Quick Transmigration: The Supporting Character Just Wants to Die a Natural Death

Yao Feiran snorted coldly, and Chen Zhaoche shrank his neck. Over the years, he had become more and more afraid of this younger sister. He couldn't beat her in a fight, and his father and mother protected her.

Seeing his expression, Yao Feiran suddenly lost interest. Since Lu Shuyun would choose to annul the engagement anyway, she decided to let him be.

Generally speaking, among princes his age, apart from the fourth prince, few are clean. Most of them see women as tools, and as long as they don't go too far, the emperor won't interfere.

However, since his fiancée is Lu Shuyun, he needs to be even more careful.

"I have no desire to marry Miss Lu. There's nothing I can do now. If I were the emperor, I wouldn't let the Lu family be so arrogant."

"If you want the Lu family to lose power, then you yourself must be a wise ruler, have the ability to recognize talent, and find a general who can suppress the Wen Kingdom." Yao Feiran mocked, "Do you have such abilities? Anyone who takes a liking to you is blind."

Chen Zhaoche: "......."

After being ridiculed by Yao Feiran, Chen Zhaoche was only down for a while. He was already used to being mocked by his younger sister, and he was indeed inferior to her in everything.

Seeing his expression, Yao Feiran didn't say anything more. She continued to follow the same pace, constantly searching for capable people in the world, and then, through her maternal grandfather's connections, training them and sending them into the military and the imperial court. She entrusted her maternal grandfather with the methods of making glass and soap, allowing the Xiao family to quickly accumulate initial capital.

A few years later, even with the Lu family's suppression, Yao Yan had already begun to distinguish himself on the frontier, and Chen Zhaoche was almost seventeen years old, about to marry Lu Shuyun, and was also named Crown Prince by the emperor.

Under the influence of Consort De's teachings, Chen Zhaoche had no choice but to treat Lu Shuyun well and dared not cause any trouble.

However, a few days later, Cuihuan, Yao Feiran's head palace maid, brought a message: "Miss Lu seemed to have fainted from a high fever a few days ago. She woke up this morning and said she wants to see the Empress Dowager."

The request to see the Empress Dowager is probably about dissolving the engagement, and Chen Zhaoche is about to lose face again.

Yao Feiran didn't tell Chen Zhaoche, since he was going to have to go through this anyway.

As expected, the Empress Dowager summoned Chen Zhaoche, and Yao Feiran also went with Consort De to watch the excitement.

As soon as they entered the Empress Dowager's palace, they heard Lu Shuyun say, word by word, "Your Majesty, I am unwilling to marry His Highness the Crown Prince. I hope Your Majesty will rescind your decree."

"What happened?"

The Empress Dowager was also puzzled. Chen Zhaoche hadn't made any mistakes over the years, and his studies were pretty good. Why was he being annulled?

In the original story, Consort De only watched coldly when the engagement was annulled. This time, her face turned ashen. Chen Zhaoche was her son and the Crown Prince. How could he be annulled in public? Her eyes turned cold.

Chen Zhaoche was initially surprised, but then became even more furious. As a man, he also had his pride. He had been publicly jilted. He didn't like Lu Shuyun, but he was forced to accept it. He had never done anything to wrong her. What did Lu Shuyun take him for? Someone she could summon and dismiss at will?

Consort De spoke up, "I wonder what wrong the Crown Prince did to cause Miss Lu to break off the engagement. If it was the Crown Prince's fault, then breaking off the engagement is justifiable. But if the Crown Prince is innocent, isn't Miss Lu going too far?"

Yao Feiran watched the show from the sidelines. In the original plot, Lu Shuyun broke off the engagement with evidence that Chen Zhaoche had kept a mistress outside the palace, and that mistress was Song Zhiyue, the daughter of a disgraced official, who was originally a courtesan.

However, this time, with the guidance of Consort De and Yao Feiran, Chen Zhaoche did not let the lack of family affection cause him to play around with those sycophantic playboys outside. In the end, he did not run into Song Zhiyue and was completely controlled by her.

Lu Shuyun's face turned pale. After awakening her memories of her past life, she had been thinking of using him as leverage, but after investigating, she found that the woman had not been taken away by Chen Zhaoche at all, and she couldn't come up with a reason for it.

Although the Lu family wields immense power, she cannot act so unreasonably, otherwise her reputation will be completely ruined.

But when she recalled the tragic scene of the Lu family being executed in her previous life, she wished she could skin Chen Zhaoche alive and tear him apart to vent her hatred.

"Your Highness, it was my recklessness that led me to this." Lu Shuyun stammered, unable to explain herself, and could only grit her teeth and admit her mistake.

This time, the attempt to back down failed. Lu Shuyun returned to the Lu residence heartbroken. Her mother hugged her but didn't say anything accusatory: "Yun'er, if you don't want to marry, your mother will find a way for you. Don't worry."

Lu Shuyun recalled the tragic state of the Lu family as if it were a nightmare. She would never allow Chen Zhaoche to become emperor, nor would she allow Chen Zhaoche to use her to harm the Lu family.

.......

Since the engagement wasn't successfully annuled this time, Lu Shuyun will definitely not give up and will most likely do something to Chen Zhaoche.

Consort De was furious. Upon returning to the palace, she flew into a rage: "The Lu family has gone too far! What do they take Zhao Che for? Does the Lu family look down on the royal family? His Majesty has been too lenient with the Lu family."

Yao Feiran ran over to comfort her, saying, "Mother, don't be angry. Be careful, walls have ears."

Consort De calmed down after hearing her daughter's words, but she became increasingly disgusted with Lu Shuyun. Lu Shuyun had taken a liking to Zhao Che in the first place, and now she wanted to break the contract without her consent.

Yao Feiran went to see Chen Zhaoche, who had gone to bed early. Knowing he was angry, Yao Feiran pulled back the covers.

Chen Zhaoche said speechlessly, "Fourth Sister, what are you doing? You even pulled back the man's blanket!"

"Men my ass, are you leaving the palace tomorrow?"

"Yes, my father sent me to study at the Hanlin Academy."

Yao Feiran didn't say anything more and turned to leave.

The following evening, after finishing his work at the Hanlin Academy, Chen Zhaoche happened to run into Zhou Ci, his study companion, the Empress Dowager's grand-nephew, and the second son of the Duke of Yue.

Zhou Ci said mysteriously to Chen Zhaoche, "Your Highness, I will take you to a place."

"Where?"

"Just come with me, I guarantee you'll have a great time."

As Zhou Ci spoke, he pulled Chen Zhaoche to the Jiaofangsi. Chen Zhaoche frowned slightly. He knew what kind of people were in the Jiaofangsi. Most of them were female relatives of officials who had committed crimes. While he hesitated, Zhou Ci pulled him to the Jiaofangsi.

The Jiaofangsi was considered a more upscale place than a brothel, but Chen Zhaoche and Zhou Ci, being of noble status, were welcomed inside by the person in charge.

"Wang, the Director of the Imperial Music Academy, this is the first time this distinguished guest has come to your place. Do not neglect him. You must select some beautiful women."

Wang Cheng wiped the sweat from his forehead and saw the four-clawed golden dragon on Chen Zhaoche's sleeve. He quickly said, "Of course, sir, please follow me."

Soon, the beauties entered one by one. The beauty in the middle wore a thin veil, but her figure was graceful and her dance skills were superb.

After drinking a few glasses of wine, Zhou Ci suddenly became interested: "Bring that woman over."
