Chapter 1705: The Conspiracy Reappears!

Translator: Lonelytree

After all, this was related to the Yuwen family!

After hearing her master’s words, Xiao Cui was puzzled.

Shouldn’t they add fuel to the fire and make it burn even more fiercely?

Although Xiao Cui was a little puzzled, she had been by Xiao Jingyu’s side for two years and understood her temper very well. She did not say what she should not say and did not ask what she should not ask.

Since Master had said so, then she would listen to her orders.

“Your Highness, you’re back!” A servant girl’s voice came from outside.

Xiao Jingyu’s expression changed slightly. Then, Xiao Cui took out a powder box from the box she had prepared and smeared it on her face a few times. Her rosy face turned pale again.

“Is the princess feeling better today?” The eldest grandprince asked.

“Your Highness, the princess’ body is still the same as before!” The servant girl said very politely.

“Oh!” The eldest grandprince was worried and said,” I’ll go take a look!”

When she entered the room, he saw Xiao Jingyu leaning against the bed. He quickened his pace and walked up to her. He reached out to touch his pale face and asked with concern,” Princess, are you feeling better today?”

Xiao Jingyu nodded and said,” Thank you for your concern, Your Highness. I’m feeling better. I believe that I will be completely better soon!”

Yuwen Xuhong said in disbelief,” Princess, why don’t we let the imperial physician take a look at you? Look at your face. It’s still a little pale and looks a little scary!!

Xiao Jingyu shook her head and asked with a smile,” I wonder if I scared Your Highness?”

Yuwen Xuhong said,” Silly, how could you scare me? You are my lover.”

When she heard the words “You are my lover”, Xiao Jingyu only snorted coldly in her heart. She was very disdainful and mocking.

Thinking back to two years ago, he and the Imperial Consort were so loving. Because of this, because of her arrival, he didn’t give her any face for a long time. On the day of their wedding, he didn’t even step into the bridal chamber at night but went to Ye Yao’s room.

At that time, Ye Yao had just returned.

But so what?

It hadn’t been long since he had fallen for her beauty. Until now, he couldn’t leave her at all.

Of course, it was also related to her use of seduction techniques.

But so what? If one really loved someone, how could one not resist the temptation of another person?

That could only mean that he did not love her as deeply as he thought.

There was no cat in the world that did not cheat. Humph, it was the same for men. There was no man in the world who did not love beauty.

Therefore, she only used a little trick to make this man obey her obediently.

Xiao Jingyu had a very vain sense of satisfaction.

Humph, men are just toys!

Xiao Jingyu leaned into Yuwen Xuhongs arms and said softly,” Your Highness,

I looked for you several times today. The servants said that you went out.”

When Yuwen Xuhong heard that Xiao Jingyu had looked for him a few times, he immediately said,” Did Yu ‘er look for me? I went to the palace today.”

Hearing that Yuwen Xuhong had entered the palace, Xiao Jingyu was very sensible and did not ask again.

After all, she was not only a concubine in the Imperial Grandprince Manor but also Princess Linglong of the Black Cloud Kingdom.

As a princess of a foreign country, she couldn’t casually ask about the palace.

However, was she really not going to ask?

Princess Linglong then let Yuwen Xuhongs eyes meet hers. She then smiled and asked,” His Majesty is looking for you all of a sudden. Is there anything His Majesty needs?”

Yuwen Xuhongs eyes were dull for a moment before he replied,” Imperial Grandfather said that he would hand over the marriage of Princess Guguo and the Great General to the Crown Prince. He then asked me to a.s.sist from the side.’

When Xiao Jingyu heard this, a ruthless light flashed in her eyes.

She had not expected this at all.

However, she was a little surprised. The rumours had already spread, but the Emperor still sent someone to manage their marriage.

Marriage?

Xiao Jingyu reacted immediately.

Her expression changed slightly. Her soft and gentle voice suddenly became a little loud and sharp.

She asked again,” Are you talking about Jiang Zhennan and Lin Yuelan’s marriage?”

Yuwen Xuhong nodded,” Yes.”

This time, Xiao Jingyu was completely shocked.

Logically speaking, the rumours outside had already spread like wildfire. Whether Lin Yuelan could marry or not was still a question. After all, this concerned their country..
