âYes, Iâve already regained my memories. If Grandfather doesnât believe me, you can ask me questions,â Yu Yunxi said calmly.
âItâs not that I donât believe you, but⦠back then, your grandmother clearly said that thereâs no way. The entire Xiao family didnât have a way to break the amnesia curse,â Chu Ruishi muttered to himself.
Yu Yunxi said firmly, âEverything depends on yourself. Thereâs nothing absolute in this world.â
Upon hearing this, Chu Ruishi seemed to have thought of something. He smiled bitterly and said, âThatâs right. Everything depends on yourself. All these years, I, your grandmother, and everyone in the Xiao family failed to understand this. If we had understood this earlier and found a way to break the curse, perhaps your grandmother and mother wouldnât have died.â
Chu Ruishiâs expression became even more pained and guilty.
Yu Yunxi walked over and supported Chu Ruishi as she said helplessly, âIn fact,
I donât know why I regained my memories as wellâ¦â
Chu Ruishi shook his head and said with a smile, âItâs fine. I just need to know that you were able to break the curse. If the Xiao family sends more people, Iâll tell them about this. Itâs because they always thought that the curse couldnât be broken so many people died tragically. I want to prove to them that theyâre wrong!â
Chu Ruishi took a deep breath to calm down before he looked at Feng Yili. In just an instant, his gentle gaze turned piercing as he asked, âYou orchestrated the matter with the Mu family, didnât you?â
âYes, I did,â Feng Yili replied honestly and nodded.
Chu Ruishi slapped the table next to him and scolded, âHow dare you!â
âEmperor Emeritus, I donât think I did anything wrong. The Mu family isnât innocent in the matter regarding the King of Youshanâs Residence. Of course, the real culprit who murdered Li Chengâan is still safe and sound,â Feng Yili said. His tone turned sarcastic nearing the end of his words.
âYou, you know that Mu Zhongwei acted on behalf ofâ¦â
âI know that Mu Zhongvvei acted on behalf of the Emperor. The Emperor was the one who wanted Li Chengâan to die. However, Emperor Emeritus, donât worry. I have no intention of taking the Emperorâs life,â Feng Yili said coldly before he continued to think to himself, âAt least not for now.â
âGrandfather, Feng Yili also knows that we canât force the Emperor to admit his mistakes. Moreover, you were also protecting the Emperor earlier, werenât you?â Yu Yunxi said.
Chu Ruishi pursed his lips, and his expression was solemn. No matter what,
Chu Zai was his son and the ruler of Xichu. It was impossible for him to help an outsider deal with Chu Zai even if Chu Zai once forced the King of Youshan into a desperate situation.
Chu Ruishi said, looking extremely tired, âThe only thing I can do for the King of Youshanâs Residence is to let Mu Zhongwei die and atone for his sins.â
Yu Yunxi felt very depressed when she saw the state Chu Ruishi was in. She understood that he had many things to consider, and more often than not, he had no choice.
Chu Ruishi looked at Feng Yili again and asked coldly, âSo you were the one who tried to assassinate the Emperor tonight and framed the Seventh Prince and Changlin? Not only that, but you also injured yourself?â
Unsurprisingly, Feng Yili nodded again.
Chu Ruishi sneered. Then, he said through gritted teeth, âNo wonder. Although the Emperor of Tianxia is muddle-headed, Tianxia has not fallen. After all, it has such an extraordinary Prince Regent. You planned so meticulously just to reveal your identity and expose the truth. You even bet on your life. I really have to look at you in a new light.â
Despite his sarcastic tone, it could still be seen that Chu Ruishi admired Feng Yili.
âWhy isnât such a talented kid part of Xichuâs imperial family? Those useless people raised by the Emperor are getting worse and worse. Sooner or later, theyâll destroy Xichuâ¦
At this moment, Yu Yunxi asked nervously, âGrandfather, now that you know what Feng Yili has done, will you⦠expose him?â
Although Feng Yili was very powerful and capable, they were still in Chu Zaiâs territory after all. She was afraid that Feng Yili would come to harm.
Chu Ruishi scoffed and looked at Yu Yunxi with dissatisfaction as he said, âIf I really wanted to expose him, I wouldâve done it earlier. Why would I wait until now to question him?â
âLook at her siding with an outsiderâ¦â
Chu Ruishi could not help but feel jealous seeing how concerned Yu Yunxi was about Feng Yili.
After hearing Chu Ruishiâs words, Yu Yunxi smiled and said, âGrandfather, youâre indeed a righteous person!â
Chu Ruishi pursed his lips, looking unhappy.
âDoes she think I donât know that sheâs praising me because of Feng Yili?â However, the corners of Chu Ruishiâs lips could not help but curl up.
âForget it. Changning only has one daughter. If I donât dote on her, who else can I dote on?â
Chu Ruishi glanced at Feng Yili and said nonchalantly, âAlright, get up. If you get injured again, wonât my Eldest Princess be angry with me?ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Seeing that the matters had been resolved, Li Xu was extremely happy. He quickly ran over and helped Feng Yili up, saying, âPrince Regent, let me help you.â
Feng Yili was very skilled. He quickly said, âThank you, Grandfather.â
Chu Ruishi let Yu Yunxi help him to sit down before he said, âChanglin doesnât know her limits, and Old Seventh and Consort Mu are ambitious. If I donât teach them a lesson, theyâll make a huge mistake sooner or later. Hence, I wonât interfere in this matter. You can do what you want, but you cannot harm
Xichu. â
Chu Ruishi had already made a huge concession with this.
Yu Yunxi sighed in relief. At this rate, her grandfather should acknowledge Feng Yili and the little bun soon.
At this moment, there was a commotion near the window. With a loud thump, the window opened, and Luo Xiuran fell into the room with the little bun in his arms.
âAssassins!â
The secret guards in hiding appeared immediately, pointing their swords at Luo Xiuran and the little bun.
âDonât hurt them!â
Yu Yunxi quickly walked over and carried the little bun.
The little bun called out softly, looking very obedient, âMother.â
âHe isâ¦â
Chu Ruishi looked at the little bun.
The little bun was not intimidated. Before Yu Yunxi could introduce him, he called out obediently, âGreat-grandfather.â
Li Xuâs heart almost melted when he saw the cute and obedient little bun. However, he was also worried that Chu Ruishi would dislike the little bun because of Feng Yili. Hence, he quickly said, âEmperor Emeritus, donât you think the little prince looks like the Eldest Princess? In fact, if you look closely, his eyebrows and eyes are also similar to those of Princess Changning and Empress Emerita Xiao.â
âHeh, it seems like this old servant of mine is getting old, and his eyesight has gone bad. This little guyâs eyes are exactly like those of Feng Yili. Does he think Iâm blind and canât see?â
However, Chu Ruishi also knew that Li Xu only said those words because Li Xu was worried that he would make things difficult for the little bun..
