Su Mengyan asked Chunhe to help her pack up as quickly as possible and ran all the way to the front hall. Sure enough, Situ Yao and Yunfu were sitting there like two giant Buddhas, with gloomy expressions.
She chose a seat farther away and sat down, bowing her head in apology, "I know I was wrong. I have kept His Highness and the Princess waiting for so long."
The key point is that she didn't know whether Situ Yao was crazy or what, but he actually waited for her to have breakfast together. Su Mengyan complained wildly in her heart.
"I asked the kitchen to make this especially for you." Situ Yao moved a bowl of porridge in front of her. "You're still seriously injured, so you should eat something light."
Su Mengyan watched helplessly as the delicious breakfast on the table disappeared bit by bit, and she could only drink the tasteless white porridge, feeling extremely sad.
"Your Highness." Su Mengyan put down the spoon and tried to reason with him.
Situ Yao ate his shrimp dumplings slowly and leisurely. Even while eating, he looked too good-looking. So when he looked up at her, Su Mengyan was slightly startled and successfully forgot what she had carefully prepared to say.
Situ Yao didn't mind being disturbed by her, "I'll go for a walk in the peach forest behind."
"I'm going too." Yun Fu wanted to go along, and he almost stretched out his legs, but Situ Yao persuaded him to come back, "Yan'er hasn't finished her breakfast yet, you stay with her first."
Su Mengyan nearly choked on her porridge. Could it be that after a night like that, Situ Yao had lost his mind? Yun Fu clearly had a problem with her, but he still asked her to accompany him. Wasn't he afraid they would start a fight?
Seeing Yun Fu's resentful eyes, Su Mengyan quickly shook her head, "This servant can do it alone, Princess, you go with His Highness."
Before he could finish his words, Situ Yaoren had already left. Yun Fu was furious and sat down in front of Su Mengyan, "It's all your fault. I haven't seen the prince for so long, and he finally came to see me once, and brought you with him."
"Princess, you are right. It is this servant who has hindered your relationship with His Highness." Su Mengyan endured it again and again, but in the end, she couldn't help but speak out her heart. "Princess, please forgive me for being so presumptuous. Why are you so dependent on His Highness?"
Yun Fu was a simple-minded man. After learning that Su Mengyan had blocked a fatal blow for Situ Yao, his opinion of her changed slightly. So he said without hesitation, "In the palace, I was bullied by Concubine Bai, and only the Crown Prince would help me."
"As for this marriage, if it weren't for my brother, the Crown Prince, my father would definitely send me to Beiliang."
Su Mengyan felt that although the princesses of the royal family looked noble, their lives might actually be worse than those of ordinary people. If Situ Yao hadn't protected this spoiled and willful little princess, she would have been eaten alive by the palace.
"What's that look in your eyes?" Yun Fu fiercely wiped away the tears that had flowed out of his eyes at some point, and warned her fiercely, "Brother Crown Prince is my most important family member. If you dare to betray him, I will not forgive you."
Su Mengyan didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She showed her the wound on her back and said, "If I were to betray Your Highness, I wouldn't have this injury."
"You haven't answered my question from yesterday," Yun Fu said, becoming serious. "Do you like the Crown Prince?"
Su Mengyan didn't know how to answer her. She told the truth yesterday, but Yunfu didn't believe her. She didn't want to answer now. "Isn't the princess going to look for His Highness?"
"No." Yun Fu no longer had the same interest in following Situ Yao as before. "Crown Prince must have gone to discuss something."
So you're here to pester me? Su Mengyan wanted to chase him away. However, she remembered that although Yun Fu's personality in the original novel was a bit unruly, he was actually very simple.
"Princess, His Highness has a girl he likes." Su Mengyan looked disappointed. "As for whether this servant likes him or not, it has nothing to do with me."
Her words really succeeded in making Yun Fu stop talking about the matter. Instead, he was more curious about the person Situ Yao liked. "Does the Crown Prince really like her? Will she become my future sister-in-law?"
This was a bit dangerous. Su Mengyan shook her head and refused to answer. She moved the wound on her shoulder.
"Did you get hurt?" Yun Fu noticed the discomfort on her face and scolded Chun He, "What are you standing there for? Hurry up and help your master back home."
"Princess, I will go back first," Su Mengyan smiled weakly. Seeing that she was speechless, Yun Fu was too embarrassed to ask any more questions and let her go back.
When they reached a place where Yunfu couldn't see her, Su Mengyan quickly stood up and said, "I'm fine, no need to support me."
Chunhe had to hurry to catch up with her fast pace.
When she reached the door, Su Mengyan suddenly stopped, turned around and whispered, "The door was pushed open."
When she came out, Chunhe had closed the door tightly, but now it was ajar.
"What should we do now?" Chunhe was very scared. "My lady, let's go and call someone over." There were many guards guarding the manor.
"No." Su Mengyan stared inside. "Calling everyone here might alert the enemy. If the guards show up and there's no one inside, wouldn't that be too embarrassing?"
"It's settled." Su Mengyan took a few cautious steps forward without waiting for Chunhe to say anything, "I'll go in and check out the situation first."
Su Mengyan's behavior was by no means reckless, because she and Chunhe stood outside for a long time and did not see any movement inside, so she dared to take such a risky move.
The two dared not breathe. Su Mengyan gently pushed the door open. Just as she took a step forward, Chunhe suddenly fainted on the ground. A pair of large hands restrained her. A cold voice rang out behind her, "Don't move! Otherwise, I will strangle you to death right now!"
Su Mengyan smelled the scent of blood in the air and guessed that the man was seriously injured, otherwise he would have run away when he heard they came back and would not have waited until now.
"Who are you? What happened to Chunhe?" Su Mengyan quickly calmed down.
"She can't die." He must have been seriously injured, and his voice was a little weak. "As long as you don't make a sound, she can live."
"Good man, I absolutely won't say anything." Su Mengyan persuaded kindly, "How about you let me go first?"
Situ Yao's defense of this place was very strict, so it was impossible that he had not discovered this living person. What she had to do now was to delay time and wait for someone to come over.
"Shut up!" The man in black not only didn't let her go, but instead used even more force, nearly suffocating Su Mengyan. At the same time, she could sense the smell of blood in the room was even stronger than before.
"If you let me go, I can let you out." Su Mengyan racked her brains to delay, "Otherwise, I saw the door was ajar and called someone over."
