Chapter 1022 Trying to please the King of Liang?
Upon returning from the Prince Yang's residence, Chu Junting quickly learned of the Prince Liang's decision.
"How was it?" Song Ruozhen asked curiously.
"The Prince of Liang is still under house arrest. Originally, he was only confined for three months, but now he is confined for three years."
"Three years?"
Song Ruozhen was slightly taken aback. This was a very important time for the prince. Confining him to his quarters for three years would effectively extinguish all of Liang Wang's hopes.
Chu Junting nodded, "This matter involves Wu Yue'er. Originally, we wanted to choose a princess for her to cover up the shame of Wu Yue'er's child."
But now that things have escalated to this point, it is absolutely impossible for Prince Kang to continue to tolerate Wu Yue'er, and sending Wu Yue'er back is not a good idea either.
If word gets out, the entire royal family will lose face.
"So, is Wu Yue'er's current arrangement to send her to the Liang Prince's residence?" Song Ruozhen asked.
“That’s right, send her directly to the Liang Prince’s residence. When her child is born, just say it was born to Bu Qingyao,” Chu Junting explained.
Song Ruozhen couldn't help but shake her head, "Originally, this child was registered under the name of Princess Liang, so he was at least a legitimate son. Now, with this commotion, he has become an illegitimate son."
"Father Emperor spared the child's life because he had no children for so many years."
"Bu Qingyao also ended up with nothing. Not only did she go from being the main wife to a concubine, she also had to raise other people's children."
Song Ruozhen thought that with Bu Qingyao's proud personality, she would definitely not be able to stand such grievances, and she would probably make a big scene again.
The wicked will always have their match, and with Wu Yue'er and Bu Qingyao together, it's going to be another good show.
……
Prince Liang's Mansion.
After entering the Liang Prince's Mansion, Bu Qingyao looked at the courtyard where she was staying, which was not as nice as her previous residence, and felt extremely frustrated.
She originally wanted to be the mistress of the Liang Prince's mansion and enjoy honor there, but instead, she ended up living in this small courtyard and was just a concubine.
"I live here?" Bu Qingyao asked with disdain.
Seeing Bu Qingyao's disgusted expression, the old woman standing nearby sneered:
"A woman who gets into the prince's bed by drugging him is lucky to even be able to live here. Where else would you want to live?"
"How dare you speak so disrespectfully to your mistress! My young lady is now your master, how dare you speak to her like that? Do you want to be taught a lesson?" the maid said angrily.
However, the old woman curled her lip, looking completely disdainful.
"Everyone knows what kind of person you are. I am the head nanny of the Prince's mansion, and my brother is the steward of the mansion. You, a mere concubine, are not people you can order around!"
"She thinks she's some kind of noble lady, doing something so shameless. I'm afraid even the prince won't like her anymore."
"You can stay here peacefully with this yard. If you cause any more trouble, you'll be in big trouble!"
The old woman threw down a few words and turned to leave. She had been in this palace for so many years, and even the former princess would never have treated her like this.
A mere concubine dares to defy the heavens?
She knew her prince's temperament all too well. Not only did he dislike frivolous women, but this woman had also caused the prince to be confined to his quarters and even punished. No wonder the prince wouldn't give her a kind look!
"Hey, you old hag!"
The maid looked at her incredulously, "Miss, the old nanny in the Liang Prince's mansion is so ill-mannered. She is a servant, and you are the mistress. How dare she treat you like this?"
"Just you wait, once I've captured the prince's heart, I'll make sure she doesn't get away with it!"
Bu Qingyao gritted her teeth in anger; she couldn't swallow this insult no matter what.
However, thinking about her current situation, I felt inexplicably sad.
Her only chance right now is to take advantage of the fact that there are few people in the prince's backyard and try to win his heart.
As long as the prince's heart is with her, then she still has hope.
"The prince has been confined to his quarters for three years. During these three years, there will probably be no other women in the harem. As long as I seize this time, make the prince fall in love with me, and give birth to his child, I will definitely be able to keep my position."
Thinking of this, Bu Qingyao personally made some snacks and took them to the Prince of Liang's courtyard.
King Liang is currently locked in his room by himself, and he doesn't want to see anyone right now.
He didn't understand why, when everything initially went according to plan, it ended up like this.
"I've been confined for three years... My father knew I was framed, yet he still chose to confine me for three years."
This is clearly an indication that they don't want me to cause trouble for Chu Junting; they've already completely decided that the third son is the crown prince!
King Liang gritted his teeth in hatred. He had planned everything, but he lost because of a woman!
Qi Qingyi, Wu Yue'er, Bu Qingyao, all these women deserve to die!
Just then, a woman's voice came from outside.
"Your Highness, I am Qingyao."
"The prince is not seeing anyone. Get out!"
Bu Qingyao looked at the guard who had stopped her, her face grim. "I just arrived at the Prince's residence today and wanted to see the Prince. You didn't even announce my arrival. How do you know the Prince doesn't want to see me?"
"Don't you know what you've done?"
You've wronged the Prince so badly, and now you still have the nerve to come see him? You're utterly shameless!
Bu Qingyao was scolded, and her face turned ugly. "I know I'm sorry to the prince. The prince was tricked, but I... I was also tricked by Wu Yue'er."
Otherwise, things wouldn't have turned out this way.
I have come today to apologize to Your Highness and hope that Your Highness will forgive me.
"The prince will only find you annoying. You should leave now and not stay here."
The guard waved his hand. The news of the prince's misdeeds had already spread. He had lost face so badly at the royal banquet and was now under house arrest. Even if he were to go out again later, it would be nothing like before.
"I must see the prince."
"Squeak."
The door suddenly opened.
Bu Qingyao looked at the Prince of Liang as he walked out, a hint of excitement in her eyes.
She knew that the prince would not ignore her.
She was a famous beauty in the capital, and everyone who saw her would praise her beauty. How could the prince, as a man, be indifferent to her?
This is absolutely impossible!
"Your Highness, these are some snacks I made especially for you. Would you like to try some?"
Bu Qingyao quickly stepped forward and handed over the pastries she was holding.
Looking at Bu Qingyao in front of him, King Liang was too caught up in the chaos of that night to even glance at her.
He took in Bu Qingyao's expression. This woman didn't need to say anything; he could tell what she was thinking just by looking at her.
Stupid and ignorant!
Extremely stupid!
"Snapped!"
A loud slap landed on Bu Qingyao's face.
The pastries in Bu Qingyao's hands rolled to the ground, the plate shattered, and she herself rolled down the plate.
