At noon, after Chu Yunxuan left the court, as soon as he entered the main gate, the butler noticed his foul mood, with a depressed expression, low eyebrows tightly furrowed, a clear sign of encountering unpleasant matters in the palace.
Thus, everyone bowed their heads and kept their mouths shut, attending to him cautiously without a hint of negligence.
Finally, the butler whispered.
"Your Highness, the Prince Consort has returned and is currently waiting for you in the dining hall to have a meal."
At the mention of the Prince Consort, a fierce anger flashed in Chu Yunxuan's eyes.
"She's back? How dare she come back!"
In the dining room, Jiang Lai was sipping her floral tea nonchalantly, and upon seeing Chu Yunxuan storming in angrily, she calmly stood up to greet him.
"Your Highness is back. The meal is prepared, please have dinner."
Chu Yunxuan walked straight to her, grabbed her wrist fiercely, and said.
"What nonsense have you and your family been spreading!"
