The more cowardly a person is, the more wild they are; I've driven the villainous minister craz

Prince Chen indeed had matters to attend to and could not stay.

Left with no other choice, they could only send two personal guards to stay behind and keep an eye on Wang Wanshu.

He also specifically instructed Qiaobi, "Your princess has been a bit confused lately, Qiaobi. Today you must keep a close eye on her for me. If she causes any more trouble, I will hold you responsible!"

Qiaobi was startled and quickly lowered her head in agreement.

"Yes, Your Highness, rest assured, this servant will persuade the Princess."

That's what they say, but once Wang Wanshu has made up her mind to do something, how can she possibly dissuade her?

After seeing Prince Chen off, Yu Wan hurriedly distanced herself from Yun Shang.

Noticing her sudden movement, Yun Shang looked up at her.

His eyes seemed to be asking a question.

Yu Wan pretended not to see anything and turned her head to the side.

They're just tools; it's normal to use them and then throw them away.

Yun Shang stared at her for a few seconds, a hint of helplessness flashing in his eyes.

After Prince Chen, no more guests came to visit.

Although the dean and several teachers of Bailu Academy could not come in person, they all sent congratulatory gifts. Many of Yunshang's classmates also came to offer their congratulations.

There were more than a dozen tables set up in the main courtyard, and it was bustling with noise and activity.

Everyone sat together chatting with smiles on their faces. Madam Shen was busy greeting the guests, and Yunxi also moved a recliner to sit on the porch, looking at the lively new home with a smile on her face.

Her gaze swept around the courtyard, and when she saw a spot, her eyes paused.

Just then, Madam Shen passed by with a cup of tea, and Yunxi called out to her, "Mother, who is that young lady? She seems to have an extraordinary air about her, not like a friend of ours..."

She knew most of the Yun family's relatives and friends, but her brother's friends were all men, never women.

Following the direction Yunxi pointed, Madam Shen frowned upon seeing the elegant figure that seemed out of place with the surroundings. "Why is she here?"

Yunxi, being quick-witted, immediately realized something.

She lowered her voice, "Mother, could this be that princess?"

Her mother rarely showed her disgust on her face, but she could not help but show her dislike when this princess was mentioned.

Shen affirmed Yunxi's words and lowered her head to say to her, "Yunshang and Yu Niang would never want her to come in. I'm afraid this princess is using her power to oppress people again. On our joyous day, she has to cause us trouble. It's really bad luck."

Madam Shen frowned and muttered a few curses under her breath, then instructed Yunxi, "This princess is a big problem. Don't pay any attention to her. If she comes to talk to you, don't pay any attention to her either, understand?"

Yunxi knew that Princess Tianyin had tried to harm Yu Wan several times, so she naturally sided with her sister-in-law and nodded firmly, "Mother, don't worry, I won't talk to her."

Only then did Mrs. Shen feel at ease and go about her business.

Meanwhile, Wang Wanshu, who was frowning and complaining that the courtyard was too small and noisy, also saw Yunxi.

Upon seeing Yunxi's face, she couldn't help but be momentarily stunned.

She proclaimed herself the most beautiful woman, and from Shengjing to Huicheng, and even throughout the entire Dazhao Kingdom, no one could surpass her in appearance.

But the girl sitting in the recliner was just as beautiful as her!

And she looks even younger than her. If she grows up in two more years, this title of the most beautiful woman will probably be taken by someone else!

After a moment's thought, Wang Wanshu guessed the girl's identity.

She is most likely Yun Shang's younger sister, Yun Xi.

In her previous life, when she first met Yun Shang, both Shen Shi and Yun Xi were already dead, so she naturally hadn't seen them.

I never expected Yunxi to be so beautiful.

Wang Wanshu felt a little uncomfortable, but she didn't show it. After thinking for a moment, she walked towards where Yunxi was.

Qiaobi's heart immediately went on alert, and she quickly chased after her, asking in a low voice, "Princess, where are you going?"

Wang Wanshu said, "I'm just taking a walk. Don't worry, I won't cause any more trouble."

If she continues to target Yu Wan, she will only push Yun Shang further away.

So she decided to try a different strategy.

"You must be Yun Shang's younger sister, Yun Xi?"

A soft, gentle female voice sounded in her ear, and Yunxi tilted her head.

She had actually seen Wang Wanshu walking towards her a long time ago, but she had been pretending not to see anything.

Remembering Shen's instructions, Yunxi didn't speak, but glanced at Wang Wanshu, asking her with her eyes what was wrong.

Wang Wanshu felt a little dissatisfied after not hearing her response for a long time.

Meeting the beautiful eyes of the young girl, Wang Wanshu suppressed her displeasure and smiled at her, saying, "You are so beautiful. This is the first time I have ever seen a girl who is more beautiful than me."

As she spoke, she took off a fine white jade bracelet from her wrist and handed it to Yunxi, saying, "Young girls all like to look pretty. I see your wrists are bare. How about I give you this jade bracelet?"

"Your skin is so fair and delicate, it will definitely look good on you."

Yunxi looked at Wang Wanshu, who was trying to befriend her, with a puzzled expression.

What does this princess mean? She just set fire to the Yun family's house, and now she's sending her a bracelet? Is she crazy?

Yunxi felt somewhat annoyed.

She could tell that the princess wasn't genuinely praising her.

He didn't even glance at her face more than a few times.

Unlike her sister-in-law, who genuinely thinks she's beautiful and doesn't even blink when talking to her.

Yunxi thought for a moment, then simply closed her eyes.

She is physically weak, so it's normal for her to faint from time to time.

Wang Wanshu's expression changed instantly.

She looked at Yunxi, whose eyes were tightly closed, then turned to look at Qiaobi, suppressing her anger, and said, "What does she mean by this?!"

Not wanting to cause too much trouble, Qiaobi smiled and comforted Wang Wanshu, "Princess, I heard that Young Master Yun's sister suffers from a heart ailment and often falls into a deep sleep. I suppose she was just tired and that's why she suddenly fell asleep."

Wang Wanshu didn't believe this at all.

But she also remembered that she couldn't cause any more trouble, so she could only swallow her anger.

As she left, she turned and glared at the girl who was fast asleep in the wicker chair.

If it weren't for the fact that she's Yun Shang's younger sister, why would she personally deliver the bracelet to her? What a blind fool!

When she heard no more noise, Yunxi's eyelids twitched. Just as she was about to open her eyes, she heard footsteps approaching again.

She immediately pretended to be asleep.

A moment later, a voice suppressing laughter rang in my ears, along with a faint fragrance of plum blossoms.

"Stop pretending to be asleep. Want to try some freshly baked plum blossom cake?"

Upon hearing the familiar voice, Yunxi immediately opened her eyes.

Yu Wan was seen squatting with a smile beside her recliner, holding a small porcelain plate with a few steaming plum blossom cakes on it.

Yunxi's eyes lit up instantly, and she whispered, "How did you know I love plum blossom cake, sister-in-law?"

Yu Wan winked at her and whispered, "I heard you secretly ask Yun Shang to bring you plum blossom cakes from the street yesterday."

Old Master Feng had instructed Yunxi to eat less sweets recently, so Madam Shen had been forbidding Yunxi from eating sweets. But perhaps because of the medicine she had been taking for many years, Yunxi had a particular craving for sweets, and she would crave them after a few days without them.

Yu Wan took a piece and handed it to Yun Xi, saying softly, "Eat without worry. I asked Elder Feng, and he said you can eat a little. I specifically instructed the pastry chef in the kitchen to put less sugar in these pieces, so they only have a light sweetness. Try them and see if you like them."

Yunxi's eyes were bright, as if they were glistening with water.

She lowered her head expectantly and took a bite of the plum blossom cake, instantly beaming with joy.

She looked up at Yu Wan and whispered, "Sister-in-law, can you always be my sister-in-law?"

"In this life, I will only recognize you as my sister-in-law. Even if my brother falls in love with someone else in the future, I will not acknowledge you."
