"This is the order of the Concubine Chen. I dare not disobey. The Concubine Xian and the ladies of the other palaces please go back."

It was not appropriate for Concubine Xian to be angry with the eunuch in the palace, so she glared at Cheng Qian's plaque and left in two steps.

After Concubine Xian left, the other concubines didn't want to continue living in Chengqian Palace, so they simply returned to the palace.

In Chengqian Palace, old friends meet.

Concubine De sat down at the main seat and said, "You have been on the run for so many years, it's time for you to control your temper."

Hu Cuiwei had just walked out of the bedroom, and she did not show any joy of being promoted. "You know I don't like the rules and regulations in the palace."

Concubine De looked at her and took a sip of tea. "In fact, it's him as a person that you don't love."

Hu Cuiwei was stunned for some reason, as if what she had said hit the nail on the head. She couldn't come back to her senses for a long time, as if she had returned to the time when she and her childhood sweetheart climbed the mountains and went down the deep sea together.

It was really good back then, as free as the wind and as unrestrained as a wild horse.

Unfortunately, fate always plays tricks on people. After meeting Xuanyuan Li by chance, life went astray.

She ran away, he chased her, but she couldn't fly.

To this day, she still cannot escape from his clutches, and has also lost her childhood sweetheart's life in vain.

"At your age, don't think about love all the time. There are more important things for you to do right now." Concubine De saw through her, put down her teacup, and said, "Chuan'er should get married. You can look around and see who is suitable."

However, Hu Cuiwei changed her usual practice and decided to "build a career first and then start a family."

"Oh?" Concubine De said with interest, "Except for the throne, there is nothing else to fight for."

"Sister, do you want Qing'er to compete with Chuan'er?"

Concubine De lowered her eyes and said, "Qing'er has been a spoiled child since he was young. He is not my son. It is not important to me whether he can be the king or not. However, Chuan'er is different. He has swift and decisive means, but also a strong character and tender feelings. He is knowledgeable, polite, humble and simple. The throne of the king should fall into his hands to be worthy of the people of the world."

Hu Cui was slightly stunned, but soon came back to her senses, "You are very optimistic about Chuan'er."

"I've watched children grow up, so how can I not be optimistic about them? But your daughter really impressed me."

Speaking of Hu Luanfei, Hu Cuiwei showed a hint of pride, but soon her face was filled with grief, guilt and regret. "Speaking of which, Luanfei's ability is better than Chuan'er's."

"How about you try to push Luan Fei to the throne?"

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Hu Cuiwei thought, "That old witch has always been against me. She has been chasing me for more than 20 years. How can I let Luan Fei go to the palace and suffer this?"

Concubine De paused her fingertips on the teacup, hesitated for a moment, and stared at her, "When you enter the palace, it's like entering the empress dowager's temple. You have to be careful with the people who serve you in Chengqian Palace and the meals sent in by the imperial kitchen, to prevent her from having the opportunity to attack."

"With Xuanyuan Li here, that old witch can't do anything to me for the time being."

"Do you hate him?"

Hu Cuiwei said nothing and just drank her tea silently.

Speaking of hatred, how could she not hate?

He kept saying that he loved her, but he hurt her deeply countless times.

He knew that she had someone she loved, but he was so cruel as to break them up.

He also knew that the person she loved was not her, so he looked for an opportunity to eliminate the only thought in her heart.

She hated him so much that she wanted to tear him into pieces.

"Auntie!"

A distant call pulled her out of her gloomy mood.

Xuanyuan Yuchuan walked in from outside and saw Concubine De drinking tea leisurely in the room. After bowing, he ran to Hu Cuiwei.

"What makes you so happy?" She felt guilty towards her son. Hu Cuiwei stood up and wiped his sweat while admonishing him, "There are many spies in the palace. Don't let others laugh at you."

Xuanyuan Yuchuan only reveals his childish nature around people who are close to him. In the past, when he was with the Queen, he was as sinister as a Shura from hell, which made people feel uneasy.

"Sister Luan gave birth to a big fat boy."

"When did this happen?"

"Just a few days ago." Xuanyuan Yuchuan suddenly realized that Hu Luanfei had a premature birth because he had tipped off the person. He quickly stopped smiling and became worried.

"Xiao Lanzi said that on the day Luanmei gave birth, Qi Siliao was with her. When the midwife handed the baby to him, he somehow jumped out of the window and ran away..."

Concubine De said softly: "Maybe he was frightened."

Xuanyuan Yuchuan said coldly: "He is a warrior king who bravely kills enemies on the battlefield. How can he be scared into shrinking like a turtle by a newborn child?"

"There's a huge difference between ending a life and welcoming a life. Maybe there was a moment when he thought he was too sinful to embrace a pure white baby. Or maybe he was traumatized and couldn't face the situation."

"You shouldn't, why would the Iron-Blooded War King be afraid?"

"No matter how powerful a hero is, he was born and raised by his mother. You just haven't met a woman you love to the core. If you had met one, you would have been more exaggerated than the War King when you gave birth. But there are exceptions. For example, how could a man born in the royal family of Beiqiu go in to accompany the birth of a child?"

As Concubine De spoke, her eyes were filled with disappointment.

Hu Cuiwei was the same. Ever since she heard that Hu Luanfei had given birth to a big fat boy, she has been busy taking care of everything.

Concubine De suddenly threw a basin of cold water on her, "You can't get out, so stop working."

"Chuan'er, please make another trip to help your mother visit Luanfei." The things Hu Cuiwei packed were all gold and silver jewelry, as well as a few sets of new baby clothes.

Concubine De smiled lightly, "So you haven't forgotten that you have a daughter."

Hu Cuiwei said bitterly, "How can I forget? I have been separated from her for many years. I have thought of countless endings, and I am afraid that she will fall into the place of fireworks and be destroyed..."

The more she thought about it, the more she hated Xuanyuan Li and his mother. Hu Cuiwei's eyes suddenly changed, and she showed murderous intent: "I won't give up."

The gold and silver jewelry were stuffed heavily into Xuanyuan Yuchuan's arms, "Go, take care of Luanfei for me."

Before Xuanyuan Yuchuan could say something, the eunuch from Cining came over and asked for a meeting.

Hu Cuiwei said coldly, "What is coming has finally come."

She looked at Xuanyuan Yuchuan with extraordinary kindness, "I won't let others bully us again."

As soon as he finished speaking, the eunuch appeared in front of them. After he saluted the masters, he said in a shrill voice: "The Empress Dowager has ordered that the Empress Chen and the Empress Dowager should gather in the Cining Palace."

Hu Cuiwei pretended to be virtuous and said, "Please go back and tell the Empress Dowager that I will be here later."

After the eunuch left, Xuanyuan Yuchuan was very anxious, "Mother, you can't go..."

"My child, I used to be a coward, always escaping. But now it's different. For my own sake and yours, I can't be a coward anymore. By the way, please give this letter to my son-in-law."

"Mother..." The words that Xuanyuan Yuchuan was about to say were blocked in his throat.

Hu Cuiwei said, "Don't worry, go ahead."

Xuanyuan Yuchuan didn't know why he was so sad, and his eyes gradually became red.

Seeing him like this, Hu Cuiwei said directly: "Only by removing all obstacles can our family be reunited. Chuan'er, don't let others miss your things and your family."
