Chapter 130 The Daughter of a Guilty Minister vs. the Disabled Prince 44
"Yun Fengyi, it's time to wake up. If you don't wake up, you will miss the opportunity to pay respects to the new prince's wife."
Yuling drew aside the bed curtains and saw obvious signs of two people sleeping on the small carved wooden bed. Xiaoyun was curled up in the corner, sleeping soundly.
She gently nudged Xiao Yun and couldn't help laughing. "People outside are saying that the princess was tired from serving His Highness yesterday, and that His Highness gave her a lot of gifts. From what I see, it was Yun Fengyi who was tired."
Ji Yunhuan sat up from the bed, still a little dazed, and let Yuling dress her up.
When she was fully awake, she remembered that she seemed to have slept with something in her arms last night, and Xiao Yan really came.
She was still pregnant, so Xiao Yan couldn't really do anything, but she could see that Xiao Yan really wanted to do something, and he held her tightly in his arms every night.
She thought Xiao Yan would favor Sun Jiayi. Even if it was just for a show for the emperor, he shouldn't have neglected the new prince's wife last night.
Now it seems that Xiao Yan must have used some tricks to fool everyone and came to accompany her late at night.
Yuling helped Ji Yunhuan out of the door and lowered her voice and said, "When I came here this morning, the old maids had just left. They really watched you all night, but no matter how hard they watched, they couldn't stop Your Highness from coming to see you."
Ji Yunhuan continued to walk forward without changing his expression, and said softly: "Don't say these words again in the future. There are spies everywhere in the Yihe Palace. In addition to those rewarded by Concubine Wu, there are also people brought in by the prince's wife from outside. We still have to be careful."
"I understand." Yuling responded with her head down.
Ji Yunhuan lived in the northeast corner of Yihe Palace, which was the farthest from the main hall and the Qianhe Palace in front. The two of them walked in silence for a long time before arriving.
The other two ladies had arrived early and were waiting under the sun.
Nanny Sun came out with a big smile on her face and said loudly, "The princess was exhausted last night, so His Highness specially asked her to rest for a while this morning. Now that everyone is here, please come in."
Standing at the front was Wen Liangyuan. She had been waiting impatiently. It was just that Xiao Yan had slept with her for one night. What was there to show off? She was not happy to be slept with by that spineless guy Xiao Yan!
Wen Lan snorted coldly, and the palace maid beside him also looked arrogant as she helped Wen Lan in.
Lin Liangyuan looked much more reserved. It was only after the maid next to her reminded her that she knelt slightly towards Nanny Sun and whispered, "Thank you, Nanny. I'm new here and don't know the rules. I hope you can give me more advice in the future."
She stuffed a bag of silver into Nanny Sun's hand, her intention to please her was obvious.
Nanny Sun was beaming with joy and personally led Lin Liangyuan in, leaving Ji Yunhuan outside as if she didn't exist.
Ji Yunhuan didn't care at all and followed everyone in. No one paid any attention to her and she was happy to be free.
Sun Jiayi was having dinner in the hall.
It was just a breakfast, but a large round table was filled with more than a hundred dishes of various kinds, just like a prince's consort.
There were more than a dozen palace maids serving in the hall, and even more palace servants standing in the corridor listening to orders, with their hands hanging down and holding their breath. It was obvious that they were very well-behaved.
Wen Lan bowed perfunctorily, "Greetings to the princess. If there is nothing else to do, I will take my leave first."
Sun Jiayi was unhappy in her heart, but she didn't show it on her face. She helped Wen Lan up affectionately and said with a smile:
"Wen Liangyuan is still so casual. We used to play together in the boudoir. Now we are in the palace together to serve the eldest prince. It can be seen that we are destined to be together. Why don't you stay and have dinner together?"
The palace maid brought a small embroidered stool and Wen Lan had no choice but to sit down.
Sun Jiayi was sitting on a large pearwood chair at the top. As soon as she sat down, she felt that the chair was much shorter than Sun Jiayi. The embroidered stool was not comfortable for her to sit on and could only support half of her buttocks, making her quite uncomfortable.
Wenlan's stomach was empty, but she had no intention of eating. She just wanted to leave this damn place as soon as possible.
Lin Wan'er stepped forward and saluted with a very respectful attitude. Even though Sun Jiayi offered her a seat, she did not dare to sit down. Instead, she stood beside Sun Jiayi and said with great fear and trepidation:
"How dare I eat with the princess? Let me serve her. If I do something wrong, please don't be disgusted."
Sun Jiayi was very satisfied with Lin Wan'er's attitude. "Although she was born in a commoner family, Lin Liangyuan has very good manners and is more sensible than those from official families. I liked you the moment I saw you. You should serve me often in the future."
"Your Highness and I are in love, and you will definitely come to visit me often. If you can win your Highness's favor, I am not a jealous person. As long as you are respectful and sensible, and don't break the rules, I will naturally promote you. If you have a boy or girl in the future, you will have someone to rely on in this life."
Lin Wan'er knelt down excitedly, "I have no one to rely on in this palace. Fortunately, the prince's wife is kind and tolerant. I am grateful to her."
"Alright, get up. It doesn't matter if you are born in a low class, the most important thing is your character. If there are those who are coquettish and don't know the rules, I will never let them off easily!"
Finally it was Ji Yunhuan's turn to step forward. She bowed properly with her eyes lowered, and no one could find fault with her.
Sun Jiayi drank the Tremella soup slowly with an indifferent attitude, as if she didn't take the little Feng Yi seriously.
"Yun Fengyi is here, get up."
Ji Yunhuan stood up and stood aside, with no intention of trying to please the prince's wife. Anyway, no matter what she did, Sun Jiayi would not have any good feelings towards her, so it was better to do nothing.
Sun Jiayi couldn't help but look towards Ji Yunhuan, but Ji Yunhuan lowered his head and looked submissive, without any disrespect, so she couldn't find any fault with him.
That face is indeed stunningly beautiful, revealing a seductive and enchanting aura. No wonder she could have charmed the eldest prince so much. If this woman is not eliminated, he will definitely take advantage of her in the future!
Sun Jiayi was just looking for an excuse to teach Yun Fengyi a lesson when Xia Yang came in with a group of people.
"I pay my respects to the princess. I am here on the orders of His Highness to bring her some clothing and jewelry."
Several eunuchs lined up in a row, each carrying a huge mahogany box. Regardless of what was inside, the quantity alone looked very impressive.
Sun Jiayi was overjoyed and quickly stood up and said, "Thank you for troubling Eunuch Xia. Your Highness is so kind and I am really unworthy of it."
Xia Yang said cheerfully: "You are too polite, Princess. This is what a servant should do."
Ji Yunhuan felt that these mahogany boxes looked familiar. When Liu Xi, who was beside the emperor, came in, she remembered that these boxes were awarded to Xiao Yan by the emperor.
After that, these boxes were piled up in the warehouse. Xiao Yan looked down on them and did not take them out to make clothes for her. Her clothes and jewelry were all made by someone else that Xiao Yan asked. There were no other clothes like them in the world.
Liu Xi stepped forward to pay his respects to the princess. Sun Jiayi dared not accept Liu Xi's greeting, so she immediately gave him a fake support and helped him up.
"This is a coincidence. His Highness is concerned about the Crown Princess, and His Majesty has ordered me to send this pair of Ruyi here, which means that the couple is of one mind and will be together forever."
Just as Sun Jiayi took over the jade ruyi, Concubine Wu's reward arrived, which was an exquisitely carved statue of Guanyin, the Goddess of Fertility.
"This has been blessed by the master of Huguo Temple. If you put it in your house, it will definitely bless the couple to have harmony and many children. The imperial concubine said that she is waiting for the prince's wife to give birth to children for the eldest prince."
