Wicked Prince's Abandoned Wife

Yun Ruo Lu didn't expect that Yuchi Xuan would ask such a question after such a long time had passed. Could it be that he suspected that the person who took away the red calyx was the person he was looking for?

Red Calyx calmly lifted the corner of her mouth. Her voice was soft and weak, as if it had nothing to do with her. "Since Your Highness already understands, why do you need to ask?"

Yun Ruo Lu was flabbergasted by his arrogant attitude, domineering demeanor and his reserved expression.

Yun Ruo Lu didn't know what Red Fruit meant by this. She was thinking that perhaps Yuchi Xuan already knew of something, and it was she who was purposefully trying to confuse Yuchi Xuan.

Yuchi Xuan's expression froze. His face immediately darkened, and a hint of chilliness appeared in his sinister eyes.

"He is currently in This King's prison. Do you want to go and see him?"

Upon hearing these words, Yun Ruo Lu and Redcalyx were flabbergasted. They hadn't thought that Yuchi Xuan would actually be able to catch a Night Bat. This was simply too inconceivable.

She lightly inhaled, but she did not show any signs of panic. There was a hint of ridicule in her eyes, but her tone was still as calm as before, "Life or death depends on you, what does it have to do with me!"

Such emotionless words sounded like two unrelated people.

Yuchi Xuan looked at her silently for a few seconds, then clapped his hands and laughed. However … His life is in your hands. "

Listening up to here, Yun Ruo Lu saw some clues. It seemed that Yuchi Xuan wanted to threaten her, and his purpose in doing so was nothing more than to achieve his goal.

"What do you want?"

She looked straight into Yuchi Xuan's eyes, her indifferent eyes filled with fearlessness. She did not feel threatened or afraid at all.

Yuchi Xuan gave a cold snort and said, "Tell me the whereabouts of the previous crown prince, and I will spare his life!"

The previous dynasty's crown prince? Yun Ruo Lu covered her mouth in shock. Could it be that Yuchi Xuan had been unable to find her because Red Calyx had hidden him?

She did not know what that man's purpose was for her plan, but she knew that everything she did had a purpose.

However, how could Yuchi Xuan know that it had something to do with the red calyx? Since he already knew about the red calyx and the Night Bat, would he know about the matter of her bringing the red calyx back to the forest that night?

Yun Ruo Lu felt a bit nervous in her heart as she watched how Red Calyx was going to deal with this situation.

What shocked Yun Ruo Lu even more was that she was unable to hear a single word of the conversation that followed. It was as though there was a soundproof glass between the two of them, so she could only hear their conversation.

Could it be that she knew that she was eavesdropping and did not want her to know about their conversation?

Yun Ruo thought to herself and eavesdropped for a while. She still couldn't find anything, so she had no choice but to return to the west wing courtyard.

As long as Red Calyx returned, she would also be able to find out what was going on.

When Yun Ruo Lu returned to her courtyard, she waited for the return of the red calyx. The quiet courtyard was especially lonely at night, but it was unable to calm her heart down.

She waited until the early hours of the morning before she staggered back. She looked as if she had suffered a great blow. Her calm face was now completely pale.

Seeing her enter the house, Yun Ruo immediately came out of the house and followed her.

"You haven't slept at all this late at night. You must have been waiting for a long time."

Hearing the sound of Yun Ruo Lu's footsteps as she entered the house, she sat down on a chair and rubbed her forehead with her hands as she spoke softly.

"What did you say to the prince?" Did you really hide that person? "

Yun Ruo Lu did not beat around the bush, but directly asked what she wanted to know because she knew, in front of Hong Zhu, she could not find the right words to say.

"This is none of your business. It might not be beneficial to know too much!"

She didn't answer Yunruo's question. Instead, she lowered her eyes, making it difficult for others to see the expression in her eyes.

"It doesn't matter if you don't tell me, but I hope that you won't tell the Prince too many things either."

Right now, she was most worried about how much information Yuchi Xuan had. If the truth were revealed, no one would benefit.

"I'm not that stupid. It's already very late, and I want to rest. You can go back now."

After she finished speaking, she lightly raised her hand and the door to the guest hall was blown open by a gust of wind. Yun Ruo Lu looked at her deeply. Seeing that she didn't want to say anything more, she didn't continue to question her, and left with a flick of her sleeve.

The next day, Yuchi Xuan ordered someone to inform Yun Ruo Lu to move back to her original residence, saying that she no longer needed to guard the west wing.

Yun Ruo Lu felt quite curious about Yuchi Xuan's strange actions. She thought to herself that there were only a few days left until the Emperor's birthday. Was he not worried that something might go wrong?

Or could it be that Yuchi Xuan and Redbud had already reached an agreement last night, so Yuchi Xuan was very confident in their relationship.

Yun Ruo Lu couldn't disobey Yuchi Xuan's orders yet, so she had to move out from the west wing courtyard. This way, he would have fewer opportunities to interact with the red calyx.

Yun Ruo Lu couldn't help but suspect that Yuchi Xuan had already begun to suspect the relationship between her and Redbud. That was why he wanted to get rid of her on purpose.

Yun Ruo Lu moved back to her residence, packed her things, and went to find Yuchi Xuan.

Yuchi Xuan had been shut in his study the entire time. A guard came to report that the prince didn't have time to see her, so he told her to go back first.

The next few days were like this. Not only was Yun Ruo Lu unable to see Yuchi Xuan, she couldn't even enter the western courtyard.

However, even though this was the case, nothing major had happened. Everything was very calm, as if nothing had happened at all.

Yun Ruo was alone in her room, bored to death, reading a book. Since Yuchi Xuan didn't have the time to pay attention to her, she could use this time to learn something of interest to herself.

Just as Yun Ruo You was looking at this matter with rapt attention, a pair of tender and white hands suddenly appeared in front of her. Yun Ruo Lu raised her head and saw Xiang Qing smiling at her.

"Master, I missed you so much!"

Xiangqing sweetly called out to her master before throwing herself at Yunruo and acting like a spoiled child. She looked extremely adorable.

"Yes, Master. Long time no see. Have you been well at the prince's mansion?"

Jin Se followed behind Xiangqing with the same look of yearning.

Seeing Xiang Qing and Jin Se, Yun Ruo's tired mood relaxed quite a bit. She smiled at them and asked, "How come you two little devils have the time to leave the palace today?"

It had been a long time since she saw Xiang Qing and Jinsi. She had almost forgotten how long it was since they last came to the Prince's Mansion.

"Father's birthday is coming up in three days, so the palace guards are also tight. It won't be easy to get out of the palace."

Xiang Qing complained with a childish tone, as if she was very vexed.

Yun Ruo Lu raised her head and glanced at Jin Se, only to see Jin Se nodding her head. It was easy to imagine how stuffy these two girls had been in the palace.

There were only three days left for the Emperor's birthday, so starting from the beginning of the month, preparations were made in the Imperial Palace. In these few days, the guards were even ten times stricter than before, and even the palace servants were restricted from entering and leaving the Imperial Palace.

"Since the security is so tight, how did you get the chance to come out today?"

Yun Ruo Lu had originally thought that she would only have the chance to see them after the emperor's birthday banquet ended.

"I told royal father that I wanted to prepare a very special gift for him, so royal father specifically authorized me to leave the palace with senior sister."

"Oh? What gift does Xiangqing want to prepare? "

Yun Ruo Lu looked curiously at Xiang Qing. She didn't know what kind of evil plans she had in mind.

"I don't know either. Senior said that as long as we can get Master's help, we can definitely give royal father a surprise."

Xiang Qing opened her eyes wide, looking at Yun Ruo Man with a gaze filled with hope.

Yun Ruo Lu glared viciously at Jin Se. Seeing that that stinking girl purposely avoided her gaze, she knew that she must have thought of this idea.

However, since Xiang Qing had already spoken, she didn't want to disappoint her, so she thought for a moment and said, "Let master think carefully, he definitely won't disappoint you."

"Good!" Great! Thank you, Master! "

Xiang Qing happily jumped up and down on the ground. Even when she grew up in the palace, she didn't lose her childish nature.

"Master, there's one more thing that Xiangqing wants to tell you …"

"Ah …" Princess, don't! "

After Xiang Qing finished being happy, she started to speak again. However, halfway through her words, Jinsi anxiously ran over and covered her mouth with her hand.

Yun Ruo Lu did not want to be kept a secret the most, so seeing how nervous Jin Se was, she knew that they must have something to hide from her.

"Jin'er!" Let Xiangqing finish her words! "

Yun Ruo Lu glared at Jin Se, who could only obediently let go, revealing a bitter face, as if she was really unlucky.

Xiang Qing looked at Yun Ruo Lu and then stared at Jin Se. She giggled and said, "Master, I know you're the same as senior, you're both a woman."

Upon hearing these words, Yun Ruo You was so shocked that she almost knocked over the teacup in her hands. She looked at Jin Se with an ashen face, and asked her what was going on.

"Jin'er …!"

Jin'er's face was sorrowful as she recounted what happened, "Miss, didn't you teach Jin'er how to take risks with her words before? Jin'er and the princess were bored in the palace, so they played this game. Then, the princess asked you about your matters, so Jin'er had no choice but to reveal your identity. "

Hearing Jinsi's explanation, Yun Ruo Lu suddenly had the impulse to cut in on her. Was this also called as a last resort? Even if a loyal servant were to place a knife on his neck, he would not reveal even the slightest bit of his master's secret.

Furthermore, when she played this game with Jinye, she only wanted to get some words out of him. She didn't expect that she would harm him now.

Of course, this was just a metaphor for her, because she had never treated Jinsi as the real current person.

Yun Ruo's face was dark as she asked with a sinister tone, "Then what else did you say?"

Yun Ruo Lu suddenly felt that staying by Xiang Qing's side was even more dangerous than staying in the Fifth Prince's Mansion.

"Nothing but gender."

As Jinsi spoke, he winked at Yun Ruo. Yun Ruo understood that Xiangqing still didn't know her true identity.

It wasn't that she didn't believe in Xiangqing, but she was still a child and didn't have much of a guard against her, so she was easily taken advantage of.

"Master, don't blame me for this. Xiangqing will keep this a secret. She definitely won't reveal a single word to anyone."

Yun Ruo Lu's anger was greatly reduced as she placed her hand on the oath. She said helplessly, "Good girl Xiang Qing, if this is known to others, will Master be in danger?"

Xiang Qing obediently nodded her head, then continued to speak in an unrelenting manner, "Master, can you be my Imperial Father's concubine?"
