"Ah! This..." Jiang's face looked ugly, half of her face was filled with anger, and half of her face was annoyed by the fallen insect.

She couldn't help but take a step back, and only with the help of the maid did she stand firm.

Song Mingli frowned and thought for a moment, "That person must have more than just wanted to destroy the wedding dress, there must be another trick."

"Isn't this enough? Do you have any other tricks?" Jiang was so angry that she gasped.

Jingyou's eyes narrowed slightly, "Mother, I'll go ask Eunuch He to come back, he must not have gone far."

"This happened right after the dress was delivered. Someone must have tampered with it in the palace."

Song Mingli looked at Jingyou in surprise.

In such an emergency, Jingyou was not afraid, nor was he carried away by anger. He was able to analyze the situation calmly, which really made her feel relieved.

"Okay, let Molan go with you and make sure to invite Eunuch He back." Song Mingli nodded.

"Yes!"

Nanxing came over just in time. Molan gave the clothes to Nanxing, and she and Jingyou went to chase He Hongxi together.

"Ride a horse, ride a horse faster." Jingyou said.

Molan looked down at her clothes and thought, well, there was no problem riding a horse.

"This servant will take care of the young master."

Jingyou raised his eyebrows and looked at her, "Who are you looking down on? Even my father praised my horsemanship."

The two walked away talking.

Nan Xing frowned and stared at the clothes. Suddenly, she reached out and pinched the clothes.

Her fingers actually twisted a small hole in the clothes.

Nanxing frowned, "The clothes are ruined."

Jiang was standing aside, crying with anger, "I finally got rid of that hellhole of the Gu family!"

"It's so hard to meet Prince Jing who is willing to admit it... Why do I have to encounter so many twists and turns to marry Prince Jing?"

"Who is it? Who is so jealous of you? What a conscienceless person!"

Song Mingli was prepared for the fact that marrying Prince Jing would not be smooth.

Coupled with Pei Yuqing's aggressive attitude, she would think it was abnormal if everything was calm.

"Zi Su, go find Qi Xu quickly and tell him about the situation here. Ask him to bring a few skilled embroiderers to take a look." Song Mingli gave the order calmly without changing his expression.

"Yes, Miss!" Zi Su hurried to do it.

Song Mingli looked at Nanxing again, "Is there any way to deal with this woodfish?"

"There is a way. Miss, do you want to be alive or dead?" Nanxing nodded firmly.

"Ah?" Song Mingli was stunned by her question.

Nanxing said as a matter of course, "The fish can be used as medicine to treat children's diseases and urinary obstruction."

The corner of Song Mingli's mouth twitched. What she wanted was for her wedding dress to be intact. She didn't care whether the bug was dead or alive.

"We don't have to be so frugal with herbs!" Song Mingli said, "We have money, we can buy them if we need them."

"It's best to kill all the bugs and prevent them from leaving eggs on them."

Nanxing is indeed a pity to waste medicinal materials.

She actually sighed with regret and nodded, "Don't worry, Miss. I promise I can get rid of it completely."

Song Mingli nodded.

Jiang asked someone to take the box and deal with the bookworms in the box first.

"No, Eunuch He hasn't seen it yet. If we deal with it now, how can we let Eunuch He intuitively feel the seriousness of this matter?"

Song Mingli quickly stopped the servant and took Jiang's arm. "If you feel unwell, go back and rest. I can handle it here."

Jiang looked at Song Mingli deeply, and she patted the back of Song Mingli's hand lightly.

"These years... you have suffered so much."

Her dainty little daughter was missing.

In his place was Song Mingli, who was calm and composed and remained unperturbed in the face of adversity.

"Mother is fine. I'm also waiting for Eunuch He to come back." Jiang couldn't leave with peace of mind.

She asked the maid to support her and wait in the room.

Jingyou really chased He Hongxi back.

He didn't say anything in front of others, but just whispered a few words into He Hongxi's ear.

He Hongxi's face immediately changed and he didn't need to invite him again.

He Hongxi immediately said, "Turn around and go back to the Song Mansion."

When He Hongxi saw the bookworms in the box, his scalp immediately went numb.

"This... How could such a thing happen!" He Hongxi was shocked, "What about the wedding dress?"

Nanxing held up the wedding dress and asked him to see it.

He Hongxi reached out to touch the wedding dress, and he had already seen the small holes caused by moths on the dress.

But thinking that there might still be bugs on the clothes, he immediately retracted his outstretched hand.

"We will go back to the palace now and report this matter to the emperor." He Hongxi frowned.

Song Mingli was just about to keep him and wait a little longer.

The "back-up plan" should be here soon.

Before Song Mingli could speak, a maid came to report, "Madam, Miss, Princess Yuqing of Xili Kingdom is here to visit."

"If you are not in a hurry to return and report, please take a rest in the side hall."

"Serve good tea to the father-in-law." Song Mingli ordered.

He Hongxi narrowed his eyes, thinking that he was being invited to "watch a show".

"Okay, now that we have figured it out, we can explain it clearly when we return to the palace." He Hongxi went to sit in the side hall.

Pei Yuqing brought with her a few noble ladies from Kyoto whom she had just made friends, and they came over chatting and laughing.

"I heard that the emperor bestowed a wedding dress on Miss Song. Congratulations to Miss Song!" Pei Yuqing looked at Song Mingli with coldness in her beautiful eyes.

"There is such an honor to marry for the second time. Throughout history, only Miss Song has ever had such an honor."

Song Mingli chuckled, "The Song family is lucky to have caught up with a wise ruler in a prosperous era."

"It's lucky. We are all so envious!" Pei Yuqing said.

"Yeah, that's really good luck."

"What a blessing from the Emperor!" the ladies echoed.

"Miss Song has such great favor and luck, wouldn't you mind letting us take advantage of her?" Pei Yuqing said with a smile, "Can you let us also take a look at the wedding dress bestowed by the Emperor? How luxurious it is?"

Jiang was also in the side hall, sitting with Eunuch He.

Hearing this, the expressions of the people in the side hall changed slightly.

"Yes, that is the princess' wedding dress given by the emperor!"

"We can only watch the princess' wedding from afar. Sometimes, it's hard to even take a glimpse from a distance. Now, with the help of Miss Song, we can open our eyes and take a closer look." The noble ladies followed Pei Yuqing's words.

Song Mingli looked at Pei Yuqing and these noble ladies.

Pei Yuqing must have come here for the wedding dress.

These noble ladies are from Beili. They must be unaware of the situation and were just being used as pawns by Pei Yuqing.

Of course, they themselves enjoyed watching the fun as well.

After all, Pei Yuqing specifically requested to marry Prince Jing in the palace, and that she wanted to compete with her, a twice-married woman, for a husband. This was a rumor that spread throughout Kyoto.

"This wedding dress is not an ordinary dress." Song Mingli said seriously, "It cannot be easily shown to outsiders."

"If Princess Yuqing and you guys want to see it, please wait until the wedding day."

Pei Yuqing sneered, "Why are you so stingy! It doesn't hurt to look at it!"

"I'm not being stingy. If Princess doesn't believe me, you can ask the noble ladies of Beili. Can you just take out your wedding dress and show it to outsiders?" Song Mingli looked at the others coldly.

After Pei Yuqing offended someone, he might go back to Xili Kingdom.

Even if she married and stayed, she would still be a princess of Xili Kingdom, with a different status.

But these noble ladies are all from Beili and will have to live in Kyoto in the future.

Are they willing to offend the future Princess Jing just for the sake of watching the fun?
