Yun Muyou spoke, covering her mouth, looking as if she had not ant to say that.
Yun Jinnian, too lazy to deal with her pretense, spoke gravely, "Oh, is that so? Which people were discussing this? Where? I must go listen so day and also ask that person. My journey was to find an antidote for His Majesty, Prince Yanjun, and His Highness Prince Rui, not to elope with soone. How dare he slander like that, I must ask His Majesty to stand up for !"
Yun Muyou was utterly dumbfounded.
She had assud Yun Jinnian was rely out for a leisure trip, unaware of the great responsibility she bore.
Hurriedly, she asked, "Did Fourth Sister find the antidote then?"
"Indeed, I found it. Now, Prince Yanjun and His Highness Prince Rui have been detoxified and are in good health. I am just waiting for His Majesty to summon to the palace!" Yun Jinnian said, with an indifferent air.
But to the ears of Yun Muyou and the others, this was exceedingly grating.
None of them were fools; with Yun Jinnian having saved Prince Rui and Prince Yanjun, not to speak of the rewards, just her own worth had doubled. Whether it was discussing marriage or walking through the Capital City, she would certainly be a sought-after guest among the noble clans.
Several of them envied her, jealous and resentful.
"Truly, congratulations are in order, cousin!" Xu Xinmo said, insincerely.
Yun Jinnian looked at Xu Xinmo calmly, just watching her.
For no apparent reason, she recalled how the law master ntioned soone had stolen her destiny back in Nanjiang.
The first suspect Yun Jinnian had was Xu Xinmo.
Without Xu Xinmo, the old marquise would not have detested her so much. Xu Xinmo was present during every displeasing incident.
Yet Xu Xinmo was even younger than her, unaware of the outside world. How did she co into contact with outsiders?
And Hei and Henuan seed to have ntioned that soone was protecting Xu Xinmo?
Was it soone sent by Xu Xinmo’s father, or soone else?
"Hmm," Yun Jinnian responded coolly, sowhat disinclined to chat.
If it had been before, Xu Xinmo certainly would have leapt up and scolded her. But after more than a year at the academy, Xu Xinmo had also learned to be sowhat craftier, standing up and bowing to Yun Jinnian, "Cousin, before I was younger and ignorant. I hope cousin won’t hold grudges against , please don’t take my past misdeeds to heart!"
Yun Jinnian watched Xu Xinmo, silent, neither objecting nor consenting.
Just because she was younger, she thought all could be erased so easily?
She wished it were that simple.
"You worry too much!"
Seeing this, Yun Zihan said, "Fourth Sister has been travel-weary all this way. Let’s give her so rest, now that Fourth Sister has returned. There will be plenty of opportunities to see her in the future!"
"Indeed, let’s not bother Fourth Sister anymore!" Yun Muyou also stood up.
Upon learning that Yun Jinnian had healed Prince Rui and Prince Yanjun, Yun Muyou also looked at her with new respect, though still sowhat skeptical.
Was Yun Jinnian’s dical skills truly so remarkable at just thirteen?
No matter what, it was wiser to foster good relations before understanding the full situation.
Yun Musi and Yun Mulan rely smiled, saying nothing.
After all, as things related to their sisters were concerned, they were still too young to get involved, and they dared not interfere.
After seeing Yun Muyou and Yun Zihan out, Yun Jinnian heard her maid co to report that the first brother-in-law and the second brother-in-law had co to pick up the two young mistresses and take them back.
Thinking of her own marquess husband, Yun Muyou imdiately smiled, "Fourth Sister hasn’t t your two brothers-in-law yet. Why not et them now?"
Yun Jinnian was not particularly curious about Weng Jianrui, but she absolutely must et Liao Shijie. After all, it was she who had facilitated their union, pleading with Chu Yu to lay out a complex trap that resulted in Yun Zihan marrying Liao Shijie. She nodded amiably, "Alright!"
