Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

“Let go of me, let go of me…”

When she was caught, Princess Consort Meng struggled desperately, but those brought by Ye Xiao didn’t pay her any mind.

At this moment, Princess Consort Meng shouted at Jiang Peihuan, “Jiang

Peihuan, dare you lay a hand on me? Do you want to defy your superior? Aren’t you afraid that the Jiang family will be implicated because of you?”

“Princess Consort, it is you who are defying your superior, not me,” Jiang Peihuan interrupted before Princess Consort Meng could finish.

Afterward, Jiang Peihuan didn’t give her another glance.

Just then, hurried footsteps were heard from outside. Jiang Peihuan’s expression changed instantly.

The sound of uniform footsteps reached her ears.

Soon, she saw a group of soldiers marching towards her, their eyes cold.

Clearly, they were foes, not friends.

Then a man wearing a purple-gold crown appeared.

It was Prince Rui.

Upon seeing Jiang Peihuan, his eyes filled with excitement.

He seemed to notice no one else and directly ordered the people beside him, “Quickly, capture Queen Cheng.”

As Prince Rui’s words fell, the soldiers immediately moved forward.

But at this moment, the Empress shouted coldly, “Stop!”

“Prince Rui, what are you trying to do?”

Seeing the Empress, Prince Rui frowned but still stepped forward to bow, “Your son pays his respects, Imperial Mother.”

Though he bowed, the look he gave the Empress held not an ounce of respect.

After his bow, before the Empress could speak, Prince Rui said, “Imperial Mother, 1 just want to take Jiang Peihuan away. Do not interfere in matters that don’t concern you.”

“And what if 1 choose to interfere?”

As the words of Prince Rui ended, the Empress spoke immediately.

Stepping forward, she stared at Prince Rui, “Would you dare kill me?”

“Heh…”

Hearing the Empress’s words, Prince Rui let out a cold chuckle as if hearing a pleasant joke. Though a faint smile lingered on his face, his eyes were filled with gloom and mockery.

Staring coldly at the Empress, Prince Rui whispered, “Since you refuse the toast, Imperial mother, please don’t blame me.”

With that, he commanded, “Spare only Queen Cheng. Kill the rest!”

“Prince Rui, the Empress is your imperial mother. How dare you?”

“Once 1 ascend to the throne, none of this will matter.”

“Attack!”

“Ye Xiao, protect the Empress.”

Seeing the soldiers rushing in, Jiang Peihuan quickly turned to Ye Xiao.

Worry filled Ye Xiao’s eyes, but he positioned himself in front of the Empress.

All eyes were on the Empress and Jiang Peihuan. No one noticed Princess Consort Meng.

Taking this opportunity, Princess Consort Meng slipped away from the Kun Ning Palace.

“Empress, follow me!”

Seeing more soldiers pouring in, Jiang Peihuan grabbed the Empress’s hand and ran towards the back of the palace.

As she ran, Jiang Peihuan felt a slight pain in her abdomen, but she couldn’t care less now.

“Jiang Peihuan, where do you think you can escape to today?”

Prince Rui’s voice echoed in her ears. Then, a cold breeze brushed past Jiang Peihuan’s ear. Instinctively, she pushed the Empress away.

A long sword thrust past her. freew(e)bnove(l)

Jiang Peihuan drew out a whip and lashed back.

Princess Rui, holding a long sword, stared intently at Jiang Peihuan.

Jiang Peihuan wanted to strike first, but a sharp pain from her abdomen made her instinctively cover her stomach.

“Huan Er?”

The Empress, witnessing this, hastily grasped Jiang Peihuan’s hand.

Upon seeing this, Princess’s eyes flashed surprise. Still, he coldly said, “Jiang

Peihuan, now you can no longer… ugh…”

Before Rui Wang could finish, he felt a sharp pain in his shoulder.

He instinctively turned around to see Xiao Nanye rushing towards him.

Desperation filled Xiao Nanye’s eyes as he ran with Han Feng.

“Huan Er?”

Reaching the Empress’s side, Xiao Nanye immediately embraced Jiang

Peihuan, who at this point looked extremely pale.

But upon seeing Xiao Nanye, she managed a weak smile, “Xiao Nanye, I…”

“Huan Er?”

Before Jiang Peihuan could finish, she blacked out.

Witnessing this, Xiao Nanye was consumed with worry. He continuously called out to the unconscious Jiang Peihuan, but she showed no response.

“Nanye, quickly take Huan Er to the chamber and summon the imperial doctor.”

Hearing the Empress’s command, Xiao Nanye cradled Jiang Peihuan.

Soon after, Ye Xiao approached.

After checking Jiang Peihuan’s pulse, Ye Xiao informed Xiao Nanye, “The queen is overly fatigued and has disturbed her fetal energy. She needs proper rest.” While speaking, Ye Xiao gave Jiang Peihuan another acupuncture treatment and changed the bandage on her arm.

Seeing Jiang Peihuan’s injury, Xiao Nanye’s eyes darkened, “Who caused this injury to the queen?”

“After you and the Great General entered the palace, the general’s mansion was surrounded. The queen and the third young master defended the entrance, and those people set the mansion on fire.”

“The queen was injured while protecting the people inside,” Ye Xiao whispered.

Although Ye Xiao’s words were brief, Xiao Nanye could clearly sense the severity of the situation.

Observing the unconscious Jiang Peihuan, Xiao Nanye quietly asked, “Where are the old madam and the others?”

“The queen asked the old madam, the second and third madams, and the young master to escape through a secret tunnel,” Ye Xiao replied.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Nanye turned to Han Feng, “Notify the young general to rendezvous with them.”

“Yes.”

“Master, what about the Emperor?”

“No need to worry. Aren’t all the princes here?”

Xiao Nanye’s words contained a hint of sarcasm.

Seeing this, Han Feng chose not to say more and promptly left.

Jiang Changbai continued to assist the princes in repelling the invaders. After hearing Han Feng’s words, he immediately left the palace.

Upon leaving, Jiang Changbai headed to the suburbs, knowing the location of the general’s mansion’s secret passage.

In the suburbs of the capital:

A child’s crying emanated from a carriage. Hearing the cries, Zhou Rongfang became increasingly anxious.

Seeing this, Liu Xin asked, “Second Madam, did the nanny come with us?”

Zhou Rongfang shook her head in response.

After a moment, Liu Xin instructed someone outside, “Get some warm water.”

After making these arrangements, Liu Xin turned to the Jiang family, “Let the young master drink some warm water first. Once we stop, we’ll find some food for him..”
