The maidservant who served her saw her sighing again and shook her head helplessly: "It's no use sighing all the time. The prince ordered the whole mansion to keep it a secret from the princess. As people in the prince's mansion, we can't do anything but obey orders."
Lian'er nodded: "I know all that you're saying, but the princess came from so far away and thought she had found her ideal husband, but she never expected that her husband would go to such lengths to deceive her."
"Alright, stop talking. If the prince finds out, you'll be dead."
Lian'er lowered her head and wisely shut her mouth, saying no more.
The Eastern Palace.
The candlelight was dim, and the person on the bed was sleeping peacefully with her eyes closed. Occasionally, the candlelight crackled, causing her to furrow her brow slightly, indicating that she was a light sleeper.
With a bang.
The door was suddenly kicked open.
Su Yunyan trembled slightly, slowly opened her eyes, bit her lower lip, resignedly sat up, and called out, "Your Highness."
She couldn't remember how many times he had suddenly barged in late at night, reeking of alcohol, berating her for this and that until dawn.
"You, come here. I haven't gone to bed yet, how come you're already asleep?"
Su Yunyan walked over and reached out to help him, but he waved her hand and pushed her aside: "Go, write the report I will submit tomorrow."
Ever since he learned that Su Yunyan was a good writer, he had her write several memorials for him. If they were well written, he would receive more rewards; if they were poorly written, he would inevitably be punished.
Su Yunyan rubbed her temples, trying to cheer herself up, and said helplessly, "Yes."
A sudden gust of wind swept away the bright sun, and time flew by in the west. Half a month later, it would be the Empress's birthday. The entire palace was filled with joy, and the Yaohua Pool was filled with invitations from princes and nobles.
On the palace road, Lanxi abandoned the carriage and strolled towards Yaohua Pool.
Mu Anxiang lifted the carriage curtain and glanced at her, rolling his eyes in anger: "You shameless woman, you must have taken a fancy to some guard again."
Sure enough, Lanxi's eyes lit up after she had only taken a few steps.
"Yo yo yo, little brother."
Lanxi ran over and looked up at him, asking, "Little brother, how old are you this year? Are you married?"
The guard, his face flushed, took a step back and bumped into the palace wall: "Your Highness, please have some self-respect."
Lanxi's beautiful brows furrowed together, and she said with great concern, "Oh dear, little brother, did you hurt yourself? How could you be so careless? Shall I take a look?" As she spoke, she was about to take action.
The guard was so frightened that his face turned pale, and he could barely speak: "No...no, no, no, no need, Your Highness, please have some self-respect."
Hearing this, Mu Anxiang, who had somehow appeared behind her, turned green with anger: "Well, Lanxi, I hit my head and bled for three days straight, and you didn't even glance at me. But you're so distressed that a guard just got hit by the palace wall?"
"Lanxi!"
Mu Anxiang could no longer contain himself and roared out in anger.
Lan Xi bit her lower lip, put her hands on her hips, and narrowed her eyes, intending to have a good talk with him. Unexpectedly, Mu Anxiang suddenly hoisted her onto his shoulder, and after a dizzying moment, she was filled with rage:
"You bastard, put me down right now!"
"Mu Anxiang, do you really want peace of mind?"
"Damn it, I'll count to three! One! Two!"
Bang.
Mu Anxiang threw Lanxi onto the carriage without any pity and sat down to the side with a livid face.
Lanxi scrambled to her feet and reached out to grab Mu Anxiang's neck: "Bastard!"
Mu Anxiang stretched out his large hands, easily grasped both of her wrists, and then pulled hard, causing Lan Xi to fall onto him. Just as she was about to get up, she heard Mu Anxiang say:
"You can cause as much trouble as you want back home, but this is the imperial palace. I won't be responsible if you lose your head!"
Lanxi was stunned for a moment: Is this how he shows concern for me?
But the next second, Mu Anxiang said in a low voice, "There is one more thing. I want to take a concubine."
Lanxi took a deep breath, her lips curving upwards inch by inch, and bit down hard on Mu Anxiang's waist.
"Aww~~~"
Inside the carriage, a surprisingly peaceful howl suddenly rang out from Mu Anxiang.
Yan Mufeng, who was in the carriage next door, couldn't help but smile and ask, "What new tricks is the Sixth Prince up to now?"
Sitting next to her, Mu Anwen stared at her blankly, then lowered his head and chuckled softly, murmuring, "She's quite cute when she smiles."
