"Your Highness."
Li Quan came into the palace and reported: "Fu Ming and Miss Fu want to see Your Highness."
After hearing what Miss Fu said, Xie Shian bowed and said, "Your Highness, I will take my leave now."
Zhao Yun nodded.
Xie Shian came out of the East Palace and happened to see Fu Ming and Fu Qianran coming. Fu Qianran's eyes were slightly red as if she had been crying. Xie Shian couldn't help but look at her twice.
When he met Fu Qianran's gaze, he quickly looked away.
Fu Qianran saw Xie Shian's evasive gaze, bit her lower lip, and walked into the hall, "My concubine pays homage to His Highness."
Zhao Yun lowered his eyes and looked at Fu Qianran and Fu Ming. "Get up, what brings you here?"
Fu Ming said, "Your Highness, Prince Ning's Consort Yun allowed her maid to beat my cousin Wu Yong, and she is unwilling to hand over her slave girl. I hope Your Highness will seek justice."
Behind the screen, Ye Wanhe heard the sound coming from the hall and frowned.
Zhao Yun asked, "The maidservant beside Yun Xiangye beat up Wu Yong? How could a little maid actually beat up a man?"
Fu Mingdao said, "I slapped my cousin. This is truly a great shame and humiliation. I hope Your Highness will make the decision."
Zhao Yun's voice was intimidating without being angry: "What do you think the Eastern Palace is? You want me to deal with a maid?"
Fu Ming listened to Zhao Yun's stern voice and said hurriedly, "Your Highness, I shouldn't have bothered you with this matter, but Yun Xiangye is very arrogant. She is really protecting her maid..."
Zhao Yun lowered his eyes coldly and looked at the two people below him.
Fu Qianran didn't dare to look up at Zhao Yun. She said hurriedly, "We are sorry for disturbing Your Highness. We will take our leave now."
Fu Qianran hurriedly signaled Fu Ming to leave. Seeing that the prince was angry, Fu Ming did not dare to stay in the East Palace any longer.
After leaving the palace, Fu Ming looked at Fu Qianran coldly and said, "Your Highness, don't you even give you this little bit of face?"
Fu Qianran whispered, "His Highness is the crown prince after all. It's not right for us to ask him to punish a little maid."
Fu Qianran breathed a sigh of relief after leaving the palace. Since His Highness was unwilling to get involved in this matter, she had finally given an explanation to her grandmother.
Inside the main hall.
Ye Wanhe listened to the footsteps going away, went to the tea room, made a cup of tea, and handed it to Zhao Yun, saying, "Your Highness."
Zhao Yun took the teacup from Ye Wanhe and said coldly, "What kind of place do the Fu family regard the Eastern Palace as? They even come to me for such a trivial matter as punishing a maid? Fu Qianran is so ignorant."
Ye Wanhe didn't dare to say anything. She was a little worried about Yun Xiangye. She had finally returned to Chang'an, so how could she have offended the famous playboy in Chang'an City?
Zhao Yun raised his eyes to look at Ye Wanhe and said, "Yun Xiangye is quite arrogant. Like master, like servant. She slapped Gu Yan many times, and the maidservants around her followed suit."
Ye Wanhe was slightly surprised and asked, "Xiang Ye slapped Prince Ning? No way?"
Zhao Yun said, "Although Gu Yan applied ointment, the marks on his face are not so easy to cover up. You can't see them from a distance, but if you get closer you can see the fingerprints on his face."
Ye Wanhe said, "Beating is love, scolding is affection. If a couple stops even beating and scolding, who knows, their love might actually be gone."
Zhao Yun turned the teacup in his hand and looked up at Ye Wanhe with an unclear emotion in his eyes.
Ye Wanhe realized that she might have said something wrong, so she lowered her head and said nothing. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had been acting a bit strange lately.
I can't figure out what he's thinking, so I'd better say less to avoid annoying him.
--
In the Princess's Mansion.
Yun Xiangye embroidered for another whole afternoon and finally finished the red plum blossom picture. Her neck and eyes were very tired from embroidering the red plum blossom picture.
When Xiao Nuonuo saw Yun Xiangye turning her neck, she hurried forward and tapped Yun Xiangye's shoulders, pinching them with her little hands in a very realistic manner.
Yun Xiangye held little Nuonuo in her arms and said, "Thank you Nuonuo."
"Princess, the eldest princess wants you to go to the main hall."
Yun Xiangye carried Nuonuo into the main hall.
After entering the main hall, Yun Xiangye bowed to the eldest princess and Prince Ning who were seated at the top, "Father, Mother."
After Yun Xiangye finished her ceremony, she and Nuonuo went to Gu Yan's side.
There was a man in the main room whom Yun Xiangye did not recognize.
The man saw Yun Xiangye approaching and hurriedly bowed, saying, "Princess, I've failed in my parenting and have offended you. I will return home and teach my son a lesson! This is our Xicheng Earl's Mansion's apology. I hope you won't mind and forgive my Yong'er this time."
Yun Xiangye listened to the words of the man in front of her and thought that he was the Earl of Xicheng.
Gu Yan said, "Yesterday, my wife was merciful and spared Wu Yong for the sake of Miss Fu's reputation, but you are getting even more aggressive. Today, the old lady and the mistress came to the Princess's residence to cause trouble with my wife. So, the imprisonment for molesting the Crown Prince's Consort will not be forgiven."
Yun Xiangye tugged at Gu Yan's sleeve and said, "I already promised Fu Qianran..."
Gu Yan said: "If we don't teach them a lesson, they will only become more aggressive."
Xie Zhixuan, who was at the head of the group, said, "Lord Xicheng, your Wu Yong is not young anymore. He deserves a good lesson. He dared to insult my daughter-in-law with disrespectful words. Letting him spend a few days in jail is already a mercy on me."
Xicheng Bo hurriedly replied with trepidation, "Yes, Princess."
"Go down."
Xicheng Bo hurriedly bowed and took his leave.
Yun Xiangye raised her eyes and looked at Gu Yan.
Xie Zhixuan looked at Yun Xiangye and said, "Xiangye, I've told you before, since you're my family, you don't have to worry about outsiders and let yourself suffer any grievances."
Yun Xiangye lowered her head and said, "Mother, I just feel that the Crown Princess is in a difficult situation."
