It turns out that his drunken ramblings on his wedding night weren't calling for her, not for Han Yuanyuan, but for that woman she had never thought of.
Before Yi Chenqi was named Crown Prince, he was the Empress's only son. He was high and mighty. Liu Yuanmeng had imagined what kind of girl he would like, but it was never someone like An Yuan'er.
She tried so hard to become the person she imagined he might like. But then he suddenly told her that all her efforts were in vain. The woman he liked couldn't be imitated.
What about all her efforts over the years?
Liu Yuanmeng lost control. She took her anger out on the decorations in the study, and a loud sound of shattering ceramics echoed from the room.
Hearing the noise, the guards at the door called out from outside, "Your Highness, is there anything I can help you with?"
Yi Chenqi simply said, "It's nothing. Just a few ornaments were broken."
The guards withdrew.
Yi Chenqi let her vent until Liu Yuanmeng was tired and couldn't throw anymore.
Liu Yuanmeng slumped to the ground, staring at him with a dazed look.
She said blankly, "Yuanmeng will not leave the Crown Prince's residence. Since Yuanmeng has already married the Crown Prince, she belongs to him in life and in death. Yuanmeng can choose not to be the Crown Princess. If the Crown Prince marries a new Crown Princess in the future, Yuanmeng is willing to give up her position. However, she hasn't arrived yet, so Yuanmeng will not leave. If the Crown Prince insists on divorcing me, then it would be better to just give Yuanmeng a quick death."
After saying that, Liu Yuanmeng actually pulled out a hairpin and placed it around her neck.
She strained her hand, and blood flowed down her neck. If she had pressed a few more inches deeper, she would not have survived.
Liu Yuanmeng was, after all, a woman of deep and passionate love, but loving someone who didn't love her was a tragedy from the very beginning.
Liu Yuanmeng continued, "The Crown Prince has just ascended to the throne, and everything is still unstable. At this time, news of the deposed Crown Princess will inevitably cause public speculation. The former Crown Prince's affairs were already closely related to An Yuan'er. If the Crown Prince divorces me now and marries An Yuan'er, what does the Crown Prince think public opinion will think? It will likely push An Yuan'er into the spotlight, making her the subject of everyone's gossip. Even if the Crown Prince doesn't care about Yuanmeng, can he bear to let his beloved suffer like this?"
Yi Chenqi was originally full of enthusiasm, but after listening to Liu Yuanmeng's words, he felt that there was some truth to them.
The blood marriage incident had already damaged Xiao Yuan'er's reputation. If he insisted on divorcing his wife and marrying her, it might not be a good thing for her, and it could even backfire.
Liu Yuanmeng added, "The Crown Prince might as well welcome her into the family first. Once everyone has gradually accepted this matter, Yuanmeng will then give her the position of Crown Princess."
Yi Chenqi's thoughts raced as he analyzed the pros and cons. After weighing the options, it seemed that what Liu Yuanmeng had suggested was the best solution for both him and Xiao Yuan'er.
However, Yi Chenqi didn't truly understand An Yuan'er. If An Yuan'er truly loved someone, she wouldn't care about reputation or status; all she cared about was that person. And if she didn't love someone, even if everything was perfect, she would still be unwilling.
"Let's do as you say. It's late. Someone, escort the Crown Princess back." Yi Chenqi arranged for someone to escort Liu Yuanmeng back.
On the way back, Liu Yuanmeng burst into tears.
The most tragic thing in the world is that a woman has to rely on her husband's kindness towards another woman in order to keep him from being abandoned.
But Liu Yuanmeng was willing to be such a tool.
