Chapter 114 The Ruthless and Cold-Hearted Emperor and His Beloved Concubine 12
Chu Yue followed Shanhu to a quiet hall with simple furnishings and several sets of clothes hanging on a clothes rack.
“My dear sister, these are just in case. They are clean, so you may change into them,” Coral said respectfully.
"Okay, I'll be there after I'm done changing. Thank you for your help," Chu Yue said with a smile.
"This servant wouldn't dare. In that case, this servant will take her leave." After saying this, Coral respectfully withdrew.
Chu Yue picked out a light blue dress, and Xiao Tao helped her change into it.
"Liangdi, shall we go over there?" Xiaotao asked after changing her clothes and seeing that she didn't move.
Chu Yue shook her head: "We still have to go. It wouldn't be good to be impolite. Let's go."
Xiao Tao nodded and helped her out.
The two had only taken a few steps outside when they encountered Prince Cheng. Chu Yue's expression changed slightly, her heart skipped a beat, and she took a few steps back.
King Cheng originally intended to take a stroll in the Imperial Garden, but the Queen was holding a banquet there.
He naturally wouldn't go there, and since the Crown Prince was with Emperor Jingyuan, he wouldn't go there either. That's why he was wandering around the palace, and unexpectedly, he ran into a beauty from the Crown Prince's palace.
The King raised the corners of his mouth, and his scrutinizing gaze made Chu Yue frown and turn her body slightly away.
Xiao Tao stepped forward and stood in front of him.
"Why are you hiding, my beauty? Are you afraid I'll eat you?" King Cheng took two steps forward, finding Chu Yue's frightened appearance even more amusing.
I've often thought of Chu Yue ever since I saw her at Emperor Jingyuan's birthday celebration. I never imagined there was such a beauty in the Crown Prince's palace.
He's really lucky. The position of crown prince is his, and he has a beautiful woman by his side. Heaven is truly biased.
"Please be careful with your words, Your Highness. I am His Highness the Crown Prince's woman," Chu Yue said coldly, suppressing her disgust.
"The Crown Prince's man? The Crown Prince has been deposed for so long, is he still any good? Why don't you come with me, my beauty, and I will definitely treat you well." With no one around, Prince Cheng was already a womanizer, and the woman in front of him was the Crown Prince's man, so he was even more determined to flirt with her.
"You..." Xiao Tao was also trembling with fear. How did she end up encountering this King Cheng?
"Zero Zero One, give him the drug to stop his erectile dysfunction, let him be arrogant." Chu Yue was really angry.
Linglingyi quickly offered: "Yueyue, it's free, but the effect is amazing. Also, His Highness the Crown Prince is not far away. He just finished discussing matters with Emperor Jingyuan and is about to go to Empress Xiao's place."
"understood."
"..."
"My beauty, how about it? Do you want to come with me?" King Cheng took two more steps forward, his eyes fixed on Chu Yue.
If this delicate beauty were to serve me, I would surely find it an unforgettable experience.
Chu Yue rolled her eyes and asked, "How does Your Highness intend to pamper me?"
"Liangdi!" Xiaotao exclaimed in a panic.
Chu Yue secretly tugged at her sleeve, signaling her not to worry.
"Haha, you're quite sensible. If you follow me, you can have whatever you want." King Cheng was very satisfied with her attitude.
"Yueyue, the Crown Prince is almost here!" Linglingyi exclaimed excitedly, "This is going to be interesting!"
Chu Yue glanced behind Prince Cheng and said with some regret, "I... am His Highness's woman, how can I follow the Prince?"
"You don't need to worry about that. I will explain it to my father. He loves me the most and will grant my request." Prince Cheng stepped forward anxiously, wanting to take Chu Yue's hand.
"Yueyue, the Crown Prince has arrived!" Roar!
Chu Yue took a few steps back subtly. "Then... I'll have to ask His Highness if he agrees to this?"
"Why are you asking him? He's a cripple. Once you've followed me, you'll know how good I am." Prince Cheng impatiently tried to tug at her sleeve.
Chu Yue glanced behind him; the black and gold hem of his robes was faintly visible. She cried out in panic, "Help! Someone help me..."
Xiao Tao didn't understand what was happening, but she did whatever Liang Di did, and also shouted, "Help!"
"You!" King Cheng was instantly stunned. This damned woman! He wanted to step forward and cover her mouth to stop her from shouting.
Chu Yue's throat trembled as she backed away from his hand.
When the crown prince heard the commotion and came over, he saw King Cheng molesting his concubine.
Consort Chu fearfully tried to avoid Prince Cheng, but just as he was about to grab her sleeve, the Crown Prince, enraged, strode forward and kicked her.
After being kicked in the back, King Cheng felt a sharp pain in his chest. He turned around with a furious expression, but before he could speak, he was kicked in the chest again.
He vomited blood instantly, staggered and collapsed to the ground. He tried to speak, but blood gushed out as soon as he opened his mouth.
Chu Yue was terrified; her face turned deathly pale, and her lips were bitten until they bled.
The crown prince approached her with a grim expression. Chu Yue stammered, "I...I didn't...provoke him..."
"Your Highness..."
The Crown Prince looked at Chu Yue, whose clothes were slightly disheveled, and was furious. What was she running around for?
Without a word, he picked her up and carried her into the nearest palace, while Xiao Tao stood guard outside, still shaken.
The Crown Prince's two kicks were incredibly powerful; even if Prince Cheng doesn't die, he'll be bedridden for a month.
Now he's lying there unable to even call for help.
Chu Yue's eyes were red as she cautiously looked at the Crown Prince.
The Crown Prince carried the person into the palace and placed them on the couch. As he was about to stand up, Chu Yue did not let go and held him tightly.
"Release him," the crown prince said in a deep voice.
Chu Yue shook her head, tears streaming down her face: "Your Highness... I didn't provoke him, please don't be angry, okay?"
“I didn’t let him touch me, really.”
The Crown Prince naturally knew that what she said was true. When he saw it, Consort Chu was still avoiding the King's touch.
"Why are you running around like this?" The Crown Prince sat down, and Chu Yue nestled into his arms.
"I... accidentally wet my dress at the banquet. Her Majesty the Empress sent someone to bring me here to change. When I left..."
"I just ran into Prince Cheng. I really didn't mean to wander off, Your Highness..."
Chu Yue explained softly, hugging him even tighter, afraid that he would get angry and leave her.
The Crown Prince was only angry with Prince Cheng and did not blame the person in his arms. She was usually very careful in the Eastern Palace and had only bumped into Prince Cheng by accident today.
Consort Chen and her son were already arrogant enough. They took advantage of his injury to bully his mother, and now they're bullying his woman.
Those two kicks were relatively light.
"Don't run around like that next time. Be careful everywhere in the palace." The Crown Prince felt her trembling and felt a surge of pity. He gently put his arm around her.
"I will never run around again, Your Highness, I am so scared." Chu Yue sobbed, her tears wetting the Crown Prince's robes.
"I will avenge you, don't cry." Chu Liangdi's aggrieved sobs made him feel suffocated.
His woman being bullied undoubtedly demonstrates his incompetence.
The Crown Prince was furious. He easily released Chu Yue, took a few steps outside, and then kicked her twice more, one of which landed squarely on King Cheng's vital spot.
That despicable thing! Even with the injuries sustained during the hunt, the Crown Prince acted ruthlessly. Although there was no evidence, he knew perfectly well that Prince Cheng could not escape suspicion!
King Cheng let out a wail, and now he was barely breathing, lying there sprawled out, twitching every now and then.
