Yu Wanrong’s expression was extremely ugly when she heard these words.
The young masters and young ladies of the aristocratic families also looked at Yu Wanrong with extremely strange gazes. After all, everyone had heard about how the Prince Regent doted on the Second Miss of the Yu family. After thinking about it, they thought that if the Prince Regent truly doted on her, Yu Zhongcheng would not have been imprisoned.
At this moment, the carriage of the Eldest Miss of the Chen family arrived.
Chen Simeng pulled the curtain aside. She looked at Yu Wanrong with a strange expression and said, “Cousin, what are you doing? Hurry up and get into the carriage.”
It was easy to see from Chen Simeng’s gaze that she blamed Yu Wanrong for embarrassing her.
At this time, the coachman rushed over and explained the matter to Chen Simeng. She still look dissatisfied, but she ordered her maidservant to give Yu
Wanrong another entry token.”
Meanwhile, from the beginning to the end, the people of the Prince Regent’s Residence clearly had no intention of helping Yu Wanrong at all.
Yu Yunxi watched the drama unfold and could not help but frown.
‘Feng Yili is so cold toward Yu Wanrong.. Then, how did the rumor about him favoring Yu Wanrong spread?’
After a while, Yu Yunxi quickly dismissed this thought from her mind.
After the carriage entered the palace, and Xu Zhiyan alighted from the carriage, a eunuch came over. “Lord Xu, the Empress Dowager wants to meet you.”
‘The Empress Dowager?’
Xu Zhiyan’s eyes flashed for a moment. He could not figure out what the Empress Dowager wanted from him. However, he was not in the position to refuse. He turned to look at Yu Yunxi worriedly.
Seeing the expression on Xu Zhiyan’s face, Yu Yunxi nodded and said, “Go ahead. I’m fine on my own.”
After Xu Zhiyan left, Yu Yunxi followed the other young ladies to enter the imperial garden.
“Have you heard that the Fourth Princess prepared a surprise for General Yu?”
‘General Yu?’
Yu Yunxi frowned slightly upon hearing these words. After a moment, she realized that they were talking about her third brother, Yu Yongnian. After winning this battle, he was promoted to general.
As for the Fourth Princess, her birth mother was Consort Xiao. She was also the Emperor’s first princess so she was deeply loved by the Emperor. She learned riding and archery from the Emperor since she was young. She was also the only princess in the imperial family who was skilled in both literature and martial arts.
‘She’s still unmarried… Does this mean she’s interested in Yongnian?’
After finding out that these ladies were making their way to the imperial garden to see the Fourth Princess’ surprise, Yu Yunxi completely lost interest. Just as she was about to turn around and leave, Yu Wanrong suddenly appeared behind her.
“Sister, where are you going?”
Yu Wanrong’s voice quickly attracted everyone’s attention.
They sized Yu Yunxi up and whispered about her identity and her clothes.
“Sister, the banquet hasn’t started yet, but the Fourth Princess has something planned in the imperial garden. All the young masters and young ladies from the aristocratic will be there. Why are you leaving?” Yu Wanrong asked, pretending to be curious.
“Yu Wanrong, it seems like you really want me to go. What are you plotting?” Yu Yunxi asked coldly, looking at Yu Wanrong with a knowing gaze.
Yu Wanrong stiffened, and her face under the veil looked a little unnatural.
Yu Yunxi’s suspicion was confirmed when she saw Yu Wanrong’s reaction. She was only testing Yu Wanrong earlier, but it seemed like there was really a trap waiting for her in the imperial garden. She rolled her eyes and said mockingly, “Don’t worry, Sister. Since you’ve expended so much effort just to make sure I go over, I won’t disappoint you.”
With that, Yu Yunxi turned around and continued to make her way to the imperial garden.
Yu Wanrong was furious that Yu Yunxi had exposed her. However, a strange smile suddenly appeared on her face as she looked at Yu Yunxi’s back. She muttered under her breath, “Yu Yunxi, since you’re actively seeking death, you can’t blame anyone.”
Meanwhile, Qian Jiao who was following behind Yu Yunxi asked worriedly, “County Princess, what’s Yu Wanrong plotting?”
“We must be careful later,” Yu Yunxi said seriously.
“Yes.”
At this moment, a group of maidservants appeared.
“Everyone, the Fourth Princess invites you to the garden.”
The young masters and the young ladies walked in excitedly.
Suddenly, a palace maid walked to Yu Yunxi and said, “County Princess, please wait. The Fourth Princess invites you to another place.”
“Another place?” Yu Yunxi raised an eyebrow as she looked at the maidservant.
The palace maid smiled and said respectfully, “That’s right.”
The palace maid’s expression did not reveal anything suspicious at all from the beginning until the end.
After a moment, Yu Yunxi said nonchalantly, “Lead the way.”
The palace maid turned around and quickly led the way.
Yu Yunxi observed the palace maid and found that the other party’s footing was very stable.
‘As expected of the Fourth Princess’ palace maid. She’s a martial artist…
When they entered a huge and seemingly empty building, the palace maid stopped in her tracks and said, “County Princess, please wait for a moment. The Fourth Princess will be here soon.”
As soon as they arrived, Yu Yunxi discovered that the surroundings were sealed off and the top of the building was open. Then, she heard the door opening as the palace maid prepared to leave. She saw another person standing outside, preparing to lock the door.
Yu Yunxi’s expression changed drastically. She shouted anxiously, “Qian Jiao, be careful! ”
With that, she quickly pushed Qian Jiao out the door and grabbed the palace maid.
Following that, the door locked with a loud click, trapping Yu Yunxi and the palace maid inside.
The palace maid was very calm earlier, but when she saw that the door was locked, her face paled, and she began to panic. She pounded on the door as she cried out, “Fourth Princess, I’m still inside! Let me out!”
‘Fourth Princess? So the Fourth Princess is behind this? She’s really bold!’ Yu Yunxi thought to herself as she studied her surroundings.
At this moment, Yu Yunxi heard many voices.
“Isn’t that the County Princess of Xinan?”
“That’s right! Wasn’t she with us earlier! Why is she down there!”
“Why did the Fourth Princess invite us here? What surprise did she prepare for General Yu?”
Yu Yunxi looked up and saw a group of people.
‘A coliseum? To think that there’s such a terrible place in the palace…’
Yu Yunxi’s speculation was confirmed when she heard the sounds of howling and roaring, which scared the people watching from the top.
“Why are there the sounds of animals? Did I hear wrongly? Was that a wolf?”
“It’s not just a wolf. I heard a tiger roaring as well! This is the imperial garden.
How can there be such a thing here?”
“Wait! I remember Xichu sent a few beasts as a tribute to the Emperor a few days ago. The Fourth Princess liked them a lot so the Emperor gave them to her to tame! Are those animals in the imperial garden?”
The people above began to panic when they heard these words.
At this moment, Feng Weiping, the Fourth Princess, walked out. A young man dressed in armor stood next to her. It was none other than Yu Yongnian. She sneered as she looked down at Yu Yunxi before she said, “General Yu, the problems in your Yu family were all caused by Yu Yunxi. Today, I’ll teach her a lesson on your behalf..”
