Quickly Transmigrate to Save the Child of Heaven

At Jingyang Palace, the Fifth Prince was shocked to learn that Xiaoyanzi had been given the title of Heshuo Shuhua Gege. He recalled his own desire to marry Xiaoyanzi, but the Empress Dowager and the Emperor, believing her to be of low birth, forced him to marry Xinrong instead. Now, the Emperor had actually given Xiaoyanzi the title of Heshuo Gege. What could this possibly mean? Could it be a plan to send Xiaoyanzi to marry a foreign prince? The thought of this possibility irritated the Fifth Prince, who immediately arose and headed to Shufangzhai to find Xiaoyanzi and inquire about the situation.

Meanwhile, Xinrong heard the news that Xiaoyanzi had become a Heshuo Gege, and also learned that the Fifth Prince had gone looking for her. Jealousy welled up in her, realizing that even after all her marriage to the Fifth Prince, he had never been intimate with her, and that he was still obsessed with Xiaoyanzi. This jealousy spiraled out of control, culminating in her angrily smashing all the jewelry on her dressing table...

A woman dressed in a pale blue Manchu dress entered the Cining Palace. Her hair was styled in two small buns, a crabapple flower hairpin adorning her bun, giving her a strikingly fresh and refined appearance. Her face was beautiful, her skin white as snow, and her lips curled slightly upwards in a sweet smile. Her figure was lithe and her manners graceful, like a fairy stepped from a painting.

The Queen Mother took a closer look and saw that it was Xiaoyanzi. She was shocked. She had been skeptical when the Emperor spoke of this before, but now she had some faith in what he said. After all, the original Xiaoyanzi did not have the temperament of a lady from an aristocratic family.

Xiaoyanzi felt the Queen Mother's gaze, raised her head, and saluted her with a smile. The Queen Mother nodded, motioning for her to stand up, and then said, "Please sit down, Princess Shuhua!"

Xiaoyanzi replied respectfully, "Thank you, Queen Mother!" Seeing her casual and elegant sitting posture, the Queen Mother could not help but nod. She was a little fond of this girl.

The Queen Mother asked, "I heard that the tea brewed by Princess Shuhua is very refreshing. I wonder if I have had the chance to try it!"

Xiaoyanzi smiled and said, "Please, Madam Gui, prepare tea leaves, tea sets, and boiled water!" It seems that the Emperor has told the Queen Mother, so it will be easy. After all, her mission is to stay away from the Fifth Prince and let Xiao Jian get his comeuppance. Then she can do whatever she wants. Madam Gui glanced at the Queen Mother and went out to prepare everything. Xiaoyanzi picked up the teapot with elegant movements and gently poured water into the teacup. The water flowed like a thread, and the fragrance of tea filled the air. Her technique was skillful and confident, as if it all happened naturally. Every time she poured water, it was just right, without spilling a drop of water, and not too much or too little.

The Queen Mother and Qing'er stared wide-eyed at Xiaoyanzi's every move, their hearts filled with wonder. They had never seen such superb tea-making skills before; it was like an artistic performance.

As the tea slowly seeped through the leaves, its aroma filling her nostrils, Xiaoyanzi smiled and handed two cups of hot tea to the Queen Mother and Qing'er respectively. The Queen Mother took the cups and gently sipped, instantly feeling a refreshing flavor spread throughout her mouth. She closed her eyes, savoring the tea, taking in the delight it brought.

Qing'er also picked up the teacup, smelled the tea, and then took a sip. She was immediately attracted by the unique taste and couldn't help but drink a few more sips.

However, at this moment, the Queen Mother suddenly felt a sense of relief, as if all her fatigue had been swept away. She looked at Xiaoyanzi in surprise, a glint of joy in her eyes. If a powerful and capable person were to be kept within the imperial family, it would be a great boon to the Qing Dynasty.

Qing'er fell into deep thought. She realized that her previous obsession and fascination with a chivalrous knight seemed to have faded. She began to reflect on her past actions, regretting her impulsiveness and mistakes.

Xiaoyanzi watched the Queen Mother and Qing'er's reactions, feeling secretly pleased. She knew that the awakening pill had worked, not only refreshing the Queen Mother but also helping Qing'er get rid of her previous troubles.

The Queen Mother took one look at Qing'er and knew that the influence on Qing'er had been lifted. She said happily: "Sure enough, Princess Shuhua's tea really makes me like it. I have a pair of top-quality pigeon blood stone bracelets in my private storehouse to give to you." Nanny Gui hurriedly handed the box to Xiaoyanzi, who motioned for Chunhua to take it.

Xiaoyanzi: "Thank you, Queen Mother, for your reward..."

The Queen Mother: "Good boy, when you have time, come to the Cining Palace more often to accompany me and Qing'er..."

Xiaoyanzi: "It's the Queen Mother!" Then the Queen Mother happily invited Xiaoyanzi to have lunch, and then Xiaoyanzi took Chunhua Qiuyue back home.

Meanwhile, Xiao Jian heard that Xiaoyanzi had become Princess Shuhua and prepared to go to the palace. However, the palace was heavily guarded. He found Erkang and the others, but was told that they had been dismissed and could not enter. Fortunately, the emperor had already decreed that Princess Ziwei should marry him, so it was not long before he could regain his position, or even get promoted to a higher level.

The Fifth Prince, who had been waiting outside the Yunmeng Palace for a long time, saw Xiaoyanzi return and hurried forward to pull her back, but Xiaoyanzi dodged him. Xiaoyanzi looked at him indifferently and said in a flat tone: "Fifth Prince, how come you have time to come to Yunmeng Palace today? Are you looking for Shuhua for something?" The Fifth Prince looked at the beautiful and elegant Xiaoyanzi in front of him, and a sense of strangeness surged in his heart, but he still hurriedly said: "Xiaoyanzi, are you angry with me? I haven't come to see you for so many days, I really miss you..." After saying this, he was about to go forward to hug Xiaoyanzi, but was stopped by Chunhua and Qiuyue. The Fifth Prince shouted angrily: "You bold servants, how dare you stop me?" Xiaoyanzi sneered and said lightly: "Fifth Prince, please respect yourself. Shuhua Yunying is not married yet. Your behavior at this time will cause great damage to Shuhua's reputation! If it gets out, how can Shuhua live? Besides, you have already married Xinrong Gege, you should treat her well..."

The Fifth Prince looked at Xiaoyanzi helplessly and tried to explain, "Xiaoyanzi, how can you say that? I married Xinrong to save your brother Xiaojian!"

However, Xiaoyanzi refuted without hesitation: "Xiao Jian is not my brother. I am an orphan, and not everything he said is true. As a prince, you don't even bother to verify it. You just believe everything others say. Besides, didn't you marry Xinrong because Concubine Yu threatened to commit suicide? Stop pretending to be so affectionate. If you really like me, you wouldn't give up our relationship so easily for other reasons. If we can't overcome all difficulties and be together, it only means that your love for me is not deep enough..."

After saying these words, Xiaoyanzi resolutely turned around and walked back to her palace without looking back. The Fifth Prince stood there in a daze, listening to Xiaoyanzi's footsteps gradually receding. A sharp pain washed over him, as if struck by a heavy hammer. He stared wide-eyed, unable to believe what was happening before his eyes.

The Fifth Prince's face turned pale instantly, and his body trembled slightly. He felt a deep sense of despair and self-blame welling up in his heart. He had never thought that his decision would make Xiaoyanzi so determined. He began to reflect on his actions and realized that he might have really done something wrong.

Finally, the Fifth Prince left the scene in a state of despair, stumbling as if he had lost his soul. His heart was filled with regret and pain, and he didn't know how to face this sudden change.
