Chapter 417 Hidden behind the scenes
Concubine Yun held her waist, and her belly was already quite large, so she was slow and struggling.
"I'll see you, afraid that someone will make things difficult for you when I'm not in front of you."
Jun Yuanxi grinned, with a proud and arrogant expression: "It's still the mother who feels most sorry for me."
She earnestly poured a bowl of tea for Concubine Yun: "Mother, your belly is getting more and more round, and you will definitely add a royal brother to me."
"At that time, I see that Jun Qingli and Jun Jiuning will still dare to be so proud!"
Concubine Yun touched her belly, but her expression was a little dim: "But although Doctor Tao Ran rescued the child and grew older, I never felt the fetal movement, and I was always uneasy."
She looked at Jun Yuanxi, pursed her lips, and said a little sadly: "Xi'er, you say, what if he was born..."
Concubine Yun looked around and looked like a thief, revealing a hint of panic and fear in her eyes. She didn't even dare to make a sound, but she dared to tell Jun Yuanxi with her mouth that the two words she said were "stillborn".
Jun Yuanxi also felt a sudden jump, but soon calmed down: "Don't worry, Mom. Doctor Tao Ran is not dead yet, and Mu Yun is so powerful that even if the child is born without breath or is weak, he will definitely be saved. At that time, this ethereal spirit saved Jun Qingli, who was half dead. Tao Ran just learned a little bit of Mu Yun's fur and could save your fetus that almost had a miscarriage in your stomach. What are you afraid of?"
After hearing what she said, Concubine Yun's heart suddenly came to fruition.
Yes, this genius doctor Taoran is somewhat capable and is still standing on their side.
But listening to Jun Yuanxi's praise for Mu Yun in his words, Concubine Yun patted her hand restlessly stroking her belly: "You, you weren't afraid of him before, why are you talking about Lord Mu now?"
The smile on Jun Yuanxi's face calmed down and his heart skipped a beat: "Mom, how did you know?"
Concubine Yun did not pay attention to the change in her face, and said, "When you had nightmares and guarded you for your mother, didn't you tell me?"
Jun Yuanxi had never told anyone that she discovered that the person who imprisoned her was Mu Yun.
Jun Yuanxi knew very well that once someone else knew about this, she would definitely die!
The person who instigated her to poison Jun Xuelan and blamed Jun Jiuning was Mu Yun. He pretended to be good for her and asked someone to plan for her to suddenly get rid of Ning Wang’s hatred was Mu Yun. But in the end, he kidnapped her before Ning Wang and locked her up in that dark and dirty place. The person who had been locked up for half a year was also Mu Yun!
But Jun Xuelan never dared to tell others this. Later, she found out that Mu Yun could coax King Ning to re-overthrow her judgment, and believed that after Emperor Wen and Jun Jiuning killed Jun Xuelan, her fear of Mu Yun became even deeper.
And Su Qing! Jun Yuanxi felt that he was also a woman who was deceived by Mu Yun, who was obviously just a chess piece in the chess game set by the other party, but never knew it.
Mu Yun played with everyone in his hands. He really wanted to stir up the Chu country into a muddy water, allowing the two people at the peak of power to kill each other and completely disintegrate the Chu State.
Only one person has escaped Mu Yun's control - Jun Jiuning.
When Jun Yuanxi thought of her name, he couldn't help but start to hate the person who owned this name.
She had already persuaded herself to let go of her fear of Mu Yun and completely become a pawn for the other party. At least in this way she could live and gain benefits from the choice of following Mu Yun’s camp. However, as soon as Jun Jiuning returned to the palace, he disrupted all the arrangements and plans.
She helped Jun Qingli revival the court and forced Prince Ning to rebel against the Yun family headed by her. Although she almost killed Emperor Wen under Mu Yun's design, she turned the situation around in the end, causing Mu Yun's people to give up all arrangements in Chu, retreated back to their original place, and remained silent.
Jun Yuanxi hated her and was afraid of her. She seemed harmless, but she was actually tough. She seemed to be hitting walls everywhere, but she could always inspire a hidden power.
Jun Yuanxi felt that the two of them must be a life-and-death situation. If they defect to Mu Yun, they can still keep their vitality, and even find a good future because the other party needs Concubine Yun and a puppet. But if Jun Jiuning and Jun Qingli completely control the State of Chu, she will definitely be suppressed and targeted. From then on, they can only hide in the dark place like a mouse. Once they see the light of the sky, they will be added with sticks and will be life worse than death.
So she chose to betray Chu without hesitation.
But even under Mu Yun's control, she still couldn't help but fear Mu Yun, especially after accidentally discovering that Mu Yun was the initiator of everything.
If what she knew was leaked, especially if she was found out by King Ning, she would definitely be killed by Mu Yun!
If King Ning knew that Mu Yun was the murderer who killed Jun Xuelan and designed him and Emperor Wen’s brothers to rebel, he would have gone crazy and used all the power he could use to target him and Liang State. Mu Yun would never be so easy to deal with. Once Mu Yun found out that the matter was leaked from her side, she would definitely suffer all the tortures alive and dead, or live without a burial place!
Jun Yuanxi trembled all over, grabbed Concubine Yun's hand, and said sternly: "Mom, you must not let others know about this! Have you said this to others?!"
Concubine Yun was grabbed by her sharp nails and screamed in pain: "No! I have never told anyone! Xi'er, please let me go first!"
Jun Yuanxi calmed down and let go of Concubine Yun's hand.
"Mom, you know our current situation. You must not talk nonsense, especially when you mention the matter between me and Mu Yun with others, you must remember it!"
Although Concubine Yun was not clear about the inside story, she was also frightened by Jun Yuanxi's terrifying pupils that kept widening. She shrank and nodded: "Mother must remember."
At this moment, a knock on the door suddenly came from outside the door, and Jun Yuanxi subconsciously said sternly: "Who!"
The palace maid who was knocking on the door was startled by Jun Yuanxi's stern warning screams, and then said: "Second Princess, the imperial kitchen is here to deliver supper."
Jun Yuanxi was stunned for a moment. It turned out that it was already evening?
Because she was imprisoned before, she left her psychological shadow. The doors and windows in her houses were closed, and she had to use light-impermeable curtains and window paper to cover them. However, many candles had to be lit in the room, which often made Jun Yuanxi not feel the changes in the sky.
The palace maid reminded: "Second princess, I know that the concubine is here, and the concubine's dinner is also delivered."
Jun Yuanxi's expression was a little slow and he said proudly: "Come in."
