He re...The woman with her head resting on the man's chest was Liu Shi, An Xue Tang's biological mother. Despite her age, ever since she started using An Xue Tang's beauty cream, she looked like a woman in her early twenties.

When she was in Lingshu Village, she paid special attention to skincare and always tried to keep in good shape.

After entering the capital, although life wasn't easy, at least I had food and shelter that was much better than before. My nutrition improved, and my figure became increasingly good – where it should be curvy, it was curvy, and where it should be slim, it was slim.

But this was also the reason why she had a bad time after entering Beijing, because her beauty had affected An Nán Lín's current wife.

If she hadn't held the antidote for both the Wang and Cui families in her hand, she would have probably been dealt with by that so-called legitimate wife!

She thought she would simply grow old and fade away in An Nam Lin's backyard for the rest of her life.

Annann Lin did indeed like her face and figure, and would come to see her every day with his wife on his back. She didn't say anything about it, after all, who could compare to the so-called legitimate wife in terms of status

She just wanted to live a peaceful life, even if her status was only that of a concubine. She could only accept it, after all, she belonged to her father at home, to her husband when she got married, and to her son after her husband died. Since she had no son, she was destined to be inferior to others for the rest of her life.

And her daughter had already passed away, and now An Xue Tangxin had changed. How could she guarantee that this An Xue Tang would be as filial as her Ah Tang

But her good days didn't last long. Suddenly, one day, she was inexplicably thrown into jail. She had never seen anything like this before and nearly fainted from fright.

Later, An Nanlin came to see her and told her the truth. It turned out that Yun Jing, the man from the little wooden house, was a prince, no less than the renowned Prince of Beijiang!

And An Xue Tang unexpectedly became the Princess Consort of Beijang. The Emperor sent people to capture her precisely to control both An Xue Tang and the King of Beijang. During her imprisonment, someone would come every day to force a confession from her.

When I questioned her about the King of Beijang and An Xuetang, she could only repeat herself day after day.

During her time in prison, she realized deeply how powerful people could be. Those with power and influence could kill ordinary people as if they were ants.

If she wanted to survive, relying solely on Mo Yunjing and An Xuetang wasn't enough. She had to find a way to draw the attention of the highest authority, the Emperor.

So, she gave her only piece of jewelry to the jailer in exchange for spreading rumors on her behalf.

She had the jailer tell people that she possessed a special beauty balm, so despite being in her thirties, she appeared to be in her twenties.

What still puzzled her was how the jailer could possibly help. He only cared about money; he'd promised verbally but hadn't done anything at all.

But the person who helped her escape from prison was someone she could never have imagined: An Nanlin's 'legal wife', Liu Yan'er.

Liu Yan'er did indeed want to kill Liu Shi, but as a woman, she also envied and coveted Liu Shi's fair skin and figure.

She learned from Wang and Cui that Liu had a special ointment, so even if she wanted to kill Liu, she would first try to get the ointment from her.

But the Emperor had already ordered that no one was allowed to contact Liu Shi, so Liu Yan'er had to think of another way.

And her method was to tell the imperial consorts, who wouldn't want to remain youthful forever

Thus, in a short while, Liu was truly welcomed into the palace. What's more, she happened to meet the emperor that very day!

Liu's face, coupled with her pitifully charming demeanor, completely captivated the emperor the moment he saw her.

It was plain to see what happened next: the Emperor hid her in an inconspicuous courtyard within the palace, visiting almost every night.

At this time, Liu's lips curved into a faint smile. With one hand, she gently drew circles on the emperor's chest. After recovering from the previous overexertion, her sweet voice spoke:

"Your Majesty, are you truly going to have A Tang enter the palace tomorrow morning She is merely a common woman. Would it not be too much of an imposition to have her in the main hall"

The emperor narrowed his eyes, his big hand resting on her back, stroking it up and down, "Rest assured, I only had her brought into the palace to bestow upon her gifts. There's no reason for you to worry."

But Auntang is timid, my lady fears that Your Majesty's imposing presence might frighten her.

The emperor's face instantly fell. "What Does my appearance seem so terrifying"

Liu's little hand 'misbehaved' on him, and her delicate voice spoke again:

"As if! The Emperor isn't frightening at all. It's just that Ah Tang is still young, and I'm afraid she might not be respectful enough to the Emperor, perhaps even disobey him. Your Majesty, please don't hold it against her."

Liu Shi pursed her lips, and in the place where the emperor couldn't see, a hint of worry appeared in her eyes. Although An Xue Tang was not her real daughter now, that body was her daughter's after all, and she didn't really want to see anything happen to it.

And to be honest, she needed to see the current An Xuetang. The beauty and skincare ointments An Xuetang had given her were almost gone, and her heart was filled with some apprehension.

She knew deep down that without her face and figure, the Emperor wouldn't even look at her, let alone treat her with any respect. He would see her as nothing more than an ant, easily crushed whenever he pleased. That's why she had to find a way to get some more ointment from An Xuetang.

At this moment, the Emperor's mind was filled with the image of Mo Yun Jing, his eyes turning cold:

"Your daughter is now the Princess Consort of Beijiang, my daughter-in-law, and a renowned war hero. If I wanted to harm her, it wouldn't be so simple."

Liu's face turned pale, and she immediately sat up. "Your Majesty, do you really want to harm A Tang"

The Emperor saw her tearful face and his heart softened. He quickly pulled her down, letting her lean against him. His hands moved restlessly over her body, "Don't worry, I won't do anything to you."

Liu shi let out a slight sigh of relief, then fell silent for a moment before speaking again. “Your Majesty, this humble subject...this humble subject actually has something she wishes to ask of you, hoping that Your Majesty will grant her request.”

"Hm It's rare for you to finally have a request. Go on, what do you want from me"

Since Liu entered the palace, whenever he asked her for anything, she always said she didn't need it. Because she never mentioned anything about status or position, he became more and more satisfied with her.

Now that she was asking for something, he was curious to see what conditions she would propose.

"Your Majesty, may I... see Ah Tang"

The emperor's deep eyes narrowed slightly, "What did you see her for Do you expect her to save you"

The Emperor's tone was icy cold at this moment, and Liu shi trembled in fear. She quickly got up and knelt on the bed, shaking her head:

"No...no, the woman doesn't want to leave the emperor. The woman doesn't need any status or possessions outside of herself. She only wants to serve by the emperor's side."

Her words and attitude instantly made the emperor happy, prompting a smile. “That’s better.
