Chapter 289 Watching a Play at Night



After the carriage arrived at the residence, the group got off. Tao and the others had already prepared a brazier and pomelo water at the entrance. Although they didn't believe in these things, they still stepped over it as Tao had instructed.

"Madam, please prepare water and meals in your room."

An Shuyi nodded, "We're happy today, so everyone can get an extra person's monthly allowance to go and prepare a meal."

"Yes, thank you, Madam!" Tao happily led her daughter-in-law to set out the meal.

When the two of them finished washing up and came out, the others were already waiting there. After sitting down, they started eating. They didn't have the habit of not talking while eating, so they talked about things even while eating.

However, the topic is still the Crown Prince and Crown Princess. After all, such a lively event is a once-in-a-century occurrence, and one that has never been seen before.

After finishing their meal, An Shuyi and Xia Hua returned to their room. "Shushu, have you not been sleeping these past few days?"

Although she asked the question, she was certain in her heart that this was the case; otherwise, Shushu wouldn't have looked so haggard. Even while eating, although she was still talking happily, her eyelids were drooping.

"Yes, the day after your accident, Xiao Yubai received the news that you were in trouble, so I rode over on horseback. Luckily, you were alright." During those days, she wished she could grow wings and fly back.

Thankfully she's alright, otherwise I don't know what I would have done.

Xia Hua patted her head. "Don't rush so much next time. Take care of yourself. I'll worry if anything happens to you. I'll be fine unless I'm attacked by hundreds of people."

An Shuyi shook her head, "Even if hundreds of people surround you, I don't want anything to happen to you." As she spoke, she took out five bombs from the warehouse, "Keep the bombs in your warehouse, and throw them out if you encounter danger."

"That way, even if I'm not by your side, you won't be in danger." She kept all the bombs in her warehouse, never considering that they would be separated, so she didn't give any to Huahua.

After this experience, she felt that both of their warehouses should be equipped with bombs, so that even if there were hundreds or thousands of people, it wouldn't be a problem; they could just drop the bombs directly.

Xia Hua didn't refuse, took the bomb and put it away. "Why don't you take a nap? Otherwise, don't go see Song Qingyou. Go to sleep early!"

“Let’s go to sleep later. We’re going to the Crown Prince’s residence now. That idiot Crown Prince must be back by now. He’ll definitely go looking for Song Qingyou. We have to watch this exciting event, no matter how sleepy we are.”

"Okay! Let's change our clothes and head out." I knew she wouldn't miss out on something so exciting.

The two changed into black dresses and quietly left the mansion. But as soon as they went out, they found Cheng Yumo following behind them. An Shuyi glanced at Xia Hua and told her to take care of it.

"What are you doing following us? Go back right now."

Cheng Yumo walked up to them and said, "Madam Xia, are you from the Crown Prince's residence? Let me come with you. I promise we won't be discovered."

"No, even though you have internal energy, it's easy to be discovered, and it will ruin our show." If you disturb Shushu's performance, she will definitely hit you.

"Don't worry, Madam Xia, I promise I won't let anyone find out. Only you will be able to find out. If I am discovered, I can leave immediately." He felt that his lightness skill was very impressive.

No matter how he tried to hide it, he was still discovered by the two people in front of him, and it was unclear how they found out.

Xia Hua hesitated for a moment, then said, "I'll take you with me. If we're discovered, I'll definitely kick you out of the way." With that, she walked ahead.

Upon arriving at the Crown Prince's residence, they went directly to the Crown Princess's palace. Unexpectedly, there were no secret guards outside the Crown Princess's palace, only palace guards.

The three of them hung from the roof beam outside, looking through the paper window into the room. The Crown Princess was lying on the bed, and if it weren't for the rise and fall of her chest, she would have looked like a dead person.

Moreover, there were no maids in the room, not even a single servant. It seems that he was truly a fallen phoenix, and everyone was pushing him when he fell from grace.

Just as they were wondering when the Crown Prince would arrive, a guard's greeting came from outside the courtyard. Then the Crown Prince walked into the courtyard and pushed open the door to go inside.

Looking at the woman lying on the bed, he walked to the table, poured a cup of tea, and just when the three of them thought he was showing pity for Song Qingyou and giving her water, he poured the water directly onto Song Qingyou's face.

ah!

Song Qingyou sat up from the bed, looking pitiful. Even just sitting there made people feel sorry for her. Unfortunately, apart from the cold-hearted Crown Prince, there was no one else.

"Did you have this expression when you slept with Ye Yuheng? No wonder he was so tender and gentle with you. It's a pity he's not here now. You won't get any pity from me for making this face."

“I thought you were different from other women. When I first met you, you were strong, calm and ruthless. I thought you would be able to secure the position of empress in the future.”

"When you were sick, I asked the imperial physician to treat you and wished I could take care of you all the time. I didn't want any maids, concubines, mistresses, or secondary consorts. I only wanted you. Why did you treat me like this?"

"What is so good about Ye Yu that makes you abandon me and choose to live with him? Is it just because his grandfather wants to rebel? Ye Yuheng promised you the position of empress. I can give you all of that."

Song Qingyou looked lifeless and did not refute as she had today. Instead, she said, "Your Highness, my affair with Ye Yuheng was an accident. As for why I had an affair with him for several months, it was because I wanted a child."

"child?"

“Yes! Child, I have been married to His Highness the Crown Prince for several years, but I have not been able to conceive. Ye Yuheng was poisoned by a maid, and I happened to witness it. He defiled me, but I did not resist in order to have a child.”

"The same thing happened several times afterward. Just when I was wondering if my body really couldn't conceive, I was found to be pregnant. I should have been happy, but Your Highness was not in the manor at that time."

"I can only let this child die, but I'm cruel. That child is the one I've always longed for, yet it can't come into this world. So, Your Highness, do you know that you have a health problem and cannot let me get pregnant?"

His Highness the Crown Prince looked incredulous. "Do you think I would believe that? This is just your side of the story, your explanation for your shameful deeds. It's not normal to not have a child for several years."

"And let me tell you, there is nothing wrong with my health. The reason you don't have children is because I haven't ascended the throne yet, and I don't want our children to become a handle against me, which is why I've been taking medicine."

Seeing Song Qingyou's terrified expression, he said, "If you had told me about this, I would have told you. But you didn't ask. Instead, you sat down with someone else and did something shameful. You're such a slut."

Song Qingyou hurriedly got off the bed, "This is impossible, you lied to me, it's your body that's not right, it's not my fault, I did nothing wrong!"
