Chapter 221 Return Your Freedom
Yan Muxi let go only after the carriage was far away from the street where Qunfang Pavilion was located.
Yu Wantai leaned against the carriage with a face full of resentment, rubbing his burning scalp, "Really? You dragged me out like this in public, don't you have any dignity?"
"I have already trampled on your face. What does the prince intend to do to me? Whether it is a divorce or a reconciliation, I will gladly accept it." Yan Muxi said in a light tone.
"You, how can you be so unreasonable? It is normal for a man to go out for social events. Your nonsense not only damages my face, but also your own face. What benefit does it bring to you?" Yu Wantai's peach blossom eyes widened, and he looked very angry.
Yan Muxi was not afraid at all, and looked at him with her chin raised. "I am just unreasonable, jealous, petty, and vulgar, so please tell me how you plan to deal with me, my lord."
"Being jealous is the worst of the seven grounds for divorce. I can divorce you." Yu Wantai said something hurtful, and after a pause, he said, "If you can change your jealous bad habit, I can forgive you for what happened."
Yan Muxi sneered, "Oh~ I thank the prince for his magnanimity, but I have been stingy and domineering since I was a child. I don't allow others to share my things. I can't change my bad habits, and I don't want to change them. So if the prince wants to divorce me, just divorce me. I have no complaints and will gladly accept it."
Yu Wantai sat up straight and pointed at her timid threats, "Did you say that? Don't wait until you get the divorce letter and come to me in tears to beg for forgiveness."
"Your Highness may rest assured. I, Yan Muxi, will never regret the decision I make and every step I take forward." After saying this, Yan Muxi smiled bitterly, with tears in her watery eyes.
Yu Wantai turned his eyes away, not meeting her gaze. After a moment of silence, he said bitterly, "Okay, I'll grant your wish. I'll report to the Emperor's sister-in-law soon and ask her to divorce you."
The couple looked to each other and said nothing along the way. The carriage swayed into the palace and slowly stopped in front of the gate of Shuangxinju.
Yu Wantai leaned out of the carriage and was about to jump off when he suddenly heard suppressed sobbing behind him.
He resisted the urge to look back, jumped off the carriage and strode into the yard. He slowed down his pace only when he could no longer hear any sound behind him.
He wanted to go back to the study directly, but his steps seemed to be out of control and he walked towards the bedroom in the main hall. He convinced himself to just take a look to see how hard the little girl was crying, and then leave.
As he stepped into the house, Yu Wantai saw untouched food on the round table, including his favorite dishes such as lotus leaf chicken, steamed sea bass, stir-fried bamboo shoots, shrimp dumplings, etc. Thinking that today was his birthday and the girl was waiting for him to return home to celebrate his birthday, his eyes couldn't help but tear up.
After Yan Muxi and his servant entered the room, Yu Wantai hurriedly walked to the armchair and sat down, pretending to ask casually, "Has the Crown Prince's Consort not had dinner yet?"
"The Crown Princess had planned to have dinner with you, Your Excellency, but you didn't come back and the Crown Princess said she couldn't eat." Yin Xia said truthfully.
Seeing Yan Muxi's waist which seemed to have become slimmer, Yu Wantai frowned and said, "I don't go back home every day. Princess Crown Prince, just eat well. Why are you waiting for me?"
Yan Muxi raised her head with red eyes, "Although I am a woman, I know that keeping one's word is the basic moral code of conduct. I promised to spend your birthday with you, and I will definitely do it. Unlike the prince, I am afraid that he can't remember a single word of what he promised me or said to me."
"What did I, this prince, promise you?" Yu Wantai turned his eyes away guiltily and looked at the already cold dishes.
Yan Muxi's lips curled up with a hint of sarcasm, "Your Highness, just forget it! Now we are going our separate ways, and I don't care about your promise."
Yu Wantai sighed softly and told Dongyu and Yinxia who were standing at the door, "Take the food away and pour it out. Make a bowl of hot noodle soup for the Crown Princess."
Dong Yu walked to the round table with a puffed face and muttered angrily, "The young lady cooked the dishes herself, and I can't bear to throw them away. The prince doesn't want to eat them, so I'll eat them."
The meal I made myself, this little girl can cook?
Seeing Yinxia and Dongyu go out, Yu Wantai hurriedly said, "Noodles alone will definitely be bland, so heat up the dishes and bring them over! Hurry up."
Dongyu puffed up her cheeks and said nothing. Yinxia replied, "Yes, I understand."
When the couple were the only ones left in the room, they fell into silence.
Yu Wantai leaned lazily against the back of the chair, half closed his eyes and rubbed his forehead. He glanced at Yan Muxi who was sitting in front of the dressing table. Seeing that her face in the bronze mirror was still calm, he carefully chose his words to speak.
"I seem to remember something I promised you before. At the beginning, I promised to give you safety and freedom. Now it is a little difficult to ensure your safety, but I can barely promise you freedom."
"If the prince is determined to divorce me, just say it directly. There is no need to find a high-sounding reason." Yan Muxi said in a sarcastic tone.
Yu Wantai did not argue with her, "Think whatever you want! I was a playboy who was a hopeless dandy before, and I will probably remain the same after this. I am lazy in my bones and I can't change it. If you are willing to stay and be your Rong Wang's prince consort, then stay. If you don't like what I did, I will give you freedom as promised."
"In addition to promising me safety and freedom, the prince also promised me that he would never abandon me at any time. We made a pinky promise, does it still count?"
Yan Muxi turned around and stared at Yu Wantai, but Yu Wantai half-closed his eyes and didn't look at her at all.
"What you said when you were in the mood for sex should not be taken seriously. This prince has also made many sweet promises to other girls. How could I remember every word? Besides, this prince has never broken his promise and never wanted to abandon you. It's just that you are jealous and can't tolerate my normal needs. You can't blame me for breaking my promise." Yu Wantai's tone was filled with his usual nonchalantness.
Yan Muxi smiled bitterly and retracted his gaze, "Your Highness is really good at speaking and can turn black into white. Whether you are trustworthy or not, I don't want to argue with you anymore, because it is meaningless. Please remember, Your Highness, I, Yan Muxi, am a man of my words. I will never forgive anyone who betrays me in this life, the next life, or the next life after that."
His peach blossom eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of fog, as if he was half drunk. Yu Wantai closed his eyes and took several deep breaths, trying to drive away the fog.
There was another long silence between the two. This time, Yan Muxi spoke first, "The prince said he would give me freedom. How can I give it to him?"
She was the Crown Prince's Consort of Prince Rong, who was married off by the Queen. Whether she wanted to divorce or be divorced, she had to get the Queen's approval. But even if she was divorced and returned home, she could not be said to have true freedom.
"It's up to you. I will cooperate with whatever freedom you want me to give you."
As soon as Yu Wantai finished speaking, the bead curtain was lifted, and Yinxia and Dongyu walked in carrying hot dishes.
After the dishes were served on the table, Yan Muxi waved his hand to let the two leave, walked to the round table, picked up the wine jug, and filled the wine cups.
"We are husband and wife, and we are not very happy when we are together. Let's be happier when we are apart and have a good farewell banquet, okay?"
Yu Wantai readily agreed, “How can I not agree to such a small request from the Crown Princess?” After saying that, he stood up and walked to the round table and sat down.
