Chapter 539: Chapter 541 Gentle and Jade-like Yi Shaochen (5)
Sometimes, love means not caring at all, but once you fall in love, you must endure the agony that pierces the heart. This is the fate of a woman, especially one in the harem…
The corners of the Empress’s lips curled into a bitter smile as she gently patted Liu Yu’s hand, “Just remember, no matter how many women serve Chenchen in the future, they will never surpass you. You are the Princess Consort of the Chen Prince Mansion, and if anyone disobeys your commands, you can punish them at any time. That is the power you hold! Yu’er, I know you love Chenchen deeply, to the point of losing yourself. You have expelled all his concubines, and the women related to him have also been executed under various pretexts by you. But men prefer generous women; even if you feel jealous, you cannot show it, or it will only provoke dislike.”
Liu Yu’s body trembled slightly.
Is this the destiny of a woman? Why can’t men be faithful to one woman? Why must they have mistresses and concubines? And why must a woman send the man she loves into the arms of other women?
She couldn’t accept it!
Brother Shaochen was hers alone, and no one else could defile him! Otherwise, just like those lowly women who once seduced Brother Shaochen, they would perish at her hands!
A murderous intent flashed through Liu Yu’s heart, but her face betrayed no emotion as she responded calmly, “Aunt, Yu’er understands. I will certainly take good care of Brother Shaochen in the future.”
Seeing that she had taken her advice, the Empress smiled with satisfaction, “Yu’er, you may go now. I will handle that matter.”
Liu Yu bit her lip tightly and stood up from the Empress’s embrace, her long eyelashes casting shadows that hid the discontent and darkness in her eyes. She turned and walked toward the exit of Ningxin Palace.
…
Mu Ruyue walked out of the room, stretching lazily in the sunlight, a slight smile curling the edges of her lips, “The air here in Wujie is quite similar to that of the continent. It’s time for me to go out and gather some information…”
Perhaps due to Yi Shaochen’s previous instructions, Mu Ruyue found her way out of the Chen Prince Mansion unobstructed and left quickly.
However, she soon discovered a new situation…
On the continent, gold and silver were used as currency, along with silver notes, not much different from ancient Huaxia. However, in Wujie the currency was gold coins and silver coins, similar to that of ancient Egypt…
Thus, Mu Ruyue became a penniless pauper.
“Ever since I came here, this seems to be the second time I’ve felt anxious about money,” Mu Ruyue sighed helplessly, “but no matter where you are, being without money makes everything difficult. It seems I need to find a way to make some money…”
Just as she was deep in thought, a huge figure blocked her path…
Mu Ruyue’s brows furrowed slightly as she slowly lifted her gaze to the man’s rough features, asking indifferently, “What is it?”
The man grinned slyly, his prurient gaze as if capable of piercing through her clothes, “Though there’s a scar on your face, you’re still quite a beauty, especially that figure of yours, tsk tsk… Pretty girl, how about playing with brother here? I will surely make it very enjoyable for you!”
This beauty had offended Liu Yu, and the Miss of the Liu Family had paid him 500 silver coins to deal with this woman.
This time, not only had he received money, but he could also enjoy himself thoroughly.
To make a woman with such a figure his own would definitely be more thrilling than those in the brothels! It had been a long time since he had such pleasure.
