Chu Yunfei didn't recall it for too long.
After Bao Chan and Sheng Xia packed up their things, she summoned the most capable and senior Sister Xiong in the palace, and then she took two personal maids and got on the carriage back to the Chu family.
No one stopped him on the way out of the palace.
One year after marrying into Prince Zhan's palace, everyone in the palace knew that Prince War doted on his wife. No one dared to neglect her as a princess. Once she entered the palace, she had the power of the inner house and managed the inner courtyard in an orderly manner.
No matter it was the front yard or the back house, no one was disrespectful to her, from the housekeeper and the nun in charge, to the maids who were the assistants - except for Forsythia who thought she was hugging Chu Yunjiao's thigh.
However, the peace that lasted for a year was broken by a letter of divorce today.
Chu Yunfei sat in the carriage, closing her eyes and thinking about Rong Cang's attitude towards her before and after their marriage, thinking about his sudden change of heart, and felt that there must be a hidden secret.
"Princess." Baochan sat in the carriage, frowning slightly, "Now that you are returning to the Chu family, won't it give the second lady a chance to be alone with the prince?"
Chu Yunfei opened her eyes, her eyes filled with coldness: "If she can really seize this opportunity, that's what she is capable of."
"The prince must have been bewitched by her and was confused for a moment." Mother Xiong followed the carriage and said in a calm voice, "Princess, there is no need to worry."
One is the legitimate wife and princess whom the matchmaker is marrying, and the other is the concubine who was secretly married.
They are not even qualified to be compared together.
Even if the King of War really had other ideas, the emperor would not allow him to divorce his wife, let alone marry an unworthy concubine as his concubine.
Chu Yunfei has nothing to worry about.
She came home not because of Rong Cang, but to let Chu Yunjiao understand her identity.
The carriage soon arrived outside the Chu family gate.
"The eldest lady is back! The eldest lady is back!" The servant's announcement sounded in the Chu family's mansion, and was passed on one after another, "Go and report to Madam, the eldest lady is back!"
"What are you shouting for? There are no rules at all." The butler came out, frowned and yelled, "Call me Princess!"
The concierge's announcement immediately changed to: "The princess is back! The princess is back!"
The housekeeper and his servants stood neatly in two rows outside the gate, respectfully welcoming the princess back to the house.
Shengxia opened the curtain and helped his master out of the carriage with Baochan.
As soon as Chu Yunfei stepped across the threshold, she saw Ji, the head of the Chu family, leading someone to greet her. She saluted according to royal rules: "Princess..."
"Mother!" Chu Yunfei quickly stepped forward and raised her hand to stop her greeting. Then her eyes turned red and she couldn't help but choked out, "Mother..."
Mrs. Chu's heart sank and she quickly asked: "Fei'er, what's going on?"
"Mother, I'm fine." Chu Yunfei took a deep breath and controlled her emotional fluctuations, "Please mother go to the main hall and call all the servants of the Chu family over."
Mrs. Chu looked slightly shocked: "Fei'er?"
Chu Yunfei's voice was cold: "Someone in the family has exceeded their identity. My daughter wants her mother to teach her the rules and let her recognize her identity."
"What are you talking about..." Mrs. Chu looked hesitant, "Chu Yunjiao?"
Even though her husband favored his concubines, she was the mistress of the house and she was well aware of the tricks of those concubines and concubines.
Who could make his daughter so angry, and who is a member of the family besides Chu Yunjiao?
Chu Yunfei nodded.
So Mrs. Chu didn't ask any more questions, and immediately ordered her personal maid: "Gather everyone to the front hall, there must be no mistakes!"
"Yes, madam." Nanny Yang took the order and left.
The mother and daughter soon arrived at the front hall, and Mrs. Chu said worriedly: "Fei'er, what happened? Why didn't the War King come back with you? He..."
"He is staying with Chu Yunjiao at the moment." Chu Yunfei said, walking into the front hall, "I may personally send Chu Yunjiao back later."
What?
Mrs. Chu's expression changed.
Chu Yunfei slowly turned around and looked out of the hall expressionlessly: "I came back today because I have something to deal with in public."
She was originally the legitimate daughter of the Chu family, and she was married to the King of War for another year. Naturally, her eyebrows were filled with a bit of awe-inspiring demeanor.
The servants who came one after another lowered their heads involuntarily.
Seeing more and more people, Chu Yunfei finally said coldly as if declaring a crime: "Chu Yunjiao, the concubine of the Chu family, has no shame. She has no words of matchmaking or orders from her parents. She openly has an affair with her brother-in-law. Passed. Should such an immoral crime be dealt with by family law?"
As soon as these words came out, the expressions of the servants changed.
With your brother-in-law?
What the eldest lady means is that the second lady of the Chu family is having an affair with the King of War?
"Of course it must be dealt with according to family law." Mrs. Chu came back to her senses, her face was cold, "Fei'er, did she really do such a disgraceful thing?"
Chu Yunfei nodded.
"What a misfortune for our family." Mrs. Chu was furious, "The Chu family is a dignified and noble family, and such an uncultured and shameless thing has come out. It is my dereliction of duty as the matron of the house!"
"The eldest lady..." A nun outside the hall secretly looked at Mrs. Chu and spoke cautiously, "The second young lady and the eldest lady used to have a close relationship. Is there any misunderstanding?"
"Misunderstanding?" Chu Yunfei sneered, "She instigated the King of War to divorce his wife so that she could take the position of the mistress of the house. Is this a misunderstanding?"
As soon as the words fell, everyone outside the hall was shocked and in an uproar.
"What?"
"How dare the second young lady instigate the King of War to divorce his wife?"
"The King of War is deeply in love with the eldest lady, how could he divorce his wife?"
"Is the second lady possessed by evil spirits? How dare you be so whimsical?"
"This is simply unreasonable!" Mrs. Chu slapped the table, her eyebrows filled with frost, "A lowly concubine is so stupid that she can't recognize her own identity, and even dares to think of her own brother-in-law? She simply doesn't know how to live or die!"
Mammy's servants outside the hall looked at each other with alarmed and uneasy expressions.
At first they couldn't believe that the second young lady dared to do such a treasonous thing and have an affair without being married. If someone reported her, she would die.
Secondly, the concubine has overstepped her bounds, and Xiao wants to become a prince, which is even more whimsical.
The person Chu Yun Jiaoxiao was thinking about was his brother-in-law.
Any of these would be enough to kill her several times.
"Jiao'er is unjust!" Suddenly a woman dressed in gorgeous clothes burst into the crowd and walked quickly into the hall. "Although I and Jiao'er have low status, I have always followed the rules and taught her to be dignified and virtuous. Jiao'er will never You may do something so immoral, please don’t get misunderstood——”
"I saw it with my own eyes, how can it be false?" Chu Yunfei said sternly, "Chu Yunjiao is at the Zhanwang Mansion right now."
"Impossible!" Aunt Chen denied flatly, "Jiao'er has always stayed in her room and has never gone out."
How dare you speak harshly when death is imminent?
Chu Yunfei's eyes were like daggers, staring at Aunt Chen's still charming face, thinking of Chu Yunjiao's provocative words: "Your mother is not favored, you are not as shameless as your mother, are you?"
A good word for not being favored, a good word for being shameless.
Who did a concubine borrow the courage from to be so disrespectful to her mistress and sister?
"Aunt Chen is best at telling lies with her eyes open." Chu Yunfei's expression was cold, "Do you think I would deliberately frame her?"
Aunt Chen's expression changed: "That's not what I meant -"
"Kneel down." Mrs. Chu suddenly said.
Aunt Chen's expression froze on her face and she looked at her in disbelief: "What did you say?"
