The Hunter's Lively Wife-Chapter 2070: The Letter from King Chu

Su Yunjin held the letter, staring somewhat oddly at the maid and asked: "Did the person who delivered the letter not say who it was from?"

"No, that person left right after delivering the letter, didn’t say a word more, and even when I asked, he didn’t respond to me." The maid recalled the man who delivered the letter just now at the door, dressed in black, holding a sword, with a cold expression on his face. When she asked a question, the man looked as if he was going to eat her, scaring her so much that she dared not ask anything more.

The maid still felt frightened thinking about the man’s expression.

Seeing the maid looking clueless, Su Yunjin simply stopped asking her and waved her off, casually tearing open the envelope in her hand.

Inside the envelope, there was nothing but a piece of paper folded in half. Su Yunjin opened the folded paper and saw a paragraph written, "Yunnian, by the time you receive this letter, I should already be in Xiangcheng. When the emperor summoned me, he told me a story. I was surprised to learn that like the emperor, I also like someone but cannot have them. Perhaps you would never guess that the person the emperor likes is actually Madam Qin from your town. The emperor even resorted to using royal authority and military force to imprison her, but Madam Qin does not like the emperor. No matter what the emperor does, Madam Qin likes only Mr. Qin."

Surprised, Su Yunjin couldn’t help but wonder that she never thought the emperor would actually like Madam Qin!

Even more unexpected was that the emperor once imprisoned Madam Qin.

After the surprise, Su Yunjin continued reading the letter, "Yunnian, the emperor did so much but couldn’t win Madam Qin’s heart, so eventually, he let her go, allowing Madam Qin to be with that man. To love someone shouldn’t mean breaking her wings, nor should it involve threats and coercion. As long as you can be happy, I can allow you to be with him. I apologize for the pain I’ve caused you before, and it won’t happen again."

The handwriting of Prince Chu was also very beautiful. As Su Yunjin held the letter in her hands, she was still shocked by the fact that the emperor once liked Madam Qin. Unavoidably, Su Yunjin recalled the warning Madam Qin once gave her at the Prince Ning Residence.

Back then, Madam Qin had already seen through Prince Chu’s intentions for her and reminded her to keep her distance from Prince Chu.

At that time, Su Yunjin was already married. She felt that Madam Qin’s reminder was kind, but on second thought, how could a prince possibly be interested in a married woman like her? So Su Yunjin didn’t take Madam Qin’s warning to heart.

Thinking about it now, it was precisely because Madam Qin had experienced this before that she could immediately see through Prince Chu’s intentions.

The letter was not finished, and Su Yunjin continued reading, "Yunnian, leaving for Xiangcheng was my own choice, not forced by anyone. If I didn’t want to go, the emperor wouldn’t truly force me to that place. As for the bandits in Chu Territory, I know the whole plan by Ning Wang and them. Willingly, according to his and Prince Ning’s plan, I leave, not because I’m frightened, but to let you go and also to fulfill myself."

Amazed, Su Yunjin looked at the letter in her hand, not expecting Prince Chu to know everything, including that the bandits issue was deliberately exaggerated by Gu Ya and them, and that Gu Ya and Prince Ning planned to manipulate him into going to Xiangcheng.

Su Yunjin had thought the smooth implementation of the plan was due to the cleverness of Prince Ning and Gu Ya’s plan, never realizing that Prince Chu knew everything!
