It's good to exchange marriages. My sister eats coarse food while I wear gold and silver.

"Your Highness, may your Highness live forever."

Princess Canglang had been kneeling outside for a long time. When she entered the room to pay her respects to the Queen Mother, her body was swaying, but she did not dare to slack off at all. She gritted her teeth and leaned over the ground.

"Get up and talk."

"Thank you, Queen Mother."

Princess Canglang staggered to her feet, her face beneath the veil looking somewhat timid.

"What do you want to confess to me?"

For some reason, the Queen Mother just couldn't like Princess Canglang.

Princess Canglang took a deep breath, then reached out and took off her veil.

When her appearance appeared in front of the Queen Mother, her pupils shrank and she stood up suddenly: "You, you are... Jiang Xinhui? Why is it you?"

"Queen Mother."

Jiang Xinhui knelt down in front of the Queen Mother, tears welling up in her eyes: "If it weren't for my brother forcing me to marry the Marquis of Wanning, I would..."

"Is this a reason?" The Queen Mother interrupted Jiang Xinhui angrily, "Back then, I had no right to interfere with what happened between you two. Now you have suddenly come back to life and become Ao Cang's princess. If this gets out, do you know how much of an impact it will have on the royal family?"

"Mother, please don't be so angry. There is actually something more important."

The Queen Mother was startled, and turned to look at Jinghe who looked calm: "You, you knew it a long time ago?"

"Bu Wei told me. I didn't believe it at first, but after investigating it, I finally believed it." Princess Jinghe sighed, "Mother, when Jiang Xinhui married Wan Ninghou, she was already pregnant."

"W-what did you say?"

This fact shocked the Queen Mother even more than knowing that Jiang Xinhui was still alive: "You, you mean... is..."

"Yes, Queen Mother, Lu Sui is the prince's child."

The Queen Mother's eyes widened instantly, her lips trembled a few times, and she stepped back repeatedly.

"Queen Mother."

"Mother."

Yuan Buwei and Princess Jinghe immediately stepped forward to support the Queen Mother.

"Jiang Xinhui, you...you..." The Queen Mother was so angry that she turned around, grabbed the teacup on the table and smashed it hard at Jiang Xinhui's feet. "You are so presumptuous. Your one thought has ruined Lu Sui's first half of his life."

Jiang Xinhui didn't dare to move at all. She lowered her head and cried silently: "It's my fault. I will bear all the responsibility."

"How can you bear the responsibility? You are the deceased wife of the Wanning Marquis, but now you have become Ao Cang's wife. Do you know that the emperor has always disliked Ao Cang? If he knew that Lu Sui was his biological son, both father and son would be in danger." The queen mother was so angry that her face turned pale. "Jiang Xinhui, why are you doing this? Why?"

The Queen Mother questioned Jiang Xinhui repeatedly, making her feel ashamed.

"I know that I will be in danger from the prince and Sui'er, so I stand out. If..." As if she had made up her mind, Jiang Xinhui looked up at the queen mother with a determination to die. "If my death can bring them safety, I am willing."

"Jiang Xinhui, do you think they will be safe if you die?" Princess Jinghe was angry. "The biggest problem right now is Lu Sui's background. The emperor originally thought that he was more powerful than the emperor. If he knew that Lu Sui was the son of someone he hated, and that they both had military power, think about it. If they joined forces and called on all the civil and military officials, do you think the emperor would still be able to sleep well?"

Jiang Xinhui was stunned by what Princess Jinghe said: "I...I..."

"Lu Sui's background must not be exposed."

The Queen Mother had calmed down: "The midwife who delivered you back then, is she still alive now?"

"When I left, Marquis Wanning had already taken care of everything, making sure that no news leaked out."

"I can trust Wanning Hou, but..." The Queen Mother frowned, "Does Ao Cang know about this?"

"I confessed to him not long ago."

"What do you mean by confessing not long ago?" The Queen Mother was confused.

Jiang Xinhui gritted her teeth and told what she had been hiding.

After hearing this, the Queen Mother almost had a heart attack: "Jiang Xinhui, what can I say about you? You have kept it a secret for so long, you just need to keep it a secret. Why can't you be so patient for a female doctor?"

"Queen Mother, I know I am reckless and petty, but I have no one to rely on. If I don't just rely on you, my lord, I may die in the borderland without anyone knowing."

"Since you knew that, why did you fake your death and leave?" The Queen Mother was not misled by Jiang Xinhui. "You told the Marquis of Wanning the truth. Not only was he not angry, but he helped you with all his strength, raised Lu Sui, and taught him so well. If you had stayed in the Marquis of Wanning's mansion and become the Marquis' wife, you could have lived a life of wealth and glory. In the end, it was because you were too greedy. In terms of hierarchy, the title of the prince's wife is naturally more honorable."

"I have never thought about it this way. I left because I was really afraid of losing the prince. As for the matter with the cold doctor, I was indeed impulsive. I also know that I am sorry for Lu Sui. I gave birth to him but did not raise him. But now I come to you to be honest because I want to take on the responsibility of being a mother." Jiang Xinhui kowtowed desperately after she finished speaking, "I also ask the Queen Mother to have mercy and help me."

"How can you ask me to help you? You've made it clear that you want to make it difficult for me."

"I am willing to die."

"The king does not agree."

There was a roar at the entrance of the palace.

The four of them turned around and saw the Wolf King walking in angrily.

"Your Majesty?" Jiang Xinhui looked at her husband who was walking towards her with a look of shock, "Why are you..."

"Meet the Queen Mother."

After paying his respects, the Wolf King bent down and pulled Jiang Xinhui up from the ground: "Huier, we have been in the capital for quite a long time. It is time to return to the border. Go back to the mansion and pack up. We will set off tomorrow."

"My Lord, what are you talking about?"

"I say, we should go back." The Wolf King looked at the Queen Mother and said with a cupped hand, "Queen Mother, Hui'er and I have many children, but Lu Sui is the son of Marquis Wanning and has nothing to do with me."

The Queen Mother was startled: "Ao Cang, what are you doing..."

"Only in this way can Hui'er and Lu Sui be safe."

The Wolf King, who was standing outside the palace just now, heard that Jiang Xinhui was trying to use her own life to exchange for his and Lu Sui's safety.

He was shocked at once.

Recalling the ups and downs that Jiang Xinhui and I have gone through over the years.

The Gray Wolf King suddenly realized that he was able to stay in the remote frontier for so many years because of his wife's company.

There are also the people of Cangxin Town and the soldiers in the military camp.

As for Lu Sui, he has already made a name for himself. Why should I put him in trouble again?

"Second brother, have you thought it through?" asked Princess Jinghe.

"I've thought about it. Anyway..." The Wolf King choked up as he spoke. He looked up at Yuan Buwei, "I believe that with you by his side, Lu Sui's future will be immeasurable."
