Why My Domineering Prince Regretted Filing for Divorce?-Chapter 813 - 615: Yu Mingyue Is Going to Make a Move Against Him!

At this moment, Yu Wenye, who had been silent all along, finally took a deep breath and slowly turned his head.

But just as his gaze was about to reach a point, he stopped.

Then, he turned his head back, continued looking down. Although the hall was brightly lit, illuminating the varied thoughts on everyone’s faces, it could not illuminate the tumultuous emotions in his eyes at this moment, nor the shadow that obscured everything in the end.

Yu Wenquan raised his head again, looking at Pei Xingyuan and Shen Wuzheng standing at the back. At this time, both of them obviously sensed something. Shen Wuzheng remained composed, but Pei Xingyuan’s eyes were flickering with some unease, looking at Yu Wenye and then at Shang Ruyi, who was still silent.

Yu Wenquan said, "Pei Xingyuan, Shen Wuzheng."

The two dared not be slow and immediately walked to the center of the hall, bowing, "We are here!"

Yu Wenquan said, "Mr. Pei, you immediately go to the Ministry of Revenue to allocate the provisions and transport them to Tongguan; Shen Canjun, you also prepare to depart with the army tomorrow, no mistakes allowed."

The two immediately said, "We accept the order!"

At this moment, Shang Ruyi finally moved. She lifted her head, her gaze intensely focused on Yu Mingyue!

As for Yu Mingyue, whether she knew Shang Ruyi would look at her or it was an unconscious glance, their gazes met precisely. Though silence prevailed, Shang Ruyi felt as if a thunderclap had erupted in her heart.

She became entirely awake!

She hadn’t spoken before because she was recalling, recalling what Yu Mingyue said to them when they met Yu Wenqian and Yu Mingyue on the Thousand-step Corridor. Her words, seemingly ambiguous at the time, now seemed profound and meaningful—beware of your opponent, especially the nemesis you know well.

Nemesis!

At that time, she thought Yu Mingyue meant Ashina Shali, after all, the feud between Yu Wenye and the Western Turkic Khan began long ago in Yanmen County, so from the moment they received Princess Qiancheng’s letter, Yu Wenye had been secretly preparing for this battle.

Only now did Shang Ruyi understand that the "nemesis" Yu Mingyue referred to was Wang Shaoji!

That’s why she said that sentence—

Taiyuan is about to become Jiangdu.

Compared to the battle grievance on the battlefield, the grudge between Wang Shaoji and Yu Wenye has been going on for a long time, not to mention how Yu Wenye pinned him on the red steps at Jiangdu Palace, and their fiery opposition in court. Later, Yu Wenye won his Divine Arm Bow, and in the battle of Xingluo Granary, Wang Shaoji secretly plotted against him, nearly causing his downfall there.

The two have long been in a life-and-death situation.

So this time, Wang Shaoji moved north, and everyone thought he would clash with the Yuwen Family in Changa An City using the court’s last four hundred thousand troops. Yet, unexpectedly, he allied with the Turks to take Taiyuan City, which effectively stabbed a knife in the back of Changa An City.

Whether Yu Wenye fought or not, he would face a significant threat!

But this was not the most important thing!

Shang Ruyi had always been puzzled and worried about why someone recommended Shen Wuzheng for the position of Weibei Road Marching Secretary, as if they had foreseen the battle and insisted on involving Shen Wuzheng.

Now it seems that person could only be Yu Mingyue, or Yu Wenqian at her behest, or Yu Dingxing.

And she did this for only one reason—

She targeted Shen Wuzheng as the next blow!

With just this thought, Shang Ruyi suddenly felt her blood run cold, and she couldn’t help but shiver.

Clearly, although managing the plague was a great success, Yu Mingyue bore a grudge against them for not achieving what she wanted—Yu Wenqian’s position as Crown Prince. Though Yu Wenye delivered the final blow, it was hard to strike directly at him because, despite Yu Wenquan’s dissatisfaction, he still relied on his son, who had numerous military merits and a strong presence.

Therefore, Yu Mingyue’s methods changed from throwing stones and preparing gunpowder in the valley to buying up all the medicinal herbs in Central Pass, and then scheming in the recent plague crisis. She evidently adjusted her strategy, proceeding step by step.

Even Shang Ruyi understood that to remove a powerful enemy, the first thing to do was to weaken the forces around him.
