Forced to be a third person: I turned around and left the palace to marry a villain

Mrs. Wan couldn't do anything about her daughter, and was worried that it would be unsafe for her to run around alone, so she entrusted her to Jiang Xue to help take care of her.

"Princess Gong, thank you for your help."

"Madam, rest assured, Changle will take good care of Miss Qiao'er."

Jiang Xue nodded to Madam Wan, then took Wan Qiaoer's hand and took her, Xiao Gui and Lu Linyi away from the banquet.

The four of them walked and talked until they came to the garden in the palace. This garden was only separated from the former court by a wall, and occasionally music could be heard from there.

"Princess, what are you doing over there? Why are there musical instruments?"

Wan Qiaoer was young and very curious. When she heard the music, she moved closer to the wall and put her ear close to it to listen carefully.

Her serious look made Jiang Xue and the other three laugh.

"That's the banquet for the emperor, his ministers, and the princes. They are probably enjoying a singing and dancing performance, so there are the sounds of these instruments."

Jiang Xue explained with a smile. She liked this innocent little girl very much, and she also envied her for being able to keep a pure heart in such a prosperous place like Yujing City.

After walking for a while, because the weather was too hot, Jiang Xue and her friends found a pavilion to sit down and rest.

"Princess, I want to take a look over there." The little girl was full of energy, pointing at the rockery not far away, with curiosity flashing in her eyes.

"Xiaochun, please go with Miss Wan."

Jiang Xue knew that this was the harem and Wan Qiaoer had a special status, so she shouldn't be in any danger, so she asked Xiaochun to accompany her.

"That little girl is so lively and cute, which is rare." Looking at Wan Qiaoer running away happily, Lu Linyi sighed sincerely.

"Miss Qiao'er is twelve years old this year. I heard that the number of people proposing to her is almost enough to flatten the threshold." Xiao Gui said.

After all, the Fang family is a royal merchant family with the support of the royal family. Their status is much higher than that of ordinary nobles. Many people dream of marrying the daughter of the Wan family and climbing up the social ladder.

"Mrs. Wan has only one daughter, whom she loves very much. She must find a good family of equal status to ensure that she will have a worry-free life."

Lu Linyi said.

"A match made in heaven..." Xiao Gui repeated these words softly, with a hint of melancholy in her eyes: "In fact, as long as we truly love each other, we don't necessarily have to pay attention to the match made in heaven..."

These words caught Jiang Xue's attention. The last time she saw Xiao Gui and Xie Linyuan arguing outside the window emerged in her mind. Combined with Xiao Gui's current expression, it was not difficult to see what she was thinking.

A princess actually fell in love with a guard in a marquis's mansion.

In the hierarchical Beiling, can this relationship have a good ending?

"Princess Gong, the Queen wants you to go to Fengming Palace."

Just as the three were chatting animatedly, Yue Tao appeared in front of Jiang Xue with a group of maids and conveyed the queen's order.

"The Queen?"

What did the Queen want to see her for? Jiang Xue raised her eyebrows slightly and glanced at the large group of maids behind Yue Tao. There were quite a lot of them.

If it was just an ordinary invitation, would such a big fuss be necessary?

"Yes, Her Majesty wants to discuss the matter of Concubine Zhou in detail with the Princess."

Seeing that Jiang Xue did not leave immediately, Yue Tao signaled two maids to come forward and prepare to forcibly pull Jiang Xue away.

However, before they could touch Jiang Xue's sleeves, they were stopped by Fu Dong.

"Princess Gong, are you going to disobey the Queen's order?"

Yuetao's voice rose an octave, threateningly.

"Since Her Majesty the Queen has invited me, Changle will naturally obey."

Judging from the situation, the Queen will not give up until she sees me.

Jiang Xue gave Lu Linyi and Xiao Gui a comforting smile, then stood up and prepared to leave with Fu Dong.

"Wait." Yue Tao stretched out her hand to stop Fu Dong, "Her Majesty said that only Princess Gong can go, and everyone else must stay here."

Just let her go alone?

Lu Linyi and Xiao Gui were both very worried. They both knew that the Queen had no good intentions towards Jiang Xue. She didn't allow Fu Dong to go with her this time, but insisted that Jiang Xue go alone. It must be something bad.

"Miss Lu, the Queen's words are the imperial decree. You can't just stand in her way." Yue Tao glared and said viciously. The scar on her face turned red, making her look even more terrifying.

"Cousin, don't worry." Jiang Xue patted Lu Linyi's hand gently, then turned to Fu Dong and said, "Just stay here and keep an eye on the Ninth Princess and Miss Lu."

After saying this, Jiang Xue walked towards Fengming Palace.

"Jiang Xue..." Looking at Jiang Xue's receding figure, Lu Linyi felt more and more uneasy.

She clenched her hands and suddenly felt something hard.

When I looked down, I saw that it was actually a small flare.

There was a small note tied behind the flare. When I opened it, it said: If you haven't returned by the hour of You, please set off fireworks for help.

It is now the middle of the Shen hour, which is half an hour later than the You hour.

It turned out that Jiang Xue had been prepared and had this trick up her sleeve.

Lu Linyi looked at the flare in his hand, carefully put it into his arms, and looked firmly in the direction of the Beiling Royal Banquet Hall.

"I wonder if the Queen has any other questions about the Zhou family?" Jiang Xue asked Yue Tao on the way to Fengming Palace.

"Let's discuss this issue when Princess Gong meets Her Majesty." When Yue Tao thought that the scars on her face were caused by this woman, she wished she could have the same scars on her face, and her attitude became very bad.

When they walked under an old banyan tree, Yue Tao curled up a sinister smile, stopped and did not move forward.

"Huh?" Jiang Xue felt something was wrong and looked back.

Suddenly, an impenetrable ground net emerged from underground.

With a whoosh, Jiang Xue was trapped and hung in the air.

The net was woven so densely that Jiang Xue struggled for a long time but couldn't get out. Finally, in order to save energy, she just sat quietly in the net.

"Is this also what the Queen meant?" Faced with this sudden situation, she remained calm and composed, not like someone in danger.

This made Yue Tao, who originally wanted to see her panic, very unhappy. She picked up a stick that she had picked up from somewhere and hit Jiang Xue hard.

Fortunately, the height of the hanging was not low, and the length of the stick could only hit her calf. Even if Yue Tao used all her strength, it only caused some minor skin injuries on Jiang Xue's calf.

"Yuetao." When Yuetao was exhausted and out of breath, the queen came out from behind the banyan tree.

She looked up at Jiang Xue hanging in the air and sneered, "Changle, how do you feel up here?"

"Thank you for your concern, Her Majesty. Changle feels fine." Jiang Xue gently rubbed her beaten calf, clearly feeling the pain.

But she held back and said sarcastically, "The Queen's way of meeting is really unique. It really opened Changle's eyes. Changle is high up now. If someone saw this scene, I wonder what they would think?"
