Yun Xiangye was waiting at the gate of Mr. Tao's villa for her uncle and aunt to come out. She thought she would have to wait for a long time, but she never expected that her uncle and aunt had already come out of the villa in a moment.

The tears in my uncle and aunt's eyes had not yet dried, and Ye Li and Ye Zhimiao's faces were full of resentment and resentment.

Yun Xiangye hurried forward to support her aunt and said, "Aunt, have you seen my sister? Why did you leave so soon?"

My aunt said with tears in her eyes, "Yes, I did."

Ye Zhimiao said to Yun Xiangye, "It's just that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is with the Crown Princess, and they only met once. There's nothing more to say."

Yun Xiangye knew the character of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. He was reluctant to call Ye Wanhe "sister" before, not to mention that now that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wanted Ye Wanhe to be the daughter of the Wei family, it was natural that he would just meet her once.

Yun Xiangye could only offer words of comfort: "Uncle, Aunt, since you are staying in Chang'an, we will definitely meet again in the future. You will definitely be able to meet your sister again and have a good conversation."

Ye Li said, "Father and Mother, I have decided to give up business and pursue literature. Starting today, I will go to the academy to study and pass the imperial examinations... I will earn you an imperial decree. Once you have one, you will have the opportunity to enter the palace and meet my sister."

Ye Yuan patted Ye Li's shoulder and said, "Li'er, I'm glad you have this intention. Daddy will definitely help you find a good academy. You should study hard in the future."

Yun Xiangye said, "I'll take you back to West Street first. We'll go to the Su family pawnshop later and ask my cousin Su if he has any connections to get Li Ge'er into a good academy in Chang'an."

Ye Yuandao said, "Cousin Su? But your aunt's son is called Su Zhan?"

Yun Xiangye nodded and said, "It's him."

Ye Yuan whispered, "I haven't seen him for many years. He was very smart when he was young. When you were young, I once joked with your uncle Su about letting Wan He and..."

Ye Yuan realized halfway through what he was about to say that it was inappropriate, so he stopped talking.

Yun Xiangye sent her uncle and aunt back to West Street, and then went to the pawnshop to look for Su Zhan.

There was a pile of wooden boxes in the pawnshop, all of which had big red wedding characters pasted on them. I guess this was Su Zhan's betrothal gift.

Su Zhan saw Yun Xiangye coming and said, "Cousin."

Yun Xiangye smiled when she saw the betrothal gifts and said, "Cousin, have you set a date for your wedding?"

Su Zhan said, "It's settled. It's in late April."

Yun Xiangye exclaimed in surprise, "So early? Doesn't that mean all the relatives in Yongxing City won't be able to make it to Chang'an for the wedding?"

Although Yun Xiangye had long since severed ties with the greedy relatives of the Yun family, those uncles were Su Zhan's biological uncles after all. How could one get married without inviting his uncles to attend?

What's more, Su Zhan's uncles, aunts and other close relatives are also far away in Yongxing City.

Su Zhan smiled helplessly and said, "The Xu family said the wedding shouldn't be delayed too long. I think this is inevitably due to the instructions of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. May, June, and July are not suitable for weddings, so April is the only time to get married. As for Yongxing City, we can only do our best to be polite. It's too late to invite them to the wedding banquet."

Yun Xiangye nodded gently upon hearing this and said, "Cousin, I'd like to ask a favor. Do you know anyone in the Chang'an Academy? Ye Li wants to study and take the imperial examinations. He's studied before, but he never considered taking the imperial examinations."

Su Zhan said, "Wouldn't it be better for you to find the Prince of Ning? The dean of the best academy in Chang'an City, Wanliu Academy, is the senior brother of the Prince of Ning and a former disciple of the great scholar Liu. If you ask Prince Gu for help, Ye Li will definitely be able to enter Wanliu Academy. Entering Wanliu Academy is like having one foot in the officialdom."

"Most of the students at Wanliu Academy will become officials in the future. If you can study at Wanliu Academy, you can look after your classmates in the future."

Yun Xiangye was even more astonished at the power of her father-in-law after hearing Su Zhan's words. "Wanliu Academy is so powerful, half of its students will enter the court. The dean and Prince Ning are brothers in the same school. Doesn't His Majesty have any concerns about Prince Ning?"

Su Zhan chuckled and said, "Prince Ning and Your Majesty grew up together, and Your Majesty treats Prince Ning as your own brother. Moreover, the current Queen Wei is Prince Ning's cousin, and Prince Ning married Your Majesty's sister. This shows that Your Majesty trusts Prince Ning very much, and there is no need to be on guard at all."

Yun Xiangye understood and said, "I see. However, cousin, I'll have to trouble you to find a school for Li Ge'er. Gu Yan and I have already discussed our divorce."

Su Zhan was shocked when he heard Yun Xiangye's words, "Divorce? Why? Was it Gu Yan who proposed the divorce?"

Yun Xiangye said, "No, it was me who proposed the divorce."

Su Zhan looked at Yun Xiangye in confusion and asked, "Why is this? Xiangye, don't be confused. I have helped the eldest princess buy and sell medicinal herbs for many years. I know that the eldest princess is a very good person. It is rare to find such a good mother-in-law in the world.

Besides, Gu Yan is a popular choice among the wealthy women of Chang'an City. Four years ago, five noble ladies in Chang'an City came to propose marriage to Gu Yan one after another. Even if he divorced, there would be many people who wanted to become the Prince of Ning's consort. And you are already 23 years old, so it will be difficult for you to get married again..."

Yun Xiangye said slowly, "Cousin, I'm not thinking of getting married again."

Su Zhan said, "Sister Xiangye, if you divorce today, you will regret it for the rest of your life."

Yun Xiangye chuckled and said, "I won't regret it. If I endure this grievance and live my whole life with Gu Yan with this knot in my heart, then I will regret it.

Seeing that Yun Xiangye was determined to divorce, Su Zhan asked, "Do your uncle and aunt know about this?"
