Chapter 278 My Brother's Secret
Chapter 278 My Brother's Secret
Seeing Xiaoyanzi getting emotional again, Yongqi soothed her softly, "Don't pay any attention to her from now on. Just pretend that there's no such person in the mansion. She definitely won't take the initiative to embarrass you."
Thinking of something, Yongqi suddenly said in surprise, "Xiaoyanzi, we had such a fight just now, but you didn't even cough up blood. Are you almost well? This medicine given by Doctor Chang is really effective."
Hearing this, she laughed it off awkwardly. She didn't want him to know that she hadn't taken her medicine much when he was away.
She put her hands behind her back and tucked the handkerchief back into her sleeves.
Yongqi was still immersed in joy, and he looked forward to a better life in the future. "Although the emperor didn't give me a title, it's also a good thing from another perspective. Mother will definitely keep a close eye on me in the next few years. When things get a little more relaxed in a few years, I'll be able to take you everywhere. By then, we'll have nothing to worry about, and we can go wherever you want."
Hearing Yongqi say this, Xiaoyanzi also felt a little envious. Could she really live to see the day when she could travel around with Yongqi?
Yongqi struck while the iron was hot, "So, Xiaoyanzi, please don't leave me, okay? Stay with me forever. I will only love you and only have you as my woman. Even if my mother gave me a hundred or eighty other women, I wouldn't even glance at them."
Seeing Yongqi's sincerity, Xiaoyanzi also wanted to give her and Yongqi's love a chance, "Okay, then you must not let me down!"
As long as she and Yongqi were in love forever, what did it matter if Xinrong was his wife? Just like Yongqi said, she was the only wife, the only person in his heart.
"Xiaoyanzi, thank you for still trusting me. Don't worry, I will never let you down."
The two of them snuggled together and talked about the pain they had experienced in the past few days and their longing for each other. Only then did they realize that while they were struggling in pain, the other person was also fighting against the pain.
For a moment, both of them forgot the shackles they had imposed on themselves during these days, and instead felt sorry for each other.
"Hey, Xiaoyanzi, I didn't have time to ask you just now, why did you and Liu Qing and Liu Hong break up?"
She gets annoyed whenever she mentions Xiaoyanzi. "They've been stopping me from coming to see you these past few days, and even tied me up today. They keep saying you and I aren't suitable, and trying to get me to break up. I even suspect they've accepted some favor from Xinrong and are trying to break us up."
"How could this happen? Did you misunderstand?" Yongqi was a little unbelievable.
"Of course not. You don't even know. Ever since you were trapped in the palace for so long and couldn't come to see me, they've been trying to get me to break up with you."
She actually wanted to separate him and Xiaoyanzi!
The Fifth Prince was also a little angry. No wonder they treated him so badly when he went to Huibinlou later.
Forget it. After all, Liu Qing and Liu Hong are just ordinary people. They are able to get along with Xiaoyanzi by chance. Yongqi does not have much trust in their character.
Since Xiaoyanzi has let it go, it would be better to break up with her as soon as possible.
It just so happened that he didn't like Xiaoyanzi having so many messy friends.
"Okay, since you're not happy with them, then just break up with them. It would be great if we could be together forever."
The two hugged each other, and at this moment they were the happiest people in the world.
On the other side, Cai Lian was tossing and turning.
She didn't expect Xiaoyanzi to come today, but Cailian was still worried about one problem.
That was Xiao Jian. Cai Lian didn't know Xiao Yanzi's identity before, but when her identity was revealed, Xiao Jian was also exiled. Since then, Cai Lian has been thinking about the meaning of Xiao Jian arranging her to be with Yong Qi.
Assassinating the emperor was one thing, but why was it Yongqi?
The current emperor is a pervert, why not just arrange for her to seduce him?
Cai Lian was puzzled, but just now, when she saw Xinrong ordering people to slap Xiaoyanzi, and the Fifth Prince only said a few words without any actual action, Cai Lian suddenly realized.
Perhaps, Xiao Jian wanted to kill two birds with one stone and break up the Fifth Prince and Xiaoyanzi.
Yes, Xiao Jian mistakenly thought that the emperor was their father's murderer, so how could he tolerate his own sister falling in love with their father's murderer?
Why did so many people choose the Fifth Prince? There must be a reason why they wanted to break them up.
The more Cai Lian thought about it, the more it made sense.
But now that the truth is out, will Xiao Jian still mind Xiaoyanzi and the Fifth Prince being together?
Cai Lian felt that now that she was out and so close to Xiao Yanzi, she had an obligation to tell Xiao Yanzi some of the things she knew.
Since she couldn't help her benefactor assassinate the emperor, she would help him send her sister away. Xiao Jian probably wanted his sister to live a carefree life and didn't want her to be trapped in the Fifth Prince's backyard as a concubine.
Just consider it as repaying Xiao Jian for saving my life back then.
At least tell Xiaoyanzi some of Xiao Jian's situation. It's up to her whether to leave or stay.
Cai Lian had no idea what Xiao Jian was really thinking, so she could only speculate.
But Xiaoyanzi is a brainless person after all. Today it is obvious that Xiaoyanzi is quite hostile to her. Can she believe what she says?
Cai Lian tossed and turned, really not knowing what to do.
Watching Xiaoyanzi fall into the quagmire of the Fifth Prince's backyard, Cailian's few remaining grievances ached slightly, but if she had to ruin her own good life just to persuade Xiaoyanzi, Cailian knew she couldn't do it.
The next morning, when Xinrong and the Fifth Prince went to the palace to pay their respects, Cai Lian couldn't hold back and rushed to the Fifth Prince's yard.
"Xiaoyanzi, I have something to tell you."
Xiaoyanzi looked at Cailian, who was a little out of breath because of the rush, and was on guard in her heart. She had not forgotten her, the shameless bad woman who insisted on staying with Yongqi.
"What are you doing here? I have nothing to say to you."
Knowing that Xiaoyanzi would have this attitude towards her, Cailian didn't care much. She walked in, closed the door and sat in front of Xiaoyanzi as if she was familiar with it.
"I really have something to tell you."
"What are you talking about? Are you showing off that you can continue to serve the Fifth Prince?"
Cai Lian was speechless. Why was this little swallow's mind always thinking about the Fifth Prince?
She suppressed the urge to open her head and see what was inside, and said softly, "I have a big secret to tell you, do you want to hear it?"
"No." She didn't care what secrets Cai Lian had.
Cai Lian smiled slightly: "About your brother, don't you consider it?"
Xiaoyanzi looked at Cailian suspiciously. She was disdainful of this woman who seduced Yongqi, but since it was related to her brother, she was very curious. Most importantly, how did she know her brother?
Seeing Xiaoyanzi's conflicted look, Cailian didn't say anything and waited quietly for Xiaoyanzi to make a decision.
