I'm in trouble again! My best friend, the princess in the group, please save me!

Yan Buwan lay on the bed reluctantly, as if his temperature was still warm, making her addicted and unable to extricate herself.

She kept her eyes open until dawn before letting the palace maids clean up.

"Your Majesty, this is the breakfast sent by His Majesty." The palace maids lined up holding food boxes.

She raised her eyebrows and said, "I have a headache. Please invite His Majesty to have dinner with us tonight."

"Oh, and this, send someone to Piyun Palace." She threw down a small box. "And one more! Find out what they are going to use it for?"

In Piyun Palace, Jiang Xingkuo and An Huanyan stared at the small box but did not dare to take any action.

"Could there be a bomb inside?" An Huanyan scratched his chin.

"Idiot!" Jiang Xingkuo patted her head, "There is no such thing in this era!"

"Then what do you think it is?" An Huanyan curled her lips.

"Just open it and you'll know!" Jiang Xingkuo pretended to be calm.

"This is for you! I dare not touch it!" An Huanyan pretended to be uninterested and blew away the slightly hot tea.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived!" A steady and clear voice came from outside the palace.

The two of them hurried out to greet them.

After a symbolic salute, An Huanyan sat down opposite the prince.

"This, why not use it?" The prince knocked on the small box on the table.

"Brother, do you know what this is?" An Huanyan turned her head curiously.

"It's what you want." The prince pushed the box in front of Jiang Xingkuo.

"Ah?" Jiang Xingkuo took the box hesitantly and opened it under his expectant gaze.

"This is... Tianshan Snow Lotus!!"

“Tianshan Snow Lotus!” An Huanyan also shouted in unison, “Xingxing! You have hope!”

"Is this true?" Jiang Xingkuo picked up the dried snow lotus with great interest.

The prince nodded.

"Wait! Xingxing, don't you find it weird? Why would she suddenly give it to us? Is she trying to harm you?!"

Jiang Xingkuo suddenly felt a chill on his back and put down Xuelian.

The prince couldn't help laughing, "Feel free to use it, my brother will guarantee it."

"No! It was my royal brother who asked her? She was actually willing to give it to you?!" An Huanyan looked at him suspiciously.

Jiang Xingkuo also raised his head, which made him feel uneasy.

"No need for me to take it." The prince said as he was about to take the small box.

"Hey hey hey! Yes, yes, yes!" Jiang Xingkuo grinned, took the small box back, and ran to the back again, "Songyan! Help me!"

An Huanyan narrowed her eyes, "Brother, that's not right, when did you treat our Xingxing so well?"

The prince paused while drinking tea and lowered his eyelids to hide his evasive look. "Your dear friend, my brother treats her well, which is good for you."

"Stop it!" An Huanyan snatched his tea away, "Tell the truth, is your Royal Brother interested in our Xing Xing?!"

...This sister, who usually looks careless and silly, is actually very smart when it comes to things like this.

He took the teacup from her hand seriously, took a sip, and then said slowly: "She has done a great service to this king, and she should be rewarded."

"Achieve merit?" An Huanyan was confused.

"Oh, I almost forgot. In two days, there will be a Qiqiao Festival. My mother will hold a banquet in the palace. All the court ladies above the fifth rank and the children of aristocratic families will come to the palace to pay tribute. You should make preparations early so that you can see each other more often." The prince did not want to answer and could only change the subject.

"Qiqiao Festival? Qixi Festival?" An Huanyan was excited when she heard it, "What do you mean by seeing each other? Does it mean that I can also choose a concubine?"

"..." The prince looked worried. How come his sister was becoming more and more unruly?

"Will there be a lot of handsome guys then?" An Huanyan began to drool.

"Handsome guy? There are many men with good character and appearance, just pick your choice." The prince rubbed his hands helplessly.

"That's a lot! Hehehe!" An Huanyan smiled stupidly, "Then pick one for our Xingxing too."

"No." The prince's expression suddenly changed.

An Huanyan looked up at him.

"..." The prince swallowed his saliva and said guiltily: "Mother has already exhausted all her energy in preparing for your marriage this time, so you should not make things more complicated. This time, it must be settled!"

"I know..." An Huanyan leaned back in her chair and kept yelling, "It's boring! It's boring!"

The prince shook his head, stayed for a while and then left.

The lights were just coming on and the emperor was arriving late. Yan Buwan, who had an appointment with the emperor, was waiting anxiously.

All the people she sent to Piyun Palace to investigate were sent back. Not a single person could find out the truth.

No matter how angry he was, the emperor still had to seduce her.

The emperor had been busy meeting foreign envoys recently and had hardly come here. She could only take the initiative.

Only if she gets things done today will the extent of her pregnancy not be exposed.

Soon, she changed into a light gauze dress and danced gracefully beside the emperor.

The emperor grabbed her, but she broke free and slipped to the other side, continuing to twist her waist and shake her snow-white breasts.

The emperor had never seen such a bold woman. The women in the harem were all so boring and restrained. Soon he could no longer control himself. He didn't even eat dinner and just picked her up and threw her onto the bed.

On the other side of Piyun Palace, Songyan applied a facial mask to Jiang Xingkuo and then told them about the strange things that happened today.

In the afternoon, Songyan was busy helping Jiang Xingkuo process the Tianshan Snow Lotus, and at that time she happened to see a palace maid she didn't know was beating around.

She started by scolding, "Have you finished your work in the palace? Why are you so anxious to visit and chat? Are you unhappy in your own palace and want to change your master? Tell me, and I will ask the princess to bring you over! The queen is not easy to get along with, but our princess is!"

The frightened palace maid waved her hands repeatedly and ran back to the palace.

A palace maid caught up with Yutai and started to ask: "Do they want this Tianshan Snow Lotus to eat? Or for something else? It's so precious, they can't just use it casually, right?"

"Eat? There are ten ways to eat Tianshan Snow Lotus. One is to boil beef and pork bones until they turn white, then add them to the pot together with the thousand-year-old ginseng. Each time, just one petal is enough to make it fragrant and delicious. The second way is to take the flower stem and simmer it over a low fire until it turns into..."

The palace maid's ears were callused from listening so much that when she ran away, Yutai was still talking nonstop, and she didn't notice at all that there was no one around her.

Tengxi said: "I don't know. I can only comb my hair. I don't know. I can only put on makeup. I really don't understand..."

It would have been fine if she didn't know anything about the question, but Tengxi stared at the other person blankly while answering, calling it "sincerity" until the other person got scared and ran away. Then she said curiously, "Am I not sincere enough..."

An Huanyan and Jiang Xingkuo looked at each other and then burst into laughter.

Song Yan said earnestly: "Princess, you can still laugh. Our palace is leaking like a sieve!"
