Chapter 437 - 195: Does This Have Anything to Do With You?
However, the Emperor is so eager, could it be that he really did something to her last night?
No, no, no. From what he knows about the Emperor, he should not do something as forceful as that to a woman.
"Why would the Emperor suddenly annul Yao’er’s marriage? What’s the hidden reason behind this?"
After pondering for a while without any clue, Lady Yun looked up and asked in confusion.
Although the annulment of this marriage is a good thing for our family, what on earth happened here?
This matter came too suddenly. Without a clear explanation, she couldn’t be at ease.
Upon hearing her words, Yun Wanyao shrank back, feeling involuntarily guilty and fearful, with an uncontrollable urge to flee rising in her heart.
The next moment, she acted on it.
"Um, mother, it’s not good to keep King Qi waiting too long, I’ll go see him now..."
Leaving these words behind, without waiting for anyone to react, Yun Wanyao quickly headed towards the door, and in no time, her figure completely disappeared.
"Ah..."
Lady Yun reached out to stop her, but before she could speak, she had already vanished. Lady Yun could only sigh helplessly.
Sitting on her brother’s lap, Yun Wanqing, who was watching all along, withdrew her gaze from the disappearing Yun Wanyao, her bright eyes narrowing in a thoughtful look.
Then, the crowd heard her inner voice continuing to emerge one sentence after another.
[Sister looks very guilty and ashamed. I guess, the reason the Emperor suddenly issued a decree to annul the marriage must be because Sister did something disgraceful.]
[Perhaps, it’s not just Sister alone; Second Brother is also highly suspicious.]
[Today, Sister and Second Brother’s interactions were very unusual, something definitely felt off~]
[Sister seemed to be quite angry with Second Brother, and Second Brother just took it all easily. In the past, he wouldn’t have let Sister off so easily. So...]
A light bulb suddenly went off in Yun Wanqing’s mind, realizing something incredible. She looked sharply at Yun Wanye, whose expression was peculiar.
[Could it be, the mastermind behind this is actually Second Brother? Was Sister set up by him, forced to become an accomplice and do some unspeakable things?]
[No, no, no. Sister is this angry, it can’t be that simple. Second Brother must have done something else, trapping her in a bad situation.]
[Otherwise, Sister wouldn’t look at Second Brother with such a murderous urge, as if wanting to bite him.]
[Yes, yes, yes. That must be it. Second Brother wants to be with the Princess, and he thinks Sister’s marriage to King Qi is in the way, so he plotted to destroy it.]
[But what exactly did Second Brother do?]
[How could Sister’s marriage be annulled so easily? This was an arrangement made by the late Emperor.]
[I’ve racked my brain, but I can’t figure out what Second Brother persuaded Sister to do that made the marriage annulment happen so easily.]
[...]
Lady Yun: "????"
Yun Wanchen: "????"
Yun Wanye: "..."
Following Yun Wanqing’s inner voice, everyone’s gaze fell on Yun Wanye, locking onto him tightly, making him feel as if he had nowhere to hide.
Yun Wanye felt extremely guilty under their gaze, and the calm facade he was trying to maintain nearly crumbled.
The little sister was too good at guessing, always hitting the mark, and unknowingly selling him out.
Alas, he couldn’t even remember how many times Little Sister had sold him out. Yun Wanye felt like crying but had no tears, filled with helplessness.
Moments later, Lady Yun and Yun Wanchen finally digested Yun Wanqing’s inner voice.
Yun Wanchen curled his lips a little, hanging his head and playing with Yun Wanqing’s small fingers, looking uninterested and indifferent.
Lady Yun, on the other hand, looked at Yun Wanye in disbelief and spoke out.
"Yun Wanye, is this matter related to you?"
Originally, she hadn’t thought about it, but after hearing Yun Wanqing’s inner voice, she immediately understood.
Ningning’s guess must be right; things must indeed be this way.
It’s got to be that this boy felt Yao’er’s engagement was a hindrance to him, so he secretly meddled, leading to the annulment of Yao’er and King Qi’s marriage.
If he could ruin the marriage between the Princess and Lu Huaixin, of course, he could find a way to ruin Yao’er and King Qi’s marriage. It’s just unknown what he instructed Yao’er to do.
King Qi is not the same as Lu Huaixin. If the secret gets exposed when he extends his hand to King Qi, what good could come for this boy?
It might even cause King Qi to bear a grudge and implicate the entire Yun Family.
Not knowing the ins and outs of the situation, Lady Yun felt very uneasy and was deeply worried that Yun Wanye might have acted recklessly without considering the consequences and offended King Qi.
