After my mother read my mind, my whole family rebelled

Daxia, Yongfu Palace.

Anaj was telling Shen Yuyao bit by bit about how she first met the prince.

Shen Yuyao was also listening attentively.

Shen Yuyao looked into Anajji's eyes, and she believed that what Anajji said was true.

This win-win-win marriage will definitely succeed!

At this time, Shen Yuyao became more confident in her original plan.

"Later," Shen Yuyao asked, "did you never see each other again?"

There was a glimmer of tenderness in Anajee's eyes as she recounted the story of how she first met the prince. It seemed as if she had spent all her strength, and she slowly sat down on the soft chair.

Shen Yuyao also sat on the soft chair next to her, picked up the brewed tea on the round table and took a sip.

"The tea is cold." Shen Yuyao frowned slightly and thought that the palace servants in Yongfu Palace were really too negligent.

"Later," Anaji didn't notice Shen Yuyao saying the tea was cold, but continued to narrate, "Another time, I saw him in the academy."

At this moment, Shen Yuyao seemed to see that when she was still in the boudoir, she had told her mother about her first meeting with Prince Ning.

When a woman has someone in her heart, her eyes will always betray her thoughts when not paying attention, and others can see it clearly.

The corners of Shen Yuyao's lips couldn't help but curve up a little. At that time, she must have been as beautiful as Anaj now, almost dazzlingly beautiful.

"That was the second time I saw him..." The tenderness in Anajee's eyes became even stronger, and a few hints of pink appeared on her pretty face.

On the day the city was captured, Anaj fainted in the inn and slept until noon the next day before waking up slowly.

When the shopkeeper learns that Anaj has woken up, he rushes to her room.

The shopkeeper handed Anajji a stack of banknotes and a bundle, and told her that these were left for her by the young man who sent her to the inn, and that he had reserved a room specifically for Anajji in the inn.

"That gentleman said that if you live here, he will send someone to pay the rent until you leave."

The shopkeeper spoke softly, fearing that a louder voice would scare away the God of Wealth. The young man had already paid a year's room for her.

"Excuse me, shopkeeper, what is the name of that young man?" asked Anaj.

"That young man did not leave his name, but I think he must be a very distinguished man." The shopkeeper couldn't hide the smile on his face.

"Girl, if you have any requests, just call the waiter."

"Thank you, owner. Could you please ask the waiter to bring some food over?" Anaj nodded.

The shopkeeper nodded repeatedly, and when he turned and walked out, he closed the door for Anaj.

Anaj sat down at the table and curiously opened the bundle.

In the bundle were two silk gowns, two brocade scarves, two linen smocks, and even a pair of leather shoes.

Anaj couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth slightly. The young man who saved her was thoughtful and considerate. This was reminding her that in troubled times, if she didn't want to cause too much trouble, it was better for her to dress up as a man.

In the bundle, there was also a letter of recommendation from Bailu Academy. It seemed that the young master had pointed out a way out for her.

Anaji remembered that one afternoon after she had been in the academy for more than half a year, the young man sent a lot of books to Bailu Academy.

Anaj recognized him at a glance, but he was just like the day they met for the third time in the East Palace. He just nodded slightly but did not turn around.

Anaji thought, maybe this young man had saved so many people that he had long forgotten the woman he saved on the day the city was broken.

Nodding is just politeness...

But Anaji never expected that the person who saved her was the Crown Prince of Daxia!

"Alas..." Anaji sighed. Now that he and she had national hatred and family feuds, there was an insurmountable gap between them.

Being trapped in Yongfu Palace for the past two days, Anaj also learned from the serving palace maids that the prince already had a beloved wife and a concubine whom the emperor had arranged to marry.

"Anaji, although we are not from the same family, we are both female students," Shen Yuyao put down the teacup in her hand as she watched Anaji fall into deep thought, "and we are both members of the royal family, can we really stay out of this?"

"Whether it's national hatred or family hatred, are the lives of 100,000 women and children in the capital more important?" Shen Yuyao slowly stood up and walked to Anajji's side. "I know you are kind by nature. The Zhang Ying you killed was also a man who deserved to die."

Anaji looked up into Shen Yuyao's eyes. She didn't expect that Shen Yuyao had even checked Zhang Ying himself.

"Yes, he violated the innocence of a decent girl on the way to the exam, so I killed him!" Anaj nodded repeatedly with a sharp look in her eyes. She hated the kind of man who destroyed people's innocence!

"So, I guess you won't want to let those 100,000 women and children be buried with you." Shen Yuyao took Anaj's hand and said, "Besides, the Crown Prince's wife Chang is my sister in the boudoir. She is truly gentle and virtuous, and treats people very well."

"And..." The light in Shen Yuyao's eyes dimmed.

"how?"

Anaj was a little confused as to why Princess Ning looked so worried at this moment.

"Anaji." Shen Yuyao called out softly, then let go of Anajji's hand, took two steps back, and faced Anajji again. She stood solemnly, folded her hands in front of her waist, with her right hand on top, and bowed deeply to her.

Anaj stood up hurriedly, "Why is the princess doing me such a great honor?"

"The day before yesterday, the Crown Princess had a difficult delivery. I checked her pulse," Shen Yuyao said with a sad face, "She is already at the end of her life..."

Anaj knew that the day when the Crown Princess had a difficult delivery was the day when she and Shen Yuyao had a duel at the gate of the East Palace.

"I heard from the palace maids that the Crown Princess is recuperating in the East Palace. I haven't heard of her being seriously ill."

Anaj was full of doubts.

She didn't know why Shen Yuyao was so sure that the Crown Princess was about to die?

Moreover, if the Crown Princess was really seriously ill, the Crown Prince would probably be filled with resentment towards her at this time. How could he ask the Emperor to grant them a marriage?

Shen Yuyao saw the doubt in Anajji's heart, "I said I would not lie to you, Crown Princess, I will pass away within seven days."

"But her disaster this time was not caused by illness, but by murder!"

Shen Yuyao knew that she had to tell Anajji directly that there were undercurrents in the East Palace. If Anajji was unaware of this, she would just be a stumbling block that that person could easily kick away.

"Now, although I know who the perpetrator is, I have no real evidence, so I can't do anything to her."

Shen Yuyao's face was solemn and her eyes were sad. "But the child has done nothing wrong. I pray that you can marry into the East Palace and take care of him on behalf of the Crown Princess."

Only then did Anaj truly understand Shen Yuyao and why she wanted her to marry into the Eastern Palace.

And she must marry the Crown Prince of the Eastern Palace!

Yu Gong, those 100,000 Yuan women and children were left behind in Daxia by her father, and became pariahs. As their princess, Anaj had the responsibility to make sure they were treated well because she married into the Daxia royal family.

Personally, the father of Crown Princess Chang had feelings for Anajji's father, and the Crown Prince had saved Anajji's life. Besides, the Crown Prince was the person she loved.

How can Anajji not marry?
