As more and more people gathered outside, Jiang Yuchu began to panic. This was a shameful thing. It would be fine if people in the palace knew about it, but if people outside the palace knew about it, where would her face be?
"You sluts, why don't you stop it for me?"
She couldn't bear it any longer, someone pushed her.
Ke Yihan originally wanted to find a chance to leave here. They both dressed up today, and as long as they left in time, no one would recognize them. But she actually wanted to reveal their identities so openly.
He pulled the Fifth Princess's sleeve from behind, trying to stop her from speaking, but it was too late.
In the palace, the only people who can be called "this palace" are the princess and the empress. Some brave ones even come closer to take a closer look. After taking a closer look, they find that she does look familiar, but they don't know where they have seen her before.
After all, the princesses had never dressed so simply before, and they were not the ones who served personally, so it was normal that they could not be recognized at first.
"I am the fifth princess."
As soon as she said this, everyone looked at her. It seemed to be true.
Some people began to discuss quietly, "Is this really the Fifth Princess? How could she be so shameless as to do such a thing with a eunuch here?"
Ke Yihan was always behind Jiang Yuchu, with his head down, and in the dark no one could see clearly, so no one recognized him and thought he was a eunuch.
"Isn't the Fifth Princess going to marry into the Qing Kingdom? How dare she do such a thing at this time? If people knew about it, wouldn't it be..."
A palace maid quickly restrained the one who was speaking and said, "You are asking for your life! How dare you say such words? If anyone hears this, you might be beheaded."
"She dared to do this and refused to let anyone say anything. How shameless! I heard that Marquis Ke was truly sincere to the Fifth Princess. How can the Fifth Princess be worthy of Marquis Ke by doing this?"
The two of them talked more and more excitedly, and their voices became louder and louder until everyone inside could hear them.
When Ke Yihan heard his name, he knew that Fairy Ah must leave here immediately. Maybe the Queen Mother would come soon, and he could marry the Fifth Princess openly, but definitely not like this.
He tried to leave stealthily, but was kicked to the ground by the eunuchs behind him. He turned around to see who kicked him, but they were all looking elsewhere.
He didn't dare to look up, for fear of being recognized, and could only lower his head and silently remember the shame.
But he still had to find a way to leave. After the Fifth Princess revealed her identity, these people not only did not leave, but also whispered and gossiped about her.
Some of the words were so disgusting that they could be punished with death. But after she warned one person, another started talking again. She couldn't stop them from talking, nor could she leave here.
"How dare you discuss royal affairs here? Don't you want your heads anymore? Go back to sleep right now."
No one left. She was so angry that she was about to use her identity as a princess to threaten these people when the queen mother arrived.
Although she had indeed gone too far, she felt much more at ease as long as her mother came.
Everyone was busy paying their respects and ignored Ke Yihan who was quietly leaving.
The empress dowager was worried that the emperor would faint and couldn't sleep. After being persuaded by the nanny beside her, she finally went to sleep. Then someone came to report that someone was having an affair in the cold palace.
There were only eunuchs and palace maids in the palace. She didn't take it seriously at first and was about to lie down when she heard Jing'an, who was beside the Fifth Princess, coming.
She felt vaguely uneasy, and almost fainted after hearing what Jing'an said.
"Empress Dowager, please save the princess. There are so many people surrounding her, she can't get out. I had to fight for my life to escape."
She really didn't expect that at such a critical moment, Yu'er would be so stupid and be seen by so many people. Even in her own palace, such a thing would never happen today.
"Lead the way."
She looked at Jing'an with cold murderous eyes, as if she wanted to kill Jing'an.
The master was confused, and Jing'an, as a personal maid, didn't even know how to advise her. If it were any other time, Jing'an would have been beheaded long ago.
When the sedan chair landed, she saw Jiang Yuchu in the clothes of a palace maid from afar.
She was so angry that before she could get close, the queen arrived, followed by some concubines.
"Queen, why don't you quickly disperse these people?"
The Queen had heard long ago that it was the Fifth Princess who was having an affair here, so she deliberately amplified the sound.
"My Queen Mother, I am responsible for your mismanagement, which has led to such a shameful incident in the palace. I believe that a maid or eunuch from one of the palaces couldn't stand the loneliness and disturbed the nobles in the palace. How dare they disturb the nobles in the palace? They are so audacious! Please rest assured, your Queen Mother, I will punish these two people severely to set things right, and also warn everyone else to learn from their mistakes."
The Queen Mother's words were stuck in her throat.
After the Empress Dowager arrived, Rong Xi and Shen Ze'an left the crowd and stood in an inconspicuous position to watch the show.
"What do you think the Queen will do with the Fifth Princess?"
Shen Zean found Rong Xi's face full of gossip amusing, which was different from his usual cold and indifferent demeanor.
"The Queen Mother is still in charge of the palace now. Even if the Queen wants to, she can't do anything."
Rong Xi looked at the queen and she felt that it was not necessarily the case.
"let's go."
"Um."
After returning home, Shen Ze'an returned to Rong Xi's room.
The unlucky box was naturally useless, but Rong Xi was still held tightly in Shen Ze'an's arms.
"Don't you feel uncomfortable like this?"
“Uncomfortable.”
He felt uncomfortable all over. Ever since he took the Chinese medicine prescribed by Rong Xi, he felt strangely itchy all over his body.
"Can you please let me go? How can I sleep like this?"
"Then this."
Rong Xi originally had her back to him, but after she said that, Shen Ze'an directly stepped over Rong Xi, lay down and hugged her.
Rong Xi was speechless. What was the difference between this and just now?
Forget it, she was really sleepy after making a fuss for most of the night.
"System, deep sleep."
System【OK.】
Rong Xi did fall asleep quickly, but Shen Ze'an was wide awake. He felt something different about Rong Xi and wanted to explore it but didn't know where to start.
The bright moonlight streamed in from the window, covering the room like a veil. Rong Xi's fair face shimmered faintly in the moonlight. Looking closely, she noticed a slight roundness in her face, not looking as thin as before.
There seems to be some baby fat on her face, which makes her look very cute.
Shen Ze'an moved closer and closer, so close that he could kiss her forehead just by lowering his head.
But he held back. After all, he was still a eunuch. Hugging her like this was already very abrupt. If...
Suddenly, Shen Ze'an frowned, his breathing became heavier, and he felt a dense pain in his abdomen. He knew that the poison was taking effect.
