Just when Su Mengyan was hesitant and didn't know what to say, Yunfu heard that a girl had come to the villa, and ran over curiously. Seeing her tearful appearance, he felt a little displeased.
In front of so many people, Yun Fu did not show it. Instead, he looked at Cui Mixue for a long time before asking, "Brother Crown Prince, who is this?"
"This must be Princess Yunfu," Cui Mixue said softly, introducing herself. "I am from the Cui family of Longxi. I am honored to meet you, Princess."
"Are you Miss Cui?" Yun Fu became interested. Before Situ Yao could speak, he pulled Su Mengyan aside and whispered to her, "How could the Crown Prince like a woman like this?"
Having said that, she glanced at Cui Mixue again and said, "I think she is not as good as you."
"Princess, I'm just a humble concubine." Su Mengyan smiled bitterly. Although the plot was different from the original, Yun Fu still disliked Cui Mixue. The two of them were at odds from the moment they met.
Cui Mixue saw from afar that Su Mengyan and Yunfu were very close. She clasped her hands tightly in her sleeves, suppressing the jealousy in her heart. With a smile on her face, she said to Situ Yao, "Yan'er and the princess have a really good relationship." There was just the right amount of envy in her tone.
Situ Yao didn't buy her tricks and asked her coldly, "How did you find this place?"
"Your Highness once said that I was overestimating my abilities. I thought about it for a long time and it is true, but I really like Your Highness. I hope Your Highness can allow me to stay." Cui Mixue knew very well that as long as she entered this villa, Situ Yao would definitely not drive her out for the sake of keeping the secret. The reason she said this was just to give each other a way out.
Situ Yao was threatened by her and wanted to strangle the woman in front of him. He suddenly laughed coldly, "You are right."
"You are indeed different from those women." Cui Mixue blushed again because of his words.
Unexpectedly, Situ Yao immediately said to her, "You are more shameless than them." In short, he was being shameless.
Cui Mixue was extremely embarrassed. She blamed everything on Su Mengyan, thinking that if it weren't for her, Situ Yao would look at her with a new respect.
After Yunfu finished their whisper, they returned together. She asked the same question as Situ Yao, "No one knows about this villa. I want to know how Miss Cui discovered it."
"Princess." Cui Mixue had just said two words when her vision suddenly went black and she collapsed to the ground. Cui Mixue's maid, Bi Wu, cried and complained, "Our young lady had been following the group to find His Highness. But after His Highness entered Feiyun Peak, we lost him. The young lady searched the mountains for many days before finally finding him here."
A weak woman who has been searching alone for so many days, no wonder she fainted now. Others couldn't help but feel sympathy for Cui Mixue.
Su Mengyan was afraid that something might happen to Cui Mixue. She had the aura of a heroine, and when she woke up, she would probably blame everything on herself.
She looked at Yun Fu and Situ Yao. Neither of them moved. It seemed that neither of them wanted to call a doctor for her.
Su Mengyan knew that Cui Mixue was pretending, but she still had to say, "Your Highness, Miss Cui has fainted. Why don't you ask a doctor to take a look?"
"Take her downstairs to rest. There's no need for a doctor." Situ Yao didn't believe that she could have fainted at such a coincidence.
After Cui Mixue and her servant left, Situ Yao instructed Qingfeng, "Send someone to keep an eye on her. If there's any sign of trouble, come and tell me immediately."
The place that was noisy just now was suddenly filled with only three people. Yun Fu no longer had any reservations and directly questioned Situ Yao, "Brother Crown Prince, is the person you like this Miss Cui?"
"Her status is too low and she is not worthy of marrying you. It is even more impossible for her to become the Crown Princess." Yun Fu did not hide her dislike for Cui Mixue.
Situ Yao glanced at Su Mengyan lightly, "Who told you that?"
Yun Fu was simple-minded after all, and couldn't help but glance at Su Mengyan. However, she didn't betray the person who provided her with the information. Instead, she said ambiguously, "Prince brother, don't change the subject. You haven't answered me yet."
"Yunfu, this is my own business. Don't just follow what others say." Situ Yao looked very stern when he said this.
Sadness flashed across Yun Fu's clear eyes, and she nodded gently, "I was too talkative." After saying this, she ran away.
"Hey, Princess." Su Mengyan was worried about her and wanted to chase after her.
Situ Yao grabbed her hand directly and said with a dark face, "Come with me."
Even when he was sitting there motionless, Situ Yao had an aura of authority without even getting angry. Su Mengyan wanted to save her own life and didn't want to get into a fight with him. So she took the initiative to ask him, "What's wrong, Your Highness?"
"Su Mengyan, you still have the nerve to ask me what's wrong." Situ Yao's handsome face was covered with a gloomy cloud. "How did Yunfu know Cui Mixue?"
Su Mengyan was determined to deny it, and answered him calmly, "Your Highness, the princess is only living in the villa temporarily, but that doesn't mean she doesn't know what's happening in the palace during this period."
"So you mean Yunfu found out on his own?" Situ Yao's tone was a little dangerous. He slammed the table heavily. "It's already this late, and you still don't want to tell the truth!"
"Who allowed you to talk nonsense in front of Yunfu?" Although she didn't say it, Situ Yao guessed it easily.
Su Mengyan carefully observed his expression. Although he was angry, he probably wasn't ready to kill. So she cautiously admitted, "I only said that Your Highness had a crush on someone, not Miss Cui."
"The truth?" Situ Yao asked.
"Of course, absolutely nothing I said was false." Su Mengyan nodded rapidly. Fortunately, Yun Fu hadn't betrayed her, otherwise she would definitely not have made it through today.
Situ Yao stared at her face for a while, but didn't find any clues. Finally, he had no choice but to believe what she said.
"Also, Su Mengyan, if you want to live well by my side, you should put away all those little thoughts from now on." Situ Yao warned her.
Su Mengyan was frightened by his gaze and shuddered, wanting to cry but unable to, "Your Highness, when did this servant ever have other thoughts?"
"When you first met Cui Mixue, were you still thinking about bringing her and me together?" Situ Yao had a pair of eyes that could see through people's hearts, and Su Mengyan had nowhere to hide in front of him.
In fact, she did not give up this plan, because as long as Cui Mixue and Situ Yao were together, she could leave the East Palace and no longer have to worry all day long.
Faced with Situ Yao's anger, Su Mengyan remained silent.
