C293 Royal Consort Request (2/2)
”I already have nothing, what is there to worry about?” Yun'er bitterly smiled.
”The Nan Family sent over their wedding notes. It's Lady Linglong and …” ”It's Young Master Nanyu's.” As the butler spoke, he passed the card to Yun'er. Yun'er's face paled.
She looked at the butler in disbelief, her voice trembling. ”This …” How was this possible? Didn't Linglong like the prince? ”
”The prince loathes those who try to harm his wife the most.” Lady Linglong also owes a debt of gratitude to the Nan Family, so this is the way the Nan Family has come up with … a way to protect Lady Linglong. ” The butler explained.
”What kind of joke is this!?” Nan Yu! That person killed my child, tricked me into taking everything away, and even … and wanted me to die for that woman. ”
The woman's face twisted as she said, ”How did he get his wish?”
The butler sighed as he saw the girl. He knew that this would be the result of his conversation with her. However, if he didn't tell her and she found out in the future, she would definitely blame him.
”The wedding banquet is set for one month from now. That is when the prince will return from his journey south. I presume that he is the one who wants the prince to go to the main marriage.” The butler continued.
Yun'er stood there dumbfounded, not saying a word.
”Yun'er, if you really want to take revenge, wangfei is the best choice. This is also why I was so thick-skinned and sent you here. That's all I have to say. Think about it a little more. ” After saying that, the butler turned around and entered the mansion. Only Yun'er was left standing at the door in a daze.
Yun'er had never thought that she would face such a choice. She had gradually become less resentful when she was by Mu Ru Yue's side these past few days.
But at this moment, the butler's words reminded her of her previous despair. A cold wind blew at the entrance of the street, causing the woman's eyes to regain their clarity.
She turned around and returned to the manor.
The carriage stopped in front of the Imperial Palace. Mu Ru Yue was directly brought to the imperial concubine's residence. Along the way, the woman was carrying Mu Ru Yue along a small path. Even when they saw him, they would speak vaguely, as if they were afraid that Mu Ru Yue would be found out.
This made Mu Ru Yue extremely puzzled.
However, it was because of this that Mu Ru Yue was able to see the scenery of the imperial palace's small roads. Compared to the delicacy of the main road, these paths were quieter and more casual.
They quickly arrived at the imperial concubine's courtyard.
It was as quiet and simple as ever. Compared to the grandeur of the empress dowager's palace, it was like two completely different worlds. At this moment, the imperial concubine was not waiting in the room as she had the first time.
Instead, he carried the chaise longue and waited in the courtyard. There was no one by her side, as if they were waiting for her. This made Mu Ru Yue even more puzzled.
When the imperial concubine saw Mu Ru Yue coming over, her eyes lit up. She then turned in Mu Ru Yue's direction and left.
”Greetings, Imperial Consort.” Mu Ru Yue said respectfully.
”There is no need for such formalities. I was forced to invite the wangfei here today. ” After speaking, the imperial concubine led Mu Ru Yue into the courtyard. She then said to the girl, ”Aunty, go guard outside. No matter who it is, don't let anyone inside.”
”Yes, Empress.” As the woman spoke, she went out to guard.
As for the imperial concubine, she pulled Murong Yue into her room. When Mu Ru Yue entered the palace and was pulled along with her, her heart sunk further.
Last time, the imperial concubine was still very calm, so how could she be like this today?
Just as Mu Ru Yue was wondering, the imperial concubine abruptly knelt down on the ground. Mu Ru Yue, who had been brash, hastily retreated as she glared at the imperial concubine. ”What are you doing?”
A look of worry appeared on the woman's elegant face when she heard this. She said, ”I would like to ask the wangfei to save my carefree life.”
