"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived—"
Wushuang, who was in the process of teaching the wet nurse a lesson and had even searched her residence, heard the eunuch's message.
She was not surprised at all when she saw Yun Yin. She would have been surprised if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had not heard any rumors.
Wushuang looked through the wet nurse's account book as if nothing had happened, and didn't care about Yun Yin's arrival at all.
"Your humble servant greets your second sister-in-law." Yun Ling followed Yun Yin in and saw the woman sitting in the main seat. Even though she looked incredibly beautiful despite her lazy posture, she still greeted her politely.
Wushuang lazily lifted his eyelids and glanced at Yun Ling, then nodded and said, "It's my fifth brother, why are you here?"
What is Prince Wei doing in the Eastern Palace?
When did these half-brothers become so close?
Especially the Crown Prince Yun Yin, who was like a target, had absorbed the hatred of all his brothers since he was a child.
Why was Yun Ling coming to the East Palace at this time? To watch the fun?
"Second sister-in-law, I heard that you actually dealt with second brother's wet nurse? And you even wanted to kill her?" Yun Ling stood up and said when he heard Wushuang asking him.
"Second sister-in-law, I'm not saying this as your younger brother, but you just married into the Eastern Palace. How can you treat your second brother's wet nurse so casually?"
"The wet nurse raised my second brother. Even if she didn't contribute anything, she worked hard. How can you treat her like this?" Yun Ling said righteously.
"Oh?" Wushuang threw the account book to Yun Yin, then looked at Yun Ling and said, "Fifth brother, you feel sorry for this slave girl, but do you know what she did?"
"Also, fifth brother, have you forgotten? His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is the heir to the throne of the Great Yun Dynasty. How could he be raised by a lowly servant?"
"Your Majesty raised the Crown Prince. He was an outstanding heir, raised with countless efforts by Your Majesty... Fifth Brother said that the Crown Prince's growth was all thanks to that lowly servant. Is he trying to erase Your Majesty's hard work?"
"Fifth brother, where do you put His Majesty?" Wushuang stared at Yun Ling and asked in a serious and stern tone.
"That's not what I meant!" Yun Ling quickly retorted when he saw Wushuang was making the matter sound so serious.
How could he erase the contributions of his father?
Of course, he also knew that the prince was so handsome because of his father, but it was because of this that he was jealous.
Although the prince has no biological mother, he has been favored by his father since he was a child; although Yun Ling has a biological mother and a father, the favor he receives is not as much as the prince.
So he was very jealous of the prince!
Why does the prince have such unique conditions?
Why does he receive so much favor and preference from the emperor?
He is just jealous.
"That's not what you meant? Then what are you doing, Fifth Brother? Are you trying to plead for mercy on behalf of this lowly servant who stole from the company?"
Wushuang said expressionlessly, "Fifth brother may not know what the Crown Prince's wet nurse has been doing for the past twenty years."
"She relied on her position as the Crown Prince's wet nurse to amass wealth within the palace and accepted countless bribes."
"She also replaced items in His Royal Highness's storeroom with counterfeits and then sold the genuine goods."
"Tell me, why can't I, the Crown Princess, kill such a lowly servant?" Wushuang stared at Yun Ling coldly and questioned.
Yun Ling was shocked by her intimidating aura. He didn't expect that his second sister-in-law had such a strong deterrent power. It was like facing his angry father, which made people unable to help but feel scared.
"Fifth brother, do you think that since that slut did such a thing, we can still protect her? Let her not suffer any punishment and let others follow her example?" Wushuang asked.
Yun Ling quickly shook his head. How could he possibly excuse the prince's wet nurse?
He even wanted to kick someone when he was down.
"Second sister-in-law, are you telling the truth? The Crown Prince's second brother's wet nurse actually committed embezzlement? He even accepted bribes from the palace? Is this true?"
Yun Ling was a little excited. If he could use his wet nurse as a breakthrough point to attack the prince, would it be possible for him to make his father value the prince less?
If small amounts accumulate into a large one, can he bring down the prince?
The position of crown prince should be held by the most capable. Why has Yun Yin been holding the position of crown prince for more than 20 years?
However, Yun Ling also persuaded himself to endure it. After all, there were really not many princes who could successfully ascend the throne, and he believed that Yun Yin would not be the lucky one.
Wushuang knew what Yun Ling was planning as soon as she saw his expression, but she didn't care. Instead, she told him about the prince's wet nurse.
"By the way, I also discovered that eighteen years ago, Concubine Shu seemed to have given a bribe to the wet nurse in order to find out the whereabouts of His Majesty and the Crown Prince." Wushuang said to Yun Ling with a smile.
Shufei is Yun Ling’s biological mother.
Shufei, who came from a relatively high family background, was not particularly good-looking back then, so she had to use some tricks to gain favor.
Unexpectedly, she actually set her sights on the prince.
But Wushuang can also understand.
After all, the status of the prince in the heart of Emperor Yun is obvious to all. Starting from the prince can indeed gain special treatment from Emperor Yun.
Wushuang couldn't help but look at Yun Yin with sympathy, sympathizing that he had become a part of the play between his father and his father's concubines.
Yun Yin's expression did not change at all. This was not the first time, nor would it be the last time. Yun Yin had become accustomed to it.
His expression didn't change when he looked through the account book left by his wet nurse.
The wet nurse wrote this account book so that if she was caught one day, she would have evidence to prove what someone had done to her.
Of course, another possible reason is that she wanted to record how much money she earned, how much "respect" she received, how much benefit she gained, and then secretly show off.
Because of this account book, Wushuang was able to get hold of more evidence against the wet nurse, and Yun Yin also knew what kind of person his wet nurse was.
Yun Yin knew that this wet nurse was not very loyal to him and was very selfish, so he did not get close to her.
Yun Yin is a smart man. He is not someone who is easily blinded by emotions. He is still very calm when looking at people and things.
He also saw clearly the nanny's attitude towards him.
It was just that he had never married before, and the Eastern Palace really needed someone to take care of it. The wet nurse was quite capable, so he didn't drive her away.
He didn't expect that the wet nurse actually wanted to do something to his Crown Princess, but she was outmaneuvered and now she can't save herself.
Yun Ling's expression froze when he heard Wushuang mention that Concubine Shu bribed the wet nurse eighteen years ago. He really didn't expect that his mother was also involved in it.
Eighteen years ago? He wasn't born yet, right?
So when his mother bribed the prince's wet nurse, was she already pregnant with him, or did she take advantage of this opportunity to get pregnant?
