Chapter 1027 Come to the door
"Otherwise what? What else do you want to do?" King Xiao retorted.
"No, no." Yun Lengyu shook her head. "I just felt that I might not be a good choice for the prince. I did have that thought before, but I also know my own limitations."
I don't understand what made the prince suddenly change his mind.
King Xiao was silent for a moment, then said, "Perhaps... you saved me, so I intend to repay you with my body?"
Yun Lengyu: "???"
"If you are willing, I will have my steward prepare for the betrothal."
"If you are unwilling, there is no need to force yourself. I will give you time to consider," said King Xiao.
Seeing that Prince Xiao was about to leave, Yun Lengyu quickly said, "No need to think about it, I'm willing!"
King Xiao stopped in his tracks and turned to look at her.
"Your Highness, although I come from a poor family and am not valued by my parents, I am proficient in all the skills I have learned since childhood, such as playing the zither, chess, calligraphy and painting, managing the household, and reading accounts."
"If Your Highness ever needs anything from me in the future, I will be willing to learn and will certainly not let Your Highness down!"
Yun Lengyu looked serious; she was confident she could do everything well.
Xiao Wang's lips curled up slightly, and a smile flashed in his eyes.
"You don't need to be nervous. I'm marrying you as a wife, not as a helper."
The man's voice softened, causing Yun Lengyu's tense body to relax slightly...
This answer was completely unexpected, yet it ignited a glimmer of hope in her heart.
It seems she stumbled upon the perfect place by sheer luck!
……
Yun Mansion.
"Father, Mother, and Sister are living in the Xiao Prince's Mansion without any official status. I'm afraid it won't sound good if word gets out?"
Yun Yiyu thought about how Yun Lengyu had been staying at the Xiao Prince's residence since last night, and now her reputation had spread throughout the capital. People were saying that she might become the next Princess Xiao, which made her restless and unable to eat or sleep.
What is Yun Lengyu anyway?
For so many years, they've been trampled underfoot by her, and now they actually want to take this opportunity to climb over her head? She absolutely won't allow it!
Father Yun slammed his hand on the table. “This girl is so insensible! She’s going to ruin the reputation of our entire Yun family!”
Living in the Xiao Prince's mansion without any official status or title—what kind of nonsense is this?
"Father, we must keep a close eye on Leng Yu, otherwise her writing might even tarnish my younger sister's reputation."
"At that time, everyone will think that our family has poor discipline and that no one will be willing to marry a girl from our family," Yunhe said.
Yunmu frowned. "The Prince hasn't sent anyone to deliver a message. Why don't we go to Prince Xiao's residence and bring the person back directly?"
"When the time comes, as long as we act more serious in front of outsiders, everyone will naturally know about the problems with the Yun family's family traditions."
After thinking about it, Yun's father realized that Leng Yu had never been a popular girl, and even if she went to the Xiao Prince's Mansion, she would definitely not be liked by anyone.
That brat! She doesn't care about the family at all!
"Let's go, we'll go to Prince Xiao's residence now!"
……
Song Ruozhen and Chu Junting learned today, while paying their respects to the Empress, that Prince Xiao was going to marry a girl from the Yun family.
"Today, Consort Liu mentioned this matter to me, saying that the girl that Prince Xiao had taken a liking to was probably this one."
However, this young lady doesn't seem to be very favored in the Yun family; she's currently injured and recuperating at the Xiao Prince's residence.
The Empress looked at Song Ruozhen as she spoke, "When Consort Liu came today, she brought a valuable gift, saying that she wanted to ask you to help her calculate whether Miss Leng and Prince Xiao's horoscopes are compatible."
Song Ruozhen was slightly taken aback. "The Imperial Concubine Liu asked me to help calculate her birth chart?"
She said she didn't believe any of the predictions from those other masters before, but now she only believes in you, and hopes you can give her a reading.
The Empress couldn't help but chuckle. She was also surprised when she heard Consort Liu's words, but after thinking about it again, she felt it was normal.
After all, everyone knows about his daughter-in-law's abilities these days.
"Here, I've even left my birth date and time. If it's convenient for you, I can do a calculation."
The nanny beside the Empress quickly handed over the note.
Song Ruozhen smiled slightly, "Let me do the math."
When Song Ruozhen was matching the birth dates and times, she realized that the two of them were indeed a perfect match and were truly a good couple!
"Mother, please reassure Consort Liu. Their horoscopes are very compatible; they are an excellent match."
Upon hearing this, the Empress smiled and said, "That's good. Consort Liu will surely be happy to know."
After leaving the palace, Song Ruozhen and Chu Junting went to Prince Xiao's residence.
However, upon arriving at the gate of Prince Xiao's residence, they saw the entire Yun family there.
"Why did such a large group of people suddenly appear at the Yun family's residence?"
"I heard that the third young lady of the Yun family is living in the Xiao Prince's mansion. I wonder if she will become the Xiao Prince's consort. But why are so many people from the Yun family here all of a sudden?"
"I don't know. Judging from this situation, it doesn't seem like a good thing. It looks more like they've come to interrogate us."
Feeling the gazes around them, the Yun family members felt even more certain that they had made the right decision to come!
"That girl really has no sense of propriety. We've raised her for so many years, and this is the only thing we've raised that has no manners!"
Yun's father looked displeased, clearly extremely dissatisfied with his daughter, and spoke up in front of everyone.
"A rebellious daughter, truly a rebellious daughter!"
Yun Yiyu's face showed the same worry as always. She explained to the people around her, "We heard that our sister was not feeling well, so we came here today to pick her up and take her back to the mansion."
The prince is kind-hearted, and our entire Yun family is deeply grateful for this kindness.
The group looked at each other in bewilderment. It seemed that they had misunderstood before; Prince Xiao had no intention of marrying Yun Lengyu.
"Judging from the Yun family's angry expressions, could it be that Yun Lengyu, like Bu Qingyao, is resorting to any means necessary to become a princess and is shamelessly clinging to the Xiao Prince's residence, refusing to leave?"
"No wonder the Yun family is so anxious; I'm afraid anyone would be anxious in their place."
Meanwhile, Yun Lengyu heard that the Yun family had arrived but had not come in, staying outside instead, and knew in her heart what had happened.
She had seen this kind of trick the Yun family played many times over the years.
It seems that only by reprimanding her can their family demonstrate their noble character, and now this drama has spread to the Xiao Prince's Mansion!
However, she is different now than before. She has found a powerful backer, a backer that the Yun family cannot shake!
As Yun Lengyu walked out, she was immediately met with a scolding from her mother.
"You brat, you've really gone too far! You have a home too, why are you staying at Prince Xiao's mansion and refusing to leave!"
Yun's father's face turned ashen. "Is this how I've taught you all these years? You unfilial daughter, kneel down right now!"
“Sister, what you’re doing is really inconsiderate!” Yunhe said as well.
Only Yun Yiyu looked distressed and walked to her side to advise her, "Sister, just apologize to Father and Mother. They are all stubborn but soft-hearted."
"As long as you admit your mistake and are sincere, His Highness Prince Xiao will be willing to forgive you, and your parents truly love you."
