Chapter 370 The Rebirth of Princess Yan
"Thank you for your compliment, sister!"
Du Wan'er smiled softly, "I've often heard about my younger sister's past identity and these things."
As a descendant of the former imperial family, Du Wan'er, a former princess, was constantly exposed to various conspiracies and schemes. Beyond these, there was also information about investigations into all the nobles of the Tang Dynasty.
There is a saying that the person who knows you best is not your relative, not your friend, but your enemy.
After the previous dynasty was destroyed, it took the remnants a hundred years to give up the desire to restore the country. This can definitely be regarded as perseverance and determination.
"That's right, I almost forgot that Wan'er's identity is not ordinary!"
"How about this, wait a minute, you come with me to the Prince of Yan's Mansion, and we'll go meet this niece-in-law who survived the disaster."
"Sister, you seem to look down on Princess Yan?"
Du Wan'er's face showed surprise. "Prince Yan is the pillar of our Tang Dynasty. Our victory against the Northern Barbarians depends entirely on His Highness Prince Yan."
"Sister, how do you treat Princess Yan..."
"Wan'er, you don't know this!"
The eldest princess chuckled, "The Prince of Yan is the Prince of Yan, and the Princess of Yan plays the role of the king."
"Besides, this Princess Yan was trained by the old lady of the Xu Mansion. Her heart is in the Xu Mansion!"
"This, shouldn't be the case!"
Du Wan'er was surprised. "Didn't they say that the Prince of Yan and his wife were a loving couple, living in harmony?"
"My silly sister, if this is really a harmonious relationship, when Prince Yan got into trouble, would the Princess be sent to Huai'en Temple?"
The eldest princess laughed sarcastically, "What kind of affection do you mean? How often do men have true feelings for women? Everything is just a matter of mutual benefit!"
"This, little sister doesn't understand!"
Du Wan'er was very obedient and stopped talking.
…
In Prince Yan's Mansion, Princess Yan was dressing in front of the mirror, feeling sorry for herself.
She did return to Prince Yan's Mansion and took the position of Princess Yan again.
But her experience at Huai'en Temple made her realize that without Prince Yan, she was nothing. Even the old lady from the Xu Mansion, whom she called her grandmother, could not change her miserable end without Prince Yan.
She's back!
But her Prince Yan's Mansion, which was once crowded with guests, is now deserted.
None of the noble ladies who had been on good terms with her came to visit her, and none of them even made the polite gesture of sending someone to deliver a gift.
She came back, but it was no different from when she was still in Huai'en Temple.
She had indeed returned to a life of luxury.
But this is not what she wants.
What she wants is to be the center of attention and to be powerful.
She was once just an ordinary daughter of a branch of the Xu family. Only because of her outstanding appearance was she brought back to the Xu Mansion and became a lady of the Xu Mansion.
From then on, people kept telling her that the Xu Mansion was her only support. No matter what happened, as long as she remembered that she was a girl from the Xu Mansion, and always remembered and thought about the Xu Mansion, no matter what happened, the Xu Mansion would take care of it for her.
She believed it!
And have been doing so.
Even when Duke Antai sent a message asking her to cooperate, she did not hesitate to gamble with the Prince of Yan's legitimate son.
But the facts proved that when Prince Yan really wanted to deal with her, the Xu family could not bear it.
What a ridiculous thing!
She had trusted the Xu family all her life and had done many things for them. But when she needed their support, they were no longer reliable.
She also thought about these things when she was at Huai'en Temple.
But at that time, she didn't think so much, because her heart had already withered since she entered Huai'en Temple.
Being in the Huai'en Temple of the Living Dead, no matter how much resentment you have in your heart, in the end you are only torturing yourself.
A few days ago, when Old Madam Xu took her out of Huai'en Temple, her gratitude to Old Madam Xu reached an unprecedented level at that moment. Although she was still hesitating whether to continue to follow the Xu family, deep down in her heart she actually preferred the Xu family.
Because, in this capital city, if she leaves the Xu Mansion, she will be like a rootless duckweed.
Who made her completely offend the King of Yan?
What's more, the King of Yan had a woman outside, and this woman gave birth to a son for him.
Follow the Xu family, they cannot be relied upon at critical moments.
But what can she do?
Crash——
Princess Yan suddenly swept the things on the dressing table in front of her to the ground, then pulled off the ornaments on her head like a madman and threw them around.
“Ah! Ah! Ah…”
The Princess of Yan roared angrily.
She is unwilling to accept it!
She didn't want to be a puppet of the Xu family anymore.
But she had no choice.
Since she was brought into the Xu Mansion at a very young age, she no longer had the opportunity to choose.
Crouching alone in the corner, Princess Yan's tears fell.
If she could turn back time, she would not come to the capital again and would not enter the Xu Mansion.
She would be willing to marry an ordinary farmer.
…
"Princess, the Grand Princess is here!"
Just as Princess Yan was squatting dejectedly in the corner, crying silently, the voice of a maid was heard outside the door.
Hearing the maid's words, Princess Yan tilted her head slightly, slowly stood up, casually stroked her hair, and walked out of the room.
"princess……?!"
The maids guarding outside the door were all shocked when they saw the appearance of Princess Yan.
"Where is he?"
"Replying to Princess, the eldest princess has already gone to the reception room."
"Then let's go!"
After Princess Yan finished speaking, she walked away.
Princess Yan really didn't care about her current description.
Now she is still the Princess of Yan.
But this is only because Prince Yan has not returned to the capital yet.
Once Prince Yan returns, her life as Princess Yan will come to an end.
Just do your job as usual?
There is no need for that!
She doesn't want to force herself to smile for anyone anymore.
As for the King of Yan, he was inherently ruthless. So, if they wanted to break up, then so be it. Why would I bother calculating others for the King of Yan? It was simply a waste of time to be a villain!
In the past, every time she saw the Grand Princess, she would do her utmost to please her. But now, she didn't want to put herself in such a difficult position anymore.
Halfway through the journey, Princess Yan suddenly stopped, looked at the maid behind her, and said calmly, "I'm hungry. Go ask the kitchen to prepare some food. Um, send it to the pavilion over there!"
Princess Yan pointed to the pavilion in the garden over there. It was a pavilion overlooking a pond with running water, and it was indeed a great place to cool off.
"Princess, the eldest princess is still waiting for you in the living room!"
"Then just wait!"
Princess Yan glanced coldly at the maid behind her, "Why? Do I need you to teach me how to do things?"
"I dare not!"
The maid was so frightened that she knelt on the ground.
"Okay, go ask the kitchen to prepare food, I'll wait here!"
"yes!"
The maid dared not say anything more and quickly stood up and went to the kitchen to convey Princess Yan's instructions.
Princess Yan watched the maid leave and walked towards the pavilion over there.
As for the eldest princess, she was really left in the reception room of Prince Yan's Mansion.
