The soul-transmigrating princess was neglected, and the twins beat up their father
Chapter 29 Brainless
Yun Muheng's mouth twitched, revealing a speechless expression, and then he answered firmly: "Mother, seeing is believing, I only believe my own eyes!"
Hearing this, Concubine Lan couldn't help but frown, feeling helpless at her son's stubbornness. She said in a tone of disapproval, "Why? Did you see Xue'er and that servant hugging each other? Or did you see them in bed? You only saw that servant coming out of Xue'er's room. What does that prove?"
After hearing this, Yun Muheng put his hand to his chin and lowered his head, lost in thought. A sharp look flashed in his eyes, but he didn't say anything.
Seeing this, Concubine Lan glared at him fiercely and continued, "Since you didn't see it with your own eyes, what makes you so sure that Xue'er is having an affair? Just because of a few words from Ye Xinrou, are you so easily suspicious of your wife and your child? Why don't you suspect Ye Xinrou of having ulterior motives? And who exactly does that servant belong to? Have you thoroughly investigated?"
Yun Muheng was silent for a moment, then finally spoke slowly, "At that time, I ordered the guards to capture that servant. After interrogation, it was confirmed that the servant was from the Prime Minister's Mansion. Moreover, the servant personally admitted that he had an affair with the princess."
Lan Fei looked at him dissatisfiedly: "And then? Since you have doubts, why don't you take people to confront Xue'er? Why do you want to run away? Xue'er has been stuck in the other courtyard with her child for four years because of a green tea bitch, with no one to help her. She suffered in vain."
After saying this, a trace of regret flashed in Concubine Lan's eyes: "At that time, I should have ignored your objections and insisted on going to the other courtyard to see Xue'er. That way, she wouldn't have to suffer these past few years."
Concubine Lan looked at Ye Chuxue again, her eyes full of heartache: "Good child, I'm sorry for making you suffer. Today, your mother is here, so just say whatever you want to say. I will make the decision for you."
Yun Muheng retorted dissatisfiedly: "Mother, how can you be sure that Ye Chuxue is not such a person?"
Concubine Lan looked at him with disdain, as if he were a fool. "Because I have brains. Besides, I believe in Xue'er's character. You deserve it, Xue'er is divorcing you!"
Ye Chuxue was deeply moved at this moment. She didn't expect that Concubine Lan would believe in her unconditionally.
But at the same time, because of Lan Fei's mention of a "green tea bitch," she was puzzled. Isn't this a modern term? How did Lan Fei know about this? Could it be? She was shocked by her thoughts. She secretly looked at Lan Fei. She felt an indescribable excitement in her heart.
Furious, Yun Muheng complained in his heart, "I'm the one who's been wronged the most. My wife betrayed me, and I haven't seen my mother in years. When we first met, not only did she not care about me, she even scolded me. If I hadn't been born into an imperial family, I'd really suspect I was picked up by my mother."
Ye Chuxue couldn't help but burst out laughing when she heard his inner thoughts. She thought: Is this royal bloodline so random? Just picking up any child? Wouldn't that be a mess?
Yun Muheng heard Ye Chuxue's laughter and glared at her, gritting his teeth and thinking, "It's all your fault, woman! You still have the nerve to laugh? What gives me the right to let my mother trust you unconditionally?" At this moment, he was like a jealous child, his face filled with anger and resentment.
Seeing this, Ye Chuxue went straight into Concubine Lan's arms and cried pretending to be wronged: "Mother, look at him."
Lan Fei hugged Ye Chuxue distressedly, patting her back gently to comfort her. At the same time, she said to Yun Muheng dissatisfiedly: "Why are you glaring at me? Even if your eyes pop out, it won't change the fact that you have no brains."
At this moment, the eunuch's voice came from outside: "Your Majesty, Ye Xinrou requests an audience!"
Hearing this name, the emperor's heart suddenly brightened. At this moment, he was facing a dilemma: on one side was his son, and on the other was his beloved concubine. No matter which side he helped, it would cause dissatisfaction from the other. Just when he was in a dilemma, he heard the news of Ye Xinrou's arrival and immediately ordered, "Let her in quickly!"
Ye Xinrou walked into the imperial study with light steps. When she saw Ye Chuxue, Yun Muheng and Concubine Lan were all present, she couldn't help but feel panic in her heart, as if she had a premonition that something bad was about to happen.
Although she was filled with uneasiness, she still tried to suppress her emotions and knelt down to pay her respects: "Your humble servant Ye Xinrou pays homage to the Emperor, to Concubine Lan, and to the Prince."
After a brief pause, she raised her head, her gaze sweeping across the crowd before finally landing on Ye Chuxue. A flicker of jealousy and resentment flashed across her eyes, but she quickly regained her composure and continued, "Greetings, Princess."
The emperor's face was serious, and he asked with dignity, "Ye Xinrou, do you know why I summoned you here today?"
Ye Xinrou's heart tightened, and she replied cautiously, "Your Majesty, I don't know."
The Emperor narrowed his eyes slightly, a hint of displeasure in his eyes. He glanced at Ye Xinrou coldly and asked calmly, "Then I want to ask you, did you tell Prince Yunxin that Princess Yunxin and I were having an affair?"
As expected, this matter is actually related to that bitch Ye Chuxue! Ye Xinrou cursed inwardly. She glanced at Yun Muheng guiltily, only to see that Yun Muheng was also staring at her with a probing look.
Ye Xinrou had no choice but to bite the bullet and answer, "Your Majesty, it was indeed this servant who informed His Majesty of this matter."
Concubine Lan's lips curled up slightly, revealing a hint of sarcasm. She scoffed bluntly, "Hmph, how did you even know Xue'er and I were having an affair? As a lady of noble birth, you should be at home, cultivating your arts and cultivating a refined and well-mannered character. Yet, you spend all day dwelling on these rumors. Your behavior is no different from those gossipy women on the streets!"
Ye Xinrou's eyes instantly turned red, tears streaming down her face like beads from a broken string. Feeling deeply wronged, she choked back tears as she explained, "That's not the case, Concubine Lan. It's because my sister had been having an affair with that servant while we were still at home. Because my parents had long neglected to discipline my sister, she had no sense of shame and was secretly having an affair with me. I've witnessed this happen many times. My sister..."
