Does he trust Liu Shimei?
Huangfu Lingyao trusted Liu Shimei. He didnt believe she was connected to the Empress or the Crown Prince. But this belief didnt prompt him to confess the truth to her now.
He hadnt forgotten that Huangfu He was still trying every means to take Liu Shimei back. Even though there had been no movements recently, who knew if they were scheming something in the shadows?
If he made a wrong move now and Liu Shimei, in her anger, chose to return to her old lover, where could he go to cry then?
His silence infuriated Mu Jiangli. Huangfu Lingyao, if youre not sincere to Shimei, stay away from her!
Huangfu Lingyaos face was no better, he retorted, I havent settled the score with you yet!
Although he was lying in bed, his aura was not weak at all. He looked up at Mu Jiangli and said slowly, Mu Jiangli, my wife is innocent and romantic, her thoughts are different from ordinary people. She doesnt mind you calling her by her name, but you just an acquaintance, calling another mans fiancee by her name, dont you find it presumptuous?
Mu Jiangli was stunned.
Huangfu Lingyao added, Weve known each other for years, we can be considered friends. Friends wives should not be deceived! You claim to be knowledgeable and reasonable, dont you understand such basic principles of propriety and honor?
He didnt bring up Liu Shimei allowing Mu Jiangli to call her by her name because she had always been that way, just like Xu Xian. She let Xu Xian call her by her name, but Xu Xian knew his limits and wouldnt overstep them.
But Mu Jiangli, repeatedly addressing her as Shimei, as if Liu Shimei were his familys daughter, truly irritated him!
He spoke harshly, and Mu Jiangli was understandably furious. He swept his sleeve forcefully and said, Fine, you stubborn mule. I want to see if youll regret this in the future!
A gust of furious wind swept through, yet there was no trace of anyone by the bed.
Huangfu Lingyao hesitated and said, Hey! Release Lu Yings acupoints before you leave!
But there was no response.
He sighed and continued, Ive driven him away, but
Undeniably, what Mu Jiangli said made some sense.
He wanted to confess, but he couldnt take the risk now!
His wife had finally developed feelings for him, not the kind a mother has for her silly son, but the budding affection between an engaged couple.
If he were to tell her now: I lied to you, Ive been deceiving you every day, I approached you to use you and manipulate the Crown Prince from the beginning
Wouldnt that be tantamount to seeking death?
Liu Shimei used to have feelings for Huangfu He. What if Huangfu He seized this opportunity to sow discord? He would lose everything!
Yes, he had been suspicious all along. The reason Huangfu He remained inactive was because he couldnt find an opportunity to intervene. Once a problem arose between him and Liu Shimei, Huangfu He would surely step in! Being a Crown Prince requires great composure indeed!
The next day, the magistrate submitted the case to the Grand Court of Justice. Because of the recent unfortunate events, it was considered inauspicious to take in disciples at this time, so Liu Shimei postponed her meeting with Shu Yutong.
Liang Yi was highly skilled in manipulating the naval forces. That night, he sent people to spread the news in the streets and alleys.
After having breakfast, Liang Wei, accompanied by his eldest son, Liang Yong, escorted the injured King Dun Yu into the palace. Liu Shimei, as the chief physician, couldnt entrust her familys silly puppy to other physicians, so she naturally followed along.
Their son was wounded by a sword, so of course, Emperor Huangfu Quan had to bring the Empress to Deer Seeking Hall to visit. The Liang family briefly explained the situation, and the Emperor allowed them to leave the palace.
Upon seeing the Emperor and Empress, the Second Prince, in his simple-minded manner, began to sob, Father and Mother
Sob, sob, sob, blah, blah, blah Huangfu Lingyao began to ramble on.
