On the other hand, Wen Yilan took Jiang Wanyi out of the palace. After returning home, she told Jiang Wanyi about the situation in the harem and how, although Xiahou Xuan seemed to have the power of life and death over the world, he was actually still controlled by the Xia family, which was the descendant of the Queen Mother.

After hearing this, Jiang Wanyi was very worried about Jiang Wange's situation:

"Then my sister is in great danger, isn't she? His Majesty favors my sister only now, and the Queen Mother will definitely try every means to get rid of her."

"Don't worry, with His Majesty protecting Jiang Liangyuan, she will be fine. And as far as I know, Jiang Liangyuan should have reached a cooperation with His Majesty."

Wen Yilan held Jiang Wanyi's cold hands, signaling her not to worry too much.

But after hearing him say that, Jiang Wanyi became even more worried.

"So your Majesty just proposed that I live in Fengming Palace, hoping to use me and the child to attract attention and conceal the fact that my sister is pregnant, right?"

Wen Yilan nodded with difficulty, "Your Majesty does mean this, but I respect your opinion. If you don't want to, I won't take risks with you and the child."

When Jiang Wanyi heard Wen Yilan's words, he fell into silence and deep thought.

After a long while, she slowly raised her head and looked at him:

"My husband, is your relationship with His Majesty good?"

She always felt that her husband and His Majesty had an extremely close relationship, as if they trusted each other very much.

"Xiaoyi, the relationship between His Majesty and I is like that of brothers. I have witnessed his lowest and most miserable period, and I have also witnessed his glorious moment of overcoming all difficulties and ascending to the throne. His Majesty and I have long been one."

Wen Yilan's words of analyzing her inner thoughts were met with Jiang Wanyi's long silence.

"Husband, how about letting me think about this for another night?"

"Xiaoyi, I don't want to put my responsibility on you, so you don't have to consider me. Follow your heart. You can think about it carefully and don't rush to reply."

Hearing this, Jiang Wanyi breathed a sigh of relief and decided to carefully consider whether to agree to His Majesty's request.

The couple did not sleep well that night. The next morning, Jiang Wanyi told Wen Yilan that she was willing to join the game.

Wen Yilan was both happy and worried. She was happy that she was so understanding and supported herself and His Majesty, but she was worried that her safety would not be guaranteed after entering the palace.

However, after they entered the palace, Xiahou Xuan told them that Jiang Wange had sternly rejected the proposal, so he decided to give up the plan.

"I am very grateful for your willingness to help, but I think Wanwan is right. I want to achieve my goal of conquering the country and clearing up the court and harem. There is no need to involve too many innocent people."

Jiang Wange's words enlightened Xiahou Xuan and made him realize his mistake, so now he was extremely sober and rejected the couple's kindness.

Hearing this, Wen Yilan and Jiang Wanyi didn't say anything more. Wen Yilan was left to talk with Xiahou Xuan, while Jiang Wanyi went to find Jiang Wange to teach medical knowledge.

After Jiang Wanyi left, Wen Yilan was no longer as reserved as before:

"Ajin, this is not like your style."

Xiahou Xuan's courtesy name was Xinjin, and only those who were very close to him knew his courtesy name.

And when Wen Yilan addressed Xiahou Xuan like that, there was a hint of questioning in her words.

"Oh? Then what kind of style do you think I should have?" Xiahou Xuan asked back.

"In my eyes, Ajin can give up everything, even the happiness of those closest to him, in order to secure his kingdom and the throne. But now you give up your plan just because of a little Liangyuan. Isn't that too hasty?"

Xiahou Xuan raised his eyes and looked at Wen Yilan, his expression gradually becoming colder.

"Wen Yilan, Jiang Wanyi is your wife, and the child in her belly is also your flesh and blood. I don't want to take risks with them, not only because of Wanwan's words, but also for you."

Wen Yilan was stunned for a moment, then frowned, and finally relaxed.

"I'm sorry, I was too... too worried. I was worried that you would..."

"Will I give up my great kingdom for a woman? No, I will never do that. I will never forget what I sacrificed to ascend the throne. I will not be at peace until the Xia family's power is eradicated!"

Xiahou Xuan's reassurance made Wen Yilan feel much more at ease, and then Wen Yilan apologized to him again:

"I'm sorry, just pretend that I never said that, Jin. I will support you no matter what you do."

After hearing what Wen Yilan said, Xiahou Xuan's expression softened a lot:

"Of course, we are lifelong brothers, and that will never change."

Ci'an Palace

The empress dowager was wearing a light gauze dress, with her delicate hands exposed outside the quilt. There was a man lying beside her. If you look closely, you will find that he looks very much like someone.

"Your Majesty, why didn't you summon me to serve you for so long? I miss you so much."

The man's name was Liang Kun. He was one of the empress dowager's male favorites. He usually worked as a drug tester in the Imperial Hospital. When the empress dowager needed him, she would summon him to Ci'an Palace to relieve her loneliness.

"I was too busy these days and didn't have time to spend time with you. Why don't you leave the palace to accompany your pregnant wife?"

Liang Kun was married before he entered the palace to work as a drug tester. His wife is now pregnant. As a husband, he has been on duty in the palace and rarely leaves the palace to accompany his wife who is about to give birth.

"Your Majesty, are you jealous? You know, Your Majesty, that I don't like the wife you gave me at all. She is too rigid and boring. How can she compare to the beauty and charm of Your Majesty~~"

As he spoke, Liang Kun could not help but let his hands wander over the Queen Mother's body. Seeing this, Liang Kun raised his hand to remove the veil, and the two of them went to Wushan to make love.

“Knock, knock, knock—Her Majesty, I have something important to report!”

There was a knock on the door, and Nanny Sun's voice was heard from outside.

The Queen Mother immediately pushed Liang Kun's sticky body away and glanced down at him:

"Put on your clothes immediately and leave quickly. I will summon you again if I need you."

Liang Kun was ready to attack, but he didn't dare to disobey. He immediately picked up his clothes and left through the side door.

"come in--"

After the Queen Mother saw that there was nothing unusual, she let Nanny Sun in.

As soon as Nanny Sun came in, she smelled an indescribable scent of camellia and frowned slightly.

"What's the matter that bothers me so late at night?"

There was a hint of "dissatisfaction" in the Queen Mother's eyes.

"Empress Dowager, if it wasn't for an urgent matter, I would never dare to disturb you. Lord Xia sent a letter outside the palace, asking you to make a decision."

After saying that, Nanny Sun handed the Queen Mother a letter.

The Queen Mother stretched out her hand unhappily, and after opening the letter and reading it, her face became extremely ugly.

"How can this be! Chen Zongyuan was just dealt with like this? He is simply a waste!"

The letter was thrown on the ground and the Queen Mother stepped on it hard.
