Su Mingyu's words were like a basin of cold water, instantly waking Su Yueyue up.
She had indeed been wallowing in self - pity these days. Even when the King of Yu finally found time to come and console her, she had ignored him. By doing so, she was clearly pushing the King of Yu away and forcing herself into a dead end.
Although she very much agreed with Su Mingyu's words in her heart, Su Yueyue still wore that aloof look on her face. "These seem to be my own affairs. Sister, you don't need to worry about me. Just take care of yourself."
Su Mingyu and Su Yueyue had been at odds for so long that Su Mingyu knew her quite well. So when she heard these words, she immediately understood what was going on. "Fine. I've said all I need to say. If you really don't cherish it, there's nothing I can do."
After saying that, Su Mingyu stood up. "Even so, I still have a piece of advice for you."
Looking down at Su Yueyue haughtily, Su Mingyu coughed lightly and said, "You should understand that Wu Yurou is a princess sent for a political marriage. Her life cannot be harmed in the slightest. Otherwise, not to mention the King of Yu, even the entire Liuyun Kingdom will be affected."
After saying that, Su Mingyu turned around and left, leaving Su Yueyue with boundless room for speculation.
Although Su Mingyu's words seemed to be advising her not to act recklessly, in essence, they were telling her that Wu Yurou must be safe. However, whether the child in her womb could be successfully delivered and whether it would be a boy after birth were all unknowns.
At the thought that she still had hope, Su Yueyue instantly perked up. "Nanny, prepare a basin of hot water for me to take a bath. And tell the kitchen to prepare a table of small dishes."
"Okay, okay, okay. I'll go right away." Seeing that Su Yueyue was finally in high spirits, the nanny grinned from ear to ear.
After walking out of Su Yueyue's courtyard, Su Mingyu had only taken a few steps when someone blocked her way.
Su Mingyu looked up at the tall man and blinked. "What? Can't I even sit for a while?"
"The King asks you to go back immediately after you come out of Lady Su's courtyard." The man was completely unyielding and looked extremely rigid.
Su Mingyu let out a long sigh. Now she understood why the King of Yu had sent such a person to watch over her. Such a person was simply unreasonable.
She stood there for a long time, but the person she was waiting for didn't show up. Helpless, Su Mingyu had no choice but to turn around and leave.
Just as she took two steps, she saw a gorgeous figure in front of her. Almost without thinking, Su Mingyu rushed forward and called out to her. "Wu Yurou!"
"Why are you here again? Why are you always haunting me?" Wu Yurou clearly didn't want to give her a good look.
Su Mingyu remained very calm. She shrugged and walked side by side with Wu Yurou. "Actually, I'm here to tell you something."
"Shut up. I don't want to listen to you." Wu Yurou didn't give her any face at all.
Of course, Su Mingyu wasn't angry at all. "I've received reliable information that Su Yueyue is planning to deal with you."
"You should know that she married the King of Yu with ulterior motives. But unexpectedly, you stole his heart. Fortunately, she got pregnant later, so she wasn't too sad. But she only gave birth to a daughter. So now, in order to keep her position, she has to go to war with you."
"Is that all you have to say?" Wu Yurou sneered. "I don't need you to tell me this. I've known it for a long time. After all, Su Yueyue is an ambitious woman. But I don't understand your motive for telling me this."
Wu Yurou turned around and looked at Su Mingyu. "You want to watch me and Su Yueyue fight like dogs and then reap the benefits, don't you?"
"Come on! I have no reason to sow discord between you two. I'm just telling you what I know." Su Mingyu looked innocent when she said this, as if she really knew nothing.
"Stop pretending. There's no need to do that in front of me." Wu Yurou snorted coldly. "Judging from your appearance, you must have been scolded by Gu Ruobai, right? Then you two had a quarrel, and you think he may not be reliable. The King of Yu in front of you seems to be a good choice, right?"
If they weren't standing so close, Su Mingyu would have reached out to touch Wu Yurou's forehead to see if she had a fever. Otherwise, how could she say such things?
Su Mingyu rolled her eyes. "You can rest assured. I have absolutely no interest in the King of Yu."
Then Su Mingyu touched her nose. "It's true that I had a fight with Gu Ruobai. But you know the reason better than me. You clearly promised to help me. Why did you turn around and tell Gu Ruobai?"
"Heh." Wu Yurou sneered. "It seems you don't know him at all. If you now humble yourself and ask the King of Yu to help you deal with that spy, Gu Ruobai will definitely be very unhappy when he finds out. Then he will only feel more and more useless and lose the will to live."
Su Mingyu rolled her eyes so hard that they were almost turned up to the sky. Gu Ruobai was not such a fragile person. He would definitely not think about committing suicide because of such a small thing.
But seeing Wu Yurou so confident, she was too lazy to expose her. "If you really know him so well, you should also know that since I've already made him unhappy, I have nothing to worry about. I must help Gu Ruobai find that spy."
After saying that, Su Mingyu gave Wu Yurou a determined look and then turned around and left.
Seemingly not expecting Su Mingyu to be so stubborn, Wu Yurou was stunned for a moment and then came to her senses. If Su Mingyu could help Gu Ruobai, why couldn't she?
Although there had been some unpleasantness because of the matter of her marriage to him, she still had feelings for Gu Ruobai in her heart. She wanted to restore their relationship to what it was like in the desert, when they could drink wine and chat under the moonlight.
Su Mingyu glanced at Wu Yurou out of the corner of her eye and was satisfied to see the wavering in her eyes. Only then did the stone in her heart fall to the ground.
When night fell, the King of Yu finally returned from outside. The first thing he did when he got back to the mansion was to ask what Su Mingyu had done today.
The strong man told the King of Yu all the words Su Mingyu had said when she met Su Yueyue. But when it came to Wu Yurou, he scratched his head. "My lord, their voices were very low when they were talking. Although I've been following them all the time, I only vaguely heard a little. It seems they were all talking about Lady Su."
