Emperor Zhaocheng walked to the outer hall, turned around and told Zuo: "Secure this place, no one is allowed to disturb Miss Yan's rest."

"yes."

"Prince." Emperor Zhaocheng turned his eyes slightly and looked at Mu Xiuhan without emotion, "You are a man after all. Now that your engagement with Yan Li has been canceled, men and women cannot be intimate, so now go back to your East Palace and kneel down to copy " Tao Te Ching fifty times.”

"Fifty times?" The queen came out and heard this sentence, her face suddenly changed, "Your Majesty——"

Emperor Zhaocheng turned his head and looked at her indifferently: "What else does the queen want to say?"

Mu Xiuhan clenched his hands tightly, his heart filled with resentment and anger. The Emperor was so protective of Yan Li that he did not hesitate to treat him as the crown prince like this.

What did he do wrong? Is it wrong that he doesn't want to marry Yan Li?

"Why are you still standing there?" Emperor Zhaocheng looked at Mu Xiuhan coldly, "Are you dissatisfied with my punishment?"

Mu Xiuhan came back to his senses, quickly covered up the resentment in his eyes, lowered his head and said, "I don't dare, I will accept the order."

After he finished speaking, he stood up and knelt for more than two hours. His legs were sore and painful. It was like there were awls digging into his bones in his knees. Mu Xiuhan resisted the urge to reach out and rub his knees, stiffly He turned around and walked out, his steps sluggish and the pain unbearable.

"Your Majesty." There was a hint of crying in the Queen's voice, "The Crown Prince has never suffered such a serious crime. The Emperor punished him by kneeling for so long. Doesn't it still offset his fault?"

"Offset?" Emperor Zhaocheng looked at the queen with disappointment, "It's really beyond my expectation that you can say such things."

"emperor?"

"The prince is the crown prince of a country. His ambition and behavior are related to the country. A wrong decision will lead to disastrous consequences. How can he kneel for a while to offset it?" Emperor Zhaocheng smiled coldly, "Since you want to offset it, What do you think about letting the prince take the same blame that Yan Li received?"

The queen's face turned green and white, and she stiffly lowered her head to admit her mistake: "I made a mistake."

"Fengyang Palace is temporarily letting Yan Li recover from his injuries. The queen does not need to come here often." Emperor Zhaocheng walked out with his hands behind his hands. There were many more people inside and outside the palace gate, "Don't forget the prince's wedding ceremony tomorrow." ”

The queen clenched her hands tightly and almost gritted her teeth with hatred.

That night, except for the medical girl and the palace maid, no one came to disturb her, and Yan Li slept soundly.

The next morning she woke up from hunger.

The doctor changed her dressing twice during the night. When changing the dressing, she simply wiped her body and changed her clothes. When she got up in the morning, the swelling on Yan Li's face had completely subsided, and the injuries on her body were still painful, but her spirits were obviously improved. Many of them had bright faces, and they didn't look like a seriously injured person at all.

"Girl." The palace maid helped her wash up. "The slave brought a bowl of bird's nest. The doctor said that eating bird's nest is good for the recovery of injuries."

Yan Li didn't say anything, her face and eyes were so calm that she didn't seem to have the grace and dignity that a girl of this age should have.

While the palace maid was waiting on her, Yan Li quietly cleaned her hands, face, and rinsed her hands. Then she got up from the bed and stood on the ground.

"Girl." Doctor Bai ran over quickly, with a worried look on her face, "You can't go to bed yet."

"It doesn't matter." Yan Li finally spoke, her voice as cold as snow and full of authority, "Has Jiang Jingyue been taken into the palace?"

"Yes." Before the light came on, the palace sedan chair left the palace gate.

Yan Li walked to the window and stood in front of the window. Bai Die brought her a coat and put it on: "The girl's injury is not healed yet, don't catch a cold."

Yan Li didn't speak. She was thinking about the current situation in her mind. She was in the Mu Kingdom's palace. At this time, she was completely conscious and she remembered something more important.

Why did Emperor Zhaocheng love Yan Li so much?

In Yan Li's memory, she only remembered that her mother's name was Jiang Yi, but she had no idea what she looked like.

Yan Li also had no idea who her mother was - or who her mother had decided to marry her for life.

But if she remembered correctly, the queen of the Jin Dynasty next door also seemed to have a surname of Jiang.

The reason why the emperor of Mu State loves Yan Li so much should be because of her mother.

"Miss." A female official walked in and bowed to Yan Li, "Miss Jiang, please see me. Do you want to see her?" m.

Yan Li came to his senses so quickly?

Turning her head to look at the female officer, she said calmly: "What's your name?"

"Your servant Qinglian is the female official of the Fengyang Palace. She is responsible for serving the girl's food, clothing, daily life, and managing other maids in the palace."

Yan Li hummed: "Let Jiang Jingyue come in."

"yes."

A palace maid brought the bird's nest over and said, "The girl still has some difficulty in moving. I will serve the girl to eat."

"No, I'll come by myself." Yan Li took the bird's nest, took the white spoon and started eating slowly.

There were four medical ladies and eight palace maids in the hall, with hands for meals, hands for clothes, hands for washing, and hands for sleeping... At this time, more than a dozen people stood aside quietly, not daring to say anything to Yan Li. Even though I have some doubts in my heart, I always feel that this Miss Yan does not match the rumored image of being dependent on others.

The princesses in the palace always looked down upon the prince's fiancée when they mentioned her, saying that she was an orphan. It would be nice to call her the cousin of the prince's family, but she was worse than the legitimate daughter Jiang Jingyue. Far away.

When I heard her speak today, there was nothing humble or cowardly about her. Instead, I felt an indescribable and intimidating pressure.

The maids had this thought in their minds, but they didn't dare to show it. After all, even the prince was punished, so who would dare to be rude to Yan Li?

Jiang Jingyue walked in quickly, thinking that Yan Li was still unconscious on the bed, but after entering the palace, she found that Yan Li's condition seemed to have improved significantly.

"Sister." Jiang Jingyue suppressed her emotions and smiled as gently as she did in the Taifu Mansion, "How is your injury?"

Yan Li ate the bird's nest quietly and didn't speak.

Jiang Jingyue's expression froze slightly, and then she smiled again: "I'm married to the prince."

Yan Li was still silent, and her attitude was indifferent and alienated, rejecting people from the outside.

Jiang Jingyue frowned slightly, and couldn't help but look up and carefully look at Yan Li. The girl in front of her was still the same girl, thirteen or fourteen years old, weak and delicate. Except for her stunning face that always made people jealous, there was no other change.

She looked like a different person at this time.

"Yan Li." Jiang Jingyue smiled and said, "I--"

Yan Li said coldly: "What are you doing here?"
