Chapter 309 A Substitute Bride's Brave Love, A Prince Without Heirs Forever By Her Side - 39

Aunt Mei sighed softly and explained slowly, "Princess, you are in a foreign land, and with your parents protecting you with all their might, even if she wanted to send someone to assassinate you, she wouldn't dare to do it easily. If the matter is exposed and reaches Zhuo Yucheng's ears, then the bond between them as mother and son will probably be completely destroyed." As she spoke, Aunt Mei gently pushed an exquisite box in front of Mu Wanwan.

Mu Wanwan's gaze involuntarily fell on the box, but her thoughts had already drifted away. Aunt Mei continued, "I'm not here today to act as a mediator, but simply to tell you the truth: Yucheng's feelings for you have never changed from beginning to end."

Upon hearing this, Mu Wanwan abruptly raised her head, a complex emotion flashing in her eyes, "But... but he still took a concubine in the end!"

Aunt Mei nodded slightly, indicating that she understood Mu Wanwan's feelings at this moment, and continued, "Princess, he really can't refute the matter of taking concubines. But his original intention was actually to better protect you. The Empress Dowager has talked to him many times, forcing him to favor those concubines, but he has always been unmoved and has not listened to a single word."

Mu Wanwan summoned Piggy, "Piggy, is your information wrong?"

Piggy scratched his head, looking apologetic. "Master, it's a fact that he took a concubine, and it's also a fact that your letter was intercepted by the Empress Dowager!"

Mu Wanwan sighed, wondering why things were so different from what she had imagined. Aunt Mei noticed that Mu Wanwan was still hesitating.

"Princess, if it weren't for the impending war, he would already be standing before you! Please trust him this once, give him a chance, and give yourself a chance too, okay?"

While listening to Aunt Mei's words, Zhu Zhu rolled her eyes and decided to tell her about Zhuo Yucheng's recent situation.

"Master, Zhuo Yucheng truly loves you!"

Mu Wanwan's head was buzzing, she had a terrible headache, and her chest felt tight.

“Master, I will sneak into Zhuo Yucheng’s dreams as soon as he falls asleep. These days I have transformed into your appearance, and every time I see him, he is overjoyed. I have also found a folk remedy to help him fall asleep quickly, just to see you in his dreams.”

"Are you telling the truth?"

The pig raised its chubby paws and swore, "I swear, every word I said is true."

With trembling hands, Mu Wanwan opened the box in front of her and slowly took out the letters inside, reading them all word for word.

Her hands were clenched tightly, and tears welled up in her eyes and finally fell.

Just then, the maid standing to the side saw this and became anxious. She quickly stepped forward and said with a worried expression, "Princess, please don't cry anymore! The doctor repeatedly warned you not to be overjoyed or sad, otherwise it would be very bad for your health!"

At this moment, Mu Wanwan seemed not to hear anything, but simply clutched her chest tightly. Suddenly, a mouthful of blood slowly flowed from the corner of her pale lips.

This scene startled Aunt Mei, who was sitting not far away, so much that she immediately stood up, her face full of horror, and she cried out in a trembling voice, "Wanwan, what... what happened to you? How... how could you suddenly vomit blood?"

For a moment, Aunt Mei felt weak in the knees and had no idea how to deal with this sudden situation.

The maid who had been by Mu Wanwan's side was already crying her eyes out.

Sobbing, she explained on Mu Wanwan's behalf, "Ever since Zhuo Yucheng ascended the throne, he has not only taken in numerous concubines but also completely ignored our princess. My princess is kind-hearted, gentle, and refined; how could she bear such a shock? That's why she was so angry that she kept vomiting blood. Even the doctor could only prescribe some medicine to calm her and soothe her nerves. These past few days, the princess's condition has finally started to improve a little. But who would have thought that you would come to our door today, bringing such a tattered letter! What exactly do you want?" At this point, the maid couldn't help but sob again.

Normally, the maidservants would serve Mu Wanwan wholeheartedly, day and night.

Over time, they became intimately familiar with their princess's character and way of dealing with people.

Mu Wanwan has always been known for her kindness and compassion.

She was kind and gentle to the servants, especially to her, whom she treated like a sister, and never showed the slightest bit of harshness or blame.

Mu Wanwan slowly extended a slightly trembling jade hand, which, though somewhat weak, firmly grasped the maid's wrist.

It seems that they wanted to gain a little bit of strength and solace through such contact.

Upon seeing this scene, the maid felt a pang of sorrow, and tears instantly streamed down her face.

But she knew this was not the time to cry, so she quickly wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes with her sleeve and took out a snow-white handkerchief from her bosom. With gentle and careful movements, she wiped away the traces of blood left at the corners of Mu Wanwan's mouth.

"Princess, are you really alright? Can I stay here and take care of you?" she said, her face full of worry and her voice slightly choked with emotion.

However, Mu Wanwan simply smiled and gently reassured her, "I'm fine, don't worry. Go and make me a cup of hot tea."

Despite her pale face, her tone remained gentle yet firm.

The maidservant was unwilling to leave the princess's side even for a moment, and only wanted to stay and take good care of her.

But when she met Mu Wanwan's slightly raised eyebrows, she knew she could not disobey the princess's orders.

In the end, she could only slowly walk out of the room, turning back every few steps, to prepare hot tea.

Aunt Mei, who had been watching silently from the side, was already sobbing uncontrollably. Seeing that the princess had already vomited blood and that the situation was so serious and critical, the princess was still able to say that she was fine so calmly!

"Aunt Mei, don't be afraid, I'm really fine!" Mu Wanwan forced a smile to comfort Aunt Mei, enduring the waves of pain in her body.

“Princess… Waaah… She’s vomited blood! How could she possibly be alright?” Aunt Mei sobbed, speaking haltingly.

"Aunt Mei, don't worry. I've just read the letter, and it's definitely written in his own handwriting, so I believe he wouldn't lie to me!"

Mu Wanwan gripped the letter tightly in her hand, her gaze fixed firmly on the distance, as if she could see the person she longed for through the void before her.

Aunt Mei held her hands and said, "Good child, as long as you are all well, my trip will not have been in vain."
