Chapter 431: Just Like a Slap on the Face

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Yu Xiaoxiao’s eyes were red, and her heart burned with hatred as she asked,

“Father, you… are you blaming me?”

‘In the past, Father doted on me the most! He couldn’t bear to see me suffer at all! But now, he’s actually taking Concubine Wu and Yu Yunxi’s side?’

Concubine Wu buried her face in Yu Feng’s arms and began to cry as she said, “Second Master, please don’t say such things to Xiao… to the Second Miss. It’s indeed my fault. My status is low. Even if I care about the Second Miss, I shouldn’t have broken the etiquette. If you want to punish someone, you should punish me.”

Yu Yunxi, who was watching from the side, said lightly to Qian Qing and Meng Xia, “Are you watching? This kind of show is much more interesting than the shows that actors put on outside…”

Meng Xia: .

Qian Qing:

‘The Eldest Princess’ hobby is really unique…’

“You b*tch, don’t try to sow discord between me and my father!” Yu Xiaoxiao screamed. She was already angry, to begin with. She naturally could not hold it in any longer when she saw Concubine Wu behaving in such a manner.

Meanwhile, Wang Deshun’s expression was very dark when he saw the chaos.

‘As it turns out, the Commandery Princess is such a person behind closed doors. I have to report this to the Empress when I return… Someone who doesn’t know when to retreat and argues with her father’s concubine like a shrew will definitely be a terrible daughter-in-law and wife. Who knows if she’ll implicate the Crown Prince in the future…

Then, Wang Deshun looked at Yu Yunxi discreetly from the corners of his eyes. When he saw how calm and composed she was with a noble temperament, he thought to himself, ‘On the contrary, the Eldest Princess is really good. Only such a woman will be able to help the Crown Prince.’

With this thought in mind, Wang Deshun smiled sincerely and said kindly to Yu Yunxi, “Eldest Princess, it was a misunderstanding earlier. I didn’t have time to speak, and the Commandery Princess assumed the gifts were for her. In fact, the Crown Prince specially prepared these things for you. I hope you like them.”

On the other side, Yu Xiaoxiao and the others had already fallen silent after being reprimanded by Old Madam Zhou. As such, they all heard Wang Deshun’s words clearly.

Yu Xiaoxiao glared at Yu Yunxi with a venomous gaze.

‘This b*tch! Why is she snatching everything from me? Ever since she returned, not only did I lose my status in the King of Zhenbei’s Residence, but I also lost the Empress and the Crown Prince’s favor! Why can’t this b*tch just die?,

Although Yu Yunxi was not looking at Yu Xiaoxiao, she could clearly sense Yu Xiaoxiao’s murderous intent. She smiled with a hint of mockery before she said meaningfully, “Eunuch Wang, please tell the Crown Prince that I already have a dress. I don’t need him to send me a dress. Also, tell him not to spend any effort on me. He won’t get anything from me.”

Wang Deshun was a smart person. He naturally understood Yu Yunxi’s words. A chill ran up his spine as he thought to himself, ‘The Eldest Princess seems to have guessed the Crown Prince and the Empress’ intentions…’

Nonetheless, Wang Deshun continued to persuade Yu Yunxi to accept the dress, saying, “Eldest Princess, this is the Crown Prince’s kind intention. It’s made from the best silk and pearls.”

Yu Xiaoxiao was filled with resentment. She said meaningfully, “Cousin is the honorable and noble Eldest Princess, after all. She has everything she wants. Perhaps she doesn’t like what the Crown Prince has given her…’

Yu Xiaoxiao naturally could not wait to sow discord between Yu Yunxi and the Crown Prince.

At this moment, a cold voice rang out.

“Indeed. How can this dress be worthy of the Eldest Princess?”

Soon after, Luo Xiuran’s tall and slender figure appeared before everyone’s

eyes. More than twenty people stood behind him, carrying more than ten

boxes.

Yu Feng questioned, “Who are you? How dare you barge into the King of

Zhenbei’s Residence?”

Luo Xiuran ignored Yu Feng. He walked toward Yu Yunxi and pretended to be serious as he bowed and said, “I’m Luo Xiuran, the young marquis of Tianxia. I came here to deliver a small gift from the Prince Regent of Tianxia. Please accept the gift, Eldest Princess.”

As soon as Luo Xiuran finished speaking, the attendants opened up the boxes, revealing rolls of silk and satin, a beautiful dress, a moon-white veil, and lots of jewelry. The light from the jewelry almost blinded everyone from the second branch of the Yu family.

‘Can these things be considered a small gift?’

‘Did he say these things are from the Prince Regent?’

‘That fiend is in the capital of Xichu?’

Many people shivered when they thought about Feng Yili. Although they had never met him, they had heard about his terrifying deeds.

Wang Deshun looked at the gifts and then at the dress the Crown Prince sent over as his expression turned stiff.

Initially, the Crown Prince wanted to send more things over. However, the Empress said that Yu Yunxi had not been very obedient lately. She also said that if they treated Yu Yunxi too well, it would be even more difficult for them to control her in the future. Hence, in the end, they only sent a dress over.

At this moment, only two words were left in Wang Deshun’s mind: How embarrassing!

In an attempt to comfort himself, Wang Deshun thought, ‘It’s fine, it’s fine. Didn’t the Eldest Princess say that she already has a dress? Since she has already used that reason to reject the Crown Prince’s gift, she’ll naturally reject the gifts from the Prince Regent of Tianxia as well…’

Alas, Wang Deshun’s smile froze when he heard what Yu Yunxi said next.

Yu Yunxi smiled as she said, “Then I’ll have trouble Young Marquis Luo to tell the Prince Regent that I like the gifts very much.”

Since her husband sent her these gifts, how could she not accept them?

Luo Xiuran nodded, relieved. With this, he would be able to report his success to Feng Yili.

Suddenly, another voice rang out.

“Since the Eldest Princess has already accepted the gifts from the Prince Regent of Tianxia, can the Eldest Princess also accept the gifts from the Third Prince of Beixiao?”

In the next moment, another group of people arrived with more than ten shiny boxes.

A young man stepped forward and said, “Greetings, Eldest Princess. I’m Jing

Hongxue.”

Yu Yunxi asked, “Your master is the Third Prince?”

“That’s right,” Jing Hongxue replied with a smile and a nod.

“These gifts…”

Yu Yunxi felt a headache coming on at this moment.

‘Why did Xiao Shici send so many gifts after sending me back?’

Jing Hongxue pretended to look pitiful as he said, “Eldest Princess, these gifts are from the Third Prince. If you don’t accept them, he’ll be sad.”

Jing Hongxue had a baby face, to begin with. With a pitiful expression, he looked even more like a child, making it hard to refuse him.

Yu Yunxi said helplessly, “Alright. Then thank the Third Prince for these generous gifts on my behalf.”

No matter what, Xiao Shici was her godbrother after all. She could not refuse his gifts.

Meanwhile, Luo Xiuran watched from the side with a bewildered expression on his face.

‘When did the Third Prince of Beixiao suddenly appear? Moreover, from the looks of it, Yunxi has a good relationship with him! Yili, your position is in danger!’

At the same time, Yu Xiaoxiao and the others looked at the gifts. There were so many of them that there was hardly enough space for them. All of them burned with jealousy.

However, the gift-giving was not over yet.

A servant rushed in at this moment and reported, “E-eldest Princess, there are people here again!”

“Who is it this time?” Yu Yunxi asked helplessly.

“They are people from the King of Youshan’s Residence,” the servant said,

“There are also people from the Murong family..”
