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 possibly like him?
His mood suddenly became clear, 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.
The night breeze was blowing, bringing a hint of coolness, and the fragrance of lotus was smelling, which was refreshing. They were intoxicated by it and felt 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 title of Consort Xian, and the Third Prince has been taken back from Consort Ming."
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 originally sitting listlessly on the couch, froze when he heard this. Before he could react, he was dazed with dull eyes, like a puppet.
Then, as if waking from a dream, he asked in disbelief, "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 dancing with joy, and she was completely immersed in joy.
An Jinyan's eyes darkened, her pupils suddenly contracted, and a hint of ruthlessness flashed in her eyes. Sure enough, it was this woman who framed her.
Haha, after framing her, he even had the audacity to ask her to join forces against the Queen. Is she that stupid?
Don’t they 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 lips.
Then her face instantly glowed and she slowly stood up from the couch.
"Help me change my clothes. I'm 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 in the sedan chair that only the mistress of a palace could sit in. She rested her hands on the armrests, her fingers slightly bent, her eyes full of arrogance, her gaze straight ahead, 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 disgust, 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.
She drooped her whole body, her eyes were empty and lifeless, her gaze was dull, she didn't understand why in an instant she had fallen from the high and mighty Empress Xiurong, 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 reinstated, 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 jerked sideways and her body shook violently, almost causing her to fall to the ground.
"What grudge do I have against you that you want to frame me?"
"Because of your frame-up, Bai Zhi, the personal maid I brought from the palace, died. Even slapping you in the face can't alleviate 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 in her life."
An Jinyan felt a pang of pain in her heart when she thought of Bai Zhi being executed tragically for saving her.
Although An Jinyan did not have much sincerity towards these servants and would abandon them without hesitation when her life was 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 to deal with the queen without even considering 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, but are you really willing to always be inferior to others? 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!
An Jinyan, however, was dismissive, with the corners of his mouth raised in a sarcastic smile.
"So what if I'm inferior to others? I'm a wise man who knows the times. What you're doing isn't courage, it's moths flying into a flame."
Then An Jinyan turned around and ordered, "Bai Lan, send a eunuch to slap Xu Shu Ren twenty times a day. Let her reflect on her mistakes. Since she is in the cold palace, she doesn't need to eat well or wear nice clothes."
"Xianfei! You are a villain! Even if I am in 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 looked 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 roaring in despair behind her.
