She laughed wildly and said, "Brother, what are you looking at? What can I do to your princess? I just took her to the Imperial Garden to look at the snow plums. I didn't do anything. Can you stop being so cautious?"

Then he turned around and left!

Xiao Yuchen didn't believe her. He quickly looked Jiang Tangxi up and down, and asked nervously, "Yiyi, she didn't do anything to you, did she? Are you hurt anywhere?"

Jiang Tangxi shook her head and said, "No, we really just strolled around the Imperial Garden."

Only then did Xiao Yuchen breathe a sigh of relief.

He pulled Jiang Tangxi over and whispered in her ear, "Don't be alone with her when I'm not around anymore. Sister... who knows what she might do."

Jiang Tangxi quickly nodded in agreement.

At this moment, Xiao Yuchen suddenly said: "The emperor wants to see you."

Jiang Tangxi asked in confusion: "What? What does he want from me?"

Xiao Yuchen shrugged and said, "I don't know either. We'll find out once we get in."

After saying that, he supported Jiang Tangxi and walked into the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

Jiang Tangxi walked into the Palace of Tranquil Longevity and, according to the rules, bowed to the emperor lying on the bed.

The emperor opened his eyes dazedly at this moment. When he saw Jiang Tangxi, he was immediately like seeing a ghost. He struggled and pointed at her, muttering non-stop: "Ghost demon! Ghost demon!"

Jiang Tangxi and Xiao Yuchen were both confused by the emperor's sudden reaction, and they looked at each other.

Jiang Tangxi was thinking: What the hell is this ghost monster?

Jiang Tangxi quickly explained, "Your Majesty, I am Princess Tangxi. I wonder what is the important matter that Your Majesty has summoned me for?"

The emperor seemed to come back to his senses, but his eyes were still fixed on Jiang Tangxi's face, as if he wanted to see another person through her face.

After a while, the emperor began to ask about Jiang Tangxi's health: "You are pregnant with Yuchen's child now, you must take good care of yourself and give birth to a legitimate son for Yuchen."

Jiang Tangxi muttered to herself: I don’t care whether it’s a boy or a girl, and Xiao Yuchen doesn’t care either.

After hearing what the emperor said, Xiao Yuchen couldn't help but said directly: "Humph, father, whether it's a boy or a girl, I like them both, so don't worry about it."

The emperor rolled his eyes at Xiao Yuchen and said unhappily, "You little brat, you only know how to talk back to me. I'm telling you, you have to behave yourself now!! Don't cause any trouble for me."

Then, the emperor talked about some irrelevant things. Jiang Tangxi was confused and had no idea what the emperor wanted to say.

After a few people chatted for a while, the emperor waved his hand and said, "I am tired, you all can leave."

Jiang Tangxi and Xiao Yuchen then hurriedly left the Palace of Tranquil Longevity.

Xiao Yuchen and Jiang Tangxi returned to the palace from the palace in the carriage. Jiang Tangxi's handsome eyebrows were tightly knitted, and he asked Xiao Yuchen with a puzzled look: "Xiao Xiaoyu, what exactly is the ghost demon that the emperor just called? Tell me quickly."

Xiao Yuchen gently put his arm around Jiang Tangxi's shoulders and said slowly, "Yiyi, this Youyao is a powerful character in the legend of Dongli. It is said that she is a demon god in the legend. Since childhood, the emperor liked to burn incense to the portrait of Her Majesty Youyao enshrined in the palace, and chanted something, saying that this would allow Youyao to protect the people of Dongli.

"She was the most beloved daughter of the Nether King, and was later named Princess Youyao by him. Later, the Nether King fought a great battle with those guys in the God Realm, and ended up dying. The Nether King had no choice but to pass his position to his youngest daughter, Youyao. In the end, Youyao was really capable, and was named the Lord of All Monsters by the people in the Monster Realm, which is the legendary Demon God. But for some reason, she also died later! It is said that Youyao's demon soul is still circulating in this world, and the Monster Realm has been looking for a way to revive the Demon God. But these are all legends!"

Jiang Tangxi nodded, not quite understanding, and muttered, "It's just a myth. In my hometown, there are many myths and legends circulating among the people. But I don't understand why the emperor would stare at me and call me a ghost monster?"

Xiao Yuchen touched Jiang Tangxi's head and comforted her, "Don't think too much. I guess the emperor's mind is a little confused now. Let's not care too much about a dying person. We can't understand what's in his mind."

Jiang Tangxi thought about it and didn't ask any more questions.

And so, a month passed quietly.

Hey, the emperor is still alive and well.

Jiang Tangxi was also invited to the palace to take the emperor's pulse.

After she came back, she told Xiao Yuchen that the emperor was only being kept alive by medicine and was definitely beyond saving.

But there is no way. The situation in Dongli is unstable now and the emperor cannot die yet.

The Prince Yu's Mansion seemed exceptionally quiet during this period of time, and the situation in the entire capital was so quiet that it made people feel uneasy.

That day, Jiang Tangxi and Xiao Yuchen were happily eating, when suddenly a servant came running over and said loudly, "My Lord, Princess, Prime Minister Jiang is here, and he said he wants to see you."

When Xiao Yuchen heard this, his face suddenly darkened, "Humph, who the hell is he, coming to disturb us while we're having dinner at this time."

Jiang Tangxi patted Xiao Yuchen's hand and said, "Don't be angry, maybe he has something urgent to do."

Xiao Yuchen glared at the servant fiercely and shouted, "Tell him to wait obediently in the hall. I am having dinner with the princess now. I will go to see him after dinner."

The servant was frightened by Xiao Yuchen's momentum and quickly responded, "Yes, Your Majesty, I will pass the message on right away."

After saying that, he ran away in a hurry.

Xiao Yuchen picked up a piece of meat and put it in Jiang Tangxi's bowl, and said gently: "Yiyi, don't worry about him, let's eat well first."

Jiang Tangxi smiled and nodded, continuing to enjoy the meal with Xiao Yuchen.

Jiang Tangxi and Xiao Yuchen walked slowly to the main hall, only to see Prime Minister Jiang walking back and forth anxiously like a headless fly.

Upon seeing Jiang Tangxi, Prime Minister Jiang immediately rushed to her and eagerly explained his purpose: "Tangxi, your second sister Jiayun has been seriously ill since the last incident. Her wedding date with Xiao Yuxi is coming soon, but her illness has not yet healed. You should go back to the mansion to see her."

As he said this, he wanted to reach out and grab Jiang Tangxi's hand, but Jiang Tangxi was quick and dodged his hand without leaving a trace.

Jiang Tangxi stared at Prime Minister Jiang calmly, his eyes were as cold as ice, without the slightest emotion.

She said slowly, "Father, I am a pregnant woman now and I still need someone to take care of me. What can I do?"
