Chapter 339 Burying Oneself with One's Mother
Chapter 339 Burying Oneself with One's Mother
Upon hearing this, the smile on Prince Yong's face grew even colder.
He sneered, a sinister glint in his eyes, "You're quite clever, knowing I won't let you die easily."
"Wouldn't it be too easy for you to die so easily?"
He laughed, a sinister and terrifying laugh, "I will make you die a disgraced death, a death where you lose everything, a death where you are abandoned by everyone!"
"I will make you pay with your life as a sacrifice to my mother!"
He stared at Yu Wan, trying to find fear in her eyes.
Yu Wan: "..."
She was absolutely sick of hearing those lines.
If the male protagonist had said these words, she might have been a little scared, but since it was Prince Yong... it wasn't as intimidating.
Prince Yong has stopped pretending and is now going all out; he's completely turned evil.
She wasn't afraid at all; in fact, she wanted to laugh.
Prince Yong saw the fleeting sarcasm in Yu Wan's eyes, and his mind went blank for a moment. He felt extremely angry. "What are you laughing at?!"
Yu Wan said, "Your Highness Prince Yong, you must be mistaken. I wasn't laughing."
Prince Yong felt like he was punching cotton.
He took a deep breath, his eyes filled with murderous intent, and slowly walked forward, getting much closer to Yu Wan.
"You have harmed me and caused the death of my mother. I will make you wish you were dead."
Yu Wan frowned slightly, then calmly glanced at Prince Yong. "Your Highness Prince Yong, I have done nothing wrong regarding Consort De's matter."
"Has Your Highness investigated this far, and still doesn't know why Consort De died?"
"If she hadn't had malicious intentions first, she wouldn't have suffered the consequences."
"If Your Highness insists on holding me accountable, I have nothing to say."
Seeing that she remained so composed, the Prince of Yong's anger intensified.
He clenched his fists so tightly that his knuckles almost turned white.
He suddenly approached Yu Wan, his voice low and cold, "Reap what you sow? I think you won't shed a tear until you see the coffin!"
As he spoke, he suddenly reached out and grabbed Yu Wan's neck!
Yu Wan's pupils contracted, and she suddenly stared behind Prince Yong and shouted, "Your Majesty, what brings you here?"
Prince Yong paused, his reason telling him that Yu Wan was lying, but his movements subconsciously faltered.
In that short time, Yu Wan seized the opportunity and ran away.
Prince Yong was stunned for a moment, but after he came to his senses, he stared coldly at Yu Wan's fleeing figure and ordered the servants behind him, "Bring her back to me!"
The servants immediately gave chase. Yu Wan sensed someone following her and felt a little nervous.
The way Prince Yong acts cannot be deduced from common sense. If she were really captured by his men, she really couldn't guess what Prince Yong was planning to do.
Just then, a burst of hurried footsteps suddenly came from the distance.
Accompanied by the palace maids' cries: "Miss Yu! Miss Yu! Where are you?"
The attendant who had caught up with them changed his expression, and Prince Yong also heard the sound, his face turning extremely gloomy.
He gestured to the attendant, who understood and returned.
Yu Wan also stopped and looked at Prince Yong from a distance.
Prince Yong stared coldly at Yu Wan, his gaze like that of a venomous snake flicking its tongue, his words laced with threat, "Consider yourself lucky today, but this isn't over. You'd better pray you don't fall into my hands, otherwise..."
Yu Wan raised her hand and waved at him with a smile, "Goodbye, Your Highness."
Prince Yong snorted coldly, turned around and strode away, his figure quickly disappearing around the corner of the palace wall.
Yu Wan watched his retreating figure, and the relaxed smile on her face faded.
The feud between her and Prince Yong was now completely over.
"Miss Yu! What are you doing here!"
An anxious cry came from behind.
Several palace maids rushed over and breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that Yu Wan was safe and sound.
The head palace maid stepped forward and bowed, her voice anxious, "Miss Yu, how did you end up here? This isn't the way out of the palace!"
Yu Wan turned to look at them and smiled, "How did you find this place?"
The head palace maid said, "When Her Highness the Princess left the palace just now, she saw that the carriage that was supposed to pick you up was still parked there. She felt that something was wrong, so she asked us to search for it."
"I see." Yu Wan nodded with a smile. "Where is the princess now?"
"The princess was worried that something might have happened to the young lady, so she hasn't left the palace yet and is waiting in the carriage outside the palace. She asked me to inform her as soon as I have any news."
Yu Wan curtsied to the palace maids, saying, "Thank you for coming to find me."
Several palace maids quickly stepped aside, saying with trepidation, "Miss Yu, you flatter us. This is all our duty."
After saying that, they surrounded Yu Wan and walked out of the palace.
Throughout the journey, Yu Wan remained silent, but her thoughts drifted elsewhere.
She managed to escape today by sheer luck.
But Prince Yong will certainly not let this go...
Yu Wan couldn't help but pinch her temples.
All she wanted was to live a peaceful life and make money happily, so why did things keep happening to her?
Before long, they arrived at the palace gate.
Princess Changning waited anxiously outside the carriage. As soon as she saw Yu Wan, she rushed over, took Yu Wan's hand, and said with a worried expression, "Sister Yu, you've finally arrived! Are you alright?"
Yu Wan felt a warmth in her heart and smiled, saying, "Princess, don't worry, I'm fine."
Princess Changning glanced around and said, "I'm also going out of the palace. Could I hitch a ride with Sister Yu's carriage?"
Yu Wan: "That's natural."
The two boarded the carriage, which slowly began to move. Princess Changning then frowned and asked, "Who stopped Sister Yu?"
Princess Changning was simple-minded by nature, but she was also very intelligent.
Seeing that she couldn't hide it from Princess Changning, Yu Wan told her everything about her encounter with Prince Yong.
Princess Changning was furious upon hearing this, her face turning red with anger and her eyebrows raised sharply: "This Prince Yong has gone too far! How dare he lay a hand on Sister Yu in the palace? Does he think my mother and I are just decorations?"
Yu Wan quickly reassured her, "Princess, please calm down. I'm perfectly fine."
Princess Changning frowned in disgust. "He must be blaming you for Consort De's death. It was clearly Consort De who wanted to harm people. Father didn't even punish you. Why is he blaming you for Consort De's death?"
After Princess Changning finished speaking, she took Yu Wan's hand and said, "Sister Yu, don't be afraid of him."
"With me and the Empress Dowager here, we won't let him lay a finger on you."
Yu Wan smiled brightly, then pretended to be troubled and said, "I don't know how to repay the princess for protecting me like this."
Princess Changning rolled her eyes and whispered in Yu Wan's ear, "Sister Yu, I've tried all the hot pots at Yu's Hot Pot. Do you have any new dishes to eat?"
Like a little glutton, she said, "Sister Yu, please don't misunderstand. I'm not greedy. I just feel a little regretful that I won't be able to eat the fresh food that Sister Yu makes after I get married."
"So I'm thinking of having a good meal now!"
Hearing these words, Yu Wan suppressed the urge to laugh and looked at Princess Changning with a doting expression. "Alright, alright, you'll stay in the manor for the next few days and not go anywhere. You'll focus on researching new foods for the princess."
Princess Changning was so excited she almost jumped up.
