The prime minister and the crown prince were basked in worry, especially after Wenren Yunfei returned to the crown prince estates and found that everyoneâs reaction to her had changed to that of ridicule and pity, causing her to erupt.
When the empress had heard of the situation, she instantly had people take back all expenses given to the crown princess. She had even announced a decree that the crown prince estateâs female owner could only be Wenren XunMi. Although she was the empress, her family standing wasnât strong enough. If she wanted her son to sit on that throne, she needed a prominent and strong backing. It wasnât that she didnât like that prime ministerâs second miss. But Wenren XunMi, no matter her status as the prime ministerâs legitimate daughter or the duke;s granddaughter, would always be superior, even more so after the Emperor had given the title of Princess RuoJia.
The character Jia represented kindheartedness, beauty. Along with Ruo (gentle), not even a princess from the royal family has been gifted with such a title. This kind of woman was the best match for her sonâs crown princess.
Wenren Yunfei obviously didnât know what the empress was thinking. She only knew that she had been metaphorically slapped in the face.
Her resentment and anger couldnât be restrained. Moreover, the crown prince was still in the midst of feeling regret so didnât promptly comfort her. The results of this was the crown prince estates falling into chaos.
XunMi didnât know what was happening outside. All she knew was that when she woke up, she heard numerous different versions of the âUgly Duckling Turns into a White Swanâ. Of course, the most sensational news was her own mother, for publicly divorcing her husband. Not only did the woman divorce her husband, but she had divorced the renowned prime minister. This was the news of the year!
In capital cityâs largest restaurant, XunMi wore a muslin veil with Xiao Xiang behind her and her brother next to her. She leisurely listened in on storyteller downstairs recounting yesterdayâs events. But when she heard the news regarding herself, the expression on her face cracked. What did they mean by she was an embarrassment, not daring to be seen in public? What did they mean that it was her that was shameless, that she had entrapped the kindhearted fairy from the ninth level of Heaven?
How unreasonable of them to say that she was a bitch destroying otherâs happiness? XunMi didnât even have the time to be angry before Wenren Lu rushed down to argue with those speaking.
XunMi helplessly placed a hand to her forehead. It seems like there was no chance for her to quietly admire the ancient landscape. However, at least she was still able to partake in a strong interest of hers, slapping people across the face. XunMi knew that this tactic could only be committed by someone resentful of her. She was curious to see exactly much animosity for her the enemy possessed.
âYou are lying, my sister isnât ugly. Wenren Yunfei is the one that isnât on the same level as my sister!â As she went downstairs, XunMi heard her brotherâs voice call out. Feeling warm, she thought since there were so many people protecting me in the previous life, then Iâll protect little brother now.
Xiao Xiang stood furious behind her Young Miss. She really wanted to tear off the mouths of those spreading such talks.
In a room on the third floor sat three men in splendidly adorned clothes, their manner suggesting their high status. At the moment, they were coldly watching the scene below. If not because they didnât want the fairylike person in their hearts to learn of their cruel side, they would have already sent people to kill Wenren XunMi. She was looking for death by daring to scheme against that wonderful fairy.
âHehe, who in capital city doesnât know the Prime Ministerâs Second Miss was just an undeservingly famous dumb young miss?â
âHow could she compare to Miss Yunfei? Miss Yunfei has good looks and a kind heart!â
âI donât know what is wrong with the Emperorâs eyesight for him to prefer such a useless person?â
The storyteller was Nangong Muchenâs person, specifically here to spread rumors and oppress Wenren XunMiâs news. Early in the morning, Wenren Yunfei had ran to these people lamenting on how XunMi had schemed to humiliate her, even wanting to scar her face out of jealousy. Those men, who only used 0.01% of their IQ to think, immediately burned with anger, deciding on the current plan in front of them.
XunMi stood at the bottom of the staircase, lightly laughing, âThis sir, are you questioning the edict of the Emperor? I donât know what identity you possess to so adamantly doubt His Majesty.â For the female lead, these men are really giving it their all, without a care for their lives. However, no one thought there was anything wrong with this.
A crowd had formed for the argument between the storyteller and the young lad, hoping to watch some excitement. But before they could watch the action climax, a woman in white appeared. She gracefully stood, her hand resting on the railing causing her sleeve to slide and expose a little section of fair skin. That light laughter sounded as if mischievously tapping onto their audienceâs hearts.
Where did this woman come from? How come theyâve never seen her in capital city before?
Even though they couldnât see her full appearance, they could see her uniqueness based on her leisurely elegant air.
âWhat are you looking at? Is our Young Miss someone you can look at?â Xiao Xiang angrily put her hands on her hips. How could these commoners be so blunt. Seeing his sister coming down, Wenren Lu pushed the storyteller aside and quickly ran to his sisterâs side. Worriedly, he pulled on his sisterâs sleeve. Those peopleâs words were too offensive, would his sister be upset?
âHey, which familyâs young miss is this?â
âI donât know. I donât think Iâve ever seen her before after so many years in the capital.â
âLooking at her air, she must be a upper status noblewoman. Sheâs probably a young miss from the royal clan out to play.â
While downstairs was noisy with excitement, the private room upstair was immersed with silence. They werenât as dumb as those people downstairs. They were the capitalâs richest merchant, the most talented scholar, and the head of the secret guards. Intelligence was needed to able to climb to their position.
Just now, they had also heard Wenren Luâs words. Seeing Wenren Luâs reaction, they could all ascertain that this woman was Wenren XunMi. Except this Wenren XunMi wasnât exactly how they imagined. No matter how much they loved Yunfei, they had to admit that Wenren XunMiâs natural air was superior to Yunfeiâs. Could this kind of person really be that kind of malicious person?
A piece of doubt quietly formed in their heart but they still didnât believe in Wenren XunMi. After all, oneâs outer appearance could be a lie as well. Since she was wearing a muslin veil, that means she truly didnât dare show herself.
âBrother BaiLing, weâll have to trouble you to unmask Miss Wenrenâs muslin veil soon. I want to see exactly what she looks like. It must be that her looks arenât better than FeiFeiâs so she wants to cover her face.â Nangong Muchen swayed his folding fan while speaking. Yet his gaze never moved from the woman downstairs.
