Chapter 1653 The Dance of Fate
Lu Zhaoling chuckled as she watched Shen Xiangjun dancing energetically and gracefully.
"Don't talk nonsense, I've never laid a hand on you."
If you want to know what she did, it's that she threw out a little paper doll earlier, which tore the thread of fate apart and changed its direction.
If no one had stepped forward at that time, the marriage line would not have found a suitable candidate to bind with for the time being. Who told Yu Xu to run over there?
It's all fate that brought them together!
"It must be you. I admire the prince, and I've wanted to marry him since I was a child. Why am I like this now..."
It felt like two people were fighting in Shen Xiangjun's mind.
Both of them are her.
One of them said, "I have my heart set on the Prince of Jin, and I must marry him."
The other said, "Stop deceiving yourself. You know who you're thinking about right now. You stopped liking Prince Jin a long time ago. That was just your obsession. Now you've changed your mind."
The other person jumped up and down in a fit of rage, shouting, "Impossible! Impossible! I would never change my mind!"
"Don't you know what kind of person you are? You are clearly a very pragmatic person. You know that Prince Jin only has Lu Zhaoling in his heart and that he can't love you, so you let him go."
Shen Xiangjun felt like her head was about to explode. She couldn't understand why she had become like this, but she also knew very well that before tonight, all she could think about was Prince Jin. She also knew that this plan was originally intended to make her marry Prince Jin.
Watching Shen Xiangjun's behavior from the side, Sheng San Niangzi also found it very strange. She asked Lu Zhaoling with some puzzlement, "Master, what's wrong with her? Why is she dancing and can't stop? And her dancing isn't very good either."
From the perspective of Sheng San Niangzi, a woman, this dance was indeed only meant to please men and was not attractive at all.
Moreover, Shen Xiangjun's temperament wasn't suited to this kind of thing, making her jump look rather out of place. Madam Sheng San couldn't bear to watch and wanted to stop her from jumping any further.
Lu Zhaoling said, "I think her current state is somewhat related to the fact that she had already taken a liking to Zhou Shiyue when she was a baby."
Lu Zhaoling had previously heard the Emperor Emeritus mention that Shen Xiangjun had shown a strong interest in Zhou Shiyue during her first birthday celebration.
She felt a little strange.
Logically speaking, how could a child so young be attracted to Zhou Shiyue? At that age, other dazzling array of items should have been more likely to capture a child's attention.
Therefore, Lu Zhaoling kept this matter in mind.
She felt that the problem might be about to be solved.
At that moment, the pleasure boat suddenly rocked violently and tilted sharply.
The girls who were dancing finally stopped because they lost their balance and fell down in a heap.
Lu Zhaoling also grabbed Zhou Shiyue, but still pressed his head down with one hand, signaling him not to turn around, even though Zhou Shiyue was blindfolded and couldn't see.
Madam Sheng was puzzled again, "What exactly is down there? Why haven't they finished fighting after all this time?"
She also knew that Yin Yunting and the two envoys, Black and White, were in the water.
Just as Lu Zhaoling was about to speak, there was a sudden thud outside the boat, as if someone else had jumped aboard.
Before she could look, someone quickly walked in; it was Yin Changxing.
Seeing that Zhou Shiyue and Lu Zhaoling were both alright, Yin Changxing breathed a sigh of relief. He then looked at Shen Xiangjun and said to Lu Zhaoling, "Her marriage destiny has already been tied to someone else, so don't worry."
Lu Zhaoling said, "I know, Master, why did you come up here?"
Yin Changxing pointed to the back, where the cabin remained quiet, as if no one was there.
However, Lu Zhaoling and the others knew that there were definitely other people on this pleasure boat, and that these dancing women were also being controlled.
Their eyes are now vacant, and they have no consciousness of their own.
And the person who controls them is probably the owner of this pleasure boat.
Lu Zhaoling also really wants to see Luo Qiu now, to see if she is the one behind all this trouble.
Yin Changxing then looked at Zhou Shiyue.
"That horse must have been treated with some special drug. Is the prince unable to move his legs now?"
Lu Zhaoling reached out and pinched Zhou Shiyue's leg, asking, "Do you feel anything? I didn't sense any life-or-death calamity or ominous sign on him, so it shouldn't have much of an impact on his leg."
Zhou Shiyue took a moment to assess the situation and said, "Yes, I really couldn't walk before, but I'm recovering now. I guess the effects of the medicine are gradually fading."
"But the talismans on my body have already been activated. Is there something dangerous on this ship?"
Zhou Shiyue's eyes were covered, so he couldn't see whether the fog in the boat had dissipated or not. However, since Lu Zhaoling hadn't said anything, he guessed that it had probably already dissipated.
Lu Zhaoling said, "Those before were all aimed at you alone. They were triggered by the evil aura on the horse. You touched that horse, so it was dangerous to you but had no effect on us. But now it's all over."
Lu Zhaoling knew, of course, that the talismans on his body had been activated; she had already sensed it just now.
That's why she rushed to Zhou Shiyue's side. Now that she's here, she can definitely protect Zhou Shiyue.
Shen Xiangjun was a little dizzy after falling and being pinned down by several women.
The women fell unconscious and are now motionless.
After regaining consciousness, Shen Xiangjun pushed them away forcefully and struggled to her feet. She looked at Lu Zhaoling, then at Yin Changxing.
Then he looked down at his wrist, and frantically scratched at it, not knowing what he was grabbing.
Seeing her actions, Lu Zhaoling raised an eyebrow and said, "It seems you know you have a marriage line on your wrist, but what you're doing is useless. You can't touch it at all. Besides, that marriage line has already bound you to a good marriage. Are you happy?"
Upon hearing Lu Zhaoling's words, Shen Xiangjun's expression changed drastically.
She glared at Lu Zhaoling and said, "You figured it out? And you still say you didn't do anything wrong? Hurry up and untie me!"
Shen Xiangjun's face turned deathly pale; she had no desire to marry Yu Xu.
She rushed to Lu Zhaoling and pleaded, "Miss Lu, do you have a way to untie this marriage knot for me? I won't marry Prince Jin, okay? As long as you help me untie it, I promise I'll stay far away from the prince from now on!"
Shen Xiangjun raised her hand and said, "I swear, believe me, help me untie this, and I really swear I will never bother Prince Jin again!"
Lu Zhaoling looked her over and said, "You're really strange. What's wrong with marrying Yu Xu that makes you so afraid?"
