Chapter 326: The Crown Prince’s Plan

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Yu Yunxi and Chu Yuefu left Fengyi Palace and soon arrived at the imperial garden.

At this moment, Yu Yunxi felt uneasy because she was still worried about Qu Yu.

“Sister Yunxi, you seem worried. Are you worried about the food inspection?” Chu Yuefu asked inquisitively.

“No. When I entered the palace earlier, I heard that Eldest Miss Qu was here as well. I’m just curious about where she went,” Yu Yunxi said bluntly, not intending to hide this matter anymore.

Chu Yuefu raised an eyebrow slightly upon hearing Yu Yunxi’s words. He said meaningfully, “I didn’t know that Sister Yunxi is acquainted with Eldest Miss

Qu.’

“Miss Qu is a straightforward person. I liked her a lot so I befriended her,” Yu Yunxi replied truthfully. By revealing her feelings about Qu Yu, she was indirectly warning Fengyi Palace to think twice if they wanted to hurt Qu Yu.

Chu Yuefu asked in a low voice, “Does Sister Yunxi think that Imperial Mother summoned Qu Yu to Fengyi Palace and hurt her?”

Yu Yunxi pursed her lips and remained silent.

Chu Yuefu smiled and slowly said, “Imperial Mother did summon Eldest Miss Qu to Fengyi Palace about an hour ago. However, Imperial Mother did that because of someone else.:

“Someone else?”

“That’s right. A few hours ago, Duchess Qin entered the palace. She heard that the Qu family wanted to break off the engagement, and she was naturally unwilling to give up on such a good daughter-in-law. More importantly, the marriage was bestowed by Imperial Grandfather. If Eldest Miss Qu rashly breaks off the engagement, the two families might suffer. Hence, Duchess Qin asked for Imperial Mother’s help to find Eldest Miss Qu so that she could persuade Eldest Miss Qu…

“So, Eldest Miss Qu is no longer in Mother’s palace,” Chu Yuefu said before he probed, “Sister Yunxi, could it be that the reason you went to Mother’s palace earlier was to look for Eldest Miss Qu?”

Yu Yunxi did not reply. Her thoughts had already drifted far away at this moment.

‘As it turns out, Qu Yu is no longer in Fengyi Palace. What did Duchess Qin say to her?’

Yu Yunxi liked Qu Yu a lot. Naturally, she did not want Qu Yu to be harmed by the Qin family.

At this moment, Yu Xiaoxiao, who was feeling heartbroken watching the duo converse, ran over and stood between the duo. She quickly found a topic to talk about and said, “Your Royal Highness, where did you go recently? I went to look for you in the Eastern Palace a few times, but you weren’t around.”

A hint of dissatisfaction appeared in the depths of Chu Yuefu’s eyes when he saw Yu Xiaoxiao’s behavior. However, he still calmly replied, “I’ve been busy with work recently so I haven’t been in the Eastern Palace much.”

“So that’s how it is…”

Yu ?Xiaoxiao still wanted to continue the conversation, but Yu Yunxi, who was standing next to Yu Xiaoxiao, no longer had the patience to listen to Yu Xiaoxiao. She said directly, “I still have something to do so I’ll take my leave first.:

With that, Yu Yunxi turned around and left.

A slightly displeased expression appeared on Chu Yuefu’s face seeing how decisively Yu Yunxi had left.

Seeing this, Yu Xiaoxiao feigned a helpless expression on her face and said, “Don’t be angry. Cousin is always like this. She treats us like that as well in the King of Zhenbei’s Residence.”

Chu Yuefu glanced at Yu Xiaoxiao. He could naturally see through Yu Xiaoxiao’s thoughts, but he did not expose her. Instead, he called out gently, “Xiaoxiao…” Yu Xiaoxiao turned red as soon as she heard this.

“I was a little cold to you earlier, but I’m in a hurry to build a good relationship with Sister Yunxi. Can you help me?” Chu Yuefu asked.

“You mean….” Yu Xiaoxiao was puzzled.

‘He’s the Crown Prince. Why does he have to build a good relationship with that b*tch, Yu Yunxi?’

“You know how ambitious my brothers are. They’ve always been eyeing my position as the Crown Prince. Yunxi can become a sharp weapon for me to stabilize my position as the Crown Prince,” Chu Yuefu said, “She now has the commander’s seal for the Crimson Flame Army. She’s also the daughter of the King of Zhenbei. She might be able to mobilize the Crimson Flame Army.”

Chu Yuefu had already weighed the pros and the cons with his mother. With Yu Yunxi’s identity, she was undoubtedly the most noble lady in the circle. A person like her was the most suitable candidate for the position of Crown Princess. All these years, he refused to choose a Crown Princess because he wanted to wait for someone who could completely stabilize his position. There was no doubt that Yu Yunxi was very qualified.

As for their blood relations, Chu Yuefu did not care. Since ancient times, in order to stabilize their positions, many nobles had married their cousins.

Upon hearing Chu Yuefu’s words, Yu Xiaoxiao said coquettishly, “I’m also from the King of Zhenbei’s Residence. If you have a need for the troops, I can ask Uncle for you..

Chu Yuefu could hardly hide the disgust in his gaze when he heard these words. novelbuddy.co(m)

‘This idiot really doesn’t know her place at all…’

Previously, Empress Qin was willing to help Yu Xiaoxiao obtain the title of Commandery Princess and promised to make Yu Xiaoxiao Chu Yuefu’s side consort only because of Yu Xiaoxiao’s relationship with the King of Zhenbei. After all, at that time, everyone thought that Princess Changning was dead and that there was no Eldest Princess. They assumed that the King of Zhenbei had no descendants and would likely help the second branch of the Yu family. For all these reasons, it was not a bad idea to promise Yu Xiaoxiao the position of side consort.

Unexpectedly, the King of Zhenbei really ignored the second branch of the Yu family for so many years. Every time Empress Qin and Chu Yuefu asked Yu Feng about the troops, Feng would prevaricate. Now that Yu ?????????? had returned, the mother and son could see the situation clearly. In short, the second branch of the Yu family was useless. It was already a huge honor to give Yu Xiaoxiao the position of side consort.

With all these factors, Chu Yuefu was naturally disgusted that Yu Xiaoxiao did not know her place. However, Yu Xiaoxiao was not completely useless for now so he suppressed his disgust and said gently, “Xiaoxiao, can you help me? In the future, when I sit on the dragon throne, you’ll be my biggest helper…” ‘Biggest helper? Does this mean that I have a chance to become the Empress?’

Chu Yuefu’s words were ambiguous, but Yu Xiaoxiao was certain that she would be the Empress in the future. She blushed and said shyly, “Okay. I’ll listen to you…”

With that, Chu Yuefu gestured for Yu Xiaoxiao to move closer.

Yu Xiaoxiao quickly leaned over, and Chu Yuefu lowered his voice as he told her his plan.

Meanwhile, Yu Yunxi, who had just walked out of the palace gates, sneezed.

Meng Xia asked worriedly, “Eldest Princess, are you okay?” Yu Yunxi shrugged and replied, “I’m fine. Perhaps I caught a cold.”

“Eldest Princess, where are we going now?”

Yu Yunxi frowned slightly upon hearing this question. She did not know where she should go now. All she knew was that she did not want to be around people like Chu Yuefu and Yu Xiaoxiao. After a moment, she said solemnly, “I don’t know where Qu Yu is now, and I don’t know if the people from the Qin family are making things difficult for her. Let’s find her first.” However, at this moment, a maidservant rushed over..
