Chapter 314 An Unbreakable Bond
Chapter 314 An Unbreakable Bond
Yu Ying's marriage to the Xia Emperor was a decision she had no choice but to make. She never saw her elder sister again after marrying him.
Previously, she had repeatedly asked Emperor Xia to let her meet her elder sister. However, whenever Yu Ying brought this up with Emperor Xia, he would put on a sour face.
Moreover, before this, Emperor Xia would often take Yu Ying out for sightseeing, but ever since Yu Ying asked him to meet her elder sister, Emperor Xia locked her in the house.
This is the real reason why Yu Ying still wanted to escape from Emperor Xia even after she had given birth to his daughter.
Originally, she didn't want her elder sister to know about her faked death, because she was afraid that Yuqin might accidentally let it slip one day.
If the Xia Emperor knew that I had not died, he would definitely try every means to bring me back.
If this really happens, wouldn't I never be able to see my older sister again in this lifetime?
So from the very beginning, Yu Ying was determined not to let her elder sister (Yu Qin) know that she was still alive in this world.
However, when she saw her most beloved elder sister crying heartbrokenly at her funeral, she wavered in her previously made decision.
Especially when she saw her coffin about to be carried out by others, the eldest sister immediately got up and wanted to smash her head against her own coffin to her death.
She longed to tell her that she was still alive, and for a moment she even wanted to rush forward and hug her older sister tightly.
But if I really did that, wouldn't everything I had done before be for nothing?
So she had no choice but to suppress this impulse in her heart, but seeing her elder sister's unbearable pain, Yu Ying felt hatred growing in her heart.
If Emperor Xia hadn't fallen for her back then, none of this would have happened, right? If he hadn't kept such a strict watch on her, she wouldn't have even thought of faking her death, would she?
If I hadn't faked my death, my older sister wouldn't have cried so heartbrokenly, right? And I could have been peacefully by my newborn daughter's side.
Watching her grow up safely and happily, wouldn't you feel better knowing you wouldn't have to endure the pain of separation from your child?
But all these wonderful things were ruined by Emperor Xia! How can you not hate him? Why can't you do everything you can to destroy what she values most?
The reason he had kept his true identity hidden for so many years was because his only beloved daughter, Xia Rong, was the one he was most worried about.
He had originally planned to put in some effort to place his most valued subordinate next to Xia Rong.
That way, she can hear news about her beloved daughter anytime, anywhere. Perhaps God is silently supporting her from behind.
Just as she was figuring out how to plant her own spies around Xia Rong, Emperor Xia suddenly announced that he would be selecting a clever and quick-witted young girl to serve Xia Rong.
So he sent Peach, who had been training for many years, to the Xia residence for a tryout. To his surprise, Peach was actually chosen!
I was very happy when I heard the news, because this way I can see my precious daughter from time to time.
If Xia Rong were still an infant at this moment, he could hold her in his arms without any restraint.
But Xia Rong is already a five or six-year-old child! Children at this age have excellent memories.
Moreover, he is full of curiosity about the people and things around him. I am really afraid that if I stay by Xia Rong's side for too long, the little guy will go and ask Xia Di.
"A strange aunt appeared in my life. This aunt was really nice to me and often liked to hug me."
"Maybe my carefully planned scheme of many years will be completely wiped out because of this! But hiding from my own daughter like this is really not a solution!"
While Yu Ying was still immersed in a painful memory, a voice she longed for rang in her ears.
Yuying! Yuying! Is it really you? My dear eldest sister, why haven't you come to see me all these years?
Are you still blaming me for losing our little princess back then? But do you know? I was very careful when I was taking care of our little princess back then.
We just weren't watching her when we took our little princess out to buy candied hawthorns that time, and we never imagined she would be kidnapped.
When Yu Ying saw her elder sister silently shedding tears, she quickly took out a handkerchief from her pocket and gently wiped away the tears on Yu Qin's face.
"Oh dear! What are you doing? I don't blame you at all for losing Xia Rong back then."
"Why blame yourself so much? Besides, what happened back then was all orchestrated by that wicked Emperor Xia!"
Yuqin was very surprised when she heard this! Because she remembered that when those bad guys snatched Xia Rong from her, someone hit Xia Rong on the head with a thick wooden stick.
If it's really as I suspect, and Emperor Xia ordered his men to injure Xia Rong's head, wouldn't that be a terrifying thing?
They say even tigers recognize their own cubs! If it were really as I think, wouldn't the Xia Emperor be even more ferocious than a tiger?
Thinking of this, Yuqin couldn't help but feel nervous! So she tried very hard to recall what was unusual about Xia Rong when she saw her again.
How did she manage to live alone when I and my younger sister weren't around? Did the concubines in the Xia family try every possible way to frame her?
If so, did Xia Rong's father, Emperor Xia, protect Xia Rong immediately?
Did I really not know that Emperor Xia went to such lengths to bring Xia Rong to my side? Wouldn't it have been a wonderful thing if Xia Rong had grown up by our side?
Moreover, he could try his best to make up for Xia Rong's lack of maternal love. No matter how he thought about it, it was a perfect plan for Xia Rong to live with him.
Oh dear! What's wrong with you now? We sisters have finally managed to get together, why haven't you said a word?
Do you know what? From childhood to adulthood, what I fear most is you sitting there silently without saying a word like this.
Hehe! Little girl, that's because you know that whenever you do something wrong, I'll first give you a good scolding, and then I won't talk to you for a long time.
