"Young Miss, this is bad.
Young, young, young miss!" A palace maid in green clothes stumbled into a simple house.
Just as she stepped through the door, she was hurriedly pulled aside."Shh, quiet down.
Miss just finished copying the scripture and went to sleep.
Don't wake her up," the older Queen Gong Hao said in a low voice.
The green-robed palace maid peeked out to take a look.
There was a person lying on the rocking chair under the violet flower rack in the room.
She was dressed in a long, bright yellow dress, with her black hair draped over her shoulders like a waterfall.
Her figure was wobbly and graceful, and her brows were slightly furrowed, carrying a hint of fatigue.The palace maid pouted a little angrily and complained, "Aunt Min, ever since Madam left, Miss seemed to have changed into another person and didn't care about anything."Now, even those inferior palace maids are bullying us.
""But Zizhu's back?" A soft voice came from the courtyard.
The two of them exchanged a glance and slowly walked in.
The person on the rocking chair had already woken up, and there was a faint smile on his face.
Yuemin immediately handed her a cup of warm tea."Zi Zhu, it's been half a day since you left.
Where did you go to slack off?" She teased as she drank tea.After being reminded by his master, Zizhu suddenly remembered, and his expression became somewhat nervous, "Miss, you have wronged Zizhu.
Zizhu went to scout for information on your behalf.
This time, during the war between the Feathered and the Undead Kingdoms, he suffered a disastrous defeat.
His Majesty was forced to agree to the request for a marriage alliance with the UnYang Kingdom.
It was precisely because of this that he had a headache about who to marry."...""What does this have to do with me?""Aside from handing over the city and the gold and silver, I'll have to choose a woman who's engaged in the royal clan to bestow it to the current emperor of the Yang dynasty.After hearing that, the beautiful female's expression became somewhat solemn.
She looked around the seemingly old place and thought that she had lived in this place since she was born.
Although this place was known as the Warden Pavilion, it was more appropriate to call it the Cold Palace and her identity was even more taboo.
Other than a few palace servants, no one knew that she existed in this deep palace.She seemed to be useless.
Under his guidance, her chess, poetry, poetry, and songs were no less than any prince's.Yuemin looked at his Little Lord, who was a little distracted.
He softly called out, "Miss?""Hmm?" After snapping back to reality and receiving their inquisitive gazes, he smiled and said, "Yuemin, Zizhu, I know what you're all worried about.
I've heard that the emperor of the State of Wei Yang is cruel and heartless, and those who have been sent to Wei Yang won't be able to live long.
Besides, the empress dotes on the little princess so much that she can't bear to marry her far away.The number of unmarried people in the royal family can be counted on one's fingers, but the result can be imagined.""That's right.
Besides, the empress keeps staring at us.
This time.
" Before Yue Min could finish her sentence, a sharp voice sounded, "The empress' decree has arrived.
"The three of them glanced at each other.
"Caocao." Caocao arrived.
A man dressed in a fourth rank official uniform stepped into the greenhouses.
Behind him were several guards, ready to forcefully escort him away.
The three of them immediately knelt down upon seeing him.An Du tugged his tongue and said, "The empress has decreed that Miss Xuan Qinglan will meet you.""Qinglan receives the imperial edict." Qinglan kowtowed.Andou smiled coyly.
"Miss has been living here for 15 years.
You've finally made it out of it.
Congratulations."Yuemin helped Qinglan up and waited for him to steady himself.
Then, he said to An Da, "Eunuch An, please rest for a moment.
Please allow Qinglan to change his clothes."After receiving permission, Qinglan entered the room.After entering the room and closing the door, Zizhu began to defend Qinglan.
"Why should I?
Miss, you're also a princess.
How could the empress go overboard like this?
If it weren't for her..."Yuemin quickly covered her mouth and glanced at An Du, who was leisurely drinking tea in the courtyard.
"Zizhu, are you trying to kill my little master?"After she had calmed down, she picked out a lilac skirt from the closet and changed it for Qinglan.
Her pale face was slightly bloodshot, and the purple bamboo was coiling up her hair.Qinglan looked at himself in the mirror and sighed, "Zizhu, you know that niangqin was originally a dancer offered by a neighboring country to the Feather Country.
During the dance, she was favored by father, but a moment of favor made her walk on the road of no return.
She drew the concubines' envy and the mechanisms were exhausted.
In order to protect herself, niangqin took the initiative to move to the warm pavilion.
She swore that she wouldn't take even half a step forward.Qinglan sneered, "Even though I'm my father's daughter, I'm still inferior to a palace maid.
How can I be considered a princess?""..."He turned around and grabbed her hand.
"Now that mother has left, our situation is even more difficult.
When you reach the empress, you still have no manners.
At that time, no one will be able to protect you.
If you continue to act so recklessly, I will send you to the clothes bureau.
I will never leave a hidden danger by my side.
Do you understand?"Zi Zhu was stunned.
After a long time, she nodded in agreement.
The three of them began to tidy up and cover up Qing Lan's beautiful features.
They wouldn't be too outstanding, so as to avoid the empress' suspicions."An Gonggong has been waiting for a long time."An Du looked Qinglan up and down, then nodded and said, "Not bad, not bad.
Miss, follow me."Looking at the look on An Du's face, Zizhu muttered softly, "Dogs that rely on human power."Yuemin hurriedly pulled her back.
"What happened to you today?
You really want to go to Raccoon Bureau?"Zizhu knew that he had done something wrong.
He suppressed the injustice in his heart and stopped talking.A group of people walked around the side courtyard and headed towards the main hall of the Empress.
After a long time, they arrived at the Empress's chambers.
An Du motioned for them to wait in front of the hall and he entered to pass a message.At this moment, the empress and the young princess were playing chess in the hall.
When she saw Andou enter, she asked, "Did she come?""Yes, I'm waiting in front of the hall."The empress touched Bai Yu's chess piece in her hand.
With one move, she lost the entire plate.Qingluan was somewhat vexed.
"Mother, can't you just let Qingluan go?" She had lost ten rounds in a row.
She had lost so much that she no longer had the desire to play chess."You little brat, you don't know how to train yourself.
It's your fault that mother didn't allow you to do so.
Oh, you..." He patted Qing Chen's nose dotingly and smiled as he ordered his men to put away the chessboard and lead the Qing Chen into the annex hall.
Seeing this, An Du immediately led Qinglan into the hall.Qinglan walked in lightly.
He knelt down and bowed.
The way he kowtowed was flawless.
"Qinglan greets the Empress.
The Empress is extremely blessed."The empress wasn't in a hurry to ask her to get up.
She carefully examined Qinglan.
This caused Qingluan to be a little bothered.
He looked at the woman in a scholarly dress, and her appearance was simple and elegant.
The word 'green' began with the word 'same' as hers.
However, she had never seen this person in the palace before.A moment later, the empress finally spoke up.
"Raise your head and let me take a look." Qinglan raised his head, his gaze still fixed on the ground.
The empress was extremely satisfied.

She nodded and smiled, "Not bad, not bad.
I haven't seen you in several years, and you've grown taller and taller.
There are some similarities between your eyebrows.
How old are you this year?""Fifteen.""Mm, remember that you are a little older than Chen'er." She held her daughter's hand and combed the hair by her ear, seemingly indifferent, "Do you know what I called you here for today?""Qinglan is stupid.
I don't know why Your Ladyship called me.
I hope Your Ladyship can give me some pointers.""Stupid?
Hmph, the Feathered Kingdom lost in battle and made a loss.
They need to select several beauties and send them to the ruler of the State of Weiyang.
They also need a princess to marry them.
I know that your mother has just passed away, so you shouldn't have been like this.
But you're not young anymore, and you're unmarried.
You don't have anyone to help you.
Staying in the imperial harem for so long isn't a long-term thing.
So, I decided to let you marry to the emperor of the State of Weiyang.
What do you think?"Qinglan shivered and looked at the Empress in panic.
He saw the killing intent and coldness in her eyes.
Behind her, An Du still had three things in his hand.
Was he trying to threaten her?Qinglan knew that the path in front of him was either to get married or to die.
He thought that he couldn't die yet.
She was someone who cherished her life, so she had no choice but to kowtow and thank him.
"Qinglan is lonely and helpless.
It is Qinglan's fortune that the empress was able to make decisions for Qinglan today.""It's good that you know.
In that case, you should go back and prepare well.
I will naturally inform the Emperor clearly." Seeing Qinglan's haughty attitude, the Empress became somewhat impatient and dismissed them.Before leaving, Qinglan suddenly remembered something.
"Your highness, before Qinglan leaves, may I personally bid farewell to His Majesty?""Presumptuous.
Did His Majesty say we'll meet as soon as we meet?
You go back first, BenGong will let An Du arrange it.
You can just wait in the Warm Pavilion."Qinglan was a little disappointed.
He bowed slightly and said, "Thank you, Your Grace, for your kindness.
Qinglan kneels." He brought Yue Min and Purple Bamboo back to the greenhouses.Qingluan stared at her as she walked away.
He was curious as to who her first sister was.
"Mother, who is she?
I've never seen her before.
Her looks seem plain, but they're very interesting.
She really isn't simple.""It's still better if you don't see her.
She's the child that your father and the dancer gave birth to, Qinglan.
Allowing her to live till now is already a show of her kindness and kindness.
It's you, Yu'er.
Mother asked her to marry into the State of Weiyang in your stead.
You have to blame Mother for that."Qingluan had heard about the incident with the dancers, and could understand why his mother's attitude towards Qinglan was so disgusted.
"Mother, why would Qingluan blame you?
I haven't had time to thank you yet.
It's said that the emperor of the State of UnYang has a cruel nature, and you're willing to let your daughter suffer so much.
Besides, I also want to spend more time with my mother, so I don't want to get married so early."..."The Empress smiled and hugged Qing Luan.
"It's best that you understand.
In the future, Mother will definitely find a good son-in-law for you!""Mother!" Qingluan called out shyly.On the way back to the Warm Pavilion, Qinglan didn't say a single word.
It was a worrying sight."Little Lord, I heard that the ruler of the State of Wei Yang is decisive and ruthless.
Are you really going to marry him?""Marry and not marry.
Do I have any other choice?
The empress has always viewed me as a thorn in her eyes and wants to be dealt with quickly.
Besides, Anhao has been holding a bottle of poisonous white silk wine by her side.
Do I have any other choice?
She has left me alive to marry Weiyang.
Why would she not do it?"."Marry and not marry.
Do I have any other choice?
The Empress has always regarded me as a thorn in the flesh and wants to be dealt with quickly.
Moreover, An was holding the white silk wine on the side just now.
Do I have any other choice?
Now that she has left me alive to marry Weiyang, why not do it?""Little Lord.
" She never thought that every time she went to the Empress's place, it would be so dangerous.Qinglan patted her hand and comforted her, "Don't worry.
I haven't returned my mother's suffering to them yet.
Why would I die first?""Young master, do you have any plans to get married this time?" Yuemin asked, looking worried.Qinglan glanced at her and shook his head.
"It's not necessarily a bad thing to leave.
It's a pity that niangqin can't watch me get married.""Miss, Madam is in the spirit of heaven and will definitely watch over Miss.
""It's all my fault for hurting her.
She shouldn't have suffered like this!" Qinglan's eyes were filled with sorrow.Yuemin hurriedly interrupted her wild thoughts.
"Little Lord, you must be tired.
It's the garden ahead.
Go rest for a bit." Looking at the time, he glanced at Zi Zhu and suggested.
It had been a long time since the three of them left the warm pavilion.It was just autumn, and the weather had become a little cool.
The hundred flowers in the garden were still blooming.
From afar, they could smell the osmanthus fragrance.
They walked away for the fragrance.
Unknowingly, they had reached the Blue Lake.
This was a forbidden region.
By the time Qinglan regained his senses, it was already too late.At this moment, the guards had already stopped them.
"Stop!""Presumptuous!
How dare you block our Little Lord's path?" Yuemin stood up.
The guards couldn't guess Qinglan's identity, so they didn't dare to stop him.
It was just too difficult for them to advance or retreat.Qinglan was just about to explain, "Who's causing such a ruckus here?" A bright-yellow man appeared in the pavilion, and Qinglan's heart suddenly rose to his throat.
That voice belonged to him, the person she yearned for from time to time.
She didn't dare raise her head, but her eyes glistened with tears.
