Chapter 200: How could the royal bloodline end up like this?
Chapter 200: How could the royal bloodline end up like this?
"Mother, I am also your daughter. How dare you hit me?" Yun Jinxi looked at the pig-headed Liu with disbelief.
"I'll hit you, you shameless thing. You dare to come out and embarrass yourself after doing such a thing. I don't have a daughter like you?"
"Father, there is royal blood in my belly. Please help me." Yun Jinxi slowly knelt in front of the prime minister.
The prime minister quickly thought of a countermeasure, and said with an embarrassed look on his face:
"Second Prince, shouldn't you give me a reasonable explanation for this matter?"
The second prince simply admitted, "Yan'er, the child in the fourth lady's belly is indeed mine. I cannot let the royal blood flow out into the wild. I am sorry for this matter. Please allow the fourth lady to enter the mansion and save our face."
Yun Yuxi didn't expect that the Second Prince actually admitted it and wanted to marry Yun Jinxi. She originally thought that the Second Prince would never admit it. It seems that she underestimated this fool of a man.
"Prime Minister. I think this method is very good. The fourth lady is pregnant. Since she is my royal heir, how can she be left outside? Now that the second prince has acknowledged her, I think it is better to just let it go."
Yun Ruyan originally thought that the Second Prince would take her feelings into consideration, but she didn't expect that the Second Prince would directly ask her to let Yun Jinxi marry him.
"I don't agree, I absolutely don't agree," Yun Ruyan said angrily.
"Yan'er, don't act on your temper at this moment. Come with me. I have something to tell you."
The old lady was so angry that she went straight back to the backyard and gave the prime minister an ambiguous look, only for the prime minister to nod slightly in response.
"Yan'er, I know this is unfair to you, but now that you have married into the royal family, even if you disagree, if the emperor knew about it, he would still let that girl enter the palace. You are the principal wife, and the children you will give birth to in the future will be legitimate. Jinxi is no match for you in terms of brains, so what are you afraid of?"
"Father, if this gets out, no woman in Kyoto will look up to me. My own sister is pregnant now. People will only laugh at me for being useless and unable to keep the Second Prince's heart," Yun Ruyan said aggrievedly.
"Things have come to this point. There is no better way. I am afraid that today it is not up to you to agree or not."
"Father. Is there really no other way?"
"Yan'er, His Majesty has no grandson yet. This child is very important to the Second Prince at this time. Besides, the current situation is unclear. If you want that position, it is not up to you."
"Father, I feel really wronged. My daughter has only been married for two days."
"Think about it yourself. Your father has said everything that needs to be said. Weigh the pros and cons."
"Father, that is the royal bloodline, we can't be careless, I think it's better to choose a day to let the second prince Jinxi marry into the family, Jinxi will be pregnant soon, I'm afraid it won't be hidden anymore"
Yun Yuxi said with a wry smile, then turned to look at Yan Wuque.
"Yu'er, let's go back to the mansion. Let them handle this matter. We won't get involved." After saying this, Yan Wuque looked at the second prince and continued:
"Mingyu, please don't lose face for my royal family. Otherwise, not only will your father not forgive you, but even I, your uncle, will punish you."
Yun Yuxi pushed Yan Wuque obediently and slowly left.
Not long after, Yun Ruyan slowly walked out of the house. Her beautiful face looked pale and weak, and her eyes revealed a trace of sadness and determination.
She stared at the Second Prince quietly and said softly, "My Lord, please choose an auspicious day to marry her."
As soon as she finished speaking, Yun Ruyan's body suddenly seemed to lose support and fell down limply.
The second prince was shocked when he saw this, and he quickly stepped forward, stretched out his arms and hugged Yun Ruyan, who had fainted on the ground, tightly. Then he picked up Yun Ruyan without hesitation and turned away, leaving everyone in shock.
At this time, the prime minister's face was as gloomy as water. After scanning the people present with cold eyes, he said in a deep voice: "Jinxi, come with me to the study. And Liu, come with you." After that, he walked towards the study.
Yun Jinxi secretly rejoiced because her carefully planned strategy finally succeeded in achieving its goal. She followed the prime minister with great joy, feeling extremely happy.
Meanwhile, Liu Shi, who was standing by, realized that she had been too impulsive and shouldn't have hit or scolded Yun Jinxi. At this moment, a trace of guilt appeared on her face, and she looked at Yun Jinxi gently.
After the three of them came to the study and sat down, the Prime Minister said to Yun Jinxi with a serious expression:
"Jinxi, since you have decided to enter the palace, from now on, no matter what happens, you must put your elder sister Yun Ruyan first, and you must not deliberately confront her and oppose her in every way like before.
It is a great blessing for her to allow you to enter the palace this time. I hope you understand this!"
"Father, how can you treat me like this! I am also your own flesh and blood, why do you prefer Yun Ruyan so much?
Now that I am going to marry into the Second Prince's mansion, can't I even have my own opinions?" Yun Jinxi cried with a face full of grievance and unwillingness.
However, the response she received was a stern and angry rebuke from the Prime Minister: "How dare you! If you continue to be so disrespectful to your elders and not know what is good for you, don't blame your father for being ruthless. I will tie you up, cut off your hair and send you to be a nun, so that you can accompany the green lamp and the ancient Buddha for the rest of your life!"
Seeing this, Liu on the side hurriedly tried to persuade him, "Master, please calm down! Jinxi, quickly admit your mistake to your father and make amends." Her tone was full of anxiety and worry, because Yun Jinxi was, after all, the apple of her eye, whom she had spoiled since childhood.
But Yun Jinxi did not appreciate it. Instead, she glared at Liu fiercely and said sarcastically:
"Hmph! Stop pretending to be sympathetic here! When you hit me just now, you didn't show any mercy or compassion. Now you are pretending to be a kind mother and showing your deep mother-daughter love?
I have seen through you all a long time ago. In your eyes, only Yun Ruyan is your sweetheart, and I am just an insignificant existence!" After saying this, she rolled her eyes in disdain.
Suddenly, Yun Jinxi's stomach tightened and she collapsed to the ground in pain.
This scared the prime minister and Liu. That was royal blood and they could not tolerate any negligence. They could not bear it if the emperor blamed them.
So Liu helped Yun Jinxi up and asked anxiously, "Jin'er, are you okay? Don't scare mother. Master, please call the palace doctor. I'm afraid Jin'er may have a miscarriage."
The prime minister, with a pale face, hurriedly ordered the guards to find the palace doctor. He knew very well that Yun Jinxi could not afford any mistakes now, as the child was extremely important to the second prince.
The court doctor came quickly, prescribed medicine to preserve the pregnancy, and then told Yun Jinxi to rest in bed for a few days and she would be fine.
