repercussions for him. 

“I just don’t know how long you’ll be able to be the consort for? If in the future, he marries a side consort, you’ll be in danger.”

“That, you don’t have to worry about. He’ll never marry another person!” 

“Oh? That confident?” 

“It’s not that I’m confident. It’s that brother Ye would never. It’s probably because of his birth mother, but he once said that he’d only marry one person in his whole life.” 

“The Night Prince’s birth mother?” A light flashed in Xiahou Qing’s eyes, “To speak the truth, it seems like not many people know who the Night Prince’s birth mother is?” 

“That I’m not clear about, I just heard that from a long time ago. Why are you suddenly so interested?” 

“Nothing, I’m just curious. With how the Night Prince is, his birth mother would definitely be a gorgeous beauty …” 

Ye Ji laughed coldly, “You men.” But she didn’t say much more. 

Being in contact with this person for so long, Ye Ji knew exactly what he was up to with just a laugh of his. 

He just wanted to find out more about brother Ye through her, for the sake of using it against him in the future. 

Hmph, she has already reached her goal. 

And he still wanted her to help him, stop dreaming! 

When she actually marries into the Night Prince’s residence, that’s the day they’ll split up for good! 

Bang! 

As Xiahou Qing and Ye Ji continued to drink into the night, a sound suddenly sounded from not too far away. 

Xiahou Qing’s eyes were alert as he scanned the area around him, his eyes darkening, “Someone!” 

“Third prince!” 

“Go see what that is?” 

“Yes!” Not too long after, all sorts of dark guards came flying to look around. 

A short time later, they came back with an object and threw it in front of Xiahou Qing. “Third prince, someone threw something across the wall from the rear courtyard.” 

“Go see what it is.”
