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

"I heard it was the Hai family's idea." Songyan said.

The two looked at each other in confusion again.

"The imperial decree for the eldest princess's canonization and marriage was issued before the national mourning period. Even if it was a day late, according to the ancestral system, the princess-to-be-married must move out of the palace and live in the princess's mansion. So Your Majesty has no choice." Songyan explained.

"I really want to blow up the Hai family!" An Huanyan gritted her teeth. "No, why are they so anxious? They haven't even married yet!"

"That's almost it..." Song Yan interrupted, and An Huanyan threw a pear over unhappily.

Songyan immediately caught it and shut up.

"So that your fiancé can get the job legitimately." Jiang Xingkuo was counting money, but his casual words made An Huanyan blush.

She didn't know whether she was shy or annoyed by Jiang Xingkuo's teasing of her.

Jiang Xingkuo turned around with another wicked smile and said:

"Songyan, you are well-informed. You must have been to the Imperial Study a lot. Have you sent out the handkerchief you have been embroidering for a month?"

"Princess! Please take care of Miss Jiang!" Songyan blushed with shame and couldn't help covering her face.

"Alas, how can I control her? She is the big boss now." An Huanyan waved her hands helplessly.

Yes, Jiang Xingkuo’s shop, Runxuetang, opened for business quietly.

Just because it was a period of national mourning and no grand celebrations were allowed, the door was opened without even setting off firecrackers.

At first everyone thought it was just an ordinary teahouse, until Wei Chuchu showed up and saw a series of celebrity calligraphy and paintings and decorations in the store, people realized that this store was not simple.

After sitting down and looking at the menu, I found that the combination of bubble milk tea and cream cake was something I had never seen or heard of before.

Even if the celebrity calligraphy and paintings in the store are fake, Wei Chuchu is always the real thing.

Everyone ate the food with a strange taste with half belief and half doubt, and suddenly, Runxuetang became popular overnight.

Jiang Xingkuo asked for a special pardon for Yutai, and went out of the palace every day to train the masters in the store, and was very busy.

"No, no, no, do you know how much my store... No, do you know how much it cost to build this store? The purchase of the store cost a lot, and the renovation of the store also cost a lot. It took more than ten tests to build the oven for baking cakes before it reached a temperature similar to that of an oven..."

Jiang Xingkuo folded the banknotes and put them lovingly into the small box.

"It's still a long way to get my money back!" she said again, then held the cash box in her arms, looking intoxicated.

An Huanyan shook her head, and went out with Song Yan to direct the servants to pack up and move.

Neither of them had much objection to going to the princess's mansion.

After all, she has left the palace and is no longer bound by the imperial city. She can go wherever she wants and is very free. She only needs to manage the princess's mansion.

Within two days, someone from the princess's mansion came to say that everything had been arranged and we could move in at any time.

But at this critical moment, Jiang Xingkuo was summoned by the former prince and current emperor An Zhaoyan.

An Huanyan could only get on the carriage and go ahead.

Before she left the imperial city, news came that An Huanyan was going to move into the princess's mansion, and the mistress of the Hai family, Lady Hai, who was also An Huanyan's future mother-in-law, was going to visit in person.

An Huanyan never dreamed that she would have to face her mother-in-law before getting married.

"Can you refuse?"

"I'm afraid... it's no use..." Song Yan pinched her fingers and smiled bitterly. "I guess the old lady is almost at the princess's mansion."

An Huanyan looked up to the sky and howled, "Heaven wants to kill me..."

Tengxi tilted his head, not understanding why. "Princess, why are you so distressed? An ugly daughter-in-law has to meet her parents-in-law anyway..."

Suddenly realizing that she had said the wrong thing, she quickly covered her mouth.

But An Huanyan fell in the carriage, immersed in her troubles and unable to extricate herself, and didn't care at all.

"Oh, Tengxi, think about it, if you become a mother-in-law, would you like a silly daughter-in-law? Besides, Lady Hai is notoriously mean. If you meet such a princess, you will probably suffer!" Songyan looked at An Huanyan who was lying on the ground and shook his head.

"Who are you calling stupid?" An Huanyan jumped up and bumped into the carriage. "Ouch——"

Tengxi blinked and looked at Songyan rubbing her red and swollen forehead. She still looked unconvinced, and suddenly she understood Songyan's worries.

"It seems... that's also..."

"What is it!" An Huanyan grabbed their ears with one hand each, "If anyone from the Hai family dares to mess with me, I will make sure they pay!"

"You don't even dare to see the eldest master..." Songyan muttered softly.

But An Huanyan, who had sharp ears, heard it and slapped her thigh immediately: "He is a general guarding the border, with great martial arts skills. It would be as easy for him to crush me to death as it is for an ant!"

"You are a princess..." Song Yan said without fear of being scolded, and then An Huanyan's head exploded. "Ah——"

"Songyan, whose side are you on? Are you a spy sent by the other side? Tell me quickly!" An Huanyan grabbed Songyan with a poor grappling move.

Song Yan also cooperated and pretended to struggle to escape, then threw himself into Teng Xi's arms and shouted, "Teng Xi and I are in the same group! Teng Xi, save me! Quick!"

Tengxi was stunned, and his face instantly lost all color.

"What's wrong with you?" Seeing that she didn't respond, Songyan felt bored and got up to look at her.

"No... I'm fine." She forced a smile, "It's just that you bumped into me and it hurt."

"Oh oh..." Song Yan quickly rubbed her belly, "Are you okay? It's my fault..."

An Huanyan leaned against the wall of the carriage thoughtfully, and said intentionally or unintentionally: "Tengxi, I haven't asked you yet, are you willing to leave the palace with me?"

"The princess treats me so well, how can I bear to leave her?" Teng Xi nodded heavily without hesitation.

The three of them didn't say anything else. The carriage left the gate of the imperial city and turned a corner before arriving at the princess's mansion.

The three of them got off the carriage, looked up at the magnificent and gorgeous house, and couldn't help but sigh.

"It's so close to the imperial palace... His Majesty and Your Highness really have a deep brotherly love..." Before Songyan had finished flattering, an old lady got off a low-key and quaint carriage nearby.

The old nanny knelt down and bowed her head and asked, "Excuse me, are you the Princess Wuyang?"

An Huanyan took a deep breath and was about to speak, but was interrupted by Song Yan.

"Exactly. Whose maid are you from? How come you are so ignorant of etiquette? You didn't even perform proper formalities when you saw Her Royal Highness the Princess?"

She stared at Song Yan with wide eyes. When did she become so tough?

The maid was stunned by what she said, and the owner of the carriage behind her did not support her at all. She could only kneel down unwillingly and bow deeply.

"Well. Get up." An Huanyan nodded with satisfaction.

The maid quickly got up and walked to the side of the carriage. Suddenly a hand stretched out from inside and opened the curtain. A woman in plain clothes but cold and serious came out leisurely and stepped out of the carriage.

This woman is Hai Lao Taijun.

She was called the old lady, but she looked to be only in her forties.
