Chapter 593 - Each Peoples Plan, the Crown Princes Fate (2/2)

“What are you doing in the middle of the night? Off you go.” Feng Yulei walked in with a frown. He looked at the maidservant who had fallen to the ground in pain and waved his hand impatiently. His hand was much better than You Yue’e’s foot. There were bandages hung from his neck, making him look a little awkward.

Knowing that King Yan had something to say to Consort Yan, the young and old maidservants on both sides quickly helped the two kneeling on the ground to leave quietly. Even the injured maidservant did not dare to say anything more. She limped out of the courtyard with the help of others, and the gate closed gently.

“Let’s talk in the room.” Feng Yulei stopped You Yue’e from asking. He reached out a hand that was intact and helped You Yue’e up. The two helped each other walk into the room. You Yue’e contained her anger and tried her best to focus on another leg. She looked at the bandages around Feng Yulei’s neck and her expression softened.

Although she had not been comfortable since she married Feng Yulei, because Feng Yulei was always at home, the relations.h.i.+p between them was a little better than that between a normal couple. They depended on each other and cooperated with each other tacitly. It was obvious that the two of them had been walking holding each other like this these days.

One of them had her leg injured, while the other injured his hand. Helping each other was much better than moving himself!

The lamps in the room were on. Feng Yulei helped You Yue’e sit down on the couch. He turned around and opened the window, letting the cool breeze in. The room was cool.

“Your Highness, is there any news from my Eldest Brother?” You Yue’e asked softly. A hint of gentleness flas.h.i.+ng across his eyes as she looked at Feng Yulei. She picked up the teapot on the table, poured him a cup of tea, and pushed it over.

Feng Yulei returned to his seat and took a sip of the tea that You Yue’e handed him. He frowned and nodded. “Your elder brother said that the Crown Prince of the Southern Barbarian Lands is here and is living in King Xuan’s Manor. I heard that the Crown Prince is interested in marrying a princess. The Princess of the Southern Barbarian Lands who came with him wants to marry a prince.”

“What does it mean?” You Yue’e had a bad feeling. She frowned slightly. It seemed that none of this had anything to do with King Yan’s Manor.

“Your elder brother said that King Ning has planned to marry the Princess of the Southern Barbarian Lands as his legal consort.” Feng Yulei sighed. The Southern Barbarian Lands was indeed a good foreign aid. “I heard that not only King Ning, but also my elder brother has such an idea. Ling Rui’er exists in name only. It is for Ding General Manor’s honor that the imperial palace did not give her a direct death penalty.”

“You, you want it too?” You Yue’e asked in a trembling voice. She opened her mouth with a bitter look in her eyes.

“Yue’e, I don’t want to, so you’ll have to suffer. In the future, no matter whether it’s eldest brother or King Ning to take the throne, I will be a quiet and carefree prince, or they will leave a way out for us. At that time, you may be able to divorce me, so as not to implicate Mingguo Manor.”

Feng Yulei’s expression was grave but he still had a faint smile on his face. He reached out and patted You Yue’e’s hand to comfort her. But he looked down to hide the light in his eyes.

“No, Your Highness, I will not divorce you. Even if we die, we will still be together.” You Yue’e felt deeply grieved and her tears could not stop falling. She held Feng Yulei’s hand and refused to let go. Although she had heard that King Yan liked Ling Fengyan, You Yue’e had seen it that since they got married, Feng Yulei did not miss that woman at all. The manor was clean and he respected You Yue’e very much. You Yue’e really wanted to stand with him.

“But what could you do if you don’t do that? We still have a child. As long as you and the child can survive, it doesn’t matter to me.” Feng Yulei held You Yue’e’s hand and said in a choked voice. There was a sad smile on his face. “The royal family has always been like this. If I can’t take the throne, I’ll be a loser. But even if I’m doomed, I’ll protect you and our child.”

When You Yue’e was found out to be pregnant a few days ago, everyone in the manor was extremely happy.

“No, Your Highness, don’t leave us. Without you, how can we live?” You Yue’e retracted her hand and cried with her hands covering her face, as if she really saw Feng Yulei being taken to the execution ground.

“In the future, when I’m gone, I will let your elder brother protect you and our child. I’ve thought about it. A part of the property in the manor will be slowly transferred to your elder brother’s hand. After… we divorce, you will take the child away and take what I left to you from your elder brother. The property will be enough for you and the child for the rest of your lives.”

Feng Yulei’s eyes were red as well. He turned his head and wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes. He struggled to lift his head and explained the matter in detail.

It would be fine if he did not say that. You Yue’e could not bear to hear it any longer. When she thought that the child in her belly might be born without father, and that Feng Yulei would die at such a young age and they would be separated forever, her heart hurt as if it was burned.

How could it be? How could it be like this? No, she would not allow such a thing to happen. She did not allow the child to be born without his father.

“Your Highness, if I were to give up my position as legal consort, would you be able to marry the Princess of the Southern Barbarian Lands?” She had made up her mind. She bit her lips and wiped away her tears. Then, she looked at Feng Yulei and said firmly.
