On Our Wedding Night, I Discovered the Crown Prince’s Hidden Illness -
Chapter 307 Life Entrusted to Her
Chapter 307: Chapter 307 Life Entrusted to Her
He had never felt such defeat since becoming the Crown Prince at the age of seven.
Even when poisoned and facing death, he had never felt as useless as he did now.
Mo Chen said, "When the Princely Heir returned, he repeatedly instructed that the clues obtained today must not be shared with Princess Zhenbei. The Princess has always seen the Commandery Princess Beilan as Princess Mian’er, and her mental state should not be overburdened with matters concerning Princess Mian’er."
Ye Yiheng nodded lightly, "Understood."
The caravan continued on its way.
Leng Yu Yan directly entered Yun Family’s horse carriage.
Firstly, she could replace her sister Huahua in caring for their mother; secondly, she pretended to ignore the gaze behind her that seemed ready to devour her.
Leng Yu Yan couldn’t understand what had gone wrong between herself and that person, always feeling as if an icy wall had been erected between them.
Tomorrow was her fourth episode of withdrawing from Extreme Joy Powder. Last time, she had behaved frivolously towards him, and she could not afford to do so this time.
As Leng Yu Yan nestled in Yun Family’s arms, she thought about how to get through tomorrow.
--
The next day was October 14, a full fifteen days since her last withdrawal from the Extreme Joy Powder.
Ye Yiheng watched Leng Yu Yan’s carriage from the window of his horse carriage, from morning till noon, and then through dinner time. She did not leave the horse carriage. Not once did the carriage window open, nor even a lift of the curtain was seen.
Meanwhile, Miao Zhu sat next to Xiaoshan throughout, both driving the carriage, clearly indicating that only Leng Yu Yan was within.
She skipped lunch, and even when Yun Family sent someone to call her for dinner, Miao Zhu stopped them.
"The Commandery Princess is in a bad mood and will not dine."
Li Yuyue assumed Leng Yu Yan was distressed and upset over issues related to Mian’er, so he assigned a few men to guard near the horse carriage while the rest of the people settled in the hostel.
Ye Yiheng knew deeply how she suffered from the Extreme Joy Powder withdrawals. He paced towards the horse carriage but was stopped by Xiaoshan and Miao Zhu.
Holding food bowls, they sat in front of the carriage, appearing as though no one was allowed near.
Swallowing her food, Miao Zhu said, "Your Highness, my master has decreed that she shall not meet anyone today, please forgive her!"
Xiaoshan added, "The Commandery Princess had me install a lock inside the carriage, and she has locked herself in."
Ye Yiheng stood fixedly staring at the carriage, until Ling Lang came to call him for supper, and then he slowly walked away.
Even after he had finished dinner, there was still no sign of Leng Yu Yan leaving the horse carriage, and his heart ached dully.
She would rather endure intensely than seek his help.
Late at night, the sound of unlocking came from within the carriage.
The horse carriage was parked in the open space of the hostel, directly facing the room chosen by the Crown Prince.
Ye Yiheng’s ears twitched and he commanded Song Guo to help him downstairs.
However, Leng Yu Yan had unlocked the door but couldn’t leave the carriage, collapsing weakly to one side.
Xiaoshan and Miao Zhu, seeing this, were startled.
The Commandery Princess’s lips were bloodied, both crusted and fresh.
They hurried forward, each grabbing an arm, only to find her completely drenched in sweat, strands of hair sticking to her cheeks, appearing utterly depleted.
This scene was witnessed by the rapidly approaching Ye Yiheng.
He pushed Song Guo’s arm away, strode forward, and lifted her horizontally in his arms.
Li Yuyue’s trusted aide standing guard by the carriage quickly stepped forward, one of them saying, "Your Highness, the Heir has ordered that you must not approach the Commandery Princess!"
Ye Yiheng completely ignored him and carried Leng Yu Yan straight to his room.
Palace guards tried to intervene but were held back by Song Guo and Mo Chen.
Song Guo scoffed with a laugh, "Which is greater, the Crown Prince’s decree, or the Princely Heir’s decree? And your Heir has ordered?"
The aides hung their heads in contemplation, realizing the logic in the Crown Prince’s Chamberlain’s words.
Then recalling their own Heir’s instructions, the guards immediately reported to Li Yuyue.
Ye Yiheng had already carried her into his room.
Leng Yu Yan was groggy, realizing she was in someone’s arms, she suddenly opened her eyes to see that she was indeed in Ye Yiheng’s embrace and struggled, "Put me down."
Ye Yiheng’s voice was deep, "Would you rather endure it than have me help you?"
Leng Yu Yan turned her face away, not looking at him, "Your Highness, how could you help?"
She was actually upset, as he had ignored her all this time. Now, when the day the Extreme Joy Powder took effect, he pretended to care.
She didn’t need such cheap concern!
Hearing this, Ye Yiheng smirked coldly, yes, how could he help?
A kiss from her, and her cold disease would flare up fiercely.
If he truly helped her, his life would probably be over.
Ye Yiheng set his face and put her onto the bed, "You need to bathe and rest."
"Don’t manage me!" Leng Yu Yan had no idea this room was his, she pointed at the door, "Please leave, Your Highness!"
Ye Yiheng’s handsome eyebrows furrowed tightly, he reached out and pinched her delicate chin, "Next time, do not bite your lip!"
Pinching her chin moved her lips, pulling at the wound, the pain caused mist to rise in her eyes.
The mist gathered more and more, and soon turned into tears.
Seeing her like this, Ye Yiheng’s heart sank abruptly, he hastily withdrew his hand and clenched his fist, his gaze dark as he said, "Next time, I will help you solve it."
She was enduring such discomfort, and there were still two more times she’d have to endure. If she continued, what would become of her lips?
He would solve it for her, let the cold disease act as it wanted...
He would leave his life in her hands!
Hearing this, Leng Yu Yan’s eyelashes trembled, and she randomly grabbed a pillow and threw it at him, "Madman, get out!"
How was he going to solve it for her?
Would he use tools to abuse her?
Ye Yiheng did not dodge, allowing her to hit him with the pillow.
At that moment, Li Yuyue burst through the door, swinging a punch at Ye Yiheng’s face.
Ye Yiheng’s eyebrows did not move; he raised his hand to block.
Li Yuyue then confirmed that the Crown Prince was skilled, so he struck straight at his face with a chopping hand.
Ye Yiheng’s body leaned back, using instant teleportation to dodge his killing move.
"Stop fighting!" Leng Yu Yan pressed her chest, saying painfully, "Big brother, you’re no match for His Highness, stop fighting!"
Li Yuyue was shocked at how skilled the Crown Prince was, so he stopped, clenching his molars harshly and asked fiercely, "Your Highness, why did you make my sister cry?"
Ye Yiheng stood silently, one hand behind his back.
Leng Yu Yan sighed deeply, her eyes brimming with tears, "Big brother, it wasn’t His Highness who made me cry."
Hearing this, Li Yuyue then focused his gaze entirely on his sister, who had red eyes, a bloodied mouth from the broken lips, and her face, covered with strands of hair sticking to her sweaty cheeks.
"What on earth happened? Why did you bite your lips again?"
Hearing this "again," Leng Yu Yan knew she couldn’t hide any longer and quietly spoke about being drugged with Extreme Joy Powder...
She omitted the parts about detoxifying in the Eastern Palace.
"It was all caused by Ye Zhenxian who put Extreme Joy Powder in my tea, and it has happened four times already. Big brother, you must keep this from our family, I am afraid they’d worry. As for Ye Zhenxian, His Highness has already avenged me."
Li Yuyue’s eyes reddened fiercely, and he glowered, saying, "Ye Zhenxian, that bastard!"
Not killing him would not quench the hatred in his heart!
Then, Li Yuyue looked towards the Crown Prince, recalling that half a month ago when he was holding her, that meant the Crown Prince indeed couldn’t manage.
He couldn’t detoxify his sister.
Li Yuyue’s heart was conflicted. Although he disagreed with his sister being with the Crown Prince...
It seemed she liked the Crown Prince, yet he could only coax her to sleep and was incapable of actually helping her detoxify from Extreme Joy Powder.
