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

Chapter 336

"I never imagined that Miss Yun was actually the apprentice of the Divine Doctor."

Yun Xiyue raised her eyes and stared coldly at him, "Yes! My master has been traveling around the world for many years and we haven't been in contact for a long time. I wonder if His Highness Prince Rui has seen my master."

"Yes, the Divine Physician's Ghost Hands are renowned throughout the land. I was fortunate enough to witness it once, on my way back to the capital," Murong Chen said with a smile.

"Where!"

Murong Chen laughed and said, "I forgot."

Yun Xiyue's face darkened instantly.

"Brother, I'm going to visit Mother, so I won't disturb you and Miss Yun while you enjoy the flowers." The man chuckled, stood up, cupped his hands in farewell, and took his leave.

"Don't worry, he's just trying to annoy you." Murong Yu held her hand. "Your master is not incompetent. It won't be so easy for Prince Rui to catch him."

“But Master hasn’t contacted us, and I’m really worried.”

"His Majesty sent people to search, but have they found any clues?"

Murong Yu shook his head. "No."

The Empress Dowager's health was indeed not good, and he was anxious to find someone to cure her.

"Your Majesty, please stop arguing with the Empress Dowager. Now that Prince Rui has returned, if the Empress Dowager is tricked because of a moment of anger, she will regret it later."

“I don’t understand the affairs of the court, but I do understand that the Emperor’s actions are always justified.”

Murong Yu's eyes darkened slightly. "A-Yue, no matter what others say, can you still believe me?"

Yun Xiyue was taken aback. "Does Your Majesty have something troublesome to discuss?"

"No."

At this moment, a palace maid came over and whispered a few words. Eunuch Fu then hurriedly reported, "Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager requests your presence."

"Then I'll go back first."

Yunxi Yue got up and left the palace.

"Cousin." Pei Fang came from the other side of the garden, passing by her without the usual enthusiasm, ignoring her and walking straight to Murong Yu's side.

Then she hugged his arm with a bright smile.

"The Empress Dowager asked us to join her for a meal. With Prince Rui's arrival at the palace, the Empress Dowager's mood improved considerably."

Murong Yu did not push the woman away. "Mm."

The two of them walked past her like that.

"Miss." Bei Ye called her softly, and Yun Xiyue finally came back to her senses.

"Well, let's go!"

"Miss, you're not happy!" Bei Ye handed her a cup of tea that had been brewed.

Yun Xiyue recalled the scene of Murong Yu and Pei Fang together.

There's a feeling I can't quite put into words.

Heavy and dull.

"No."

She said no, and Bei Ye didn't ask any further questions.

If Qingmei were here, she would have asked a few more questions.

"It's still early, Miss. Would you like to go horseback riding?"

Yun Xiyue glanced outside. "I don't want to go. I'm a little tired and want to go back and rest."

"Miss Yun."

After getting off the carriage at the Yun residence, Shen Yue walked out of the alley, where he had been waiting for quite some time.

After the Shen family's title was stripped, I saw Qingmei on the day she died in childbirth, and I haven't seen her since.

During this time, Shen Yue drowned his sorrows in alcohol every day, and was ridiculed and despised like a rat in the street.

Gone is the glory of the past, gone is the spiritedness of a young nobleman.

He didn't want her to see him in such a disheveled state, so he kept avoiding her.

Having been reinstated to his official position today, Shen Yue tidied himself up before approaching her.

"Why? Why are you doing this to me?" Shen Yue couldn't suppress the grievances and anger in his heart as soon as he opened his mouth.

"You've been having an affair with him for a long time, haven't you!"

Why bring this up now?
