“This is the dress that the Crown Prince especially asked Madam Tang to embroider,” Wang Deshun said as he gestured for someone to unfold the dress. In the next moment, a colorful dress was revealed before everyone’s eyes.
Yu Xiaoxiao’s cheeks turned red with excitement immediately. She stomped her feet and said shyly, “The Crown Prince is really considerate. He’s too good to me.”
Yu Feng stroked his beard and said with a sigh, “That’s right. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is too considerate. Xiaoxiao, you’re really lucky that the Crown Prince cares about you so much.”
Madam Shang hurriedly said loudly, “It’s because Xiaoxiao is sensible and considerate. Back then, among so many noble ladies, the Empress took a liking to Xiaoxiao with just a glance. Xiaoxiao is really blessed.”
Since Madam Shang had the support of her precious daughter, she naturally would not let go of the chance to show off.
‘Those b*tches should take a good look and see clearly that our backer is the Eastern Palace!’
Yu Yunxi only felt bored when she looked at Madam Shang and the others showing off like a peacock displaying its feathers. She thought that she would be able to see something interesting if she stayed.
At the same time, Yu Xiaoxiao looked at Yu Yunxi from the corners of her eyes. She mistook the disinterested expression on Yu Yunxi’s face as discomfort. She raised her chin and said in a slightly smug tone, “I really didn’t expect the Crown Prince to send such a precious dress over.”
Then, Yu Xiaoxiao bit her lip, pretending to be nervous before she said,
“However, Cousin’s status is much nobler than mine. Will Cousin be unhappy if I wear such a beautiful dress tomorrow?”
Yu Xiaoxiao looked as though she was afraid that Yu Yunxi would be jealous of her.
Yu Yunxi could not help but laugh upon hearing Yu Xiaoxiao’s words. She tried to endure it, but it was too funny.
‘Would I be jealous because of that dress? Although the provincial governor’s wife is talented, the dress is still lacking…’
Upon seeing Yu Yunxi’s reaction, Yu Xiaoxiao assumed that Yu Yunxi was forcing herself to laugh. She continued to say in a low voice, “Why don’t I give this dress to you, Cousin? You have a nobler status so you’re more suitable for this dress than me…”
Old Madam Zhou hurriedly said, “Nonsense! Xiaoxiao, the Crown Prince cares about you so he specially sent the dress to you. How can you give it away?”
Then, Old Madam Zhou turned to Yu Yunxi and said coldly, “Since you’re the Eldest Princess, you should behave as such. If you make a fuss over a dress, you’ll only be embarrassing the imperial family and us.”
Yu Yunxi’s smile widened after Old Madam Zhou finished speaking. Then, she said, “Are you done speaking? You’re right. This dress is really suitable for Yu Xiaoxiao. I wish her good luck tomorrow.”
Then, Yu Yunxi turned to Meng Xia and Qian Qing, looking bored, “Qian Qing, Meng Xia, let’s go. It’s boring.”
Meng Xia and Qian Qing nodded in agreement.
“Yes, Eldest Princess.’
Seeing how unaffected Yu Yunxi was, Yu Xiaoxiao was furious. She said through gritted teeth, “Cousin, you’re the Eldest Princess, but the Crown Prince didn’t give you anything…”
At the same time, Yu Xiaoxiao thought to herself, ‘Mother must be wrong. How could the Crown Prince be interested in Yu Yunxi? If he really intends to make Yu Yunxi his Crown Princess, he wouldn’t have ignored Yu Yunxi like this.’
While Yu Xiaoxiao felt certain that her words would embarrass and humiliate Yu Yunxi, Wang Deshun, who was standing at the side, could no longer endure it. He said with a straight face, “Commandery Princess, did you misunderstand something? His Royal Highness the Crown Prince sent this dress to the Eldest Princess.”
“What?! This dress is for Yu Yunxi?!”
“Wang Deshun, are you lying to me? The Crown Prince definitely sent this dress to me!” Yu Xiaoxiao said loudly.
Wang Deshun’s expression turned cold immediately. His tone was no longer as friendly as before as he said, “His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had repeatedly instructed me to personally give this dress to the Eldest Princess.”
Yu Xiaoxiao looked like a shrew as she questioned angrily, “Then what about
“I’m sorry, Commandery Princess. The Crown Prince did not prepare a gift for you. Perhaps you can get someone else to buy you a gift,” Wang Deshun said expressionlessly as he thought to himself, ‘In other words, don’t pester the Crown Prince. You’re not qualified.’
“Impossible! The Crown Prince must have prepared a gift for me! In the past, he would send something to the King of Zhenbei’s Residence!” Yu Xiaoxiao retorted as she raised her chin.
‘The Crown Prince cares about me so much. There’s no way he would have forgotten about my gift! Most importantly, it’s impossible for Yu Yunxi, that b*tch, to receive a gift while I didn’t receive one!’
Wang Deshun rolled his eyes when he saw Yu Xiaoxiao in denial.
‘In the past, the Crown Prince had only sent gifts to her because the Eldest Princess was not around. After all, she was still useful at that time. Otherwise, with how stupid she is, how could she receive special treatment from the Crown Prince?’
Wang Deshun said coldly, “Commandery Princess, this is the Crown Prince’s intention. If you have any questions, you can go to the Eastern Palace and ask him yourself.”
Meanwhile, Yu Feng protected Concubine Wu and the child in her stomach as he kept an eye on the situation. Seeing how rude Yu Xiaoxiao was behaving toward Wang Deshun, he was so frightened that he trembled. He quickly called out sternly, “Xiaoxiao!”
Immediately after that, Concubine Wu patted Yu Feng’s back to comfort him as she said, “Second Master, Xiaoxiao was probably too sad so she spoke without thinking. Don’t be angry.”
Although it seemed like Concubine Wu was speaking up for Yu Xiaoxiao, in actuality, she was mocking Yu Xiaoxiao.
As expected, Yu Xiaoxiao behaved like a cat whose tail was stepped on. She sneered and said, “Sad? You’re the one who’s sad! Also, you’re just a concubine.
How dare you stand next to my father and refer to me using my name?”
‘This b*tch thinks she can take this opportunity to trample on me! Who does she think she is?’
Yu Feng waved his hand and said impatiently, “Xiaoxiao, Concubine Wu is just concerned about you. Why are you so angry? What happened tonight was a misunderstanding. Hurry up and apologize to your cousin and Eunuch Wang.”
A seed of resentment toward Yu Xiaoxiao had taken root in Yu Feng’s heart at this moment. Initially, he had been pleased, thinking that the Crown Prince had sent Yu Xiaoxiao gifts. Unexpectedly, the gift was meant for Yu Yunxi. He felt as though he had been humiliated. At this moment, he only wanted to deal with this matter quickly and not embarrass himself any further..
