Yun Xiangye, while boating on a spring day, lost her footing and fell into the lake. She was rescued by Gu Yan, a wealthy young master who was recuperating in Jiangnan.
To repay his great kin...
Ye Wanhe said, "You're not familiar with the Ye family's cloth business. Do you need His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to ask you personally before you admit it?"
Wei Yu's expression was filled with disdain for Ye Wanhe as she said, "I really don't know what the Ye Family Cloth Shop is... Your Highness, I am the consort of the Prince of Chu, your cousin's wife. Are you planning to set up a private court and resort to lynching me?"
Ye Wanhe laughed, gently stroking her belly with her hand. Without changing her expression, she looked at Wei Xi and said, "Oh, my stomach hurts so much. Maybe it's because I heard that the Ye family's cloth shop was smashed that I got a miscarriage... If anything happens to the child in my belly, do you think Wang Tao would still be willing to be slaughtered by his entire clan to protect you so loyally?
Wei Xi was extremely angry. How dare Ye Wanhe, that lowly slave, be so arrogant as she was just lucky enough to be pregnant with the dragon grandson?
Yun Xiangye smiled slightly when she saw her sister's behavior. Although this trick was not very frank, it was indeed useful.
Wei Xi was so angry that her hands were shaking. The smug faces of Ye Wanhe and Yun Xiangye were really disgusting.
Yun Xiangye said from the side, "Prince Consort of Chu, I advise you to admit it. Sending people to smash and destroy things is not a big deal. Just kneel down and apologize to my uncle and aunt, and compensate the cloth shop with 5,000 taels of silver, and the matter will be over. If anything happens to the Crown Princess' unborn child, you won't be able to bear the consequences..."
Wei Xi said coldly, "Who are your uncle and aunt? Are they worthy enough to make this prince's consort kneel down and apologize to them? Yun Xiangye, you lowly merchant girl, how can you have the right to speak here in the Eastern Palace?"
Ye Wanhe said, "Ms. Yun is a guest of the Eastern Palace, so she is naturally qualified to speak here. But you, on the other hand, are still unwilling to give up until you see the Yellow River. Someone, go and summon the imperial physician."
