Han Yunqi stared at Shen Ye, her gaze sharp as a dagger, causing Shen Ye to involuntarily feel a chill run down his spine. "When you were fifteen, your father was imprisoned and then 'committed suicide,' leaving your family devastated. You then raised your younger sister alone. Your sister should be sixteen now, right? Am I right?"
"Yes, I wonder what Your Highness means?" Shen Ye's face remained smiling.
"I'll give you five thousand taels of gold. Take your sister and leave Chang'an. Go wherever you want, as long as you leave this place," she said calmly.
"Oh? Why would the princess give me so much gold for no reason?"
"You're a smart person, there are some things I don't need to explain, right?" Han Yunqi looked at Shen Ye with a cold expression, a faint smile playing on her lips.
"I am foolish and truly do not understand what Your Highness means by these words?"
Han Yunqi rolled her eyes at Shen Ye. "The prince is a chosen one of heaven. Even I, who am in the backyard, know about your little affair. If you don't leave and avoid suspicion, the prince's reputation will be ruined once it gets out. You are the descendant of a disgraced official, and no one will care what you do. But the prince is different. Do you understand what I'm saying?"
"Excuse me, if there's nothing else, I'll take my leave now."
"I've made myself perfectly clear. Think it over carefully before you reply," Han Yunqi's voice sounded from behind.
"No need to think about it, I won't leave."
"You..." Han Yunqi trembled, paused, and then said, "Besides the five thousand taels of gold, I'll add another condition: overturn your father's case and clear his name. How about that?"
I expected her to say that.
She chuckled late at night, her face completely open and honest. "The conditions offered by the Princess are indeed very tempting, and I am quite interested. But if I leave, how heartbroken will the Prince be?"
Han Yunqi became agitated, "What exactly is your relationship with him?"
"What relationship?" Shen Ye snorted coldly, no longer wanting to be respectful to her. His mission here was to keep the two of them apart, so he mocked, "Doesn't Your Highness know what our relationship is? I'm sorry, but the Prince told me last night that you're a complete idiot. He doesn't like you at all, and he married you just to have you as a decoration. Oh, I forgot to mention, the Prince has absolutely no interest in you women!"
Han Yunqi's expression changed drastically again. She suddenly said sternly, "You are shameless. No matter how stubborn you are, you can't change your intention to get close to the prince."
She continued contemptuously, "Yu Changjun, you're gay yourself, and you're not quite right in the head, so you think you can turn others gay? Aren't you just relying on your weak and timid appearance? Do you think the Prince would overturn your father's case for you? Let me tell you, the Prince isn't one of those idiots! If you want to overturn your father's case by selling your ass, you can find someone else. Going to the Prince is really the most unwise choice."
"Hehe, really? But the prince has a thing for me. He was really something last night. He said I was his darling and you were a complete idiot!" Shen Ye provocatively said. Since they were going to become enemies anyway, he might as well settle it once and for all and make her give up on him sooner.
Han Yunqi's chest heaved with anger. "You think you can be invincible just because you're shameless? Yu Changjun, you're nothing but the prince's male concubine. No matter what, it doesn't change the fact that you can't bear him any children! Hmph, let me tell you, you think you can win the prince's heart for life just by relying on your pitiful appearance? Bah, that's pure wishful thinking!"
