Those are all Scholars and successful imperial examination candidates, each well-versed in poetry and literature. It would be tolerable if their future wives barely recognized a few characters, but they also behave with giggles and laughter, lacking any sense of propriety.
They aspire to become court officials, and no one would want a lady of the inner courtyard who behaves like that.
Chuxi isn’t particularly beautiful either.
Xun Chuxi’s face suddenly flushed red, "Cousin-in-law..."
Feeling somewhat ashamed, especially in front of Yun Jinnian.
But she also felt that she was dependent on others, particularly since her cousin didn’t like her. She wanted to stand firm in front of her cousin-in-law but couldn’t muster the strength, so she pursed her lips, "Cousin-in-law, I’ll remember this!"
If only Xun Chuxi had a bit more pride, but alas, she was .
Witnessing this, Yun Jinnian understood.
Though Xun Chuxi had a nice name, she was really not suitable for the student in the front courtyard, regardless of status, and especially not in the way she conducted herself—there was a pettiness about her.
If she wished for happiness, marrying an honest, unconnected landlord would be better. With a generous dowry and Liao Shijie as her cousin, the husband wouldn’t dare to treat her lightly.
But who can predict the future? There might be a student who takes a fancy to Xun Chuxi and is willing to clean up the mess for her.
While they were talking, a servant came to report, "Madam, Prince Rui is here to visit!"
Yun Zihan was astonished.
Yun Jinnian was also taken aback.
Just as she was about to speak, Chu Yu had already barged in, followed by a man, none other than the second son of the loyal Prince’s Household, Chu Xinhuan.
Upon seeing Yun Jinnian, Chu Xinhuan hurriedly came forward to salute, "Princess Yijia pays her respects!"
"?" Yun Jinnian was baffled.
"Princess, my son is injured, and the Imperial Physician is at a loss. I implore Miss Yun to save my son!" Chu Xinhuan said, with utmost sincerity.
Seeing that Chu Yu had brought someone directly, Yun Jinnian realized the severity of the situation.
She quickly said to Yun Zihan, "Second Sister, I have to leave first. Please arrange for a carriage for Tianci to take him back to the Han Family."
"Princess Yijia can take my carriage!" Chu Yu said.
Yun Jinnian did not refuse, "Fine!"
In the Capital City, Chu Yu’s carriage bore a distinct emblem, and on the road, no one would dare to obstruct it.
She also said to Yun Zihan, "Please convey to Second Sister and Tianci that the matter is urgent, so I won’t tell Tianci in person. Let him enjoy himself and then go directly home!"
With Uncle Cheng escorting Tianci, she felt more at ease.
Chu Xinhuan quickly bowed with a clenched fist in salute.
Chu Yu nudged him, "Alright, alright, let’s hurry up and go!"
Yun Jinnian followed them out of the door. Henuan had already come over with the medicine chest and got directly into Chu Yu’s carriage.
Chu Yu’s carriage was large and also very warm, seating five people without feeling crowded at all, on the contrary, it was rather spacious.
"Second son, tell me, how exactly was the child injured?" Yun Jinnian asked calmly.
Chu Xinhuan did not dare to delay, "The two children were playing, and somehow, Jade managed to get hold of a hairpin and accidentally stabbed it into Agen’s eye!"
Chu Xinhuan said, his voice already choking.
A perfectly healthy child, and he was the eldest legitimate grandson of the loyal Prince’s Household.
Yun Jinnian frowned, "Directly in the eye?"
Yun Jinnian wanted to ask, what were the maids, old women, and nursemaids doing at that time? To whom did that hairpin belong? Where did it come from?
But these were domestic matters of the loyal Prince’s Household.
Most likely, by now, the loyal Prince’s Household would already be in turmoil, who knows how many people had been killed.
She sighed, "Ask the carriage to go faster."
Hearing this, Chu Xinhuan’s eyes filled with added respect when he looked at Yun Jinnian.
And he felt even more grateful towards Chu Yu.
