Demoted from wife to concubine? Reborn, the mistress of a noble family plots another high-status mar

Chapter 326

“But the Emperor saw you!” Xiao Ling’er felt that the Emperor treated her differently.

Yun Xiyue clenched her fist and then relaxed it. "How is Big Brother?"

Yun Xiaohan came out after taking a bath.

"Moon, I'm fine."

Seeing that he was safe and sound, Yun Xiyue was relieved. "It's good that you're alright, Big Brother. Let's have dinner together later!"

"I'll have someone prepare it."

Yun Xiaohan pulled her back. "I've had it prepared. Come with me to the study."

Xiao Ling'er felt uncomfortable seeing him holding Yun Xiyue's hand.

"Yue'er and I have something to discuss."

Xiao Ling'er smiled and said, "I'll go check if the food is ready in the main kitchen. You two can talk."

study.

"Moon, you went to the palace and saw that person. What did he do to you?"

Yun Xiyue pinched the edge of her sleeve. "Big brother, what can the Emperor do to me? Don't overthink it, okay? I just told him you're innocent, that someone is plotting against our Yun family."

"His Majesty intends to support our Yun family for his own use, so naturally he won't just leave us to our own devices, will he?"

“I am the heir of the Yun family. My words carry weight in the palace. Shouldn’t the Emperor give me face? I didn’t ask him to release you, but only to conduct a thorough investigation and give us justice.”

It was Murong Yu who decided to release him.

This surprised even herself.

Yun Xiaohan looked at her and felt that she was hiding something; he was a man too.

How could she not understand Murong Yu's thoughts?

There's no reason not to eat meat that's offered to him; it's not like he hasn't tried it before...

But Yun Xiyue didn't want anyone to know.

Yun Xiaohan pretended not to know, "Well, I'll have someone investigate. You should rest at home and don't go out for now. I suspect it's because the restaurant we run and your shop have been doing too well lately."

"It arouses jealousy."

Yun Xiyue nodded. "That's what I think too."

“But I don’t want to back down. Brother, the other side doesn’t want us to be the only ones in power, and they can’t stand to see us doing well, so we must not let them have their way.”

A cold glint flashed in Yun Xiaohan's eyes. "That's right. I will repay this debt a hundredfold."

The brother and sister shared the same idea.

Yun Xiyue felt much more confident.

It was quite late when she got back. After having dinner at Moyunxuan, she went back to her room.

I did not go to see Grandpa Fu.

After delivering the message, Eunuch Fu left.

"Miss, Eunuch Fu said the door should be left open tonight."

Yun Xiyue's expression changed slightly, realizing that this meant Murong Yu was coming.

He only tormented her like that during the day.

Are you coming again tonight?

Yun Xiyue suddenly felt her legs go weak and her back ached.

"Yes, I want to take a bath."

Qingmei didn't ask any more questions and immediately went to do it.

"You can all leave! I can manage on my own."

Yun Xiyue took off her clothes and entered the bathtub. Looking at the marks on her body, her ears burned.

She didn't let him put it on her neck, and he obediently didn't leave any marks on her neck.

But below the neck... it's all like blooming plum blossoms.

The candlelight flickered inside the room.

A figure appeared in the blink of an eye.

Yun Xiyue looked up and saw it was him, and only then did she feel relieved.

"Please wait a moment, Your Majesty."

Murong Yu said, "Together."

Before she could agree, he had already taken off his clothes and walked in.

"Your Majesty... I'm not fully recovered yet..." Yun Xiyue's eyes were filled with panic, like a little white rabbit trying to run away from a wolf.

"I know."

Murong Yu chuckled, took a towel and rubbed her wrists, "Relax."

"Is A-Yue afraid of me?"

Yun Xiyue was terrified by the way he ate people during the day.

This is unlike him at all.

She hasn't recovered yet and is still a bit scared.

"I'm not afraid..."

Murong Yu threw down the towel and put his arm around her shoulder. "Aren't you afraid you'll tremble?"

"Ouch..." Yun Xiyue said irritably.
