After the little bun washed up, Yu Yunxi held his hand and walked out of the room.

Meng Xia, who was watching from the side, was shocked. After all, she had never seen Yu Yunxi so happy before.

‘Is it because this child is about the same age as the Eldest Princess’ child with the Prince Regent of Tianxia? Perhaps she’s treating this child like her child…’

“Is the meal ready?” Yu Yunxi asked.

Meng Xia quickly replied, “It’ll be done soon, Eldest Princess.”

“Alright. Are the candidates for the new maidservants here? If so, let Junjin make the selection, ” Yu Yunxi said.

The little bun’s eyes lit up as he nodded. In his eyes, Qian Qing and the others were very capable so he was certain that they would find a way to enter the

King of Zhenbei’s Residence. He wanted all of them here so they could protect

Yu Yunxi.

Seeing how excited the little bun was, Yu Yunxi was very happy. After ordering Yu’er to bring the little bun to the front yard, she asked Meng Xia in a low voice, “What are the candidates like?”

Meng Xia also replied in a low voice, “Eldest Princess, there are six candidates in total. Their backgrounds are all clean, but… three of them are a little strange…”

Realization dawned on Yu Yunxi when she heard these words. She was certain that the little bun would choose those three people.

When Yu Yunxi arrived at the front yard, she saw the little bun standing in front of six women.

The three women standing on the right lowered their heads in fear. They were a stark contrast compared to the three women on the left.

‘The three on the left are indeed… different…

Needless to say, the three women on the left were Qian Qing, Qian Jiao, and Qian Mei. When they saw Yu Yunxi, tears welled up in their eyes.

‘It’s really the County Princess! It’s really her! She’s not dead!’

Although Yu Yunxi had no memory of her past, she could sense the trio’s sincerity. With this, how could she not know they were her old friends? Her heart sank when she thought about how she had no memories of them.

Upon seeing Yu Yunxi, the little bun pointed at the trio decisively and said,

“Sister, I want the three of them to stay.”

“Alright, everyone can take their leave,” Yu Yunxi said before she turned to the trio and said, “The three of you will serve me in my courtyard.”

Tears streamed down Qian Qing’s face when she heard this. She fought back her tears as she said, “Yes, I understand.”

“Yu’er, bring Junjin to eat first. I want to speak to the new maidservants first,”

Yu Yunxi said.

“Yes, Eldest Princess.”

When only Yu Yunxi, Meng Xia, Qian Qing, Qian Jiao, and Qian Mei were left,

Yu Yunxi looked at the trio and asked, “What are your names?”

Qian Qing and the other two kneeled on the ground. They frowned, feeling flustered. After all, they had yet to think of what names to use. Unexpectedly, Yu Yunxi said, “What are your names in Tianxia?”

The trio’s eyes lit up as soon as they heard these words.

“County Princess, did you regain your memory?”

Yu Yunxi stepped forward and helped them up as she said, “No, but I can roughly guess your identities.”

‘So the County Princess has yet to regain her memory?’

Qian Qing had mixed feelings at this moment.

Yu Yunxi patted Qian Qing’s shoulder and said gently, “Tell me about yourself and my situation in Tianxia.”

“Yes.”

Qian Qing did not hesitate and immediately told Yu Yunxi about all the things that had happened over the years.

‘To think that I had such a past…’

Yu Yunxi took a deep breath to calm down after she listened to Qian Qing. With Qian Qing’s retelling of her past, her understanding also grew deeper.

“From now on, you’ll continue to stay by my side. You can continue using your original names, but you can’t address me as County Princess anymore,” Yu Yunxi said.

“Yes, Eldest Princess!”

Qian Qing, Qian Jiao, and Qian Mei nodded in unison. Their names and the way they addressed Yu Yunxi did not matter. The only thing that mattered was that they could stay by Yu Yunxi’s side.

Qian Qing hesitated for a moment before she said, “Eldest Princess, since you know about us, then the Prince Regent…

“I know. He’s the King of Youshan,” Yu Yunxi said truthfully.

‘Tianxia’s Prince Regent is the King of Youshan?! Then that child… No wonder the Eldest Princess treated him so well. As it turns out, he’s her son…’

Meng Xia- who was standing at the side. was thoroughly shocked- Then. When she regained her senses, she began to think of ways to protect Yu Yunxi.

‘I must hide this from the Emperor Emeritus. Otherwise, the little prince will be in danger…’

Meanwhile, Yu Yunxi said, “You must not let Feng Yili know about this…” Yu Yunxi did not know how to face Feng Yili yet, after all.

At this time, Meng Xia could not help but add, “Eldest Princess, you also can’t acknowledge the little prince yet. Otherwise…:

Qian Qing and the others were not fools. They could instantly guess the situation so they quickly nodded.

“We swear to keep these secrets for the Eldest Princess.”

When Yu Yunxi arrived at the dining hall, she discovered that the people from the second branch of the Yu family were absent. She was puzzled by this. After all, they liked to make their presence known as though they were trying to show that they were the masters of the King of Zhenbei’s Residence. Although she usually ate in her own courtyard, she knew that they usually ate here. ‘Why are they not here? Forget it. I can’t be bothered to guess their thoughts…’ In any case, without them here, Yu Yunxi would feel much more comfortable.

Yu Yunxi walked over to the little bun and said gently, “Hurry up and eat. Don’t go hungry.”

Then, the mother and son ate together.

Just as they were almost done with their meal, Meng Xia hurried in from outside and said, “Eldest Princess, I know why there are no movements from the second branch of the Yu family today.”

“Why?”

“They’re preparing Yu Xiaoxiao for the autumn hunt today.”

“The autumn hunt?”

“That’s right. There are two hunts in Xichu every year: the spring hunt and the autumn hunt. This year’s autumn hunt was supposed to take place in half a month, but for some reason, it was suddenly brought forward. The Emperor tasked the Fourth Prince with organizing the autumn hunt. The invitations had been sent out to the ministers and their families, and you, the Eldest Princess, are the only one who didn’t receive an invitation. If the Emperor Emeritus didn’t send someone to tell me about this, I wouldn’t have known about it,” Meng Xia said angrily.

It was clear that the Fourth Prince had deliberately excluded Yu Yunxi.

Nonetheless, Yu Yunxi was very calm. She said mockingly, “It seems like many people in Xichu dislike me. However, I’m very interested in the autumn hunt.

The more they don’t want me to go, the more I want to go.”

Then, Yu Yunxi said, “Meng Xia, make the preparations. We’ll leave after this.”

“Yes, Eldest Princess,” Meng Xia replied. She could barely contain her excitement when she saw that Yu Yunxi intended to participate in the autumn hunt. She was previously worried that those people would think that Yu Yunxi was a pushover.

At this moment, the little bun said worriedly, “Sister, will the autumn hunt be dangerous? I want to go with you..”
