Chapter 666: Trash Always Comes Knocking on My Door

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Previously, Huangfu Yao had provided an excellent opportunity, and Liu Shimei took advantage of it. Now, she smoothly left Yuebin Pavilion with her family without the need to report to the Crown Prince.

On the riverbank beside Yuebin Pavilion, there was a stretch of willow trees.

Although July was the hottest time of the year, soon to be followed by autumn, the breeze by the river made the willow branches sway, creating a pleasant atmosphere under the shade.

Huangfu Lingyao led his wife by the hand, happily strolling without lingering at Yuebin Pavilion.

Liu Shimei found the weather a bit too hot, wrinkling her brows and saying, “It’s too hot.”

Walking here in the middle of the day, she felt a bit out of her mind!

She missed air-conditioned rooms!

Seeing her sweating, Huangfu Lingyao couldn’t bear to see her suffer in the heat. After some thought, he said, “Wife, how about we find a private room and have someone bring some chilled bayberry soup to quench our thirst? Don’t want you to get sick from the heat in a little while!”

In the scorching summer, heatstroke was easy to catch.

“Sure,” Liu Shimei said to her maid, Mo’er, who was leading Shu Yutong ahead, “Mo’er, go ask if there’s a private room for us to rest.”

“Yes.” Mo’er, who had worked in wealthy households for a long time, was more skilled at handling such matters than Lian Qiao. She handed Shu Yutong over to Lian Qiao and went to inquire.

After a while, she returned and reported, “Eldest Young Miss, up ahead is the Riverview Pavilion. I asked, and High Highness can go in.”

They walked towards Riverview Pavilion.

Just as they reached the entrance, they were unexpectedly stopped. “Riverview Pavilion is a summer retreat reserved for the Crown Prince and the Princes. Who allowed you to enter?”

It was Huangfu Yao!

Liu Shimei furrowed her brows.

Honestly, she didn’t want to deal with scum, but the scum always seemed to present themselves willingly!

Riverview Pavilion was a pavilion built on the water, naturally cooler than the buildings on the ground. When the Crown Prince arrived, it was only normal for this place to be reserved for him.

However, when Huangfu Yao spoke in such a manner, it made her uncomfortable. She pursed her lips and said, “Since it’s reserved for the Crown Prince, may I ask Fourth Prince, is our King Dun Yu not a royal son?”

Huangfu Yao was momentarily stunned.

Without giving him a chance, she continued coldly, “Please confirm this, Fourth Prince, before answering the question. Otherwise, I will bring this matter to the Emperor and inquire carefully whether my betrothed, King Dun Yu, is truly a royal offspring!”

These words made Huangfu Yao’s face turn pale and then green!

He dared not say that Huangfu Lingyao was not a royal son!

If it really reached the Emperor, the situation would evolve into him questioning the authenticity of the Emperor’s offspring, essentially suspecting the Emperor of being cuckolded by the former Empress!

Who would dare to say such a thing?!

“Artful words!” Huangfu Yao could not contain his anger and said, “Are you using these means to sway between the Crown Prince and the Second Prince?” This woman was too good at finding loopholes!

Liu Shimei’s pupils slightly widened, her brows furrowed, a hint of hostility appearing.

Huangfu Lingyao’s face instantly darkened, “Damn younger brother, your mouth stinks. I wouldn’t mind tossing you into the river to wash it!”

Huangfu Yao seemed to have found a handle, restrained his anger, and said with a smile, “What’s the matter? Did I hit a nerve, making you angrily embarrassed?”

He laughed heartily, “Haha! Just now, I was sitting next to the Crown Prince. As soon as he sat down, he asked about the whereabouts of the Liu family. Without getting a precise answer, he later inquired about the whereabouts of the Second Prince! The implication here, anyone with a brain should understand, right?”

Isn’t it so?

As soon as he sat down, he asked about the Liu family, combining the past interactions between Huangfu He and Liu Shimei, the unexplained eye contact, and the Emperor and Empress’s previous favoritism towards making Liu Shimei the Crown Princess…

Who wouldn’t have thought that Huangfu He was not asking about the other members of the Liu family; he was only concerned about Liu Shimei!
