The stone that was pressing on Jun Zechen's heart seemed to have finally fallen a little. He was just an imperial physician, nothing special. How could Yaoyao like him?
His mood suddenly became brighter, as if the clouds had cleared and the sun had come out.
The two chatted and laughed sweetly, the breeze gently brushed across their faces, Jun Zechen's hearty laughter and Su Jingyao's crisp laughter intertwined.
They were intoxicated by the cool night breeze and the refreshing fragrance of lotus leaves, and were very happy.

Zhongcui Palace.
Bai Lan trotted into the side hall of Zhongcui Palace. Her steps were hurried and her breathing was a little disordered.
"Master, Master, great joy, His Majesty has restored your position as the virtuous concubine, and the third prince has also been brought back from the Ming concubine."
Bai Lan's voice was a little sharp because of excitement, her face was flushed with excitement, and her eyes were full of joy.
An Jinyan, who was sitting listlessly on the couch, stiffened when he heard this. Before he could react, he stood there in a daze with lifeless eyes, like a puppet.
Then he asked in disbelief, as if waking from a dream: "Really?"
Her voice trembled, as if she couldn't believe this sudden good news.
"Yes, Master, Xu Xiurong is the real murderer who poisoned Lady Chu. His Majesty has demoted her to a commoner and moved her to the cold palace."
Bai Lan said excitedly, her eyebrows beaming with joy, and her whole body was immersed in joy.
An Jinyan's eyes darkened, her pupils suddenly shrank, and a hint of ruthlessness flashed in her eyes. Sure enough, it was this woman who framed her.
Oh, after framing her, he even had the audacity to ask her to join forces against the Queen. Is she that stupid?
They don't even think about the fact that His Majesty has been doting on the Queen for two years. Not only did the Queen give birth to the eldest son, but she also gave birth to twins, a boy and a girl. What can they use to fight against the Queen?
An Jinyan thought to himself, with a sarcastic smile on his face.
Then her face suddenly glowed and she slowly got up from the couch.
"Change your clothes for me. I am going to the cold palace to take a good look at this bitch who framed me behind my back."
There was authority and impatience in her tone.
"Yes, master." Bai Lan responded and hurried to prepare.
A few months after being demoted to a concubine, An Jinyan once again sat on the sedan chair that only the master of a palace could sit in. She rested her hands on the armrests with her fingers slightly bent, her eyes full of arrogance, her gaze staring straight ahead with her chin slightly raised, showing her majesty.
When An Jinyan arrived at the cold palace, she frowned and looked at the environment of the cold palace with disdain, as if she was looking at a pile of garbage.
Then, under the trembling guidance of the cold palace maid, he went directly to Xu Shiying's palace.
Inside the cold palace, the tables and chairs were worn out, covered with traces of time and dust.
The hot weather made the hall seem even more depressing. The air seemed to be frozen, and there was a smell of decay in the air.
Xu Shiying was like a body without a soul, sitting decadently on a shabby stool in the cold palace.
Her whole body drooped, her eyes were empty and lifeless, her gaze was dull, she didn't understand why in the blink of an eye she had fallen from the high and mighty Empress Xiurong and the biological mother of the Sixth Prince to a desolate and abandoned woman in the cold palace.
"Hey, Xu Shuren, I'm here, why don't you come over and pay your respects?"
An Jinyan walked in with contempt and complacency on her face, her voice sharp and full of sarcasm.
Xu Shiying slowly raised her head and looked over. It was Concubine Xian. She had been restored to the throne, and her gorgeous palace dress had been changed back to the noble style that only the Four Concubines could wear. She held her head high and chest puffed out, looking majestic and extremely proud.
"Oh, now that I'm like this, do I still care whether I salute you or not?"
Xu Shiying sneered, her voice hoarse and weak.
An Jinyan's eyes turned cold instantly. She quickly walked up to Xu Shiying and slapped her in the face with all her strength.
The slap was so swift and powerful that Xu Shiying's head tilted sideways and her body even shook violently, almost causing her to fall to the ground.
"What grudge do I have against you? Why do you want to frame me?"
"Because of your frame-up, my personal maid Bai Zhi, who I brought from the palace, died. Even slapping you in the face cannot relieve the hatred in my heart."
An Jinyan's eyes were wide open and his teeth were chattering.
"Just live well in the cold palace. I will not let you die. I will let you experience the pain that Bai Zhi suffered before her death."
An Jinyan felt a pang of pain when she thought of Bai Zhi being executed and dying tragically for saving her.
Although An Jinyan did not have much sincerity towards these servants and would abandon them without hesitation when their lives were threatened, Bai Zhi grew up with her and they had a deep relationship. How could she not be moved by her tragic death?
It’s all because of this bitch. She dragged her into this trouble in order to deal with the queen. She doesn’t even look at her own character.
An Jinyan cursed in her heart. Her appearance was not the best in the harem, and her family background was even more ordinary. But just because she had the Sixth Prince, she wanted to deal with the Queen. It was really wishful thinking.
"Xianfei, you have such a good family background, are you really willing to be inferior to others forever? Since I have entered the harem, what's wrong with competing? It's just that I was one step behind and lost."
Xu Shiying's eyes were burning with anger and unwillingness.
If she had a background like Concubine Xian, every step wouldn't be so difficult for her!
An Jinyan, however, looked down on him, with the corners of his mouth raised in a sarcastic smile.
"So what if I am inferior to others? I am a wise man who knows the current situation. What you are doing is not courage, but a moth flying into a flame."
Then An Jinyan turned around and ordered, "Bai Lan, send a eunuch to slap Xu Shuren twenty times every day, so that she can reflect on her mistakes. Since she is in the cold palace, she doesn't have to eat well or wear nice clothes."
"Xianfei! You are a villain! Even if I am sent to the cold palace, I am still the prince's biological mother. How can you punish me with lynching?"
Xu Shiying was furious and looked at Concubine Xian with hatred.
An Jinyan bent down and leaned close to Xu Shiying's eyes, "What can you do to me?" she asked with full provocation.
After saying that, she straightened up, turned around proudly, and walked out of the cold palace without looking back, leaving Xu Shiying screaming in despair behind her.
