The Abandoned Wife of a Military Family: Your disguise has been exposed again.

Chapter 97 This King will fulfill the promise of that day
After some time apart, Yun seemed to look even better, with a rosy complexion and full of energy.

Li Yaoting was taken aback for a moment, and then a complicated feeling arose in his heart.

Unexpectedly, Yun Shi did not become despondent after leaving him; in fact, she seemed to be doing even better.

He felt a pang of sadness and called out, "Weiwei..."

"Who are you calling?" Yun Wei's expression turned cold.

Li Yaoting was stunned for a moment before he realized what was happening and said awkwardly, "Miss Yun the Second."

"What are you doing making a scene in front of my mansion?" Yun Wei said coldly.

Li Yaoting smiled wryly and said, "You must know about Yu Niang's matter. I heard that Yu Niang was arrested by the government because she had a conflict with the people of the Regent's Palace. Aren't you familiar with the people of the Regent's Palace? Could you put in a good word for us with them and ask them to release Yu Niang, for the sake of our past relationship? Or, could you help me make a connection and let me meet with them?"

"What relationship do we have? Why should I help you?" Yunwei found it extremely ridiculous. Tian'er had just guessed right; Li Yaoting had come for Chen Yuniang.

Li Yaoting remained unfazed by her sarcastic remarks, as she did not deny her familiarity with the people in the Regent's Palace.

His face lit up with joy; it seemed he had found the right person.

Thinking of this, he said in what he thought was a sincere tone, "Yunwei, we were wrong about what happened before. We hope you will be magnanimous and not hold it against us. Besides, everyone encounters difficulties in life. You helped us today, and we will not hesitate to help you in the future if you have any difficulties."

"You're in the wrong?" Yun Wei sneered. "You're the ones who are heartless, ungrateful, and treacherous. How can you say you're in the wrong? Besides, I'm a very petty person. I remember the bad things others do to me for the rest of my life. You should be grateful that I didn't kick you when you were down. You still want me to help you? You're dreaming!"

Li Yaoting's face stiffened. "Don't be too ruthless; it won't do you any good."

"I can be tolerant of anyone, but I won't be tolerant of the Chen and Li families. Get out of here while I'm still in a good mood, or I won't hesitate to unleash my dogs on you," Yun Wei threatened.

Li Yaoting suppressed his anger and said, "Yunwei, I know you still have feelings for me. The reason you're being so cold to me today is because you feel I've let you down. If you're willing to help me with this, I can bring you back into my life..."

Yunwei stared at this scumbag in disbelief.

What nonsense is he talking about?
Just as she was about to retort sarcastically, a voice slowly rang out from the side, "You still have feelings for him? You still want to go back to him?"

Upon hearing the voice, Yun Wei paused, turned her head, and was surprised to see Rong Zhen standing behind her.

When did he come here?

She didn't even notice.

If it were an assassin who wanted to kill her, she would probably be in grave danger.

Li Yaoting's words angered her, causing her to lose focus.

Seeing that she remained silent and only stared at him, Rong Zhen pursed his thin lips, lowered his eyes to look at her, and said, "Hmm? I was right, you have nothing to say?"

Yun Wei snapped out of her daze, rolled her eyes, and pointed at Li Yaoting beside her, saying, "Even if I'm blind, I can't be blind again and again. Do you think I would fall for such scum? Your Highness, please don't judge a gentleman by his own standards."

The woman's words were quite impolite, but Rong Zhen was not displeased; on the contrary, he felt a secret joy.

"It's good that the Yun family isn't acting recklessly." Rong Zhen's lips curled slightly, his tone carrying a hint of relief that was hard for others to detect.

"The Regent? The Regent Prince?" Li Yaoting, standing to the side, looked at the man chatting and laughing with Yun Wei with a shocked expression.

He had seen him from afar and recognized him as the current regent.

But how did he end up here?

Why does he seem so familiar with the Yun family?

When did Yun meet him?

When Rong Zhen turned his gaze to him, his eyes flashed with a chilling light. "Now that you've seen me, why aren't you kneeling?"

Li Yaoting was startled and hurriedly knelt down, "Your subject pays respects to the Regent, may the Regent live a thousand years."

Rong Zhen twirled the jade thumb ring on his thumb, not calling out, but glancing at him before turning away with some disdain, looking back at Yun Wei without saying a word. His eyes seemed to say, "Yun Dongjia's taste is really terrible; how could he have chosen such a person?"

Yunwei inexplicably understood the meaning in his eyes.

Her lips twitched, but she had to admit that she had bad taste; otherwise, she wouldn't have fallen for a scumbag like Li Yaoting.

She coughed lightly and said frankly, "It was a mistake I made when I was young and ignorant. I hope Your Highness will forgive me. By the way, what brings Your Highness here today? Are you feeling better?"

Rong Zhen's expression softened slightly, and there was even a hint of a smile on his lips. "My health has greatly improved, all thanks to the Yun family. Today, I have come to fulfill the promise I made back then."

"A promise?" Yunwei looked at him in surprise.

"Hmm." Rong Zhen nodded, then ordered in a deep voice, "Someone, announce the imperial decree."

Sang Qing immediately nocked an arrow, and with a smile, unfolded the imperial edict in his hand and began to read it aloud.

"By the grace of Heaven, the Emperor decrees: Yun Wei, a daughter of the Yun family, is intelligent, quick-witted, virtuous, and a model for all women in the land. She is hereby granted the title of Princess of Rong'an County. This is the imperial decree!"

What makes a woman a role model for all women?

Yun Wei's lips twitched slightly as she glanced at a certain man.

That's quite an exaggerated excuse.

However, she still reached out and accepted the imperial edict.

Since the other party was willing to offer benefits, she was naturally happy to accept them.

Li Yaoting, who was still kneeling on the ground, felt a surge of shock and disbelief.

He hadn't even recovered from the Regent's appearance at Qingyi Garden and his intimate behavior with Yunwei when he was hit with another heavy blow.

What merit or ability does Yunwei possess to be granted the title of County Princess?

She was a county princess, only slightly lower than a princess, and she received a monthly stipend from the imperial court.

For a moment, Li Yaoting felt a mix of emotions, a complex and agonizing feeling.

Who would have thought that a divorced woman would receive such an honor?
If they hadn't divorced back then, and Yunwei had been granted the title of County Princess, wouldn't that have been an honor for the Li family? Moreover, given Yunwei's relationship with the Regent, why would the Li family have any worries about not having the opportunity to rise to become a prominent family in the capital?

Cultivating a connection with the Regent's Palace is far more useful than attaching oneself to the Chen family.

For a moment, Li Yaoting was filled with remorse, feeling as if he had picked up a sesame seed but lost a watermelon.

But it's also Yunwei's fault.

She kept it so well hidden, not revealing at all that she knew the Regent and that they had a close relationship.

He wouldn't divorce her if she revealed even the slightest hint of it.

Li Yaoting was furious.

However, with the Regent right in front of him, and the opportunity so rare, he had no time to investigate Yunwei's concealment any further.

He had to find a way to get noticed by the regent and make him remember him.

Thinking of this, he said loudly, "Congratulations, Miss Yun! Congratulations, Miss Yun!"

Hearing him speak suddenly, Yunwei realized he was still there, and her face showed undisguised disgust for him. "Why aren't you leaving yet?"

Li Yaoting's face stiffened, looking extremely embarrassed. How dare he leave before the Regent had even called him?

He ignored Yun Wei and looked at Rong Zhen with a respectful expression, saying, "I am truly grateful to have met the Regent here today; I could die without regret."

Upon hearing this, Rong Zhen finally looked at him and asked, "Why do you say such a thing, Earl of Jing'an?"
