Now it was the prince's turn to be surprised. You know, the royal uncle is the King of Hell of Cangyue Kingdom. Even his father has to give him some face and dare not confront him in person. But now he said that he would listen to Ye Xingchen.
The prince couldn't help but sigh in his heart that his uncle actually put aside his status and was really able to bend and stretch.
Ye Xingchen was too lazy to pay attention to them. He finished his meal and went to the next room.
"Sister." Ye Xiaoan called timidly.
Since he came to the Ye family, everyone cared about him and he became more lively than before. At least he would take the initiative to say hello to others now.
"Well, let's continue practicing. I will take you to the sacrifice in a few days." Ye Xingchen explained his purpose.
"Okay." Ye Xiaoan started practicing immediately.
In fact, he didn't care where he went, as long as he could go with his sister.
The regent here saw Ye Xingchen leave, so he stopped pretending and looked at the prince with a cold face: "Prince, now that your poison has been cured, why don't you return to the palace?"
The prince did not expect the uncle to be so direct: "My body has been poisoned for many years, not overnight. Miss Ye said that I have to come to the Ye family once a month to get rid of the poison."
Cang Boyi's expression turned even colder: "You come here every month, are you doing this on purpose?"
"Uncle, what are you talking about? I can't do anything about it. But you, uncle, look much better. Isn't it time to go back home?"
"I just ate some blood-replenishing food. The poison in my body will never be cured in this lifetime." Cang Boyi replied with a cold snort.
"Does the royal uncle have to stay in the Ye Mansion for the rest of his life?" The prince frowned.
Cang Boyi naturally wanted to, but he couldn't bring trouble to Ye Xingchen.
"Of course not. The king will leave in a few days when his health gets better." Cang Boyi replied.
The prince secretly breathed a sigh of relief, as long as his uncle didn't stay here all the time. After all, he should return to the palace in a few days.
Cang Boyi noticed the prince's little trick and said in a cold voice: "Prince, you and Ye Xingchen are not suitable!"
The prince froze: "Could it be that the emperor's uncle and Miss Ye are suitable?"
The two men looked at each other, and silent smoke and anger lingered and spread between them.
Even though the Regent had a strong aura and the Crown Prince felt a little oppressed, he did not back down. He endured the discomfort in his body and glared back angrily.
This is not just a contest of identity and status, but also a contest between two men over a woman.
“You are the crown prince, but you have been poisoned by Concubine Xuan for many years. The poison has already penetrated into your lungs. Even if you are cured, you will not be able to be like an ordinary person.
Let's not talk about your health first, just talk about your identity. The Queen will not allow the Crown Princess to be a woman who has married twice, and His Majesty will not agree to it either. After all, the Crown Princess will be the mother of a country in the future.
Even if you don't become the crown prince, do you think Concubine Xuan and King Mo will let you go? As long as you are alive, you will always be the biggest threat to King Mo.
Even if you go against all odds and really stay with Ye Xingchen, the next person Xuan Fei will poison is her. After all, your son will be the legitimate son in the future and the one most likely to inherit the position.
You can't even protect yourself now, how can you protect her? If you really like her, you should consider her instead of dragging her into the struggle for imperial power and making her a victim! "
Every word Cang Boyi wrote was brilliant and he pointed out the important relationship involved.
The prince felt as if he had fallen into an icy cave, and he couldn't refute a single word.
Yes, what the uncle said was all true. He was no match for Concubine Xuan and Prince Mo now, so how could he protect Ye Xingchen?
I was just daydreaming. If it was really because of me that Ye Xingchen got into trouble, the prince would blame himself for the rest of his life.
Cang Boyi saw that the prince had listened to him, and raised his eyebrows slightly, looking very satisfied.
The prince was still a little unwilling: "Can the emperor's uncle be enough? Doesn't the regent princess look at her background? What's more, my father poisoned the emperor's uncle. If my father knew that the emperor's uncle cared about Miss Ye, wouldn't he poison Miss Ye?"
Cang Boyi's face instantly turned frosty: "He dares?"
Just two words, domineering and arrogant.
"I have no ambition to be the emperor, but the emperor has always been wary of me, so he poisoned me. I used to think that life had no hope and no pursuit, so there was no difference between living and dying.
But ever since I met Ye Xingchen, I finally knew what it felt like to care about someone. That feeling of anticipation gave me the will to live.
If the emperor dares to touch a hair of Ye Xingchen, I don't mind fighting him to the death. Even if I don't become the regent, I will destroy his dynasty!" Cang Boyi's face was serious and solemn.
The prince was completely terrified. He had heard from his mother before that his grandfather wanted to pass the throne to his uncle, but because his uncle was not in the capital, his father ascended the throne.
The prince also knew that his uncle had no intention of taking the throne. Otherwise, even if his father had been the emperor, if his uncle wanted to fight for it, the throne would have been within his grasp with the 100,000 troops under his command. But he gave up on his own.
But unexpectedly, he was willing to fight to the death with his father for Ye Xingchen, and even said such treasonous words.
But this is the Regent, the King of Hell of Cangyue Kingdom, who commands an army of 100,000 at the border. The prince has no doubt about his means and abilities.
"But uncle, do you really not mind Ye Xingchen and Prince Mo getting divorced?" the prince asked weakly.
"Hehe, I never care about these things, so just based on this point, you lose!" Cang Boyi said proudly.
The prince's marriage to a concubine affected the future of the entire Cang Yue Kingdom, and it was not something he could control. Moreover, there were also the queen, the emperor, and the ministers in the court.
But he is different. Cang Boyi has the final say in the Regent's Palace, so he doesn't have to worry about these things.
The prince sighed deeply. Although he was unwilling, he knew that he had indeed lost.
Cang Boyi looked very pleased with himself, and stood up and asked Su Ruoan to help him out of the yard.
"Today the sky is clear and the sunshine is just right, which is suitable for sunbathing." Cang Boyi said in a happy mood.
Having solved this problem for the Crown Prince, I feel so relieved both physically and mentally.
Su Ruoan immediately had someone bring a recliner over: "Prince Regent, lie down and get some sun. Miss Ye said that getting more sun will help your body recover faster."
"Since Xingchen said so, I'll have to get more sun exposure." Cang Boyi lay down directly.
In the next few days, Ye Xingchen checked the pulse of the Regent and the Crown Prince on time, and only after confirming that both of them were getting better and better did Ye Xingchen breathe a sigh of relief.
On this day, the Queen sent people to look for the Prince. The sacrificial ceremony would be held in three days. After all, the Prince had been out of the palace for so many days. If he did not return, it would definitely arouse suspicion.
Although the prince was reluctant to leave, he still left. Before leaving, he said to Ye Xingchen: "Miss Ye, thank you for your care these days. If you need anything in the future, you can go directly to the East Palace to find me with the jade pendant I gave you."
"Okay." Ye Xingchen nodded.
The prince got on the carriage and left. Cang Boyi did not look happy, but even angrier. He took off the jade pendant from his waist, took Ye Xingchen's hand and stuffed it into hers.
"You can only accept this king's jade pendant!"
