Encouraged by a handsome boy of the same age, Ying Ning developed feelings for Yu Yun.
Later, when it was everyone's turn to make fun of Yu Yun, Ying Ning stood up to defend her without hesitation.
He slapped each of the three princes across the face and then announced, "Prince Yuyun will be under my protection from now on. None of you are allowed to bully him. If you do, you're going against me."
The three princes had disliked Ying Ning for a long time and were ready to beat her up, so the three of them attacked Ying Ning.
Seeing that Ying Ning was taking action for him, Yu Yun also joined the battle.
Because the master was present, the fight naturally didn't last long, but Ying Ning's fighting power was off the charts, and she beat up all three princes.
Because of Yu Yun's allegiance, she developed genuine feelings for him.
After returning home, under Yun Yiyi's instigation, she embarked on a path of humiliating Yu Yun.
?
"Princess, slow down, wait for me."
Yun Yiyi ran behind, panting heavily. She dared not stay behind, fearing retaliation from the princes and princesses.
Xiao Li walked forward without stopping, while Yun Yiyi ran until she was drenched in sweat and panting heavily.
"Princess, your painting is so beautiful! I never knew you were so talented."
She was exhausted; her legs were sore from walking such a short distance, but the princess didn't stop, and she didn't dare to stop either.
"Princess, when did you draw this? I didn't see it."
Xiao Li turned around and looked at Yun Yiyi, "What, do I need to report to you when I draw?"
Yun Yiyi bit her lip, feeling wronged. The princess had relied on her so much yesterday, so why had she changed her attitude today?
"Princess, did I do something wrong?"
Xiao Li tilted her head and looked her over. "I remember now. You took a lot of my jewelry before. You returned it all to me when you got back."
Yun Yiyi was dumbfounded. Wasn't that a gift from the princess? Why did she want it back now?
She wanted to explain, but seeing the princess's serious face, she gave up.
"Yes, Princess, I'm keeping those jewels safe for you. Just put them back on your dressing table when you get back."
Xiao Li nodded, finally managing a slight smile, while Yun Yiyi lowered her head, not daring to speak again.
She once again resented that her father's official position was too low, which made her lowly in status, and now she was being bullied by the princess.
If she were the prime minister's legitimate daughter, the tenth princess would certainly not dare to treat her like this.
I didn't see the Seventh Princess's companion, Nalan Hui, who was General Nalan's legitimate daughter. Even though the Seventh Princess was willful and capricious, she treated Nalan Hui kindly and didn't dare to order her around at all.
She felt sorry for herself, having worked like a slave, serving others hand and foot, yet still receiving no reward. She secretly wiped away a tear and followed Xiao Li back to Chaoyang Palace.
Upon returning to her residence, Yun Yiyi dared not slack off and quickly rummaged through her belongings, taking out all the benefits she had received from the Tenth Princess in the past.
These include earrings, studs, rings, beaded flowers... all of which are inconspicuous little things.
To be fair, Yun Yiyi was quite clever. Most of the princess's things were of a certain quality, so she didn't dare to take them randomly and only took the small items.
Although it was inconspicuous, it was very exquisite. The original owner may not have been unaware of the item's value, but she was willing to give Yun Yiyi this respectable treatment.
"Princess, everything is here."
Xiao Li glanced at her. Yun Yiyi was kneeling there holding a small box. There were so many things in the box.
She went down and reached out to take the pearl hairpin off Yun Yiyi's hair.
"This one too, right?"
Yun Yiyi immediately blushed. "Yes, I didn't look in the mirror, that's why I didn't see it. I didn't mean to, please forgive me, Princess."
Xiao Li waved her hand, letting the head palace maid Lan Xiang take over.
The original owner had several head maids, but Yun Yiyi said that having too many people around was not fun and there was no personal space, so the original owner distanced herself from the head maids of Chaoyang Palace.
Lanxiang excitedly stepped forward and took the box. Did the princess's willingness to let her manage her dressing case mean that she was willing to be close to and trust her?
She knelt down with a thud. "Princess, rest assured, this servant will take good care of these jewels and prevent anyone with ill intentions from stealing them."
After saying that, she glared at Yun Yiyi. This Yun Yiyi was really too wicked. She stirred up trouble between the princess and them as soon as she arrived, but she did such a thing herself.
Xiao Li waved her hand to tell her to get up, "Don't your legs hurt from kneeling so hard?"
"You should split up with Lan Yi, Lan Ruo, and Lan Fang."
Lanxiang understood; the princess was upset that the jewelry had been used. As a noble princess, this was only natural.
"Thank you for your kindness, Princess. I will have the Imperial Wardrobe send over some new jewelry. You can then choose some that suit your taste."
