Chapter 141 Yun Ran's End
In the private room of Xiangyun Building, Wei Sisi and Yanzhi saw Yunli, who was dressed in a white dress and without any makeup, sitting there quietly, smiling at the two people at the door.
Seeing this, the two hurriedly walked up to Yunli and saluted, saying: "Greetings, Princess! Greetings, Princess!"
Yun Li hurriedly helped the two of them up: "What are you doing? We are sisters, don't be so polite!"
Wei Sisi said, "Hey, at the dinner that day, I didn't dare to approach you and talk to you. Firstly, there were too many people around you and I was afraid of disturbing you. Secondly, you are a princess now, and I was afraid that if we got too close, others would say bad things about you!"
Yun Li laughed and said, "We are close, why do people say bad things about me instead of you?"
Wei Sisi curled her lips and said, "Of course they're saying you're lowering yourself by being friends with the daughter of a third-rank official like me! What can they say about me? They're just saying I'm a suck-up! I don't care about that, since they can't get close to me anyway..."
"Haha...you think too much..."
Yun Li burst out laughing. When they met again, their identities had changed drastically. Xia Yanzhi was married, and she was already a mother of two children. She was also the princess of Lanxi Kingdom. However, they were still friends.
"Okay, no matter what others think or say, we are still friends!"
Xia Yanzhi: "Yunli, oh, no, princess! I was shocked when I found out you were a princess, but after thinking about it, it's not surprising. You are worthy of the status of a princess of a country!"
Yun Li smiled at the two of them and repeatedly reminded them: "Let's just call each other by our names in private! We're all friends, so how was it in the past? We can still ask each other in the future, okay?"
The two smiled at each other and nodded.
During the meal, Wei Sisi gnawed on a chicken leg, her mouth full of oil, and couldn't help but gossip: "Yun Li, is the story between you and Prince Yu true?"
Yun Li didn't react for a moment. "Huh? What's the matter?"
"People are saying that you're living in Prince Yu's mansion instead of the post station, and that you've fallen for Prince Yu. They're saying that you're pursuing him!"
"So outrageous?"
Wei Sisi nodded continuously: "Yes, yes, then why do you live in Prince Yu's Mansion?"
Yun Li smiled: "Because we are really together!"
The chicken leg in Wei Sisi's hand fell into the bowl. "Ah!"
Xia Yanzhi also stared at her with wide eyes "Ah!"
"Are you that shocked? Don't you think we're a good match?"
The two nodded and shook their heads. Wei Sisi said seriously, "Although you are a princess now, as your friend, I still need to express my opinion. Look at you and Prince Yu. From the looks of it, you two are a match made in heaven, a perfect match!
But, it's rumored that the Prince of Yu is a murderer, ruthless, and cold-blooded... Wouldn't it be scary to be with such a person? Just thinking about it makes me feel like my life is in danger!
Sister, you are a princess. You can marry a prince consort and keep as many concubines as you want. There are all kinds of handsome men for you to choose from. Why should we hang ourselves on the tree of the royal family? It’s not worth it! It’s not worth it!
The King of Kings is poisonous, sisters, you must stay away from him!"
Yun Li wanted to laugh but she kept it in until it became too uncomfortable: "Hahaha...hahaha...hahaha...Wei Sisi, you are such a living treasure!
Who told you that the King of Yu killed countless people? Where did you hear that? It's too unreliable."
"It's a rumor, everyone in the capital knows it!"
"You also said that these are just rumors. How many of those rumors are reliable? Only you believe them!"
"Well, I've said everything I should and shouldn't say. You can do whatever you want!"
Yun Li nodded. She knew Wei Sisi was doing this for her own good, but she wouldn't take it to heart. She knew exactly what kind of person Helian Chi was, and she felt deeply what he did.
Well, when she is free one day, she will invite Wei Sisi and Xia Yanzhi to come to the Prince Yu's Mansion for tea and let them meet the two children. Then they will understand everything!
…
"Oh, I forgot to tell you something. Yun Ran died in the Sky Prison!"
Yun Li was surprised: "Dead? When?"
"The day before you came back, I heard that after Prince Duan died, everyone in Prince Yu's mansion was imprisoned in the Sky Prison. According to the rules, treason should be punished by killing all nine generations of the family. However, the emperor still had some mercy on her and only punished the people in Prince Yu's mansion. She, the Princess of Yu, would definitely not be able to escape responsibility.
Before she was imprisoned, she went back to the Prime Minister's Mansion to plead for mercy, asking the Prime Minister to ask the Emperor to spare his life. She said that she had no knowledge of what Prince Duan had done and had no involvement in it.
But the Prime Minister's Mansion is within the Nine Clan, and they can't protect themselves, so how can they plead for her? I heard that the Prime Minister sent someone to send her back to Prince Duan's Mansion, and then she was locked up in prison. Because there was no one to protect her, she was bullied in prison.
Finally, he couldn't bear it anymore and hit his head against the wall and died!"
After hearing this, Yun Li felt a pang of regret in her heart. It was really a different world, and things have changed. She felt as if Yun Ran's wedding had just happened not long ago, but it had already been almost two years. She had been a princess for two years, but she had not had many good days. She had only been tormenting herself.
"What about He Miaomiao?"
"That's undeniable! She's the only one left alive in Prince Duan's mansion! She's pregnant with Prince Duan's child! I heard her father privately went to the emperor to plead for mercy, asking him to spare her life for the sake of the child.
Finally, the emperor looked at He Miaomiao's big belly and felt that he could not bear to kill an unborn child. After all, the child was his grandson, so he agreed. However, he asked the He family to borrow He Miaomiao back and change her name from then on. The child could not follow the royal surname Helian and had to be an ordinary person!
Of course, the He family agreed. Saving her life was better than anything else, so He Miaomiao was taken back home! From then on, she was renamed Zhou Miaoyan, taking her mother's surname, and was said to be a distant cousin visiting her aunt!
Yun Li was not surprised after hearing this. If the emperor did not take any feelings into consideration and disposed of He Miaomiao and the baby in her belly, that would be really scary.
He Miaomiao has to pay the price for her actions!
…
After the three of them had dinner, Yunli said goodbye to the two of them. She brought cherries to Yueyanfang.
I've been gone for so long, and I don't know how Yueyanfang is doing. It's time for some new products! This time, I'm going to stock up on lipstick, shampoo, and shower gel!
As for the Mankouxiang hotpot restaurant, she was planning to open one in Beijing! Anyway, there were so many hotpot bases of various flavors in the space!
She plans to buy a few acres of land in the countryside and hire some farmers to grow various vegetables and fruits to supply the hot pot restaurant.
