Shen Yijia rolled her eyes at her. “Who are you? Why should I listen to you?” she thought.

Empress Dowager Zhou was so angry that she fell back. She covered her head for a long time before recovering. She said coldly, “Are you really not afraid of death?”

“Of course I’m afraid. Why wouldn’t I be? But didn’t the emperor say that he would spare my life for five days? Why? Do the emperor’s words not count?” She Imew he couldn’t go back on his word.

Was she really using the authority of the emperor? This was an eye-opener for everyone.

Moreover, this was a death warrant.

Empress Dowager Zhou took a deep breath. “What do you want in return for releasing the cranes?”

Shen Yijia rolled her eyes and was about to say something when she heard Empress Dowager Zhou say coldly, “Since you know what’s good for you, you should know that I won’t let you out of the palace.”

The emperor had also said that she would be a hostage in the palace.

She was using her logic to stop her.

Shen Yijia spread her hands. “Then I don’t want anything else.”

It was better to eat meat.

It seemed like she wanted to do this the hard way. Empress Dowager Zhou was really angry this time. Her aura spread out. “Someone, take her away!”

“Mother.”

Before she could finish, a group of people rushed over from not far away.

With Xuanyuan Qi in the lead, Xuanyuan Ziming and another familiar man, Shen Yijia, followed.

Xuanyuan Qi glanced at Shen Yijia, who was standing on the rockery. When he noticed the cranes in her hands, his eyelids twitched.

“Mother, calm down first.” He went forward to support Empress Dowager Zhou.

Xuanyuan Ziming and another man called out in unison, “Grandmother.”

At this moment, Shen Yijia remembered who was standing with Xuanyuan

Ziming. The Second Prince, Xuanyuan Zizhen. His mother’s family was the Cui

family, one of the aristocratic families.

Back at the border, it was this person who spoke up for them. Otherwise, she and Song Jingchen would have been arrested.

“Come down. It’s dangerous up there,” Xuanyuan Qi said with a frown.

Shen Yijia ignored him and ignored Xuanyuan Ziming, who was winking at her.

She only looked at Xuanyuan Zizhen. “Do you still remember me?”

Xuanyuan Zizhen was stunned. He looked around to confirm that she was talking to him and nodded. “We were fated to meet at the border.”

Even though he had guessed that Song Jingchen had helped Lord Jing’an, and that the excuse given by the border guards was fake, he didn’t expect this girl to be Lord Jing’an’s daughter, his cousin.

“It’s good that you remember.” Shen Yijia glanced at Empress Dowager Zhou, who was glaring at her, and curled her lips. “You helped me back then. I don’t like to owe people favors. Tell me, do you want me to let go of these two big white geese too?”

Actually, it was because she understood that she would definitely not be able to eat the goose meat today. In that case, she might as well return the favor and save her face. It was killing two birds with one stone. Everyone looked at Xuanyuan Zizhen in unison.

Xuanyuan Zizhen was speechless.

“Of course,” he said.

“Alright.” Shen Yijia threw the cranes in Empress Dowager Zhou’s direction. Taking advantage of the chaos below, she jumped down from the rockery.

By the time everyone recovered, she was nowhere to be seen.

“Your Majesty, do you want us to capture her?” the commander of the imperial guards asked.

Xuanyuan Qi reprimanded, “If you could catch her, why would you have alarmed me and Mother?”

The imperial guards thought, “Previously, she was holding the crane in her hand. How would they dare to use their full strength?”

Xuanyuan Qi was impatient and did not want to hear his explanation. He waved his hand and asked them to get lost.

“Emperor.” How could Empress Dowager Zhou not tell that he was deliberately protecting Shen Yijia?

Xuanyuan Qi comforted her, “Mother, please endure her for a few more days.

If…”

“Hmph, I hope she won’t disappoint you.” Empress Dowager Zhou snorted and shook off his hand. As the eunuch helped her onto the phoenix carriage, she left without looking back.

The two immortal cranes that were no longer as arrogant as before were carried away.

“Your Majesty, look at this.” Eunuch Wu came out of nowhere with a food box containing spilled food.

This was not the first time the two cranes had taken the initiative to peck at someone. Seeing this food box, Xuanyuan Qi understood.

He sighed and wanted to give an order. He glanced at his two sons and asked, “Why did you enter the palace together? Did you visit your imperial uncle?” The two brothers nodded.

Xuanyuan Qi sighed. He thought of something and asked, “Ah Zhen, when have you seen that girl?”

Xuanyuan Zizhen honestly told him what had happened at the border.

“At that time, I didn’t expect the other party to be Imperial Uncle’s daughter. I just felt that since Imperial Uncle had given her the token, she wouldn’t be a bad person, so I helped her..”
