Pei Xiuyan left Ye Chuyan's courtyard feeling restless and had no intention of looking for Zhao Yujiao again, so he went directly to the study.

Zhao Yujiao's broken leg was mostly healed, and Pei Xiuyan ordered someone to make a wheelchair for her.

She sat at the door and waited, but she still didn't see Pei Xiuyan, and she gradually became impatient.

The servant in her courtyard who went out to inquire about the news soon came to report.

"Miss Zhao, the princess woke up. The prince went to the princess's yard and returned to the study when he came out."

Zhao Yujiao's expression changed instantly, her eyes darkened like poison, and the servant was startled.

Upon seeing this, the personal maid Hongying behind her quickly whispered: "Master, don't be anxious. The prince must have been caught up in something today, so he didn't come. Why don't I push you back to the house first?"

Zhao Yujiao was immediately relieved.

Yes, the Ye family has been ransacked, why is she anxious? It was only a matter of time before Ye Chuyan was divorced, and the position of princess was already within her reach.

Thinking of this, Zhao Yujiao turned to look at Hongying and smiled.

"Hongying, let's go see my sister tomorrow. My sister must be very sad when the Ye family is raided."

Hongying couldn't help but her eyelids twitched.

Two years ago, she was hunted down because of her father's gambling debts, so she had no choice but to borrow hundreds of silver taels from Zhao Yujiao. From then on, she was forced to become Zhao Yujiao's confidant.

Only she knew how vicious a heart lay beneath this weak and harmless face.

Pushing the princess into the lotus pond, and deliberately leaking the news that the Ye family was ransacked during the period when the princess was grounded for miscarriage.

Now, she couldn't imagine how Zhao Yujiao would stimulate the princess when she went to see her tomorrow.

Zhao Yujiao frowned slightly when she saw that Hongying was distracted, "Hongying, why don't you push me back quickly?"

Hongying quickly lowered her head and responded, "Yes, Miss Zhao."

The next day, there were dark clouds and heavy fog. Although it was already noon, the sky and the earth were desolate and grey.

Ye Chuyan was lying on the bed and suddenly said, "What day is today?" Her voice was already hoarse.

Bai Zhi was slightly excited when she heard this.

Since the prince left last night, the princess has not said a word. She has been lying like this with her eyes open until now, without sleep or rest, without eating or drinking.

No matter how she tried to persuade her, it was of no use. Now she heard that the princess was finally willing to speak.

She carefully replied: "Princess, today is the twelfth day of the twelfth lunar month."

Ye Chuyan looked sideways at Bai Zhi. She wanted to ask, where are her father and brother buried? But she didn't dare to open her mouth.

In the end, she only said in a soft and inaudible voice, "Oh..."

Although she looked at Bai Zhi, her eyes were blank.

Bai Zhi came forward with a medicine bowl, "Princess, if I know anything, I will definitely hope that you live well. Take some medicine and rest. Don't endure it like this. This slave is really scared of you."
