The soul-transmigrating princess was neglected, and the twins beat up their father

Chapter 129 It was clearly intentional

The princess's beautiful eyes seemed to be spitting fire as she stared intently at Ye Chuxue. Her voice was like thunder, suddenly rising several notches: "What did you say? Ye Xinrou has actually returned to the Prime Minister's residence? When did this happen?"

Ye Chuxue nodded slightly, her expression extremely serious and solemn. She responded seriously, "Yes, Princess. Just before you and my brother arrived, I personally visited Ye Xinrou in the prison. Considering that we are family after all, I gave her a light punishment and allowed her to return home."

At this point, Ye Chuxue paused, then turned her gaze towards the eldest princess with a puzzled expression. She then asked, "Auntie, I don't know why you are so surprised to hear that Ye Xinrou has returned to the Prime Minister's residence."

At this moment, the eldest princess' heart was surging like a volcano, and her anger was almost bursting out of her chest.

And when her eyes fell on the set of warm jade jewelry on the table that she had originally intended to give to Ye Xinrou, she felt so heartbroken that she almost vomited blood.

This extremely despicable Ye Xinrou, it would have been fine if she had sneaked back to the Prime Minister's Mansion by herself, but she even refused to send someone to inform her, causing her to lose such a priceless set of precious jewelry for no reason!

However, although she was furious, the eldest princess relied on the forbearance she had acquired during her many years of palace life to suppress her anger.

She managed a stiff smile with great difficulty, and spoke in a calm tone, "It's...it's okay, Xue'er. You are so broad-minded and kind-hearted, it's truly admirable. It's just...it's just that you should have informed me in advance about letting Ye Xinrou go."

Ye Chuxue's delicate face was filled with innocence as she softly said, "How dare I bother the Imperial Aunt with such a trivial matter? I simply never imagined that Ye Xinrou, the daughter of the Prime Minister, would attract such attention and concern from the Imperial Aunt."

At this moment, Yun Mushu's face was as gloomy as the sky before a storm. He stared at Yun Muheng with displeasure, and said through gritted teeth, "You clearly did this on purpose!"

Yun Muheng waved his hand leisurely, a sly smile on his face as he responded, "Royal brother, this is a huge misunderstanding! I had no idea Xue'er would go to the prison to release Ye Xinrou. Besides, you came here to apologize to Xue'er on Ye Xinrou's behalf. As for Ye Xinrou's whereabouts, it doesn't seem to be related to this, right?"

Upon hearing this, Yun Mushu was furious, his eyes widening in anger as he stared at Yun Muheng intently, as if he was about to spit fire. He gritted his teeth and said, "You..."

Yun Mushu then took a deep breath, suppressing the rage in his heart. He turned abruptly, his eyes icy cold as ice as frost, and asked in a stiff and cold tone, "Then why did you remain silent when I apologized to you on behalf of Ye Xinrou? Why didn't you even respond?"

Ye Chuxue couldn't help but frown slightly, and explained with difficulty, "Royal brother, you hoped that I would forgive Ye Xinrou at that time. However, my letting her return to the Prime Minister's Mansion does not mean that I have forgiven her mistakes. At that time, I was considering whether to forgive her. If you had asked me to let her go directly from the beginning, I would definitely tell you the truth without reservation."

Yun Mushu stood up abruptly in a rage, his handsome face flushed crimson with anger. He stared at the people in front of him with wide eyes, gritting his teeth and saying, "Since I have already apologized to my sister-in-law on behalf of Ye Xinrou, and you have all accepted this courtesy, then I will not bother you any more!"

After saying that, he flicked his sleeves and turned to leave.

At the same time, the eldest princess slowly stood up. Her face was dignified, and she said softly, "Since Prince Yunqing intends to leave, it will be inconvenient for me to stay here for long. I will return to the palace now."

As soon as the words fell, Yun Muheng and Ye Chuxue hurriedly bowed slightly to the princess and said in unison, "Farewell, Princess."

After the Princess and Yun Mushu had gradually walked away and disappeared from sight, Ye Chuxue finally raised her head. Her beautiful eyes looked at Yun Muheng with a hint of doubt, her eyebrows slightly furrowed as she asked, "Your Highness, why are you suddenly asking for two shops for me? I have no intention of opening any shops at the moment."

Yun Muheng smiled slightly, walked over to Ye Chuxue, patted her shoulder gently, and said softly, "I know you've put a lot of effort into Wenxiang Pavilion. Be good and listen, and don't continue to cooperate with Ouyang Zhi. These two shops are excellent locations specially selected for you. As long as you manage them well, you will definitely make a lot of money."

Ye Chuxue rolled her eyes at him helplessly and said unhappily, "Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness, but I really don't need these two shops right now. But... it's okay to keep them for now. Who knows, maybe one day I'll suddenly feel like thinking about what kind of business I can do."

After saying this, she shook her head gently, then turned and walked slowly out the door.

Seeing that Ye Chuxue didn't take his warning seriously, Yun Muheng anxiously shouted after her, "Xue'er, don't be fooled by Ouyang Zhi's appearance! He is insidious and cunning, with ulterior motives. He is definitely not a kind person. If you get close to him, you will definitely suffer from him!"

However, Ye Chuxue seemed to have not heard it. She didn't even turn her head. She just waved her hand casually and replied lightly: "I know." After that, she continued to move forward on her own.

After the eldest princess and Yun Mushu walked out of Prince Yunxin's Mansion, a trace of resentment suddenly flashed in the eldest princess's beautiful eyes.

She gritted her teeth, her voice so cold it seemed to freeze the air as she snarled, "Hmph! Everything that happened today was caused by that little bitch Ye Xinrou! Come, follow me to the Prime Minister's residence. I'm going to have a good talk with the Prime Minister and try to recover some of my losses. I can't let this priceless set of warm jade jewelry go to waste for nothing!"

Yun Mushu, standing by, also had a face filled with rage. He echoed indignantly, "Your Highness is absolutely right! Not only have you suffered heavy losses this time, but my loss as a nephew is also immeasurable!"

Those two profitable shops were a vital source of income for half of my palace's expenses. Now that they've been lost so easily, I can't swallow this humiliation! We must get all our losses back from the Prime Minister this time!"
