Ye Junfei looked at her with deep, unfathomable eyes.
He had always known she was smart, but now he realized she was even smarter and more insightful than he had imagined.
He took the medicine from her and applied it to her wound, saying calmly, "With me here, nothing will go wrong."
"Can you tell me why you decided to take action today?"
He had already thought of everything Lin Xiuyan could think of, and in fact, he had made some preparations.
Lin Xiuyan replied, "It's very simple. On the way here, Qingwan told me that the Prince's mansion has a complicated population and many strange and unsavory characters."
"I'm averse to trouble and don't want to deal with them one by one, so I might as well let the people in the Prince's Mansion fully understand the destructive power of a playboy."
"Although I come from a humble background, I have a big temper and I'm very bold. I even dare to hit a princess. Who among them has a bigger face than a princess?"
Ye Junfei: "..."
He truly hadn't expected her to think so far ahead about this matter.
He said softly, "With me here, no one in the Prince's mansion can bully you."
Lin Xiuyan raised an eyebrow: "We are married by contract. What is a contract? It only becomes a contract if it is useful. If it is useless, it is worthless."
"As long as the young master can protect my parents, I can handle things properly here at the Prince's Mansion... Ouch, that hurts!"
She felt that with the way he applied the medicine to her, it was just a sprain before, but if he pressed on it again, it might break!
Ye Junfei said calmly, "I'll try to be gentle."
After he finished speaking, he leaned over and gently blew on her wrist.
The medicine for treating the injury already contained some cooling herbs such as mint, and when he blew on it, she couldn't tell whether her hands were hot or cold.
She felt the gentle breeze on her skin, carrying an indescribable sensation, seeping into her heart and lungs through her pores.
It hurts, itches, itches, and feels sore.
This feeling is even more unbearable than being roasted over a fire.
She tried to pull her hand back, but Ye Junfei held it tightly: "Don't move!"
Lin Xiuyan wasn't the type to be afraid of pain, but she really couldn't handle having her wrist massaged like that.
She bit her lip hard, but still couldn't help but moan softly, "It hurts, be gentler, be more careful!"
Ye Junfei recalled the scene when he pressed her ankle last time, and her voice became a little hoarse: "I was already very gentle."
Lin Xiuyan sensed that he had ill intentions and threatened, "If you keep doing this, I'll bite you!"
"Take as much as you want." Ye Junfei's eyes were slightly red.
Wu Dao, acting on the orders of the Prince of Pingnan, summoned Ye Junfei to come out and entertain the guests. Upon hearing the commotion outside, he blushed not only his face but also his neck.
If he dared to go in and interrupt them at this moment, he highly suspected that he would be chopped down by his young master.
So he went to report to the Prince of Pingnan: "The Crown Prince and Princess have already retired for the night. If Your Highness needs to find the Crown Prince, please go to him yourself!"
He finished speaking and ran away in a flash.
Prince Pingnan: "..."
He was furious. The people around Ye Junfei were just like him, with no manners whatsoever.
He turned to Princess Pingnan and said, "Such a big thing happened today, and this unfilial son actually went straight into the bridal chamber and won't come out!"
"How should we handle the aftermath? Who will entertain all the guests in the courtyard?"
He grew angrier as he spoke: "No, I must go and drag that rebellious son out!"
Princess Pingnan stopped him, saying, "Don't you know Xiu'er's temperament?"
"He's getting married tonight, let him be!"
The Prince of Pingnan was just saying that; if he were to rush into the bridal chamber tonight for Ye Junfei's wedding, he would be so embarrassed that he would die.
He gritted his teeth and said, "I will break his legs tomorrow!"
Princess Pingnan seized the opportunity to sow discord among him: "The young master has always been like this, Your Highness, please don't be angry with him."
"But this new bride comes from a rather low social class, and she doesn't even know basic manners. The young master hasn't even offered her a toast yet, but he's already keeping her in the room."
When the Prince of Pingnan recalled how he had been coerced by Lin Xiuyan into dealing with Princess Anle earlier that day, he felt a strong dislike for Lin Xiuyan.
He said coldly, "If it weren't for the imperial decree bestowing the marriage, she, a mere merchant's daughter, would never have been able to marry into the royal family!"
Hearing their conversation, Ye Qingwan said, "If Father dislikes your sister-in-law, Princess Anle hasn't gone far yet. It's not too late to invite her back."
Prince Pingnan: "..."
He was so choked by Ye Qingwan's words that he couldn't say a word.
He glared at Ye Qingwan, and she said calmly, "If Father feels uncomfortable, I will go and invite the princess back to be the Crown Prince's consort."
After she finished speaking, she called out, "Green Willow, lead my horse to the gate of the Prince's Palace."
She turned to leave.
The Prince of Pingnan knew that his eldest daughter was a woman of her word!
All he could say was, "Come back!"
Ye Qingwan turned to look at him, and he took a deep breath and said, "This is none of your business, go back to your room and rest!"
Ye Qingwan's expression was cold: "Does Father acknowledge that Lin Xiuyan is the Crown Prince's consort?"
The Prince of Pingnan did not answer, but Ye Qingwan said in a low voice, "If Father acknowledges her identity, please do not say that she is not worthy of marrying into the Prince's mansion in the future."
"Although she came from a merchant family, it was my father who personally led the matchmaker to the Lin family to propose marriage, and it was my brother who personally brought her back to marry him."
"Although the marriage was arranged somewhat hastily, it was done according to the normal procedure for marrying a crown prince's wife, and her name is on the imperial family's register."
The Prince of Pingnan looked rather grim, because what she said was true.
Princess Pingnan said softly, "Qingwan, how could you speak to your father like that!"
Ye Qingwan looked at her and said, "Please, Your Highness, tell me, which of my statements is not true?"
Princess Consort of Pingnan: "..."
It's awkward precisely because it's true.
Ye Qingwan continued, "Now you're saying she's from a humble merchant family, and that she personally went to propose marriage to resolve the crisis."
"Although she was a merchant's daughter, she was also a good girl from a respectable family and the apple of her parents' eye."
"Now that the crisis is over, they're looking down on others. The way the Prince's Mansion behaves is even worse than that of a lowly merchant." (www.cascoo.net)
"Father and Mother, please don't forget who drove Princess Anle out when she came to our door today!"
"Such courage and boldness make her, in my opinion, the most qualified Crown Princess."
After she finished speaking, she bowed to the two men and left with her maid.
Both the Prince of Pingnan and the Princess of Pingnan looked extremely unpleasant.
Both men felt that the former princess's two children were more troublesome and difficult than the other.
Princess Pingnan harbored resentment in her heart. If she had known they would turn out like this, she would not have pretended to be kind and had killed the brother and sister instead.
After Princess Anle left the Prince of Pingnan's residence, she became increasingly angry.
She really didn't expect to suffer such a huge loss at the Prince of Pingnan's mansion today.
The imperial edict in her hand was burned, and her marriage to the Prince of Pingnan was basically ruined. She could not complete the task assigned by the emperor!
