Chapter 306: 2, No Negotiating
"Yun Yuxi, don't be so arrogant! If Yue'er hadn't insisted on coming, how could I condescend to beg a woman like you, humph!"
Before he finished speaking, the Third Prince groaned, and was hit hard on the chest. In an instant, he felt a flash before his eyes, and he didn't see clearly how Yun Yuxi attacked. When he came to his senses, a touch of bright red had already seeped out from the corner of his mouth.
Yun Yuxi's face was as gloomy as water, her beautiful eyes wide open, and she said sternly: "If you don't show respect to me again next time, get out of this palace immediately! You are not allowed to act wildly and shout here! Your Majesty, let's go." After that, she pretended to push Yan Wuque beside her and was about to turn around and leave.
The Third Prince was so angry that his eyes turned red, his chest rose and fell sharply, and he roared in anger: "Uncle, are you just going to sit there and do nothing? She actually dared to beat me in public. This is a heinous act! This is a serious crime that violates the law. It's simply too much!"
Qi Yue, who was standing aside, had a look of panic on her face, and was frantically trying to support the staggering Third Prince, looking so pitiful and helpless.
Yan Wuque rolled his eyes and sneered, "Humph, in my family, the princess has the final say. Besides, it was you who didn't know the etiquette and committed the crime of disobeying your superiors. Don't forget that she is the royal aunt and has long been included in the royal family.
Not only did you speak wildly and roar wantonly, you even dared to call the princess by her name, which was really inappropriate. When I enter the palace later, I will report this matter to my brother and ask him, is it true that the royal heirs no longer need to respect etiquette, morality, integrity and shame? "
"Uncle, how can you be so partial to that woman? I am your nephew! Are you going to just watch me being bullied by her?" The Third Prince's face was filled with grievance and anger, and his voice unconsciously rose eight octaves, trying to let everyone present hear his dissatisfaction and defense.
However, facing the questioning of the Third Prince, Yun Yuxi seemed unusually calm and composed. She raised the corners of her mouth slightly, revealing a playful smile, and asked back:
"Oh? Who bullied you here? Where? Who saw it? Did the Third Prince's wife see it? Did the prince see it? Did anyone see it?" As she spoke, she actually stopped walking and instead found a place to sit down leisurely. She picked up a cup of fragrant tea and sipped it as if no one was around.
The Third Prince was so angry that he was fuming. He had never expected that Yun Yuxi would be such an unreasonable scoundrel.
But on second thought, today's situation was all my own fault. It was me who took the initiative to bring Qi Yue here to beg Yun Yuxi for help.
Thinking of this, although he was extremely angry, in order to achieve the purpose of this trip, the Third Prince finally suppressed his anger and chose to be patient.
Seeing that the Third Prince stopped talking, Yun Yuxi's smile deepened a little, and then he said slowly:
"Since you are here, please take a seat with me, the Third Prince's wife. Now, tell me, what is the purpose of your visit today? Should the Third Prince explain it, or should you tell me one by one? I have a lot of palace affairs to deal with, and time is really precious!"
After she finished speaking, she still had a smile on her face, and her eyes moved back and forth between the Third Prince and his wife, as if waiting for them to give a satisfactory answer.
The Third Prince and his wife looked at each other. The Third Prince saw the desire in Qi Yue's eyes, so he took a deep breath and spoke slowly.
"Aunt Royal, I was wrong. I shouldn't have lost my temper with you just now. Yue'er and I have been waiting for a long time, but we didn't see the Emperor's uncle and you. I can't help but feel a little angry. Please forgive me, aunt Royal. I will ask Yue'er to arrange some gifts for you tomorrow as an apology, okay? Please don't hold it against me, okay?" The third prince had a very good attitude and was very humble, for fear of angering Yun Yuxi again.
"Oh, we are all family, why bother with these polite words? Your uncle often says that you are a good child, how can I argue with you? If you have anything to say, just tell me directly. As for gifts, I am not picky," Yun Yuxi said with a wry smile.
"Uncle, aunt, Yue'er had a miscarriage and injured her body. The doctor outside said that she might never be able to have children again. This is all my fault. I hope that aunt can have mercy on Yue'er and see if she can recover her fertility. Yue'er cries every day, and your nephew feels so sorry for her." After saying this, the third prince pretended to wipe the non-existent tears from the corners of his eyes.
"In that case, Yu'er, you can help her. It's really not good for the royal family to be without an heir. Minghao has suffered a lot since he was young, and I can't bear it." Yan Wuque added fuel to the fire and gave Yun Yuxi a look that said you understand.
"That's what the prince said, isn't it? In that case, Third Prince's wife, come with me. It's not too late for me to draw a conclusion after taking a look. We need to check to know whether it can be cured." After saying that, Yun Yuxi stood up, and Qi Yue followed closely behind her.
In the flower hall, only the Third Prince and Yan Wuque were left. The Third Prince felt a little nervous, but then he thought that this was a rare opportunity to be alone with Yan Wuque, so he couldn't help but make plans.
He hurriedly called the housekeeper, brought the chessboard, and invited Yan Wuque to play a game. As the game started, the Third Prince was fully focused, making every move carefully considered. However, despite such careful planning, he still lost the game in the end, which made him a little discouraged.
At this time, Yan Wuque's face was stern, and he slowly said: "People who are eager for quick success and instant benefits will inevitably fail. Although you have planned every step carefully and seem to be meticulous, you have actually neglected one thing while focusing on another, and have not taken the overall situation into consideration, so the end result is still inevitable failure. Do you understand the reason?"
The Third Prince was slightly stunned at first, and after a moment's hesitation, he suddenly understood and realized. He realized that Yan Wuque's words were not just criticism, but a reminder to him in secret. So he quickly stood up, saluted, and thanked him sincerely.
At the same time, in another room, Yun Yuxi was carefully checking Qi Yue's physical condition. She said softly, "Qi Yue, although your body is seriously damaged, you still have a chance to recover. As for fertility, if you can take good care of yourself, I will personally treat you. I believe there won't be too many problems with having children."
Hearing this, Qi Yue instantly became excited, her eyes quickly turned red, and she asked anxiously with a slightly trembling voice: "Are you serious? In other words, I still have hope of becoming a mother, right?"
"Well! You have to keep a good mood, otherwise it will be difficult to get pregnant even if you take good care of your body. The lochia residue in your body has not been completely discharged, did you know? Do you often feel uncomfortable? And your menstrual period lasts for a long time and cannot be cleaned up?" Yun Yuxi asked again.
Qi Yue blushed and nodded. Her heart was full of hope. She tidied her clothes and followed Yun Yuxi back to the flower hall.
"Yue'er, how is it? Can it be cured?" The third prince asked anxiously when he saw Qi Yue returning.
Qi Yue did not hide anything and told the third prince everything about her physical condition, looking at the third prince with expectant eyes.
The third prince was also heartbroken. He really loved Qi Yue and wanted to have a child of his own. If Qi Yue could have a child, he could also give an explanation to the Qi family and the Luo Mansion.
"Aunt Royal, if Yue'er can be cured, feel free to mention any conditions. I am willing to give everything I have to cure Yue'er." The Third Prince seemed to have made up his mind. He held Qi Yue's hand tightly, and the two of them knelt on the ground with their hands clasped together, speaking earnestly.
"If you want me to help, it's not impossible. I have only one hobby, which is to make money. Here's the price: 200,000 taels of silver. No bargaining. If it weren't for Qi Yue, as we're both women, 300,000 would be a must. No one else can cure this disease except me," Yun Yuxi said with her mouth wide open.
When the Third Prince heard the number of two hundred thousand, he felt uneasy, but when he saw Qi Yue's eyes and thought of the Luo Mansion, he gritted his teeth and said, "Then I'll trouble the Imperial Aunt. Two hundred thousand is two hundred thousand. Nothing is more important than Yue'er's health."
Qi Yue was deeply moved. She didn't expect that the Third Prince would agree. Yun Yuxi was also surprised. She thought that the Third Prince would be furious, but she didn't expect it to be so smooth.
Yun Yuxi said happily, "The housekeeper has prepared the food, you can eat together, and I will send someone to the mansion to get the medicine tomorrow."
