Chapter 118 What Princess Doesn’t Want to Become an Empress (8)



Yunxiao waved his hand: "No need! Go and investigate Consort Ye's whereabouts as soon as possible, find out everything, no matter how small."

"yes!"

The man was astonished.

As the most well-informed intelligence center in the entire Ancient Moon Kingdom, Lingxiao Pavilion only bestows bone flutes upon a select few of the most distinguished individuals, each of whom receives one, but each has only one opportunity to use it.

After use, it must be recycled; otherwise, the bone flute grants the user an opportunity to request a favor from the Lingxiao Pavilion.

What's wrong with Master?

Lingxiao Pavilion acted swiftly.

Just three days later, a stack of paper documents was placed in front of Yun Lian's desk, delivered personally by Yun Xiao.

Yun Lian took it, her fingers intentionally or unintentionally brushing against his fingertips.

The area touched instantly felt a tingling sensation, and even the tip of my heart trembled.

Just as she was about to pull her hand away, Yunxiao grabbed her fingertips tightly. The two were very close, and his tall figure cast a shadow, enveloping Yunlian in his arms.

"Does Miss Yun still stand by what she said last time?"

Yun Lian ate, drank, and played happily every day, completely forgetting what she had said just a few days ago.

Despite her blank expression, she took the opportunity to move closer to Yunxiao's embrace.

"Of course it counts, but I don't know what you think, young master."

After a long pause, Yunxiao finally managed to say, "I will think about it carefully."

After saying that, he disappeared in the blink of an eye, as if a dog was chasing him.

"Tsk tsk tsk, they really came and went in a hurry."

Yun Lian didn't care about his departure and leisurely looked at the messages.

It's fair to say it's mediocre, with a large portion of the story focusing on the emperor's affection for the imperial concubine and the concubine's unbearable pain at losing her child.

After Yun Lian read about how the emperor, for her sake, did not appoint his eldest son as crown prince but instead appointed the second prince, she casually threw the book away.

"So it seems this bone flute isn't very useful after all."

Unbeknownst to Yun Lian, the moment the bone flute was played, Lingxiao Pavilion had barely begun investigating the Imperial Concubine's whereabouts when a large crowd gathered from all directions, their eyes gleaming with dazzling light.

"It must be the princess who has appeared! My Beiming has finally found its master!"

The eldest prince's palace.

The eldest prince was furious whenever he saw Huang Ni.

If it weren't for this damned woman's sudden appearance, how could he have been outmaneuvered by the Crown Prince?

Yunzhu gritted her teeth, her eyes filled with disgust.

"Yun Lian, Yun Xiao, I will never let you go! Do you think you can escape my revenge? Heh, soon you will still have to get married according to my plan."

"Your Highness, I can't wait to see you lose face!"

Huang Ni knelt on the ground, trembling.

This pervert, in order to cover up his injury, made her serve him in bed every day, but every time he made her kneel on the ground and wail.

The next day, all she faced upon going out was the revenge of the Imperial Concubine and others. They all thought she was favored by the First Prince, but who could understand that she had been married to the First Prince for half a month, and apart from the first time when she was confused, the First Prince had not touched her since.

The eldest prince's pleasant voice rang out, yet it was more terrifying than a ghost.

"Louder, haven't you eaten?"

Huang Ni, her face pale, shouted at the top of her lungs, fearing that the eldest prince might whip her again if he was displeased.

She really regretted it.

She shouldn't have gone to the cabin to get revenge on Yun Lian. If she hadn't gone there, she could at least have married into a family of equal social standing and become a proper wife, instead of suffering such humiliation.

When the Crown Prince returned to Lingxiao Pavilion, he ordered all his subordinates to investigate Yun Lian. It was at this time that he unexpectedly learned that Yun Lian was not only the petty thief from last time, but also the child that the Prime Minister had picked up.

Looking at the portrait of her fierce and aggressive appearance, Yunxiao remembered Yunzhu's original plan, and her ears turned red.

Yunzhu's original intention was to frame Yunlian for having an affair with him in public, thereby damaging their reputations and forcing them to be linked together.

Unexpectedly, Yunzhu was scratched by a wildcat. The wildcat saved him, and of course, he had to make Yunzhu suffer the consequences of his actions.

Yunxiao's heart started racing as he thought about her words about marrying him.

Treasure Pavilion.

Yun Lian enjoyed herself for a long time until Yun Na lifted her confinement, at which point she felt that life had meaning.

Yun Na was furious, but she stood in front of Yun Lian with a fake smile: "Little sister, I misunderstood you before, you shouldn't hold it against me, right?"

Yun Lian affectionately linked arms with her, ignoring her stiff body.

"What are you saying, sister? We are the best of sisters, why talk about arguing or not arguing?"

As for me, no one helped my sister with all of this. I feel so guilty. Sister, it's all my fault."

"How could that be? I'm already very happy to be remembered by my sister."

Seeing her feigning ignorance, Yunna finally lost her temper.

"By the way, little sister, besides losing a jade hairpin, I also lost a jade pendant in your courtyard before. Did you see it?"

Yunna stared intently into her eyes, afraid of missing any detail.

Yun Lian blinked, looking bewildered: "Huh? Sister, you searched my whole courtyard before but couldn't find your things? What do they look like? Why don't you tell me and I'll go look for them for you?"

Yunna couldn't discern anything from her expression and gave an awkward smile.

"No, since my sister hasn't seen it, would you mind if I went to your old courtyard to look for it again?"

“I don’t mind. Even if you level that courtyard, it won’t matter. I’m living in the Treasure Pavilion now, and I’m very comfortable.”

Yunna almost ground one of her teeth to powder.

How can I not feel uncomfortable?

The Treasure Pavilion was filled with rare and precious treasures. She had asked her father for a long time but had not been able to get them. Why should Yun Lian, an outsider who was picked up, be allowed to live in such a nice place?

"I haven't been out in the fresh air for a long time, and I suddenly feel unwell, so I won't bother my sister."

"Okay, you're welcome to visit Treasure Pavilion anytime, sister."

Yun Lian looked at her vulnerable face and couldn't help but laugh to herself.

Is the defense broken already?

If she were to go directly to the Emperor and successfully claim kinship, wouldn't that infuriate Yun Na to death?

However, Yun Lian doesn't want to acknowledge the Emperor as her relative so soon; she wants to wait for Yun Na to make a move.

She was confined to her quarters, while the eldest prince, at the center of the incident, married Huang Ni as a concubine. No matter how you look at it, all three of them are inextricably linked to the incident at the crown prince's birthday ceremony.

She wanted to wait and see what other tricks they had up their sleeve.

To prevent her from starting too high and giving these people the opportunity to frame her.

Yun Lian and the others' opportunity will come soon.

To ward off bad luck for Yunna, the Prime Minister's wife had no choice but to take her two sisters to the temple.

The mother and son, deeply in love, sat in a carriage, their laughter ringing out continuously.

Yun Lian was herded into another carriage, but instead of feeling disappointed as they had expected, she had the whole carriage to herself and was quite content.

Suddenly the carriage jolted, and shouts of fighting and killing rose and fell outside.

"Protect the lady, young lady! There's an assassin!"

Yun Lian lifted a corner of the curtain.

That's quite a move. They even found an assassin to kill her, and even used her elderly mother as a tool.

Although Yun Lian was waiting for a backup plan, she didn't want to wait to die. Taking advantage of the chaos, she quietly drove the carriage forward.

The assassins who had been shouting and threatening around the carriage suddenly became limp, but their shouts remained strong.

"Quick, after them! One got away!"
