I can only blame the sound of the wine glass breaking being too loud, or maybe Zhao Chengji's men were using too much force.
In short, the music in Wangyue Tower stopped for a long time due to this loud noise, and finally the musicians slowly recovered from the shock.
"Xiao Changfeng..." Zhao Chengji said, "Are you too disrespectful to me and Princess Shunyang?"
"My noble prince invited you here, but you dare to leave just like that?"
Xiao Changfeng frowned, "Your Highness, if there is something serious, we can tell the court that there is no need for you to spend money to invite me to Wangyue Tower."
"You said I invited you to Wangyue Tower. Can this be serious business?"
Zhao Chengji sneered again and again, "I want you to agree to marry Princess Shunyang today, do you hear that?"
Xiao Changfeng also turned cold, "His Royal Highness, have you forgotten that Princess Nianyun and I have been granted a marriage by the emperor and will be married soon?"
"Then you can refuse this marriage," Zhao Chengji said. "Didn't you reject the marriage arranged by the Queen Mother over and over again?"
"The Queen Mother also wanted to betroth Princess Nianyun to you, but you repeatedly refused. Now that the Emperor has betrothed Princess Nianyun to you, do you agree?"
"I know you are unwilling in your heart. Please hurry up and ask the emperor to cancel the marriage!"
"Your Highness, I was really unwilling to marry Princess Nianyun before. I didn't know Princess Nianyun at that time, but since I met Princess Nianyun, I have changed my mind. I sincerely want to marry Princess Nianyun."
"No, you have to cancel it. If you don't cancel the marriage, how can you marry Shunyang!"
"Your Highness, the so-called forceful melon is not sweet, why are you so aggressive?"
Xiao Changfeng said, "I think it's because you want to marry Princess Nianyun against ethics and morals, so you are trying every possible means to embarrass me here!"
"I don't care what you say, you must marry Shunyang anyway. I tell you, I am the prince and the one who will inherit the throne in the future. If you dare to disobey me, you will be disobeying the future emperor..."
"Your Highness, if you speak like this in a place like Wangyue Tower, aren't you afraid that people will talk too much and your words will reach the ears of the Emperor?"
"Since I dare to say it, I'm not afraid..."
Zhao Chengji said, "There are only three of us here, and I will kill anyone who dares to leave!"
"Your Highness, I won't do it, you believe me!"
At this time, Shunyang was frightened by the fierce quarrel between the two.
Before leaving the palace, the prince only said that he was helping her to meet Xiao Changfeng, so she came excitedly.
Unexpectedly, the barely harmonious atmosphere between Zhao Chengji and Xiao Changfeng in the past disappeared and was replaced by anger and quarrels.
Moreover, she thought that the prince created this opportunity for her so that she could express her feelings to Xiao Changfeng, but she didn't expect that the prince would say it directly to Xiao Changfeng so rudely.
This time, it was as if she asked the prince to force the marriage for her.
Shunyang stood there speechless, complaining secretly in her heart. This was different from what the prince said before he called her out!
"Your Highness the Crown Prince...Little Marquis Xiao...please stop arguing!"
She spoke helplessly, trying to stop the quarrel between the two.
Unfortunately, it has no effect at all.
The two of them have reached a point where their faces are red and their ears are red, and the next step may be a tense situation.
Shunyang regretted it so much that she didn't look at the almanac when she went out today. This was a day when Zhao Chengji went crazy, so she shouldn't have followed him out.
Because the quarrel between the two people gradually became louder, and the silk and bamboo music played intermittently downstairs, people in other private rooms wanted to see who was quarreling through the thin curtain, which made them have a hard time in Wangyue Tower.
At this time, Shunyang finally couldn't bear it anymore. She stepped forward and grabbed Zhao Chengji's sleeve, "Your Highness, please calm down. This is Wangyue Tower, there are many people and many eyes..."
Zhao Chengji glared at Xiao Changfeng angrily, "Xiao Changfeng, you'd better restrain your arrogant attitude."
"Although you and I have cooperated in Mobei, the victory of the war is all due to my contribution. You are just a dog who has to obey the command of this prince..."
"That's enough, His Royal Highness, what's wrong with you today? Why do you say everything to others?"
Shunyang pulled him and said, "I remembered that there is something else going on in the Queen Mother's palace. I have to go back as soon as possible. Prince, please send me back as soon as possible!"
After saying that, she pulled Zhao Chengji hard again, and finally Zhao Chengji followed Shunyang out of the private room.
The moment he went out, Shunyang felt so aggrieved that he wanted to cry.
How much she wanted to stay with Xiao Changfeng, but if Zhao Chengji continued to scold him, and this matter spread to the palace, she would be the first to be affected.
Those who know will know that this is the extension of the dispute between the two in the court. Those who don't know, think that she hates being married so much that she brought the prince to force her to marry!
Seeing the tear that Shunyang shed before going out, Xiao Changfeng was not moved at all. He sat on the chair, his anger turned into strength, and finally he crushed the tea cup in his hand.
At this time, the door of the box opened again.
Xiao Changfeng said without turning around, "Isn't it enough that Your Highness the Crown Prince has insulted me enough?"
At this time, a slightly gloomy voice said, "It seems that I heard it right. It was His Royal Highness who was quarreling here just now!"
Hearing that the voice was not that of Zhao Chengji, Xiao Changfeng turned around sharply.
Then I saw a slightly fat but elegant man standing at the door.
"Sixth Prince?!" Xiao Changfeng hurriedly stood up and saluted, "I didn't expect you to be at Wangyue Tower too."
"What a coincidence," Zhao Chengli said, "I'm still next door to you."
Upon hearing Zhao Chengli's words, Xiao Changfeng's expression changed slightly, and then he said, "It's a joke to call the Sixth Prince a joke!"
"I have nothing to laugh at you, I just feel sorry for you."
Xiao Changfeng looked at Zhao Chengli with a hint of gratitude, "The Sixth Prince is the first to say this to me."
"Oh, I don't believe I'm the first person to say this to you. You suffered so much in Mobei and performed so well."
"The former General Murong, the current His Highness the Crown Prince, they..."
Seeing Xiao Changfeng's face becoming more silent as he spoke, Zhao Chengli shut his mouth in time and did not continue the topic.
He comforted, "Little Xiaohou, you are very powerful. This is something everyone in the government and the public knows. Don't lose yourself just because of the prince's momentary barbarism!"
