Yinxia did not expose her, and continued: "Since our young lady is more important than men, you should have less contact with Ruyi and the others in the future, so as not to fall into a dilemma."

Dongyu patted his chest and promised, "Don't worry, I will never pay attention to Hei Lian again. If I pay attention to him again, I will be a dog."

Hearing the word "dog", Dahuang stood up from the ground and barked at Dongyu.

Dongyu patted its forehead and said with a headache: "Sit down, I'm not talking about you, I'm talking about myself!"

There was a corner door in the back room of Shuangxinju that led directly to the outer courtyard. Ruyi stood outside the corner door, holding the braised pig's trotters packed by Zuixianglou in her hand. She sighed for a while, and in order not to let the eldest girl be treated like a dog, she thought for a long time and finally turned around and left.

He really didn't understand what his master was trying to do!

Today in Hua Man Lou, it was as if there were thorns on his body and mouth, which pricked everyone he saw. He looked at the leaky pot at least ten thousand times a day. Even though he was clearly in agony, he still insisted on staying there to show it to the Crown Prince's Consort.

Unexpectedly, he did something even more outrageous at night and went straight to sleep in the other women's yard.

As a result, before the Crown Prince's Concubine could do anything, her maids were set on fire first, and he was also implicated to suffer the consequences.

Ruyi didn't walk far when he bumped into Jixiang. Jixiang glanced at the braised pig's trotter in his hand and said, "Hey, why did you bring this trotter back intact? Didn't you see your rude girl?"

"How do you know I didn't see anyone?" Ruyi was holding her breath, so her words were bound to be offensive.

"If you see someone, can you still carry this big hoof back intact?"

Although Jixiang's words were a bit insulting, Ruyi was speechless because no matter how angry Dongyu was, he would never get angry about food. Any delicious food would not be left over, let alone eaten intact.

Thinking that they were all in the same boat, Ruyi still advised, "Jixiang, you should go back to where you came from. Miss Yinxia is angry now. If you go there now, you will definitely become a target for our master's anger."

"Ah~~" The two sighed at the same time. After sighing, Jixiang began to shake his head again, "I regret it, I regret it!"

Ruyi asked curiously, "What do you regret? You regret missing out on all the pretty maids in the mansion and messing with the people around the Crown Prince's wife."

Different from Ruyi who has a sullen face all day long, Jixiang is a kind person who smiles at everyone he sees. As the prince's personal attendant, he naturally becomes the first choice of the pretty maids in the mansion when choosing a husband. Many of them flirt with him and throw themselves into his arms.

Jixiang rolled his eyes at Ruyi in anger, "If I could be attracted by those mediocre girls, why would I have to wait until now? I regret that I was too slow. I should have asked my master to propose to the Crown Prince's wife earlier. It's too late to say anything now... Oh, I regret it!"

Although Yinxia was also born a maid, her appearance and demeanor were no worse than those of the girls from official families. She was also smart and good at martial arts. In short, she was good in every way.

Jixiang had a hunch that things wouldn't get better between their master and the Crown Princess any time soon, and his quest to find his wife would become a long, uncertain journey.

At dawn the next day, Yinxia and a few others came to the front yard to work.

After confirming with the gatekeeper that the prince did not return to the courtyard last night, Yinxia pushed the door and entered the inner room.

What she expected was correct. Yan Muxi had already woken up and was lying on the bed in a daze.

Seeing several people coming in, Yan Muxi struggled to sit up and asked in a hoarse voice, "What time is it?"

Yin Xia replied, "It's just the beginning of the morning hour. Princess, do you want to sleep a little longer, or get up now?"

"Get up. You won't fall asleep if you just lie there. Mother has woken up early these past two days, so it's a good opportunity for us to go to Zhuxiang Hall and wait for her."

Seeing the obvious blue shadow under Yan Muxi's eyes, Dong Yu puffed up her face and said distressedly: "Miss, don't worry too much. Jin Chun has gone to make contraceptive soup. No one in the palace is more favored than you."

Yinxia wanted to stop Dongyu but it was too late. She could only make up for it, "Miss, don't listen to Dongyu's nonsense. The prince was just looking for something new. It's not necessarily that..." he slept with another woman.

She couldn't say the second half of the sentence because if she didn't believe it herself, how could she expect others to believe it?

Yan Muxi also understood that Yu Wantai did not return to the yard last night, but went to another woman's yard to rest. However, she had guessed it roughly. At the moment, she couldn't say that she was calm, but she couldn't say that she was shocked either.

She knew it in her heart, but as Yu Wantai's principal wife, she had to ask, "Whose courtyard did the prince go to rest?"

Dong Yu realized that she had let the cat out of the bag and lowered her head and whispered, "She went to Lan Gui Yuan. As for which room she stayed in, I don't know."

"I don't know. I'll go and take a look myself." Yan Muxi jumped off the bed and was about to go out.

Yin Xia stopped her and said, "It is inappropriate for the Crown Prince's wife to do this. You are the principal wife. If you argue with a prostitute who is not presentable, you will only lose face in the end."

Yan Muxi insisted unexpectedly, "I am not arguing with the prostitute, I am arguing with Yu Wantai. No one of you should stop me, I just want to see with my own eyes what kind of face Yu Wantai has now."

Yin Xia and the others failed to stop her. After quickly helping Yan Muxi to dress up, they followed her and kicked open the door of Lan Guiyuan.

The reason why she kicked the door open was purely Dongyu's personal behavior. Yan Muxi told her to knock on the door, and she went forward and kicked the door open, almost frightening the gatekeeper to faint.

The door falling made such a loud noise that servants from the front and back yards came out to check. Yu Wantai, who was resting in the east wing of the front yard, was no exception. The person who came out of the room with him was Miaoyin, who was the first to enter the palace. Both of them were in dishevel.

Although she had prepared herself mentally, when she saw this scene with her own eyes, Yan Muxi's heart still felt as if it was being scratched. She felt very uncomfortable. She looked at Yu Wantai quietly, and could not utter a single word of the questions she had prepared on the way.

Instead, it was Yu Wantai who spoke first, "Xixi, listen to my explanation."

"My lord, you don't have to explain to me. It is your freedom to rest wherever and with whomever you want. If I ask for your explanation, it will make me look jealous and ignorant. Now that I know that you are fine and have no missing limbs, I will not disturb you from resting." After saying this, Yan Muxi turned around and left.

Yu Wantai subconsciously chased after him, but was stopped by Lingyin behind him, "My Lord, wait a moment. I will help you put on your cloak."

After being reminded, Yu Wantai looked down and seemed to realize that he was only wearing a shirt.

When Yu Wantai dressed neatly and rushed out of the courtyard, Yan Muxi and his servant were nowhere to be seen. He hurried back to Shuangxinju, and was told that the Crown Prince's Consort had not returned to the courtyard, so he hurried to Zhuxiangtang without stopping.

In Zhuxiang Hall, the conversation between the mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law could be heard from inside the house. "Xixi, you must be good to Tai'er and don't create unnecessary grudges. Although he has a bad temper, he is kind-hearted and has never been a bad child."

"Don't worry, mother. The prince and I are doing well. We have been married for more than two years. I know what kind of person he is. Even if he has a little temper, I am happy to spoil him, just like you spoil father."

Princess Rong looked at Yan Muxi and smiled, "Well, you are all well. Mother can rest assured now. Xixi, please go out first. I have something to say to your father alone."

"Okay." Yan Muxi went out as she was told. Seeing Yu Wantai standing at the door, she knelt down to greet him, then moved aside and stood under the eaves of the corridor.

Yu Wantai came over, "Xixi, I..."

She covered her lips with her fingers, "Shh~ Don't disturb your mother's peace. If you have anything to say, wait until we get back to the courtyard."

Inside the room, old Prince Rong sat beside the bed, looking tenderly at Princess Rong.

Princess Rong looked at him and smiled, "My Lord, please divorce me!"
