"You really don't want to enter the palace now?" Dongfang Jin asked her again.

"I'm still young now." An Qingran thought that she would have to wait for another half a year before she could reach the age of marriage, but suddenly she remembered that the queen's body could not last another half a year and she only had two or three months to live. She couldn't help but feel conflicted and sad at the same time, for the queen and for Dongfang Jin.

She couldn't imagine what would happen to Dongfang Jin if he lost his mother. She really wished she was a god so she could save lives.

Seeing her sudden silence, Dongfang Jin asked in confusion: "Is it just because you are young? Are you hiding something from me?"

An Qingran shook her head: "Of course, there is another reason, but I promised you not to mention it again from now on, so I won't mention it..."

She smiled and pulled at her face scarf, and Dongfang Jin smiled knowingly.

Whenever An Qingran thought of Queen Yun, her expression could not remain calm. She could not bear to see herself and Dongfang Jin getting married, and she could not tell Dongfang Jin about the Queen's matter. This secret became her heaviest burden, making her really embarrassed and not knowing what to do.

Dongfang Jin looked at An Qingran's expression and knew that she must have something wrong. After thinking for a while, maybe she felt that her father and mother would not allow her to enter the palace? Or was she worried that the ministers would object?

She doesn't care about her appearance at all, but others will definitely make a fuss about it.

He decided that he must solve all the problems himself and not let the little girl worry about this matter.

She has enough to worry about.

After Dongfang Jin left, An Qingran breathed a sigh of relief. She lifted her veil in front of the mirror and looked at the face in the mirror. She couldn't help but frown. It was so ugly, not only ugly, but also disgusting.

It’s really difficult for the prince.

When she thought of Dongfang Jin's behavior today, she couldn't help but smile. Thinking about it now, her heart still beat fast. She had never tasted such a warm feeling in her previous life. When she was with Dongfang Ye, she always felt that she was giving. In order to please him, she did countless things against her will. Now she couldn't imagine that in her previous life, she actually married Qin Xiangning as a concubine for Dongfang Ye. She really had no self-respect and completely lost herself.

In this life, she lived for herself, but unexpectedly, she gained true love.

Only then did she realize how happy it was to be loved, pampered and have someone to rely on.

Honeysuckle brought in the medicine with red eyes.

"What's wrong with you?" An Qingran stared into her eyes. The last time he went to the nursing home, she cried at home and damaged her eyes. He had already cured her, but now she's sick again?

Honeysuckle smiled: "Miss, I am happy for you..."

"You silly girl, were you eavesdropping on our conversation?"

"Miss, I didn't mean to eavesdrop, it's just that the noise was so loud that I could hear it even though I was standing in the yard. But don't worry, Miss. I have sent all the maids away. Every time the prince comes, I drive them to the side rooms to choose medicinal herbs..." The Honeysuckle Ghost smiled.

"Give them half a month's salary tomorrow..." An Qingran smiled.

These maids also suffered with her.

Honeysuckle is leaving.

An Qingran drank the medicine and then said, "Ren Dong, is there any movement in Beiyuan recently? What is Shen Zhihua doing?"

Ren Dong lowered her voice and said, "Last time, the Madam did not agree to his proposal, and he did not react much, but the old Madam and his mother were very angry. Fang even complained in her own courtyard, saying that what she did was..."

Honeysuckle paused.

"I understand. She must have said something very unpleasant, right?" An Qingran said calmly.

Honeysuckle nodded.

"It's okay, you did a great job..."

"So what are you going to do, young lady?" Honeysuckle asked worriedly.

"The fact that she can yell and curse in the yard shows that she is brave but not wise. We should not be afraid of her. Let her yell as much as she wants. It is not worth worrying about her..."

After listening to this, Honeysuckle exclaimed, "Young lady is really smart. I was so angry when I heard the news, but why didn't you think of this? I remember when I was a child, Madam once said that calling a sparrow is useless."

An Qingran nodded slightly: "Yes, dogs that bite people usually don't bark."

Phoenix Palace.

Queen Yun sat on the phoenix couch, with a little palace maid behind her gently massaging her shoulders. Although An Qingran said that she would be like a normal person in the extra six months of life, and it was indeed like that at the beginning, she still felt tired recently, and became breathless after moving for a long time. She didn't want the father and son to find out, so she still dressed very brightly and put on exquisite makeup every day, looking like a young woman in her thirties.

The plague some time ago had caused her a lot of worry. She felt sorry for the emperor and was trying to find a solution. She even went outside the city to inspect the situation in person. She wanted to help the emperor as much as she could before she left, so that she could die with peace of mind.

There was only one thing that the emperor had not revealed, and she felt unsure.

That's the Crown Princess' business.

Just as she was thinking about this, Dongfang Jin came. When he entered the room, he first paid his respects, and then asked about the queen's diet. Seeing that he believed that he was well, the queen felt sad. Now that the famine had ended, she didn't know what would happen to the prince one day.

"My son, what's so difficult?"

"Mother, do you see that I am in trouble?"

"You are my child, don't I understand?" Queen Yun smiled, "If you have anything to say, tell me. I am not confused yet, so maybe I can help you."

Dongfang Jin smiled first: "Mother, I want to marry An Qingran... the sooner the better."

When An Qingran was mentioned, Queen Yun hesitated for a moment and said, "I heard that she was disfigured. Is that serious?"

"Fortunately, it's just a few pimples." Dongfang Jin said lightly.

"Really? You even hid it from your mother?" Queen Yun's eyes were scorching, which made Dongfang Jin smile mischievously.

"I can't hide anything from my mother. The acne on her face is very serious. I don't know if it can be cured. I'm afraid that even if it is cured, it will leave marks..."

"You don't care?"

"I don't care. Even if she is really too ugly to be seen in public, my son will just feel sorry for her and won't despise her." When Dongfang Jin said this, he felt very warm in his heart. He was already very excited that she could accept him, so how could he care about anything else.

When Queen Yun heard him say this, she nodded slightly and said, "My son has grown up and matured. He has his own opinions. As a mother, I am relieved."

"Mother..." Dongfang Jin felt something was wrong with her voice, but he couldn't put it into words. "In the future, if my son makes mistakes, I will have to remind and scold him from time to time."

"Well, okay, don't find me annoying when the time comes." Queen Yun said this, but there was a barely perceptible sadness in her eyes.
