Chapter 54 Ye Yaoyao's Delusions
Ye Yaoyao was no stranger to this person. She was Mu Ningyan, the daughter of the eldest princess. She was granted the title of princess and, relying on her status, she was usually domineering and arrogant.
Mu Ningyan and the two sisters did not get along. First, she targeted Ye Xiyao for no reason. Ye Yaoyao once helped her sister vent her anger by pretending to faint and knocking her to the ground.
Mu Ningyan was knocked to the ground and suffered in silence, unable to vent her anger.
After that, every time he saw Ye Yaoyao, he would call her "sickly" in an attempt to save face.
[System, investigate why she's so hostile towards us sisters.]
[Host, please look!]
What? The Eldest Princess hates my mother, so she's targeting my sisters and me? What grudge does my mother have against the Eldest Princess?
Ye Yaoyao was filled with doubts and searched through her memories but could not recall any conflict between her mother and the princess.
The eldest princess is of noble status, and for her to hate her mother for more than ten years, the enmity they have formed is no ordinary one. I wonder if they are rivals in love.
Did my mother steal the princess's beloved? No, if it were a scumbag father, he would be too busy fawning over the princess to marry my mother. It must be that the person she likes likes my mother.
Oh! I remember now. Everyone in the capital city knows that the princess and her husband are not getting along. The princess even dares to keep male lovers, but there is no news about the grand prince consort. It's very mysterious!
There are also rumors that the Grand Prince Consort has renounced worldly life and gone to cultivate himself. Is that true?
Yes, he went to cultivate himself.
Instead of enjoying a life of wealth and luxury, he went to a temple to practice Buddhism. It seems he was truly heartbroken.
After analyzing it, Ye Yaoyao felt she had figured out the truth.
Sigh! It seems the Grand Prince Consort might love my mother. System, do you think my mother and the Grand Prince Consort were originally a loving couple, and then the Princess intervened and separated them?
The Grand Prince Consort had no choice but to marry the Eldest Princess, while my mother, heartbroken, married my scumbag father. The Grand Prince Consort couldn't let go of my mother, and not wanting the Eldest Princess to find fault with him, he went off to become a Buddhist monk.
Later, perhaps out of loneliness or to retaliate against her husband for cheating on her, the eldest princess began keeping male concubines.
Ye Yaoyao's eyes sparkled with gossip, and she became more and more excited as she thought about it, as if she could see that complicated emotional entanglement.
[Host, you have such a vivid imagination! You could write a whole story about it.]
The host is really prone to daydreaming.
Ye Xiyao was completely bewildered by Ye Yaoyao's analysis, her expression somewhat blank. She never expected her sister to come up with such an outrageous plot.
She had never heard that the eldest princess and her mother were rivals in love, and she felt it was impossible.
Mu Ningyan kept staring at Ye Yaoyao, noticing her staring blankly ahead, then looking puzzled, then incredulous, and finally nodding with certainty. Her expression was very strange, changing frequently.
"Princess, Ye Yaoyao came out of the coffin. Could she have been possessed by something?"
Behind Mu Ningyan, He Zhixuan spoke in a low, trembling voice, her hands gripping the hem of her clothes tightly, her eyes filled with fear, as if Ye Yaoyao were truly different from everyone else.
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Mu Ningyan glared at He Zhixuan and scolded her.
"Sickly boy, what are you thinking? I'm speaking to you again, do you dare not answer?"
Mu Ningyan's eyebrows furrowed, and she glared at her angrily.
Ye Yaoyao snapped out of her daze, raised an eyebrow, and looked at her with a hint of disdain.
"What I'm thinking is none of your business, Princess."
Mu Ningyan gritted her teeth in anger.
"Ye Yaoyao, you ungrateful thing, how dare you speak to this princess like that!"
Ye Yaoyao's lips curled up, revealing a mysterious smile.
"Princess Chang Le, you'd better not always act so arrogantly, or that noble person won't take a liking to you!"
"What noble person?"
Mu Ningyan found Ye Yaoyao ridiculous. She was a princess, and the current emperor was her uncle. Who would dare to disrespect her?
"Naturally, it's the noble person that Princess Chang wants you to marry."
Ye Yaoyao looked at her with a half-smile, inwardly thinking:
The eldest princess is a crazy woman; she actually wants Mu Ningyan to marry her younger brother, Prince Jing, who is also the ninth imperial uncle of the current dynasty.
Prince Jing and the eldest princess are siblings, so it's truly shocking that a nephew would marry her uncle.
Prince Jing was truly unlucky to have been targeted by this mother and daughter.
Mu Ningyan stared at Ye Yaoyao in shock. Was the benefactor she was referring to Prince Jing? Her mother did indeed intend for her to marry Prince Jing.
However, only a small number of members of the royal family knew about this matter after Prince Jing returned to the capital. Her mother only mentioned it to her this morning during breakfast.
She came here right after breakfast, so Ye Yaoyao couldn't possibly know. Where did she get the information from?
"Sickly fellow, what nonsense are you spouting?"
Mu Ningyan forced herself to remain calm and shouted loudly, trying to cover up her inner panic.
"Huh! You're not going to marry the Ninth Emperor...?"
"Where did you hear this rumor?"
Mu Ningyan could no longer bear it and shouted out, interrupting Ye Yaoyao.
Ye Yaoyao truly knew. Mu Ningyan looked at her in horror. Could it be that after lying in the coffin, she really became different from ordinary people?
This matter must not be spread. Prince Jing is her maternal uncle, and it would be against propriety for her to marry the Ninth Prince's maternal uncle.
"Ye Yaoyao, don't talk nonsense. If I hear any rumors outside, our Princess's Mansion will not let you off the hook."
The noble ladies in the school were completely bewildered. What kind of riddle were these two talking about? And why did Princess Chang Le look so frightened?
The noble ladies looked at each other, their faces full of confusion, their gazes shifting back and forth between Ye Yaoyao and Mu Ningyan.
"It was told to me by a deity, so I don't think it's false."
"You think you can see gods?"
Mu Ningyan snorted coldly, her face full of disbelief.
"Why not? I wouldn't use my status to scald a pretty maid's face with boiling water, nor would I torture cute little animals, nor would I make servants kneel on the frozen river in winter..."
"Shut up, Ye Yaoyao!"
Mu Ningyan's face turned extremely ugly, and her eyes were filled with horror.
These are all things she did. This sickly woman is indeed different from before. Did she send someone to investigate her?
"What's wrong? I said all this to say that I'm a good person."
Ye Yaoyao's clear eyes were innocent and her face was full of purity.
"you……"
Mu Ningyan thought to herself that Ye Yaoyao was not only strange, but had also become bolder.
“Princess Chang Le, my younger sister has only just recovered from falling into the water. Please don’t be angry with her,” Ye Xiyao said.
"Hmph! Ye Xiyao, I heard that you caused your grandmother to suffer in a nunnery. You, a woman of talent, are truly filial."
Mu Ningyan turned her attention to Ye Xiyao, launching into a barrage of sarcastic remarks.
Ye Yaoyao knows too much about her. If she can't argue with her, can't she argue with Ye Xiyao?
"Princess, it was His Majesty's decree that Grandmother went to the nunnery to practice Buddhism. Does Your Majesty mean that His Majesty wanted Grandmother to suffer?"
Ye Xiyao spoke neither humbly nor arrogantly, and Ye Yaoyao took over the conversation.
"I remember the Grand Prince Consort also went to cultivate himself. Could it be that he also went there to suffer?"
"You...you two are so nice, you two sisters are so good."
The Princess's residence was in complete disarray. Mu Ningyan disliked people mentioning this matter the most. She glared at Ye Yaoyao and gripped the whip at her waist with one hand.
