Chapter 378: She Doesn’t Have the Guts!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Chu Zai frowned slightly. “The Third Prince of Beixiao? Didn’t Imperial Father choose him to marry Yu Yunxi?”

Consort Mu quickly said coquettishly, “Your Majesty, Yu Yunxi is unruly. If we allow her to marry the Third Prince of Beixiao, it’ll be troublesome.”

“Troublesome?”

“That’s right. She obviously harbors ill intentions toward us. If we allow her to marry the Third Prince of Beixiao, who knows if she’ll instigate the Third Prince and plot against Xichu?” Consort Mu said with a scoff.

Chu Zai’s expression darkened. “She doesn’t have the guts! She’s just a woman. Do you think she’ll have a say in Beixiao?”

Despite his words, Chu Zai felt uneasy. After all, although Yu Yunxi was a woman, he knew that she was even more capable than his princes. Thinking of this, his mood worsened.

‘Since she’s able to gain Imperial Father’s favor, she may be capable of gaining the Third Prince’s favor. What if she manages to convince the Third Prince of

Beixiao to start a war for her? After all, the Emperor of Beixiao values the Third Prince the most… If nothing goes wrong, it’s likely that the Third Prince will become the next Emperor of Beixiao.’

Chu Zai’s expression grew even darker when he thought of this, and his aura turned gloomy immediately.

Sensing the change in Chu Zai’s mood, Consort Mu knew she had successfully convinced him. She quickly struck while the iron was hot, saying, “Your Majesty, if Zhihe marries into the imperial family of Beixiao, she’ll definitely do her best to help Xichu since she respects and cares about you a lot…

Chu Zai nodded. He knew his daughter cared about him and would help him.

Consort Mu lowered her voice and continued to say, “Although the engagement was set by the Emperor Emeritus, no matter what they have yet to marry. Many things can happen before then…

Consort Mu trailed off. Although she did not finish her words, Chu Zai naturally understood her meaning. It was not difficult to ruin the marriage.

“Your Majesty, the state banquet is in a few days. At that time, the envoys from various countries will be in attendance. The Third Prince of Beixiao will be in attendance as well. We can deal with this matter at that time,” Consort Mu said softly.

Chu Zai’s heart softened when he saw Consort Mu’s gentle appearance. He nodded and said, “Indeed, the state banquet is in a few days. I’ve received reports that the envoys are very close to the capital. In fact, they’ll start arriving tomorrow onward. With so many people in attendance, we have to make sure that the state banquet is perfect…

“Your Majesty, don’t worry. The Empress and I have been preparing for this since two months ago. Nothing will go wrong,” Consort Mu said gently.

“Alright. It’s thanks to your and the Empress’ hard work,” Chu Zai said as he pulled Consort Mu into his arms.

Jealousy flashed in Consort Mu’s eyes when she heard Chu Zai thanking the Empress as well. However, she quickly hid her emotions.

‘Sooner or later, I’m going to pull that b*tch down from her throne…’

Chu Zai said, “As for the matter regarding the Third Prince of Beixiao, you can do as you see fit. It’s best if you can get him to take the initiative to propose a marriage to Zhihe. You also have to make sure you don’t cause any trouble for Xichu. ”

“Yes, Your Majesty. I promise to deal with this matter well,” Consort Mu said firmly as she lowered her gaze.

In Consort Mu’s opinion, it was not hard to win a man’s heart. After all, she had successfully seduced the Emperor with various means for more than twenty years. Even the Empress could not compare to her position in the Empress’ heart. For this reason, she was confident that her daughter would also defeat

Yu Yunxi.

Hongyi Palace.

Just as Yu Yunxi arrived, she suddenly sneezed.

The old nanny asked nervously, “Eldest Princess, did you catch a cold? Do you need me to summon an imperial doctor for you?”

Yu Yunxi calmly replied, “No need. I’m a doctor, and I know my own body.”

‘There’s a folklore that says that if you sneeze for no reason, it means that someone’s plotting against you..

Yu Yunxi was just about to walk into the main hall when someone helped Consort Hong out.

Consort Hong looked at Yu Yunxi as she said worriedly, “Yunxi, you’re finally here. I was worried that you’d suffer in the palace.”

‘Suffer? Is she referring to that incident with Grandfather? As expected, everyone knows about it. In any case, what’s her motive?’

Yu Yunxi’s eyes glinted coldly. She quickly lowered her head to hide her thoughts before she said softly, “Consort Hong, I’m fine. I heard you’re not feeling well. May I ask how you feel now?”

Immediately after, Consort Hong began to cough, and her face turned very pale.

Yu Yunxi could tell that Consort Hong was not pretending to be sick.

Consort Hong was just about to speak when Yu Yunxi helped her to sit down and check her pulse. After a moment, her eyes shone with unknown emotions. ‘Consort Hong’s health seems to be worse than I’d imagined…’

At this time, Consort Hong gently pulled Yu Yunxi’s hand away. She shook her head and said, “This is an old problem. Even the imperial doctors are helpless. You might not be able to do anything…”

Yu Yunxi replied calmly, “Although this is an old problem, you should still pay attention to your health, Consort Hong. Try not to catch a cold again. You also have to keep calm. Don’t be agitated…

“Eldest Princess, do you have a way to treat Consort Hong’s chronic illness?” the old nanny asked anxiously.

“My knowledge is superficial compared to that of my mother. I can’t do anything about the illness as well,” Yu Yunxi said. She looked at Consort Hong before she continued to say, “I’m sorry, Consort Hong.”

“You don’t have to apologize. This is fate,” Consort Hong said, shaking her head.

After that, Consort Hong began to chat with Yu Yunxi. In short, each word and sentence seemed to express her concern about Yu Yunxi’s life in the capital.

“Thank you for your concern, Consort Hong. I’ve already familiarized myself with the capital so I have no problems,” Yu Yunxi said lightly.

Consort Hong held Yu Yunxi’s hand, patting the back of it as she said with a smile, “That’s good. By the way, the state banquet will be held in a few days.

Envoys from various countries will be in attendance at that time, including the Third Prince of Beixiao. He’s your fiance so you must get to know him…’ 𝒻𝓇𝘦𝘦𝘸𝘦𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝑚

‘The Third Prince of Beixiao?’

Yu Yunxi was briefly stunned. After a beat, she finally remembered that she had a fiance. Her head began to ache immediately. She no longer paid attention to what Consort Hong said after that. free(w)ebnovel(.)com

Yu Yunxi was still in a daze when she finally left.

Seeing the expression on Yu Yunxi’s face, Meng Xia and Qian Qing were naturally worried.

“Eldest Princess, are you okay?”

Yu Yunxi said, looking helpless, “I’m fine. It’s just that the matter regarding the Third Prince of Beixiao is giving me a headache.”

After all, she already had a husband and son, but she was still engaged to another person.

‘What a mess… Nonetheless, this isn’t fair to the Third Prince of Beixiao.. I have to find a chance to speak to Grandfather about this matter and give an explanation to Beixiao…’
