Yu’er asked weakly, “Does this include Sister Meng Nia?”

“That’s right,” Yu Yunxi replied with a nod.

Because of her grandfather, Meng Xia had been preventing Yu Yunxi from investigating her past. Hence, she had to hide this matter from Meng Xia and investigate in secret.

“I understand, I understand,” Yu’er quickly replied.

After Yu’er left, Yu Yunxi’s eyes surged with emotions. She had a strong feeling that if she investigated the Prince and Princess Regent of Tianxia, she might regain her memories.

She looked out of the window as she murmured, “Who are you, King of

Youshan?”

Early in the morning.

Meng Xia reported to Yu Yunxi, “Eldest Princess, I’ve already sent someone to furnish the shop last night. You can open the Revival Hall at any time.”

‘That’s fast..

Yu Yunxi was slightly stunned. She did not expect Meng Xia and the others to get so many things done in just a night. After a beat, she replied, “Thank you for your hard work. However, now’s not the time to open the medical hall.”

“Yes, Eldest Princess.’

“Prepare a carriage for me. I want to enter the palace,” Yu Yunxi said.

Meng Xia quickly left to make preparations.

Not long after, an uninvited guest appeared in front of Yu Yunxi.

Yu Xiaoxiao quickly walked over to Yu Yunxi’s side and even took the initiative to hold the latter’s hand. She asked, “Sister, have you been sleeping well?”

Those who did not know better would think that they were close sisters if they saw this scene.

Yu Yunxi disliked Yu Xiaoxiao’s close proximity to her. She pulled her hand away and said coldly, “Yes. I slept very well.”

‘She slept well? Didn’t Mother and Father say that this courtyard is haunted? Why isn’t she affected?’

Yu Xiaoxiao’s smile froze, and her heart sank. She had come here today expecting to see a haggard Yu Yunxi. Unexpectedly, things did not go as planned.

Yu Xiaoxiao suppressed her frustration and said with a smile, “It’s great that you’ve been sleeping well. I was worried that you wouldn’t be used to sleeping here. By the way, are you going out?”

Yu Xiaoxiao’s attitude toward Yu Yunxi today was devoid of hostility.

After all, the people from the second branch of the Yu family had discussed the matter the whole night. They still wanted to drive Yu Yunxi out of the King of Zhenbei’s Residence, but Yu Yunxi possessed many precious things that were bestowed by the Emperor Emeritus. Not only that, but Yu Yunxi’s status was rather high at this moment. It was not appropriate for them to openly become enemies with Yu Yunxi. Hence, they planned to pretend to be good to Yu Yunxi for the time being so that Yu Yunxi would let down her guard. At the same time, they would swallow her possessions bit by bit.

Most importantly, if they could manipulate Yu Yunxi, the Empress and the Crown Prince would also think highly of them.

Yu Xiaoxiao’s smile was very bright. She was unaware that Yu Yunxi had seen through her thoughts.

Yu Yunxi did not bother to expose Yu Xiaoxiao. She wanted to see what else they had up their sleeves. She replied flatly, “I’m entering the palace.”

“You’re entering the palace? Sister, are you going to see the Emperor Emeritus?” Yu Xiao Xiao probed.

‘The Emperor Emeritus is really good to Yu Yunxi. If I follow her into the palace, perhaps I’ll gain some benefits…’

Yu Xiao Xiao’s heart skipped a beat when she thought of this.

Alas, to Yu Xiaoxiao’s disappointment, Yu Yunxi said, “No, I’m not going to see my grandfather. I’m going to see my Imperial Uncle.”

Yu Xiaoxiao’s smile stiffened. At the same time, she thought to herself, ‘How stupid. The Emperor hates her so much, but she’s going to the palace to see him. She’s just asking to be humiliated! I better not go with her lest I get implicated…’

Yu Xiaoxiao smiled again and moved closer to Yu Yunxi before she said, “In fact, I’m also going to the palace today to see the Empress. As you know, the Empress wants me and the Crown Prince to get married as soon as possible. For this reason, she often summons me into the palace.”

Clearly, Yu Xiaoxiao was bragging.

The corners of Yu Yunxi’s lips twitched when she heard these words. Then, she said meaningfully, “It’s useless for Her Majesty to be anxious. After all, His

Majesty only arranged the marriage. He did not set a date for the marriage.”

These words successfully angered Yu Xiaoxiao. This was in fact her sore spot.

It had been three years since Yu Xiaoxiao was bestowed this marriage, but until now, the Emperor did not say anything about the marriage. Every time the Empress asked about this matter, the Emperor would reject the Empress, saying that it was not appropriate because the Crown Prince had yet to marry a Crown Princess.

Yu Xiaoxiao knew this was just an excuse. After all, although the Crown Prince had yet to marry a Crown Princess, the Crown Prince had already taken in many concubines. As such, it would not make a difference if she were to marry the Crown Prince now as his side consort.

Yu Yunxi dusted her sleeve, which Yu Xiaoxiao had touched earlier, and walked out.

However, Yu Xiaoxiao seemed determined to cling to Yu Yunxi today. She chased after Yu Yunxi and said, “Sister, since we’re going to the same place, let’s go together…”

When they arrived at the entrance of the Yu Residence, Yu Xiaoxiao did not even ask for Yu Yunxi’s permission and directly got into the carriage. She studied the carriage’s interior and said enviously, “Sister, your carriage is really spacious…”

Although Yu Xiaoxiao was the Young Miss of the King of Zhenbei’s Residence, she did not possess a carriage as luxurious as that of Yu Yunxi.

‘Yu Yunxi’s life is really good..

Yu Yunxi raised an eyebrow and said nonchalantly, “Is it spacious? I think it’s too small. After all, I have a few carriages that are bigger than this one.”

Yu Xiaoxiao was so angered by these words that she almost lost control of her expression. Seeing that Yu Yunxi was boiling tea, she reached out to pick up a teacup.

However, at this moment, Yu Yunxi’s gaze turned terrifyingly cold as she said with a hint of reproach, “Put the teacup down.”

“Sister, can’t I even have a cup of tea?” Yu Xiaoxiao said resentfully.

“You can have a cup of tea, but you can’t use this teacup,” Yu Yunxi said lightly. Then, she gave Yu Xiaoxiao another teacup.

Yu Yunxi did not explain herself. She looked at the teacup as she thought to herself, ‘That’s not an ordinary teacup. He has used this teacup before… Yu Yunxi seemed to be able to feel the warmth from that person when she held the teacup in her hand.

‘I must be crazy. I actually miss him. How’s this possible when we only met a few times?’

The journey continued, and the two women no longer spoke.

When the carriage pulled to a stop, Yu Xiaoxiao acted like nothing had happened. She approached Yu Yunxi and said, “Sister, I’m going to pay my respect to the Empress. Why don’t you come with me?”

Yu Xiaoxiao could not hide the fact that she was scheming when she said these words. She knew very well that the Empress disliked Yu Yunxi. If Yu Yunxi went to see the Empress, the Empress would definitely make things difficult for Yu Yunxi. She would naturally be happy to see Yu Yunxi being bullied..
