A gentle breeze through half a curtain.

A bed bathed in moonlight.

Indulging in pleasure, one loses track of time.

From then on, no one in the palace dared to underestimate the Pingnan Emperor of Yu Kingdom, now the Imperial Noble Lady.

No one knows what methods he used to make His Majesty stay by his side day and night.

Tsinghua Palace became a place everyone wanted to go, but...

His Majesty has issued an order that no one may set foot in Qinghua Palace without the invitation of the Imperial Noble Consort.

It's so enviable that everyone can't get a foothold in the thriving business over there.

Tsinghua Palace.

A palace maid whispered:

"Your Highness, the Seventh Prince has sent a message saying he will come to pay his respects later."

Xiao Ling's lips curled up slightly.

The Seventh Prince?

"not see!"

The palace attendant was somewhat embarrassed and advised, "The Seventh Prince is the son of the Phoenix Lord and has always been favored by His Majesty. If we don't see him, we might offend not only the Seventh Prince but also the Phoenix Lord."

"From the day I began serving His Majesty, I have already offended the Phoenix Lord. His Majesty has granted me permission to close my doors, and I am merely obeying the decree!"

"Yes!" The palace servant stopped trying to persuade him, sighed silently, and turned to leave.

In the Phoenix Palace.

The seventh prince was somewhat indignant.

"Father, does that Imperial Noble Consort really have some kind of seductive tricks that have kept Mother from coming to your palace for so long?"

"Father is getting old!" Feng Jun touched his face, and there were shallow wrinkles between his brows from overwork.

The seventh prince's heart tightened, and he became even more worried.

"Just now, that vile woman didn't even see me. This is outrageous!"

"Shut up! That is the Imperial Noble Consort. You mustn't be rude. You're already married. You should act like an adult. You're just asking for trouble by speaking so recklessly."

The seventh prince was somewhat annoyed.

“Father, you should set some rules for him. He’s been spoiled and now he’s arrogant and lawless. He doesn’t even know that he’s just a servant.”

"Establish rules? Aren't the rules of the Yu Kingdom's palace bigger than those of the Wushui Kingdom? Only His Majesty can spoil him into such a lawless state! As for your so-called 'serving the emperor,' your father, I started as a servant. Don't look down on servants; you were defeated by a mere servant!"

"Father, why are you stabbing me in the heart like this?" The Seventh Prince was furious and burst into tears!

"Fool!" Feng Jun was also somewhat angry.

The seventh prince stopped crying, but stubbornly kept shedding tears, remaining silent.

His appearance made Feng Jun feel even more sorry for him.

Feng Jun patted his head and asked, "How are things between you and Jiang Xinwei?"

"That's exactly it!"

"How so?"

The seventh prince threw himself into his arms and cried, "She hasn't touched me in so long. Even when she comes, she just rushes through it and doesn't care whether I'm happy or not. Father, I regret it so much!"

"I told you long ago that foreigners are unreliable, but you insisted on throwing yourself into it. Since she treats you this way, why not divorce her? Do you think my princes are worried about finding a wife?"

"No! No, no!" The seventh prince panicked and wiped away his tears. "Father, please don't. Actually... she's been alright with me, but ever since the servant she brought from Yu Kingdom died, there seems to be a barrier between us."

"You acted too hastily!" Feng Jun sighed. "Do you know you were wrong?"

“Father, I know I was wrong. How did you get rid of Liu Guijun back then?”

"What nonsense are you spouting?" Feng Jun was truly infuriated by this fool. Looking around to make sure no one was watching, she roared, "If you continue to speak so recklessly, you'll be harming me! Who will stand up for you then? Go and copy this scripture a hundred times! If you don't finish, you're not allowed to come see me!"
