Chapter 619: Engaged to Prince Jin

Bai Zhi frowned: “That Pei Qinghan, why did he kill me? Why did he poison his wife? What does he have in mind?”

Dongfang Mu shook his head: “I have been wondering about this matter. Why is Pei Qinghan doing this? A tiger, though cruel, will not devour its cubs. Why did he do this to his own flesh and blood? And my Wan’er, how many talented young men begged to marry her in the capital, but I married her to him. He didn’t know how to be grateful. He even bit the hand of the master who feeds him. This beast, when I enter the capital, I will tear him with my own hands.”

Bai Zhi said: “Before tearing him, we must first figure out these things. There is no love or hatred for no reason in this world. There must be reasons for all these things.”

Dongfang Mu nodded his head: “Yes, you are right, there must be something we do not know. Oh, there is another thing I forgot to tell you, Pei Qinghan found a girl somewhere, saying it was the child that year. I guess he heard the news that I and the emperor found clues about the child, so he took the first step to find the child to get rid of his sins. Secondly, he might want to take advantage of your engagement to Prince Jin to make Changyuan Houfu prosperous.”

Bai Zhi was shocked: “What did you say? My engagement with Prince Jin? I am engaged to Prince Jin?” She couldn’t believe it, what another coincidence, they were… …

Dongfang Mu said with a smile: “Yes, you are engaged to Prince Jin. You can rest a.s.sured that Prince Jin is a very good child. If you marry him in the future, you will not be wronged.”

When Hu Changlin heard this, he immediately jumped out of his chair: “No, no, Zhi’er can’t marry that Prince Jin. Zhi’er and my son, Hu Feng have already signed a marriage contract and can’t marry another person.”

Dongfang Mu was stunned, and asked Bai Zhi: “Is this true? If it is true, I will respect your choice. You can marry whoever you like. I will not let you take after Wan’er.” It’s a pity, he like Prince Jin. He knows his character. He was a real man and knows his responsibilities. If this child can marry him, it will be matched made by heaven.

Bai Zhi blushed and smiled: “You may not know this matter yet, but Hu Feng is Chu Yan. Chu Yan is Hu Feng. They are the same person.”

Not only Dongfang Mu was shocked and speechless, but Hu Changlin.

“Is Chu Yan Prince Jin?” Hu Changlin asked carefully.

Bai Zhi nodded her head: “Yes, he is Prince Jin. He was a.s.sa.s.sinated by the traitors 3 years ago. And then, you saved him. 3 months ago, he finally recovered his memory, so he went to join the army and returned to where he originally belonged to. He took back everything that belongs to him.”

When Dongfang Mu returned to his senses, he deeply bowed his head to Hu Changlin, who was still confused: “I, Dongfang Mu, on behalf of the emperor and the state of Chu. Thank you for saving his life!”

Hu Changlin hurriedly helped him straight up. He was still confused, he didn’t know what to say. He always knew that Hu Feng’s ident.i.ty would not be simple, but he didn’t expect it to be like this.

Seeing the look on his face, Dongfang Mu smiled and said, “Alright! This is great. How long has it been since Qi Yunshan has been so lively? Starting today, we are a family.”

Zhao Lan and Hu Changlin still couldn’t believe all these. Her daughter suddenly became the Young Lady of a Marquis, while Hu Changlin’s son became an Imperial Prince… …
