"Princess, Lord Jun requests to see you." A palace maid said respectfully.

"No!" The woman sitting in front of the dressing table responded indifferently without even looking up. She was beautiful and noble, but her eyes revealed a trace of fatigue and sadness.

"Princess... Lord Jun said that Madam Jun is dying." The maid spoke carefully, fearing to anger the depressed princess.

"What?" The woman stood up suddenly, her face as pale as paper. "Why didn't I receive the message?" She widened her eyes, her voice filled with disbelief and anger.

The maid lowered her head, not daring to look the princess in the eye: "I don't know, but since Lord Jun has come in person, the situation must be critical."

The princess bit her lip, a trace of pain and determination flashed in her eyes. She took a deep breath, then slowly sat back at the dressing table, her hands clenched into fists.

After a moment's silence, the princess asked softly, "Where is he now?"

The maid replied, "She is waiting outside the palace."

The princess nodded, her expression calmed down, and a gleam of determination flashed in her eyes: "Let him in."

Jun Moli walked into the palace and saw Hua Xiulan sitting there with a cold face. He hurried forward and saluted, "Meet the princess." The princess raised her chin slightly, "Sir Jun, what do you want from me?" Sir Jun lowered his head and said, "Grandmother... wants to see the princess for the last time." The princess felt a pain in her heart. Although she was dissatisfied with this marriage, she still had feelings for Madam Jun.

"Lead the way." The princess stood up and followed Jun Moli out of the palace.

Arriving at the Grand Tutor's Mansion, the princess went straight to Madam Jun's room. The old lady was already breathing weakly. Seeing the princess coming, she tried to open her eyes and a smile appeared on her face. The princess held the old lady's hand and tears welled up in her eyes.

The old lady used up her last bit of strength to say, "Princess, thank you... for coming to see me. Promise me... that you and Li'er will live a good life..." The princess choked and nodded, "I will, grandma..." After saying that, the old lady closed her eyes and left the world forever.

Hua Xiulan walked out of the room with a heavy heart. Jun Moli followed her, and the two were silent. At this time, the sky began to rain, as if mourning the departure of Madam Jun. The princess looked up at the sky and let the rain wet her face. Could this rain also wash away the pain in her heart...

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and the princess's skirt was soaked. Jun Moli couldn't help but put his hand gently around the princess' shoulders and felt her body trembling.

The princess turned to look at him, her eyes flickering with mixed emotions.

"I will take care of my grandmother's funeral." Jun Moli said in a low voice.

The princess nodded silently, and the two stood quietly in the rain for a while.

"I'm going back to the palace." The princess said calmly. After returning to the palace, the princess changed into clean clothes and came to the garden.

Looking at the flowers in the garden, the princess remembered what her grandmother once said to her, "Life is like the flowers in this garden. There are times when they bloom and times when they wither. But no matter what, you must face it with strength."

The princess took a deep breath, with a determined light in her eyes. She decided to go to Chengqian Palace and ask the emperor to re-issue the decree so that she could marry Jun Moli again. This time, she would bravely pursue the happiness she really wanted.

When she stepped into the palace, the emperor was sitting on the dragon throne, frowning slightly, as if he was somewhat puzzled and dissatisfied with her arrival. After the princess bowed respectfully, she mustered up the courage to speak: "Father, please take back your order and let me marry Jun Moli again!"

The emperor stared at her with wide eyes, looking at her in disbelief. He could never have imagined that his most beloved and precious daughter would make such an absurd request. He asked angrily: "Don't you know that this man has deeply hurt you? Why are you still so stubborn?"

The princess' eyes were slightly red, but she still said firmly: "I know, but I believe he has changed. Moreover, I still love him deeply... Please help us!"

The emperor sighed and shook his head helplessly. He couldn't understand his daughter's persistence, and he didn't want to see her get hurt again. But facing the princess's plea, he couldn't bear to refuse. In the end, he agreed to her request.
