Cui Yulu blinked her obsidian-like eyes and looked at Xu Wanqing.
"Actually, I shouldn't be telling you this now, but I just can't help it. You know that the Emperor recently held a selection of consorts, and that princess from the barbarian country didn't take a liking to the Emperor, but she did take a liking to Han Yu'an, and the Emperor agreed to it, so their marriage is a done deal. I think you need to know these things."
Cui Yulu chuckled. Han Yu'an has always been outstanding; he was just a hidden gem back then. Now that everything has improved, he will naturally be discovered.
"But he probably has feelings for you. I've seen that barbarian princess, and she looks a lot like you. He probably has feelings for you."
Cui Yulu chuckled lightly. If I were around, how could he agree to be with another woman?
Seeing that she remained silent, Xu Wanqing gently nudged her: "Do you think what I said is too true? I just didn't want you to be kept in the dark."
"Which man in the Great Yuan Dynasty didn't have three wives and four concubines? It's normal for men."
She forced herself to hold back her tears; heaven knows how much pain she was in at that moment.
"Since you're willing for your man to have concubines, then you should marry the prince. With your status as a saintess, you can be the prince's principal wife, and I can be his concubine. At least the prince will be 100% sincere towards you."
"Heh, what are you saying? Can you really tolerate your man having three wives and four concubines?"
Xu Wanqing had come to terms with it and said with a gentle smile, "If that man were a prince, and if that wife were you, I would be willing."
But I can't accept it. I can't tolerate my man having someone else in his heart, laughing and joking with other women after being intimate with my family. I can't do that.
Cui Yulu didn't speak, but silently rejected it in her heart.
However, a sweet smile still appeared on her face, for some acts of kindness are destined to be carried out quietly.
Cui Yulu had already made up her mind to quietly carry out her plan.
Looking at the little mute girl lying on the bed, barely alive, Lu Changfeng asked sarcastically, "Was it worth it?"
"It's worth it, it's all worth it."
The little mute boy gestured weakly, a happy expression on his face.
"Fool, you're a complete idiot. That woman isn't worth it. Don't forget your blood feud, and this woman is the perfect tool for your revenge. I advise you not to be foolish."
"Could you please not use her? How about I kill Fu Xiaoyu instead? Please don't touch Yu Lu, okay?"
"You should rest well. Don't worry about what happens next. I'll take care of it."
After Lu Changfeng finished speaking, he turned and left the house, leaving the little mute boy alone in the room, lost in thought.
Soon, news of Fu Xiaoyu's return spread throughout the capital, and the emperor himself came to the Prince's residence to see Fu Xiaoyu.
To avoid unnecessary trouble, Cui Yulu ultimately decided to return to Ghost Cave Village.
"Your Highness, I haven't figured out how to face the people here yet. I'd better go back to Ghost Cave Village. You have things to take care of here, so don't worry about me."
Fu Xiaoyu didn't say anything, knowing that nothing she said would change her mind, so she readily nodded.
"Since you've already made up your mind, then go ahead. I'll take care of things here and then come join you."
His gaze was somewhat ambiguous. Cui Yulu did not refuse, but nodded: "Okay, I'll wait for you in the Ghost Cave."
No sooner had he finished speaking than someone outside rushed in to report that the Emperor had arrived.
"Go on your way, I'm leaving, no need to see me off."
Cui Yulu quickly got up and left the palace. To avoid trouble, she left through a secret passage.
Sure enough, Han Yu'an was anxiously waiting outside to see Fu Xiaoyu.
Since Fu Xiaoyu is alive, Cui Yulu must also be alive. If we find one or two, we can easily find the other one as well.
However, to his surprise, only Fu Xiaoyu and Xu Wanqing came out together, and Cui Yulu was nowhere to be seen.
After exchanging simple greetings, the group sat down.
"Sixth Brother, let me see you! I've missed you so much! I thought you were like Mother and wouldn't come back. I never expected you to come back. I knew you wouldn't abandon me."
"Yes, Sixth Brother won't abandon you. Don't worry, Sixth Brother will always be by your side."
Fu Xiaofan nodded in satisfaction. He was overjoyed to finally see his sixth brother alive.
"Your Highness, is Yulu still alive?"
After hesitating for a long time, Han Yu'an finally asked the question. He had heard that Fu Xiaoyu had returned with a woman. Could it be that the woman was not Cui Yulu but Xu Wanqing?
"Hmph, you're already a barbarian prince consort, it's really rare that you still think about whether Yulu is alive or dead."
Xu Wanqing glanced at Han Yu'an with disdain, truly feeling sorry for Yu Lu.
Han Yu'an blushed at what was said and turned to look at the Emperor. He was never good at talking to women, especially women like Xu Wanqing.
“Miss Xu is mistaken. Yu’an has not yet received the imperial decree, so the marriage is not yet settled. If Miss Yulu were alive, I would like to let the two of them discuss it. Miss Yulu is a holy maiden from a foreign land, and her status is even lower than that of a princess. Therefore, I plan to make the princess the principal wife and Miss Yulu a concubine. How about that?”
Fu Xiaofan looked at his sixth brother with a smile. He knew that since his sixth brother was alright, then Miss Yulu must be alright too.
He understood Fu Xiaoyu; he would rather get hurt himself than let Cui Yulu get hurt. Since he was standing safely in front of him, then Miss Yulu must be alright too.
"Is this also your idea?"
Fu Xiaoyu looked at Han Yu'an with a handsome face as gloomy as a deep pool and asked coldly.
