Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Lord Jiang, my anger has indeed been appeased, but I don’t know about Lord Qu, ” Yu Yunxi said meaningfully.

Jiang Yuanzhong’s expression was extremely ugly when he heard this. He gritted his teeth and said stiffly, “Then what do you think will appease Lord Qu, Eldest Princess?”

“Lord Qu is not a petty person. He’s been feeling troubled by the locust plague in Kongzhou recently. Why don’t you help him?”

“How can I help?” Jiang Yuanzhong asked. He already had a rough guess in his heart, and he could not help but feel uneasy.

“It seems like the money for disaster relief is not enough. Lord Qu has already set an example by donating half of his family’s assets. Why don’t you do the same, Lord Jiang?” Yu Yunxi asked with a smile.

‘So she was waiting for me here…’

Jiang Yuanzhong gnashed his teeth. He pretended to look troubled as he said, “Eldest Princess, I wish to do my best to help, but…”

“Lord Jiang, do you mean to say that your family doesn’t have so much money? However, why is it that I always hear about your daughter and your son frequenting restaurants, clothing stores, and jewelry stores in the capital? Moreover, every time they visit a store, I hear that a carriage is needed to carry all the things they bought. For this reason, I assumed Lord Jiang’s salary as an official was quite good,” Yu Yunxi said meaningfully as she raised an eyebrow.

A chill ran down Jiang Yuanzhong’s spine when he heard these words. He gnashed his teeth and ignored his bleeding heart as he said, “Eldest, Eldest Princess, although I don’t have much money, I’m willing to cut back on living expenses for the sake of the commoners. Don’t worry. I’ll definitely send the money over before General Qu sets off for Kongzhou.”

“Then I’ll have to trouble Lord Jiang,” Yu Yunxi said with a smile. Then, as though she just thought of something, she said, “That’s right. Lord Jiang, are you going to participate in the autumn hunt as well? Why don’t we go together?”

Jiang Yuanzhong hated Yu Yunxi to death at this moment. He said through gritted teeth, “My daughter and I aren’t feeling well so we won’t be participating in the autumn hunt. I don’t want to spoil the atmosphere. I’ll send someone to inform the Emperor about my absence.”

“What a pity. Then Lord Jiang, please rest well,” Yu Yunxi said with a smile.

“Thank you, Eldest Princess.”

Jiang Yuanzhong could only suppress the pain in his heart and thank Yu Yunxi.

As soon as Yu Yunxi entered the carriage, she saw Feng Yili’s smiling eyes. He said, filled with admiration, “The Eldest Princess’ revenge is really painful.” 𝒻𝑟𝑒𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝑛ℴ𝘷𝑒𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝑚

‘Not only was Jiang Pei punished, but that old fox, Jiang Yuanzhong, also had to pay a huge price…’

Yu Yunxi crossed her arms and slowly said, “I’ve investigated Jiang Yuanzhong. He’s careful and respectful. He’s been taking advantage of both sides for many years and is afraid of making mistakes. In order to protect the Jiang family, I knew he would definitely give up on Jiang Pei. As for the money… It’s naturally not as important as his career…”

“It’s a good call, forcing him to donate money. That person in the palace is dissatisfied with you, but he won’t be able to punish you easily when he thinks of the money for disaster relief,” Feng Yili said with a nod.

In the past, Yu Yunxi mainly stayed in the residence so Feng Yili did not often see her strategize and make a move. Based on what he saw today, he further understood why Xinan was doing so well.

Faced with Feng Yili’s burning gaze, Yu Yunxi felt uncomfortable again. She quickly averted her gaze and said stiffly, pretending to be calm, “Let’s go. The autumn hunt is about to begin. We have to join the fun as soon as possible.” Feng Yili lowered his head and laughed softly.

Jiang Ying’s carriage-driving skills were excellent. It did not take long before they arrived at the imperial hunting ground.

A fence surrounded a clearing in the middle of a dense forest. There were many tents pitched in the clearing.

Many people turned around when they heard the commotion, and they saw Yu Yunxi and Feng Yili coming down from the carriage. Their expressions changed immediately. Some people even began to make plans in their hearts.

Yu Yunxi felt her head ache when she saw these people’s gazes. If she had known this would happen, she would have parted ways with Feng Yili at the foot of the mountain.

At this time, Chu Yuefu hurried over and asked tentatively, “Sister Yunxi, why are you so late?”

Chu Yuefu arrived a while ago. He kept thinking about Yu Yunxi’s matter and felt extremely irritated.

‘The King of Youshan is a troublesome person to deal with… If he manages to pull Yu Yunxi to his side, my and Imperial Mother’s plan will fail…’

Before Yu Yunxi could reply, Feng Yili said with a sneer, “Crown Prince, I don’t think the Eldest Princess needs to report her matters to you.”

“King of Youshan! ”

Chu Yuefu’s eyes shone with anger. He was the Crown Prince of Xichu, and in his opinion, he did not need to yield to the King of Youshan.

At this moment…

“Crown Prince, why are you so angry?”

A young man in riding attire slowly walked over while he fanned himself. A curious expression could be seen on his face at this moment.

When Chu Yuefu saw the other party, he said in an unfriendly tone, “Fourth Brother, Consort Hong’s body is weak. You used to accompany her in the palace during the previous autumn hunts. Why did you leave the palace this time?” freeweb novel. com

The young man was Chu Yuezheng, the Fourth Prince. He was also the son of the Emperor with Consort Hong.

Consort Hong came from the Hong family, which was one of the four major families in Xichu. It was an extremely famous and noble family in Xichu. Not only that, but she and the Emperor were childhood sweethearts. Her status in the Emperor’s heart was not something the Empress could compare to, let alone the other consorts and concubines in the palace. Moreover, she was born with a heart disease so she was weak and sickly. As a result, the Emperor doted on her even more.

Thanks to his mother, Chu Yuezheng was also treated very well by the Emperor.

All these years, Chu Yuefu had always treated Chu Yuezheng as his greatest opponent. Therefore, their daggers would be drawn whenever they met.

When Chu Yuezheng heard Chu Yuefu’s words, he smiled and slowly said, “There’s no need to worry about Mother’s health. Recently, her health has been improving so Father agreed to let her participate in the autumn hunt. With this, I’m naturally free to participate in the autumn hunt as well.”

‘Consort Hong is here as well?’

Chu Yuefu frowned.

Meanwhile, Chu Yuezheng turned to Yu Yunxi and said sincerely, “Eldest Princess, in fact, there’s another reason why my mother wanted to participate in the autumn hunt this time. The truth is our mothers used to be good friends.

Yu Yunxi:

Yu Yunxi sneered inwardly as she thought to herself, ‘Ha, over the past few days, many of Mother’s good friends had shown up one after another…’

As though he could not see the cold expression on Yu Yunxi’s face, Chu

Yuezheng continued to say gently, “Eldest Princess, my mother was unable to

attend the palace banquet previously, but she has been thinking about you. She

thought that today would be a good opportunity…”

However, before Chu Yuezheng could finish speaking, Yu Yunxi heard someone in the surroundings say, “The Emperor, the Empress, and the others are

here…’

Yu Yunxi’s gaze darkened. She immediately turned around to find a seat.

When Feng Yili saw this, he raised his eyebrow slightly. He followed her with a straight face and took a seat next to her..
