Ye Wanhe looked at the young palace maids beside her and asked, "Can you do me a favor?"
"Aunt, please tell me."
Ye Wanhe said, "Help me guard outside. I have a few words to say to the Crown Prince's Consort."
Several young palace maids responded and went out the door.
Ye Wanhe held Yun Xiangye's hand and said, "Prince's Consort, from now on, please don't treat me as your sister anymore. Just think of me as a maid in the palace."
Yun Xiangye tearfully said, "Sister, I know I was wrong. It's all my fault. I've let you down, and I don't know how to ask for your forgiveness. Please don't disown me as your sister. Besides Nuonuo and Run'er, you're the only one I have in Chang'an City."
Ye Wanhe said slowly, "I don't blame you for my punishment. Ultimately, it wasn't your fault. I was confused. After seeing you a while ago, I forgot the supremacy of imperial power, the distinction between master and servant, and the distinction between high and low. Since I am a servant of the Eastern Palace, there is no longer any talk of family, only the distinction between master and servant and high and low."
Yun Xiangye shook her head and said, "Sister..."
Ye Wanhe held Yun Xiangye's hand tightly and said, "Remember, from now on, don't call me sister anymore. Just call me Aunt Ye."
Yun Xiangye's eyes were filled with tears, and her throat felt sore. She took out the medicine from her bosom and said, "This is the medicine the princess gave me. I'll apply it to you first."
Yun Xiangye carefully checked Ye Wanhe's wound, but when she saw the bloody wound, she was still surprised. Her eyes were full of tears, and the blood and flesh were even more creepy.
Yun Xiangye took the medicine, but she didn't dare to touch Ye Wanhe's wound at all.
After a long time, she slowly and gently applied the medicine to Ye Wanhe.
Ye Wanhe gritted her teeth and endured the pain, saying, "Princess, I'll apply the medicine myself. This Chang'an City is not our Fangqiao Town. You must be careful and cautious in your actions in the future. You know your place. You are the Prince Ning's Consort, and I am your servant. You shouldn't apply the medicine to me."
Yun Xiangye lowered her eyes and shed tears: "Since even family members have to observe the hierarchy in Chang'an City, then why not stay in Chang'an City? Sister, let's find a way to escape from Chang'an City together."
Ye Wanhe said, "If I escape from Chang'an City, the entire Ye family will suffer. You should just treat it as if your cousin has died in the palace. I am no longer your sister..."
Yun Xiangye bit her lower lip, slapped herself in the face, and cried, "It's all my fault. After you recover, give me ten or twenty slaps. But sister, please don't say you're no longer my sister."
Ye Wanhe looked at Yun Xiangye distressedly and said, "Stop hitting yourself. I really don't blame you for letting me get beaten. You hit yourself, and that actually makes me uncomfortable."
Ye Wanhe looked into Yun Xiangye's red eyes and said, "Princess Consort, I don't allow you to call me sister because there's a distinction between high and low. If the Crown Princess enters the palace one day, and you call her cousin and me sister, wouldn't that make me equal to the Crown Princess?"
Yun Xiangye bit her lip and said, "Then I would rather divorce Gu Yan. That way, the Crown Princess will no longer be my cousin-in-law. I only want you, sister."
Ye Wanhe sighed softly, reached out to wipe Yun Xiangye's tears, and said softly, "What kind of stupid things are you talking about?"
Yun Xiangye cried sadly, "Sister."
Ye Wanhe whispered, "How can you cry like this in the palace? Stop crying! It would be bad if someone picks a fight with you."
After hearing what Ye Wanhe said, Yun Xiangye knew that she couldn't cry.
But the more I wiped away my tears, the more I cried, and the harder I cried.
What kind of life did Sister He live in the palace? Even after being beaten with ten boards and suffering such pain, she was still worried about the taboo and could not cry in the palace without shedding tears.
She should have been a pampered daughter in the family. Although she was not rich, she should not have suffered like this.
Ye Wanhe wiped Yun Xiangye's tears and said, "Don't cry. Live a good life outside the palace for your sister. I will be imprisoned in this deep palace for the rest of my life. You are different. If you live well with Nuonuo and her mother outside, I will be happy too."
Yun Xiangye bit her lower lip and looked at Ye Wanhe's pale lips, feeling more and more guilty.
Ye Wanhe looked at the sky outside and said, "Let's leave the palace quickly, don't run into His Highness."
"elder sister……"
"Let's go! I have thick skin and flesh. These ten blows won't hurt me. I'll be fully recovered in ten days or half a month."
After Yun Xiangye put down the medicine, she seemed to have lost all her strength before she left the East Palace.
Yun Xiangye walked out of the East Palace gate but did not get on the carriage.
Instead, he walked slowly by himself, the sky gradually darkened...
This was the first time that Yun Xiangye felt the majesty of the imperial power, so majesty that she could not even call her own cousin "sister" anymore.
"Yellow leaves."
When Gu Yan saw Yun Xiangye walking on the street, he walked up to her and hugged her in his arms.
It was not yet completely dark when Gu Yan saw the red and swollen fingerprints on her body. "Who hit you?"
"Who hit me?"
Yun Xiangye looked at Gu Yan in front of her and said with tears in her eyes, "I beat him myself."
Gu Yan was stunned for a moment, "It's fine if you hit me, but why are you hitting yourself?"
Yun Xiangye shed tears and said, "I'm the one who hurt my sister. I deserve to be beaten. I'm the one who should be beaten."
Yun Xiangye said this and raised his hand to hit himself again.
Gu Yan hurriedly held Yun Xiangye's hand and said, "Aunt Ye originally asked me to tell you so that you don't feel guilty. Ultimately, this matter has nothing to do with you."
"How can it have nothing to do with me?" Yun Xiangye said loudly, "It's all my fault. I'm the one who made my sister like this."
Gu Yan comforted Yun Xiangye and said, "Aunt Ye said she doesn't blame you. You feel so guilty and hit yourself, I'm sure Aunt Ye will feel bad too."
