Why My Domineering Prince Regretted Filing for Divorce?-Chapter 569 - 470: The Result You Want

Shang Ruyi didn’t expect that she would fall asleep just by lying down fully clothed, resting in Yu Wenye’s arms.

When she woke up, it was already the next morning.

When Tushere gently stroked her arm to wake her up, half of her soul lingered in the rare peaceful dream. She opened her eyes, dazedly met Tushere’s concerned gaze, and after a long time, heard her voice as if coming from a distance—

"...Miss, Miss, it’s time to get up."

"... ..."

"Miss, it’s getting late."

"... ..."

"After a while, elder brother and the others will set off. Aren’t you going to see them off?"

Elder brother?!

These three words pricked her like a needle, painless yet noticeable. Shang Ruyi suddenly came to her senses and hurriedly sat up. But because she got up too quickly, she was still a bit disoriented and almost fell off the bed. Fortunately, Tushere supported her in time.

Tushere quickly said, "Miss, be careful, getting up too quickly causes dizziness."

"... ..."

Shang Ruyi barely managed to steady herself, looking awkwardly at her. Then she looked down at herself, realizing the day had already broken. Sunshine streamed through the window, illuminating the room, and she hadn’t changed her clothes, sleeping all night in Yu Wenye’s arms, which made her blush.

Seeing her like this, Tushere pursed her lips with a smile and said, "I know, Miss has been too tired."

Shang Ruyi glared at her, her face turning even redder.

Still, she muttered unconsciously, "How did I fall asleep?"

Even though she didn’t attend yesterday’s banquet, there were still many things to do, like waiting for reports from subordinates about the aftermath of yesterday’s battle, inquiring about the situation on the enemy front after Xue Xian’s retreat, and even sending more men to chase the two escaping guards, if they indeed left Fufeng.

But she, unexpectedly, fell asleep like this...

Turning back, she glanced at the embrace she had nestled in all night, seemingly understanding why she fell asleep. It was indeed a rare moment of tranquility these days—Yu Wenye was still asleep, but at this time, his complexion had almost returned to normal, his breathing more even and steady. Shang Ruyi reached out and touched his cheek, realizing the fever had completely subsided. He was visibly better than yesterday.

She couldn’t help but smile and softly said, "That’s great."

Tushere also smiled and said, "Wo Xue has already gone to prepare the medicine as per Miss’s instructions yesterday. It will be ready soon for the young master to drink. After two more doses, he’ll be fully recovered."

"Yes."

Shang Ruyi nodded with a smile of happiness. 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢

Then she turned to Tushere and asked, "You just mentioned elder brother—"

Tushere immediately replied, "Right, elder brother and the others had already decided yesterday that they would set off for Daxing early this morning. Seeing it was getting late, I came to call Miss. Does Miss want to see them off?"

"Of course."

As Shang Ruyi spoke, she immediately got up from the bed. Tushere had already prepared a warm towel for her washing up. After freshening up, she changed into a different outfit. Just as she finished tidying up, Tushere remembered something and said softly, "Oh, Miss—"

Before she finished speaking, there were two knocks on the door from outside.

Tushere immediately asked, "Who is it?"

A calm and gentle voice from outside replied, "It’s me."

Upon hearing this voice, Shang Ruyi was startled but quickly composed herself, giving Tushere a look. Tushere hurriedly stepped forward to open the door, where a tall, graceful figure stood basking in sunlight at the entrance, smiling at them.

It was Yu Wenqian.

Shang Ruyi, somewhat surprised, said, "Elder brother, why are you here?"

Yu Wenqian smiled and said, "We’re about to set off for Daxing, and before leaving, I wanted to see you and Feng Chen again."

With that, he stepped inside.

After what he had said yesterday, every time Shang Ruyi saw him, she felt uneasy, perhaps a little guilty, and mixed with that guilt, there seemed to be a more complex worry.

Yu Wenqian came in, appearing even more at ease than when he said those words yesterday. He slowly walked into the inner chamber, stood by the bed and observed Yu Wenye’s complexion for a moment, then nodded in satisfaction, "His complexion is much better than yesterday. After another two doses, he should recover completely."

Shang Ruyi said, "Yes."

Yu Wenqian smiled, "This way, my sister-in-law can feel relieved."

"... ..."

Shang Ruyi paused and said, "Feng Chen’s illness came mysteriously. Before he fell ill, someone had already searched out all the herbs that could cure this disease, which makes this situation even stranger. If these matters aren’t clarified, I can’t be completely at ease."

Yu Wenqian raised an eyebrow slightly, turned back and glanced at her.

After a moment of silence, he smiled and said, "Yesterday on the battlefield, Xue Xian suffered a great defeat and fled. My sister-in-law not only went against the ancient teaching of ’do not pursue a cornered enemy,’ but continued to chase the remnants. At that time, it was evident that my sister-in-law is not someone who tolerates grievances or losses. Hearing what you said today, indeed, it is true."

Shang Ruyi said, "Feng Chen is my husband. Having suffered such hardship, how can I let it go so easily?"

Saying this, she looked at Yu Wenqian, "As his elder brother, you should think the same way, shouldn’t you?"

Yu Wenqian paused for a moment and said, "Of course."

"... ..."

"Originally, I wanted to stay a bit longer, to clarify some matters. However—"

Shang Ruyi’s heart trembled.

She instinctively looked up at Yu Wenqian, but noticed he also glanced at her. Those clear eyes seemed to see through many things in an instant, then he smiled at her. But he didn’t continue what he was about to say.

This time, it was Shang Ruyi who hesitated.

She softly asked, "But what?"

"... ..."

Yu Wenqian did not answer the question but instead suddenly said, "Sister-in-law, in last night’s battle, except for those who fell into the Little Forest River with no remains, and those who fled after defeat, you at least annihilated eighty thousand Longxi Army troops."

"... ..."

"This is quite a fatal blow to Xue Xian."

"... ..."

"Just like before, when he killed eighty thousand Fufeng troops, which caused Fufeng’s morale to plummet, the Longxi Army will now also start to lose morale. And at this time, if Xue Xian wants to rally his forces again, he must re-establish his authority within the army and boost morale through another battle. And this battle—"

At this point, he looked down at Shang Ruyi, "Will be a fight to the death for Fufeng."

"...!"

Shang Ruyi’s heart shook.

Thinking carefully, it indeed made sense. Xue Xian couldn’t possibly admit defeat just like that. Considering his temperament and the remaining troops, he would and must rally his forces for another decisive battle with Fufeng. However, after last night’s battle, so many things happened and she relished the rare tranquility, sleeping all night in Yu Wenye’s arms, without having the leisure to consider what to do next.

Unexpectedly, Yu Wenqian seemed relaxed and composed, but had already thought through all these matters calmly.

Shang Ruyi looked at him, "Elder brother..."

Yu Wenqian said, "But now, Feng Chen has gotten the right medicine, and I believe he will recover soon. So, the battles of Fufeng won’t require anyone else to interfere."

"... ..."

"You will get the outcome you desire...the result."
