Fu Qianran looked at Yun Xiangye and asked, "What's the matter?"
Yun Xiangye smiled faintly and said, "I'm planning to open an embroidery workshop before March 3rd. I want to make two dresses for Miss An Ran so she can wear them to a banquet and make a name for my embroidery workshop. I wonder if I could come to your house and help Miss An Ran take measurements and make some clothes?"
Fu Qianran didn't expect Yun Xiangye to make such a request. She chuckled and said, "Of course you can. The Crown Princess can come to the Fu family to see me anytime she's free."
Yun Xiangye smiled and respectfully saw Fu Qianran off, then went to the Chang'an government office to withdraw the charges against Wu Yong.
Although Wu Yong was disgusting, letting him off so easily would be too easy for him.
But in the end, Yun Xiangye didn't want to make things difficult for Fu Qianran, as she was already a pitiful person.
After Yun Xiangye left the Chang'an government office, he took Run'er to a jewelry store and said, "Run'er, I'm withdrawing my complaint against Wu Yong. The one I feel most sorry for is you. Feel free to pick out a few pieces of jewelry you like today. Don't worry about the cost."
Run'er said hurriedly: "Miss, you haven't wronged me, you don't have to give me jewelry."
Yun Xiangye smiled faintly and said, "Then consider it a reward for your service in protecting the master. Don't be polite with me, just pick out the one you like."
Seeing this, Run'er only picked out a set of silver jewelry and head ornaments, which were not expensive. Yun Xiangye then took the initiative to buy a jade bracelet for Run'er.
It was already dusk when the two returned home.
Gu Yan was playing on the swings with Nuonuo in Qingfeng Garden. Seeing Yun Xiangye coming back, he asked, "Did you go to the Chang'an government office to withdraw the charges against Wu Yong?"
Yun Xiangye nodded and said, "Fu Qianran came to me and begged me to let Wu Yong go. She is also a pitiful person, and I don't want to make things difficult for her."
Gu Yan frowned slightly and said, "It would be great if you could be a little more tolerant towards me than towards outsiders."
Yun Xiangye said, "I'm not being tolerant towards Wu Yong. I just feel sorry for Fu Qianran. She and I both lost our mothers at the age of fifteen, and we both have husbands..."
Yun Xiangye glanced around, fearing that any Dark Dragon Guards might have heard what she said, so she had to hold her words back.
Yun Xiangye said, "Besides, why would we offend the future Crown Princess just to vent our anger? Fu Qianran is already pitiful enough."
Gu Yan said, "You already said she will be the Crown Princess in the future. Do you really need to pity her?"
Yun Xiangye sighed and said, "Being a Crown Princess is such a pitiful thing. You can't leave the palace, and there's also the Crown Prince..."
Yun Xiangye glanced around again and forced herself to hold back from saying anything bad about His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
Seeing her suspicious look, Gu Yan chuckled softly and whispered, "You don't have to worry about offending Fu Qianran. His Highness is not so unreasonable."
Yun Xiangye said: "I'm not just afraid of offending Fu Qianran, I pity her more. Although my mother also died young, my uncle and his family treated me very well.
As for her, her grandmother is partial to her grandson and indulges him. If I don't let Wu Yong go, wouldn't I be making things difficult for Fu Qianran? She can't give an explanation to her grandmother. Fu Qianran is already pitiful enough. Why should a woman make things difficult for another woman? "
Gu Yan sneered and said, "You only know how to pity others, why don't you pity me? Wouldn't it be more pitiful for me to kneel for a whole night?"
"You're not pitiful, you deserve it."
Gu Yan frowned slightly and snorted.
Yun Xiangye ignored Gu Yan and went back into the house to embroider the unfinished red plum blossom painting.
At night, Gu Yan returned from the study and saw Yun Xiangye still embroidering. He walked over to her and asked, "Is this painted by Junior Sister Lin?"
Yun Xiangye nodded and said, "Well, her paintings are quite beautiful."
Yun Xiangye doesn't know how to paint, but she knows how to embroider, and the plum blossoms she embroidered are lifelike.
"Don't embroider anymore. One hour a day will be enough from now on. If you embroider even at night, do you still need your eyes?"
Yun Xiangye said, "I want to make a few more clothes before the embroidery workshop opens, so that I can earn more money."
Gu Yan asked, "Are you short of silver? Didn't mother give you tens of thousands of taels?"
Yun Xiangye said: "That may not be mine. I will divorce you when the time comes..."
Gu Yan frowned upon hearing this. He held Yun Xiangye's hand tightly and said, "Do you feel uncomfortable if you don't mention divorce for a day?"
Before Yun Xiangye could say anything, Gu Yan pulled her into his arms and sealed her lips.
Gu Yan picked up Yun Xiangye and walked to the bed. He placed Yun Xiangye on the bed and whispered, "Don't mention divorce again in the future."
Yun Xiangye looked at Gu Yan's dishonest eyes and hands and asked coldly, "Your legs don't hurt anymore?"
Gu Yan chuckled and said, "I know you still care about me."
Yun Xiangye said: "Who feels sorry for you? I just..."
Gu Yan leaned over and covered Yun Xiangye's red lips, trying to cover his ears and steal the bell, thinking that she was just worried about him.
After being kissed for a while, Yun Xiangye took the initiative.
Gu Yan was surprised at Yun Xiangye's initiative. After all, when Jiangnan was deeply in love, she rarely took the initiative like this.
When Yun Xiangye saw that Gu Yan was ready to attack, she reached out and pushed him away forcefully when Gu Yan was off guard. "Didn't you say that you would ask Nan'an to apologize to me when we get back to Chang'an? When Nan'an comes to apologize to me, then you can touch me."
Gu Yan was caught off guard and pushed under the bed by Yun Xiangye. He laughed angrily and said, "Yun Xiangye, do you want to be a widow for the rest of your life?"
Yun Xiangye snorted coldly and turned her back to Gu Yan.
Gu Yan sighed helplessly, "I'll have Nan'an come to apologize to you tomorrow."
Yun Xiangye just pretended to be fast asleep.
Gu Yan took a deep breath and went into the bathtub.
--
The next morning.
When Yun Xiangye woke up, it was already noon. She had gotten used to getting up so late and didn't want to change.
