Chapter 3: Take it slow

Just when Jiang Jiang was thinking about whether to run away, Yan Huaishu suddenly spoke abruptly, making her tremble.

The main hall fell into an eerie silence because of her reaction.

The suffocating atmosphere made Jiang Jiang stiff and at a loss. She choked out a breath and nodded, "It seems like she's suffering from heatstroke. It's uncomfortable."

The little queen looked pitiful and harmless, as if all her thoughts were written on her face. Yan Huaishu suddenly realized that he actually suspected that she had ulterior motives for her actions in the imperial garden. She really thought too much.

But she suffered from heatstroke in early summer... The little queen was very good at telling lies and she didn't blush at all.

Yan Huaishu pursed his lower lip, lowered his eyes to collect his thoughts, and said in a low voice, "If your mother is not feeling well, you can go back to Fengqi Palace first, and I will tell my father."

Jiang Jiang was stunned when she heard this, and then quickly suppressed the joy that was about to overflow in her eyes, "Ahem, thank you, Prince. I will take my leave now."

After saying that, he picked up the corner of his skirt and left without looking back. His quick steps seemed like there was a wolf chasing behind him.

In the evening, while Jiang Jiang was having dinner, she heard the news about the fifth princess from the Immortal Pavilion. It seemed that she accidentally fell into the water, but actually one Zhaoyi was involved.

Yue Ya sighed endlessly, "Song Zhaoyi is usually shy and quiet, but he didn't expect to be so evil-minded that he actually sent people to the Immortal Pavilion to harm the fifth princess."

"The fifth princess is usually well-behaved, sensible and lovable, but now she has a high fever and is in coma. It makes me sad just thinking about it."

Jiang Jiang's chewing movements slowed down, and the light in her eyes dimmed slightly.

I used to enjoy watching the drama, but now that I am in it, I realize that every flower and grass here is real, and the conspiracies and conspiracies are also real.

She thought about why she was safe and sound when she was sitting in the most honorable position in the harem. It was probably because she had not even held a ceremony to be crowned queen, so she could not pose a threat if she did not hold the throne.

Yue Ya was still mumbling, "Song Zhaoyi is very favored by the emperor these days. I'm afraid he will be gone after tonight and the tea will be cold."

"Crescent moon, stop talking." The delicious food was as chewy as wax, Jiang Jiang completely lost her appetite, put down her chopsticks and walked to the bedroom.

"It's getting dark. After washing, it's time to go to bed."

Several days passed, and Jiang Jiang never left Fengqi Palace. She canceled all the concubines' daily greetings. It was not until she got her broken mentality in order that she packed up and got ready to go out.

Well, the main reason is that the birthday of Concubine Wen, who holds half of the phoenix seal, has arrived. Jiang Jiang has to put down the storybook in her hand and go to give birthday gifts to people.

After getting on the phoenix chariot, Jiang Jiang suddenly remembered something and whispered cautiously, "Yueya, are the books in my box well hidden?"

Those were the treasures she had managed to get into the palace...ahem, ahem, there were two or three books in them that were not suitable for children, and they were very vivid and exciting.

Seeing Yue Ya nodding heavily, Jiang Jiang felt at ease.

On the long palace road, the phoenix chariot that was traveling suddenly stopped halfway. The next moment the palace attendant was a little confused and said, "Queen, the wheel of the chariot is stuck in the crack of the stone slab."

Jiang Jiang looked confused. This was the palace. How could something like a wheel get stuck on the flat palace road? This is unscientific!

The crescent moon went down and took a look, then turned back and said helplessly to Jiang Jiang, "Queen, please wait a moment, I will ask someone to repair it right now."

Jiang Jiang got out of the sedan chair curiously, "Can't we push it out together?"

She didn't have so many scruples. She pushed aside the palace man and squatted down, getting close to the wheel and studying it for a long time.

Gee, the location of the card is really tricky.

"Let's walk over there. We're halfway there anyway, not far."

The birthday gift was delivered early in the morning, and I didn't know when it would be until someone arrived. Jiang Jiang didn't have the habit of being late.

Seeing that the little queen was already walking forward, Yue Ya left two people behind to repair the phoenix chariot, and then led other palace people to catch up with Jiang Jiang.

The birthday banquet was held in Huayue Hall, and the sun was at its strongest right now. Jiang Jiang wiped her sweat and encouraged herself secretly.

There are still two palace walls, which are only ten minutes away. Come on!

After walking two steps, Jiang Jiang wiped away the beads of sweat that rolled down to the tip of her nose, and angrily hammered the palace wall. Why is the palace so big? The phoenix robe is so thick. By the time she reaches the place, she will probably be all over her body.

It all stinks.

Jiang Jiang was wilting when she suddenly heard the jingling of palace bells coming from behind her. It was clear and sweet. She turned her head when she heard the sound and saw the prince's sedan chair slowly stopping in front of her.

Yan Huaishu narrowed his sword eyebrows slightly as he took in all the clear figures in front of his eyes, "Why doesn't the queen travel by phoenix chariot?"

No matter how poor the little queen is, she will not even have a phoenix chariot to travel.

"I got stuck halfway." Jiang Jiang smiled awkwardly, trying to maintain her shaky queen's dignity, "I want to exercise, so I decided to walk here."

"..."

Yan Huaishu subconsciously glanced at the blazing sun in the sky and pondered for a moment, "The Queen Mother, please walk slowly. Walking too fast may cause you to suffer from heatstroke. I will convey a message to the Imperial Concubine for you when I arrive at the Huale Hall."

"ah?"

Jiang Jiang opened her eyes suddenly, in disbelief.

She thought he stopped to give her a ride!

The ringing of the palace bell was clear and sweet, and it was really pleasant to hear. Jiang Jiang looked at the chariot and sedan chair that was getting further and further away, and after being confused, she gritted her teeth in anger.

He really left. Why did he stop the car and ask her if she was going to play if he didn't want to take someone with him?

Jiang Jiang took several deep breaths and calmed down. She couldn't beat the prince...

"Crescent Moon, let's go."

Outside the Huale Hall, the palace people sang and shouted, "The Queen has arrived," and there was a strange silence in the hall for a moment.

Yan Huaishu was sitting in the left hall with the princes. He heard a few chuckles coming from the right hall, followed by scattered and casual greetings from the beauties in the harem, and a hint of displeasure flashed in his deep eyes.

He had heard that his father married the little queen, and there was nothing more than an imperial edict to announce her entry into the palace. But the little queen was a queen after all. How could the noble master of the middle palace be despised and teased by his concubines, and regard the palace rules and ancestral precepts as nothing?

?

When the banquet began, music was playing, and singing and dancing were everywhere. The majestic old emperor sat next to Jiang Jiang, and the calm and handsome prince was on the lower left side.

Looking at the concubines with different temperaments and the outstanding-looking princes and princesses below, Jiang Jiang couldn't help but click her tongue.

The whole family in the palace is full of beauties. Today is a real feast for the eyes.
