Chapter 40: The Humble Maid in the Prince's Mansion (40)

Tang Mingzhu walked out of the study, and Tang Yu followed closely behind her. Before leaving, he glanced sideways at Chu Xiaohe who was sitting in the study.

The man's eyes never left her, and when Tang Yu turned around, their eyes met.

She looked shy, and her fair face flushed slightly, making her face like a goddess or fairy even more vivid.

The corners of her eyes were red, and her eyes were moist and charming. Just with this one look, Chu Xiaohe suddenly felt hot all over, and his eyes were dark.

I thought to myself, what a goblin.

After Tang Yu secretly seduced Chu Xiaohe, he turned around and decisively followed the distraught Tang Mingzhu away.

Only the hot-headed man was left to vent his feelings alone.

Tang Mingzhu was dazed for a moment. The two had already walked a long way away. She paused and lowered her eyes.

The words he said were not as domineering as before, but rather a bit pathetic.

"Cui Liu, tell me, is His Highness still blaming me? But I have already lowered myself. What should I do to get back to the way things were in the beginning? I really don't know what to do."

As she spoke, Tang Mingzhu lowered her head and cried. She no longer looked like the glorious Crown Princess or the Prime Minister's daughter as she used to be.

At this moment, Tang Mingzhu was like a drowned dog in Tang Yu's eyes.

Embarrassed and unbearable.

As the daughter of the prime minister, the empress dowager loves her very much. From childhood to adulthood, she has never known what it means to bow her head.

Now the man who had lowered himself to please her was rude to her, but the man she loved and cherished in her heart could not forget her, Tang Yu, and missed her like crazy.

Tang Yu felt very happy in his heart. With a faint smile on his face, he stood behind Tang Mingzhu, watching her joke and admiring her desolation and despair.

Tang Yu said, "Your Highness, you and His Highness have a foundation of love. How can three years of love end just like that? You have to have confidence in yourself. His Highness fell in love with you at first sight and came to His Majesty to ask for your hand in marriage. This love can't be fake."

Tang Yu continued to give Tang Mingzhu hope.

Tang Mingzhu stopped crying, raised her hand to wipe away her tears, her eyes dull.

His tone could not hide his disappointment.

"Really? But I don't think that's the case. It seems that His Highness really has no feelings for me anymore. If I had known this earlier, I would have kept that bitch Ke Xin. When His Highness gets tired of her, I will deal with her."

Tang Yu thought that Tang Mingzhu liked Chu Xiaohe very much, but he didn't expect that Tang Mingzhu actually liked Chu Xiaohe so much.

She liked him so much that she gave up on herself and the once proud and arrogant Tang Mingzhu.

But she would not feel sorry for her. Instead, she would be happier that she cared so much about the prince.

This also indirectly proves that the sword that Tang Yu chose was named Prince.

Very sharp!
Tang Yu took two steps forward and supported the staggering Tang Mingzhu, looking very concerned.

"My queen, what are you talking about? Although His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was cold today, he didn't say that he wouldn't let you step into the study. It can be seen that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is just hard on the outside but soft on the inside. He still cares about you. As long as you keep working hard, you will win the Crown Prince's heart again sooner or later."

Tang Mingzhu no longer has Liu Ruoyun by her side, nor does she have the loyal Ke Xin to give her advice.

She was alone and had no brains, and the prince didn't like her either.

It was easy for Tang Yu to control her.

For example, now, Tang Mingzhu had not given up on the prince, and what she said just now was just a momentary expression of frustration.

After being persuaded by Tang Yu, hope began to grow again.

Tang Yu was pleased to see Tang Mingzhu muster up her courage again.

Well, that's right.

She really wouldn't want to die in an instant.

Helping Tang Mingzhu back to the palace, the maids in the palace all bowed to her.

Tang Yu noticed something that Tang Mingzhu didn't notice.

These little maids were almost all dissatisfied and even resentful towards Tang Mingzhu, the Crown Princess.

Xiao Tao gave Tang Yu a subtle wink, and Tang Yu nodded in response.

Xiao Tao's eyes were full of pride, as if she was saying, Sister, look how powerful I am. Almost all the maids in the palace have defected.

Tang Mingzhu was completely alone, and it would be extremely difficult to send a letter to Liu Ruoyun next time.

Fengyi Palace. Exquisite and elegant, luxurious and restrained, the queen sat in the main seat in her palace dress, and sitting below her was Chu Xiaohe who had just arrived.

The queen looked at her son, who was tall and handsome, like a banished immortal.

Satisfied.

Then he thought about what happened today and his face suddenly darkened.

Chu Xiaohe was called in hurriedly, with confusion in his eyes. In the past, his mother rarely came to him for something, and she always trusted him and would not interfere too much in his affairs.

For some reason today, the maid who came was very anxious.

I guess something happened.

Chu Xiaohe was the first to ask, "Mother, what happened? Why do you look so unhappy? Could you please tell your son? I might be able to share your worries."

The queen, who was sitting at the head of the table, sighed and raised her hand to rub her forehead.

What she didn't want to do most was to get involved in her son's backyard affairs, so she didn't understand what those mothers-in-law who kept staring at her son's backyard all day were thinking. The queen suddenly felt a headache.

But if she didn't say anything or ask, even though the Queen Mother couldn't do anything to her, she would still make a fuss all day long and wouldn't let it go.

Moreover, given the Queen Mother's confused character and her favor for Liu Ruoyun, it is very likely that she will personally go to the Prince to ask about the affairs of the backyard.

The Queen's thoughts turned, and she asked, "I heard that you favored a maid a while ago? The Crown Princess beat the maid to death, and you and the Crown Princess are resentful of this? Is this true?"

When Chu Xiaohe heard the first sentence, his expression instantly turned cold.

But when he heard the last part, his eyes were confused.

When he first heard his mother say that he favored a maid, the first thing he thought of was his Baoer. But when he heard about the word "beaten to death", Chu Xiaohe was quite confused for a moment.

Why does it seem like it's not about Tang Yu?

The Queen saw that the Prince looked suspicious.

He thought that the news was indeed false. Liu Ruoyun was the best at stirring up trouble and making unreasonable demands, but the empress dowager protected her like the apple of her eye.

The queen looked impatient and slightly angry.

Chu Xiaohe put down the teacup and spoke calmly.

"Yes, there is someone I like. She will be the Crown Princess in the future. As for the maidservant who was beaten to death? It has nothing to do with me."

"Mother, why don't you persuade Tang Mingzhu to give up the position of Crown Princess and part ways with her? If she wants to get married in the future, I will support her."

Chu Xiaohe told the queen the truth.

Moreover, as for Tang Yu, he initially only thought of giving her the status of a concubine as an honor, but as time passed, he changed from only wanting to give her the status of a concubine to wanting to give her the status of a concubine, and the more they spent time together, the happier he felt.

Until now, he only wanted his Crown Princess to be a woman he liked.

He said this calmly, no matter how upset the queen was.

Continue to drink tea.

The queen was indeed shocked. Years of etiquette were thrown out of her mind and she opened her eyes wide and her mouth slightly open.

He looked at the look on the prince's face with disbelief, trying to detect a joke in it.

After all, her son disobeyed her for the first time because he wanted to marry the daughter of Liu Ruoyun, whom she disliked.

But now... I don’t like Tang Mingzhu anymore.

It took me a long while to react, and I began to speculate again.

Although he already has a woman he likes, there seems to be no news in the Eastern Palace about the prince taking a concubine.

It can’t be… the identity of that woman…

The queen was surprised. "Who is the girl you like? Is it the fire-making girl? Is it not a prostitute?"

The more the queen thought about it, the more horrified she became.
