Chapter 13: The Humble Maid in the Prince's Mansion (13)

Ke Xin's death hardly caused any commotion. Even Tang Mingzhu was sad but more angry.

She was angry that Ke Xin had deceived her, but at the same time she was happy that the prince did not speak out to defend Ke Xin in the hot spring palace that day.

This means that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was not bewitched by that vixen and still loved her.

It's just that it's novel for a moment to be seduced by a bitch.

Since Ke Xin's death, Tang Mingzhu has been in this state almost every day.

Sometimes I laugh, sometimes I feel sad.

There was no news about the events in the Eastern Palace, and Tang Yu walked into the Yuqing Palace carrying some snacks.

Tang Mingzhu had gained a lot of weight on the chaise longue, and the effect of her medicine was becoming more and more effective.

Tang Mingzhu had a worried look on her face, and when she heard the footsteps, she sighed.

"Cui Liu, do you think His Highness is angry with me because I killed Ke Xin?"

Tang Yu put down the snack and did not answer.

There was a hint of sarcasm in his eyes.

Tang Mingzhu didn't need her to answer, but she felt depressed.

"Cui Liu, you said I was so good to Ke Xin, why did she betray me? Tell me, does His Highness no longer like me because I've gained weight? He obviously liked me so much before."

As she spoke, Tang Mingzhu began to cry unconsciously again.

His voice was choked with sobs. "It's all the fault of that little bitch Ke Xin. I was so kind to her, but she actually betrayed me. This little bitch, I gave her poison, which was too easy for her. She should be stabbed three times and six times and dragged out to be fed to the dogs."

When Tang Mingzhu mentioned Ke Xin, her face turned ferocious, as if she wanted to kill her with her own hands to feel satisfied.

Tang Yu lowered his head to hide his smile, then straightened his back at an angle where Tang Mingzhu couldn't see him and looked at her with hatred and malice in his eyes.

Tang Mingzhu is truly vicious and likes to feed people to dogs.

That’s right, wasn’t that how her son in her previous life died?

Tang Yu's respectful voice, which was very inconsistent with the cold expression on his face, said behind Tang Mingzhu.

"Your Highness, Sister Ke Xin... No, Ke Xin probably didn't do it on purpose. After all, she has served you for many years and has gained your trust. How could she betray you?"

"Ke Xin even asked me privately before, if she didn't covet the position of concubine...ah! Was that what she was thinking at that time?"

Tang Yu pretended to be surprised and added fuel to the fire for Tang Mingzhu again.

Sure enough, Tang Mingzhu became even angrier after hearing this.

Her chest was heaving violently, and her face no longer had the usual delicate and graceful look. Instead, it was covered in oil from the greasy food she had eaten.

The skin is no longer delicate, but rough and has a lot of acne.

She is completely different from the previous Tang Mingzhu.

Tang Mingzhu screamed, "This little bitch actually had such an idea so early."

Tang Yu lowered his head in fear, his tone flustered, as if he had done something wrong or said something wrong.

"My lady, that's not what I meant. Sister Ke Xin, maybe... maybe I was just asking casually at that time."

Tang Mingzhu waved her hands tiredly and sat down on the chaise longue again.

After thinking for a while, he turned and looked at Tang Yu.

"Could it be that you have already noticed Ke Xin's intentions, but have deliberately concealed them, in order to take revenge on me?"

Tang Yu knelt on the ground in fear, looking loyal.

With tears in her eyes, she cried, "My Lady, I absolutely do not have such intentions, I..."

Tang Yu glanced at the direction where he was kneeling, which was facing the door. From the corner of his eye, he saw a corner of black clothes at the door, with golden patterns embroidered on the luxurious fabric.

The words that I was going to say to express my loyalty suddenly changed into...

"My lady, if you doubt me, I swear here today that if I get close to the prince in the future, I will die on my horse, and I will not have a good death. May the heavens strike me!"

Tang Mingzhu was surprised.

Then the doubt in his eyes disappeared instantly because of this cruel oath.

He walked forward and helped Tang Yu up for the first time.

Her eyes were filled with relief. “As expected, Cui Liu, you are my sister, and you are more loyal. Don’t kneel down at every turn in the future. We are sisters, and we must support each other in the future.”

"Ke Xin, who is not related by blood, is not a relative after all. It is Tang...Tang...Cui Liu, you are more considerate and caring."

Tang Mingzhu wanted to call Tang Yu's name, but she couldn't say it after a long while.

Tang Yu's eyes quickly released a hint of sarcasm. In her previous life, even she herself had forgotten her name.

How could Tang Mingzhu remember?

But in reality, she looked at Tang Mingzhu with tears in her eyes, looking like a loyal servant.

The corner of the clothes disappeared at the door.

Tang Yu lowered his head and wiped his tears.

After what he said just now, the prince must have thought that Tang Mingzhu was worried that there would be another maid like Ke Xin who would climb into bed with him.

So she was forced to swear an oath.

From then on, her rejection of the prince would give her an opportunity to flatter Tang Mingzhu.

Using someone else's strength to fight him back will only make the prince more annoyed with Tang Mingzhu in the future.

When the emotions accumulated to a peak, that was the time when Tang Mingzhu died.

After a few days, June passed and July was the time for the royal hunting.

In previous years, hunting was mostly carried out in August, September or October. This year, the Dayun Dynasty sent envoys to congratulate the emperor on his birthday.

So far, it is still for leaving and for demonstrating national strength.

Nature hunts a month in advance.

Dayun and our dynasty have been at war constantly, and it was only in the past two years that Crown Prince Chu Xiaohe dealt a heavy blow to Dayun, and the war has finally calmed down a lot.

But the people of the Dayun Dynasty seemed to be born warlike, and they began to become restless again this year.

The current emperor loves the prince very much, and the prince's suggestion to hunt in advance was approved by the court.

Tang Mingzhu's mood has stabilized a lot in recent days.

Tang Yu couldn't help but sigh that Liu Ruoyun's arrival gave Tang Mingzhu a reassurance. If it were in the past, she would have started beating and scolding the maid to vent her anger.

Now he is much more stable.

This day, the royal hunting.

There is only one Crown Princess in the Crown Prince's Mansion now, so she will naturally follow.

Tang Yu and Tang Mingzhu were sitting in the carriage. It was hot outside, and even with ice cubes in the carriage it was still stuffy.

Dust and smoke rolled outside the carriage.

The sound of horse hooves passing by.

A team headed to the royal hunting ground.

There was a knocking sound outside the carriage window.

Tang Yu glanced at Tang Mingzhu, and only after receiving a signal from her eyes did he lift the curtain.

A man in armor and with long hair tied into a high ponytail appeared outside the car window, looking like a young general. Chu Xiaohe's eyes flickered when he saw that it was Tang Yu.

There was a flash of surprise in his eyes, but then he thought of something and looked away.

His tone was stiff, "Where is your Crown Princess?"

Before Tang Yu could answer, Tang Mingzhu heard the prince's voice and immediately went to the car window and stuck her head out.

His eyes were full of affection as he gazed at the heroic Chu Xiaohe, "Your Highness~"

The word "Your Highness" was spoken in a roundabout way.

Chu Xiaohe frowned slightly and glanced at Tang Yu, only to see that her profile looked very sad.

My heart ached.

What he wanted to say originally was also concise and cold, "When you get to the hunting ground, keep an eye on the people in the Prince's Mansion and don't talk nonsense."

Then, without waiting for Tang Mingzhu's answer, he rode away.

Chu Xiaohe turned his head to look at the lowered car curtain. Tang Yu deliberately turned his face to the side at this angle to reveal his fair and slender neck.

Acting very sad.

The curtain fell, and the face that I had been dreaming about could no longer be seen.

Chu Xiaohe felt itchy in his heart.

I even began to doubt that I had spoken too harshly just now.

Extremely upset.
