Yun Xiangye thought of her cousin Xie Shian who had brought her into the East Palace that day and said with a smile, "Xie's cousin is indeed a handsome man."
Gu Yan had just come over and frowned as he heard Yun Xiangye's words.
Yun Xiangye said to Xiao Nuonuo beside her, "Did you see the most beautiful grandmother there? Would you like to go play with her?"
Xiao Nuonuo nodded, went into the house and went to play with Aunt Xie.
Recently, people in Chang'an City have been talking about Prince Ning's wife who appeared at the palace banquet on the first day of the new year.
Today, all the ladies and daughters came to the banquet. When they saw that Prince Ning's wife actually asked her own daughter to play with her great-aunt who came from a humble background, they all looked at her with disdain.
Many ladies and daughters also thought that Yun Xiangye was indeed the daughter of a small merchant family. Not only did she not keep the child away from the humble-born Princess Xie, she even let the child play with Princess Xie. It was unlucky for the child to have such a mother.

Gu Jingyu heard the voice and went to the gate to greet her: "Second aunt."
Yun Xiangye looked at the approaching Princess Chu. She felt the meaningful gaze from the Princess Chu and lowered her head, calling out, "Second Aunt."
Gu Jingyu held the Princess of Chu's hand and said, "Second aunt, why did you come here alone today? Where is Sister Nan'an?"
Princess Chu looked at Yun Xiangye and said, "Jing'er is sick. She has been ill for several days. Nan'an is taking care of Jing'er."
Gu Jingyu said, "Ah? Cousin Jing is sick? Then I'll go visit Cousin Jing tomorrow and take his pulse."
Princess Chu looked straight at Yun Xiangye and said, "You can't cure his illness. He can only rely on himself to heal it. Alas."
Yun Xiangye didn't dare to look directly at the Princess of Chu. The Princess of Chu meant that Zhao Jing might have gotten sick because of her. Yun Xiangye did feel a little guilty.
Yun Xiangye felt a force on her wrist, and before she could react, Gu Yan had already pulled her into a small warehouse where miscellaneous items were stored.
Gu Yan said angrily, "You're so worried just because I heard Zhao Jing is sick?"
Yun Xiangye said, "His illness is partly due to me. People are made of flesh and blood. He's been sick for several days because of me. Can't I be a little worried?"
Gu Yan was furious. "Yun Xiangye, I am your husband! You are worrying about other husbands in front of me? Do you think I am dead?"
