No matter how busy and tired the emperor was in the previous dynasty, as soon as he returned to Suiyuxuan, he could feel a sense of tranquility and peace of mind.

This place seemed to have a special magic that allowed the emperor to forget all his worries and enjoy a moment of peace. Here, he could put down his imperial airs and show his true self.

"Mei'er, I really want to stay here forever. It makes me feel comfortable and without any pressure!"

The emperor called Shen Meimei's name gently, his eyes full of doting.

Shen Meimei responded with a smile:

"Your Majesty, you still have to attend the morning court tomorrow. Go to bed now and don't stay up late. Staying up late is not good for your health!"

As she spoke, she gently snuggled into the emperor's arms, and the two fell asleep in each other's arms.

The next morning, the emperor went to court on time, and Shen Meimei also got up early. She couldn't just sit there and do her business, so she hurried to the Yanx Palace to do her business.

In the Yanxi Palace, ever since she had passed by Zhen Heng at the banquet last time, her originally dead heart suddenly became active again.

Once, she thought she could die peacefully in this deep palace, but when she saw Zhen Heng, the coldness in her heart was instantly ignited.

In the seven years since she entered the palace, she has always been just a plaything in the hands of the emperor and a chess piece used by the queen to balance the harem.

She was like a rootless duckweed, drifting with the flow.

However, the moment she saw Zhen Heng, she suddenly felt that her life had such meaning.

As long as I could see him again, I would have no regrets even if I died immediately.

Outside the palace gate at this time, Zhen Heng had already changed shifts, but no matter whether it was his turn to be on duty or not, he would come here for a walk, always thinking in his heart that if the palace gate was opened, he could take one more look at An Lingrong.

Outside the palace gate, Xiao Yunzi shouted loudly, "Empress Hui has arrived!"

Shen Meimei deliberately let Xiao Yunzi shout like this. She just wanted to let people know that she came to the Yanx Palace, so that An Lingrong's life would be better.

Xiao Yunzi lifted the curtain of the sedan chair, and Shen Meimei got out of it, just in time to see Zhen Heng wandering at the palace gate.

"Your Majesty, I am here to see you!" Zhen Heng bowed and saluted.

Seeing that there was no one around, Shen Meimei took out some silver and gave it to Xiao Yunzi.

Xiao Yunzi took the silver and said to the guard:

"This is because Concubine Hui thought of everyone's hard work in guarding the gate, so she prepared a banquet. Let's go and have a drink together!"

The two guards looked at each other, and finally looked at their boss Zhen Heng.

"You guys go, and don't let the Queen down!" Zhen Heng understood and hurriedly reminded them.

Since the leader had spoken, the two guards naturally followed Xiao Yunzi to have a drink.

Caixing pushed open the door of Yanxi Palace and heard the door creak open.

Shen Meimei went in first, and An Lingrong knelt on the ground to greet her respectfully. Behind Shen Meimei, Zhen Heng walked in slowly.

"Sister An, please get up quickly. Why do you have to perform such a big ceremony?" Shen Meimei took a few quick steps and helped An Lingrong up.

"Sister Mei, you are the only one who sets foot in the Yanxi Palace nowadays. I really don't know what words of thanks to say!" An Lingrong slowly got up, she looked up at Shen Meimei, and then she realized Zhen Heng was standing behind Shen Meimei.

Zhen Heng bowed, "Greetings to Concubine An!"

"Brother Zhen!" An Lingrong couldn't help but blurt out. She had called these three words countless times in her heart but never out loud.

Shen Meimei was overjoyed. As long as they were in love, she would find a way to get An Lingrong out of the palace.
