Chapter 75 Eavesdropping on Yun Rui pleading for Yun Juan
Night had fallen, and it was getting late; the entire capital city was shrouded in darkness.
Yun Juan carefully carried an exquisite food box and hurriedly slipped out of the Prince's mansion, running all the way to the Prime Minister's residence.
As she ran, she kept looking back, afraid that someone would discover her whereabouts.
Yun Juan carefully pushed open the door, peeked inside and looked around, and only breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that no one was there.
She tiptoed to her bedside, and just as she was about to sit down, she heard a cough behind her.
"Miss, you're finally back." It was her maid, Qinghe. Qinghe looked at her anxiously, "Madam discovered you were missing and has sent people everywhere to search for you."
Yun Juan was startled; she hadn't expected her mother to discover her disappearance so quickly.
She originally planned to sneak away for a while and then quietly come back, but she was discovered anyway.
"Qinghe, what should I do?" Yun Juan asked in a panic.
Qinghe thought for a moment and said, "Miss, don't worry. We can pretend that you've been in your room the whole time and haven't gone out."
Yun Juan nodded and quickly tidied her clothes and hair to make herself look like she had been in the room the whole time.
Just then, footsteps sounded outside the door, followed by a knock and a voice saying, "Miss, Madam has come to see you."
Yun Quan's heart tightened, and she hurriedly signaled Qing He to hide the food box.
She took a deep breath, composed herself, and then went to open the door.
"Mother, what brings you here?" Yun Juan asked, feigning surprise.
Wei Wan walked into the room, looked around, and then her gaze fell on Yun Juan. "I heard from the servants that you went missing last night. I was worried that something had happened to you, so I came to check on you."
"My daughter just felt a bit stuffy in the room, so she went out for some fresh air," Yun Juan said softly, her head lowered.
A hint of suspicion flashed in Wei Wan's eyes, but she didn't say anything more. "Don't wander around at night anymore. This capital city isn't safe."
"Daughter understands." Yun Juan nodded obediently.
Wei Wan gave a few more instructions and then left. After she left, Yun Juan and Qing He finally breathed a sigh of relief.
“Miss, you can’t take such risks again. If Madam finds out you sneaked out to deliver food to the Regent, she’ll definitely blame you.” Qinghe looked at Yun Juan with concern.
Yun Juan sighed softly, "I understand, I won't do it again next time." She was also a little scared. If her mother found out the truth, it would probably be more than just a scolding.
However, the thought of Murong Qian eating the food she sent filled Yun Juan with a strange sense of satisfaction.
"By the way, Miss, what should we do with the food box?" Qinghe pointed to the food box on the table.
Yun Juan thought for a moment, "Let's put it away first. It'll be more troublesome if Mother catches us in the room later!"
However, they were unaware that a pair of eyes were watching all of this from the shadows...
Yun Rong had just arrived outside Yun Ting's study and was about to knock on the door when she heard her father and elder brother talking inside.
"Father, are you really going to marry my sister to the Regent?" Yunrui's voice carried a hint of resentment.
"This is the Emperor's decree, and we cannot disobey it," Yun's father said helplessly.
“But the Regent… he’s cursed to bring misfortune to his wives! And rumors say he’s violent and cruel. Wouldn’t it be like sending a lamb to the slaughter if my sister married him?” Yunrui said anxiously.
“I know this marriage is unfair to Juan’er, but our Yun family cannot refuse. If we anger the Emperor, the entire Yun family may face annihilation.” Yun Ting sighed deeply.
Upon hearing this, Yun Rong was startled.
She really didn't expect that Yun Rui, who had always hidden in his room and refused to see anyone, would actually come out of that room for Yun Juan, and even take the initiative to go to the study to find his father!
This was completely unexpected for her!
Yun Rong stared wide-eyed at Yun Rui, who was sitting in a wheelchair in the study. She never expected him to do such a thing.
She asked herself, "If it were me, would he do it?" Yunrong murmured to herself.
Her eyes became complicated, filled with both gratitude and jealousy.
Yun Rong bit her lip, turned around and quietly left.
She decided to go to the old lady and tell her about it.
When Yunrong told the old lady about this, the old lady was shocked.
"What should we do, Rong'er? Do you have any ideas?" the old lady asked anxiously.
Yun Rong pondered for a moment, a resolute glint in her eyes.
"Grandmother, I have a plan. If the Regent refuses to marry her, we'll drug her! We'll make her marry into the family while she's unconscious, forcing her into marriage!" A ruthless glint flashed in Yun Rong's eyes!
The old lady nodded. "That's excellent. But... we can't let them know about this, or we'll both be in deep trouble!"
Yun Rong smiled confidently, "I have a plan. I will find the best doctor and have him prescribe some medicine for Yun Juan!"
After saying that, Yun Rong began to make the arrangements. She secretly prayed that the plan would succeed.
She absolutely would not allow the other party to ruin the marriage, because it meant a great deal to her.
As the eldest daughter of the Prime Minister's mansion, Yun Juan is of noble status and prominent position, but she also bears the expectations and responsibilities of her family.
If this marriage is disrupted, it will not only have a serious impact on her personally, but may even affect the reputation and future of the Prime Minister's Mansion.
After all, marriage is a major event involving intermarriage and interests between families. If the marriage breaks down for some reason, it will bring huge trouble to the entire Prime Minister's residence.
As a result, the Prime Minister's Mansion will face pressure and questioning from all sides, and the family's status may be shaken.
Therefore, Yunrong must be cautious about this marriage and not let it be easily ruined.
Therefore, no matter what, she had to get married, and it would be best if she died in the Regent's Palace.
If Yun Juan really ruins this marriage, the consequences will be very serious.
If Yun Juan doesn't marry, then this marriage will likely fall to her. She couldn't help but fall into deep thought, a complex emotion welling up in her heart.
In this process, she gradually matured, learned to face difficulties and challenges, and stopped running away from reality. She firmly believes that as long as she sticks to her beliefs, she will definitely find her own path to happiness.
Once that happens, it will be too late for her to refute it.
After all, this is a marriage that has already been arranged, and it cannot be changed just like that.
Moreover, if she were to forcefully object, she would not only offend the Prime Minister's office, but it might also cause other unnecessary trouble.
Therefore, she decided to take action to protect the marriage from being ruined.
She will do everything in her power to ensure the marriage goes smoothly and that both parties are satisfied with the outcome.
