"Your Highness, it's Miss Cui." Qingfeng said in a low voice.
Situ Yao sensed the surrounding discussions and had no choice but to let Cui Mixue get on the carriage. He asked coldly, "What is it that requires you to stop a horse in the street?"
"Your Highness, I was wrong about what happened before. Please forgive me." There was no enthusiasm for Situ Yao in Cui Mixue's eyes at all, as if she had become a different person.
Situ Yao glanced at her nonchalantly and said coldly, "What are you going to do?"
"Your Highness promised to bring me into the palace. Did you forget?" Cui Mixue escaped from Prince Rui's Mansion and returned to Cui's house. She calculated that Situ Yao would pass by here today, so she stopped the horse in the street.
Situ Yao had not forgotten that she and Situ Zhao were entangled. He did not dare to take such a person back. He coldly refused, "You are the legitimate daughter of the Cui family. You don't have to wrong yourself and enter the palace as a maid."
"Your Highness, there is nothing wrong between Prince Rui and me. I was forced into it." Cui Mixue explained hurriedly.
Seeing that Situ Yao was still unmoved, she asked, "Your Highness just returned from the posthouse, right?"
"The marriage between the Prince of Beiliang and the third princess could not be completed, and in the end it was the fifth princess who married him." In desperation, Cui Mixue told people what might happen in the future.
"What did you say?" Situ Yao's indifference disappeared in an instant, replaced by coldness.
"The Fifth Princess is destined to be the one to marry into a foreign alliance." Cui Mixue knew that Yun Fu was his weak spot, so she took the opportunity to make a request, "If Your Highness is willing to let me enter the palace, I can help the Fifth Princess escape her fate."
"How can I trust you?" Situ Yao sneered, "Could it be that Miss Cui can know the future in just a few days?"
"This is what I overheard in Prince Rui's Mansion. I cannot tell Your Highness the specific plan yet." Cui Mixue lied.
Situ Yao looked at her quietly for a moment, then sneered, "I'll trust you this time. If your information is wrong and you dare to harm Yun Fu, you know the consequences."
Cui Mixue lowered her head and did her duty as a servant.
Su Mengyan heard that Situ Yao was leaving the palace today to settle the marriage of the Prince of Beiliang, and came over excitedly to ask, but she saw Cui Mixue at a glance.
Her smile disappeared suddenly, but Cui Mixue smiled particularly brightly, as if she was protesting against her.
Su Mengyan ignored her and walked straight to Situ Yao and asked, "Your Highness, how is it going? Can the princess come back?"
"It's almost there." Situ Yao asked someone to take Cui Mixue away and left with a cold face.
Su Mengyan returned to the room and saw the embroidered sachet. Thinking of Cui Mixue's pride just now, she didn't know why she wanted to lose her temper. She threw the sachet far away and didn't want to see it at all.
Before Cui Mixue entered the palace, Situ Yao would come over every day, but now he hasn't been seen for two whole days. Su Mengyan suppressed the inexplicable emotions in her heart and prepared to go out for a walk.
Then she saw a familiar figure sneaking in. Su Mengyan opened her mouth in surprise and ran over to pull her back, "Yunfu, why are you back?"
Yunfu sneaked back secretly. She had a token to enter the palace, and no one could stop her. After returning to the capital, she learned that Situ Yao was fine. The previous rumors were all rumors made up by Situ Zhao in order to seize the position of crown prince.
She wanted to sneak into the East Palace to find Situ Yao to explain, but she didn't expect to be discovered by Su Mengyan.
"Where is the prince?" Yun Fu asked nervously.
"You should be in the study at this hour." Su Mengyan pulled Yun Fu back. "Why are you back at this hour?"
"Someone sent me a letter saying that something happened to the prince. I didn't believe it at first, but then rumors spread and I couldn't help but come back to see what was going on." Yun Fu said truthfully.
Su Mengyan sensed something was wrong. "Someone sent you a letter? Did they deliberately lure you back to the palace?"
In the original novel, it was Yunfu who married into Beiliang as a peace agreement. Was everything they did before useless and could not change Yunfu's ending?
Su Mengyan felt that they had fallen into a trap, a trap deliberately designed for Yun Fu.
It is very likely that Concubine Bai wanted to exchange Yunfu for the marriage for the sake of the third princess, so she tricked her back at this time.
"Hurry, follow me to see His Highness." Su Mengyan had to discuss this with Situ Yao as soon as possible. She couldn't let Concubine Bai succeed in her conspiracy.
She pushed open the study door. Inside, besides Situ Yao, there was also Cui Mixue. They were very close together, both with outstanding looks and temperament, looking a perfect match. And she seemed like a clown who had intruded into their midst.
Situ Yao saw Yun Fu next to Su Mengyan and was unusually surprised. "When did you come back?"
"I just came back, and then Yan'er brought me to see the Crown Prince." After Yunfu finished speaking, Su Mengyan said anxiously, "Your Highness, Yunfu was tricked back by Concubine Bai. She wanted Yunfu to marry in place of the Third Princess."
"I already know." Situ Yao had just met Yun Fu, how did he know?
Su Mengyan felt something, and looking up, she saw the smugness in Cui Mixue's eyes. It suddenly occurred to her that the heroine had been reborn, so naturally she knew what happened in her previous life. It wasn't surprising that she was the one telling Situ Yao.
"Yunfu, you will live in the East Palace these days. Come back to the palace after the Mid-Autumn Festival." Situ Yao reminded.
The prince of Beiliang asked to marry the princess in front of the court officials, and the emperor has agreed. Concubine Bai will probably take action in the next few days.
Cui Mixue was eager to know what Concubine Bai wanted to do, but in her previous life she only knew about the fifth princess's marriage, and knew nothing else.
"Why is that woman in the Crown Prince's study?" Yun Fu asked puzzledly.
"They should be discussing the princess's affairs." Su Mengyan kicked the stones on the road irritably. "The Mid-Autumn Festival banquet will be in two days. Princess, please be careful."
Yun Fu settled down in the East Palace. She did not go to the courtyard arranged for her by Situ Yao, but chose to live next to Su Mengyan.
She was just a concubine, and her living space was pitifully small. She watched Yunfu move his things in, instantly filling up the small room. Su Mengyan couldn't help but say, "Why don't the princess return to her original courtyard?"
"It's right here." Yun Fu sat down beside him. "If you can live here, why can't I?"
Su Mengyan was speechless and thought to herself, you are a noble princess, it is an injustice for you to live here.
"It's late, you should go back quickly." Yun Fu drove him away, smiling, "If the prince comes to see you tonight, I will be bothering you."
Situ Yao always came to see her during the day and never stayed overnight. Facing Yun Fu's teasing, Su Mengyan said calmly, "Princess, you are joking. I won't bother you anymore."
