As long as this seed is planted, as long as Yan Buwan continues to whisper in its ears and water it, then this seed will sprout and grow.

Although the banquet was plunged into an awkward atmosphere, Jiang Xingkuo still did not forget to eat secretly. He would hide his head behind Songyan and eat secretly, or stand still and quickly lift up his veil and stuff it into his mouth when no one was paying attention, as if he was very skilled at it.

Yan Buwan raised his eyebrows and hinted at the maid next to him. "Go, let everyone see Miss Jiang's true face."

The palace maid understood what he meant and walked down with a bowl of candied fruit.

"Princess, please try some freshly made fruit. This is the work of Mixianzhai...ah!"

The palace maid slipped, the plate and palm leaves in her hands fell, and she fell into Jiang Xingkuo's arms.

Yan Buwan smiled secretly.

The maid took the opportunity to raise her hand and pull it off. Why can't she pull it off?

The maid was startled and looked up.

Jiang Xingkuo smiled coldly, "Do you think the sailor's knot I tied myself was for nothing?"

The palace maid became anxious because Yan Zhaoyi was still watching from above. If she didn't complete the task, she would die anyway, so she might as well give it a try.

Thinking of this, she reached out to lift the veil again, but Jiang Xingkuo grabbed her wrist fiercely and pushed her hard, and the palace maid fell forward again.

Jiang Xingkuo glanced at Song Yan, who immediately started cursing, "What did you do? You weren't careful at all. What if you hurt the princess?"

Everyone looked over.

Yan Buwan looked at the palace maid who fell to the ground in panic with displeasure, "She is more likely to cause trouble than to help!" she complained in her heart, but did not help.

The queen drank a glass of wine, touched the corner of her lips, and said lightly: "It is impolite in front of the palace, drag him out."

The maid couldn't hold back any longer and cried bitterly, "Your Majesty, please spare me, Your Majesty, please spare me..."

But he was soon dragged away by two guards and fell silent.

An Huanyan was confused, "What happened..."

Yan Buwan looked at Jiang Xingkuo hatefully, but Jiang Xingkuo just raised his head and raised his middle finger coolly.

Yan Buwan turned her head. She didn't understand what this meant, but it was definitely not a good thing. She could only put on a smile and say she was tired to the emperor. The emperor then went back to the palace with her out of pity.

So the queen announced the end of the banquet and everyone went back home to their mothers.

Jiang Xingkuo breathed a sigh of relief. This annoying palace rule made her stand for the entire night.

In the crowd, the prince was like a shining star. No matter where or when, he could always be found at a glance.

An Huanyan and Jiang Xingkuo went up to say goodbye, but An Huanyan seemed very depressed and didn't want to say much.

"You... try to enlighten her more. I will not let this happen. Tell her not to worry too much." The prince looked at An Huanyan lovingly and said to her.

"Of course, of course." Jiang Xingkuo nodded vigorously.

When talking to a handsome guy, you have to be positive.

"Your face..." The prince hesitated.

"Ah...it's okay now, but I need some time to adapt..." Jiang Xingkuo scratched his head.

"That's good. I hope the Tianshan Snow Lotus was not wasted." The prince's sword-like brows and star-like eyes softened.

"Yes, yes, yes..." Jiang Xingkuo thought for a moment, "Your Highness, why don't you see the Second Prince?"

Jiang Xingkuo searched for him all night but didn't see him.

The prince's smile froze on his face, and he seemed very surprised, but he still replied: "My second brother doesn't like this kind of occasion and never comes. If you hadn't been there for his birthday last time, he would have left early."

"Uh..." Even someone as thick-skinned as Jiang Xingkuo felt embarrassed at this moment.

She always felt something was odd, but she couldn't put her finger on it.

After returning to the palace, An Huanyan suddenly closed the door, pulled Jiang Xingkuo to sit beside the bed, and said seriously: "Xingxing, let's go back. We can't stay here. Go back immediately!"

"Ah!" Jiang Xingkuo's jaw dropped to the ground.

"Go back, let's go back to school. We don't belong here. It's terrible. I'm not even an adult yet and I'm going to get married? And even go to the Khitan Kingdom?!" An Huanyan burst into tears and held her head.

"Ayan, don't be anxious," Jiang Xingkuo hugged her with mixed feelings, "Calm down first and listen to me, okay?"

An Huanyan let go of her hand and looked at her with tears in her eyes.

Jiang Xingkuo felt distressed when seeing this.

"Listen to me first. First, we can go back, but we have to choose a suitable time. You forgot that the condition for going back must be a rainy day with thunder. It happens to be summer now, so it won't be difficult to wait for a rainy day. Then we can escape together, but you have to be mentally prepared to abandon everything here."

"Yeah, I know..." An Huanyan wiped away her tears.

"Once we go back, we will lose our current life of having everything we want, and we will have no family and no money. Are you sure you can do this? After all, it's easy to go from frugality to luxury, but it's hard to go from luxury to frugality."

Jiang Xingkuo looked solemn.

An Huanyan nodded with difficulty: "I understand, Father, Mother, and Brother Crown Prince, they are just borrowed by me, they don't really belong to me..."

"Okay. Then we will start preparing right away. Also, if it doesn't work, don't worry, okay? You have to trust the queen, the prince, and me. We will all help you find a solution. Even if they are unreliable, you should at least trust me!"

Jiang Xingkuo patted his chest, making An Huanyan burst into laughter.

"Okay. Xingxing, it's great to have you."

Jiang Xingkuo sighed, "It's all fate..."

Just do it.

"Your Highness, the princess has summoned the Imperial Observatory." Wu Ye suddenly appeared.

The book was closed, and the prince's well-defined face raised slightly, "Oh? What did you do?"

"It is said that he consulted the celestial phenomena."

"Celestial phenomena?" The prince's eyes were deep, as if they could penetrate anyone's heart.

"Yes, she asked questions like when it would rain and when it would thunder. But the princess didn't seem very satisfied."

"I understand." The prince nodded, and Wu Ye disappeared again.

The prince had just fallen into deep thought for a while when Wu Ye appeared again.

"What's the matter again?" The prince pinched his prominent nose bridge and looked like he had a headache.

"Your Highness, the princess has made an appointment with Divine Doctor Ji to meet with her at Piyun Palace."

The prince's hand froze for a long time before he let go.

"Why don't you come to my palace to see me? Why do you have to go to Piyun Palace?"

"Yes."

"Then the old man is willing too? Doesn't he want to move?" The prince closed his eyes.

"Divine Doctor Ji has already gone to Piyun Palace and is not displeased."

The prince opened his eyes and suddenly smiled, "Perhaps he and these two girls are destined to be together." Finally, he said with interest, "Wait for Divine Doctor Ji to come back and tell me, and then we will go and pay them a visit."

"Yes."

Inside the Piyun Palace, two people were surrounding Divine Doctor Ji and showing their courtesy. One was massaging his shoulders, while the other was beating his legs, making Divine Doctor Ji laugh out loud, looking very happy.
