~ Goodbye Su Yuyi ~
Yue Wang couldn’t help but hold his breath, only to feel as if his heart was about to jump out of his chest, and his eyes couldn’t accommodate any other colors except Mu Yunyao: ”Yao’er...”
He leaned over and slowly approached her lips. The moment he touched it, it was as if fireworks were blooming in his mind, and each one was in the shape of a peony flower.
Mu Yunyao slightly closed her eyes, her fingers tightly grabbing onto the clothes on Yue Wang’s chest, her cheeks already dyed red.
Worried that the place was wrong, Yue Wang just tried it briefly and then embraced Mu Yunyao in his arms. ”Yao’er, the imperial censors in the court have been assigned to criticize our relationship. I wanted to take this opportunity to settle our marriage. I will find a suitable opportunity to enter the palace in the next two days and ask the Imperial Father to grant us a marriage.”
Mu Yunyao smiled sweetly and nodded after hearing this: ”Alright, I want to marry the Fourth Master as well.”
Living as a woman is not easy. It is not easy for her to meet someone and stay together wholeheartedly. Since fate has arrived, she will do her best to protect it.
After having dinner at Liyang Palace, Mu Yunyao’s heart was filled with joy. Looking at the surroundings, she felt it was even more gorgeous than usual.
Not long after returning to Yuhua Palace, Jin Qiao walked in quickly and said, ”Miss, a palace maid from Lenghua Palace has come to see you, saying that Su Yuyi wishes to meet you.”
Mu Yunyao’s smile faded. ”Su Yuyi? Go and send that palace maid away, and say that there is no need to see each other again now.”
“Yes.” Shortly after leaving, Jin Qiao walked back with an ugly expression. ”Miss, that palace maid was unwilling to leave. She even said that Su Yuyi had something important to report to you and that it was related to His Royal Highness Yue Wang.”
Yue Wang?
Mu Yunyao’s brows furrowed, thinking about the matter Madam Sun’s said before she died, and she couldn’t help but secretly wonder if Su Yuyi also knew about Yue Wang’s life experience: ”Change my clothes. I’ll go take a look at her.”
“Do we need to have the guards of Lenghua Palace transferred away in advance?”
“No need. Jin Lan, go and report to Imperial Concubine Qi that Su Yuyi from Lenghua Palace has requested to see me. Now that she is in charge of palace affairs, let her know first so as not to cause unnecessary misunderstandings. I went to my grandmother to report this, so that if anything happens to Su Yuyi after I leave Lenghua Palace, no one will blame me.”
“Yes.”
Deep in the Imperial Palace’s farthest northwest corner sits Lenghua Palace. No one lives near it all year, and the landscape around it is not well taken care of.
When Mu Yunyao arrived at the door, the gatekeeper quickly knelt and said, ”Greetings, Princess Wenxian.”
“Get up. I’m here to see Su Yuyi.”
“Imperial Concubine Qi has already given orders. Please do as you wish, Princess Wenxian. The servants and others are guarding the door. If Princess has any orders, just shout directly.”
Mu Yunyao stepped into the hall, and the light in the room immediately dimmed.
Su Yuyi lay on the bed. Her clothes were unchanged, and it was still the one that had been stained with blood before. At this moment, the blood had solidified and turned dark brown, and a strange smell had spread, which made Mu Yunyao frown.
“Su Yuyi, do you want to see me?”
Su Yuyi turned her head and saw Mu Yunyao. A hint of clarity flashed in her hazy eyes, saying, ”You’re here. I knew that as long as I told you that the matter was related to Yue Wang, you would definitely come over.”
“Speak, what do you know about His Royal Highness Yue Wang?”
“Hehe,” Su Yuyi suddenly chuckled softly. ”Why do you care so much about His Royal Highness Yue Wang? Back then, when you had just returned to the Su family, Eldest Brother Su Qingwu liked you so much. At that time, Yue Wang was just an impoverished prince without any achievements and was insignificant in the court. But you still chose him and ignored my elder brother. You should not have hated the Su family at that time, so why didn’t you choose my eldest brother who had a bright future?”
Upon hearing the name Su Qingwu, which she had almost forgotten, Mu Yunyao’s expression grew colder and colder: ”You’re wrong. I hated the Su family from the very beginning, and I also hate your elder brother Su Qingwu.”
Su Yuyi sneered but didn’t refute her words. She continued, ”I’m so regretful. My mother told me several times that I had to stay calm and walk forward step by step. I didn’t listen to her advice, which has led me to where I am today.”
“I’m not here for a casual chat. If you don’t tell me, then I’m leaving.”
“Mu Yunyao, you and I are enemies after all. Now that I’m down and out, you should be very happy, right? Why are you in such a hurry to leave?”
“You are wrong again. You see me as an enemy, but I see you as nothing. I have never seen you as a real opponent. Whether you’re down or not has nothing to do with me at all, not to mention your current appearance, there’s nothing worth seeing.”
“Hahaha, your mouth is truly vicious.” Su Yuyi slanted her eyes and stared at Mu Yunyao. A strange smile appeared on her lips, ”When my grandmother was sentenced to death, you went to the Su family. I think you should have known some things, such as the relationship between Yue Wang and the Emperor.”
“His Royal Highness Yue Wang is the fourth son of the Emperor. Apart from that, what other relationship could there be?”
“Are you flustered?”
“Looks like you have nothing to say. Since that’s the case, then I will take my leave.” After Mu Yunyao finished speaking, she turned and walked towards the door.
Su Yuyi said urgently, ”Yue Wang is not the Emperor’s biological son!”
Mu Yunyao stopped and turned around, ”You’re talking nonsense.”
“Stop pretending. There’s no one else here. Are you still not telling the truth?” Su Yuyi sneered, ”At that time, the Empress and the head of the Luo Family, Luo Kun, had a secret relationship. It was Princess Yide who helped her conceal this relationship. The Empress knew she was wrong and had no choice but to poison ten grown princes to death. She was sent to the Cold Palace on this charge for this crime. In order to survive, she did not tell the Emperor about the true origins of the child in her womb. That’s why the Emperor remembered their old relationship and only locked her up in the Cold Palace, not immediately executing her.”
“What a fantastic story you’ve made up. Within the Imperial Court, who didn’t know that the relationship between the Emperor and Grand Princess Yide was deep? Since the Grand Princess knew that the child within the Empress’s womb was not of royal lineage, wouldn’t she tell the Emperor?”
“Naturally, Grand Princess Yi De wouldn’t say it, because she hated the Emperor! The kind of sibling affection is all an illusion she deliberately created. She hates the Emperor for killing her consort, and hates the Emperor for not finding you back in time, so much so that she has to bear the pain of missing her daughter for dozens of years. Furthermore, on the surface, she is far away from the imperial power and doesn’t have the slightest intention to fight for power or profit. but in fact, she has been delusional about controlling Imperal Court! She borrowed the trust the Emperor had placed in her to protect Ning Junyue’s life, and then let him go to Western Guangdong to hone his skills, secretly develop his influence, and amass the accumulate of Yue Wang against the Emperor. That way, when he returns to the Imperial Court, he can use this hatred to overthrow the Emperor and take the throne himself!”
