Yun Xiangye returned to the Princess's Mansion and planned to go to the Garden of Ten Thousand Flowers to pick up Nuonuo first.

As soon as she entered the Garden of Ten Thousand Flowers, Yun Xiangye heard the soft laughter.

Yun Xiangye walked over and saw the eldest princess holding Nuonuo and playing on the swing.

"Mom." When Nuonuo saw Yun Xiangye, she wanted to get off the swing.

Xie Zhixuan picked up Nuonuo and walked over to Yun Xiangye. "I thought you wouldn't come back so early. Why don't you play with your sister for a while longer?"

Yun Xiangye whispered, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said that the palace has strict rules and regulations, and palace maids are not allowed to leave the palace."

Xie Zhixuan frowned slightly and said, "Since the prince has already agreed, how can he go back on his word?"

Xie Zhixuan dared to say it out loud, but Yun Xiangye didn't. She could only take Nuonuo back from Xie Zhixuan.

Little Nuonuo threw herself into Yun Xiangye's arms, "Mother."

Yun Xiangye bowed to Xie Zhixuan and said, "Mother, we will take our leave first."

Xie Zhixuan nodded.

As Yun Xiangye was leaving with little Nuonuo in her arms, she ran into Gu Yan's father on the road. Yun Xiangye hurriedly bowed and said, "Father-in-law."

Gu Ling glanced displeasedly at Yun Xiangye and the little Nuonuo in her arms, then replied in a deep voice, "Yeah."

Yun Xiangye bent back and took two steps back, then hurriedly left with Xiao Nuonuo in her arms.

After Yun Xiangye left the Garden of Ten Thousand Flowers, she recalled the look in King Ning's eyes and sighed softly.

If it was just as she expected, Gu Yan's father must also look down on her and Nuonuo, otherwise why would he look at her with such an unhappy look?

Yun Xiangye touched Xiao Nuonuo's head and asked, "Does Nuonuo like your previous home?"

Xiao Nuonuo said in a baby voice, "I like mother."

Yun Xiangye chuckled and said, "Mother likes Nuonuo too. She likes Nuonuo the most."

She said in a soft and milky voice, "I love mother the most."

Yun Xiangye kissed Nuonuo on the little face.

In the Garden of Ten Thousand Flowers.

Gu Ling said to Xie Zhixuan unhappily, "What does Yan'er think of you? He and his wife don't take care of the child themselves, and you have to take care of him?"

Xie Zhixuan smiled and said, "Are you so unhappy and sullen because of this? Don't scare Nuonuo."

Gu Ling said: "If I had known that your thoughts would be on Yan'er and his family when he came back, I wouldn't have urged him to come back."

Xie Zhixuan chuckled and said, "What are you talking about? Isn't it good for the family to be together? Nuonuo is much more obedient and gentle than Jingru. Jingru is really too naughty, while Nuonuo is quiet and gentle. She should be more like her mother."

"Slapping your husband four times in just one month is considered gentle and quiet?" Gu Ling laughed.

Xie Zhixuan asked, "Why did you get beaten again?"

Gu Ling said, "On the first day of the new year, we were beaten at the gate of Fushou Hall. Wei Zhan's wife said some harsh words, and my mother ruthlessly drove them out..."

Xie Zhixuan listened to Gu Ling's explanation of the whole story and frowned, saying, "It's a pity they thought of divorcing my wife and making her a concubine."

At night, in Qingfeng Garden.

Yun Xiang Ye Zhi waited until three quarters past midnight but Gu Yan still didn't come back, so she decided not to wait for him anymore. After coaxing Nuonuo to sleep, she also planned to go to bed.

It was almost midnight when Yun Xiangye felt some movement around her. She opened her eyes and looked at Gu Yan.

Gu Yan handed Yun Xiangye a painted painting of a koi carp and auspicious clouds and said, "Don't get angry unnecessarily. I spent two hours on this. How about embroidering it on the fabric?"

Yun Xiangye took Gu Yan's painting and said, "It's just passable."

Gu Yan climbed onto the bed and carried Nuonuo inside. He then held Yun Xiangye in his arms and said, "Is that too much? Do you know that if this painting were sold outside, it wouldn't be difficult to sell it for a thousand taels of silver?"

Yun Xiangye looked at Gu Yan's painting and said, "If I embroider it, your painting will definitely be much more brilliant."

Gu Yan put the painting aside and said, "Well, your embroidery is definitely better than mine. Don't be upset about Junior Sister Lin anymore."

Yun Xiangye said, "Who's angry about Junior Sister Lin? I haven't been angry for a long time, and there's no need to be angry..."

Yun Xiangye didn't want to get angry at Gu Yan's sisters for defending him anymore.

Even if Gu Yan wasn't tired, she was tired.

In the final analysis, Gu Yan has always been protecting the reputation of other girls, but is unwilling to put himself in her shoes and think about her situation. It is because he does not care about himself in his heart.

As early as the day he came to Chang'an, when Gu Yancai told him his identity, Yun Xiangye already understood that Gu Yan had no heart for her. Since he didn't have her, why should he be angry about this matter anymore...

After getting the fake death drug, she can go back to Jiangnan with her sister and never return to Chang'an, so she won't have to care about Gu Yan anymore.

As for the Yunxiangye embroidery workshop in Chang'an City, she still wanted to keep it open.

Firstly, it could confuse Gu Yan and make him think that she would return to Chang'an after going to Jiangnan. Secondly, it was at least a sum of money, and she felt at ease letting Run'er take care of it.

Seeing that Yun Xiangye had really stopped making a fuss, Gu Yan whispered, "Wait a few days longer with Junior Sister, and you'll realize she's not the kind of person you think she is, someone who would steal someone else's husband."

Yun Xiangye didn't want to say much to Gu Yan. Lin Bolan was indeed not the type to steal someone else's husband, but it was also true that she looked down on her and felt that she had wronged Gu Yan.

Inside the East Palace.

Ye Wanhe held onto the wall and walked into the maid's room, where she saw that her clothes had been packed into the luggage.

Guyu placed her hands on her belly and said to Ye Wanhe, "Wanhe, you are no longer the head maid of the Eastern Palace. Naturally, you have no right to live in this room anymore. You can only live in the Tongqu Room. Don't blame me, this is all the rule of the Eastern Palace."
