Inside the Blue Bird Hall, they lingered on for an entire night, and everywhere they went, the feeling of being reunited after a long time was overflowing with happiness. However, Lan Ruo'er, who had been arranged to stay in the Red Sleeve Palace, was actually guarding the large empty room by herself.

But so what if it wasn't the taste? In Xuanyuan Zhiling's heart, there was only Qin Feng.

Clear tears flowed down Lan Ruo'er's fair cheeks.

The morning's sunlight slowly shined into the Red Sleeve Palace, causing the sullen Lan Ruo'er to immediately perk up.

"Am I hearing things? The emperor has come. Could it be that he really has thought it through? " Lan Ruo'er joyfully combed her hair and dressed to her best condition, then obediently waited at the door to greet them.

When Xuanyuan Zhiling stepped through the Red Sleeve Palace door, he saw a respectful yet happy Lan Ruo'er standing at the door.

"This humble girl didn't know that the emperor had arrived. If you ran into any inconvenience, please forgive me, Your Majesty." Lan Ruo'er said with an extremely respectful smile. From her appearance, it could be seen that she was a lady from a noble family. She was very familiar with etiquette and was very familiar with it.

Xuanyuan Zhiling nodded his head in satisfaction, but a complicated look flashed across his face and he said: "From today onwards, do not call yourself my daughter, we have already thought about it."

She had the feeling that she was about to fly into the sky, but Xuanyuan Zhiling's next words had pushed her from the clouds all the way to the bottom in an instant.

"We have already decided to accept you as our adopted sister. As your home is still not safe, you should temporarily stay in this Red Sleeve Palace. In a while, we will write an edict to announce you to the world and give you the title of Princess Yiyang."

At this moment, Lan Ruo'er's face had already turned green.

"Your Majesty …" Lan Ruo'er said with her voice that was practically trembling.

"Don't say anymore. It won't benefit you in any way." As Xuanyuan Zhiling said this, he lifted his leg and left the Red Sleeve Palace, leaving behind Lan Ruo'er, who was secretly wounded by herself.

Not long after Xuanyuan Zhiling left, a large group of palace maids and eunuchs came to the Red Sleeve Palace. All of them carried all sorts of treasures in their hands, which were all bestowed by Xuanyuan Zhiling. Looking at these precious rewards, Lan Ruo'er couldn't help but let out a bitter laugh.

"Did the Emperor send me any message?" Lan Ruo'er seemed to suddenly remember something, even if it was what Xuanyuan Zhiling had said to her, it was fine. However, the eunuch who came to deliver the gift laughed awkwardly and said, "Princess Yi Yang, the emperor has nothing to say to this servant."

As the young eunuch spoke to here, Lan Ruo'er's heart turned completely cold.

Some of the eunuchs who came to deliver gifts left the treasures, but some stayed behind. They said that Xuanyuan Zhiling had told them to stay at the Red Sleeve Palace and specifically serve Princess Yi Yang from now on.

In the morning assembly, Xuanyuan Zhiling had announced that he would be bestowed the title of Princess Yi Yang. The officials knew that the Emperor had already made his decision, and thus, no one objected. After leaving the morning assembly, Xuanyuan Zhiling heard that Qin Feng had prepared breakfast for him, so he rushed to Blue Bird Hall without delay.

"I heard that you bestowed Lan Ruo'er the title of Princess Yi Yang in the morning court?" Qin Feng and Xuanyuan Zhiling sat in front of a round table. On the table, there were some relatively light vegetable porridge, some exquisite little pastries, and a few cool and delicious dishes.

As Qin Feng spoke, she held a small porcelain bowl in one hand and a spoon in the other, which she was currently filling up with porridge.

Xuanyuan Zhiling was initially focused on eating, but after hearing Qin Feng's words, she carefully observed Qin Feng's face, and after noticing that Qin Feng was not unhappy, she laughed: "The news from empress is getting more and more well-informed, did you send some spies into our imperial court?"

Xuanyuan Zhiling joked as he received the porridge.

"As a empress, wouldn't it be weirder to not hear anything outside the window?" Qin Feng gently scooped up a spoonful of porridge and elegantly brought it to her mouth.

Xuanyuan Zhiling ate a few mouthfuls, and after hearing Qin Feng's words, she put down the food in her hands, her expression becoming a little more solemn.

"Actually, this Lan Ruo'er brat is very clever. I really couldn't bear to see her return, so I wanted to give her a concubine as a job, but unfortunately …" Xuanyuan Zhiling said as he shook his head in regret. There were only four big words on his face.

Hearing Xuanyuan Zhiling's words, Qin Feng's expression did not change in the slightest. Instead, she continued to eat her breakfast without a care in the world.

"I also feel that it's a pity. Why can't such a knowledgeable and reasonable girl help me manage the harem?" Qin Feng said indifferently, she did not even look at Xuanyuan Zhiling.

However, in Qin Feng's heart, she remembered the voice she heard outside the imperial study that day. Wasn't that voice Lan Ruo'er now? Thinking about this, Qin Feng's mood still became a little down.

Hearing this, Xuanyuan Zhiling's face suddenly became ugly.

"You really think so?" Xuanyuan Zhiling's face immediately became ugly, his eyes staring straight at Qin Feng's nonchalant face.

"That's right, you're the Emperor! Who do you want to be your concubine? This is your power." Qin Feng remained indifferent and gently put down the tableware in her hands, ready to have a good rest. However, just as Qin Feng was about to stand up, a strong gust of wind suddenly came from behind him. Suddenly, Qin Feng was pressed against the wall by a huge force.

Qin Feng turned her head around in shock, and saw Xuanyuan Zhiling's face which carried traces of anger.

"You really don't care? "Am I that unimportant in your heart?" Xuanyuan Zhiling stared intently at Qin Feng and Qin Feng could even feel her increasingly rough breathing.

Qin Feng shook his head, and said indifferently: "You are right, whoever you love has nothing to do with me, that is your freedom." As Qin Feng said this, she originally thought that intentionally making Xuanyuan Zhiling angry like this would completely infuriate Xuanyuan Zhiling, but she never expected that Xuanyuan Zhiling would actually smile.

"Alright, then I'll bestow three beauties every day from tomorrow. I want three thousand beauties from the harem, what does empress say?" When Xuanyuan Zhiling said this, his face carried a trace of a pleased smile. He had already noticed that Qin Feng was purposely angering him, and thus, he sent one of his troops forward.

Qin Feng hurriedly nodded his head and said: "This idea is not bad, if this is the case, then you will have a lot of work to do in the future, so you don't have to come and bother me everyday." Qin Feng said as her big watery eyes blinked.

"In the end, there are too many people. How about we let them all stay in your Blue Bird Hall?" Xuanyuan Zhiling said while smiling, thinking to himself that this would be a good way to heal Qin Feng's tongue that wanted to kill him.

However, Qin Feng's face suddenly darkened as she said: "Just like that day in the imperial study where you had a private meeting with Lan Ruo'er? for other women to violate something that should have belonged to me? " When Qin Feng said this, she clearly saw the shocked expression on her face.

"You heard what she said the other day?" Xuanyuan Zhiling's smile had disappeared, and the atmosphere became serious, causing people to feel suffocated.

Hearing that, Qin Feng immediately laughed coldly, with a tinge of ridicule on her face.

"You don't want me to know? What are you afraid of letting me know? " Qin Feng said. She was prepared to vent all her unhappiness and grievances these days because she did not want to live a fake life anymore.

The sudden change in Qin Feng's mood also made him nervous.

"Qin Feng, since you heard it, why did you pretend to not see it at all?" Xuanyuan Zhiling gently furrowed his brows as he looked at Qin Feng. He finally knew that Qin Feng really cared about him, not to mention the 3000 beauties, even just Lan Ruo'er alone was enough to make Qin Feng feel threatened.

"Could it be that you wish for me to rush forward like a shrew, pull Lan Ruo'er's hair and tell her to stay away from my man?! Do you want to see that? " Qin Feng was very much like a little lion, an angry little lion.

Xuanyuan Zhiling unknowingly softened his heart upon hearing Qin Feng's words.

"Qin Feng, you just said that I'm your man? This is the first time you have said such a thing. " Xuanyuan Zhiling was a little overwhelmed by the favor he received. He looked at Qin Feng in pleasant surprise, and suddenly had the urge to kiss him. That's right, he, Xuanyuan Zhiling, would be willing to be Qin Feng's man for the rest of her life.

Qin Feng realized that she had probably gone overboard, and her emotions calmed down a little upon hearing Xuanyuan Zhiling's words.

"That's right, you're my man. In this lifetime, you can only be one of my, Qin Feng's, men, even if you're the Emperor." Qin Feng mustered up the courage to say these words. Her eyes flickered slightly, but the moment Qin Feng finished speaking, her lips were immediately taken over by Xuanyuan Zhiling.

"Ugh …" Qin Feng didn't even have time to react before she was violently pressed against the wall by Xuanyuan Zhiling, as her tyrannically aggressive lips occupied the place.

"Fine, let me be your man for the rest of my life, I promise I'll listen to you obediently." Xuanyuan Zhiling laughed, and looked into Qin Feng's sincere eyes that carried traces of arrogance and stubbornness.

The heavy rain seeped into the imperial city and the Blue Bird Hall became quiet again after Xuanyuan Zhiling left. However, Qin Feng never expected that they would welcome an uninvited guest that she did not really want to see.

"Princess Yiyang? "Why are you here?" Qin Feng's face was full of surprise when she saw the person in front of her. She absolutely didn't think that this Princess Yi Yang would actually take the initiative to look for her, wasn't she deliberately trying to make things awkward?

This scene could not be more embarrassing.

"empress doesn't welcome me?" Lan Ruo'er blushed slightly upon hearing Qin Feng's words. On her face, Qin Feng did not see any hostility similar to Liu Yue's, nor did she see the ruthless aura from Nalan Duo'er's body earlier.

Qin Feng tried her best not to be hostile towards her on purpose, even if there were traces of wariness in her heart.

"Of course not, I must have come for some reason." Of course not, I must have come for some reason. When she said that, Qin Feng smiled, she had already done her best to make herself look calm and at ease.

However, compared to Qin Feng, Lan Ruo'er had a face full of distress and grief.

"empress, I know that coming to you like this is actually a bit embarrassing and presumptuous, but I really want to say the truth of my heart, I don't want to hide it from you." As Lan Ruo'er said this, the distress on her face became even more obvious.

Qin Feng seemed to have understood the deep meaning behind Lan Ruo'er's words. She had already clearly told herself that she loved Xuanyuan Zhiling, and she also wanted to share half of this man with him.

"Say what you want to say." Even if Qin Feng really didn't want to hear what she was going to say, she couldn't do it on the surface. Qin Feng knew that she couldn't show off her stingy or weak side in front of Lan Ruo'er.

She wanted to disguise herself, and this was the only thing that could let Qin Feng feel a little safe.

"empress, actually, I don't want to be some Princess Yiyang. I love your majesty, and I also want to be the woman he loves, even if I know that your majesty only has empress in her heart." Lan Ruo'er said, her expression revealing a feeling of inferiority that she had never felt before.

Not knowing why, Qin Feng suddenly felt that Lan Ruo'er was very pitiful. Because Qin Feng knew Lan Ruo'er's background, she actually didn't need to be as petty and petty as she was now. From Lan Ruo'er's eyes, Qin Feng could tell that she really loved Xuanyuan Zhiling.
