Chapter 322 What did my cousin do to me? (4)
However, the Empress only verbally reprimanded Bai Liyue and did not physically harm her.
After Bai Liyue returned to the East Palace, she cried uncontrollably.
Ignoring the fact that Song Xingshuo was discussing important matters with court officials in the study, he rushed in directly.
"Your Highness, you must stand up for me!"
Song Xingshuo: "..."
Let the court officials leave first.
His face looked a little ugly.
Bai Liyue recounted her grievances.
"Her Majesty the Empress just doesn't like me! Your Highness, you must go and talk to her! If you intervene, she'll never dare to boss me around again..."
Song Xingshuo: "..."
How could Bai Liyue dare to say things like "Preaching to the Empress" and "Making the Empress Never Dare Again"?
“Liyue… I will go to see my mother. But… I don’t know why, I can no longer find the same feeling in you.”
But since he had already agreed to marry Bai Liyue as the Crown Princess, he had to keep his promise.
Even if he no longer loves her, he will only have Bai Liyue as his wife in this lifetime.
The members of the Yun Dynasty royal family are all devoted lovers who yearn for a monogamous life.
Following the example set by the superiors, officials of the Yun Dynasty also followed suit.
Only a minority of men have concubines; most men who want to have an affair won't openly admit that they have women other than their legal wife.
"Liyue, go back and reflect on your actions. You were also at fault. I will search far and wide for itinerant doctors and make sure you are cured."
"But before that, you need to rest well."
Actually, not letting Bai Liyue go out was for her own good.
The capital city is not so simple.
If Bai Liyue offends someone she shouldn't because she doesn't know the rules, even if he is the crown prince, he cannot abuse his power for personal gain.
But Bai Liyue believed that Song Xingshuo was imprisoning her!
Hmph, does Song Xingshuo not love her anymore?
Was he seduced by Bai Ruofu's beauty?
Or was it that vile woman, the Empress, who was behind it all?!
In short, Bai Liyue doesn't think it's her fault.
But no matter how angry she was, she didn't dare to argue with Song Xingshuo directly, so she stormed back to her residence.
Within two hours, he had made himself faint from anger again.
-
Bai Liyue was dizzy for a long time this time.
Bai Ruofu also figured out the layout of the East Palace.
One day, she disguised herself as a palace maid, smeared her face with soot, and went out through the back door.
I'm so bored, I want to go out for a walk.
They hadn't gone far when they encountered a young Taoist priest.
"Girl, you've been hit by a puppet spell!"
The young Taoist priest calculated with his fingers and said a few words of "what a pity".
It's truly heartbreaking that such a beautiful girl was manipulated like this...
In the past, Bai Ruofu would not have believed in these things.
But now, what's happening to her has forced her to believe it.
And she was also afraid... that encountering the young Taoist priest would also become part of Bai Liyue's experience.
Seemingly sensing her concerns, the young Taoist explained, "Girl, don't worry, I'm not a good person... but I'm not a bad person either, hehe."
"My name is Song Hening. Because I was sickly when I was young, my parents sent me to Kunlun Mountain to cultivate Taoism. Now I'm almost fully recovered, and I just happened to be passing through the capital, so I came back to visit my parents and older brother..."
"Only those with ulterior motives would resort to such despicable means! Don't worry, I have my own way of breaking this puppet technique for you!"
Bai Ruofu was extremely surprised when she heard his name.
"You are... His Highness the Crown Prince's younger brother? The current Second Prince?"
The current empress has two sons and one daughter.
The eldest prince is Song Xingshuo, who is also the current crown prince.
