Wicked Prince’s Abandoned Wife - C246

However, it could not escape the eyes of Yun Ruo Lu.

No matter how rich Jia Mu Fan was, he was still a merchant. If he could obtain this thumb ring and deploy a huge army of one hundred thousand, then it wouldn’t be a joke.

This meant that he had a portion of the military power. That means he can be more than a businessman. Furthermore, all countries had laws. Businessmen were not allowed to gather troops without permission, otherwise if they were found out by the imperial government, they would be punished with the crime of conspiring against others and exterminating their entire family.

“Alright, then let’s begin.”

Yun Ruo was playing mahjong, but it was unknown if it was because she was sitting too close to Scarlet Jade, but it was unknown whether it was intentional or not. She even moved a little to Blue Cloud’s side.

Just like that, they fought a mahjong. Surprisingly, it turned out to be Blue Cloud Hu. Yun Ruo Lu felt that this was a bit inconceivable. She was the one who brought the mahjong here, how could it be Blue Cloud Hu? However, thinking about the fact that she really wasn’t good at mahjong, she sighed in her heart.

“Alright, I’ve won. Now, all your belongings belong to me.” Lan Yun said. She then kept the ring, feather, and Yun Ruo Lu’s concealed weapon.

“I’ll take my leave first.” Lan Yun said.

“Wait, you want to leave after winning? We still need to fight one more time. ” Jia Mu Fan seemed to not let Lan Yun leave.

“Alright, I don’t mind fighting, but, what are you betting with me?” Lan Yun said.

“I have another treasure.” Yun Ruo looked around, and saw another embroidered box. Inside the box was another phoenix feather.

“Didn’t they say that there’s only one in this world?” Yun Ruo Lu could not help but ask.

However, he saw that Scarlet Jade’s expression was not looking good.

“Hahaha, why is there only one? There’s more than one phoenix feather here. Let me tell you, there’s a total of two of them. Jia Mufan said.

“Why do you say that?” Yun Ruo did not understand.

“The phoenix appears. The dragon fountain is altered, and the mountains are changed.” Scarlet Yu said nine words.

Yun Ruo Lu immediately went silent. The phoenix was saying that the phoenix had appeared, meaning the phoenix’s feathers. The dragon fountain also meant that the dynasty would die, and the rivers and mountains would change hands.

If a phoenix feather didn’t mean anything, then the phoenix feather had a total of two feathers. If one wanted to know which part of the phoenix feather represented him or her the most, then these two feathers were exactly.

If all of them appeared this time, it would mean that the entire mountain and river region would be in turmoil. If this news were to spread, the Yuchi Kingdom would probably be in a state of unrest.

If someone was causing a ruckus, it would not be a good omen.

“I only have one pill like this left. Twisting it and sprinkling it on the wound will reduce the healing time by half.” Yun Ruo said leisurely.

“Alright, then I’ll make a wager with this ring.” Lan Yun said.

“I will bet half of the Tiger Tally.” Scarlet Jade smiled and took out half of the Tiger Tally.

In the beginning, Yun Ruo You didn’t know that the thumb ring could move one hundred thousand men, but she did know what the Tiger Tally was for.

Not only that, but the generals of every country only recognized symbols and not people. This Tiger Tally should be around half of the generals in charge of the troops and half of the monarchs. If only one of them was here, he would be able to move the three armies.

He must be crazy, right? Yun Ruo Lu thought to herself, this was like him using the entire Azure Emperor Kingdom as his wager. However, these people really dared to continue fighting.

Yun Ruo Lu continued to play mahjong, but just when Yun Ruo Lu thought that the Goddess of Luck was going to look after her, someone shouted out before her: “Stupid.”

This person was Scarlet Jade. Yun Ruo Lu almost fainted, it was rare for her to be this excited!

Following which, Jia Mu Fan and Lan Yun’s items were taken by him.

“I wonder if young master Jia will still fight?” Scarlet Jade said with a beaming smile.

“I’m not fighting anymore.” Jia Mufan said, “Right now, I don’t have anything with me that I can take out. It’s just that this time, Crown Prince Yingyu has really broadened my horizons.” Jia Moyan directly stated her identity.

Of course, this should be the first time he found out about Scarlet’s identity, just by taking out the first item.

“Hahaha …” Scarlet laughed.

“However, I would like to ask Crown Prince Red Jade a question. If I win these two mahjong, will you let me leave this place alive?” Jia Mufan said.

“I don’t think I need to answer this question.” Scarlet Jade said.

“Why?”

“I don’t think you can win.” Scarlet Jade said.

Jia Mufan suddenly laughed: “I really can’t win against Crown Prince. Haha, I won’t be buying this mahjong [1]. This Phoenix Feather is also a hot potato to me. To lose to you today, I am convinced.” Jia Mufan said.

Yun Ruo Lu felt that she was basically betting on nothing. What they were betting on were all very precious things, and what she was taking wasn’t that valuable. If she won, she would really feel embarrassed.

“Young master Jia, if you feel that this mahjong restaurant is unobtainable, you can open a branch elsewhere.” Yun Ruo said leisurely, “I know a few ways to play. We can’t just play mahjong in a branch store.”

“Oh?” As expected of a merchant, Jia Mu Fan’s eyes instantly lit up.

“Could it be that Young Master Yun is the owner of this mahjong hall?” he asked again.

Yun Ruo Lu shook her head and said, “I happen to be familiar with these things, but you opened these mahjong restaurants that are considered my shares, because there’s more than one way to fight mahjong. However, only I know of these ways.” Yun Ruo said leisurely.

“Hahaha, good, I’ll count it as your share. Today, I’ll agree to it. Later, I’ll bring out the contract. Tell me, what other methods do you have?” After that, Yun Ruo Lu made an appointment with Jia Mu Fan to meet him here next time.

Jia Mufan naturally wouldn’t suspect Yun Ruo Lu. He knew that she was from the Imperial Family. Even if she wasn’t from the Imperial Family, she was still a member of the Imperial Palace. He had a great relationship with Yuchi Xuan, and he wouldn’t have rashly refused her. Otherwise, he might have offended the Emperor.

“If that’s the case, then I’ll head back to the palace first. I’ve obtained my things.” Lan Yun seemed very happy that she had obtained the phoenix feather. However, she then said to Scarlet Jade, “Can you exchange this pill for another phoenix feather of yours?”

He took out a medicinal pill.

“What is the use of this pill?” Scarlet Jade curiously asked as he looked at the pill he took out. He knew that he was an alchemist.

“It’s nothing, just eating it can make a woman’s skin more rosy, and make her color better.” Lan Yun replied simply.

“Sure.” Then, Chiyu gave the feather to Lan Yun.

After Lan Yun left, only Chi Yu and Yun Ruo Lu remained in the room. By the time Yun Ruo Lu realized this problem, it was already too late because her heart was racing.

Chiyu said to her, “This is for you.” He gave the pill to Yun Ruo Lu.

“This is yours, you take it.” Yun Ruo said leisurely.

“You know he’s the number one alchemist in the entire Kingdom of Lan Xue. I don’t need this either, I’m not a woman.” Scarlet Jade said.

Yun Ruo Lu felt that she could not accept Lu Li’s offer without doing anything, so she did not take the scarlet jade’s item.

“Since you don’t want it, I’ll swallow it.” After Scarlet Jade finished speaking, she placed the pill into her mouth.

Yun Ruo Lu was a little shocked. Isn’t this Scarlet Jade too extreme? She thought that this was clearly a pill that could enhance one’s beauty … What’s he eating? Do men need beauty?

While she was still in shock at his actions, she suddenly felt a strong kiss on her mouth, and then his tongue ripped open her lips and invaded her territory. She felt a pill being delivered into her mouth, and she accidentally swallowed it.

Moreover, the other party’s kiss had also caused her to be a little mesmerized. She had wanted to push Scarlet Jade away, but she discovered that she was simply unable to do so. Because this feeling was very familiar to her.

She did not know why she thought of Yuchi Chen. She thought of her children, and for a split-second, tears flowed down her face.

Chiyu immediately stopped kissing, as if she had done something wrong. “Ruo Lu, what’s wrong with you?”

“Nothing, I just thought of one person.” Yun Ruo said leisurely.

Scarlet Jade looked at Yun Ruo Lu wiping her tears. He really wanted to help her wipe her tears, but he realized that he didn’t have the courage to do so at the moment. He felt that he was the cause of her grief.

“He must be someone very important to you.” Scarlet Jade said.

“She’s already dead. No one can replace him …” After saying that, Yun Ruo Lu rushed out of the door, she did not know if these words were meant for her or for Scarlet Jade.

“Yun Ruo Lu, how can you easily fall in love with someone?” When Yun Ruo Lu went out the door, she acted like she wanted to escape, and sat in a deserted alley behind the gambling den.

She dried her eyes slowly and walked out of the alley.

In fact, there was a small window in the private room, which was facing that alley. While Yun Ruo Lu was crying, Scarlet Jade was standing there, looking at her.

He knew that her heart ached, but wasn’t it as well? He just wanted to tell her that he couldn’t tell her now, or else he would implicate her.

However, he knew that he had to protect her. This time, he definitely wouldn’t leave her alone. He had to bring her away. He had finally learned how to love only one person, if only one person at a time. This man was more important than his life. He just wanted to protect her.
