After sending Ji Ziyi and her mother away, Chu Yunfei stood on the street and watched for a long time, suddenly feeling melancholy in her heart: "In the eyes of the world, my daughter may be really deviant."
It is said that at home, you obey your father, and when you get married, you obey your husband.
But she had never been completely obedient to her father. After getting married, she was not humble and submissive to her husband Rong Cang, and even slapped him for the divorce letter.
How can the world allow such a woman who challenges the dignity of men to exist?
Rong Cang held her hand: "Do what you have to do and don't care what the world thinks."
Chu Yunfei nodded. After her mother left, she could feel at ease. She didn't have to worry about whether she would be wronged again in the Chu family, or that she would become her weakness, or that she would be involved in the fight for the heirloom. In the midst of turmoil.
It’s just that we have a long journey ahead, so I don’t know when we will meet again.
After the group of people completely disappeared from sight and could no longer be seen, Chu Yunfei turned around and got on the carriage, and headed back to the palace with Rong Cang.
As soon as the carriage stopped outside the gate, Butler Cheng stepped forward to report the news: "Just now, Grand Tutor Qin sent an invitation and said that His Highness, Prince of War, was invited to come over and discuss important matters."
Rong Cang's expression was calm: "I understand."
"There are also posts from Prince An and Prince Kang. Their mansions have been repaired and they will hold a housewarming banquet at the palace in three days. The prince and princess will be invited to have a drink at the palace." Butler Cheng bowed his head, "The post asked Xiong Grandma sent it to Shuanghuayuan."
Chu Yunfei smiled lightly: "It seems that I have been very busy these days."
Shuanghuayuan already has four invitations, one from Madam Xie, one from Taifu Qin, and two from the prince. I wonder if there will be any other invitations coming next.
But what is certain is that when the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty truly realized that Prince Zhan's palace had been involved in the struggle for the heir apparent, it was obviously impossible for them to keep quiet.
This thought flashed through their minds. Before Rong Cang and Chu Yunfei could step through the door, the sound of horse hooves came from far and near.
The two turned to look.
The visitor stopped his mount in front of the dismounting stone, hurriedly dismounted, and ran straight to the gate: "Ninth brother, ninth brother and sister!"
Rong Cang and Chu Yunfei looked at each other, their expressions calm and emotionless.
The person who came was King Chen, with a hurried look and an anxious and ugly expression.
"Ninth brother." King Chen arrived in front of the court and raised his hands to Rong Cang, "I need help from my ninth brother and sister."
Chu Yunfei looked calm: "Prince Chen's palace is full of talents, why do you need my help?"
"Ying'er got angry with me and she had to make peace with me." King Chen smiled bitterly, "I...I really have no choice. Please help my ninth younger brother and sister to persuade her. You are a woman and you and your ninth younger brother and his wife are in harmony. , trusting each other, she will definitely listen to what you say."
"Princess Chen wants to reconcile?" Chu Yunfei raised her eyebrows casually, "There has been a trend of reconciliation in the capital recently?"
King Chen frowned: "Is there anyone else with Li?"
"It has nothing to do with Prince Chen." Chu Yun Fei's eyes were delicate and his tone was indifferent, "Princess Chen is not close to me, so I'm afraid I won't be able to help you."
"Ninth brother and sister, do you really want to die without saving me?" King Chen pursed his lips, with a bit of pleading, "Brother Wei did some inappropriate things before, but those were not from my original intention. If I have offended the ninth brother and sister, Brother, I sincerely apologize to you, and I hope that my nine siblings will stop holding grudges against me."
After saying that, he bowed deeply.
Rong Cang looked indifferent: "Princess Chen had a dispute with you. The problem lies with you. Just apologize to her and make up for it. Naturally, nothing will happen. There is no need to involve irrelevant people."
After that, she held Chu Yunfei's hand to enter the door, not intending to pay attention to his request.
"Ninth brother, do you want to kneel down and beg you for my brother?!" King Chen's tone suddenly rose, as if he had lost control due to extreme anxiety, "My father has been lukewarm towards my mother and concubine recently. If I have to worry about my family affairs, If we make a big fuss and make him upset, he will only hate us, mother and son, more. If we accuse our mother and concubine of not being able to teach our children well, our situation will only become more difficult! Won't the ninth brother be affected? Anyway, , she is your mother-in-law, and I am your brother, is the ninth brother really so cold and heartless?"
When Rong Cang was about to speak, Chu Yunfei squeezed his hand calmly, then turned around and looked at King Chen seriously: "Brother Sixth Emperor said that Rong Cang is cold and heartless. I don't agree with this statement. After all, you As his elder brother, he has never fulfilled his responsibilities as an elder brother and has never shown any kindness and kindness that an elder brother should have in these years. What qualifications does His Highness have to accuse Rong Cang?"
King Chen's face looked a little ugly: "I..."
"It's not impossible for me to persuade Princess Chen, but there are conditions." Chu Yunfei's eyes were calm, "Prince Chen will stay in Prince Zhan's Mansion, and you can leave after I come back."
King Chen's expression changed: "Brother and sister, what do you mean?"
"It's not interesting." Chu Yunfei smiled faintly, "I have a special health now, so if I don't help you, you say we are unkind, but helping you is not what I want. I have to think about the child in my belly."
King Chen's face was pale and his expression was obviously displeased: "Are you worried that I will be harmful to your child? Do you think that in my sister's heart, my dear prince has actually gone so far as to attack an unborn child?"
"It's essential to be on guard against others." Chu Yunfei sneered, "Do you agree or disagree? If you don't agree, go back and just pretend you haven't been here today."
King Chen hesitated for a long time: "I'll go back first, and then come back -"
"No, Prince Chen must stay now. I will go to Prince Chen's Mansion myself." Chu Yunfei said calmly, "Otherwise, there is no need to talk."
King Chen gritted his teeth: "..."
Chu Yunfei's eyes were narrow and a cold light flashed across his eyes. He turned to look at Rong Cang: "Your Majesty, I will be back within an hour."
Rong Cang frowned, obviously not wanting her to go.
Chu Yunfei leaned close to him and said in an indifferent voice: "Prince Chen and his wife have caused a lot of trouble for us recently. I kept it in my mind. Since they took the initiative to come to the door today, no matter what happens later, it will be their own fault."
Rong Cang was silent for a moment and nodded slowly: "Protect yourself."
"Don't worry." Chu Yunfei looked calm, "Even if I am careless, I will not risk the child in my belly."
With that said, she simply didn't even enter the palace, got on the carriage, and took Shengxia and Baochan to Prince Chen's palace.
King Chen stood in front of the court and was about to turn around and follow him when Rong Cang raised his hand expressionlessly to indicate that several guards from the palace immediately stepped forward and blocked his way without saying a word.
"Ninth brother." King Chen looked at him dissatisfied, "What are you doing?"
Rong Cang's voice was cold: "Fei'er asked you to stay, so you stay. Their sisters-in-law have their own words. If you go back, it will only be counterproductive."
King Chen's eyes darkened, and he suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart.
