On Our Wedding Night, I Discovered the Crown Prince's Hidden Illness Chapter 86 - 86 Crown Prince’s Test
Chapter 86: Chapter 86 Crown Prince’s Test
Li Yu’s face was spotless, but Leng Yu Yan’s face was marked. Thus, the truth could only be one thing—the marks on Leng Yu Yan’s face were actually nonexistent.
If the Eldest Princess were to tell the Emperor about this situation, it would constitute the cri of deceiving the monarch.
She couldn’t bear the responsibility of such a cri.
Therefore, if she were to see Ji Qingyu, she naturally couldn’t go as Leng Yu Yan, and even more so, she couldn’t go with a certain soone!
Her increasingly low voice, which reached Ye Yiheng’s ears, clearly lacked confidence.
It was a lack of confidence about her relationship with Ji Qingyu.
...
It was evident that there was nothing innocent between them.
Thinking of how Ji Qingyu called her “Ah Yan” and claid she was his woman…
With this in mind, Ye Yiheng’s face grew even colder.
“Today, you don’t have a choice but to go, with alone.”
“I don’t want to go anymore. I wish to return to the Eastern Palace imdiately.” Leng Yu Yan stood up and walked to the carriage door. “Your Highness and I are not on the sa path, please let down here.”
“Does the Crown Princess Consort plan to jump out?”
Leng Yu Yan ignored him, opened the carriage door, and said to Mo Chen, who was driving: “Please stop the carriage, I want to get out!”
Mo Chen slightly turned his head: “I’m sorry, Crown Princess Consort, without His Highness’s command, I dare not stop the carriage.”
Sitting beside Mo Chen, Song Guo smiled in an attempt to smooth things over: “The Crown Princess Consort said the other day that she wanted to see Prince Qing. Today His Highness personally ca to pick up the Crown Princess Consort. Such affection should not be taken for granted, Crown Princess Consort.”
At this mont, a cool and clear voice ca from inside the carriage: “Co back, sit down!”
The voice contained a hint of danger that was easily detectable.
Leng Yu Yan gritted her teeth and sat back down.
Her fingers in her sleeves stirred restlessly. How would she explain herself to Princess Heng Yuan and Marquis Jiangyang?
Was she really going to blow her cover in front of the blind man?
With a heart filled with anxiety, Leng Yu Yan followed Ye Yiheng to the Marquis Jiangyang Mansion.
Hearing of the Crown Prince’s arrival, Ye Yuan was very happy and personally went to receive them. Upon her arrival, Ye Yiheng had already brought Leng Yu Yan to the front courtyard of the mansion.
“The Crown Prince has co.” Ye Yuan greeted with a smile. “Fortunate that Ah Heng sent soone with the Internal Injury Elixir, Qingyu is now out of danger.”
Since Ah Heng and Qingyu’s relationship had soured, he no longer visited the Marquis Jiangyang Mansion. His sudden visit today was both surprising and delightful to Ye Yuan.
Ye Yuan’s gaze shifted to the young girl beside Ye Yiheng. At just one glance, she saw the girl walking behind the Crown Prince.
The girl’s face was veiled by light gauze, and her figure was swaying and graceful. Ye Yuan’s eyes narrowed sharply.
Hearing the Eldest Princess’s words, Leng Yu Yan felt surprised.
So, this crazy creature had not only made her take the Internal Injury Elixir but had also sent so to Ji Qingyu.
It seed he still had so conscience and humanity.
However, facing Ye Yuan’s scrutinizing gaze not far away, Leng Yu Yan tried her best to be invisible.
Unexpectedly, Ye Yiheng suddenly grabbed her wrist and pulled her forward a few steps.
“Aunt, this is my Crown Princess Consort.”
Leng Yu Yan had no choice but to perform a courtesy: “I have seen the Eldest Princess!”
Ye Yuan smiled faintly and stepped forward to support Leng Yu Yan: “Crown Princess Consort is too polite.”
“I and Your Highness have not yet been married grandly; I cannot be called the Crown Princess Consort,” Leng Yu Yan took the opportunity to grab Ye Yuan’s injured hand and frowned. “I apologize, Eldest Princess, I suddenly feel abdominal pain. May I be excused to…”
When she squeezed her injured hand, Ye Yuan understood that this young girl was admitting she was Li Yu.
Hearing her ntion so abdominal pain, Ye Yuan thought it might be nstruation, an inconvenient ti for a woman. The pressing questions she had intended to ask suddenly couldn’t be voiced, so she could only say: “Please follow .”
On one hand, she ordered her servants, “Quickly invite Marquis Jiangyang here.”
On the other, she called to Ye Yiheng, “Ah Heng, please take a seat for a mont.”
“Aunt, please do as you wish.”
Ye Yiheng slightly furrowed his brows. What was Leng Yu Yan doing?
Upon reaching the back courtyard, Leng Yu Yan bowed deeply and spoke directly, “Eldest Princess, please forgive my offense!”
Ye Yuan furrowed her brows and dismissed her attendants. Only then did she coldly question, “You don’t have a stomachache?”
Leng Yu Yan considered her words carefully before responding, “It was a necessary lie; I wanted to speak with the Eldest Princess in private.”
In fact, her stomach pain had been real earlier, but now it had ceased.
Ye Yuan said indifferently, “I could tell at a glance that you are Li Yu. Since you are the Crown Prince Consort-to-be, why are you still entangled with my son?”
“Eldest Princess, you misunderstand. I have not been entangled with Prince Qing. He and I are but friends. I don’t know why the Eldest Princess would think otherwise?”
Hearing these words, Ye Yuan pondered. Could it be that it was a one-sided affection from her own son?
Thinking back to the guard’s report that Ji Qingyu had abducted the Crown Princess Consort, it seed likely that Ji Qingyu was aware of her identity.
Knowing her identity and still behaving in such a manner indicated it truly was unrequited love.
One-sided affection was even less acceptable!
How useless Ji Qingyu was being!
As a mother, she could help if possible. Moreover, the Crown Prince was frail, with a short life expectancy. Although she was very fond of the Crown Prince, there was only one such excellent girl in the world.
Should this girl spend the rest of her life bearing the title of the Crown Prince’s widow?
Furthermore, she owed Ji Qingyu too much. It was ti to make ands!
With these thoughts in mind, Ye Yuan squinted her eyes and carefully examined the veil covering Leng Yu Yan’s face, “You have no blemishes on your face, yet you used spots as an excuse to refuse the marriage in court. I must ask you to answer truthfully.”
“Yes!”
“Do you not wish to marry the Crown Prince?”
Seeing her question hit the mark, Leng Yu Yan nodded in acknowledgnt, “I hope the Eldest Princess will keep this secret!”
Ye Yuan sighed, “My son is smitten with you, and yet you are betrothed to the Crown Prince. What should be done?”
Leng Yu Yan spoke soothingly to explain, “The Crown Prince is unaware that in fact, I bear no blemishes on my face. His lack of affection for is known to all. Qingyu and I are good friends; he wanted to rescue from harm, which is why he claid to be fond of . I hope the Eldest Princess understands!”
Ye Yuan lifted a corner of Leng Yu Yan’s veil to inspect the blemish before quickly covering it again, “I do favor the Crown Prince, but only because his late mother entrusted to do so. As for my son, I owe him too much. Miss Lai, I will keep your secret, should you consider becoming my daughter-in-law.”
Leng Yu Yan was shocked by her words, “Eldest Princess, this…”
Ye Yuan smiled, “We are both won. We don’t seek a husband of great power and privilege but rather one who loves only us. I understand my son’s temperant; once he is set on you, he will never change his mind.”
“Thank you, Eldest Princess, for keeping my secret!” Leng Yu Yan’s expression beca reserved, “As for Qingyu and , we truly share nothing but a pure friendship.”
Ye Yuan waved her hand with a smile, “It’s too early to draw conclusions now.”
Before long, the two returned to the front hall of the residence.
Seeing their return, Ye Yiheng inwardly scoffed. Did the Imperial Aunt not know that Leng Yu Yan was Li Yu?
Had they t before, the Imperial Aunt would have realized by now that Leng Yu Yan was the Crown Prince Consort-to-be, and entangled with her son, and thus should have been angry.
But seeing their cheerful interaction, could it be that they hadn’t t before?
However, if Uncle and Aunt had not t her, they surely wouldn’t have rashly agreed to propose the marriage to the Father Emperor.
What exactly was the situation?
Seated to one side, Ji Liancheng caught sight of Leng Yu Yan and was montarily surprised. Just as he was about to speak, he was restrained by Ye Yuan’s grip on his arm, “Husband, this is Ah Heng’s future Crown Princess Consort. Who knows what the girl our son fancies, Li Yu, looks like?”
While speaking, Ye Yuan gave his hand a pinch.
