The Crown Princess is unparalleled in beauty ( Mtl

When Ms. Cui arrived, she obviously felt that the atmosphere in the hall was a bit strange.

　　The courtiers on the left and right glanced in one direction from time to time, and then quickly looked away as if they were afraid of being noticed.

　　This is?

　　Mrs. Cui was confused and followed their gazes. Sure enough, she found the three members of the Yu family at an ebony screen.

　　They gathered together and were talking passionately.

　　"Nanny, don't dare to be so impulsive in the future." Ms. Cui heard her husband's voice.

　　Although he meant to blame, his tone was gentle and he was obviously not angry.

　　"Aye, I'm so angry." The girl's soft voice sounded, "Yu Wenhuai has been prejudiced against my aunt before. Today he is forcing me so much, how can I be a coward? I only hate myself. ‌The scolding wasn’t strong enough.”

　　The girl looked quite regretful.

　　"Yan'er is right." Another man's voice sounded, "Brother, I have long disliked this guy Yu Wenhuai. It's okay for Yan'er to do this."

　　Yu Zhongxun grinned, his expression full of praise for his niece's "outspokenness". He looked around and quickly spotted Cui walking this way.

　　"Sister-in-law is here!"

　　He reminded Yu Boyan loudly, and sure enough he found that his brother who was about to speak stopped talking.

　　"Mother! Second sister-in-law!"

　　Yu Xingyan stepped forward to meet her, took Cui's arm obediently, and took her sister over.

　　"What happened?" Ms. Cui was puzzled.

　　She touched her daughter's delicate wrist as a sign of comfort.

　　The eunuch who brought them here spoke briefly. She only knew that her daughter was suddenly granted a title, but she never understood the reason.

　　"Well--"

　　Yu Zhongxun paused and briefly explained what happened.

　　"That's it."

　　Mrs. Cui was stunned when she heard this.

　　She knew that her daughter had gone through a lot of troubles with His Highness the Crown Prince some time ago. But she did not expect that her daughter would present "Five Strategies for Water Control" to His Highness.

　　Just looking at the reactions of her husband and brother-in-law, it seems that they did not expect Xingyan to have such a talent.

　　Mrs. Cui suppressed her doubts and continued to listen to her brother-in-law talking about how smart her daughter was just now, how she rebuked Yu Wenhuai until her face turned red, and how the courtiers were so shocked.

　　After hearing this, Mrs. Cui already had some thoughts in her mind. When I thought about what my husband said, I felt a little dissatisfied.

　　"My daughter did what I wanted. There's nothing to criticize." Ms. Cui didn't have too many worries and was the first to express her attitude.

　　She was not present at the time, otherwise she would have scolded the governor Naoshizi to death.

　　If she had to say, these literati are too particular about what they say! They are not refreshing enough!

　　"Madam, you misunderstood me." Yu Boyan sighed slightly and explained: "I am afraid that my daughter is too sharp and may be harmed if she acts like this in the future. Today she refuted Yu Wenhuai, although she was relieved for a while. I am angry, but I am completely on the opposite side of the local aristocratic family in Qingzhou."
