Weiyang Palace

Zheng Xiyan was woken up by Biluo in the middle of the night, "My Queen, my Queen, wake up."

"What's wrong?" Zheng Xiyan slowly opened her eyes and immediately became alert.

"Something seems to be wrong in Yong'an Palace. Our people sent a message saying that lights were lit in the side hall of Yong'an Palace and it was in chaos. It should be that Shen Zhaorong is about to give birth." Biluo said cautiously.

Zheng Xiyan was no longer sleepy at this moment, and asked, "What time is it now?"

"My lady, it is already Yin hour."

"It will be dawn soon. If Shen Zhaorong gives birth before dawn, they will definitely send the princess out of the palace immediately. This is the best opportunity." Zheng Xiyan's brain was working rapidly, calmly analyzing the current situation.

"That's what the Queen said."

Zheng Xiyan did not sleep until dawn. After washing and dressing herself, she sat on the phoenix throne in the main hall, waiting for dawn.

Yong'an Palace

Shen Aoning used all her strength and finally gave birth to the child before dawn. It was indeed a princess.

Hearing her daughter's cry, Shen Aoning was exhausted but still managed to hold on, "Sister... Sister, my daughter, my daughter..."

Xi Muyao glanced at her and said coldly, "Take her away quickly and bring the prince here."

"Sister, sister... let me take a look... let me take a look at my child." Shen Aoning was sweating profusely. He weakly grabbed her hand and begged her.

Xi Muyao hardened her heart and pushed her hand away, "Ao Ning, a short pain is worse than a long one. We will see each other again in the future."

"No... Sister, let me take a look, I... I beg you..." Shen Aoning grabbed the corner of her clothes, half of her body hanging in the air.

Seeing her like this, Xi Muyao couldn't bear it, so she compromised and said, "Bring the princess here."

The midwife brought the child over. Shen Aoning saw her daughter in the cradle. This was her daughter, the daughter she had given birth to with so much difficulty. She hugged the child in her arms and suddenly changed her mind, "Sister, I don't want a prince anymore. I want this princess."

"Ao Ning, what nonsense are you talking about?" Xi Muyao's face changed drastically, and his expression instantly became gloomy.

"Sister, this is my daughter! The daughter I gave birth to after ten months of pregnancy. No matter how good the prince is, he is not my child." Shen Aoning hugged the child tightly. She would not allow anyone to separate them.

"Are you crazy? Give the child to me quickly." As she said that, Xi Muyao stepped forward to snatch the child, revealing her sinister side.

Xi Muyao tried to grab the child, but Shen Aoning hugged the child and kept begging her, "Sister, please don't take my child away. I beg you, okay?"

"Give me the child quickly. You gave birth to a prince, not a princess."

"Sister!" Shen Aoning had just given birth and had no strength at all to break free. She could not and could only watch her daughter being taken away by them.

Xi Muyao snatched the princess away and handed her to the midwife, saying, "Hurry up, it will be dawn soon and the palace gate will open soon. Send the child to the Xi Mansion and someone will pick you up."

"The slaves obey."

"My child, my child..." Shen Aoning rushed out of bed, crying, but was stopped by Xi Muyao, "Aoning, Aoning, be obedient. I promise you that you will see her again."

"Sister! I beg you, I don't want the prince, I only want my daughter, I beg you, don't take my daughter away." Shen Aoning broke down emotionally, tears streaming down her face.

Xi Muyao pushed her away and slapped her hard, "Idiot!"

After being slapped, Shen Aoning collapsed to the ground.

There were midwives and palace maids in the palace. Xi Muyao ordered, "Go out and take the prince to feed him."

"Yes!"

There were only two of them left in the hall. Xi Muyao squatted down, grabbed her shoulders, and said, "At this point, there is no turning back. Ao Ning, you can't catch a wolf without sacrificing a lamb. How come you don't understand such a simple truth?"

Having lost her daughter, she completely lost her mind and asked, "You can't catch a wolf without sacrificing your child? Then why didn't you sacrifice your child? Why didn't you use the trick of stealing a dragon and replacing a phoenix at the beginning? Why didn't you give me the trick of having twins?"

"Now you have both a son and a daughter, and you can raise your biological daughter, but I am forced to be separated from my daughter. Why?" Shen Aoning was unwilling and pushed her to the ground. Why should she sacrifice her daughter?

They finally got to this point.

"Ao Ning, we grew up together and are as close as sisters. But now, you treat me like this?" Xi Muyao looked at her coldly.

"Stop being hypocritical here. Everything you do is just for yourself. You are just afraid that I have something on you, so you force me to switch the daughter, right?" Shen Aoning didn't want to care about sisterly love now. She just wanted her daughter to be by her side.

"How can you think of me like that? Everything I do is for our future. We have a prince, and that is far from enough." Xi Muyao was still quibbling.

Shen Aoning collapsed and yelled, "Excuses, they are all excuses. Do you still have the truth to tell me now?"

"Aoning!" Xi Muyao raised her voice.

Xi Muyao calmed down, got up from the ground, and said in a cold voice: "The day will soon dawn. When the day dawns, the entire palace will know that you gave birth to the fourth prince. At this point, there is no turning back for us."

"My daughter, my daughter..."

Weiyang Palace

Beams of light shone into the main hall. Zheng Xiyan saw that it was daybreak and said, "The show is about to begin."

After a while, a young eunuch came to report, "Your Majesty, the midwife from Yong'an Palace left the palace with a baby and has been detained by our people."

Zheng Xiyan raised the corner of her mouth and chuckled, "I know about this, but you didn't say anything!"

"No, it's just dawn now, no one will know."

"it is good!"

Zi Luo walked in at this time and said, "Madam, Xu Chongyuan is outside asking to see you."

Zheng Xiyan was slightly surprised. "So early? Why is she here? Let her in!"

"Yes!"

Xu Chongyuan walked in and said, "Your Highness, I pay my respects to the Queen."

"Get up!" Zheng Xiyan said in a deep voice.

"Thank you, Queen."

"It's just dawn, why are you here?"

Seeing that she was already dressed, Xu Chongyuan smiled and said, "Empress, how come you are already dressed at dawn?"

Zheng Xiyan chuckled. Xu Chongyuan was smart. "Minghua Palace is close to Yong'an Palace. I think you already know something."

"Your Majesty is right. Perhaps I can help you. You also need a witness now, don't you?" Xu Chongyuan raised her eyebrows slightly, and the expression on her face was intriguing.

"Okay, very good!" Zheng Xiyan lowered her eyes and smiled. She was right about her.
