Chapter 108 Sister, why are you here?
Ji Yunhuan's cold-bloodedness chilled Bai Wushuang's heart, and a trace of sad hatred flashed through his heart.
But when he thought of Ze'er and Yan'er, he had to put away his hatred and pleaded with tears in his eyes.
However, in the face of Bai Wushuang's crying and begging, Ji Yunhuan remained unmoved.
"The imperial decree is set in stone. How can I change it just because I want to? Do you want me to disobey the decree?"
After hearing this, it was clear that Ji Yunhuan had no choice. Bai Wushuang couldn't accept this and burst into tears.
"No! Prince, Ze'er is your son. Don't you love him the most? How can you bear to let him be a widow for the rest of his life?!"
Ji Yunhuan glanced coldly: "What else can I do?"
"If you hadn't gone to the trouble of letting that rebellious son marry in your place, things wouldn't have turned out like this!"
"You also caused me to be punished by His Majesty to be sent to Nanping to serve as a small county magistrate. I am lucky that I didn't divorce you."
"Your Majesty?"
Bai Wushuang's tears flowed down her face and she looked up in disbelief.
How could she do this?
Isn't this what she agreed to?
If she hadn't arranged this marriage, her Ze'er wouldn't have been engaged to Pei Yu, and she wouldn't have wanted to find someone to marry for Ze'er.
Why is everything blamed on him? !
Bai Wushuang felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar and felt a chill in his heart.
"Alright, the imperial decree has been issued. Let Ze'er marry in peace. Don't do anything to me that would cause trouble for the palace. If I find out, I will never let you off easily!"
Ji Yunhuan made these harsh words, glanced at Bai Wushuang with annoyance, then turned around and left while hugging Liu Yuping.
Looking at Ji Yunhuan's heartless back as he left, Bai Wushuang collapsed to the ground, his eyes filled with endless desolation and sadness.
The slaves around looked at each other, assessed the situation, and moved away.
Bai Wushuang completely fell out of favor.
……
Imperial Palace, Hanxue Palace
"What did you say?"
Ji Ruxue was so shocked when she heard what her personal maid Liu Yun said that she sat up from the bed. "Ji Yunxie is the Prince of Beichen who was granted marriage by the late emperor's decree?!"
Upon hearing the news, Ji Ruxue was in disbelief.
How can it be? !
Why doesn't he know?
How could he be Prince Beichen?
My mind recalled King Beichen’s personal admission on the day of boating on the lake.
Ji Ruxue fell down on the bed and murmured, "How is it possible..."
"Third Prince, this is absolutely true. I have inquired and learned that yesterday was originally the wedding day of Miss Pei, the daughter of the Minister of Personnel, and the eldest son of Prince Zhan's mansion. Unexpectedly, Prince Beichen heard about this and stopped the sedan chair to grab the bride, and snatched away Pei's new husband. For this, Minister Pei and Prince Zhan sued Prince Beichen."
"In the end, Prince Beichen took out the imperial decree of the previous emperor to sue the Pei family and Prince Zhan's Mansion. It is said that Prince Beichen also beat up all those in Prince Zhan's Mansion who had bullied the eldest son, and asked the emperor to order the announcement to the world that the eldest son of Prince Zhan's Mansion is the future Prince of Beichen..."
Liu Yun told everything he knew.
Ji Ruxue's face turned pale when she heard this, and her fair hands tightly grasped the soft silk under the bed.
Suddenly, he stood up and walked out of the hall.
"Third Prince, where are you going?"
Liu Yun was stunned and followed closely.
Just as Ji Ruxue was about to walk out of Hanxue Palace, Ji Huashang came towards her with a stern face, blocking her way.
"Xue'er, where are you going?"
Ji Ruxue was slightly stunned when she saw Ji Huashang: "Royal sister, why are you here?"
"What are you going to do if I don't come?"
Ji Huashang snorted coldly and stepped into the hall.
Seeing this, Ji Ruxue couldn't leave and had to go back into the hall.
Facing the serious face of the imperial sister, I felt a little guilty.
"Xue'er doesn't understand what the emperor said."
Ji Huashang's sharp eyes swept across the palace servants in the hall and said coldly: "All of you go down."
Upon hearing this, the palace servants bent their legs and bowed: "Yes!"
