The Poisonous Concubine is alive

Ye Chenxi was completely confused. The Regent liked him.

When I was a kid, I used to teach myself swordplay.

How come it has become love me now...

Ye Chenxi thought that when he was a child, the Regent was with him every day.

This thought makes me feel scared...

How can I be so lucky? Although I have a beautiful lower body, my mother is so beautiful.

It’s not likely that the Regent would target him!

Ye Chenxi wanted to escape and went to ask his mother for clarification. "You can't do this, your innocence will be in jeopardy."

Ye Chenxi got up and rushed to the general's mansion, fearing that he would be seen by the regent.

The palace banquet didn't feel like a place at all.

Waiting for the innocence to be gone.

He ran to the door of the general's mansion, panting heavily, and knocked on the door. "Is there...anyone there?"

Liu Yunrou heard the voice sounded so familiar, so she opened the door and asked, "Xi'er, why are you here?"

Ye Chenxi fell into his mother's arms and cried, "Mother... I am so miserable, the Regent has me worried about you."

Liu Yunrou was confused and bewildered, so she comforted him casually, "It's nothing, it's not impossible for you to like him."

Ye Chenxi hugged his mother and cried even harder.

"This……"

Liu Yunrou was completely stunned.

Ye Chenxi sobbed and explained: "I don't like him, but he likes me, what should I do?"

Liu Yunrou patted Ye Chenxi's back and said after thinking for a moment: "Maybe we can talk to the Regent."

Ye Chenxi raised his head and looked at Liu Yunrou with tearful eyes: "Are you really going? I'm a little scared."

Liu Yunrou smiled gently, "Don't be afraid, Mother is here. And if he really has feelings for you, he should give an explanation. We can't let this matter remain unclear."

Ye Chenxi hesitated for a moment, then finally nodded. The mother and daughter decided to choose a date to visit the Regent and clarify the matter. A few days later, Ye Chenxi and Liu Yunrou arrived at the Regent's residence. Upon learning of their purpose, the Regent smiled and invited them into the living room.

The Regent looked at Ye Chenxi gently and said softly, "Chenxi, my feelings for you are not a whim. I have been paying attention to your growth since you were a child. I know this feeling may be troubling to you, but I hope you can give me a chance to prove my sincerity."

Ye Chenxi's cheeks flushed after hearing this, and he lowered his head in silence. Seeing this, Liu Yunrou smiled and broke the silence, "Your Highness, matters of the heart require mutual affection. Why not give Chenxi some time to think it over?"

The Regent nodded in agreement. He stood up and bowed slightly to Ye Chenxi. "No matter what, I will respect your choice." After saying that, he escorted the mother and daughter out of the house.

Ye Chenxi looked at the Regent's back, her mind full of thoughts. Liu Yunrou gently held her hand, giving her strength and support.

Regent Gu Xiyan's gaze followed Empress Dowager Liu Yunrou's graceful gesture of greeting, slowly landing on her gentle face. She parted her red lips, speaking softly yet firmly, "Your servant, Gu Xiyan, greets the Empress Dowager and His Royal Highness the Third Prince, Ye Chenxi."

Upon hearing this, Empress Dowager Liu Yunrou's eyes flashed with approval, and she smiled and said, "Regent Prince Gu, you like my son Ye Chenxi. He is smart and talented, and he is truly a blessing to the royal family."

Gu Xiyan nodded slightly, a warm feeling welling up in his heart. He responded, "Your Majesty, you are too kind. I will teach you diligently and live up to your high expectations. Although Ye Chenxi is young, he already understands that success takes time. He will surely become a pillar of the country."

Liu Yunrou, the biological mother, watched the interaction between Regent Gu Xiyan and her son Ye Chenxi, her joy overflowing with words. She couldn't help but laugh out loud, clapping her hands together as if she had just witnessed a wonderful performance. She leaned back on the soft couch beside her, holding a piece of freshly cut watermelon. The bright red juice dripped down her fingers, but she ignored it, her eyes fixed on the father and son.

Regent Gu Xiyan's gaze remained tenderly fixed on Ye Chenxi. The deep paternal love in the air moved even Liu Yunrou, who was watching. With a smile on her face, she gently bit into her watermelon, secretly congratulating herself on how fortunate Ye Chenxi was to have her son receive such deep affection from the Regent.

"Oh, look at my memory! I almost ate the watermelon. Seeing you two get along so well, my heart is sweeter than honey." Liu Yunrou put down the watermelon in her hand and shook her head gently, her eyes full of relief. She knew that in this deep palace, it was a rare thing to have such family warmth.

Ye Chenxi stood aside, completely stunned, his heart filled with confusion and subtle panic. He looked at his mother, Queen Liu Yunrou, who was beaming with joy, her eyes revealing her admiration and satisfaction for Regent Gu Xiyan, completely oblivious to her son's embarrassment and helplessness. Ye Chenxi muttered to himself, "Why is my mother not speaking up for me at all? Instead, she seems to be enjoying the show. Could it be that she has taken a fancy to this male official and is planning to arrange a marriage between me and the Regent?"

Ye Chenxi's heart was in turmoil. He had never imagined he would find himself in such a situation. Although Regent Gu Xiyan was both talented and beautiful, and possessed immense power, Ye Chenxi, having grown up in the palace, had always maintained a distance and remained wary of such powerful figures. His mother's attitude now made him wonder if he was about to be dragged into the vortex of a political marriage. His eyes flickered as he began to ponder how to respond to this sudden change.

Deep within Ye Chenxi's heart, waves surged and tumbled, like a surging tide. His mental processes were complex and subtle, like the twinkling stars in the night sky, sometimes bright and dazzling, sometimes dim and obscure. Deep within his soul, a myriad of emotions lay buried, like streams that converged into a unique psychological river.

As he pondered, Ye Chenxi was filled with conflicting emotions about his appearance. His striking features filled him with both pride and confusion. He silently wondered, was such beauty a gift from heaven, or an invisible constraint? Facing the gaze of the world, he enjoyed both the admiration and the distance that beauty brought.

Ye Chenxi wondered to himself, what exactly did this gender-neutral charm bring him? He longed for someone who could penetrate his outer self and touch his inner truth. Deep down, he held a pride in his uniqueness, yet also a yearning for a simpler life. He didn't want to be admired merely as a work of art; he wanted to be understood, accepted, and whole. Amidst these intertwined psychological processes, Ye Chenxi continued his journey of exploration and self-identification.
