The Princess Kicks Down the Protagonists

Chapter 254 I Don’t Want to Be a Prince Anymore

Yongqi's previous worries were not wrong. Yongqi had a hard time in Huibin Building these days, and Concubine Yu also had a very hard time in Yonghe Palace.

Yongqi didn't come back for three days, and Concubine Yu didn't sleep for three days.

After Xinrong returned home, she could no longer enter the palace often, and Cailian was the only one left among Concubine Yu who could talk to her.

Seeing Concubine Yu in such a trance, Cai Lian felt that something was wrong, but no matter how hard she tried to persuade her, Concubine Yu just kept on persevering.

Even if she was forced to close her eyes, Concubine Yu could not fall asleep.

What is Concubine Yu thinking about?

Concubine Yu herself didn't know.

She only knew that her son had a big fight with her and never came back. There was no doubt that he was with Xiaoyanzi.

Yongqi was so cruel. He knew that his mother would be worried and angry, but he still didn't come back for three whole days and didn't even bring back a word.

Is he demonstrating to her?

Cai Lian stepped forward and handed over a cup of soothing tea. "Your Majesty, please take a rest. Who knows, when you wake up, the Fifth Prince might be back."

Concubine Yu shook her head slightly and pushed the teacup away. Her movements were a little clumsy.

"He won't come back."

Looking at Concubine Yu's frustrated look, Cai Lian didn't know whether she was worried or angry.

Cai Lian didn't understand why Concubine Yu had such a strong desire for control. The Fifth Prince was a grown man who was good at martial arts, and a bald prince with no real power. He just spent the night outside. Was it necessary to make such a fuss?

This was the case last time he stayed out all night, and this time it was even more exaggerated.

Could it be that after the Fifth Prince gets married and leaves the palace to set up his own residence, Concubine Yu will have to monitor the situation in the palace every day?

That’s right, Concubine Yu really had this idea.

From the moment the Fifth Prince was born, Concubine Yu's entire life became about the Fifth Prince, and everything she did was for him.

The Fifth Prince is not only her hope and reliance, but also her spiritual pillar.

In fact, it is normal for women in the harem who cannot see the emperor every day to pin their hopes on their own children, but it is obvious that Concubine Yu went a little too far.

She has been in charge of everything for the Fifth Prince since he was a child, and it has become a habit. In addition, Yongqi is sensible and obedient, and understands the difficulties his mother faces.

One can even say that he is a rare filial son and a very kind child.

But it was precisely because of this that Concubine Yu's desire for control was magnified.

The well-behaved child she had raised for twenty years changed drastically because of a woman who had only appeared for a few months.

Not only did he start to behave badly, but he also dared to disobey his mother. This was a devastating blow to Concubine Yu.

In addition, Concubine Yu has always wanted her son to inherit the throne, so how could his future queen be a woman like Xiaoyanzi?

Before they got married, the Fifth Prince had already gotten into trouble repeatedly for Xiaoyanzi. If he had really been allowed to marry Xiaoyanzi, the Fifth Prince would have completely lost the chance to hold that position.

However, Concubine Yu didn't know that her son had long been kicked off the emperor's list of heirs, and she was still dreaming of becoming the empress dowager.

Even for fear of affecting the image of the Fifth Prince, Concubine Yu suppressed the news and did not let others know that the Fifth Prince had not returned for many days.

But beautiful dreams must eventually end, and Concubine Yu is now in this delicate state between half asleep and half awake, so she is becoming more and more nervous.

She was determined not to allow Xiaoyanzi, a piece of dirt, to drag down her child.

Just as Cai Lian was considering whether to give Concubine Yu medicine to make her sleep, there was a commotion outside the courtyard.

"Fifth Prince is back! Fifth Prince is back!"

Everyone could see that Concubine Yu was not feeling well these past few days, so even the young eunuchs were particularly excited that the Fifth Prince could return.

Concubine Yu finally came back to her senses and put on a stern face, wanting to teach the Fifth Prince a lesson.

Before he could even stand up, Yongqi rushed in aggressively.

Cailian thought to herself that this was not going well and hurriedly stopped Yongqi. "Brother, you must be tired, and so is the Queen. Why don't you take a break? We can talk later if you have anything to say."

Yongqi knew he had come back to beg his mother. He knelt heavily on the ground and begged, "Mother, please help me break off the engagement. I want to marry Xiaoyanzi as my first wife!"

As soon as Yongqi said this, Concubine Yu exploded: "What kind of magic potion did Xiaoyanzi give you again! You and Xinrong are about to get married, what nonsense are you talking about!"

However, Yongqi was determined this time. He looked at Concubine Yu firmly and said word by word: "Xiaoyanzi has a serious illness and may not be cured, so I must marry her."

When she heard that she was a sickly girl, Concubine Yu became even angrier: "That's even more impossible. Will marrying a sickly girl bring bad luck?"

Bad luck? Yongqi looked at Concubine Yu in disbelief, obviously not expecting her to say such a thing.

"Mother, how can you say such cruel words? How did you become so cold-blooded!"

Concubine Yu roared hysterically, "I'm cold-blooded? My son has gone crazy for a woman, not only talking back to his elders, but he's even giving up on his future. Do you still expect me to say anything nice?"

Hearing this, Yongqi was completely desperate. "Yes, I don't want my son's future anymore. I only want Xiaoyanzi. I've already made Xiaoyanzi sad once, and I can't let her be sad again!"

"Can you bear to see my mother sad?" Concubine Yu's eyes were red and she looked extremely sad.

Yongqi hesitated for a moment, but thinking of Xiaoyanzi's current situation, he still spoke up.

"Mother, Xiaoyanzi is very kind. After we get married, she will definitely respect you as much as I do. She will definitely not be worse than Xinrong. Besides, you always said that Xiaoyanzi was a commoner, and now she has become a county lady, she is just right for our son."

"What the hell is suitable!" The teacup was thrown heavily at Yongqi's feet. Concubine Yu could no longer hold back and cursed out loud.

The fact that a woman who is always known for her gentleness and virtue could be made to curse at others shows that she is really angry.

Seeing that Concubine Yu refused to listen, Yongqi frowned.

"Mother, I'm not here to beg you. I'll tell you the truth. I don't want to be your prince anymore. If you can't accept Xiaoyanzi, then I'll be an ordinary couple with her."

"You! You're such a bastard!"

Snapped!

Concubine Yu raised her hand and hit Yongqi hard.

She even used so much force that her own hands hurt.

After the beating, Concubine Yu felt a little distressed, but when she thought of Yongqi's nonsense, she pointed at him and cursed him again.

"You are such an unfaithful and unfilial person! Are you going to deny your ancestors and parents just for a woman?"

Yongqi didn't expect Concubine Yu to attack him. He was stunned for a moment, but after he came to his senses, he resisted even more fiercely.

"Yes! I don't accept it. Being born into a royal family is so boring! If being a prince means being cold-blooded and ruthless, then I don't want it at all!"

Concubine Yu was so angry that she was shaking. She raised her hand to slap him again, but Yongqi stood up suddenly and dodged it.

At this point, Yongqi knew that he could not retreat and could only give his opponent a final push.

He said harshly, "Mother, if you don't agree to me marrying Xiaoyanzi, then I will never come back!"

After saying that, Yongqi turned around and left resolutely.

This time, Concubine Yu did not call anyone to capture him.
