At this mont, Qian Qing suddenly asked, “Eldest Princess, you can actually treat Consort Hong’s illness, right?”

Qian Qing had followed Yu Yunxi for many years, and she knew the latter’s dical skills were outstanding. Although Yu Yunxi had lost her mories, it should not affect her dical skills so much. Hence, she found Yu Yunxi’s earlier words strange.

Yu Yunxi looked at Qian Qing with a slight smile.

‘She really knows …’

“That’s right. It’s not difficult to cure her. However, I can’t figure out her intentions so I can’t act rashly,” Yu Yunxi explained.

Qian Qing quickly nodded in understanding, thinking that it was a good thing that Yu Yunxi was so cautious.

Hongyi Palace.

Consort Hong coughed. She looked at the screen in the hall and called out,

“Yuezheng, she’s gone. Why aren’t you coming out?”

“Mother.”

Chu Yuezheng walked out from behind the screen after that. His eyes were looking in the direction where Yu Yunxi had just left.

“I observed it earlier. There was sothing wrong with her gait earlier. It was said that your grandfather punished her to kneel. She probably kneeled for too long. Looks like the rumor is true,” Consort Hong said lightly.

Chu Yuezheng raised an eyebrow and said aningfully, “Mother, do you really think that Grandfather truly wished to punish her?”

Consort Hong’s expression changed slightly as she asked, “What do you an?”

Chu Yuezheng smiled icily as he said, “In any case, I’m sure Yunxi has a way to cure you, Mother. Don’t worry. Although she’s unwilling to help you, I have a thousand ways to force her to help you!”

Consort Hong’s heart sank a little. She said worriedly, “Yuezheng, don’t do anything stupid.”

Chu Yuezheng did not respond to her words and only smiled aningfully.

Yu Yunxi had yet to arrive at the palace gates when she saw Feng Yili waiting for her with the little bun in his arms.

For the reason that they were in the imperial palace, the little bun could only lean over and secretly mouthed, “Mother, we ca to pick you up.”

Yu Yunxi smiled gently upon hearing this.

“Did Consort Hong make things difficult for you?” Feng Yili asked in a low voice. If one listened carefully, one would be able to detect the killing intent in his voice.

“No. I just checked her pulse, that’s all,” Yu Yunxi replied.

Feng Yili’s killing intent eased slightly upon hearing her words. Then, he said in a deep voice, “It’s not convenient to speak here. Let’s get in the carriage first.

Yu Yunxi looked at the luxurious and spacious carriage before she turned around and said, “Qian Qing, ng Xia, ride with us.”

Yu Yunxi was now the Eldest Princess of Xichu. If she got into the carriage alone with the King of Youshan, rumors would probably fly everywhere tomorrow. Although she did not care about rumors, she had to consider the

King of Zhenbei’s Residence. Her father was regarded as a hero by the people of Xichu, and she could not bear to do anything that would tarnish his reputation. With Qian Qing and ng Xia in the carriage, no one would be able to criticize them.

ng Xia and Qian Qing were both intelligent so they quickly understood Yu

Yunxi’s aning. They quickly nodded and said in unison, “Yes, Eldest

Princess.”

Although there were many people, the carriage was not crowded at all.

ng Xia was a little nervous after getting into the carriage due to Feng Yili’s oppressive aura.

Yu Yunxi could not help but chuckle when she saw ng Xia in such a state. She shot a look at Feng Yili and said disapprovingly, “Don’t be so scary. You’re scaring my maidservant.”

Despite her words, Yu Yunxi sounded a little coquettish when she spoke.

Feng Yili was naturally not angry. On the contrary, the corners of his lips curled up slightly, and his chilly aura seed to vanish imdiately.

The atmosphere in the carriage also lightened up after that.

ng Xia had just sighed in relief inwardly when she heard Yu Yunxi ask,

“ng Xia, tell about Consort Hong.”

“Yes, Eldest Princess. Consort Hong is from the Hong family, which is also one of the Four Great Families of Xichu. Her father was the Emperor’s Grand Tutor so she has known the Emperor since they were young. They can be considered childhood sweethearts. Initially, everyone thought that she was going to be the empress…”

Yu Yunxi raised an eyebrow and asked, “Then why didn’t she beco the empress later on? How did Empress Qin beco the Empress?”

Consort Hong’s background was good, and she was the Emperor’s childhood sweetheart. Based on the Emperor’s attitude toward her, it was obvious that he favored her.

“Eldest Princess, you don’t know this, but sothing happened to the Hong family back then…” ng Xia said seriously, “Consort Hong has two elder brothers. One of them is the current Cavalry General, and the other was the Pri Minister back then. In short, the Hong family was very glorious. However, the Hong family didn’t know the aning of restraint at all. Second Young Master Hong actually wanted to marry Princess Changlin…”

“Princess Changlin?”

ng Xia quickly explained, “She’s your mother’s sister.”

Yu Yunxi sneered. “The Hong family had a Grand Tutor, a Cavalry General, a Pri Minister, and a legitimate miss who had a high chance of becoming the empress at that ti, but the family was still not satisfied. The Hong family was really seeking death…”

After all, the Emperor could not tolerate Chu Changning’s existence just because their father favored Chu Changning. How could soone like that tolerate the Hong family’s actions? The Hong family’s actions were tantamount to seeking death.

“Exactly. Back then, the Emperor did not agree to the marriage. However, Princess Changlin was also determined to marry Second Young Master Hong, ” ng Xia said. In the next mont, her cheeks turned red as she continued to say in a low voice, “She actually… she actually took the initiative to… make it happen…

It was really difficult for ng Xia to say those words.

On the contrary, Yu Yunxi’s expression did not change much.

‘Oh, it seems like my aunt is very passionate and bold in regard to love…’

ng Xia continued to say, “When the Emperor found out about it, he was unsurprisingly furious. He stripped Second Young Master Hong of his official title and casually found a rchant’s daughter to marry Second Young Master Hong. After that, he married Princess Changlin to the Qiangwu tribe.”

Yu Yunxi raised an eyebrow when she heard this. She had heard that the Qiangwu tribe was quite… backward. Clearly, the Emperor was very angry with the Hong family.

“Because of Second Young Master Hong, the Hong family was suppressed, and Consort Hong failed to beco the empress. It took many years for the Hong family to regain its forr glory, ” ng Xia said. Then, a worried expression appeared on her face when she thought of sothing and said, “Eldest Princess, Xichu’s state banquet will be held in a few days. There’s a possibility that Princess Changlin might return. You have to be careful…”

“Why?”

Yu Yunxi’s curiosity was piqued.

‘What does my aunt have against ?’

“In fact, the person Princess Changlin really wanted to marry back then was

the King of Zhenbei. She used all kinds of thods to achieve her goal, and she even tried to drug him. However, the King of Zhenbei only had your mother in his heart. Later on, after your mother disappeared, Princess Changlin was shaless enough to go to the border city to look for the King of Zhenbei. However, she still failed to move his heart. After that, she ran back to the capital. Then, I don’t know how she did it, but she managed to climb back into Second Young Master Hong’s bed at that ti…”

Yu Yunxi:

Feng Yili:

The little bun: .

Qian Qing: .

Yu Yunxi regained her senses and quickly covered the little bun’s ears before she cleared her throat and said, “It’s inappropriate for children to hear such words…”

At the sa ti, Yu Yunxi cursed inwardly, ‘I want to take back what I just said.. Passionate and bold? No, that aunt of mine is simply shaless!’
