Chapter 255 A roundabout way to save the country!

"Your Highness, Consort Wei, are joking!"

"It was only because I, Yue'er, visited Your Highness without prior notice, that I ruined Your Highness's plans. Fortunately, Your Highness was not angry, which made me feel somewhat relieved!"

Consort Wei was in a hurry to get rid of Mu Yue and didn't have the extra energy to get entangled with her.

Upon hearing these words, he could only manage a forced, somewhat perfunctory smile and nod.

"Your Highness is joking!"

"You are the legitimate princess, there is no place in the palace that you cannot go. However, I have some private matters to attend to today. After you have finished, please come to my palace to play with the Eighth Prince. I will certainly not refuse."

Mu Yue also noticed Wei Fei's urgency and resistance at this moment.

She frowned slightly, a guess suddenly forming in her mind. She kept glancing around the entire palace, trying to discern something unusual about the bedchamber and find the reason for Consort Wei's urgency.

But in the palace before them, all they could see were the excited expressions of the palace servants and the figure of the Eighth Prince moving around. There was not a single unfamiliar figure or strange presence.

Mu Yue frowned, realizing that even if she continued to think of reasons to stay here, she wouldn't see the clues she wanted to see.

Given Consort Wei's current state of vigilance, even if I stay here, I probably won't get any clues; instead, I'll only alert her.

Perhaps it's better to take a step back first.

Thinking of this, Mu Yue immediately put on a guilty expression, "Yue'er came to check after hearing some noise. Since Consort Wei has important matters to attend to, then Yue'er will not disturb you any longer!"

After saying this, Mu Yue did not hesitate and immediately walked out of the palace.

Watching Mu Yue's departing figure, Wei Fei's heart, which had been pounding with anxiety, gradually quickened until Mu Yue's figure was completely gone, at which point she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The Eighth Prince originally wanted to keep Mu Yue with him.

But when he noticed something unusual about his mother out of the corner of his eye, he immediately felt that something was wrong.

These days I've been living the same as always, without taking any medication or receiving any medical treatment.

My mother has been acting mysteriously these days, and she often dismisses the palace servants. I wonder who she's meeting with.

Today, I excitedly dragged myself to some small Buddhist shrine.

He fainted, but when he woke up, his legs had suddenly recovered.

He must have been unconscious; something must have happened during that time.

Yinyou knew that such methods were definitely not something an ordinary person could possess.

The mother's current state was very strange; she seemed to be feeling guilty.

What did she do to make her leg recover?

Is it related to what happened in my uterus a few days ago?

As Yinyou pondered, his brow furrowed involuntarily.

He disregarded his joy at his leg's recovery and hurriedly went to Consort Wei, his tone tinged with urgency and questioning, "Mother, how did my leg recover?"

Remembering the mysterious man's instructions, Consort Wei was unable to tell her son the truth.

Faced with the Eighth Prince's urgent questioning, she looked away, not daring to meet his gaze.

"No matter what method is used, as long as your leg recovers, that's a good thing. Why do you have to ask so many questions, my son?"

Consort Wei's attempt to conceal the truth caused Yin You to frown.

He stared at Consort Wei for a long time, and after a while, asked in a deep voice, "A few days ago, many palace maids went missing from the palace. Is this related to Consort Wei?"

Consort Wei's face immediately turned from green to purple, a truly fascinating sight.

She turned away uncomfortably, avoiding Yin You's suspicious gaze. "My son, what are you saying? Don't you know what kind of person your mother is? How could you be involved in such a thing? Did someone whisper something in your ear?"

At first, Consort Wei looked somewhat guilty, but the more she spoke, the calmer she became, and she even had someone in mind to suspect.

Yinyou wanted to believe his mother, but her expression was too strange.

He simply couldn't ignore what he was seeing.

"Since Mother says so, I choose to believe you. But could you tell me how my leg recovered?"

Consort Wei was afraid that saying too much would lead to making a mistake.

Faced with Yin You's endless questions, she deliberately feigned a hurt expression, "Could it be that in your heart, Mother Consort is someone who will stop at nothing and disregards right and wrong?"

A voice tinged with hurt rang in Yin You's ears.

Yinyou was stunned when he heard Consort Wei's words, and for a moment he didn't know what to do.

He didn't want to suspect his mother, but all the evidence in front of him seemed to be related to her, especially since his leg had recovered so strangely.

He remained silent for a moment, then stepped forward to Consort Wei. “Your subject does not know what your mother is hiding from you, but your subject and your mother are one.”

"If Mother Consort encounters any trouble, she can tell her son. Her son will stand by her side without hesitation. But at least Mother Consort must let her son know what happened, so that her son can keep it a secret for her!"
