In the empresss case, the adulterer man got caught, so they had to solve the problem that arose.
The empress dowager declared that it was not the empress who summoned him, but a particular woman with the status of a beauty, and her testimony beca the truth.
That beauty also conceived around the sa ti as the empress, and this beca her misfortune.
She bore the brunt of it and was driven away from the Inner Palace, and the allegations against the empresss adultery subsided on the surface.
Sohow, I feel I heard this story already, though.
Yui is expression was complicated at this point as she listened.
She knew the details of this familiar story.
Was this a coincidence, perhaps?
The crown prince stared at her puckered face as he stated his next words.
The beauty who was chased out of the Inner Palace was a person called Lady Zhang.
I knew it!
Yui i almost scread out, but she caught herself in ti and tried to refrain from doing so.
It was exactly as the nuns had said, so logically, she already heard about this before.
For Yui i, her mother losing against the empress was a no-brainer.
She did not have a backing, yet she fought with the woman who had the second highest status in the Inner Palace- of course she did not stand a chance.
The crown prince continued on, indifferent to Yui is inward turmoil.
Lady Zhang was pitiful for having to leave the Inner Palace, but the imperial prince who was left behind was also in a pathetic state. On the surface, misgivings about his birth ceased, but a rumor remains forever.
Well, thats also true.
They wouldnt say it to his face, but it was only natural that people would talk about him behind closed doors.
For won, it was a good material for gossip after all.
Without anyone knowing how it started, Imperial Prince Dawei beca twisted after bearing the reputation of bastard imperial prince for so long.
Indeed, that kind of environnt was not suitable for a child.
Between him and Yui i, who grew up surrounded by nature while being protected by the nuns despite being poor, who had a fortunate childhood?
At the very least, Yui i despised that kind of environnt.
Although he did beco a little bit twisted, we all thought that Dawei still grew up normally. Then a problem manifested itself when he beca an adult. He beca extrely obsessed with bluish hair.
Do tell , I pray, does that an he prefers maidens with bluish hair?
Sympathy started to sprout within Yui is heart, but when she recalled how Imperial Prince Dawei rubbed her hair on his cheeks, goosebumps rose all over her skin as she asked.
If only that was it, then it would have been cute. However, he would cut the hair of won whose hair had a bluish hue under the light. During those days, he would ambush them in dark places and cut their hair, much like a random attacker, causing a lot of damage. It beca a huge problem when they discovered that it was Daweis doing.
Whats with that malicious cutting cri!?
Was Imperial Prince Dawei collecting blue-tinged hair?
It would be horrendous if he kept that in a room.
But it would be more terrifying if her hair was also mixed in there.
Dawei did not stop despite being rebuked by His Majesty the Emperor and Her Majesty the Empress Dowager. He was nearly under house-arrest at the palace of the Empress, and he was sent out of the Inner Palace the mont he ca of age. To be honest, the court ladies and the maids were relieved, so they said.
I see, in short, he was an awfully problematic child.
Then, perhaps the reason he did not beco the crown prince was due to the impact of that peculiar taste of his rather than the suspicions regarding his birth.
No governnt official would dare send his daughter as a concubine to such a dangerous guy.
It would be a different story if the emperor only had Dawei as his son; however, there were others.
She also understood why not a single court lady gossiped about Imperial Prince Dawei. They did not want to draw the ire of the empress dowager.
He was wandering alone, perhaps to avoid being stopped during his hair collection excursion.
Maybe he even shook his attendant off, thats why he was here.
At that ti, Imperial Prince Dawei said bluish hair according to the rumors.
Was Yui i being excessively self-conscious for thinking that he purposely attended the Cherry Blossom Viewing Banquet because he heard from soone about the court lady with the blue hair.
She was hoping his obsession with azure hair wasnt because of her mother, though.
It was not surprising if Imperial Prince Dawei held interest regarding Lady Zhang after hearing the ssy stories about his birth.
Counting his age, he had just been born when her mother was kicked out of the Inner Palace.
He did not see her with his own eyes, but the rumors he heard mustve left a deep impression on him.
Well, there was nothing she could do even if that was the case.
Anyway, Dawei will leave once the Cherry Blossom Viewing Banquet is over, so until then, be more careful, alright?
Yes, understood.
Yui i frankly nodded after hearing the crown princes warning.
The long story was over, so she moistened her throat with the tea that had long grown cold.
Here, have so mushipan.
The crown prince urged her, so she did not hesitate to bite the mushipan.
After munching for a short while, she heard the crown princes whisper.
Xiulings late.
