Upon hearing this, everyone in the Fu family turned around and looked at Yun Xiangye.

Madam Fu Er pulled Fu Anran behind her, her eyes wary of Yun Xiangye, and she kept a smile on her face as she said, "I wonder what the Crown Prince's Consort wants to see Anran about?"

Yun Xiangye noticed the wariness in the eyes of the Fu family members and chuckled, "I saw that Second Miss Fu was beautiful, so I wanted to make some clothes for her..."

Fu Anran was slightly surprised when he heard Yun Xiangye's words, "You want to make clothes for me?"

Fu Qianran chuckled and said, "An Ran would never dare to trouble the Crown Prince's Consort to make clothes."

Madam Fu also smiled and said, "We appreciate the Crown Princess's kindness. We will stop making the clothes and do not bother you any more. We have a lot of chores to attend to at the mansion today, so I'll take my leave now."

After Mrs. Fu Er finished speaking, she took Fu Anran away.

Fu Anran said, "Mother, why don't you and sister let the Crown Prince's Consort make clothes for me? The Crown Prince's Consort is much better than her blind husband. She wanted to make clothes for me because I'm beautiful."

Madam Fu II tapped Fu Anran's head with her finger and said, "Don't forget that you proposed marriage to Prince Ning three years ago. Rumors in Chang'an say that the Yun family is jealous and drove away the maid who had served the prince for many years. If the Yun family can't even tolerate a maid, how can they be so kind as to make clothes for you? Don't be silly, the Yun family might be harboring some evil intentions to deal with you."

Fu Qianran sneered in her heart when she heard what Madam Fu said. Yun Xiangye drove away the maidservant beside Prince Ning, not because she was jealous, but to prevent trouble before it happened.

After all, her sister...wasn't she a maid who climbed into the master's bed?

Yun Xiangye stood there, heard Madam Fu's words clearly, and frowned slightly.

It was true that Fu Anran had proposed marriage to her husband before, so it was indeed presumptuous of her to rashly ask to make clothes for Fu Anran.

Gu Yan held Nuonuo in his arms and walked to Yun Xiangye's side and said, "Let's go back."

Yun Xiangye looked at Gu Yan and said, "I still have a few words to say to you, sister..."

Gu Yan frowned and said, "Aunt Ye will be out of the palace on the third day of the New Year. If you have anything to say to Aunt Ye on the third day of the New Year, there will still be time. Today is the first day of the New Year, and there will be many people going to the East Palace to pay New Year's greetings in the afternoon. I'm afraid Aunt Ye will not have time to talk to you."

After hearing this, Yun Xiangye also felt that what Gu Yan said made sense, so she could only follow Gu Yan back to the princess's mansion.

In Yuhua Hall, after everyone dispersed.

Xie Zhixuan and Princess Chu walked out of the palace together.

Princess Chu sighed and said, "I never thought that Yan'er would marry Xiangye. Life is so unpredictable. Alas, Jing'er was not at the palace banquet just now. I wonder if Jing'er knows about this. He has waited for Yun Xiangye for so many years. How could Yun Xiangye go back on her word and marry Yan'er?"

Xie Zhixuan explained, "Actually, Xiangye didn't marry Yan'er of her own free will. Yan'er was seriously ill, and Xiangye had no choice but to marry him as a token of gratitude for saving his life. She also agreed to the marriage only after Zhirong promised Xiangye that their first child, regardless of gender, would take her surname, Yun."

Princess Chu was surprised and asked, "The first child's surname is Yun. Can you agree to this?"

Xie Zhixuan said, "At that time, not long after I gave birth to Jingru, Gu Yan hid the letter about Yan'er's serious illness and the wedding, and kept it from me. By the time I knew Yan'er was getting married, Xiangye was already pregnant with Nuonuo. How could I let Zhirong go back on her word?

Besides, whether her last name is Yun or Gu, it is just a title after all. Even if Nuonuo's last name is Yun, she is still my precious granddaughter."

Princess Chu sighed softly. She felt sad for Zhao Jing. Zhao Jing had been thinking about Yun Xiangye for years, and had been waiting for her to stop being so determined not to marry. But she hadn't expected that after all these years, Yun Xiangye would go back on her promise and marry someone else...

The Princess of Chu left the palace and returned to the Prince of Chu's Mansion.

After entering the gate of Prince Chu's Mansion, Princess Chu heard the nanny beside her say that when Zhao Jing returned today, the right side of his face was swollen.

Princess Chu hurried to Zhao Jing's room and smelled a strong smell of alcohol as soon as she entered. "Jing'er."

Zhao Jing looked at the Princess of Chu approaching, holding the wine jug in his left hand and raised his eyes and said, "Mother."

Princess Chu saw Zhao Jing's swollen and purple right cheek and asked, "Who hit your face?"

Zhao Jing clenched his hands and said, "Gu Yan!"

Princess Chu frowned and asked, "Why did Yan'er fight...was it because of Xiangye?"

Zhao Jing nodded and said, "Yes."

Princess Chu frowned and said, "Jing'er, now that Xiangye is married, you should let her go. Mother will find you a girl from an aristocratic family with excellent character and appearance. She will definitely be much better than Xiangye."

Zhao Jing said, "No, mother, I only want Xiangye in this life. I only want Xiangye. No matter how good other girls are, they have nothing to do with me."

"Jing'er, are you crazy? She has been married to Yan'er for three years and they already have a daughter."

Princess Chu was surprised and said, "She is now your cousin's wife!"

Zhao Jing frowned slightly and said, "Gu Yan doesn't love Xiangye as much as I do. He only married Xiangye out of necessity because he wanted to bring good luck. He doesn't cherish Xiangye, so why can't I compete with him for her?"

Princess Chu asked, "How do you know Yan'er doesn't like Xiangye? They've been married for three years, how could Gu Yan not like Xiangye?"

Zhao Jingyan said, "Gu Yan told me that ever since Yun Xiangye came to Chang'an, she has been making trouble for him every day, and he feels very upset..."

Zhao Jing looked at Princess Chu and said, "Since Gu Yan is upset, why not return Xiangye to me? I was the one who knew Yun Xiangye first, so Gu Yan should also follow the principle of first come first served."

Princess Chu sighed helplessly, "This Yun Xiangye isn't some stunning beauty, so how could she have caused such a quarrel between you two brothers? Sigh."
