Not only her, but also the Empress Dowager at that time.

Looking back, I can only sigh that the person hid himself too deeply.

Concubine Yu suddenly recalled the time when the Empress Dowager taught her to read and recite poetry in this courtyard.

When the Empress Dowager had nothing to do, she liked to take out a collection of poems and recite poems with her. She read many poems to herself.

There were so many that Concubine Yu couldn’t remember them all.

As the Empress Dowager read to her, she taught her some insights and principles of how to behave in society.

She taught seriously, but she didn't listen carefully.

At this moment, Concubine Yu looked at the sycamore tree, and some words gradually became clear in her mind, such as:

She said: "When the tree is tall, the phoenix will come; when the flowers are fragrant, the butterflies will come."

She also said: "Give flowers to yourself, and ride on the flowers to freedom!"

……

It turned out that she had always taught her to be independent, strong, and to rely on herself...

When I first heard it, I didn't understand the deeper meaning of the words. When I recalled it again, everything had changed.

Concubine Yu lay on the couch, two lines of turbid tears unconsciously flowing from the corners of her eyes.

She looked out the window and said to herself: "Ride the horse and step on the flowers to freedom..."

"Empress Dowager, you have always longed for freedom outside the palace, haven't you?"

"We can't get out of this palace wall, so let her do it..."

……

Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye it was the day to leave the palace.

Jiang Wantang had temporarily handed over the management of the six palaces to Lin Ruoyun and Zhao Shujia a few days ago.

Because it was a secret departure from the palace, Ji Wuyuan first issued an external decree and sent the Dali Temple Minister Xie Zhiyan to personally go to the Jiangnan area to deal with the flood.

He then announced to all civil and military officials that he would go to Foguang Temple, worship Buddha devoutly, pray for the people of Jiangnan, and hand over the supervision of the court to the national teacher.

Xie Zhiyan led his men to Jiangnan yesterday, and the holy chariot to Foguang Temple to worship Buddha will set off early tomorrow morning.

As soon as midnight arrived tonight, several inconspicuous carriages appeared at the side entrance of the palace.

The night was as dark as ink, with only a few dim lanterns swaying in the wind. The carriage was parked there quietly, and there was silence all around.

A tall man in a black robe and a black cloak got down from the leading carriage. His enchanting face was faintly visible in the shadows. It was Ji Wuyuan.

Standing next to the carriage was a woman in a white dress. She was the virtuous concubine Bai Weiwei.

The two were talking about something. Bai Weiwei had a pretty face. She tilted her head and looked at Ji Wuyuan with burning eyes.

This was the scene that Jiang Wantang and Yun Shang saw when they arrived.

Yun Shang frowned upon seeing this, and subconsciously raised her eyes to look at Jiang Wantang beside her.

The latter was just stunned for a moment, with no expression on his face.

Yun Shang breathed a sigh of relief.

Jiang Wantang didn't react at all. He calmly pulled Yun Shang towards the carriage behind.

Ji Wuyuan, who was standing next to the carriage, noticed Jiang Wantang the moment she appeared.

He thought it was her who walked to the carriage, so he got off the carriage to pick her up, but what he saw was Bai Weiwei, whose face was full of joy and expectation.

He thought Jiang Wantang would walk towards him after seeing him, but she took Yun Shang to another carriage without hesitation.

Ji Wuyuan gritted his teeth, his handsome face instantly darkened beyond recognition, and his tone was a bit cold: "Stop."

At this moment, Bai Weiwei noticed Jiang Wantang and Yun Shang, who were also wearing light-colored dresses, standing nearby. Her expression froze for a moment, then she smiled politely and said, "So my sister is going too."

"The journey is long and arduous. I once fought alongside my brother and spent several years in the military camp. I have some basic medical skills. Why don't you bring your sister with me so I can take care of her."

Jiang Wantang paused, turned around, and smiled at the two of them: "No, I'm a pampered person. I've never been to a military camp and I can't stand being crowded, so I won't bother you anymore."

She didn't want to leave the palace. She had to accompany Bai Weiwei in acting. It was so tiring.

If Ji Wuyuan likes it, he can enjoy it himself.

After saying that, Jiang Wantang turned around and walked towards the carriage behind.

She had only taken two steps when she suddenly felt a strong wind coming from behind her. She screamed, and before she could react, Ji Wuyuan carried her horizontally on his shoulders and walked towards the large carriage in the lead.

Yun Shang opened her eyes wide in surprise, covered her mouth, and almost screamed out in fright.

The smile on Bai Weiwei's face disappeared and her expression became extremely ugly.

Just like that, under the gazes of several people with different expressions, Jiang Wantang was carried directly onto the carriage by Ji Wuyuan.

After Bai Weiwei reacted, she wanted to follow, but the carriage door slammed shut in front of her.

Bai Weiwei felt as if she had been slapped in public. Her face was filled with embarrassment and flushed red.

She originally thought that Ji Wuyuan only took her, one of his concubines, with him when he left the palace this time.

She thought he had come down from the carriage to pick her up...

Just like that, Bai Weiwei's movement to get on the carriage paused slightly, and she had to put down her leg that had just been raised. Not daring to delay, she suppressed her anger and turned to walk towards the carriage behind.

She didn't understand why Ji Wuyuan brought a vase like Jiang Wantang with him to deal with such a big issue as the flood?

Besides seducing men, what else can Jiang Wantang do?

Is it true that he can't leave this vixen even for a moment?

Thinking of this, his face became even uglier.

In the carriage, Ji Wuyuan threw Jiang Wantang directly onto the soft couch covered with a velvet carpet, and then pressed on her.

Jiang Wantang was enraged and struggled to get up, but Ji Wuyuan held her tightly in his arms and she couldn't move.

The latter bit her fair and slender neck, neither lightly nor heavily, and warned her coldly: "Be good, don't move..."

Jiang Wantang glared at him angrily: "What are you doing? Let me go!"

Ji Wuyuan looked at her deeply, and finally laughed out of anger. He gritted his teeth and said, "Do you think my carriage is too crowded?"

"Tang'er, look now, is this carriage still crowded?"

"If Tang'er still feels crowded, you can lie on me."

Jiang Wantang rolled her eyes inwardly and said unhappily, "I dare not."

Ji Wuyuan turned her over, raised his hand and slapped her on the buttocks, gritted his teeth and sneered: "Tang'er is really naughty..."

"Didn't you promise that after leaving the palace, there would be no distinction between emperor and concubine, and you could call me A Yuan?"

Jiang Wantang's face flushed red immediately, and she became angry and said, "Ji Wuyuan, you bastard..."
