Remarrying Chun Yuan

Chapter 249 Not Marrying

Li Shu recognized the voice and turned around, somewhat incredulous. "Your Highness, it was she who deliberately murdered us! We absolutely cannot let her go!"

"Is the child dead?" Wei Gongming's voice was cold.

"Dead?!" Tian Yage rushed over from behind, checking to see if the child was still breathing!

"No, the child isn't dead, he's still breathing, but he must be badly injured!" she replied to Wei Gongming with a hint of resentment, lamenting how cold-hearted her biological father could be.

Wei Gongming said, "If they're not dead, then so be it; it's all an accident."

Li Shu stared at him blankly, utterly shocked and incredulous. Moreover, Wei Gongming's eyes remained fixed on Liu Yuechu; he didn't look at her, or even the child!

The maid had no choice but to obediently let go, since Wei Gongming had already given his word.

After being released, Liu Yuechan ran to get the small paper packet and painstakingly picked up all the spilled medicine powder...

"Alright, let's go." Liu Yuechu didn't want to say another word.

Liu Musheng nodded and instructed his servants to carry the palanquin away.

Li Shu looked sadly at the blood flowing from the cut on her hand, her voice choked with sobs, "You still care about her, even more than your own son." Her heart was breaking as she uttered these words.

"Cousin, this is your son, your eldest son! How can you just let them go like this!" Tian Ya Yun held the child in her arms, her heart filled with tenderness.

Wei Gongming scoffed, "So what if I'm the eldest son? Does being the eldest son mean I can do whatever I want, go to heaven and earth?"

He couldn't be bothered with those two foolish women, and breathed a sigh of relief. He could tell that the "servant" from before was no ordinary servant; he could kill with a single move!

And when did Liu Yuechu acquire such a powerful person by her side? This is an astonishing discovery!

Tian Ya-yun had no idea about all this, and was so annoyed that she took her child and went to complain to Guan Shi.

Wei Gongming also turned around, intending to return to Qin Muyan's side to talk with the Minister of the Court of Judicial Review, the Left Chancellor, and Chen Zhongyao, among others. He had no time to deal with the women.

Li Shu watched his retreating figure disappear into the distance, feeling utterly heartbroken and on the verge of tears.

The maid helped her to the side to rest, then asked the servants of the Left Chancellor's residence for water and medicine, and carefully cleaned the wound...

"Why would you do this? You'd rather give up the daughter of a high-ranking official in the Ministry of Rites than choose a man no one else wants." Jiang Yunjiao had been watching for a while and naturally realized that Li Shu had done this on purpose.

I was originally looking forward to seeing how Liu Yuechu would resolve this situation, but I didn't expect that Wei Gongming would just say a few words and the matter would be over so easily.

Li Shu was immediately furious, but when she saw that it was Jiang Yunjiao, her momentum weakened. "It doesn't matter whether others want him or not, he is the man in my heart."

"Then why bother about whether he treats you well or not? Why insist on seeing his attitude towards you and Liu Yuechu? That's just asking for trouble." Jiang Yunjiao didn't exchange pleasantries.

Li Shu was deeply hurt, and she was indeed angry about it.

"I just don't understand what he likes about her..."

"If you like someone, you like them. Why ask so many questions? It's like everyone thought he was trash, but you still cried and married him anyway." Jiang Yunjiao was also defeated by Liu Yuechu today.

She had just been scolded by Qin Muyan again, who told her to stop trying to break Liu Yuechu's spirit right now. Even if she had other plans, she had to wait until after the marriage.

Jiang Yunjiao didn't refute, because she knew she had underestimated Liu Yuechu. Besides, since the matter hadn't been accomplished, there was no point in her saying anything more.

Li Shu was stung by the medicine, and she bit her lip in pain. She wanted to mock Jiang Yunjiao for gloating, but when she thought that this was the daughter of the Left Chancellor, she didn't have the courage.

"Thank you, Miss Jiang. I'm fine now, so you don't need to stay with me." She wanted to hide away and lick her wounds alone, not wanting to be hurt anymore.

Jiang Yunjiao laughed, "I'm not that kind of person to accompany you. I just want to tell you that once you start something, it's best to finish it and not give up halfway."

Li Shu was stunned and didn't understand for a moment.

Jiang Yunjiao leaned close to her ear and said, "Didn't you want to kill that child? It's not like he can't go back and die. If he dies, won't your beloved prince hold a grudge against Liu Yuechu?"

"At that time, he had no choice but to stand on your side and the child's side..."

After saying this, she called her maids and left.

Li Shu was deeply shocked by these words. Looking at Jiang Yunjiao's slender figure, she realized that they wanted to use her as a tool to deal with Liu Yuechu.

But dealing with Liu Yuechu isn't out of the question either, since she also really wants to kill that child, killing two birds with one stone!

"Wei Gongming, I'll take one more gamble and see what you choose..."

At this moment, Liu Yuechu and Liu Musheng also arrived at the gate of the Left Chancellor's residence and changed into a carriage.

Liu Musheng also wanted to go with them, but Liu Yuechu chased him back.

"Can't we talk about this later? Don't try to leave Zhongyao here alone. What kind of person are you? You're such a jerk!"

"I feel uncomfortable all over here, like I have fleas." Liu Musheng still squeezed into the carriage. "I do have something to say to you. I'll get off when I'm done."

"Speak," Liu Yuechu stared blankly at him.

Liu Musheng looked at Liu Yuechan, and with this little girl present, he really couldn't bring himself to say it.

Liu Yuechan was still immersed in the sorrow of feeling wronged and heartbroken.

The feeling of injustice stemmed from being framed twice in one day, while the heartache came from the fact that not all the medicine had been collected and a small portion had been spilled.

She also acted spoiled and refused to leave, saying, "I have to stay close to my second sister, I don't want to get off the bus!" She clung to Liu Yuechu's arm and wouldn't let go. Who isn't a baby at heart!

Liu Yuechu smiled and patted her head, "Go sit in the front first, and come back after your brother finishes speaking."

Men always crave some inexplicable sense of propriety, and besides, she didn't want to linger at the entrance of the Left Chancellor's residence.

Liu Yuechan immediately squeezed to the front.

After a long pause, Liu Musheng said, "I want to divide the family property now, just like you said before. I only want a portion of the horse farm, and the rest will all belong to you."

"It's not that it belongs to you, it's that you're keeping it safe for me. Um... you, Huang Wanwan, and Lin Mengyu, didn't you want to open a teahouse? Put my money in there."

Liu Yuechu stared at him intently, without saying a word.

"Why are you looking at me like that? I feel like I can't even protect myself, so I put the money with you so I won't get swindled out of everything and end up sleeping on the street!" Liu Musheng sensed the danger. "Besides, even if someone tries to harm me, the money is in your hands, so our family won't suffer too much loss."

“You’re overthinking it,” Liu Yuechu refused. “I’m not involved in this. If you want to invest, go talk to Huang Wanwan and Lin Mengyu directly. I’m already planning to have a child, so I’m not in the mood to deal with these things.”

"Besides, how much money can a teahouse hold? You might as well hand it over to Yuan Cuo and let him give you some advice. Anyway, don't try anything with me. I'm being watched more than anyone else."

Liu Yuechu, feeling utterly helpless, revealed the truth.

Liu Musheng was dumbfounded. After thinking about it carefully, perhaps it really was true...

"Am I really going to marry this woman from the Left Chancellor's household? Is there any way I can avoid it?" He was unwilling to accept this.
