When he heard that Li Mengyue was the peasant girl who saved him as his cousin had said, he had a bad feeling.
However, what his cousin said next was hard for him to accept.
My cousin said that he fell in love with Li Mengyue, so he stayed in Xingyi Village and had a house built for him. This was so that he could get Li Mengyue first and marry her to the Li family as the Crown Prince's Consort as soon as possible.
Seeing his cousin's serious look, he didn't want to tell the truth and hurt his cousin.
But he also knew that in this situation, it was best to cut the Gordian knot and make things clear as soon as possible, so that his cousin wouldn't get deeper and deeper into trouble and affect the relationship between the two brothers.
What's more, he didn't want him and his cousin to become enemies because of a woman.
So he told everyone that Li Mengyue was the woman he was looking for.
After hearing this, his cousin remained silent for a long time. He knew that his cousin understood.
My cousin knew that he had an affair with a strange woman.
The woman is Li Mengyue, which means that Li Mengyue is already his cousin's woman.
As an older brother, he naturally cannot compete with his younger brother for a woman. Even though he really likes Li Mengyue and wants to marry Li Mengyue to the Fu family, he can only tell himself to give up.
He just told his cousin the fact that Li Mengyue was his woman.
The cousin simply left the house to him and took Afeng away.
"My Lord, the room has been cleaned."
"Um."
"Your Highness, it's time for dinner. I'll get you something to eat."
"Need not."
"No, I'll do it."
The first two words were said by Xie Ruiyuan, and the second two were said by Qingxuan. When they heard Qingxi say that he wanted to cook, they subconsciously spoke out to stop him.
It’s not that they aren’t hungry, they simply dislike Qingxi’s cooking skills. None of them want to force themselves to go to the toilet frequently and have diarrhea, or endure stomachache just to have a meal.
Qingxi, who was originally in high spirits, was not unhappy when she saw that her attempt to cook was rejected. Instead, she wanted to go to the village to find out the news.
"Your Highness, what smells so fragrant in my village?"
Qingxi, who was opening the door and walking out, felt her nose twitching as a strange and tempting fragrance rushed into her nose.
"Prince, Qingxuan, do you smell it?"
"Needless to say, I never thought that someone in such a small mountain village could have such superb cooking skills. Just the aroma alone makes my mouth water."
Qingxuan was right. At this moment, all the villagers passing by Li's house would stop.
However, they didn't dare to stay for long, as they were worried that they would lose control of themselves and would flatter the Li family and ask what delicious food they had cooked.
"What delicious food has the Li family cooked again? The aroma is so fragrant that it makes me dizzy."
"Of course it must be Miss Yue who's here. Only Miss Yue can make such delicious food."
"Li An and Wan Niang are so lucky. After losing their adopted daughter, they now have their biological daughter. Not only did she help heal Li An's leg, but Wan Niang has also become younger and more beautiful."
"Of course not. I have nothing to worry about when I eat delicious food and drink spicy drinks every day. I am getting younger and younger."
"I really envy Wanniang."
"You are envious. Wouldn't it be nice if you also had a daughter like Yue?"
"Get lost, everyone in the village knows that Yue is a powerful woman. How could I have such a powerful daughter?"
"No, no, this fragrance is too irritating, I can't stand it!"
