"Things back then were too complicated and confusing. I only know some small clues, and I have already told you."
"As for my father, from what I know about him, he has no motive for killing, but I can't guarantee that he didn't kill your mother-in-law."
"So Chu'er, I can't tell you more."
"I was afraid that you would be disappointed, so I had no choice but to not see you."
Yu Nianchu was a little disappointed. He thought Xie Yu was just pretending to be sophisticated, but he didn't expect that even he knew about it.
Therefore, all the truth still lies in that palace.
She put down the mung bean cake in her hand and thanked Xie Yu again.
"I won't be disappointed. Your Highness has already helped me a lot."
Xie Yu responded and began to ask about what happened yesterday.
"Chu'er, you and Fu Zhao...do you have feelings for him?"
Yu Nianchu said straightforwardly, "Maybe there was in the past, but now, no, not to anyone."
She said those last few words to herself.
But Xie Yu also listened.
He thought to himself, no matter what, it was his unrequited love after all, there was no need to force it on Chu'er.
"Well, I may have misunderstood. I thought you two were a good match before."
The more he said this, the more the fire in Yu Nianchu's heart burned.
"Then Your Highness is really wrong. While doing your best for my daughter, shouldn't you ask me what I really want?"
"Otherwise, what's the difference between this and forced buying and selling?"
Xie Yu took advantage of the situation and asked, "Then what do you want?"
Yu Nianchu glanced at Xie Yu, but his eyes were too deep and she couldn't see the bottom of it at a glance, so she had to avoid it.
"Enter the palace."
Xie Yu immediately stood up and waved his sleeves, "No!"
"How old are you, how old is my father? Even if you want to avenge your mother, you can't be my father's concubine!"
"If you really want to find a backer in the palace, you might as well marry..."
Before the word "I" came out of his mouth, Xie Yu suddenly realized that he didn't seem to have much of a backer.
There is only the false name of a prince.
He was just a puppet established by his father to balance the forces within the court.
Xie Yu had never felt so unwilling.
He has been operating secretly for many years, and what he needs now is the opportunity, otherwise everything will come to nothing.
You may even lose your life.
So, how can he have the confidence to make a promise to Chu'er...
Who knows, Yu Nianchu directly added, "Why do you have to marry someone?"
"I want to become my own supporter step by step."
"Okay, Your Highness, it's getting late now, and Chu'er has to say goodbye."
As soon as Yu Nianchu got up, Xie Yu held her wrist.
"How is your injury? I asked Yunque to prepare some good medicinal materials for you and bring them back together later."
He still had a lot to say, but now that the words were on his lips, he couldn't speak.
Yu Nianchu answered very officially, without even looking back.
"Compared to Your Highness, I have only minor injuries."
"Your Highness, please rest well. My daughter will never go again. It's time for Dad to send someone to look for her."
As soon as Xie Yu let go of his hand, Yu Nianchu left, leaving him with only a cold and aloof figure.
He recalled Yu Nianchu's words carefully in his mind. She wanted to be his supporter and not marry anyone...
So, does she want to enter the palace and become a female official and follow her mother's path again?
It took Feng Yuan ten years to go from the lowest palace maid to her father's imperial attendant.
…
Yu Chengguang went back at noon. When he learned that Yu Nianchu hadn't come back yet, he didn't eat immediately, but went to Yu Shuen's room.
Now she is still grounded, but her food and clothing expenses are the same as Yu Nianchu's.
But as soon as Yu Chengguang entered, he still saw that Yu Shuen was quite haggard.
He waved his hand, and all the waiting people went down, leaving only the father and daughter.
Yu Shuen looked at him coldly and said in a hoarse voice, "The belt was made by Yu Nianchu."
"She caused me to lose my virginity to King Chengan, and she also killed my mother-in-law..."
"Dad, are you not only blind, but also blind in your heart?"
Yu Chengguang's smile hung on the corner of his mouth. After hearing these two words from Yu Shuen, the smile disappeared without a trace in an instant.
He sat on the stool with his sleeves rolled up and spoke seriously to Yu Shuen.
"Shu'er, are you still stubborn?"
"My father is not blind, but all of this is the result of you and Li's family."
"Now the retribution is on me, but I put all the fault on Chu'er?"
Yu Shuen smiled bleakly, and the tears on her face were dry and wet. She turned her head and buried her head in her arms, not wanting to see Yu Chengguang's face at all.
"Oh, you can think whatever you like."
"You have already forced my mother to death, are you still afraid of me?"
"It's pitiful that my grandma has been with you for so many years, but she didn't even have a funeral!"
"The day after she died, you engaged that little bitch? No wonder she was humiliated by the Fu family. This is all your retribution! You deserve it!!"
Yu Shuen said a lot of curses again. She was already extremely weak, but now that she said so many words, her head felt dizzy and she almost fainted.
It was only after Yu Chengguang supported her that Yu Shuen came to her senses.
He frowned and said word by word, "Shu'er, I know that I have been sorry for you over the years, but I have tried my best to make up for it."
"My father has already discussed it with King Chengan. In three days, my father will send you to Prince Chengan's palace in person."
"Live a good life with His Highness from now on and stop being so stubborn, okay?"
Yu Shuen was shocked, "Your Highness is still willing to marry me? Doesn't he blame me?"
Yu Chengguang touched her little head and nodded kindly.
"It's not your fault, so Shu'er should be happy and become a beautiful bride in three days."
Now that things have reached this point, Yu Shuen thought that the little bitch would never let her go.
But he didn't expect that after a sudden turn of events, His Highness Prince Cheng'an would still be willing to marry him.
This means that he has feelings for himself!
I will still have a backer in the future!
When she becomes Princess Chengan and pleases His Highness, will she still be afraid that she won't have the chance to retaliate against the father and daughter?
Thinking of this, Yu Shuen finally curled her lips and nodded hypocritically towards Yu Chengguang.
"Thank you daddy. Shu'er will definitely stop messing around in the future. As long as His Highness still wants me, I'll be fine..."
In Yu Chengguang's eyes, although Yu Shuen is unruly and willful, she is not a vicious child. Now that she is willing to admit her mistake, she may really let go.
Thinking of this, he felt a lot better, and he smiled and patted Yu Shuen's shoulder.
"Okay, okay, Shu'er, don't worry, my father will take care of your wedding and make you the most beautiful bride in the entire capital!"
"In the future, when I become His Highness's concubine, I will come back often to see my father and Chu'er, do you understand?"
Yu Shuen nodded. Even if Yu Chengguang didn't say anything, she would never forget to take good care of them as a princess.
Especially that little bitch.
