"Madam Xu, what's the result?" Rong Wanling asked first.

Nanny Xu looked around, and all the noble ladies present felt a chill. She had been serving the emperor since she was a child and was deeply trusted by him. No one dared to look down on her.

Finally, Aunt Xu said, "I checked everyone's gifts and found no problems."

Everyone felt relieved, but at this moment.

"But..." Madam Xu turned to Ye Yunzi and continued, "The cloak that Miss Ye brought..."

Rong Wanling was secretly delighted, the critical moment had finally arrived.

Ye Yunzi, you won't be able to escape this time.

A hint of pride flashed across Rong Wanling's eyes, and Su Yu's heart also moved, revealing a tacit smile.

"The cloak sent by Miss Ye has not been inspected yet, and the coat sent by Miss Rong has not been opened yet." Nanny Xu said calmly, "I came to ask if I can open the cloak for inspection."

Haven't checked yet?

Rong Wanling frowned slightly. She originally thought that Ye Yunzi would not be able to escape this time, but it didn't matter. The result would be the same anyway.

She nodded in agreement and said seriously, "Be sure to check carefully. Don't be careless when it comes to matters concerning the princess."

"As ordered."

Madam Xu then invited the best embroiderers in the palace. They took the clothes apart to check them, and then restored them to their original state. Their skills were superb and there was not a single flaw.

Everyone stared at it intently. The cloak Ye Yunzi gave was so exquisite and gorgeous that it was amazing.

The embroiderer carefully untied the thread from one side. As the weather was getting colder, there were some items hidden inside the cloak, and Aunt Xu was worried that there was something wrong with the filling inside the cloak.

Rong Wanling glanced at Ye Yunzi, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, as if she had foreseen her panic.

Ye Yunzi remained calm and watched nervously like everyone else.

The embroiderer took apart the cloak and showed it to Aunt Xu. Aunt Xu leaned over to take a closer look, then reached out and touched the filling inside.

"This is……"

"Oh my, what is this?" Miss Lian exclaimed in surprise: "It seems to be some kind of hair, it can't be cat hair!"

"Cat hair?"

Hearing the word "cat hair", Aunt Xu's face immediately became serious. She withdrew her hand, stood up straight, and turned to another cloak.

Another embroiderer found cat hair after taking it apart.

Rong Wanling's confident smile froze in an instant, and she stared at the two pieces of clothing in disbelief.

and many more!

Her smile completely disappeared and her face gradually turned pale.

Madam Xu and Miss Lian came over and looked at the cloak. This was the birthday gift she had carefully prepared!

How could there be cat hair in her custom-made cloak? It should have been found in Ye Yunzi's cloak. She had arranged it herself, so there shouldn't be any mistakes.

How is this going?

Rong Wanling's body shook and she looked at Ye Yunzi involuntarily.

Ye Yunzi stood quietly in the crowd, with cold eyes and a sneer on her lips.

"You... it's you..."

Rong Wanling was frightened, her face turned even paler, and her whole body was shaking, as if she had fallen into an ice cave.

"Miss Rong, what are your plans?"

Nanny Xu sneered and lifted a corner of the cloak, revealing the high-quality down mixed with some gray hair, which was particularly conspicuous.

"No... I used high-quality cotton, how could this happen..."

Rong Wanling's heart was shocked and she suddenly understood everything.

It must have been Ye Yunzi's doing. She discovered the problem and secretly swapped the fillers of the two people.

But how did she know there was something wrong with the cloak?

She stared at Ye Yunzi closely, but Ye Yunzi still maintained an aloof attitude and stood there.

"Ye Yunzi... No, it wasn't me. It's all Ye Yunzi's fault..." Rong Wanling muttered softly, but she was also scared. How could things become so strange? Why did Ye Yunzi seem to have expected everything?

Nanny Xu was so angry that she was shaking all over. Fortunately, she discovered the things in the cloak in time, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.

"How do you explain it, Miss Rong? There is cat hair mixed in the high-quality down. It is obviously not accidental." Everyone in the palace is experienced. Nanny Xu has been in the palace for many years and can tell at a glance that the cat hair was put there intentionally.

"I..." Rong Wanling's face became worse and worse.

Ye Yunzi lowered her head slightly, it seemed that Rong Wanling had indeed done something.

When checking the accounts with the owner of the clothing store, she noticed that Rong Wanling had also customized a birthday gift and had gone in and out of the clothing store many times, claiming that she was checking the workmanship.

The boss paused before leaving and revealed that he would replace the padding of the two men's capes.

"Why do you do this, Miss? You use high-quality down, while Miss Rong uses ordinary cotton. There is a huge difference in value between them!"

"fine."

Ye Yunzi replied calmly.

If Rong Wanling can stop causing trouble, this gift will be considered as given to her; but if she does something naughty again, it will be her own fault.

Although Ye Yunzi didn't know what Rong Wanling had done to the filler, from Rong Wanling's abnormal behavior today, she had guessed a little bit that she must be playing tricks behind the scenes again.

When I looked at Rong Wanling again, her face was pale, her lips were trembling slightly, and she was full of shock and fear.

Ye Yunzi's eyes were calm, and she silently thought to herself: You asked for all this. She doesn't cause trouble, but she's not afraid of it either. Once provoked, she will fight back at all costs.

Ye Yunzi had a strong personality and was known for her decisiveness throughout her life.

"How could this happen? There are no cats in the Duke's Mansion, so how could there be cat hair mixed in there?" Su Yu's heart tightened when he saw this. It seemed that those weird things happened again.

Originally, she planned to stay out of it, but now looking at Rong Wanling's situation, she thought that as the daughter of the Duke's Mansion, this incident might eventually be downplayed. If she could stand up and speak for her at this time, perhaps they could deepen their relationship.

It is obviously a good choice to rescue the young lady of the Duke's Mansion in exchange for her trust.

"Madam Xu, this matter must be thoroughly investigated. Rong Wanling would never harm the princess." Su Yu walked to Rong Wanling with a firm tone.

Nanny Xu didn't dare to be too tough, after all, the woman in front of her was the daughter of the Duke's Mansion.

Just as everyone noticed the cat hair found in the inner core, a woman in the crowd turned even paler, her body trembled, and she clenched her fists so tightly that her nails almost embedded in her palms.

Ye Yunzi caught sight of her and calmly walked up to Aunt Xu and said, "Indeed, this matter requires careful investigation."

Hearing Ye Yunzi's voice, Rong Wanling looked up in surprise.

What exactly is Ye Yunzi up to?

She would never help herself!

"Although keeping cats has become popular in the capital recently, the number of cats is small. Most of these cats are imported from far away and are expensive, which ordinary people cannot afford, so there are not many families who keep cats." Ye Yunzi said calmly, glancing at a corner of the crowd.

A woman was trembling, her shoulders hunched up, wishing there was a hole in the ground to hide in.
