Now that Yan Mu is not in the capital, the emperor chose this opportunity.

Liu Yunxiang lowered her head and said nothing, and she was wrong now. Just like the emperor showed her attitude.

As the sun was heading west, the outside of the hall became cold. Liu Yunxiang knelt on the cold ground on his knees, but in just a moment, the coldness had spread throughout his body.

"Hmph, since you are so ignorant, just kneel here and reflect." After saying that, the emperor shook his sleeves and left.

After the emperor left, there were guards staring at him.

Zi Jin was originally outside the palace gate, so he sneaked in while the guard was not paying attention.

"Miss, it's cold outside, you're so distressed."

She had been in the coldest days, covered with ice and snow, and the cold wind was like a blade. She had already had cold teeth fighting.

If this continues, it will be too painful, and there is no need for it.

She turned her head slightly and whispered to Zijin: "You go and move a reinforcement."

"who?"

"Old Prince Shunping."

"Ah, is he willing?"

"There is an IOU left by Zhang Qi. Just take the IOU and ask him to pay off the debt."

Zi Jin went, and Liu Yunxiang let out a breath. The old prince was unwilling to help her, but she was not worried. After all, he owed her money. What she was worried about was that even if the old prince pleaded, the emperor would not forgive her.

Especially the matter of Yan Mu marrying Changning is related to the alliance between the two countries. The matter is very important. Even if Yan Mu is in the capital and the emperor bites him to death and asks him to marry Changning, he has no choice unless he really resists the order.

Liu Yunxiang frowned, but she was glad that Yan Mu was not here.

While she was thinking about how to resolve the crisis in front of her, she heard something moving on the steps. She looked up and saw two palace maids carrying a large basin of water, but walked to the steps. One seemed to accidentally stagger, and then a big one

The basin water poured down.

The water flowed down the steps and it would immediately flow to Liu Yunxiang's knees.

In this weather, water drips into ice. When it flows under her knees, not only will her clothes wet, but her knees will soon freeze onto the ice. Soon, her legs will be useless.

Liu Yunxiang frowned and was about to get up and move a little while Aunt Jiang next to the queen came out.

"Princess!" The Madam Jiang shouted, "The Queen kindly advised you, not only did you not appreciate it, but also made her faint. Now she is dizzy and short of breath and can't get up. Are you reflecting?"

Liu Yunxiang sighed, "I can't stand the kindness of the Empress."

"presumptuous!"

When the water flowed over, Liu Yunxiang stood up and looked at Madam Jiang coldly, "You are a slave, yelling in front of this princess, you are the one who is presumptuous!"

"You!" Madam Jiang pointed at Liu Yunxiang with a blue face, "The emperor asked you to kneel in front of Feifeng Palace to reflect. You dare to get up, you..."

Liu Yunxiang changed to a place without water and knelt down again, "The emperor asked the princess to kneel down and reflect, but he didn't say that he let the princess kneel in the water. And if you go in, I will ask the queen, she really hopes Yan Mu will marry her.

Changning, will it then get the support of Beijin?"

When Madam Jiang saw that although Liu Yunxiang was kneeling under the steps, she straightened her back. Her momentum was still sharp and still made people dare not refuse to obey.

When Madam Jiang entered, Liu Yunxiang bent down quietly and rubbed her knees with her hands.

The ground was too cold, and I knelt on it, as if dozens of ice needles were stabbing into my bones.

It was getting dark at this time, and I didn’t know if Zijin had found the old prince.

As the night came, the north wind blew, Liu Yunxiang's knees were already unconscious, and she was drowsy. She didn't know how long she could last.

The old prince finally came, his face dark and strode towards the cold wind. He was already full of anger, but seeing Liu Yunxiang like this, he sighed again.

"I shouldn't owe you money!"

Liu Yunxiang supported her body with her hands and looked up at the old prince, "Are you scolded by the emperor?"

"That's called a swearing! I'm so old, I can't even take my old face!" As he said that, the old prince patted his face.

Liu Yunxiang smiled, "It's okay, you're thick-skinned."

The old prince glared at Liu Yunxiang and sat down on the steps in front of her, "I plead for you, and the emperor will suppress me with state affairs and call me a fool, regardless of importance, and be a court official. Judging from his attitude, your seventh son

It is a foregone conclusion to marry Princess Changning.”

Liu Yunxiang lowered her eyes, "I won't agree even if I die."

"Death is a way."

Liu Yunxiang glared at the old prince, "Before I die, you have to pay back the money you owe me!"

The old prince looked down at his long gown, and there was a hole in his knee. The patch he sewed under the oil lamp yesterday was not good-looking, but at least it didn't leak.

One word: Poor.

"Look at your impatient attitude, listen to me slowly. If I don't give up, I'll beg the emperor, but the emperor has also let go."

Liu Yunxiang's eyes lit up, "Oh?"

"He gives you two choices."

"Which two?"

The old prince stroked his beard, smiled and said, "This is the first thing you accept that the seventh brother married Princess Changning. The emperor thought of your contribution to donating silver and grain to the court. You are the concubine, she

Be a concubine.”

Liu Yunxiang hummed, "Where is the second one?"

The old prince glanced at Liu Yunxiang and then said, "Actually, which man has no three wives and four concubines, especially the seventh prince is a prince. If he does not come back..." The old prince pointed to the sky and saw that Liu Yunxiang understood, and then

He said, "You can't be the only one in such a huge harem."

"Why can't it?"

"Which emperor of all dynasties only married one?"

"I dare not others, just ignore him."

The old prince sighed, "This second is the emperor's decree to let Yan Mu rest."

Liu Yunxiang's eyes were sunken, and she guessed that there was this one, so the emperor would naturally not compromise with her a weak woman without power.

She squinted her eyes and looked at the old prince, "Is this what you ask for for me?"

The old prince waved his hand and told her to stay calm. "What I can help you is to wait for Yan Mu to return to Beijing and let him write a divorce letter for you in person."

"you……"

"You can't stand this matter, he has to take it."

Liu Yunxiang exhaled, "You just know his temper. I'm afraid he will really fight head-on with the emperor."

They were desperate and forced into a dead end. Now they finally got to a new start. The road became smoother and smoother. She was afraid that Yan Mu would destroy the positive situation with an impulse, and the efforts of both of them would fail.

"If you kneel here for a night and go directly into the Hall of Hell, you don't have to worry about this." The old prince spread his hands and said.

Liu Yunxiang stood up with her arms, because her knees were numb and staggered forward for a while, and then gritted her teeth before she stood firm.

"Anyway, I can't let him carry it alone."

The old prince asked, "It depends on whether your attitude is tough enough."

On the way back, Liu Yunxiang kept thinking that her attitude could be strong, but Yan Mu could not. He took advantage of the reason for his amnesia and finally made the emperor trust him and get close to him, so he could not ruin the overall situation.

Back at the mansion, Liu Yunxiang asked Zijin and Jinyan to clean up the fineness and softness.

"Girl, we... are we leaving the royal palace?" Jinyan asked inexplicably.

Liu Yunxiang nodded, "Yan'er and Xingyi have already slept, right? Wake them up, there is wind outside, put on a cloak."

Jinyan listened to the whistling wind and asked, "Can you leave tomorrow?"

"Let's go tonight."
