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

The emperor was so anxious that his face turned red. He cursed loudly, "I just saw that she was pregnant with the emperor's seed and wanted to make her my concubine, but you kept making excuses! Are you jealous?"

"Am I jealous? If I were jealous, I wouldn't let her enter the palace!" The queen was obviously very angry, and her makeup was a little smudged.

"Besides! The tradition of Jin Country has always been that a woman can be made a concubine only after she has safely given birth to a child. How can she violate the ancestral system when she hasn't given birth yet?!"

The emperor was so angry that his lips began to tremble: "I have already said it! Since Huanyan, there will be no more children! This is the best thing in the past ten years! Why can't we make an exception?!"

"Since you want to make an exception, then let's also remove the rules for the Prince Consort!" The Queen smiled coldly.

"What?! What are you planning?!"

"I'm planning on this? Huanyan is the flesh that fell from my belly. If you don't feel pain, I'll feel the pain myself!"

"What nonsense are you talking about?!" The emperor was obviously shocked.

"You know that the ancestral rule that the prince consort cannot serve as an official in the imperial court has discouraged many aspiring men from doing so. Does a princess deserve to marry a drunkard, uneducated, and dissolute young man?! Since we are going to make an exception, why not break this ancestral rule as well!"

The queen turned around and wiped her tears. She didn't want this man to see her weak side.

The emperor didn't notice it at all, he just said angrily: "How dare you take this opportunity to bargain with me?!"

After wiping her tears, the Queen turned around with a proud look on her face and said, "My Lord. It is fair. I agree to make her a concubine, and Your Majesty agrees to make Huanyan the eldest princess, grant her a fiefdom, and give her the right to serve the court. How come Yan Buwan is your beloved concubine, but Huanyan is not your beloved daughter?!"

The emperor threw his sleeves after hearing this and gnashed his teeth and said, "You are really crazy! How can this be compared?! You are really greedy! Look at your face! Compared to you, Wanwan is so considerate! She even advised me to marry her to the Khitan prince to relieve my worries, but you are so unreasonable!"

"Haha. It would be fine if you didn't mention the marriage! She obviously doesn't like me and Huanyan, and she wants Huanyan to marry to that bitter cold place, never to see each other again in her life! If it was her own daughter, do you think she would be willing to let her go? I'm afraid she would want to replace Zhaoyan! And she's trying to put herself in her shoes? She can just dream on! There is a god above us!"

Whenever the issue of marriage was mentioned, the queen became extremely angry.

"How can you say that about her? You are just a jealous woman! She is just trying to relieve my worries. Even though I feel sorry for her, I will never allow you to say that about her! She is pregnant with my child, how can you curse her so viciously?"

The emperor was obviously terminally ill, and he was defending Yan Buwan in every word and action.

The queen laughed instead of getting angry, "Everyone knows that her pregnancy is strange. There are three thousand beauties in the harem, but no one has been pregnant in more than ten years. But she is pregnant just a few months after entering the palace. I'm afraid she is cuckolded and still rushes to get close to the cold butt of the evil devil!"

"Snapped!"

The queen fell to the ground, holding her swollen face, and her crown shattered into pieces, turning into a pile of cold and gorgeous pearl hairpins.

In the rain, it was unclear whether the water flowing down An Huanyan's face was tears or rain.

She was about to rush in but was stopped by Jiang Xingkuo.

"Asshole! Can you tell me what I am?!" The emperor was so angry that his beard flew everywhere. "Someone come here!"

Seeing that no one came out, he shouted again: "Someone come! Where are they all?"

"...Your Majesty...Your Majesty..." Two guards came out from the corner timidly.

"The queen is insane. Let her go out in the rain to sober up!"

With this the emperor left in the rain with great disgust.

Jiang Xingkuo quickly pulled An Huanyan to hide.

The rain was getting heavier and heavier. The lightning illuminated everyone's faces in an instant, dim and blurry, and everyone had a different expression on their face.

The thunder that followed the lightning startled the two of them.

"It will be too late if we don't leave now!" Jiang Xingkuo reminded her. After all, they didn't know when the rain would stop.

An Huanyan turned her face away in pain and said, "Let's go."

The palace gate behind him opened, and the guards threw a crazy woman out of the room.

The woman sometimes laughed wildly in the rain, and sometimes howled to the sky.

"The Queen is really insane..." people inside whispered.

An Huanyan stopped, turned around and ran back.

"Huanyan!" Seeing the situation, Jiang Xingkuo could only grit his teeth and follow.

"Mother! Mother!" An Huanyan hugged the queen, and they hugged each other and burst into tears.

The queen held up her head and found a small bundle hanging on her body.

"You're leaving?" Her voice was relieved and sad.

An Huanyan looked up in astonishment, hoping that in the rain, she didn't see her panicked and evasive eyes.

"Let's go. I know, I know everything..." She reluctantly hugged An Huanyan in her arms.

"Mother, I...I..." An Huanyan tried her best to hold back her tears, but found that her voice was trembling.

"Go, she is waiting for you." The Queen touched her head, "I know, I know everything, you are not my Huanyan, my Huanyan is long gone... Let's go! Leave here, this cannibalistic palace..."

An Huanyan was pushed away by her and almost fell down, but fortunately Jiang Xingkuo held her.

The queen gave her an ugly smile. Jiang Xingkuo hesitated for a long time, but finally dragged An Huanyan, who was crying, away.

The queen knelt in the rain, watching their stumbling backs. She held on for a moment, and finally collapsed.

The two men ran to the foot of the Meridian Gate Tower and ran in all wet.

Just as they were about to climb up, the guards looked at them warily. "Who are you?"

Jiang Xingkuo cursed: "You are so blind that the princess can't see it! The princess couldn't sleep and went out for a night walk. It rained and she came in to hide from the rain. What's wrong?!"

"This..." The guard hesitated, "Why don't you just take shelter here, Princess? We really can't go up there..."

Jiang Xingkuo rolled his eyes. He couldn't delay any longer. If he missed the opportunity now, he wouldn't know when the next one would be.

I don’t know if they will still be alive next time.

Thinking of this, Jiang Xingkuo took out a gold medal from his arms and held it in front of the guard.

"This is... the token of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

Several guards quickly knelt down.

An Huanyan, who had been in a daze, finally came to her senses and asked blankly, "Where are you from?"

"I stole from your brother. Sometimes he gets really long-winded and I don't want to listen."

Jiang Xingkuo climbed up in two steps without looking back, followed closely by An Huanyan.

I don’t know if I will die instantly if struck by lightning.

Jiang Xingkuo looked at the distraught An Huanyan with a worried look on his face, and followed her gaze. The Qianqing Palace was brightly lit, with palace servants busy coming in and out, standing out in the palace in the rain.

"Something happened..." she murmured.
