On Our Wedding Night, I Discovered the Crown Prince's Hidden Illness-Chapter 84 - The Crown Prince’s Mouth
Chapter 84: Chapter 84 The Crown Prince’s Mouth
“Crown Princess Consort is jealous?”
His voice was ice-cold, carrying a trace of mesmerizing vagueness.
“I…”
Absolutely not!
Before Leng Yu Yan could speak, she heard Fan Minmin’s delicate voice from outside the carriage: “Cousin, you’re back. Minmin made Cousin’s favorite dishes today. Would Cousin care to try them?”
Ye Yiheng got off the horse carriage, humming lightly with a single word, “Hm.”
...
Fan Minmin was overjoyed, “Then Minmin will order someone to get ready.”
Leng Yu Yan quietly got off the carriage, taking advantage of their conversation to walk quietly toward the Eastern Palace.
Unexpectedly, he called out to her, “Didn’t the Crown Princess Consort say that to thank me, she would feed me at dinner?”
Leng Yu Yan paused mid-step, the corners of her mouth twitching beneath her veil as she cursed softly, “The mouth of the Crown Prince, a lying ghost!”
Though she spoke extremely softly, her words still reached Ye Yiheng’s ears.
He hooked his lips, “I’m blind, and I might get food into my nose.”
Hearing this suddenly, Leng Yu Yan turned to look at Fan Minmin.
What kind of person is this?
I teach her, but she turns around to frame me instead!
And, could this blind man be the reincarnation of a lotus root?
No wonder he is blind, because his whole body is full of tricks!
Leng Yu Yan’s beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, her voice clear, “Does Your Highness prefer that I feed him rather than letting Lady Cousin do so?”
Fan Minmin heard this and stamped her foot: “Cousin, Minmin can feed Cousin.”
“No need for Minmin to trouble herself. Just command someone to arrange the meal; the Crown Princess Consort’s company is sufficient for me.”
Ye Yiheng’s voice was very faint, carrying an air of undeniable command.
Hearing this, Fan Minmin bit her lip, fearing that she would cry in front of the Leng Family’s ugly girl. But the Cousin was the Crown Prince, and his royal command could not be disobeyed. She could only pinch her palm and walk back quickly to order the meal to be served.
Fan Minmin watched as the palace maid and eunuch arranged the food, then turning her head, she saw her own cousin leaning on the hand of the Leng Family’s ugly girl, entering slowly.
“Your Highness, please take a seat!” Leng Yu Yan gently and quietly helped Ye Yiheng to the main seat, then scooped up a spoonful of soup, gently blew on it, and brought it to his lips.
Seeing this, Fan Minmin could no longer hold back. She curtseyed and left with tears she struggled to contain.
Once outside, her tears fell like a breached dam, streaming down ceaselessly.
Leng Yu Yan put the bowl and spoon down on the table: “Your Highness can eat by himself!”
Ye Yiheng’s handsome eyebrows rose, “Why?”
“The meal made by Your Highness’s cousin, I dare not indulge,” Leng Yu Yan glanced at the figure of Fan Minmin running away outside and curtseyed to the individual, “I take my leave.”
Ye Yiheng said lightly, “Remember what I told you on the horse carriage.”
Leng Yu Yan paused in her steps and then hurried out.
His bedroom, she truly couldn’t stay for a moment longer!
Seeing her depart, Ye Yiheng told Song Guo, “Throw out all the food on the table.”
Song Guo immediately acknowledged.

The master hadn’t taken a bite of Lady Cousin’s cooking, and even the spoonful of soup that Miss Lai had fed him earlier, he hadn’t sipped.
What was on the master’s mind, truly?

The next day.
Princess Heng Yuan, Ye Yuan, and Marquis Jiangyang Ji Liancheng entered the palace.
The Emperor listened to their intentions and asked with a smile, “A royal marriage is a joyous matter, but just who exactly is Li Yu?”
Last time, he asked Ji Qingyu, but that boy insisted he wasn’t clear about it either.
Today, he actually persuaded his parents to come and ask for a marriage to be granted.
But they were stumped by a single question.
Ye Yuan pondered and said, “Emperor brother, it’s rare for Qingyu to take a girl to heart, please just agree to it.”
Ji Liancheng folded his hands in agreement, “Emperor, Qingyu is usually nonchalant, but ever since he met that girl, he has become much more restrained. Therefore, I believe that girl is extremely suitable for our Qingyu!”
“With you praising her like that, I actually want to meet this Miss Li Yu,” the Emperor laughed heartily, “Let Qingyu bring her, I’ll take a look, if she’s suitable, the marriage will be granted, but… ”
He deliberately didn’t continue, radiating his authority.
Ye Yuan quickly asked, “Emperor brother, but what?”
The Emperor pondered, “But whether she will be the official wife or a concubine needs to be discussed.”
It was pointless to say more; the Eldest Princess couple returned to Marquis Jiangyang Mansion.
At this moment, Ji Qingyu was still recuperating from his injuries. Hearing that his parents had returned, he hurriedly got out of bed and had people help him to his parents.
“Father, mother, how did it go? Did Uncle Emperor agree?”
Ji Liancheng seated himself in the main seat, picked up a cup of tea for a sip, and then slowly said, “The Emperor wants you to bring Miss Li Yu to the palace to see him. The Emperor wishes to see her himself; if she’s suitable, he will grant her as either your official wife or a concubine.”
Upon hearing this, Ji Qingyu felt a chill in his heart.
Ye Yuan spoke soothingly, “My son, today your aunt carefully listened to your Uncle Emperor’s hidden meaning, and he is indeed intending to use your marriage to rope in the noble families.”
Hearing this, Ji Qingyu felt even colder, both on the surface and within.
Though supported by servants, his whole body swayed, and in the next moment, he collapsed to the ground.
Ye Yuan cried out in alarm, “My son!”
Ji Liancheng, quick-eyed and nimble, set down the teacup and hurriedly helped Ji Qingyu up.
The couple patted Ji Qingyu’s face.
It really was painfully done, and he slowly opened his eyes, “Father, mother, I want to see Li Yu.”
Ye Yuan nodded repeatedly, “Alright, alright, alright, your mother will order someone to wait at your restaurant and teahouse, and if Miss Li Yu appears, they will immediately bring her to our home.”
“Hmm, thank you, mother!” After saying a word, Ji Qingyu leaned weakly to one side again.
Thus, Ye Yuan and Ji Liancheng ended up calling for the house doctor, as well as sending people to find Li Yu.
When alone, Ji Qingyu barely lifted his eyelids.
Meeting the Emperor was indeed tricky.
Once he met her, the Emperor would know Li Yu was Leng Yu Yan, the future Crown Princess Consort, and that she was Ye Yiheng’s.
What would there be left for him then?
In such a case, he must consult with her first, respecting her opinion is the priority.
But for now, Ye Yiheng, that blind man, must have played tricks. Her comings and goings in the Eastern Palace were likely monitored.
—
That afternoon.
Ye Yiheng was ordered to enter the palace.
The Emperor, upon seeing him, let someone arrange a seat and then said, “Ah Heng, today your Imperial Aunt and Uncle came to me, requesting a marriage for Qingyu.”
Hearing this, Ye Yiheng asked without any outward change in expression, “Has Father Emperor agreed? May I know which family’s daughter it is?”
“They spoke of a Miss Li Yu, I did not agree on the spot.”
Ye Yiheng said expressionlessly, “I’ve heard of this Miss Li Yu, she is not suitable for Ji Qingyu.”
“Oh? Why not suitable?” The Emperor raised an eyebrow, sitting up straighter, seemingly quite interested to hear more.
“Why she is not suitable, I cannot say, I ask for Father Emperor’s forgiveness,” Ye Yiheng’s voice was very light, “Imperial Aunt has been hurt because of me, and I have always been guilty about it, so I think Father Emperor should choose a girl from a family with a strong background for Ji Qingyu.”
Hearing this, the Emperor nodded approvingly, “The Crown Prince is kind and filial! If your Imperial Aunt knew of your concerns, she would be very pleased!”
“Father Emperor flatters me!” Ye Yiheng bowed his head slightly, “I have been taken care of by Imperial Aunt since I was young. If there ever comes a day when I am gone, and if Ji Qingyu could uphold his responsibilities, then Imperial Aunt’s life can still progress smoothly and happily.”
