Chapitre 348: Some people are not meant to be together

Deng Hui wore a smile on her lips and stood up from the chaise. "Prince, your mother is not abusing her powers. I did what I was told. How can I let rumors spread about you? Do you know what people are saying? That you brought a girl from the village-" 

Nianzu cut the words of his mother in the middle. "I do not care what the other people are saying. I also do not believe these groundless rumors. I respect you, it does not mean that I let you decide on my life. And, do not even think about making me marry the woman of your desire. Father has given me the time to think about my marriage," Nianzu affirmed. "The other day Minister Gu Zhenya was here. I do not know what you are planning with him, but trust me, if I smell something wrong, I will request myself to dethrone you. So, work with utmost honesty," Nianzu's words appeared threatening to Deng Hui.
