"Princess, these old women are just talking nonsense. You should punish them severely to serve as a warning to others. Why do you have to report it to the Ministry of Punishment?" the old lady said in a deep voice.

"Princess...what are you doing? Why are you making such a fuss!" Princess Ruan of Zhennan, who came upon hearing the news, was furious. This Xiao Yunxi really had no sense of the overall situation. Just a few servants gossiping about something and it turned out to be so ugly.

"Grandmother, mother, it was my grandfather who asked the emperor for a marriage in Chengqian Palace. On the night of the prince's wedding, he went to the border for garrison duty. He was gone for two years. Now that he has returned, rumors have spread that he has divorced his wife and had an illegitimate child. If I pretend to be deaf and dumb, how can my mother, the eldest princess, and my father, the Marquis of Ningguo, save their reputation!"

"Marriage is a marriage of friendship between two families, not enmity. Since the prince hates me so much, why don't we just divorce and live happily ever after."

The old lady and Princess Zhennan were both shocked. How could a marriage granted by the emperor be divorced?

"Princess, listen to what you are saying." The old lady quickly calmed down. The day Xiao Yunxi left the Prince of Zhennan's Mansion would definitely be the day when the royal family would take action against the Prince of Zhennan's Mansion.

She forced a smile and said, "Princess, don't talk nonsense! How can a young couple not quarrel?"

He even took Xiao Yunxi's hand affectionately and said, "You and Jing Ting are married by the emperor's order, so you must not divorce."

Xiao Yunxi curled her lips slightly in a cold voice, without refutation. She knew very well in her heart that what the old lady said was the truth.

However, even if they cannot divorce, they cannot live a good life.

From now on, we must make sure that the water life in Prince Zhennan’s mansion is hot and comfortable.

"Good boy, I know you've been wronged, but you can't talk about divorce anymore. Don't worry, I will help you deal with Jing Ting and make him apologize to you."

Crying, making a fuss, and even hanging themselves are all attempts to win the favor of their husbands, and royal ladies are no exception.

She must persuade her grandson to consummate the marriage with the princess as soon as possible. With a child, no matter how aggrieved the princess is, she will not make too much trouble.

"Yunxi, you are the mistress of the house, so you will be in charge of these servants. Give them severe punishments to serve as a warning to others, how about that?" The old lady only hoped that Xiao Yunxi would calm down and not make the matter public.

"For making false accusations against the mistress and slandering the prince, they should be punished with twenty strokes of the cane, their tongues cut off, and sold off." Xiao Yunxi said nonchalantly.

The old lady was shocked. Beating with a stick, cutting off the tongue, and then driving them out of the house? Then these servants would have no choice but to die.

The princess has always been gentle and docile, and she is kind to her servants, but today she was so harsh.

"Grandmother, mother."

Lu Jingting is here.

Hearing the sound, everyone turned around to look at him.

Xiao Yunxi glanced at Lu Jingting coldly, then turned her gaze away.

Lu Jingting looked at Xiao Yunxi and thought to himself that she was worthy of being the most beautiful woman in the Dali period: her skin was fair and flawless, her face was very bright, her figure was enchanting, but she did not look frivolous at all. She was like a blooming violet flower, beautiful and moving. However, her eyes were too cold, which formed a sharp contrast with her beauty.

"Come over here and apologize to Yun Xi!" The old lady glared at Lu Jingting fiercely.

"Changle greets the prince." Xiao Yunxi said in a distant and cold tone.

Seeing Yun Xi's cold attitude, the old lady secretly thought that it was not good, "These dog servants actually slandered the master, saying that you want to divorce your wife and remarry, and even said that you have an illegitimate child!"

Fearing that Lu Jingting would lose his temper, she gently pinched his arm and continued to persuade him, "Go back with the princess quickly and explain everything carefully. Don't hurt the relationship between husband and wife."

"Grandmother, Mother, and Prince, Changle is a little tired. She'll go back and rest first." Without waiting for their consent, Xiao Yunxi stood up and walked away leisurely.

"Mother, look at how arrogant she is! She doesn't take you seriously at all!" Ruan looked at Xiao Yunxi's back and felt so angry that her heart ached. The royal princess is so unruly!

"She is a first-rank princess, and her uncle is the current emperor. Naturally, she has the capital to be proud. No matter how unconvinced you are, you have to endure it!" The old lady was also uncomfortable, but after all, it was the Zhennan Palace that was not honest. She was really afraid that Lu Jingting would do something else, so she said sternly: "If you still want to take those two children to the palace to raise them, then you should be honest and show your kindness to the princess, and don't make her angry again!"

Lu Jingting frowned impatiently, but thinking of the future of the two children...

"it is good."

Never mind. After all, she is the principal wife. We cannot break off relations with the royal family now. It is just some superficial work. Just do it.

When Lu Jingting arrived at Feiyu Pavilion, Xiao Yunxi was preparing to have dinner.

"Princess, the mother of those two children, Lin Wan'er, is my distant cousin. She had a tragic life. She lost her parents when she was young, and her husband died of illness a few years ago. She became a widow at a young age. In the next two days, I will bring the mother and her two children to my house."

Lu Jingting spoke directly, his eyes fixed on Xiao Yunxi's cheek.

"I said two years ago that you are not my Lu Jingting's chosen wife, so naturally I will not consummate the marriage and have children with you. It would be better for me to register these two children in your name and make them my legitimate sons and daughters. It will be beneficial to you and not harmful."

Xiao Yunxi's expression was calm, without even a frown on her brows, "Oh."

Lu Jingting was surprised. So calm? Not angry or sad, as if he had just heard something insignificant.

Xiao Yunxi raised her head and looked at Lu Jingting.

He was very good-looking, handsome, with deep eyes and sword-like eyebrows. He stood upright at the door, with an indescribable charisma...

No wonder I was so stubborn in my previous life. This bastard did have a good appearance, but now, I just feel disgusted!

Xiao Yunxi put down her bowl and chopsticks and asked coldly, "Is there anything else, my lord?"

"...fine..."

"Then let's see the prince off respectfully. Changle still needs to have dinner." Xiao Yunxi sent the man away decisively.

"..."

He, the prince of Zhennan Palace, was actually sent off by his own wife? !

Lu Jingting gritted his teeth secretly, turned around and left without saying a word.

"Princess! The Prince of Zhennan's Mansion is going too far. Do they think you are a fool?!" Chunxiao looked at Lu Jingting's back, panting angrily.

"Princess..." Xia He looked at her princess worriedly.

"...Fool..." Xiao Yunxi tightly grasped the chopsticks in her hand. In her previous life, wasn't she a fool? No matter how cold and disgusted Lu Jingting was, she tried every means to actively seek peace, took care of Lu Yiming and Lu Pingting with all her heart, and devoted her whole life to the Zhennan Palace. In the end, she was just making wedding clothes for others and got nothing!

In this life, she will never make the same mistake again!

"Don't be angry, your princess is not stupid." Xiao Yunxi gently comforted the two maids.

Since you are raising children, just raise more.

After all, everything is afraid of comparison.

Only by comparing with pearls and jade can people know more about the unbearableness of Lu Yiming and his sister!

Didn’t Lu Jingting want his own son to inherit the title?

Then first make him childless and then let the throne fall into the hands of an irrelevant person.

The feeling of drawing water with a bamboo basket and getting nothing is really uncomfortable!

Xiao Yunxi stroked the teacup with her slender fingers and asked softly, "Chun Xiao, have you found out how many children of the right age there are in the clan?"

"My lord, I have heard that besides the brother and sister, there are three other brothers. One is six years old and named Lu Yiye. One is four years old and named Lu Yize. They are both about to be out of the fifth generation of mourning. They live in the palace. There is another one..."
