Overcoming all difficulties, the princess is reborn to become the empress

Ye Zixi excitedly took Su Yunxuan and A Yi to introduce them in the courtyard for a long while. Su Yunxuan's legs were sore from walking, and only after Su Yunxuan's repeated requests did she sit down in the pavilion in the courtyard to rest.

As soon as they sat down, several maids brought them fruits and snacks.

Ayi took the lead and ate the grapes while saying enviously, "Zixi, you are living a good life!"

Ye Zixi nodded repeatedly, "That's right, my aunt is very good to me, and she satisfies me in everything I want."

"Aunt?" Ayi asked puzzledly.

Ye Zixi nodded again, "Yes, it's my aunt. She said she is a good friend of my grandmother."

"She sounds quite old, maybe an old lady!" Ayi said as he stuffed another grape into his mouth.

Ye Zixi pouted and shook her head, "No. My aunt is not an old woman. Although my aunt is not young, she has taken good care of herself and does not look old at all."

A Yi curled his lips in disbelief: "You are the same generation as your grandmother, how can you not be old?"

Su Yunxuan also became curious after listening to it.

I recalled it carefully in my mind again, but still had no impression of this Princess An Lan.

Feng Yuqi saw her frowning face, glanced at Ayi and said, "Princess Anlan is the emperor's biological sister from the same mother, the empress dowager's youngest daughter, fifteen years younger than the emperor, and forty-five this year."

"That's your great aunt." Su Yunxuan put down the teacup and said.

Feng Yuqi paused as he brought the cup to his lips, glanced at Su Yunxuan, lowered his eyes, took a sip, and said, "Princess Anlan hates all men with the surname Feng."

To say "hateful" is actually an understatement.

According to his secret observation, his "aunt" simply rejected and despised all the princes and grandchildren of the emperor with the surname Feng.

No one knew what exactly happened back then. Everyone in the palace was very secretive and refused to mention it, so he couldn't find out why Princess Anlan was like this now.

He was quite surprised when his father instructed him to send Zixi to Princess Anlan.

After secretly looking at the letter his father asked him to give to the eldest princess, he learned that his grandmother actually had a connection with the eldest princess.

Hearing this, Su Yunxuan stared at Feng Yuqi in surprise.

Feng Yuqi didn't want to say more. He put down his teacup, turned to Ye Zixi and asked, "Zixi, are you used to living here? If you need anything, you can tell me and I will satisfy you."

Ye Zixi swallowed the peach meat and shook her head, then nodded vigorously, "I'm used to it. I'm very used to it. Life here is much better than our previous life."

Feng Yuqi nodded and looked back at Su Yunxuan. She seemed to be touched by Zixi's words, and her smile faded, with sadness on her face again.

Unable to bear seeing her like this, Feng Yuqi picked up a banana and handed it to her, "Eat it."

Su Yunxuan came back to her senses, "Ah?"

Feng Yuqi stuffed the banana directly into Su Yunxuan's hands and ordered again: "Eat it."

......

They sat in the pavilion for more than an hour. As the sun rose above their heads, Princess An Lan still did not show up.

No one brought lunch.

Ayi peeked in several times.

She wasn't hungry.

She stuffed half her stomach with various fruit snacks. Listening to Zixi praising the chef at the Princess Mansion, she deliberately saved her stomach and waited for lunch.

As it was approaching the afternoon, Ayi was almost disappointed with his waiting, and Yan Yu was admitted to the hospital.

He walked to the side of the pavilion and said politely, "The Princess invites Miss Zixi and Prince Hao to move to Shaoguang Courtyard and take their seats."

Take your seat?

Not only is there food to eat, but there’s also excitement to watch!

Ayi was immediately cheered up and stood up first.

Tianxun stood beside Feng Yuqi, looking at Ayi's excited expression, feeling something was wrong, and walked over a few steps to grab Ayi.

That's why Ayi didn't rush to the front of Feng Yuqi.

Several people followed Yan Yu and left Jinggu Garden where Zixi was. They walked around in twists and turns for a long time before entering Shaoguang Courtyard.

It turned out to be a garden much larger than Jinggu Garden, with blue bricks and black tiles, jade steps and red terraces, gurgling water, shady trees and fragrant flowers, showing its nobleness, complexity and elegance.

After passing through another archway, we heard faint laughter from behind the corridor.

Ye Zixi broke free from Su Yunxuan's hand and rushed in first.

Su Yunxuan hurriedly went around a screen wall, and suddenly a bright open space appeared in front of her. There were many young men in bright clothes sitting on the ground.

Further away, there were several tables on the kang. In front of one of the tables in the middle, a woman in plain clothes was leaning against it, with her back turned so that her face could not be seen.

Ye Zixi threw herself into the woman's arms, called her affectionately, and then kissed her on the cheek.

Su Yunxuan ran up to her panting. The woman leaned over and pinched Ye Zixi's face, lovingly blaming her: "Who told you to run so fast?"

"My aunt doesn't come to Zixi's Jinggu Garden, so Zixi can only come to you, aunt." Ye Zixi pouted.

After saying that, he turned his head to glance at Su Yunxuan, then excitedly turned to the woman and introduced: "Auntie, this is my sister."

The woman turned around. Her face was bare, with fine lines around her eyes, but she looked dignified and noble.

Although his face showed joy and enjoyment, his eyes could not hide the coldness and loneliness.

Su Yunxuan's heart trembled at the awkwardness and she forgot to bow for a moment.

"Oh?" An Lan also looked at Su Yunxuan and stretched out his hand unconsciously.

The hand suddenly touched Su Yunxuan's eyebrow and gently stroked down along the center of her eyebrow.

Su Yunxuan was so frightened that she came back to her senses and quickly lowered her head and took a step back to avoid it. But she heard Princess An Lan chuckle and said, "Such a beautiful face, how could it be ruined like this?"

"Ah?" Su Yunxuan looked up in surprise.

Princess An Lan withdrew her hand and frowned slightly.

Su Yunxuan bowed her head again and said, "Hello, Princess. I am Zixi's elder sister, Ye Ziqing."

"Come here." An Lan waved at Su Yunxuan.

Su Yunxuan took a big step forward.

An Lan held Su Yunxuan's hand, pulled her to sit beside him, touched her face again and said, "I have a yard full of handsome men, but you, a woman dressed as a man, are outshined. Come on, have a drink with me first."

A man in pink next to her heard this and smiled as he handed a glass of wine to Su Yunxuan.

Su Yunxuan was about to take it when Feng Yuqi interrupted her and said, "She doesn't know how to drink, so her nephew drank it for her."

After saying that, he raised his head and drank it, then bowed to the princess and said, "My nephew Feng Yuqi greets my aunt."

An Lan glanced at Feng Yuqi unhappily, then turned back to Su Yunxuan and stared at her again.

Feng Yuqi watched from the side with a cold face. He raised his hand to poke Ye Zixi who was huddled together with A Yi to secretly eat the delicacies on the table.

Ye Zixi turned her head and looked in the direction Feng Yuqi was looking at. The aunt was holding her sister's hand and staring at her face.

"Aunt, I didn't lie to you, my sister is so beautiful." Ye Zixi shouted.

An Lan nodded, "I think Princess Qingxi must have been a stunning beauty back then, no wonder that guy gave up his kingdom for a beauty."

"Does the princess know my mother?" Su Yunxuan asked.

An Lan let go of his hand, turned around, picked up the wine glass, took a sip and said, "I've heard of it. But I wasn't in the capital for more than 20 years, what a pity."

Su Yunxuan's heart moved.

So that's how it is. No wonder I never saw this Princess Anlan in my previous life.

"Finally, there's a man in the Feng family that I respect." Princess An Lan sneered, stood up and walked a few steps towards Yan Yu.

He was barefoot.

Su Yunxuan's heart moved again. She finally understood why Princess Anlan looked like a young woman from behind.

Her whole figure, like her slender white ankles, was thin and straight, without any feminine demeanor.

"Serve the food." Princess An Lan said. Yan Yu obeyed and turned to walk out.

Princess Anlan suddenly called out again: "No meat today."

"Yes." Yan Yu took the order and left again.
