this concubine here to bestow gifts. Now, this concubine has been spoken to so rudely by a Fourth Prince. If this is the emperor's gift to this concubine, then this concubine humbly declines."After s...Seeing An Xuetang just standing there in a daze, Yun Yi arched his hand and said, "Your Highness, are you still going in"

An Xuetang came to her senses, gave a slight nod, and then walked inside.

The flowers and Hong er heard the sound and looked up. Seeing it was An Xue Tang, they quickly stood up and bowed.

An Xuetang waived the greeting and then asked Huaduo to raise her head. Seeing the obvious handprint on her face and her slightly pursed lips, An Xuetang's expression softened.

An Xue Tang walked to the table and sat down, her deep eyes lifting to look at Hua Duo'er, "Sit."

"I have something to tell you, sit down."

An Xuetang's words were stiff, leaving Hua Duo no room to refuse.

Hong'er, who was standing beside them, stole a glance at An Xuetang. She was just a little curious—how could this princess of Beijiang call herself "I" in front of them

Shouldn't it be "Your Majesty" instead

Just as Hong'er was curious, An Xue Tang's cold eyes suddenly looked over, scaring Hong'er into quickly lowering her head.

An Xuetang knew someone was watching her, she looked over just to scare her, but the girl only glanced at her and her legs started trembling

She sighed helplessly in her heart, then looked at Huahua who had already sat down, "I heard."

“!” The flower suddenly looked at her, with a hint of shock in her eyes.

An Xuetang didn't want to beat around the bush and continued nonchalantly, "But I don't regret hitting you. No matter who it was today, I would have hit them."

The flower bud bowed her head in guilt and said meekly, "Little girl understands. The Princess of Beijang only did it for the Prince. Little girl's beating was self-inflicted."

But when she saw Mo Junyi's face, which was so similar to Mo Yunchen's, the love in her eyes could no longer be controlled. That person had lived in her heart for so many years, and over the years his face would almost always appear within her ability. Now that she saw Mo Junyi, how could she bear it

An Xuetang fell silent for a moment, then said, "Now that things have come to this, I think we should have an honest conversation. Tell me, how did you meet the former crown prince"

When she thought of that man, Huāduǒ's entire demeanor softened. When talking about him, the corners of her mouth would unconsciously curl into a sweet smile.

More than a decade ago, Mo Yunchen once disguised himself and came to Beijang. At that time, Mo Yunchen knew that his father was going to abandon Mo Yunjing in this desolate land to fend for himself. Unable to bear it, Mo Yunchen came here first to pave the way for Mo Yunjing.

Back then, the Northern Border and Lan Nation almost engaged in warfare every year. This place was the most dangerous for the Heavenly Domination Nation, so the Emperor, wanting to avoid Mo Yun Jing, sent him here, not caring if he lived or died.

Mo Yuncheng cherished his younger brother, but he couldn't stop the emperor's decision. So, he could only come to Beijang to help him resolve those potential dangers. He was afraid that after his arrival in Beijang, he would be bullied or tricked by others.

Coincidentally, the whereabouts of Mo Yunchen, who was then the crown prince, traveling to Beijang were also leaked somehow.

He had just arrived in Beijang when he was hunted down. All his attendants died protecting him, so Mo Yunchen had to hide from the assassins alone.

I don't know how Mo Yunchen dodged it, but he managed to hide all the way to Lan Country.

At a very critical moment, it was Huaduo'er's people who saved him.

After saving the severely injured Mo Yunchen, Huaduo had him secretly transported back to her residence. At that time, she was deeply favored by the former emperor of Lan Guo and was given the title of County Princess along with her own County Princess's Mansion.

Mo Yunchen stayed at Huadoer's princess mansion to recuperate for over a month.

Mo Yunchen is an exceptionally excellent man. He is not only handsome and graceful, but also talented and virtuous!

Over this past month, Huāduǒ had fallen deeply in love with the man. But who knew that one day, the man would suddenly tell her that he had to return to his place.

Right before he left, he told Huāduò that he was actually the Crown Prince of Tiānbà Country—Mò Yún Chén.

Knowing that the Tianba Kingdom and the Lan Kingdom were at odds, Huāduō'er knew that she and this outstanding man would never be possible in this lifetime.

After he left, she shut herself in her room day and night, drawing every little detail of their time together.

Later, she would also proactively ask her father, who was the generalissimo of the country, about the situation in Tianba Kingdom.

She even held out hope, the hope of a union between the two nations!

But until the previous emperor passed away and Lan Chu ascended the throne, her father was secretly executed by Lan Chu... she never got to see that hope.

After her father's death, she should have been executed as the only daughter of the General Hua, but Lan Chu Rong was good and... beautiful!

Lan Churon had his eyes on her a long time ago, but he couldn't have her because the former emperor refused to grant him a marriage.

Since the previous emperor has passed away and the only one who could protect her father was executed, how could Lan Churon not keep her by his side

So, she was trapped in Lan Churon's harem, but he refused to give her a title. He imprisoned her in a small courtyard within the palace, coming to 'favor' and torment her whenever he pleased.

This time, leading troops into battle, I don't know why Lan Churon wanted to keep her by his side. Before he was captured, Lan Churon had someone send her away, asking her to tell the King of Beijiang those words.

This also gave Huāduǒ a chance to be reborn. She had never thought she could escape from Lán Chǔróng's clutches in her lifetime.

After hearing the story of the flower, An Xue Tang tapped her right hand lightly on the table as if pondering something, then asked, "You've also lived in the deep palace, you should know how deep and treacherous the water is in this imperial court. Now that you're taking the initiative to wade into it, is it worth it"

"Hua Duo'er let out a wry smile, "A person like me... if I don't find something meaningful to do, Your Highness thinks I would still have any need to live"

Without a home, without family, Huāduǒ'er no longer knows what meaning there is to her life.

An Xuetang fell silent. She put herself in his shoes and thought, if the man she loved was in trouble or danger, even if she knew that place was a den of vipers, she would still go in, right

Women... perhaps they all like to get caught up in emotions,

Thus thinking, An Xue Tang no longer said anything to dissuade her, only opening her mouth to speak:

"Thank you very much for your sacrifice. Zilong misunderstands you because he doesn't know your intentions, and I will explain it to him well. However... Please try to control your emotions in the future. Zilong is not the prince, he's still young. When you look at him with that kind of gaze, it will trouble him."

The little flower stood up and quickly bowed, "Yes, this little girl remembers."

"Sit down first. In my presence, you may address me as 'I'. After all, you are a princess of Lan."

An Xuetang had already noticed that this flower sometimes subconsciously used "I" when it spoke. It was probably just a habit, after all, her identity wasn't low either.

Although An Xue Tang agreed to her entering the palace, there was still a very important issue at hand. "You are already the woman of Lan Chu Rong and no longer a virgin. Have you thought about how to enter the palace You should know that every maiden who enters the palace will be examined."ut there was no one there this time.Where is her Ah JingShe was still a little dazed, but suddenly opened her eyes and turned her head. Sure enough, Mo Yun Jing's figure was gone. She sat up abruptly,...
