"very good!"
With a slight upturn of her lips, Rong Chang raised her eyes, her gaze shimmering with a captivating light.
Everything seemed to be under her and Hua Changge's control.
Since he had decided to give up his privileged life and take her sightseeing.
All Rong Chang could do was protect him.
In fact, she already knew that Consort Li had secretly gone to Changge Palace.
But that's exactly the result she wanted.
Historically, when new people rise to power, the old guard rarely fare well.
If Consort Li wanted to curry favor with Hua Changxuan, all she could do was betray Hua Changge's whereabouts.
Of course, that's the only itinerary for now.
The trip to the temple in the south of the city three days later was indeed a good opportunity for an escape.

Two days later, Consort Lian came by when Rong Chang was packing her luggage at Yunhe Palace.
She seemed to have sensed something, but she said nothing. She just smiled and looked at Rong Shang's back, saying, "Be careful on your way out of the palace this time."
Rong Shang glanced at her sideways and gave a faint "hmm".
However, after pausing for a few seconds, she seemed to have thought of something.
After putting down her package, she turned around and said thoughtfully, "Don't wait for someone who won't come back. He's not the person you loved back then anymore."
Consort Lian liked Hua Changxuan simply because he saved her, and simply because he was kind and gentle.
Can……
“No, I know he hasn’t changed.” Consort Lian shook her head, her tone exceptionally firm.
Rong Shang glanced at her, and seeing that she was so stubborn, she simply stopped talking and turned around again to put the package away.
Behind her, Consort Lian looked at her with a complicated expression.
He hasn't changed.
One day you'll find out who he did all for.

Soon, the days passed by.
Hua Changge chose to travel on the evening of October 16th.
Rong Chang had prepared her travel expenses early in the morning and was ready to set off.
That evening, the sky was covered with dark clouds.
The imperial carriage and guards were already waiting in front of the main hall.
Rong Shang changed into a simple set of men's outerwear. When she came out from behind the screen, Hua Changge had already arrived.
The man is wearing the same color and style of clothes as her tonight.
Hua Changge's expression was rather cold and stern tonight, as if he was preparing to leave the Moonshadow Palace. He seemed to be preoccupied with something on his mind.
Until he walked up to her, and the two looked at each other.
Hua Changge's sharp gaze softened slightly.
"Are you ready?" Rong Shang asked, looking at him.
"Um."
With his deep gaze fixed on her, Hua Changge glanced at her several times before taking two steps forward and then reaching out to pull her into his arms.
In the evening, the wind picked up outside.
Hua Changge hugged her tightly, "We can go now."
To be honest, deciding to leave the palace with the team tonight was risky.
If Hua Changxuan knew they were going out tonight...
They might be waiting at the palace gates with their men right now.
But Hua Changge has never been afraid of anyone.
Bring along the package you prepared earlier.
Hua Changge covered Rong Chang's face with a black veil.
He then took her hand and led her outside.
Outside Yunhe Palace, the chief guard who had always been by Hua Changge's side couldn't help but tear up when he saw them leaving.
He didn't understand.
With the emperor's power so immense, he has no reason to fear Hua Changxuan.
If he's willing to stay and fight, the outcome is uncertain.
Why run away?
No wonder... it turns out he had already made up his mind a long time ago.
No wonder he always managed to get his subordinates to obediently side with Hua Changxuan.
The chief guard found Hua Changge's performance utterly unfamiliar.
