Arc 3.16 : Wait For Opportunity to Steal the Prince

—

After lunch, they went to the Queen’s favorite garden to have tea and chat. The Emperor and the Queen already knew how Du Yao found Ye You, and they also promised Du Yao that they would not investigated about the space-time shuttle.

“Did you live well in the previous time and space?” The Queen asked as she looked at Ye You.

“I had a good life. Mom and dad treated me so well, even though I didn’t look like them at all, I never thought that I wasn’t their biological child.” Ye You said.

“It’s unfortunate that they live in another time and space, otherwise we would definitely thank them for being kind to you.” The Queen said, “In fact, we have never given up looking for you these years, but we never thought that you would be taken to another time and space by the cosmic storm. I know that you still can’t accept that we are your biological parents in your heart , please give us a chance to make up for you, okay?”

“You didn’t mean to abandon me in the first place. It’s beyond your control to have such a thing happened, so I don’t blame you.” Ye You slightly lowered his head and said, “Moreover in another time and space, I also lived a wealthy life like a prince, I got what I wanted, and I lived every day to make myself happy. Later, I went to the other two time and space. Because Du Yao was there, I have been living very well and very happy. So, I don’t really need (you) to make up for it, and you don’t have to treat me with a sense of indebtedness. It’s just that I’m still a little uncomfortable now, and it’ll be fine when I get along with you for a long time.”

“I know that if Du Yao hadn’t brought you back, you definitely wouldn’t want to come back. We are very grateful to Du Yao and also to God for sending you back to us. You are our only child, although we adopted Jin Lan, but no one can replace your place in our hearts.” The Queen looked at Ye You and said, “I hope you don’t get angry with us because we adopted Jin Lan. Jin Lan and Benny beat you up before, we…we didn’t know that you are… sorry, after you left us, you didn’t suffer any grievances, yet you have been wronged while you are so close to us, I’m sorry.”

As the Queen spoke, she shed tears again.

“It doesn’t matter. Actually, I let him do it on purpose. Because of his status as a prince, I can’t fight or resist him. I can only make him suffer a bit when he beat me.” Ye You confessed.

Hearing Ye You say that he didn’t dare to fight and resist Jin Lan because of his status as the prince, the Queen felt even more distressed.

“Actually, it’s just a plan of convenience1Raw 权宜之计(quányí zhī jì); plan of convenience (idiom), stop-gap measure, makeshift stratagem, interim step. for us to adopt Jin Lan, because his father was very ambitious, we felt that by putting their family in a more prominent position, with more people looking at them, they would not be able to do more dirty tricks.” The Emperor looked at Ye You and said, “Your mother and I have never actually thought about letting Jin Lan inherit the throne. He was not our chosen heir before, and he is not now. We are very  gratified to see you are so outstanding, and grateful to the parents who raised you.”

“I, actually it’s because I…” Ye You turned his head to look at Du Yao, and then said, “Because I have some unusual abilities, that’s why I…”

“We know.” The Queen looked at Ye You and said, “Your Imperial Father also has some unusual abilities, that’s why he can secure the throne, but we feel that your ability is stronger than your father, your grandfather, and your great-grandfather.”

“Perhaps, in your heart you don’t want to be the heir to the throne, but as our child, you have some responsibilities that need to be shouldered. This is the responsibility that fate has entrusted to us. We have no way to shirk it. I hope that you can face it with a good attitude, not with resistance. ”

Some fates cannot be escaped, just like Ye You who has been away from this world for more than three hundred years, but still returned here after all. So the Emperor hoped that he could accept the responsibilities bestowed by fate with a positive attitude, so that he would live a more relaxed and happy life.

“I know, before I came to see you, I was already mentally prepared to accept and face everything.” Ye You was very easy to soften his heart towards his loved ones, let alone the one in front of him were his biological parents who have been looking for him for more than three hundred years, so he knows that it was impossible for him to reject them cruelly, and one day he will have to take on the responsibilities assigned to him by fate.

When Ye You and Du Yao got up to leave, the Queen held Ye You’s hand tightly, not wanting him to leave.

Seeing the Queen’s reluctance, Ye You couldn’t bear it. After all, the Queen was his biological mother, and she cared about and searched for him for so many years, she was sad and heartbroken because of missing him. But because he didn’t know, he never missed or cared for them. Thinking about it this way, he felt guilty instead.

Because of the feeling of guilt, Ye You couldn’t bear to make the Queen feel sad, so he agreed to stay for one night and asked Du Yao to pick him up tomorrow.

The Queen was very happy, and immediately asked people to get ready.

Then the whole night, the Queen stayed in Ye You’s bedroom, asking him about his childhood. Asked him what he likes to eat, what he likes to plays, and what hobbies he has, as if she wanted to know all his preference overnight, as well as everything that happened in those days she missed.

Ye You originally planned to go back to live with Du Yao the next day, but he still underestimated how soft-hearted he was. In just one night, he had already felt the feeling of mother-child connection on the Queen. So when the Queen asked him to stay for another night, he immediately agreed and stayed for several days.

Du Yao went to pick up Ye You every day, but failed to bring him back. At this time, he already knew that it would not be an easy task to take Ye You back from the palace in the future.

Although Ye You stayed in the palace in order to be able to spend more time with the Queen, the Queen did not talk to him until dawn every night, so at night, when Ye You slept alone in the bedroom, he would hope that Du Yao can accompany him. Even if it was confirmed that he was also a person of this world, and has his own biological parents, the palace was his home, but in his heart, he still has a great sense of dependence on Du Yao.

Du Yao was busy at the base until very late before going to the suite to get ready to rest. He had just undressed to take a shower when he received a message from Ye You.

After Du Yao read the messages, he sighed helplessly, so he could only put on his clothes, and then rushed to the palace in the middle of the night.

Du Yao was Ye You’s fiancé, and Ye You was now the prince. The Queen also knew that Ye You couldn’t leave Du Yao for a while, and immediately regarded the palace as his own home, so she ordered the Emperor to allow Du Yao to enter and leave the palace freely.

Ye You lay on the bed, watching Du Yao’s position was moving, and getting closer and closer to him.

After the bedroom door was pushed open, Ye You immediately got up and flew into Du Yao’s arms.

“Why didn’t you come to pick me up today?” Ye You hugged Du Yao’s waist tightly, looked up at him and asked in a low voice.

“If I’m here to pick you up, will you go back with me?” Du Yao said while looking at him.

“Are you angry?” Ye You asked.

“Do I look like I’m angry?” Du Yao deliberately said with a straight face.

“Like.” Ye You nodded.

“It’s right, because I just want you to see that I’m angry.” Du Yao had expected to become like this, so he originally thought to tell Ye You as late as possible, that he might be the child of the Emperor and Queen. However, he did not expect that the Emperor and the Queen would recognize Ye You at a glance.

“Don’t be angry.” Ye You said coquettishly in a low voice: “You also know that my Queen Mother has headaches. Her psychologically induced illness cannot be completely cured with medicine. It can only be treated by adjusting emotions, so I want to spend more time with her. After her headaches stop to flare up, I can go home with you frequently. ”

“Do you believe you own words?” Du Yao asked as he looked at him.

“…” Ye You fell silent with a guilty conscience, because he was now the prince, and he has a lot to learn in the future, and the time to go home with Du Yao will definitely be less.

“Are you convincing me with reasons that you don’t even believe?” Du Yao was not really angry in his heart, he just wanted Ye You to felt that he was angry, otherwise Ye You would definitely ignore him even more in the future.

“I can’t do anything about it now, please be considerate of me and don’t make trouble with me, okay?” Ye You blinked at him and continued to act like a spoiled child.

Du Yao looked at him silently.

“Then how about… after the banquet in the palace is over, can we discuss the marriage with Imperial Father and Queen Mother?” Ye You took Du Yao’s hand and used his trump card, □□2I wish there’s no censored, now my mind was full of “what is his trump card?” I assume it might be the marriage talk or when YY holding DY’ hand, but why censored??? (´◕o◕｀).

Du Yao sighed, and could only looked at Ye You with helpless gaze, because it was almost impossible for them to get married now, and currently, there were too many obstacles.

In fact, Ye You knew very well in his heart that he just coaxed Du Yao, but seeing that the effect didn’t seemed to be very good, he took Du Yao’s hand and walked to the side of the bed, asked him to sit on the bed, and then sat on his lap .

“You know that when you’re not around, I won’t be able to sleep well in a strange place by myself, and you deliberately don’t come to accompany me.” Ye You tempted Du Yao while complaining to him.

“If I come to the palace every day, it will have bad impact, and others may think that I am waiting for opportunity to steal the throne.” Du Yao continued to say with a straight face on purpose.

“What kind of bad impact, you did it on purpose.” Ye You stopped, squinted at him with dissatisfaction and said, “You just made excuses not to accompany me on purpose, it was you who made me get into the habit of not sleeping well when you weren’t around, and you knew it but did it on purpose. ”

Seeing that Ye You stopped moving, Du Yao turned over and put him on the bed, kissed him for a while and said, “Since you insist that I go to the palace every day to sleep with you, if someone says that I wait for an opportunity to steal the throne, I’m going to directly said publicly that I was waiting for an opportunity to steal the prince, and I don’t care about the throne.”

Ye You opened his mouth, but couldn’t speak anymore.

They haven’t married yet so it’s normal for him to stay with his parent, but why does I feel YY was a bit selfish here _(:3」∠)_
