Chapter 232: Chapter 233 Chu Yu Seeks Peace
At that moment, no one noticed the trace of mockery that flit across Pei Huaian’s eyes.
When the others saw Pei Chengye leave, they also took their leave one after another. Pei Siyang paused as he was leaving and said, “Being a royal descendant, there are too many things beyond one’s control, especially concerning matters of marriage. You should know what you can and cannot do.”
“Thank you for the reminder, elder brother.” Pei Huaian bowed.
Pei Siyang raised his hand to pat his shoulder, speaking earnestly, “Doctor Shao is a good woman, but no matter what, there won’t be a good outcome between you two.”
The Emperor would definitely not agree to anything between them, especially since Doctor Shao also had a child.
Pei Huaian did not respond to this matter, merely curling his lips into a faint smile.
Pei Siyang did not know if he had really taken it to heart, he could only shake his head helplessly as he left.
Pei Huaian returned to the courtyard. Ah Mo approached him and said, “The maid has been checked; she’s not from the Second Prince’s people.”
“Hmm, find a reason to send her away.” Pei Huaian knew this matter was not related to the maid, it must be related to Pei Jingyi.
“Yes.” Ah Mo immediately turned to carry out the task.
…
Inside the Princess’s Mansion, Princess Huimin looked at the numerous gifts for the betrothal and nodded her approval.
“Yan Ze is a decent man, and being the Minister of the Court of Judicial Review, he will not mistreat you.”
“Mother,” Xu Han said shyly, head bowed, her hands continuously twisting an embroidered handkerchief.
Princess Huimin stretched out her hand to tap her daughter’s forehead, “Although Yan Ze’s status is not as noble as a Prince’s, he is still young and has opportunities to rise.”
“Young Master Yan is indeed a good person.” Xu Han pursed her lips into a smile, her eyes gleaming.
Yan Ze was a very gentle man, meticulous and considerate, unlike other men.
“Although you are already betrothed, you must still observe the rules strictly. You must never overstep, lest you tarnish the royal family’s reputation.” Princess Huimin advised, feeling uneasy.
“Yes, daughter will keep mother’s teachings in mind,” Xu Han said obediently.
Princess Huimin looked at the betrothal gifts on the table and sighed, “Ah, if only Huaian were as obedient as you.”
She suddenly remembered that a few days ago Pei Huaian had sent someone to message her, expressly asking her not to interfere with Shao He’s marriage, which made her feel there was something unusual between the two.
Otherwise, why would he care so much about this matter?
“Do you think there is something between Huaian and Doctor Shao?”
“Daughter had already said at the beginning, there must be something between them, especially the way Brother Huaian looks at Shao He, it’s very ambiguous,” Xu Han confidently stated, recalling how her mother had said she was overthinking back then.
Princess Huimin truly hadn’t expected that Pei Huaian would fall for a woman with a child, thinking he would understand to not disregard the royal family’s dignity, but it appeared she was mistaken.
“Their statuses do not match, just the fact that Doctor Shao has a child means she’s not even qualified to be a concubine, let alone match the Commandery Princess.”
Hearing her mother’s words, Xu Han advised, “You should worry less about Brother Huaian’s affairs to avoid resentment.”
Such thankless tasks were best left undone, and she could see that it was Huaian who was deeply mired in this.

Princess Huimin, however, did not see it that way, feeling extremely uneasy and decided to go to the Emperor immediately.
Xu Han reached out her hand as if to say something, watching her mother hasten to leave, but stopped her words as she saw her retreating back.
Two days later, Chu Yu, looking exhausted, sought out Shao He. At this moment, he had none of his usual arrogance, exuding an air of defeat.
“You need something?” Shao He asked him in an exceptionally cold tone.
“I want to talk to you,” Chu Yu said with a complicated expression.
Shao He blatantly ignored him, “There’s nothing to talk about, please leave.”
“Won’t you even listen to Princess Huimin’s request?” Chu Yu said, annoyed and helpless as he saw the cold-faced person.
The situation had escalated to this point all because of his own faults, yet he still hoped Shao He would give him another chance.
“Impossible.” Shao He immediately rejected the notion.
She did not believe Princess Huimin would do such a thing, as there would be no benefit to her at all.
“Shao He!” Chu Yu exclaimed, eyes red with emotion.
Shao He raised an eyebrow, “What, looking for a fight?”
Chu Yu took a deep breath, calming the anger swirling in his chest.
“I sincerely wish to marry you, I hope you will consider it. It was my fault before, for being too credulous and overlooking the affection you had for me,” Chu Yu said, his eyes burning with hope. He did not believe that Shao He had truly forgotten their past feelings, thinking instead that she was merely acting out of spite.
Shao He was momentarily stunned, then laughed scornfully, “Chu Yu, have you lost your mind?”
Chu Yu gave a bitter smile, “I know I am a bastard, but I truly care for you and hope you can accommodate me. If you agree, I will surely repay you twice over in the future.”
“What will you repay me with?” Shao He said scornfully, “You have nothing now.”
“I…” Chu Yu faltered.
Shao He sniffed disdainfully, “I will not agree to your proposal, let this notion die.”
Chu Yu clenched his teeth and after a moment of silence added, “Since you are stubborn, we shall see what happens.”
“Don’t let the door hit you on the way out.” Shao He gave him a warning glare and turned away.
Watching her walk away without a second glance, Chu Yu clenched his fists, his nails digging into his palms, the pain igniting a certain impulse in his mind.
