Chapter 367 The Wife Given Away by Her Husband 5
Ning Yan took a deep breath and said, "Your Highness, men and women should not touch each other. Could you please stay away from me?"

The King of Yue looked at her, angry but not daring to vent, with her face flushed with frustration, and he felt very upset.

"My brother's imperial decree will be issued soon. We are engaged and you are my princess. I just sat a little closer to you. What's the problem?"

Ning Yan felt her face burning. She bit her lips and glared at King Yue, then turned her head away and stopped looking at the man who was making unreasonable arguments.

But this glance in the eyes of the King of Yue was quite charming, as if she was coquettish and angry, with seductive eyes, delicate but not coquettish. She was obviously thirty years old, but she looked like a young girl in her twenties, extremely beautiful.

My heart is itchy, my hands are itchy, and my body is even more itchy.

Finally, King Yue let go of the woman's hand, moved his body, and sat opposite Ning Yan.

Ning Yan looked across and felt the woman's gaze. King Yue coughed to cover up and moved his legs uncomfortably. He didn't know what was wrong with him. He had been celibate for all these years and his body had always been honest, but just because of a glare from her, his brothers rebelled.

Shame on you, so shameful...

The carriage suddenly fell silent, and no one spoke again until the carriage stopped outside Jingzhao Prefecture and the guard came forward to report, "The prince has arrived."

"Go and inform Ji Mu to release Mao Rui."

The guards took the order and left. King Yue looked at Ning Yan and saw that she was looking at the gate of Jingzhao Prefecture with a nervous look on her face. He couldn't help but comfort her, "Don't worry, with my words, the prefect of Jingzhao Prefecture will not dare to refuse to release you."

Ning Yan rarely said "hmm", but she didn't even look at the man opposite her.

The King of Yue pursed his lips, feeling a little unhappy.

About a quarter of an hour later, the guards led out a young man. He was only fourteen years old, and even though he had been locked up in jail for half a month, he still had a defiant look on his face.

His clothes were covered in dirt, and there was a scar on his face. The blood scab had fallen off, revealing white and pink tender flesh.

Fortunately, the wound is not deep and will not leave a scar.

"Your Majesty, can you step aside for a moment?"

King Yue: ... "I will marry you soon, and he is my stepson. Is there anything I cannot listen to?"

Ning Yan's face turned pale, and King Yue felt heartbroken when he saw it.

Forget it, why would he bother with a little woman like her!
The King of Yue got off the car.

After he left, Ning Yan looked at Mao Rui who was approaching.

"Mom, why are you here to pick me up? Where's my dad?"

The mother and son, one was sitting in the car and the other was standing outside. Although they were very close, it seemed as if there were thousands of miles between them.

"Rui'er, your father, your father gave your mother a divorce letter. Now, we are no longer husband and wife."

Mao Rui's face changed drastically, "What? Why did Dad want to divorce Mom?"

Ning Yan's eyes sparkled with tears, "Your father gave me to the King of Yue, otherwise..."

Mao Rui is not really a little kid who knows nothing. In ancient times, children aged fourteen would already be discussed for marriage.

"Mom, are you saying that I was released because Dad used me in exchange for you?"

Ning Yan didn't say anything, but that meant she agreed.

She would not hide her devotion to her child, nor would she give Mao Renyi the opportunity to destroy her reputation in front of the child. There was no need to hide the truth, being straightforward could save a lot of trouble.

"Mom, come home with me. I did nothing wrong in the first place. Even if Jingzhao Prefecture arrested me, they wouldn't dare sentence me. You don't have to divorce Dad for me."

He just couldn't stand those playboys bullying ordinary people, so he got into a conflict with them when he tried to stop them, but he didn't hurt anyone. Why did it come to the point where his father divorced his mother?
"Silly boy, can't you see?

He is now trading me for your safety, only because I am dispensable in his heart.

If he had respected me a little, he wouldn't have started taking concubines when he first took office.

Also, don't listen to the instigation of your half-brothers anymore. They all hope that something bad happens to you so that they can get more property in the future.

It’s a pity they don’t know that your father has no property at all, and it’s your mother who has money.”

Mao Rui clenched his fists, hating those aunts, concubines, and half-brothers and sisters in his heart, and even resented his father.

Seeing that he did not refute her, Ning Yan took out two silver bills from her pocket.

"Take these first, while mother takes all the dowry out of the Mao family.

Your father is having a hard time now, so keep the money and spend it secretly. Don't put yourself in a difficult position.

If you have anything, you can ask Si'er to tell mother. If you have spent all the money, feel free to come and see mother.

Also, when you return home, don’t disobey your father. Mom is not by your side, so you must be careful in the future.”

Mao Rui was not good at studying and was fond of martial arts, so Mao Renyi did not like this legitimate son very much. Instead, he admired the illegitimate son who had passed the examination for a tongsheng at an early age.

It was okay when his mother was around, but when her mother was not around, Mao Rui would definitely be treated coldly.

"Mother, is the prince good to you?"

"The prince just asked for the title of county lady for my mother, and he will marry me as his principal wife. As for whether this is a good idea..." Ning Yan hesitated for a moment, "I think so."

Mao Rui felt that he had asked a stupid question. No matter how beautiful his mother was, she was a second-married woman. How long could a man of the royal family like the King of Yue maintain his love for his mother?

At this moment, Mao Rui's idea became more and more firm. His mother was willing to give herself to another man for him. How could he be worthy of everything his mother had done for him if he didn't do something?
"Don't worry, mom. I will remember everything you said. You, you are fine. Don't worry too much. Sooner or later, I will take you out and reunite with you as a family."

Ning Yan: ...No, kid, what are you talking about? I just don't want you to be deceived by your father. I want you to be more motivated. Why did you pick me up to reunite with your family?
We can’t be reunited, not at all!
But Mao Rui hid the banknotes on his body, bowed to Ning Yan, and left.

The King of Yue quickly returned to the car, "Haven't you seen enough? Don't worry, I have already sent someone to escort him back."

"Did that guy make you angry? Then I'll get someone to give him a good beating." Cry, cry, cry, why should she cry for another man?

Ning Yan quickly wiped away her tears: "Prince, no, he is not angry with me, please don't bully him."

The King of Yue became even more angry. Why didn't he meet her earlier? Mao Rui was his son, and this woman was his queen.

But he didn't think about it. Even if they had known each other more than ten years ago, the original owner was just a merchant girl and was not qualified to be the Princess of Yue.

The reason why the emperor and empress are so easy to talk to now is because he has been celibate for more than ten years after the death of his previous princess. They are afraid that their younger brother will have no descendants, so he is marrying a concubine, so they let him do whatever he wants.

Otherwise, haha, it was a great blessing for the emperor and empress ten years ago to allow Ning Yan to enter the Prince of Yue's palace and become the Prince of Yue's concubine.

"Now that I have released your son, shouldn't you fulfill your promise?"
