Chapter 502 Ancient Extra 1
On the day Cheng Yun was appointed Crown Prince, King Huai and a group of ministers went to pay homage to the Crown Prince.
In the past, he was the eldest among his brothers, and his younger brothers naturally looked at him with respect. But now, the prince's status is naturally even more transcendent. He is the crown prince, and he has to pay respect when he sees the crown prince.
King Huai could not help but look at him, he was dressed in the clothes of a crown prince, his dignity was far beyond his reach. As the enthronement ceremony was completed, King Huai felt as if something had reached the bottom of his heart, and at the same time, as if he had let go of something completely.
Yu naturally knew about such a big event today. Tomorrow, someone of her status would naturally have to enter the palace. Chen Qing was already the Imperial Noble Consort, and the prince had canonized her to be even more noble. She and other ladies of high rank would have to enter the palace to pay homage to her. Now, she was only one title away from being the queen.
When King Huai returned, someone reported back. Yu knew about it but pretended not to know.
She and King Huai had a falling out. The couple had a bad relationship to begin with, and she even slapped him that day. Of course, the slap was nothing. What mattered was what she said that day.
What she said was actually intended to restrain King Huai. After all, King Huai had the intention, and Yu knew about it and clearly disapproved. King Huai could not act rashly. At this point, the relationship between them naturally became worse than before.
Yu knew what was going on, but she had long since given up hope. All her hopes were now on the child. She was even thankful that King Huai had spoken to her about it, otherwise what he had done behind her back would have been the most frightening thing.
King Huai was in mixed mood.
Cheng Yun's enthronement ceremony ended today. This matter is a foregone conclusion. He has been confused since Xuanyuan Ling announced the enthronement of the prince in the court. Later, he was slapped by Yu and realized that he was much more afraid of Xuanyuan Ling than he thought. The ambition in his heart was not as great as this fear, especially after Chu Linglong's affairs were revealed.
It was rumored that it was Concubine Zhou who assassinated him, and Chu Linglong knew about it but did not report it. When King Huai found out about it, his first reaction was, why did Chu Linglong know about it but did not report it?
What good is there in having my father assassinated? Isn't it because the crown prince hasn't been appointed yet? If this really happened, he would be the eldest son.
Thinking about it this way, it was a good thing that Xuanyuan Ling didn't summon him to ask anything these days, which meant that he was not implicated. After all, the emperor knew about their private dealings, and not implicating him showed his trust.
As for being sad? Or more accurately, complicated. Of course, it has been a long time now and my mind has calmed down.
After returning to the mansion, he walked for a long time and thought: "Go get this king's Xiao Lai."
He played a tune in the garden.
Then, looking at the layout of the garden, he remembered that it was Yu who ordered it. She was in charge of all matters big and small in the huge Huaiwang Mansion. It is undeniable that Yu, the Huaiwang Princess, was competent. Today was the day when the Crown Prince was enthroned. That day, Yu spoke harshly and somehow ended up in Yu's yard.
When he arrived, the servants in Yu's courtyard naturally knew the rules and saluted in unison. Yu was also well-behaved. He looked at Yu and bowed slightly: "Greetings to the prince."
"Today, the king will have dinner at your place."
Yu listened. Today was neither the first nor the fifteenth day of the lunar month. He did not come often in the past. Although he came more often after having the child, he mostly came to see the child. So she took the child over to have a look. She thought that after that slap, he would be completely cold to her in the future, but he came suddenly and said he wanted to have dinner.
Yu couldn't figure out what he was going to do today, but he was a prince after all. Should she kick him out when he came to have dinner?
King Huai didn't know what Yu was thinking. He was holding the flute in his hand, but Yu didn't notice it. He knew she didn't notice it, but he suddenly asked, "Does the princess like music?"
Yu thought he was going to ask something, but now she actually saw him holding the flute. However, Zhang Ri just said, "I don't like it."
King Huai choked.
That dinner was also very silent.
The atmosphere was not good when Prince Huai had dinner with Yu Shi before, so it was normal for the atmosphere to be bad today. Even though it was getting dark, Yu Shi saw that Prince Huai had no intention of leaving, so she couldn't help but start with the conversation: "Prince, I am not feeling well today, but Qiao Shi is feeling well and is also thinking about you."
It's so blatant to chase people away.
King Huai didn't come here often before, and Yu Shi actually pushed him to go somewhere else, but at that time he thought there was nothing wrong with her arrangement. But now, he was really unhappy. He looked at Yu Shi and asked, "Why is it inconvenient?"
Yu had never thought he would ask this question. How could he care about this in the past? But since the question had been said, she replied, "As a woman, there are always times when it is not convenient."
Prince Huai looked at Yu with a stern face and said, "It's okay. Since the princess is not feeling well, I should accompany her for a while."
Yu was totally surprised to hear him say this. What did he mean? He had to do it today? Now that they were at odds, how could he suddenly fall in love with her and think it would be better to be with her?
Of course, Yu didn't think that King Huai would feel better with her. Since the first day of their wedding night, she had thought of sex as painful and uncomfortable. Although it didn't hurt later, she was traumatized by the first time and was very stiff when she was with King Huai. King Huai followed the routine with her, and she would naturally not refuse if she wanted a child. But since she had the trauma and couldn't let it go, being with King Huai naturally wouldn't make him feel happy and good.
Today was the day when the Crown Prince was enthroned. He had that idea in mind at the beginning, so he couldn't be in a good mood today. Yu thought, maybe he was in a bad mood and came to deliberately make trouble for her because he was restrained by her.
