The eunuch slipped away quickly, disappearing without a trace.

Fang Jinshu sighed helplessly. She turned around and looked at the magnificent palace gate. She had already arrived here. Zongyu's biological mother, the Crown Princess, was just behind this door. As long as she opened it, she could see her old lady.

Retreating now is obviously impossible.

She stepped forward, extending both palms to push open the door. To her surprise, the seemingly heavy palace gate swung open with ease.

Fang Jinshu walked inside. There was no one guarding the palace, and no maids or eunuchs were moving about.

Here it seems deserted, yet not as dilapidated as a cold palace. The courtyard within the hall shows signs of being tended to over time.

Fang Jinshu walked inside the palace, observing it as she went. She soon reached the main bedroom door and just about to knock when a woman's voice startled her from behind.

"Who are you"

Fang Jinxiu suddenly turned around, startled. She hadn't even noticed someone approaching

The woman before me looked much older than I was, with a few streaks of gray hair at her temples. She carried a vegetable basket that seemed out of place in the palace courtyard, and her clothes were made of old hemp fabric.

Even the eunuchs and maids serving in the palace don't wear clothes made of this kind of material. Who exactly is this woman

"I have a few questions for you. Who are you What brings you here And how did you get in"

This aunt's expression was quite fierce when she asked questions, and her aura was intimidating. Could she be serving the Princess

"Are you the *mo mo* beside the Crown Princess"

"I am here on His Majesty's orders to invite the Princess to attend the birthday banquet. Where is Your Highness"

Hearing this, the woman across from him was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter, laughing so hard that her waist bent over. She patted her thigh and jumped up and down, giggling.

"You, are you saying he is the one who asked you to invite me out"

"Still coming to the birthday party"

Fang Jinshi was baffled by her laughter. Even the maids around the Princess, this laugh was too arrogant!

"Hey, little girl, you just called yourself 'Your Majesty'"

Fang Jinshu's heart skipped a beat, but her face remained composed.

"Mo Mo, don't joke around. I am a third-rank court official personally appointed by His Majesty, a real man, not some young girl."

The person across from her suddenly stopped laughing and, arms crossed around a basket, began to size her up.

"Don't you recognize me"

Fang Jinshi was stunned for a moment, then reacted, and a guess in her heart gradually became clear.

Her eyes widened.

"Could it be that you are Princess Chang, the eldest princess Princess Ruqing!"

The woman stood tall, even in the most rudimentary clothing, her bearing and regal princess gaze could not be concealed.

"Well, doesn't it"

"It's been too long since I last went out, people outside probably don't remember that there is still a princess like me in Xixia."

It can't be blamed on Fang Jinshu that she didn't recognize her at first. Although the woman had white hair, her face didn't look like someone in their fifties.

When Princess Ruqing married the Da Xi royal family, she was already 22 years old. Fang Jinshu only found out later that at that time in Xixia, no one dared to marry this princess.

The reason, she now understood.

She had barely stated her intentions when the Crown Princess threw down her basket, sat on a wooden bench in the corridor, and launched into a tirade of insults that could get an entire court official's family executed.

"That bastard, He Lqing! He's kept me locked up for so many years and it wasn't enough. Now he even brings a little girl to mock me!"

"Wasn't it just the other day that they said he was dying in bed This old geezer came back to life again"

"How is this useless man still alive He's even able to bounce around and throw a birthday party!"

"Little girl, go tell Helqing that unless it's his funeral, this old woman will never step out of this palace door in her life."

“Want to trick me into going out and breaking the contract Not a chance!”

Under heaven, the only one who dares to call the Xixia King's name without fear and even calls him "old geezer" is probably this brave warrior in front of us.

Fang Jinxiu reminded him in a huff.

"Your Highness, you are older than His Majesty."

If the King of Xi Xia were still alive, then what about the eldest princess A witch

When Princess Ruochang heard the implication in Fang Jinshu's words, she suddenly stopped scolding. Her eyes locked onto him, and a playful smile curled up at the corner of her lips.

"You're quite a little thing, aren't you"

"What's your name How old are you this year"

"Are you a concubine of Helqing"

Fang Jinshi was disheveled in the wind, “Your Highness, I truly am not a woman.”

She is still trying to save it.

But the elder princess turned a deaf ear to it.

"My little brother, he's becoming more and more beastly. How old are you that he took you into his harem"

"Are you sixteen yet"

Although this could be considered a roundabout way of being praised for her youth, she couldn't feel happy about it.

She no longer bothered with questions of gender, since she had already found someone. Fang Jinxiu looked around.

"Your Highness, don't you have anyone serving you here"

The Crown Princess raised an eyebrow. “No one.”

"What else do you have to say to me So you're not an emperor after all."

Fang Jinshi smiled and suddenly removed the hairpin from her head, allowing her long hair to cascade down freely. Her identity as a woman was now undeniable.

Her actions really surprised the Princess.

"I thought you'd fight to the end, how come you confessed your identity so willingly"

Fang Jinshu smiled and said, "Since the prince has already seen through it, there is no need to keep hiding it."

Besides, this isn't for show.

Ru Qing actually started to develop some interest in the young girl in front of her.

"You're quite interesting, more so than those dull people in the palace."

"You haven't told this palace who you are, what is your name."

Fang Jinshu stared at the Crown Princess, her expression becoming slightly serious. "Do you remember giving birth to a son in Daxia"

Hearing this, Princess Ruqing's face changed instantly. She abandoned her previous manic and languid demeanor, her gaze turned cold and sharp, and she moved with lightning speed. The moment Fang Jinshu finished speaking, the princess had already grabbed her by the neck.

Fāng Jǐnxiù was very surprised. It turned out that the Princess would martial arts!

No wonder she was ostracized by all the concubines in the harem back then, and she could still escape.

"Who are you"

The eldest princess’s voice had changed, her hand gripping Fang Jinxiu’s neck with increasing force. With just a bit more effort, she could snap Fang Jinxiu’s delicate neck and end her life.

But Fang Jinshi didn't take her threat seriously. The more tightly the crown princess pinched, the more anxious she was about this matter.

She was instead very happy. It turned out that Ayu's birth mother hadn't forgotten him, and she had always been caring about him in her heart.

"You, your son, is named Zongyu."

Now he leads Da Xi's army in battle on the border against the Western Xia forces. The Western Xia army is several times stronger than Da Xi's, and this battle for Ayu has been very difficult.

He, he needs your help. tell the mistress."Jin Yu ban nodded, "Then let's see your performance. Don't let me catch you again."Before she could finish her words, several girls hurriedly kowtowed and assured her that there wo...
