Only after being reborn did I realize that I was the white moonlight of a powerful minister.

“I’ve heard about it. Madam Xie, don’t pay attention to those people’s gossip. They’re just envious of you.”

Princess Chun sighed again, "But for people from ordinary families like ours, it's really hard to fit in. It's not easy for me either. At first, the arranged marriage was a surprise to my family, and we never expected the Emperor to have such a great fortune. Now I have to learn to be a wife of the imperial family, and I'm really struggling. I always end up being laughed at. I think you understand me the best."

Having lived two lives, Ye Wanning could see through Princess Chun's deliberate attempts to get close to her. It was just that Princess Chun wasn't very bright and always said things that people didn't like to hear.

"Actually, Your Highness, everyone has their own destiny. You just shouldn't worry about it. I won't take it to heart. Unimportant people and trivial matters won't affect my eating and drinking. You are already a princess, and you've said that those people are just jealous of you, so why think so much?"

“That’s true, but we live in a place like the capital, and the prince is so noble. We can’t just close the door and ignore everyone, can we?” Princess Chun asked.

Ye Wanning said it was possible, “If you want to, it is. With the Emperor and the Crown Prince in the world, if the Prince is willing to be a prince who disappears, your lives will be very good. Speaking of which, I envy you. At least, not many people dare to gossip about you.”

Ye Wanning smiled gently, her tone was very pleasant, and no one could find fault with her.

Just as Princess Chun was stunned, Ye Wanning picked her up and left, finally allowing her to catch her breath.

Yunzhi whispered from the side, "It seems that this Princess Chun is trying to win you and the Lord over."

"The affairs of the court are for the adults to handle; we won't interfere, but we also can't hold them back." After Ye Wanning finished speaking, she gestured for Yunzhi to stop talking, as someone had arrived.

Originally, the Chun King and his wife had no intention of vying for the throne, as it was far too difficult. However, the allure of the throne was too great, and since the power of the Xian King and others had nowhere to rely, it was a good opportunity to elevate the Chun King, making him believe that he now had the capital to compete.

Thinking about these things gave Ye Wanning a headache.

What's so good about the throne?

One by one, they fought tooth and nail for the throne, and General Lu has yet to return with his troops.

When it was almost time to leave the palace, Ye Wanning went to greet Princess Xihe first. Princess Xihe was talking to the Empress in the inner room, and Ye Wanning took the opportunity to pay her respects to the Empress.

"It's Wan Ning. I was just asking Xi He where you went." The Empress looked at Ye Wan Ning affectionately. "You look quite haggard. Were you worried about Xie Bohuai?"

Ye Wanning said yes.

"Actually, both the Empress and the Emperor trust him. It seems someone is interfering, so you don't need to worry too much. I believe in the character of someone who was trusted by the late Emperor." As soon as the Empress finished speaking, Xihe agreed.

"Xie Bohuai is incredibly capable; there's nothing he can't do." Princess Xihe had something to say to Ye Wanning, so after a hurried farewell, she pulled Ye Wanning outside. "I'm asking you, after you married Xie Bohuai, did you fall for him?"

She had wanted to ask this for a long time, but had never had the chance. Now was the perfect opportunity to see Ye Wanning off.

"Why does Your Highness ask this?" Ye Wanning asked.

"I'm just concerned about you. You used to be quite afraid of Xie Bohuai, but now that you're his wife, I want you to be happy, that's why I'm asking. Just now, I saw you were worried about him. Could it be that you two are really in love?" Princess Xihe looked at Ye Wanning nervously.

Denying this would cause too much trouble, and Ye Wanning was already in cahoots with Xie Bohuai. Princess Xihe was simple-minded, so it was best not to let her think too much. Ye Wanning softly hummed in agreement.

"Really?" Princess Xihe's eyes lit up instantly. "Hongmei, go tell Mother that I'm going back with Wanning today." She wanted to hear Ye Wanning talk about how they got along. She really couldn't understand what it was about Xie Bohuai that attracted Wanning.

Princess Xihe's gossipy nature was almost overflowing.

Hongmei looked at her master with difficulty, "Your Highness, isn't this inappropriate? Her Majesty the Empress forbids you from leaving the palace."

Fearing that Princess Xihe would really follow her out and keep asking questions, Ye Wanning quickly said, "Yes, Your Highness, it's too late today. Let's do it another day. Besides, there's nothing to say about this. It's just a simple matter, nothing special."

"Huh?" Princess Xihe's face immediately fell. "But that's Xie Bohuai, such a cold and ruthless person. It really makes me very curious."

"Your Highness, Xie Bohuai is really just an ordinary person." Ye Wanning glanced at Hongmei and quickly said goodbye to Princess Xihe.

Even after leaving the palace, Ye Wanning was still worried.

Yunzhi couldn't help but sigh, "Princess Xihe really cares about you."

"I really don't know how to tell her," Ye Wanning sighed.

“Actually, the master is indeed very good. Since you got married, apart from being a little busy, he has listened to your arrangements in everything and has been very considerate to you. Madam, when the master comes back, would you like to…” Yunzhi stopped speaking when she saw the carriage being led over.

Master and servant boarded the carriage. It was already pitch black outside. Zhezhu drove the carriage, keeping a watchful eye on their surroundings.

Ye Wanning was a little tired and was about to rest when the carriage suddenly stopped.

"Zhezhu, what's wrong?" Yunzhi asked, lifting the curtain. At the same time, she saw Zhao Chuan suddenly appear in front of the carriage and quickly lowered the curtain. "Madam, it's Zhao Chuan."

Ye Wanning then remembered Zhao Chuan; he really was persistent and had come looking for her.

"What should we do? Should we have Zhezhu knock him unconscious and dump him outside the city?" Yunzhi asked.

Ye Wanning said it was inappropriate, "He is now an official of the imperial court. If anything were to happen to him, it would damage your reputation."

As soon as she finished speaking, Ye Wanning heard Zhao Chuan's voice coming from outside the carriage.

"Madam Xie, it's good to meet an old friend. Won't you come out and greet him?" Zhao Chuan almost bit his teeth off as he said this.
