Qi Yu watched helplessly as the emperor left the palace banquet holding the hand of the woman who should have belonged to him, his eyes bloodshot.
That woman originally belonged to him!
After returning to the princess's mansion, Qi Yu was even more distracted.
Princess Anle saw this and sarcastically said, "Could it be that you saw that little bitch Jiang Yi again and couldn't bear to leave her?"
Qi Yu had tolerated Princess Anle for a long time, and today, Jiang Yi provoked her at the palace banquet. She retorted directly, "Ayi is gentle and considerate, unlike you, who is unruly, unreasonable, vicious and cruel, just like your father, the emperor."
"If your father hadn't tempted me with benefits, how could I have lost Ayi?"
But in the end, the emperor's promise to make his and Princess Anle's child the crown prince turned out to be empty talk.
Princess Anle was shocked that Qi Yu dared to say that to her. She was about to rebuke him subconsciously, but suddenly an idea struck her, "You really are obsessed with that little bitch Jiang Yi."
"But what's the use? She is now my father's woman. She has to be pressed under my father every night and bear children for him. What can you do?"
"Can you take her away? Can you run away with her?"
"You can't. You can only watch helplessly and say a few harmless words in private. When you are in front of my father, you are like a dog."
"Everyone knows that my father knew Jiang Yi long before he arranged for us to get married. He must have had feelings for Jiang Yi at that time, so he used threats and bribes to coerce you into marrying me. You, a fool, actually agreed. If you don't lose the one you love, who will?"
"What can you do now? You can't do anything."
Qi Yu was so excited that his chest heaved up and down, and he couldn't calm down for a long time.
Princess Anle watched quietly, she was deliberately provoking Qi Yu.
Being abandoned by the emperor, imprisoned in the palace, and even facing the possibility that a bastard would compete for her favor in the future, and her power and status would no longer exist, under all these threats, her admiration for Qi Yu was as light as a feather.
If Qi Yu could seduce Jiang Yi into having an affair with her, then no matter how much her father liked Jiang Yi, she would fall out of favor.
Including the child in Jiang Yi's belly, it would become a bastard and might not even be born.
Princess Anle showed a creepy smile on her face, and Qi Yu was also frightened by her.
Princess Anle said: "Do you still want to be with Jiang Yi? This princess will help you."
"My father instigated you to marry me, and then brought Jiang Yi to the palace openly. Because of this, you missed the love you loved. Now Jiang Yi has become my father's woman. If you possess Jiang Yi, it can be regarded as revenge on my father."
Possessing Jiang Yi...
Qi Yu couldn't help but recall Jiang Yi whom he saw at the palace banquet today. She was so white that she glowed. After not seeing her for a long time, she looked even more plump and beautiful. However, even looking at her from afar, he couldn't help himself.
Qi Yu's breathing suddenly became rapid.
Princess Anle sneered at him, "Is Jiang Yi really that good?"
Qi Yu raised his eyes and had already made up his mind, "How are you going to help me?"
Princess Anle rolled her eyes and said, "I would like to help you, but the masters around me were all killed by my father. There should be many masters in the Chengguo Mansion."
"You might as well find a capable person to break into the palace at night, give Jiang Yi a love letter, and ask her out for a meeting."
"She was so fond of you before that she would certainly agree to meet you privately upon seeing this letter."
Qi Yu's eyes lit up and he wrote a letter to Jiang Yi that night.
Princess Anle had a very good idea. After receiving the letter, Jiang Yi would definitely not dare to tell the emperor. As long as Jiang Yi and Qi Yu met in private, she would almost be convicted.
By then...
Little did she know that Jiang Yi took a quick look at the contents of the letter and handed her over to the emperor.
The emperor took one look at it and was so angry that he wanted to tear the whole paper into pieces.
Jiang Yi quickly stopped the emperor, who immediately got angry and said, "Why, do you really want to meet him in private?"
"What sister Jiang Yi? I've never called you sister."
"I also asked you to come to Changxin Palace at this time tomorrow. I want to kill this Qi Yu!"
Jiang Yi quickly tried to appease the emperor, saying, "Your Majesty is the only one in my heart. I asked Your Majesty to keep this letter only as evidence."
"After all, he is the prince of Chengguo. The emperor cannot execute him for no reason."
After hearing what Jiang Yi said, the emperor finally calmed down. "This Qi Yu, how dare he covet my woman? I will not let him off easily no matter what."
"Just based on this letter, Qi Yu's crime cannot be punished."
It’s not that it’s impossible, but the emperor feels it’s not enough.
He had never thought about doing anything to Qi Yu before, but this man married his daughter and still refused to give up on Jiang Yi.
The emperor couldn't bear the thought that there was someone in the dark who was coveting Jiang Yi.
The emperor narrowed his eyes slightly, "Then I will arrange for someone to meet with him privately."
Even if it meant luring the snake out of its hole, the emperor did not want to tarnish Jiang Yi's reputation.
Jiang Yi knew that she had done enough to deceive the emperor when they first met. Now the emperor already wanted Qi Yu dead, and she didn't even need to say anything. So she simply did nothing and just watched the emperor make the arrangements.
In the end, the emperor chose a person who looked similar to Jiang Yi and went to meet Qi Yu the next night.
As for him, he and Jiang Yi watched the show in the dark.
This time he wanted to let Jiang Yi see Qi Yu's true face completely, and then completely remove Qi Yu from his heart.
