Resisting the Wind and Splendor

Jing Lei didn't understand Chu Yue Li's meaning at first.

When Chu Yueli stopped paying attention to him and continued returning to her courtyard, Jing Lei looked at her back and suddenly understood.

He quickly caught up with her: "Your Highness, actually, the people in this courtyard... Your Highness can trust them."

"Some people may not have any intention of harming me, but they may not be able to keep a secret."

Chu Yueli stopped again, turned around, and met his somewhat troubled gaze.

Her expression was serious as she calmly said, "For example, some people are actually wholeheartedly devoted to your prince, but what they do may not be what your prince likes, do you understand?"

Jing Lei actually understood, but hearing her words from her mouth inexplicably moved him a little.

"So, Your Highness, when you do things, besides considering whether it's advantageous, you also... consider the Prince's feelings?"

"As his wife, I naturally hope that he can live a happy life."

Even if there's nothing at all?

"He won't be left with nothing." Because he still has her.

Chu Yue left.

Jing Lei felt a mix of emotions.

Suddenly, he seemed to understand why the prince loved the princess so much.

Everyone says that everything they do is for the prince, for the prince's benefit, and for the prince's future.

But those things, those things they wanted to fight for the prince, the prince might not like.

Only the princess can understand!

...As soon as Chu Yueli entered the courtyard, she saw Zisu lingering outside the door, seemingly waiting for her.

Seeing Chu Yueli return, Zisu hurried over and whispered, "Miss, you're finally back. You...you should go see the Ninth Prince."

"Yunfei?" Chu Yueli frowned, a hint of confusion in her eyes. "Why are you looking at him?"

"The Ninth Prince did not eat tonight and has been locked in his room. Miss, you are very worried! If it weren't for the servants' persuasion, you would have come to find me yourself."

"She's exhausted today, and she still dares to run around everywhere. Does she have a death wish?" Chu Yueli frowned even more.

"Yes, yes, that's what I said too, so I've been having the servants try to persuade him. But Miss is worried about the Ninth Prince; he's not eating, and Miss is very anxious..."

"He's not a child, why bother with him? He won't starve if he misses a meal or two."

Despite saying that, in order not to make Qin Muxue continue to feel uneasy and uncomfortable, Chu Yueli still turned around and left her courtyard, going to Lu Yunfei's place.

"The Ninth Prince has locked himself in his room and hasn't come out for half a day." Liu Yun knew this, of course, because he personally came to invite the Ninth Prince to dinner.

But the Ninth Prince completely ignored him.

"Miss Xue'er said that the Ninth Prince is unhappy and hopes that Your Highness can go and comfort him."

"Why should I coax him? He's older than me!" Chu Yueli and Liu Yun were talking in the courtyard, not far from Lu Yunfei's room.

In addition, Chu Yueli did not deliberately suppress her voice when she spoke.

Therefore, she knew that Lu Yunfei inside would be able to hear everything they were saying clearly.

She said it on purpose for him to hear.

"He won't eat if he's in a bad mood, so what? It's his business if he doesn't eat, it has nothing to do with me. Why should I have to coax him to eat? Isn't that annoying?"

Liu Yun was about to remind her not to be so loud, lest the Ninth Prince hear her.

Before he could finish speaking, the door to the room not far away was suddenly flung open.
