Qian Qing quickly nodded. “That’s right. You, Prince Feng, and the young master have the same token. The token reflects your status. With this token, there’s no doubt he’s really Prince Feng.”

Qian Qing could barely hide her excitement as she spoke. After all, the King of Xinan’s Residence had been looking for Feng Sheng for many years.

“If His Highness and the madam know about this, they’ll be very happy. Eldest Princess, should I write a letter to them and inform them about this matter?” Qian Qing asked.

Previously, after learning that Yu Yunxi was still alive, Qian Qing had already written a letter to the King of Xinan’s Residence to inform them about the good news. It would be great if they could deliver another piece of good news.

However, Yu Yunxi quickly shook her head and said, “No. Let’s keep this to ourselves for now.”

Feng Sheng was determined to avenge his mother. For this matter, he did not return to Xinan for many years. Perhaps he was afraid of implicating the King of Xinan’s Residence.

For this reason, Yu Yunxi decided to hide the matter for now.

Qian Qing calmed down after listening to Yu Yunxi’s words. She had also roughly guessed that Feng Sheng must have had his own reasons for not returning to Xinan for so many years.

Qian Qing hurriedly said, “I understand, Eldest Princess.”

At night.

In the King of Zhenbei’s Residence.

Yu Yunxi had just asked the kitchen staff to prepare food when a few old nannies, who served Old Madam Zhou, arrived.

One of the old nannies said, “Eldest Princess, the Old Madam wants you to eat in the dining hall.”

The old nanny’s tone could not be considered disrespectful, but if one listened carefully, one would find that it sounded rather authoritative.

Yu Yunxi acted as though she did not hear the old nanny. She only said coldly,

“Meng Xia, the flies buzzing around are too noisy. Chase them out.”

Seeing Meng Xia holding a broom to chase them away, the old nannies’ faces turned red in anger. They did not expect Yu Yunxi to be so rude.

‘No matter what the Old Madam is her elder! So what if she has a noble status? If she doesn’t show respect to her elders, she’ll still be criticized! Moreover, if news of this reaches the Emperor, it won’t do her any good!’

When the broom was about to land, the old nanny gritted her teeth and said,

“The two Duchesses from Duke Ying’s Residence and Duke Yu’s Residence are here today.

Realization dawned on Meng Xia when she heard these words. She quickly turned to Yu Yunxi and whispered, “Eldest Princess, the King of Zhenbei was indebted to them when he was young.”

Meng Xia’s words seemed to boost the old nannies’ confidence. They straightened their backs and raised their chins proudly as they looked at Yu

Yunxi.

“The two Duchesses’ identities are special. In the past, their husbands followed the Emperor Emeritus to conquer the land. In the early years, the Yu family was in a bad state. It was thanks to their help that the King of Zhenbei was able to go to the battlefield. Over the years, they had always maintained contact with the King of Zhenbei’s Residence. The Commandery Princess feels grateful so she has always been respectful toward them. As the daughter of the King of Zhenbei, don’t tell me you don’t even know this bit of etiquette.”

Yu Yunxi sneered. She slowly rose to her feet before she said coldly, “I’ll meet the two Duchesses. However, this is not a reason for you unruly slaves to behave so arrogantly in front of me. Meng Xia, since they don’t know the rules, teach them a lesson.”

“Yes, Eldest Princess!” Meng Xia said. She could barely hide her excitement. She had long wanted to teach these people a lesson.

Before the old nannies could react, they were beaten by Meng Xia with a broom until they saw stars. They shrieked in pain, looking extremely pathetic and miserable. It did not take long before they kneeled on the ground in pain and pleaded for mercy.

With that, Yu Yunxi casually told Meng Xia to stop.

Thinking that this was the end of it, the old nannies sighed in relief inwardly. Unexpectedly, they heard Yu Yunxi say flatly, “Meng Xia, there are some people who can’t understand human language. No matter how much we speak, they still won’t understand the rules. Meng Xia, tie their hands and their feet and let them kneel at the entrance of the King of Zhenbei’s Residence for a day and a night. Let’s see who dares to act presumptuously in the future.”

“Eldest Princess, please spare us. Please show mercy!”

The old nannies were frightened out of their wits. They were all advanced in age. If they kneeled for a day and a night, they would not likely be unable to walk again.

Their screams could still be heard after they were dragged away.

Yu Yunxi’s expression was extremely cold at this moment. She usually disdained to deal with these servants, but some of them really did not know what was good for them.

“Qian Qing, let’s go. Follow me to the dining hall.”

Qian Qing frowned and said, “Eldest Princess, your status is noble. Even if the two Duchesses’ identities are special, there’s no need for you to personally meet them.”

“I know. However, since they helped my father in the past, I still have to show them some respect,” Yu Yunxi said with a nod.

Qian Qing nodded. She knew that Yu Yunxi was doing this for the King of

Before Yu Yunxi entered the hall, she already heard the laughter inside.

Old Madam Ying held Yu Xiaoxiao’s hand and said to Old Madam Zhou with a smile, “Sister Zhou, Xiaoxiao is really sensible. On the contrary, my granddaughter is really naughty.”

Old Madam Zhou did not seem to know humility at all. She said proudly, “I only have one granddaughter. I naturally have to teach her well…”

The atmosphere turned awkwvard as soon as Old Madam Zhou’s words fell.

Yu Shuangshuang and the others, who were seated in the corner, fidgeted uneasily and looked bitter.

‘Indeed. Only legitimate descendants exist in Grandmother’s eyes… As daughters and sons of concubines, our statuses aren’t that much different from a servant…’

‘However, has Grandmother forgotten? Although Yu Xiaoxiao is her biological granddaughter, there’s also the noble Eldest Princess. Although they’re not related by blood and the Eldest Princess doesn’t acknowledge Grandmother,

Grandmother’s words are still inappropriate…’

Meanwhile, Old Madam Ying and Old Madam Yu exchanged a look.

Madam Shang instantly noticed the gaffe, and she hurriedly said with a smile, “Mother, you must be tired. Our King of Zhenbei’s Residence has two legitimate daughters. Yunxi is also a legitimate daughter. Although Xiaoxiao has been with you for a long time, you can’t be biased. Yunxi is also a good child. She was wandering outside for so many years and had suffered a lot. Even if she refuses to pay respect to you and acknowledge us, we’re still a family. We have to show her more care.”

Madam Shang sounded like she was speaking for Yu Yunxi, but if one listened carefully, she was clearly criticizing Yu Yunxi.

“Sister Zhou, the Eldest Princess… She really didn’t pay her respect to you?” Old Madam Ying asked with a frown.Googlᴇ search ɴovel(ꜰ)ɪre.nᴇt

Duke Ying, Old Madam Ying’s husband, was also a master of etiquette. Most of the books on etiquette in Xichu were compiled by him. The Ying family had the trust of the imperial family for the past few hundred years because they strictly followed etiquette, and no one could find any fault with them.

Apart from that, many women in the palace, including the Empress, various consorts, princesses, and even palace maids, had been taught etiquette by the Ying family.

For all these reasons, it was unsurprising that Old Madam Ying found Yu

Yunxi’s actions inappropriate..
