The queen is crazy and spoiled, and the tyrant bows to her

Jiang Wantang was waiting, she was waiting for an opportunity.

Waiting for the person who will come to find her sooner or later...

It was still snowing heavily outside and the weather was cold and chilly.

Jiang Wantang was wearing a red long dress and a white fox fur coat as she sat in front of the window. Her back was straight, like a red plum blossom blooming in the cold winter, cold and lonely.

Exquisite copper stoves were placed everywhere in the hall, with warm charcoal with golden threads burning brightly in them, and the jumping flames reflected her beautiful face.

The snow, like fine needle threads, seeped into the hall through the carved window lattices, accompanied by the chilling sound of the wind and snow, bringing with it an indescribable sense of oppression and heaviness...

It seemed as if the entire world was frozen by the heavy snow, and it was so quiet that only the sound of wind and snow remained, which was cold, solemn and eerie.

Jiang Wantang stared quietly at the heavy snow falling outside the window, her eyes looking far away.

"Sister, have some hot tea to warm yourself up." Yun Shang walked over quietly and poured her another cup of steaming hot tea with a concerned look on her face.

Jiang Wantang slowly came back to his senses, turned his head to look at Yun Shang, and raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a faint smile.

She nodded and said, "Okay."

Seeing this, Yun Shang sat down opposite her and asked suspiciously, "Sister, you've been watching for several days. Do you like snowy days?"

"No..." Jiang Wantang picked up the teacup. The steam lingered in front of her eyes, blurring her vision. She said in a light tone, "On the contrary, I hate snowy days the most."

In such a cold season, it seems that people's hearts are a little colder...

Jiang Wantang took a sip of hot tea, and the warmth flowed down her throat and throughout her body, but it still couldn't dispel the coldness in her heart.

Yun Shang was stunned...

She looked at the quiet Jiang Wantang, her eyes filled with worry. "Sister, you're worried about something. Can you tell me about it?"

The only thing that responded to her was the sound of the snow and wind that was still raging outside the window...

"Yun Shang..." After a long time, Jiang Wantang suddenly called her.

Her voice was very soft, like catkins blown by the wind, gentle and ethereal.

Yun Shang was slightly startled and looked up at her.

The latter's cold and beautiful face appeared even more ethereal and elegant under the reflection of the wind and snow, but her eyes seemed to hide a bottomless pool, surging with complex and indistinguishable emotions.

Jiang Wantang looked at Yun Shang deeply for a long time before she slowly said, "If I told you right now that I wanted you to marry Lu Jinan, would you be willing?"

Yun Shang was stunned for a moment before she understood something.

Then, she looked at Jiang Wantang with a smile and said softly, "Yun Shang is willing."

"Yun Shang always listens to her sister."

"After my sister and His Majesty marry, Yun Shang...will marry Lu Jinan."

"No, I want you to marry Lu Jinan before my wedding." Jiang Wantang said seriously.

Yun Shang's heart suddenly tightened, her eyes flushed red, and her lips trembled slightly: "Sister..."

She opened her mouth, as if she had a thousand words to say, but when she finished speaking, she said nothing.

Although Yun Shang didn't know the complexity and twists and turns involved, she understood Jiang Wantang.

She knew very well that Jiang Wantang treated her like her own sister, and if she hadn't encountered some difficult situation, she would never ask her to marry Lu Jinan.

What's more, it happened so suddenly.

She must have her reasons.

Since Jiang Wantang didn't say anything, she didn't ask.

Jiang Wantang asked her to marry, so she married.

She believes she...

Thinking of this, Yun Shang stood up and took a step forward. She walked to Jiang Wantang, squatted down, gently held her hand, and said with a smile, "Okay, Yun Shang, I will listen to you in everything."

"No matter what decision sister makes, Yunshang will support you."

"No matter what happens in the future, Yun Shang will always stand by my sister and accompany her..."

Jiang Wantang felt a sharp pain in his heart. Feeling the warmth of Yun Shang's palm, tiny bits of light appeared in his moist eyes.

She spoke softly, her voice trembling slightly, "I'm sorry for wronging you. It's my fault as your sister."

Yun Shang showed a warm smile on her face: "Yun Shang is not wronged. Being able to marry Lu Jinan... is great."

"Okay, time will be a bit tight, so I'll let Xiuzhu accompany you then." Jiang Wantang responded with a smile.

Yun Shang's heart trembled, her face still smiling, but her eyes unconsciously turned red.

She squeezed Jiang Wantang's hand tightly and said, "Okay."

At this time, the wind and snow outside seemed to be a little weaker, but the weather was still heavy and depressing.

Jiang Wantang stood up and walked outside. Looking at the sky outside, he murmured, "It's almost time for the morning court session."

Seeing that she seemed to be planning to go out, Yun Shang walked to her side and said softly, "Sister, are you going to see His Majesty?"

"The roads are slippery on snowy days, so I'm going with my sister..."

Jiang Wantang smiled and said, "You are weak, so rest well in the palace. This time, let Xiuzhu accompany me."

Yun Shang said nothing, but gathered the fox fur coat around Jiang Wantang's body, then ordered a palace maid to bring a red oil-paper umbrella, opened it, and handed it to Xiuzhu.

Looking at the backs of the two people walking away together in the snow, Yun Shang's tears, which had been suppressed in her eyes for a long time, slid down her cheeks.

What did it mean to send her and Xiuzhu away in such a hurry? Yun Shang didn't dare to think about it anymore...

Why did it turn out like this out of nowhere?

Jiang Wantang did not use the imperial sedan chair, but walked step by step in the snow and ice.

Xiuzhu supported her carefully, and every step she took left deep and shallow marks in the soft snow. The "crunching" sound was particularly clear in the silent world.

On the palace path, the snow had been cleared by palace servants, but a thin layer still remained, gleaming with an icy sheen in the cold wind. The branches of the nearby trees were bent by the weight of the snow, and occasionally, a piece of snow, unable to bear the weight, fell "rustling" and hit the ground, splashing a cloud of snow mist...

The cold wind grew increasingly biting, mixed with tiny snowflakes that pricked his face like needles. Jiang Wantang squinted his eyes and looked at the outline of the palace in the distance through the falling snow.

Some things will not happen even if she wants to ignore them.

Before that, the only thing she could do was to try her best to protect the people she cherished and arrange a way out for them in advance.

The morning court session had ended, and ministers in court robes filed out of the main hall...

From a distance, Jiang Wantang saw Xie Zhiyan in a purple official uniform and Lu Jinan in a dark crimson official uniform walking out of the hall one after another.
