Yu Yunxin did not answer, but just silently observed everything around her. Then, they came to the side yard. As soon as they entered the hall, they could feel the smell of decay. The shelves were empty and covered with thick dust, and the flower pots on the table had long since withered and were lifeless. Yu Yunxin and the other two looked at each other, and a strange feeling surged in their hearts.

Then, they continued to check other rooms in the side courtyard. However, every door was closed. Qiu Shuang and Chun Yu tried to push the door, but found that they were all locked. Just when everyone was confused, Prince Yu suddenly appeared from behind.

Prince Yu was disheveled and looked lazy. When he saw Yu Yunxin, he immediately came up to her and said with a smile, "Oh, my princess, why are you here? I'm so hungry and want to eat something delicious! Go and make it for me!" As he spoke, he touched his stomach with his hand, as if he was really hungry.

Yu Yunxin was somewhat helpless in the face of Prince Yu's request. She looked around at the dilapidated environment and thought that even if the prince was stupid, the servants in the mansion couldn't just sit there and do nothing, right? She agreed to Prince Yu's request and prepared food for him as soon as possible. At the same time, she also decided to find some time to get to know the situation in the palace and see if she could find some solutions to the problem.

"Your Highness! Don't the servants in your house do it for you?" Yu Yunxin asked.

"They only give me lunch and never make breakfast for me. I'm so hungry now. By the way, when you're hungry, just drink the well water in the front yard." Nangong Lin said stupidly, and suddenly remembered something and said, "Princess, do you also drink well water for breakfast? I'll get you a bucket so we can drink together." After saying that, Nangong Lin walked towards a big well outside the yard and began to draw water. When he was taking the ladle to drink it.

"Don't drink the well water!" Yu Yunxin walked over and yelled, knocking the water out of Nangong Lin's hand and looking at Qiu Shuang and saying, "Qiu Shuang, wake up all the servants in this mansion. The master is awake, so why wouldn't the servants get up?"

I heard an impatient voice coming from one of the rooms: "Who is making so much noise outside? Don't you know I'm sleeping?"

Qiu Shuang heard it and immediately came to the room where the noise came from. She kicked the door open, walked in, and immediately came out with her face covered, saying, "Young lady, how can the servants in this mansion be so shameless? A naked man is hugging three naked maids."

Yu Yunxin heard this and said, "Qiu Shuang told them to put on the clothes for this princess and get out."

After hearing the noise from outside, the other rooms began to make rustling sounds. Not long after, those people came out of their rooms in neatly dressed clothes. They yawned, stretched, and walked out of the door reluctantly. The last one to come out was a man dressed like a guard and three women dressed like concubines. The guard even put his arm around the waist of one of the beautiful women and walked out together.

When they saw Yu Yunxin standing in the middle of the courtyard, everyone was stunned, as if they had seen a fairy descending to earth. Especially the guard, he stared at Yu Yunxin with an extremely obscene look, muttering to himself: "You are the Princess Yu who just entered the palace." After saying that, the guard swallowed hard and walked towards Yu Yunxin.

"Do you know what crime it is for a guard to have an affair with a maid in the palace, or for a guard in the palace to have an affair with an outsider?" Yu Yunxin said coldly.

The guard approached Yu Yunxin and stared at her fairy-like face and said, "I didn't expect that this foolish prince could marry such a beautiful princess. What a pity. From now on, my princess, you will..."

Only two slaps were heard, and Qiu Shuang slapped the wretched guard directly on the face. "Shut up, you are so bold, do you know who our princess is when she didn't enter the palace?"

Yu Yunxin raised her eyebrows and said coquettishly, "Don't you want to stay in Prince Yu's Mansion? Why don't you get out of here and gather in the hall!"

After Yu Yunxin finished speaking, she led everyone to the hall in a menacing manner. It was unknown why those daring servants were so obedient and followed her obediently. When they arrived at the palace hall, they saw that except for the floor, there was a layer of dust on the shelves. Yu Yunxin glanced at the main seat and saw that it was relatively clean, so she sat down.

"Princess, I searched around the palace and found a person trapped in the woodshed with wounds all over his face and body." After Qiu Shuang finished speaking, a man in his thirties wearing coarse black clothes and with a swollen face from being beaten walked in. His age could not be identified.

As soon as the man saw Yu Yunxin and Prince Yu following behind him, he immediately knelt down and said, "Princess, I am Li Ye, the eunuch who serves Prince Yu personally. It was these ignorant servants who tied me up." His voice was a little effeminate.

"Why did they tie you up? And since you are the prince's personal servant, why are you wearing such tattered clothes?" Yu Yunxin asked.

"Princess Yu, you want me to make the decision. Yesterday, His Royal Highness Prince Yu got married, and Concubine Li arranged for palace servants to come to the mansion to dress up. These dogs were afraid that I would report what they usually did to Prince Yu, so they tied me up and told the people who came to the palace that I was sick. Princess, you want me to make the decision!" Li Ye cried angrily.

"Okay, I understand. You go down and clean yourself up first, and then help the prince dress up and put on some decent clothes." Yu Yunxin said as she looked at Li Ye's dirty and torn clothes.

"My princess, the silk, satin, brocade and jade clothes that the prince usually wears have all been sold by these servants. The valuable things in the mansion have also been sold by them." Li Ye said, pointing at these servants.

"Li Ye, don't talk nonsense. Be careful or you will get into trouble later." said the servant who looked like a butler.

"What? Doesn't the mansion have a salary for the prince? A prince has at least fifty taels a month. Isn't that enough to cover the expenses of these people?" Yu Yunxin asked.

"Princess, there are so many people in this mansion, don't eat or drink." The housekeeper replied.

"Shut up! Did the princess ask you to speak?" Yu Yunxin looked at the butler who had just spoken with a cold light in her eyes, scaring the butler so much that he took a few steps back.

"These dogs are so bold as to bully their master. Do they really think the palace is their own home? I will send you all to the Ministry of Justice." Yu Yunxin said, looking at the more than 20 people in front of her.

When everyone heard this, they all knelt down and said, "Princess, it is we who deserve to die. Please, Princess Yu, forgive our mistakes." When everyone heard this, they all knelt down and said.

Yu Yunxin smiled and said, "Kneel down, it depends on my mood."

"Qiushuang, do you have any silver on you?" Yu Yunxin looked back at Qiushuang and asked.

"Miss, I have the monthly salary from Hui Chunyu and the silver the young lady gave me with me." Qiu Shuang said.

"Okay, this princess will borrow some money from you first. You go out and buy the prince a decent piece of clothing. Chunyu, you go and bring all the masters from Yanyu Manor. First, give us a few sets of brocade clothes for the prince to wear, and then go to the street to buy two candied haws." Yu Yunxin said, looking at Nangong Lin, who was wearing tattered clothes.

When Nangong Lin heard this, he danced with joy, clapped his hands like a child and said, "Great! My wife is really capable. I have new clothes to wear!"

Yu Yunxin once again scanned all the servants in Prince Yu's mansion and said sternly, "Listen carefully! I am the daughter of the Minister of Justice and the Princess of Xingguo! My father is Yu Tinghai! I believe you have all heard of my father's name! You must not anger me now by fighting with me, the Princess of Xingguo!"

Qiu Shuang came and went quickly, bringing back several sets of men's brocade clothes, including a blue water-patterned robe of the same color as the palace dress Yu Yunxin was wearing, with a white fox fur collar.

Yu Yunxin looked at the clothes and said, "Yes, you and Chunyu have good taste. Li Ye, please change the clothes for the prince."

Li Ye now also changed into the clothes taken off by the housekeeper. Although they were a bit big, they were better than wearing coarse cloth clothes.

Li Ye quickly dressed the prince and walked out with him. As the saying goes, clothes make the man, and Prince Yu looked much better in this outfit. Although his face was a little thin, the clothes made him look like the silly brother next door.

"My princess, this dress is so nice and comfortable." Nangong Lin, wearing a blue brocade dress, looked like a dancing butterfly. He said after turning around a few times.

Yu Yunxin glanced at Nangong Lin and couldn't help blushing. His thin and handsome face looked like a bright pearl against the background of this dress, and was particularly handsome. This was probably the most beautiful man in ancient costume that suited her aesthetic taste!

Yu Yunxin immediately retracted her gaze and said coquettishly, "Prince Yu, you are the fifth prince of Dacheng Kingdom, you should dress like this. You can dress better in the future. This is you."

Upon hearing this, Li Ye sighed in her heart: "Although Concubine Li is in the deep palace, she has chosen a very good princess for His Royal Highness Prince Yu. Our prince will be blessed in the future."

Prince Yu walked up to Yu Yunxin and acted like a child: "My dear Princess, I'm hungry, is there anything to eat?"

"Miss, when I went to Linglong Pavilion to get clothes, I bought some breakfast as well. Why don't we have some breakfast first and then think of a solution?" Chunyu said.

"Okay! Go back to the room, Li Ye, and serve the prince to have breakfast first." After Yu Yunxin finished speaking, she went back to her room and had breakfast with Prince Yu.

"Chunyu, are these all bought from Mingyanglou?" Yu Yunxin asked, looking at the exquisite bowls on the table.

"Princess, this is your favorite porridge. It's made by the newly opened porridge shop under the name of Mingyang Tower! These days, the dried seafood sent by Shopkeeper Qian and Xuan Zi from Mingyang Tower was made by the people arranged by Shopkeeper Mu. Now it tastes better and better." Chunyu picked up a bowl of fragrant rice and scallop porridge from the basket.

"Princess, this porridge is delicious. Can you give me another bowl?" Prince Yu said as he took a bite of a steamed cake.

Yu Yunxin didn't have much appetite for the time being, so she ate some steamed cakes that didn't exist in this era and was full. This porridge shop was a breakfast shop that had just opened under the name Mingyanglou. It made things that didn't exist in ancient times. Business was very busy in the morning. When Chunyu went there, in order not to cause trouble to Shopkeeper Mu, he paid more than one or two taels of silver for breakfast.

Yu Yunxin looked at Nangong Lin, who was sitting opposite her and was biting the spoon like a child eating porridge. Little Lizi on the side wiped Nangong Lin's mouth several times before he wiped the porridge off the corners of his mouth.

"You'll get tired of drinking porridge every day. Next time I'll make something delicious for Prince Yu." Yu Yunxin said as she looked at the porridge.

Nangong Lin clapped his hands upon hearing this and said, “I like to eat whatever the princess cooks!”

"Okay, now that we're full, let's go!" Yu Yunxin said as she stood up.

"Princess, are you going back home?" Chunyu asked.

"According to the rules of returning home, the princess can only do so after three days!" Li Ye said.

"No, I'll go to the Ministry of Justice to sue these dog slaves first." Yu Yunxin said, "Li Ye, go prepare the carriage."

"The carriage and sedan chair of Princess Yu's mansion were sold by the housekeeper." Little Lizi replied with some grievance.

"How ridiculous! Chunyu, go and prepare the carriage!" After Yu Yunxin finished speaking, she led Nangong Lin and others towards the door. Unexpectedly, as soon as they arrived at the door, they were stopped by four guards. There were also four masters on the roof, staring at them covetously, blocking the way of the five people who wanted to go out.

"How dare you! How dare you block the way of the prince and the princess?" Qiu Shuang was furious when she saw this.

"Stop them, don't let them go out!" The guard gave an order, and another four masters jumped down from the roof.

"Princess, Prince Yu, please don't make things difficult for us." said the leading guard.

"You are so brave, Qiu Shuang. Let's force our way out." Yu Yunxin also took a posture ready to fight, driving the spiritual energy on the purple crystal jade.

"Princess, you have been poisoned by the Black Jade Muscle Softening Powder. You won't be able to use your internal energy for seven days." said the guard.

Yu Yunxin realized it was indeed a premeditated plan. But even so, these people couldn't stop her way. She had to leave Prince Yu's Mansion today.

Although Prince Yu was stupid, he still had some skills and strength. When he saw a guard rushing towards Yu Yunxin, he kicked the guard to the ground. Li Ye clapped his hands and praised, "Your Highness is still so powerful."

Chunyu's martial arts skills were not very good and he did not have that much strength, so he was stabbed in the arm by a guard's knife.

Seeing the injured Chun Yu, Yu Yun Xin immediately pulled out the hairpin from her head and dodged to stab the guard who was stabbing Qiu Shuang with a knife, saying, "You are so brave to hurt my people."

At this moment, Yunshan, Yanluo and the other six people outside Prince Yu's mansion heard the sound from inside Prince Yu's mansion, immediately knocked down several guards outside the mansion, rushed in, and immediately tied up several guards inside the mansion.

Prince Yu kicked all three of them to the ground with a sweeping kick. Soon, the five of them were wailing on the ground, "Prince, how could you be so harsh on us?"

"You are not allowed to touch my wife. Nanny Li said that only I can touch my wife's body." Prince Yu said innocently.

Yu Yunxin looked at the mighty Prince Yu and immediately retracted her gaze to Chunyu and said, "Chunyu, your arm is injured!"

"Princess, don't worry, it's just a minor injury. Just let Qiu Shuang bandage it for me." Chun Yu gritted his teeth and said

When Li Ye saw it, he immediately took out a medicine bottle from his pocket and said, "This is the golden medicine that Nanny Li gave me before. It can not only stop bleeding but also won't leave scars for Miss Chunyu's injuries. You can use it without worry."

Qiu Shuang took the medicine bottle and immediately applied the medicine to Chun Yu like flowing water, and then bandaged it. Yu Yunxin looked back at the guards and housekeeper lying on the ground, and said in a deep voice: "Okay, don't waste time talking to them, we will deal with them when we come back. Let's go out! Prince, let's go, I'll buy you some candied haws."
