Married To The Cruel Crown Prince

Chapter 585 - Remarriage

"The Crown Prince does not need to say that. His remarks can hurt people around him," Liao Jun asserted.

"The Crown Prince is being cautious. The recent incident was not expected. Also, what if someone puts the poison in the porridge to frame Princess Xue? I think that the Crown Prince might have some thoughts over it," Zhu Lin voiced and explained to them the reason.

Xue Yu-Yan hummed. "Also, in the past, I made a few mistakes. My Father also betrayed the Emperor, so the Crown Prince is a little worried if I could be a part of it," Xue Yu-Yan pronounced.

"That was in the past. The Crown Prince shall not bring that forward," Liao Jun affirmed.

"The Crown Prince is not bringing it forward, Princess Liao. Also, Princess Xue, the Crown Prince is not the type of person who holds grudges against someone. So, you should not relate it to your past. Because if that was the case, then he might have not believed you ever," Zhu Lin proclaimed.

"Princess Zhu Lin seems to know about the Crown Prince a lot. It is strange," Liao Jun skeptically replied.

Zhu Lin smiled and said, "Princess Liao, Prince Wanxi has told me many things about every Prince. That's why I know. You should not take it the other way. Also, in the past Zhilao Mi tried to frame Princess Xue. That time too it was difficult for many to trust her." Xue Yu-Yan looked at Zhu Lin and agreed with her.

"Does Princess Zhu Lin try to mean that if there would be hidden enemies among us, then he might try to use the Royal Family? Since Prince Yongzheng already betrayed the Royal Family, it will be much easier for the others to defeat us since the trust among the Royal Family members has wavered," Xue Yu-Yan asserted.

"Yes, Princess Xue. The Crown Prince does not like to explain much but he protects everyone around him," Zhu Lin stated. Xue Yu-Yan and Liao Jun agreed with that.

"Princess Zhu, you shall not walk too much. As the Crown Princess said earlier, it can affect your navel region injury," Xue Yu-Yan said worriedly.

"I am returning to my chamber, Princess Xue. Thank you for expressing your concern. I will see you both later," she took her to leave and left their sight.

"We shall also go back to our respective chambers," Liao Jun stated. Xue Yu-Yan nodded and saw her leaving, followed by her six maidservants. Xue Yu-Yan also went back to her chamber.

As she crossed the hallway of her chamber, she saw Consort Ju Fen coming out of the chamber of Bai Yaling. However, since Ju Fen headed in the opposite direction, she could not see Xue Yu-Yan.

She decided to meet Bai Yaling and went to her chamber. As she entered, she heard the cries of Bai Yaling. She continued to walk and halted as she saw Bai Yaling had seated on the floor mat.

"Sister Bai, are you alright?" Xue Yu-Yan asked her humbly. She quickly stopped weeping and wiped off the tears from her cheeks.

Turning to her, Bai Yaling stood up and bowed. Xue Yu-Yan walked to her and embraced her into a hug. She caressed her back and withdrew.

"Yes. Everything is fine," Bai Yaling replied. "I recalled my late husband, so could not refrain myself from crying," She said and wiped her cheeks from her fingers.

"Sister Bai, do you want to go on a walk with me? I heard that lotus pavilion looks beautiful at this time," Xue Yu-Yan stated.

"I would love to, Sister Xue, but I have some work to complete by the evening," Bai Yaling politely declined her offer. Xue Yu-Yan hummed and caressed her arm. Follow current ɴᴏᴠᴇʟs on ɴovel(F)ɪre

"Sister Lili has asked about you. She wants you to come to her chamber. You should go there by the evening," Xue Yu-Yan suggested to her.

"I am afraid but I do not think that I am allowed to go to the Crown Princess's chamber. Also, I do not want the Crown Princess to feel any kind of stress because of me," Bai Yaling stated. Xue Yu-Yan had no words left. She could not get what she should say at this time to her. She took her leave and told Bai Yaling to take some rest.

Bai Yaling again started to cry when a maidservant came inside. "The Emperor has called Princess Bai in his manor," she informed her.

"Why?" Bai Yaling was anxious to hear that the Emperor had summoned her. Was it probably because Ju Fen wanted her to leave the Palace and live separately.

"Sure," Bai Yaling answered.

She went towards the mirror, checked her face, and then left for the Emperor's manor. The Palace Maid informed the Emperor first about the arrival of Bai Yaling, who ordered her to let her in.

The Palace maid delivered the same message to Bai Yaling, who walked in. She found General Wang in the chamber but then swiftly averted her gaze. She bowed before the Emperor and kept her eyes low.

"Consort Ju Fen has made a decision for you. She wants you to live in a separate residence in the Palace other than the Eastern Palace," Han Wenji started to speak. The tears formed in the eyes of Bai Yaling, but she kept them intact, not letting them fall.

"Yes, Your Majesty," Bai Yaling. "The Mother-in-law has informed me about the same," Bai Yaling stated with a trembling voice.

"I do not believe that Princess Bai needs to live separately. I would like to know your opinion," asserted Han Wenji.

"Does my opinion matter, Your Majesty?" Bai Yaling queried.

"Of course," Han Wenji stated. "Also, I have a separate offer for Princess Bai. It has only been a month since she got married to my son. However, his wrong deeds affected Princess Bai. You are a young woman and still have a future ahead of you. I do think that Princess Bai has the full right to live a happy life. That's why I think that Princess Bai shall remarry," Han Wenji pronounced.

Bai Yaling lifted her eyes and gazed into Han Wenji's wife. She thought she had heard something wrong.

"Re-remarriage?" Her voice stuttered.

"Yes. This is my opinion. Rest is on Princess Bai to decide," asserted Han Wenji. "I think that Princess Bai shall not hold onto Prince Yongzheng, who never cared for her. That's why I give you two days to think about this," Han Wenji stated.

"Your Majesty, I am happy that you thought of me. However, remarriage will question my identity. Undoubtedly, Prince Yongzheng never cared for me, but I loved him and cared for him. It is what a woman normally does for her husband. Remarriage is impossible for me, Your Majesty. I will live separately from the other people of the Royal Family," Bai Yaling announced her decision.

"Princess Bai, I have given two days to think over this. Have a thought over it. I would like to hear your decision after two days," Han Wenji affirmed. Eunuch Jin told Bai Yaling to accept the Emperor's words.

"Yes, Your Majesty. I will think about it. Thank you for His Majesty's kind concern," Bai Yaling said and again bowed before him.. She left the chamber after a few minutes when General Wang followed her.
