On the full moon banquet for her child, the devastating news arrived that her husband had died on the battlefield. Sheng Xiyan fell into the abyss.
The prince's mansion bullied the orphan...
This night, at the hour of Hai.
Guanju Palace, the main hall.
The candlelight flickered, and goose pear incense burned in the pink glass incense burner.
Sheng Xiyan sat in front of the golden nanmu dressing table.
She tapped the table lightly with her fingers and took out the golden moth crown from the jewelry cabinet. This was the jewelry Xuan Ling had given her - her favorite.
She remembered when he put the flower crown on her, pinching her face and saying lovingly, "Yanyan is my little princess..."
"Xuan Ling, I don't want to be your princess anymore. Just live a good life with your new princess!"
Her dark eyebrows raised slightly, "I don't want you anymore. As a man, I can have as much as I want."
Turning around, he said, "Hua Xia, go sort out the banknotes for me."
Hua Xia was stunned. She grabbed her hand and asked nervously, "My Queen, are you planning to escape from the palace?"
Sheng Xiyan chuckled and coaxed, "How could that be? I was just checking how much silver we have saved to prevent it from being gnawed by rats."
Hua Xia didn't believe it and knelt down to hug her legs. "My Lady, every time you want to leave the palace, you ask me to sort out the banknotes. If you want to leave, take this servant with you! Otherwise, I will report you!"
Sheng Xiyan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and helped her up: "Okay, okay, I'll take you away, take you away. You girl, you are really getting smarter and smarter."
It was the middle of the night, the moon was dark and the wind was strong.
Sheng Xiyan took Hua Xia and quietly left Guanju Palace.
Hua Xia asked nervously in a low voice, "My Lady, how are we going to fly away?"
Sheng Xiyan took out a gourd vine from her sleeve and said with a smile, "I'm pregnant, so my magic power has been affected. Since you can't fly, it would be very convenient for us to sit on the gourd."
She waved the gourd vine, and the gourd instantly grew larger and floated in the air.
Hua Xia hugged the gourd nervously, afraid that it would fall.
Sheng Xiyan lay on the gourd, with a round belly and crossed legs, and said leisurely: "Don't be afraid, you won't fall down."
Leaving the palace now? Actually, I'm quite reluctant to leave.
Hua Xia looked back and saw a fire in the direction of Yongshou Palace. She exclaimed, "My Lady, did you burn down Yongshou Palace?"
Sheng Xiyan said lazily, "It's nothing, just a small fireball. That vixen Xue Qiong wants to live in Yongshou Palace? Wishful thinking."
The gourd flew for a while and landed in a large mansion.
Sheng Xiyan looked left and right, puzzled: "Hey, why don't they look alike?"
Hua Xia whispered, "Your Majesty, we flew the wrong route. This is not the Marquis' Mansion."
Suddenly, a dog rushed out and chased the two of them, barking.
Sheng Xiyan grabbed Hua Xia and flew onto the gourd: "Let's go!"
The sleeping person came out and looked up at the sky: "Hey, why is there something flying in the sky? Is it a shooting star?"
He quickly put his hands together and made a wish, "Oh shooting star, please bless my wife to get pregnant soon."
After a while, the gourd landed in the Wu'an Marquis Mansion.
As the two arrived at the door of the main house in the front yard, a tall and handsome man appeared, looked at them in disbelief, walked over quickly, and hugged Sheng Xiyan.
"Ayan, am I dreaming? I dreamed of you coming, and I don't want to wake up from this dream."
Qi Yan's voice trembled.
Sheng Xiyan hugged him and patted his back: "Ayan, this is not a dream, it is real. If you don't believe me, pinch my face."
Qi Yan touched her face to confirm that it was true.
Confused, "Ayan, why did you run out of the palace in the middle of the night? Your belly is so big, it's so dangerous."
Sheng Xiyan whispered, "Shh, I want to see Jiang Jiang go."
The door opened and the two of them walked in quietly.
He was sleeping soundly on the mahogany bed.
The little guy curled up into a ball, his little face was pink and tender, and his long eyelashes were like little fans, trembling slightly with his breathing.
Sheng Xiyan came closer and kissed the little face gently.
Qi Yan whispered, "Ayan, I know everything that's happened in the palace these days. Since the emperor favors Xue Qiong, why don't I take you and Jiang Jiang away from the capital and let our family live somewhere with beautiful scenery and mountains."
Sheng Xiyan jokingly said, "Aren't you afraid that the Emperor will issue a warrant for our arrest, and we'll be hunted down and trapped every day, becoming exiles?"
Qi Yan held her hand and said firmly, "Then let's go outside the Great Wall. I know the nearest route. Once we get there, the Emperor won't be able to do anything to us."
Sheng Xiyan placed her other hand on Qi Yan's hand, feeling mixed emotions.
If she was Xi Yan from the Ninth Heaven in her previous life, then Qi Yan was Qi Hu, the White Tiger Star Lord, who fell into the mortal world for her.
"Ayan, I'm the one who hurt you. Thank you for coming to accompany me regardless of everything."
Qi Yan was completely confused and said with a smile, "Do we still need to exchange these polite words? I'll hurry and pack up, and we'll leave tonight. Once we're out of the city, the carriage will run slower, so you can't upset the baby."
Sheng Xiyan was stunned and struggled in her heart.
She can play with all the men in the world, but she cannot play with Qi Yan's feelings, because he is the only one who is sincere to her.
He said cruelly, "Ayan, I want to leave on my own. I came here today to tell you to take good care of Jiang Jiang. After a while, when the matter of my escape from the palace has settled down, I will come to pick Jiang Jiang up."
Qi Yan was anxious and hugged her:
"Ayan, when you and the Emperor were in a good relationship, I could stay away and not disturb you. Now, I will never let go. Are you worried about the baby in your belly? I will treat you as my own child and love you as if you were my own."
Sheng Xiyan stayed in his arms for a long time without saying a word, tears welling up in her eyes: "Ayan, I still can't forget him, I'm sorry."
Qi Yan hugged her tightly and said in a deep voice: "It doesn't matter, even if you can't forget it, it doesn't matter, I will always be with you."
Sheng Xiyan said cruelly, "If you follow me, you will be charged with treason for abducting the imperial concubine and plotting to murder the heir to the throne."
Qi Yan said firmly: "I'm not afraid."
