Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Madam Shang pursed her lips as a grim expression appeared on her face. In the past, before Yu Yunxi returned, the Eastern Palace would usually send a carriage over to pick Yu Yunxi up for such an event. However, things changed after Yu Yunxi’s return.

‘Are the Crown Prince and the Empress truly so heartless toward Xiaoxiao? In the past, they treated Xiaoxiao well because of her relationship with the King of Zhenbei, but now that the King of Zhenbei’s daughter has returned, they’re going to carelessly abandon Xiaoxiao?’

When Madam Shang thought about this, she felt like there was a poisonous snake in her heart that wanted to bite everyone. However, seeing how upset Yu Xiaoxiao was, she could only suppress her anger and pretend to be calm as she said reassuringly, “Xiaoxiao, don’t think too much about this matter. After all, Yu Yunxi is the Crown Prince’s cousin sister. It’s normal for him to send someone to pick her up. Although you’re engaged to the Crown Prince, you’re still not married yet. It’s not appropriate for unrelated men and women to have so much interaction. The Crown Prince is actually thinking about your reputation.”

“Really? It seems like the Crown Prince really has me in his heart…” Yu Yunxi said shyly with red cheeks.

“Alright, let’s get into the carriage. Don’t let the Empress Dowager and the

Empress wait.”

“Okay.”

Yu Xiaoxiao stepped on the back of a servant and quickly got into the carriage after glaring at the three Kang sisters.

‘I have such a noble status, and yet I have to bring these three country bumpkins with me. How unlucky!’

On the other side.

While Yu Yunxi and Yu Shuangshuang sat in the carriage, Yu Shuangshuang kept sneaking glances at Yu Yunxi. After a while, she said, “The Eldest Princess seems to be in a good mood today.”

Yu Yunxi raised an eyebrow as she looked at Yu Shuangshuang. Instead of addressing her as ‘Sister’ like Yu Xiaoxiao did, Yu Shuangshuang addressed her as ‘Eldest Princess’. It was clear that Yu Shuangshuang was a person who knew etiquette.

Yu Yunxi smiled slightly and asked in return, “Oh, why do you say that?”

“Ever since you got into the carriage, there’s been a slight smile on your face,” Yu Shuangshuang said in a low voice.

Yu Yunxi:

‘I’m so obvious…’

Yu Yunxi thought about Luo Xiuran, Qian Qing, and the others who were riding in the carriage behind and wondered why they did not remind her to adjust her expression.

‘Forget it. After all, it’s true that I’m in a good mood. How can I not be in a good mood now that I’ve recovered my memories?’

Although Yu Yunxi still did not know what the Xiao family’s goal was and how many members of the Xiao family were hiding around her, she felt like a complete person now that she had recovered her memories. She no longer had to feel guilty because she could not remember Feng Yili and was unable to respond to his feelings.

Yu Yunxi leaned back and said nonchalantly, “That’s right. Something good happened so I’m naturally in a good mood.”

Although Yu Shuangshuang was curious about what made Yu Yunxi so happy, she knew very well she had no right to ask due to her status. As such, she tactfully stayed silent about this matter. Instead, she said, “Thank you for taking me to the Temple of Eternal Peace, Eldest Princess.”

Contrary to Yu Shuangshuang’s expectations, Yu Yunxi asked in return, “Isn’t this what you want?”

Yu Yunxi’s gaze was cold and piercing as she stared at Yu Shuangshuang.

Yu Shuangshuang stiffened immediately.

Yu Yunxi did not give Yu Shuangshuang a chance to speak and continued to say, “Previously, you asked your maidservant to send me a gift. Do you dare to say that you have no intention of borrowing my might?”

“Eldest Princess, I didn’t mean to scheme against you. I…”

Yu Shuangshuang was just about to kneel when Yu Yunxi raised her leg and pressed it down on Yu Shuangshuang’s knee, looking domineering. Then, she said coldly, “If I were an idiot, I would’ve died long ago. I don’t care if people have ulterior motives, but I don’t like being used. If you want something, be honest. If I find out that you have such crooked thoughts again, I won’t let you go.”

Yu Shuangshuang’s forehead was covered with a layer of sweat at this moment.

She took a deep breath and said firmly, “Thank you for your reminder, Eldest princess. I understand. I won’t nave sucn tnougnts In tne future.”

After a beat, Yu Shuangshuang asked tentatively, “B-but there’s something I don’t understand. If you knew I had ulterior motives, why did you help me?”

Yu Yunxi said carelessly, “Mm, that’s because I feel like causing trouble for Yu Xiaoxiao and her mother.”

Yu Shuangshuang: .

‘The Eldest Princess is really honest. She’s so honest that I really don’t know what to say in response…’

Yu Yunxi had no interest in listening to Yu Shuangshuang’s response. She yawned tiredly and said before dozing off, “Wake me up when we arrive at the

Temple of Eternal Peace.”

Last night, Yu Yunxi had to deal with the ‘haunting’ at the bottom of the dry well so she did not sleep well. As such, she planned to catch up on her sleep.

At the city gates.

The Emperor stayed in the imperial palace, but the Empress Dowager, the Empress, imperial consorts, princes, and princesses were all present.

Although the city gates were not their destination, many ministers and their family members alighted from their respective carriages to pay their respects to the Empress Dowager, the Empress, and the Crown Prince.

At this moment, the Empress Dowager was sitting in her carriage. She narrowed her eyes unhappily. After waiting for such a long time, she still did not see the person she wanted to see. Finally, she asked the palace maid next to her unhappily, “Where’s Yu Yunxi? Why didn’t she come to pay her respects to me? Don’t tell me she has yet to arrive!”

The palace maid quickly got out of the carriage. After looking around for a while, she finally saw a carriage at the corner with the emblems of the King of Zhenbei’s Residence and the Eldest Princess’ Residence. Needless to say, the only person with these two emblems on the carriage could only be Yu Yunxi.

The palace maid returned to the carriage and said, “Empress Dowager, the Eldest Princess has already arrived at the city gates, but it seems like she has no intention of getting off the carriage.”

“How presumptuous!” the Empress Dowager said with a dark expression on her face.

‘I’m the Empress Dowager. Even the Crown Prince came to pay his respects to me earlier, but Yu Yunxi dares to be so unruly. She’s even more annoying than Changning back then!’

Seeing that Empress Dowager’s expression was not good, the palace maid asked tentatively, “Empress Dowager, do you need me to summon the Eldest Princess here?”

The Empress Dowager suppressed her anger and said, “No need. The Emperor Emeritus dotes on her so much. He probably has people watching her. If I make things difficult for her, I’ll definitely have to explain myself when I return to the imperial palace. It won’t be too late for me to teach her a lesson when we’re at the Temple of Eternal Peace.”

‘The Emperor Emeritus punished Yu Yunxi to kneel yesterday. By all appearances, it seems like he did not favor Yu Yunxi. However, I know very well how much the Emperor Emeritus loved that dead b*tch from the Xiao family. No matter what Changning did, he’d always support her. Needless to say, this kind of treatment also extends to Yu Yunxi…’

The Empress Dowager knew that the Emperor Emeritus only punished Yu Yunxi so others would not target Yu Yunxi so much.

‘Yu Yunxi has the blood of the sl*t from the Xiao family running through her veins. No matter what, I want her to suffer a fate worse than death!’ the Empress Dowager thought to herself as her gaze turned venomous.

The palace maid knew that the Empress Dowager was in a foul mood, and she could not help but shiver.

After a moment, the Empress Dowager asked darkly, “Who else hasn’t paid their respects to me?”

‘There shouldn’t be anyone. In the capital, only that b*tch Yu Yunxi dares to be so bold!’

Unexpectedly, the palace maid said with trepidation, “Empress Dowager, the, the King of Youshan hasn’t paid respects to you yet…
