At this moment, the Empress Dowager said, “Enough. As the dignified Eldest Princess, you actually made a bet with the daughters of the ministers. Isn’t this an abuse of power? You’re just making a fool out of yourself.”

The Empress Dowager did not hold back in criticizing Yu Yunxi at all. Although she was happy that Yu Yunxi made Consort Mu suffer earlier, it did not mean that she would let Yu Yunxi off. She naturally would not let go of this chance to suppress Yu Yunxi.

Seeing that the Empress Dowager was speaking for them, Yang Yeqi felt emboldened. She said loudly, “Eldest Princess, in fact, we had good intentions earlier. We just didn’t want to ruin your relationship with the Sixth Princess so we said those words.”

“That’s right. We just want everyone to know the truth. Now that the truth is known by everyone, you can’t hold us responsible, right?” Yu Yunxi was speechless.

‘These people really know how to talk nonsense and lie…’

The more Yang Yeqi spoke, the more grief and indignation she felt as she said, “Eldest Princess, our fathers and brothers are all honest officials. Our families don’t have much money so how can we give you 10,000 taels of silver? Are you really going to back us into the corner?

Yang Yeqi wiped her tears and kneeled in front of the Empress Dowager before she continued to say, “Empress Dowager, our Yang family is loyal to the imperial court and has no other intentions. However, if Father finds out that I’m forced to such a state by the Eldest Princess at the Temple of Eternal Peace today, he’ll definitely be very sad.”

The other noble ladies quickly followed Yang Yeqi’s example and began to plead with the Empress Dowager and Empress Qin.

“Empress, you have to help us. We were just joking with the Eldest Princess.

She’s angry with the Sixth Princess so she’s venting her anger on us now. If we have to pay 10,000 taels of silver, it’s no different from forcing our fathers and brothers to death!”

“That’s right, Empress Dowager, Empress. Our fathers and brothers worked hard for the imperial court for many years. Today, we’re forced to such a state by the Eldest Princess. This is too disappointing.”

These noble ladies no longer cared if they completely offended Yu Yunxi. They had only one thought at this moment: they could not pay Yu Yunxi the money. Otherwise, even if they were legitimate daughters, they would be severely punished by their respective families.

In their opinion, no matter how powerful Yu Yunxi was, she could not be more powerful than the Empress Dowager and the Empress. As long as the duo stood on their side, they had a chance.

Meanwhile, when everyone heard this, their minds began to race again.

‘That’s right. What happened earlier was clearly a fight between the Eldest Princess and the Sixth Princess.’

‘Miss Yang and the others are innocent, and they were implicated…’

‘Lord Yang and the others are all important and honest officials, but the Eldest Princess is so dismissive of them. She’s too arrogant. Isn’t she afraid of offending everyone?’

Many people put themselves in the shoes of the Yang family, and they could not help but speak up one after another.

“Eldest Princess, it’s best to be lenient whenever possible. You’ve already proven your innocence earlier. What else do you want?”

“That’s right, Eldest Princess. I heard that the Emperor Emeritus gave you a lot of things. Tens of thousand taels of silver are nothing to you, right?

“10,000 taels of silver is just a drop in the bucket for the Eldest Princess, but to the Yang family, it’s like their life…”

Yu Yunxi wanted to laugh when she heard these words.

‘Honest officials? They have the cheek to say that? The fabric of the dress Yang Yeqi is wearing seems to be more precious than the fabric of my dress, right?

Moreover, so what if they really can’t afford it? They asked for it!’

Yu Yunxi’s expression turned cold. However, just as she was about to retort, Feng Yili and the little bun stepped forward.

Feng Yili said with a sneer, “Everyone, you really put on a good show for me to watch. ”

Yu Yunxi frowned slightly. After all, she could solve this matter herself. Nonetheless, her heart was still suffused with warmth when she saw him standing in front of her.

‘Forget it. He’s my husband. It’s good that he wants to protect me…’

The thorns on Yu Yunxi’s body seemed to disappear as she looked at Feng Yili’s back silently.

Meanwhile, the others were shocked. Based on the King of Youshan’s words, he was clearly standing on Yu Yunxi’s side. It was also at this time that they recalled that the King of Youshan had a good relationship with Yu Yunxi.

‘Is there something between the two of them?’

The Empress Dowager asked coldly, “King of Youshan, what do you mean by

‘Why is this barbarian speaking up for Yu Yunxi?’

Feng Yili ignored the Empress Dowager. Instead, he turned to the little bun and said seriously, “Junjin, you can’t become such a person in the future.

Understand?”

“Such a person?” the little bun asked as he tilted his head. A frown could be seen on his chubby face, and his big dark eyes shone with confusion. His cute appearance melted many people’s hearts.

‘He’s the King of Youshan’s son? The King of Youshan is fierce, but his son is actually so cute and obedient.’

Feng Yili raised his hand and gently pinched the little bun’s cheek as he said,

“Don’t become a person who’s shameless and can’t afford to lose.”

‘This little fellow’s soft and chubby cheeks are just like those of his mother. It makes me feel like pinching them…’

The little bun swept his gaze across the crowd and said disdainfully, “I understand, Father. I won’t become like that! How shameless!”

Upon hearing this, someone flew into a rage out of humiliation and said, “King of Youshan, what’s the meaning of this?”

The little bun yawned and replied, “We don’t mean anything. We’re just talking about…”

“About what?”

“About how shameless you are,” the little bun said disdainfully.

Everyone:

At this time, one of the noble ladies could no longer endure it. She began to complain to the Empress Dowager, “Empress, the little prince of the King of Youshan’s Residence actually insulted someone. He’s too much.”

The little bun scoffed and continued to say derisively, “It’s all the villains who complain first. What nonsense.”

“You! You have no manners!”

“And you have a stinky mouth!” the little bun said as he made a face.

“You, you…”

The little bun asked his father to put him down before he put his hands on his hips and scolded, “You’re a noble lady from the capital? Your words are so unpleasant. You’re clearly a long-tailed scorpion full of evil tricks!”

The little bun continued, “Didn’t you see it earlier? It was clearly these people who wanted to frame my… the Eldest Princess earlier. Moreover, the Eldest Princes didn’t force them to accept the bet. It’s just that some people coveted the Eldest Princess’ military power. After losing, they wanted to renege. All of you are despicable!”

“T-that was the Sixth Princess’ suggestion. It has nothing to do with Mis Yang and the others!” the woman retorted, pretending to be calm.

The little bun scoffed and continued to scold, “They’re the Sixth Princess’ lackeys, and they just wanted to help her frame the Eldest Princess so they could curry favor with her! Now that they’ve failed, they want to shirk the responsibility. Do they have any shame?”

Meanwhile, Meng Xia and the others were thoroughly shocked.

‘The little master’s mouth is really… fierce!’
