C265 I'm Here to Sow Discord
"If you dare to do it, why should you be afraid?" Mu Ruqing pulled Lingyue back, "This is the Imperial Residence. What should I do to you? Don't talk about those servant girl guards. Even if the Royal Highness knew, he would not say a word about me. Don't forget, who was the one who attacked me first? Compared to what you did to me, the punishment you received today is considered light."
Yun Xi's face was even darker than coal.
"What is it? Do you want to write to Yun Meng's brother and complain? Do you think you can deliver that letter? Or do you think your brother will do anything for you? He came to criticize the princess of Dayong because of an uninvestigated farce?"
Yun Xi had never suffered such grievance before. She could not speak back after being scolded and could not return the beating. The more she thought about it, the more anxious she became. Plus, she had just been offended and fainted.
Huatine was flustered at the side and Mu Ruqing coldly looked at her, "Still not helping the side consort down? Waiting for this consort to call someone to carry her?"
"Yes." Huatine could not afford to offend Mu Ruqing and her attitude was respectful.
Mu Ruqing turned around and left and instructed, "Go to the Palace and hire an Imperial Physician for her."
"Yes." Lingyue answered and left.
The Imperial Palace.
Yu Longchen went to the morning court and did not say a word. He just stood by the side and watched. He even yawned from time to time.
Yu Longzi's eyes would glance at him from time to time, while Yu Longtang was beside him. He could see Yu Longzi's facial expression and movements.
After the court session, Yu Longchen still looked lazy. Before the Emperor left, he glanced at him and sighed, as if he was very disappointed in him.
Yu Longchen walked to the Profound Martial Path and a palace maid came out from the darkness. She bowed to Yu Longchen, "Consort Long invites the Royal Highness to make a trip."
Yu Longchen looked over and sized up the palace maid in front of him. He put his hands behind his back and said, "You are Consort Long's person? Why does this king not have any impression of you? If Consort Long is looking for this king for something, why did she not let Chunrong come?"
" Older sister Chunrong was sent by Your Ladyship to handle other matters. This servant is a newly promoted palace maid in Your Ladyship Palace. " The palace maid's words were sonorous and forceful, making people somewhat convinced.
"Newly promoted?" Yu Longchen suddenly laughed and snorted, "Why would Consort Long hand the matter over to a new person? Tell me, who sent you?"
"His Royal Highness is smart, as expected, he can't hide it from His Royal Highness." Ruoqing raised her head and looked at Yu Longchen with a smile.
Seeing her face, Yu Longchen thought of Mu Ruqing and his tone softened a little. After thinking for a while, he said with some anger, "Did Yu Longzi ask you to come? Your face makes me very uncomfortable looking at it."
Ruoqing smiled. She looked a little like Mu Ruqing and smiled. But there was not the slightest similarity," This servant naturally cannot compare to the beauty of the Princess. But her appearance was given by her parents, what can this servant do about it? Then, will Your Highness go or not?"
" Where is it? " Yu Longchen changed his lazy attitude and stood in front of Ruoqing.
Ruoqing slightly turned her head and led Yu Longchen away.
Yu Longzi waited for Yu Longchen for a long time before he saw Ruoqing bringing people over. He gave Ruoqing a satisfied smile and Ruoqing nodded her head and left.
Yu Longchen stood by Yu Longzi's side and narrowed his eyes. "You actually have the leisure to come here to enjoy the scenery. Are you giving up on Princess Wanle? Really heartless. "
"She is going to die. Why waste time on her?" Yu Longzi said it bluntly. He did not plan to hide it. "If it was Yu Longtang, he would have done the same thing as me."
"It's different. It's not like we're the same person. What would he have done? How can you be sure? In this world, isn't the hardest thing to guess is the human heart? " Yu Longchen looked forward, but when he spoke, there was a bit of disagreement and ridicule.
"It's a waste for you to think of everything for him." Yu Longzi looked at Yu Longchen's side profile and his eyes were filled with emotion, "There are some things that I can't bear to tell you..."
"Huh, didn't you call me here to talk about those things that I can't bear to tell you?" Yu Longchen coldly snorted, full of disdain.
"You have also investigated Consort Lan's death for a long time. Then do you know who was involved in this matter?" Yu Longzi moved his body and changed direction. "Unfortunately, you still treat her as your family. She doesn't treat you as a family member now. "
"Consort Long?" With doubt and certainty, Yu Longchen was very contradictory. His words were things that he had thought about but did not want to believe.
"You also do not know who did Longyun's matter. Or it could be said that you know but do not believe in your own judgment. Then let me tell you, it was your beloved Consort Long who did it. Just because I cannot allow Prime Minister Mu and Longyun to marry and be tied down by me, because that will affect Yu Longtang."
"What else? Let me see what else you can say. " Although Yu Longchen said so, he clenched his fist under his sleeve.
"My goal is clear. Spread between you and Yu Longtang. After all, there was a Consort Long between the two of you. Yu Longtang was Consort Long's biological son. That position... Consort Long would only fight for him alone. As for the others... Once it is used up, get rid of them." Yu Longzi had called him over, and it was not like he was speaking in riddles. He had a proud smile on his face. After all, he had a mother who loved him, and his mother was the mother of Dayong.
"You're quite straightforward." Yu Longchen's tone was indifferent, and it was hard to say whether he was happy or angry.
"Do you know why Consort Long raised you under her knees? Not only because she felt guilty towards you, but also because Consort Lan was Royal Father's favorite concubine. Consort Lan is dead, how could Royal Father not protect you?" Yu Longchen had never really thought about what Yu Longzi said. "Since I know I can't do anything to you, I might as well use Royal Father's love to win your favor.
Consort Long's wisdom is truly ruthless. She killed your mother and didn't forget to use you.
You have always been a chess piece in Consort Long's hands. She used Royal Father's love and debt to make you help Yu Longtang step by step to ascend to the throne, and then...
Hehe.
It was also her fault that she was a little stupid. She did not think of these things. Otherwise, the ones who would become brothers with her would be you and me. After all, how can raising a concubine compare to having a mother of the country?"
Yu Longchen's ears hurt when he heard this. He only felt that his heart was empty, and his gaze was somewhat absent-minded.
"Isn't it too much of a blow? Could it be that this little bit of truth has made you suffer such a blow? Or perhaps I think you're too much of an opponent for me " Yu Longzi was a little relaxed, as if he really did not take Yu Longchen seriously.
There was a thin red line of blood in Yu Longchen's eyes, and his tone was filled with suppressed anger. "So what if I am? So what if it is not? Consort Long is not the only one who has let me down. I will not be lenient to those who should be taken back. As for Second Big Brother, he has always been my Second Big Brother. You can't compare to him. "
" I really don't understand why you people are in so much pain. I really don't understand. You guys are clearly in pain, yet you still pretend to be in love with him. Yu Longtang might not treat you the same way you treat him. Those who want to rule the world, aren't they cruel?" Yu Longzi opened his hands and revealed a smile. His entire body exuded a heroic aura. It was as if the world was already his.
Yu Longchen stared at Yu Longzi and said slowly, "Like I said, people are different from humans."
"Yes, different, but I can guarantee that." Yu Longzi pointed at his heart and said, "You were born in the royal family. You did not remember the painful separation when you were young. Why are you still so naive now?"
Yu Longchen turned around and looked at him from the corner of his eye. He quickly walked away.
Yu Longzi looked at Yu Longchen's back as he walked away. The sunlight had lengthened his shadow.
