Chapter 363 Princess Yan: I’m back!
In the western suburbs of Beijing, there are endless green mountains.
Among the mountains, there is a Taoist temple with a long history.
The name of the temple is Huai'en.
Huai'en Temple was originally the place where the palace ladies of the previous dynasty were housed.
To this day, Huai'en Temple has become a place for noble families and women from wealthy families to retreat from the world.
Of course, most of the so-called retreats are not of their own accord, but are forced here.
This place is more like the grave of those women who have lost their power.
The former Princess of Yan is now here.
However, when the news of Prince Yan's death was announced, Emperor Yongping ordered the Princess of Yan to be sent here. The external statement was that the Princess of Yan had become a nun to pray for Prince Yan.
Now that Prince Yan is alive, what about the Princess Yan who has become a nun?
"Princess, Princess!"
After another day of daydreaming, Princess Yan seemed to hear someone calling.
However, after only a moment of trance, the Princess of Yan regained her somewhat dazed expression. With the Prince of Yan dead, there was no need for her, the Princess of Yan, to exist anymore.
Even the old lady of the Xu Mansion chose to give up on her.
Do you regret it?
The Princess of Yan didn't know.
Without the support of the Xu family, she could not become the Princess of Yan.
The daughter of the Xu family's side branch was raised in the Xu Mansion and won the favor of the old lady, so she married the younger brother of the current emperor, His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan, the most honorable man in the Tang Dynasty.
She is the Princess of Yan, but she has no background.
If she lost the support of the Xu family, she didn't know whether she could still hold on to her position as Princess of Yan.
She never gave birth to a son for the King of Yan. Instead, the King of Yan brought a son back from outside and raised him under her name, saying that he was their late-born son.
But she knew that it was not her child.
Whenever she saw that chubby boy, Princess Yan's heart felt like it was being scratched by a cat, and she wished she could strangle that little thing to death.
But she knew she couldn't!
So, when she received the message from Duke Antai, she became interested.
But man proposes, God disposes, and the boy was safe and sound.
If God gave her another chance to start over, would she make the same choice?
Princess Yan has thought about it many times these days, but she still can't come up with a different answer.
"Princess, Princess!"
While I was stunned, a familiar call came from No. 2 Middle School again.
This time, Princess Yan did not continue to be dazed. Instead, she stood up, slowly walked to the door, and pushed it open.
With a creaking sound, the door slowly opened.
The dazzling sunlight fell into Princess Yan's eyes, making her stunned for a moment.
It’s been a long time since I stood in the sun!
"Welcome the princess back home!"
In the yard, all the mothers and maids who used to serve her were there, kneeling on the ground.
Princess Yan stared blankly at everything in front of her, her expression somewhat hesitant. She shook her head vigorously, blinked again, and then stared blankly at everything in front of her as if in a dream.
"Fool, I've wronged you these days!"
The voice of the old lady from the Xu Mansion came from the side.
Princess Yan turned her head blankly and saw Old Lady Xu standing under the eaves next to her.
"grandmother?!"
"It's me!"
Old Lady Xu nodded.
Princess Yan's body trembled, tears fell uncontrollably, and she rushed towards Old Lady Xu.
"Grandma, I thought you didn't care about me anymore, wuwuwu..."
"Silly girl, there are so many people watching, aren't you ashamed to drop gold beans!"
Old Lady Xu hugged Princess Yan who rushed towards her and patted her back gently.
"Good boy, it's over, it's all over!"
Old Lady Xu gently and kindly comforted Princess Yan, saying, "Prince Yan is not dead. He's back. Naturally, you don't have to stay here any longer."
"Grandma will take you back to Beijing!"
"Granddaughter thanks Grandpa!"
Princess Yan was really crying at this moment.
When she arrived at Huai'en Temple, she thought she would never be able to leave.
Who would have thought that it would only take such a short time for her to leave this damn place.
Princess Yan's heart was filled with gratitude.
Of course, what she was grateful for was not that Prince Yan was still alive, but that Old Lady Xu still remembered her and came to take her back in person.
"Let's go back to Beijing!"
Old Madam Xu held her head high and chest puffed out, full of vigor.
Under the guidance of Old Lady Xu, the Princess of Yan also got rid of the dejected air on her body.
"Grandma, let me support you!"
"Silly girl, grandma is in good health, why does she need your help?"
Old Lady Xu patted Princess Yan's hand, then turned her gaze to the servants and maids kneeling on the ground and said calmly, "Come, help Princess Yan change her clothes!"
"grandmother……?"
"Silly girl, if you want to return to the capital, you must do so in a grand and solemn manner, with all the ceremonial guards!"
"You are the Princess of Yan!"
"The princess of the most noble prince of the Tang Dynasty!"
"Go, change your clothes, and Grandmother will personally welcome you back to the capital!"
"Well, granddaughter thanks grandma!"
Princess Yan nodded heavily, and then, with the help of the people around her, she entered the room and quickly changed into the formal attire of a princess of a royal family, which was both glorious and elegant.
"Okay, okay, this is the Princess of Yan!"
Old Lady Xu was very satisfied when she saw Princess Yan change her clothes.
"Go back to Beijing!"
Following Old Lady Xu's call, a group of people in the yard started talking and shouting in unison.
For a moment, the tranquility of the entire Huai'en Temple was broken.
Many women who were forced to stay here opened their doors, staring blankly at the Princess of Yan who was being escorted away. The envy deep in their eyes was like a spark, which flashed lightly and was immediately blown out by the wind.
Anyone who enters here is a forgotten person.
They are alive, but in the memories of many people outside, they are already dead.
If the Prince of Yan had not been resurrected, and if Old Lady Xu had not come, then the Princess of Yan would have lived here, but died in the hearts of people outside.
When leaving Huai'en Temple, Princess Yan was in a state of excitement.
On the way back to Beijing, the ceremonial procession was set up and the sound of gongs and drums was deafening.
Princess Yan's mood gradually changed from excitement to calmness, and then slowly fell silent.
She's back!
What will happen in the future?
The King of Yan was tired of her.
Even if she, the Princess of Yan, returned to the capital, what would happen?
The Princess of Yan couldn't help but look at the carriage in front of her. Sitting inside was the old lady of the Xu Mansion, the old lady she called "Grandma".
She was not stupid and would not simply think that Old Lady Xu came to pick her up because of the love between her grandmother and granddaughter.
All I can say is that she is still useful now.
After realizing this, Princess Yan suddenly felt a little frightened.
Before, she was still able to survive in Huai'en Temple. What about this time? Would she continue to stay with the Xu family and continue to listen to the words of Old Lady Xu?
What should she do?
Princess Yan was confused.
Before she could figure it out, the team had already arrived in the capital.
The majestic city walls and the bustling downtown are not found in Huai'en Temple.
"I'm back!"
When the carriage entered the city, Princess Yan was no longer confused.
Regardless of whether she wanted to follow the Xu family or not, she only knew that she didn't want to go back to Huai'en Temple. Even if she died, she wanted to die in this city.
I'm going to the library later. The book I borrowed is overdue, so I need to pay a small amount of money to renew it. I'll continue the update in the afternoon. By the way, please support me with a monthly ticket! Thank you very much!
