Chapter 186: Yuyan is assassinated
As soon as Yue Yuyan recovered, she couldn't wait to write a letter to the Fourth Prince, asking him to meet at Jingxin Tea House in the afternoon.
After the Fourth Prince received the letter, he whispered a few words into Mo Yan's ear...
Yue Yuyan was dressed very simply today. The clothes she was wearing were brought by Yue Jinghao when she came to see her a few days ago. The material was the finest Shu brocade, and the fur on the cuffs was white mink, which looked gorgeous and warm.
While Luzhi was arranging Yue Yuyan's clothes, she said, "Miss, the size that Miss made for you is really right! Look how well this dress fits you!"
Yue Yuyan paused slightly while tidying up her clothes. No matter how she listened to Luzhi's words, she felt uncomfortable. "Just say less. What big sister gives is naturally good!"
Luzhi thought Yue Yuyan didn't want to talk about Yue Jinghao behind her back, so she shut up. She then carefully combed Yue Yuyan's hair. "What headgear do you want to wear, young lady?"
Yue Yuyan glanced at the few pieces of jewelry she had left and took out a white jade hairpin, "Just wear this..."
Luzhi compared the plain hairpin to Yue Yuyan's hair and said, "Wouldn't it be a bit too plain to wear only this?"
Yue Yuyan curled up a cold smile, the simpler the better.
Wei Zilin was reading a book in Jingxin Tea House. When he saw Yue Yuyan coming in, he put down the book.
"Your humble servant greets the Fourth Prince~" Yue Yuyan bowed respectfully, her tone somewhat weak.
Wei Zilin stepped forward and helped Yue Yuyan up. He looked at her and asked, "Why are you dressed so plainly today?"
Yue Yuyan wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, "I guess the Fourth Prince has also heard about... my aunt's affairs... My aunt just passed away, how could I dress up..."
Wei Zilin sighed, "As expected, Yuyan is a filial daughter! I'm sure Aunt Su would be pleased if she knew about this."
Yue Yuyan sobbed softly twice and didn't say anything.
Wei Zilin personally poured a cup of tea for Yue Yuyan, "Yuyan asked me to come here today... is there anything?"
Yue Yuyan shook her head. "It's not that I have something to do, it's just that... I missed you."
Wei Zilin grabbed Yue Yuyan's hand and stared at her face. "Why does this prince feel that Miss Yuyan has lost some weight?"
Yue Yuyan gently brushed her face with her hand. "My aunt is gone. I am heartbroken and have lost my appetite for many days... so it is normal for me to be a little thin."
"The dead cannot be resurrected, Yuyan should take care of herself!"
"..."
After expressing their true feelings to each other, Wei Zilin offered to send Yue Yuyan back home.
"Will it cause trouble for the Fourth Prince?" Yue Yuyan lowered her head, looking as if she wanted to say something but hesitated.
"I am really worried about you being like this! I'd better send you back home myself!" Wei Zilin hugged Yue Yuyan's shoulders with a distressed look on his face and ordered people to prepare the carriage.
In the carriage, Yue Yuyan leaned in Wei Zilin's arms, thinking about finding a suitable opportunity to make it a done deal with Wei Zilin, so that she could marry into the Fourth Prince's mansion as a concubine. Look at Fan Ronghua, didn't she become the prince's concubine because she was discovered with the prince?
Yue Yuyan was thinking when suddenly the carriage jolted and then the sound of fighting was heard outside the carriage.
"Fourth Prince, there is an ambush!" Mo Yan's voice came from outside the car, followed by several screams of pain.
Yue Yuyan was so frightened that she didn't even dare to breathe. She clutched Wei Zilin's clothes tightly and didn't move.
“Don’t be afraid, Yuyan. This prince will protect you!” Wei Zilin held Yue Yuyan in his arms and comforted her softly.
For the first time, Yue Yuyan felt how happy it was to be protected by a man...
What's more, this man is a prince of noble status...
