Yun Xiangye accidentally fell into a lake during a spring outing and was rescued by Gu Yan, a rich young master who was recuperating in Jiangnan.
To repay his great kindness, Yun Xiangye offe...
Chapter 198 Confessing to Gu Yan
When Xiao Nuonuo heard that she would not have a sister for the time being, she couldn't help feeling disappointed. She could only go to the little emperor's grandson and play with her brother.
Ye Wanhe dismissed the palace servants around her and said to Yun Xiangye, "Xiangye, how is your relationship with Gu Yan now?"
Yun Xiangye raised her eyes to look at Ye Wanhe and said, "We have reconciled."
Ye Wanhe chuckled and said, "Now that His Majesty is seriously ill, Prince Ning is fully responsible for state affairs. If you and Gu Yan are not on good terms, and Gu Yan still treats you badly, I would have to make other preparations. Since you and Gu Yan have reconciled, I don't have to make other preparations."
Yun Xiangye also knew that their current situation was no longer the same as before, but was related to the highest power in the Dasheng Dynasty.
Yun Xiangye nodded towards Ye Wanhe and said, "If Gu Yanruo still treats me badly and lets me down in the future, I will be patient for you and the little grandson."
Ye Wanhe chuckled and said, "That's not necessary. If Gu Yan still lets you down, I can find someone else to assist the little grandson. The Gu family has been powerful for more than 20 years. I don't know how many people behind the scenes want to destroy the Gu family and take over. You must remember that you don't have to suffer in the Gu family for me and Yu'er."
Yun Xiangye lowered her head and whispered, "In fact, it is reasonable for me to suffer some injustice. After all, this time it is my turn to hide it from Gu Yan..."
Yun Xiangye was filled with guilt. She had hated Gu Yan for hiding his identity from her for three years, but now it was her turn, and she had no way of confessing to Gu Yan...
If my sister drugged the prince, it would be a capital crime and her entire clan might even be implicated.
Although my sister's nine clans are now the Wei family, my sister is definitely going to die.
Ye Wanhe paused after hearing this and said, "Xiangye, why don't you confess to Gu Yan? Don't let my actions damage your relationship."
Yun Xiangye hurriedly said, "How can I confess this? Gu Yan and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince have a deep brotherly relationship. If you tell Gu Yan about this, he will definitely go to great lengths to find His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and then your life will be in danger."
Ye Wanhe reached out and touched the little face of the child in her arms and said, "Xiangye, when I dealt with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, I had already thought that the worst outcome would be nothing more than losing my life, but it would also be considered as revenge for my grudge against His Royal Highness the Crown Prince over the years."
"I didn't want to implicate anyone, but Hong and you two found out, and I was the one who dragged you into this. I'm really sorry for you.
Especially you, Xiangye, you and Gu Yan finally reconciled, you really shouldn't have turned against each other because of me."
"Just go and tell Gu Yan about this. No matter what decision Gu Yan makes, at least you and your wife won't become enemies because of me."
Yun Xiangye shook his head and said, "No, you must not tell Gu Yan about this. If you tell Gu Yan, you will die."
Ye Wanhe gently touched the face of the baby in her arms and said, "I still have two fake death pills left, which are enough for Yu'er and I to escape. Besides, as long as Gu Yan doesn't find His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, he won't dare to hastily convict me. After all, little Yu'er is in a difficult situation. As long as Zhao Yun doesn't show up, I will be fine. Even if he shows up, I still have fake death pills."
Ye Wanhe said, "Xiangye, go back and tell Gu Yan about this today. Don't delay it too long. Otherwise, Gu Yan will find out about it first, and the relationship you have worked so hard to mend will be broken again because of me."
Yun Xiangye pursed her lips tightly, "Sister, do you know the whereabouts of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince now?"
Ye Wanhe shook her head slightly and said, "After Ah Hong sold Zhao Yun to a black market trafficker with a foreign accent, he disappeared. After all, the more people know about this, the more dangerous it is. I didn't specifically hire anyone to keep an eye on Zhao Yun."
Ye Wanhe was also very clear that her method this time was not perfect, and she could not make it perfect.
Even if Zhao Yun was saved, whether he would return or not was still an unknown to Ye Wanhe, and she had prepared for the worst.
So she didn't give Zhao Yun all the fake death drugs, and left two pills.
It would be best if this matter goes smoothly, but if it is exposed, it will be nothing more than the original plan.
Ye Wanhe said, "Sister Xiangye, you also know the pain of being kept in the dark for three years by the person beside you. You didn't interfere in this matter in the first place. There is no need to lose someone who loves you because of this. You should go and tell the truth today."
Yun Xiangye lowered her head, and for a moment she didn't know how to talk to Gu Yan.
Yun Xiangye looked at Ye Wanhe and said, "Sister, at worst I will just break up with Gu Yan completely... Although it's a bit painful, I can't let your plan be ruined and your life be endangered because of me."
Ye Wanhe smiled at Yun Xiangye and said, "You are talking nonsense. I will not die. I still have some fake death medicine left. Don't worry. But don't do to others what you don't want others to do to you. Go and confess to Gu Yan. I really didn't consider this before."
Yun Xiangye still looked at Ye Wanhe with concern, "You have finally become the mother of the Crown Prince, but because of the relationship between Gu Yan and I, you have lost this great power and glory..."
Ye Wanhe interrupted Yun Xiangye before she finished speaking and said, "These are not what I have been asking for."
Ye Wanhe looked at Yun Xiangye and said, "I just want to be Ye Wanhe again, the daughter of the Ye family, and reunite with my parents. Now I am the Crown Princess, so what if I am the mother of the Crown Prince's grandson? The one who has this honor is not Ye Wanhe, but Wei Zhenzhu. It's almost the New Year again, but I still can't even reunite with my parents. I thought this year would be a reunion year..."
Yun Xiangye said: "When Yu'er grows up and finds out that he was supposed to be the crown prince, will he hate me?"
Seeing Yu'er smiling at her in her arms, Ye Wanhe tapped Yu'er's nose and said, "Yu'er can't blame you. If Yu'er wants to blame someone, she can only blame me, her mother."
The baby in Ye Wanhe's arms smiled at her again.
After hearing what her sister said, Yun Xiangye was thinking about how to confess to Gu Yan. She didn't know if Gu Yan would hate her for telling him the truth now after knowing it.
Yun Xiangye sighed. She also understood that because of hiding the matter, she always felt guilty and insecure in front of Gu Yan.
It would be better to listen to my sister and confess the matter to Gu Yan.
After all, she hated Gu Yan's hiding the truth from her before.
After returning to Qingfeng Courtyard from the palace, it was a long time before Yun Xiangye saw Gu Yan return.
Yun Xiangye let Nanny Cao take Nuonuo away, and went forward to help Gu Yan take off his outer cloak.
Seeing Yun Xiangye's attentiveness, Gu Yan chuckled and said, "It's rare to see you so attentive, but what can I ask for?"
Yun Xiangye lowered his head and said, "I don't have anything to ask of you, I just want to confess something to you... Since I hated you for hiding it from me for three years, I really shouldn't have lied to you..."
Yun Xiangye thought about it again and again, and decided to follow her sister's wishes and confess the matter to Gu Yan.
She could talk about it later, but at least she shouldn't have hidden the secret from Gu Yan when she clearly hated the person beside her for hiding it from her.
Gu Yan held Yun Xiangye in his arms and chuckled, "What are you hiding from me?"
Yun Xiangye raised her eyes to look at Gu Yan and said, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is not dead."
Gu Yan frowned and said, "Xiangye, this is not a joke. I watched His Royal Highness the Crown Prince enter the coffin with my own eyes, and I also saw him enter the mausoleum with my own eyes. Are you telling me that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is not dead?"
