Chapter 52: A Rumor that Went Wild (2)

Translator: Night Fury

Prince Li was hot-tempered, which was no secret among the powerful and the noble . However, with a more careful watch one could see that Prince Li, who just got married and should have been as pleased as punch, now had an even worse temper . Getting out early in the morning and hearing people gossiping about that woman Ye Li should have made his day, but it didn't . He also found that wherever he went, people would give him strange looks intentionally or otherwise they would shut up at once and change the subject to something else . Even when drinking tea in the teahouse he could feel eyes on him while those who were shooting him looks thought themselves concealed their looks quite well . That woman Ye Li got into trouble and the one that ought to have been laughed at should have been Mo Xiu Yao! Why did he have the feeling that he was the one that was laughed at?

Most people of the capital were good and honest .

Therefore, when they saw this younger blood brother of the emperor, though they knew they couldn't afford to offend him, they shot him looks full of contempt .

Tut! What kind of person was he! He not only broke off an engagement with the girl for no reason at all and he couldn't bear to see her lead a good life as well . Let alone he harmed her reputation in the past and at the moment he started such a malicious rumor . If it were a girl from an ordinary family, she would have been forced to end her life . For a person like Mo Jing Li, though he was a member of the royal family, the world had a more general name for him: a scumbag .

"P . . . Prince . . . " The servant by Mo Jing Li's side was quite scared because of the Prince's low spirits .

"What the hell was all that about?" Mo Jing Li asked, grinding his teeth .

One of the guards looked around and sadly found himself the one closest to the Prince . Other guards already took a few steps away from the Prince . Trembling with fear, he replied: "You . . . Your Highness, everyone's been talking about what happened to Ye . . . the third miss of Ye Family . "

"For god's sake I know they are talking about that woman! But what does that have anything to do with me?!"They all looked at me like I was some scumbag and they couldn't think I was not aware of that! Shouldn't they laugh at and mock that woman and that good-for-nothing Mo Xiu Yao was cuckolded? (So you did realize that you were being a jerk, didn't you?)

"About that . . . Some people say, they say that since Your Highness can't stand that the third miss of Ye Family is happy and that you hate that she is going to get married happily soon and move to Prince Ding's Manor, and that you hate her for being rude to you at Chuxiang Pavilion before so that you started the rumor intentionally . . . err, to damage her re . . . reputation . . . " The guard, wanting to get the story across as quickly as possible, could hardly catch his breath, his face reddened . Hardly had he finished his words, he saw with horror that the Prince smashed the folding fan with the grip of his hands .

"What was that?" A murderous air appeared around Mo Jing Li . People who were passing by couldn't help but avoid him .

"Your . . . Your Highness . . . "I didn't start that, the people of the capital were talking about that . A secret grievance rose in his heart . Anyhow, the reputation of Prince Li's Manor hit a new low point after Prince Li fooled around with his fiancée's younger sister and didn't pay for the things he bought .

"Ah Li, Zheng-er, come right up . There are not many people up here . Let's sit outside . " A clear woman's voice saved the guard who was almost frightened to death . Seeing that the Prince immediately turned his eyes towards the stairs, the guard curved himself into a ball and went hiding at a safe corner even quicker .
