Fu Qianran said calmly, "It's not that long of a wait, Princess. I'll be frank with you. I came to see you today because of my disappointing cousin Wu Yong."
Yun Xiangye's smile paused slightly.
Fu Qianran said with embarrassment: "Wu Yong, the playboy, has offended you and deserves death, but my grandmother is old and she only has this one grandson. She usually treasures him very much. Now that he is imprisoned, she is extremely anxious. My wedding is coming soon, and I really don't want to see my elders make any more mistakes. I hope you can show mercy and forgive Wu Yong this time. When Wu Yong is released, I will definitely teach him a lesson..."
Yun Xiangye said, "Miss Fu, you can let Wu Yong go, but he first scolded me for not having a good upbringing. You and I both lost our mothers at the age of fifteen. If someone said you had no upbringing from your mother today, could you possibly tolerate it?"
Fu Qianran said: "This is indeed Wu Yong's fault."
Yun Xiangye continued, "He even insulted and harassed me with his words. My maid couldn't bear to see my reputation damaged, so she slapped him. He actually slapped Run'er back. Half of the little girl's face is swollen. Although Run'er is my maid, she is no different from my own sister."
Fu Qianran frowned and said, "When Wu Yong comes out, I will ask him to apologize to the Crown Princess. This bastard deserves death, but my grandmother... Sigh!"
Fu Qianran sighed heavily, "Princess, just consider it as I owe you a favor."
Yun Xiangye signaled the maids on both sides to step back.
When Yun Xiangye and Fu Qianran were alone in the room, Yun Xiangye spoke, "Miss Fu, I understand your filial piety. You will be the future Crown Princess, and I dare not disobey your orders. I also dare not say that you owe me a favor. However, I do have a favor to ask of you. I hope you will not treat Aunt Ye harshly when you enter the palace in the future."
Fu Qianran said quickly: "That's natural."
Yun Xiangye said, "Then I will go to the Chang'an government office and tell the prefect not to report Wu Yong."
Fu Qianran heaved a sigh of relief and said, "Thank you, Crown Princess."
Yun Xiangye whispered, "Miss Fu, you don't have to thank me. Today, Wu Yong and his gang of playboys started by saying he was the Crown Princess's cousin. I imagine he's been using your name to bully others. My dropping the charges against Wu Yong today may not be a good thing for you."
Fu Qianran tried her best to hold back the tears in her eyes and sighed, "What can I do? Am I really going to watch my grandmother die before my wedding? If my grandmother dies on my side, I will be accused of being unfilial, and I'm afraid I won't be able to be the Crown Princess anymore..."
Yun Xiangye looked at Fu Qianran. Although she was about to become the Crown Princess, she was just a poor person.
Her fiancé has had a mistress by his side for many years, and her cousin from her maternal grandparents' family is acting rampantly in her name. Her grandmother is partial to him and protects him. As the Crown Princess who is about to enter the palace, Fu Qianran cannot really sever ties with her maternal grandparents' family and can only clean up the mess for her cousin.
Fu Qianran stood up and said, "Today I do owe the Crown Prince's Consort a favor. If you need anything from me someday, just ask."
Yun Xiangye thought for a moment and said, "I do have one more thing to ask of you."
