Rebirth of Her Royal Highness the Princess

Chapter 246 The Concubine Leaves the Palace

"Lan'er, are you envious?" Jun Moli looked at Hua Xiulan with a dazed look in her eyes, his lips slightly raised, and asked with a hint of sarcasm.

When Hua Xiulan heard this, a trace of discomfort flashed across her face, but she still pretended to be calm and answered, "What are you envious of?" She thought to herself, how could she be envious? It's just that seeing others happy makes her feel a little emotional.

"Xue Ning and Xiao Yi are now married, so naturally..." Jun Moli deliberately dragged out his voice, looking at Hua Xiulan with a smile, his eyes flashing with an elusive light. He seemed to be waiting for Hua Xiulan's reaction, and seemed to be testing her patience.

Hua Xiulan's heartbeat accelerated involuntarily. She didn't know how to respond to Jun Moli's words. She knew what Jun Moli wanted to say, but she couldn't be sure of her true thoughts. She couldn't help but fall into deep thought, and her thoughts gradually drifted away.

"Of course they are very loving." Jun Moli finally finished his words and observed Hua Xiulan's expression.

Hua Xiulan turned her head away from Jun Moli's sight and said softly, "That's their business. It has nothing to do with me."

After hearing this, Jun Moli chuckled, "Lan'er, let's go to bed. We drank a little too much tonight."

Hua Xiulan was shocked. She didn't expect Jun Moli to say that suddenly. She looked at Jun Moli and saw that his eyes were full of seriousness.

She hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded and said, "Let's go."

The curve of Jun Moli's mouth deepened. He gently pulled Hua Xiulan's hand and said, "That's great. Let's go." After that, he took Hua Xiulan out of the garden.

Even after being married for so many years, Jun Moli and Hua Xiulan have always been like newlyweds.

The next morning, the sun shone through the window onto the bed, and Concubine Xian had packed her bags and was ready to leave the palace. This move attracted everyone's attention, because according to convention, concubines in the harem were not allowed to leave the palace at will, but Concubine Xian had obtained special permission from the emperor and the empress dowager, and she would go to Prince Duan's mansion.

"Princess, Prince Consort, Concubine Xian has left the palace!" Chun Tao shouted loudly while standing outside the bedroom.

In the bedroom, Hua Xiulan and Jun Moli were sleeping in each other's arms, their eyes blurred, their breaths intertwined. Hearing Chuntao's voice, they asked in unison: "Is mother here at Jun's residence?"

"No, Concubine Dowager Xian went to Prince Duan's Mansion and sent someone to inform you to bring the young master and young lady with you." Chun Tao replied.

"Got it." Jun Moli replied lazily. However, his hands were tightly around Hua Xiulan, unwilling to let go. He tried to kiss Hua Xiulan, wanting to start a morning of intimacy.

"Stop making trouble. My mother is still waiting for you at Prince Duan's Mansion." Hua Xiulan gently pushed Jun Moli away, a blush on her face.

"Lan'er." Jun Moli called out in dissatisfaction, then buried his head in Hua Xiulan's warm arms, like a coquettish big cat.

Hua Xiulan smiled helplessly and stroked Jun Moli's hair, "Okay, get up quickly, don't let mother wait too long."

After they got up, washed and tidied themselves up, they took the children to Prince Duan's Mansion.

Junyao is now eight years old and has gradually become sensible, while Junyue is only five years old and is very active.

The family of four sat quietly in the carriage. Although Jun Yue was lively by nature, she did not dare to act up at this moment, because she was afraid of Hua Xiulan's sharp eyes.

The carriage slowly drove to the outside of Prince Duan's Mansion, where the butler was already waiting respectfully outside the door.

"This old servant greets the eldest princess, the prince consort, the young master and the young lady." The butler bowed respectfully.

"Butler, there's no need to be so polite. Has my mother arrived?" Hua Xiulan asked softly.

"Princess, the Concubine Dowager has arrived and is waiting in the Plum Garden," the butler replied.

Hua Xiulan nodded and led her family to the plum garden. Along the way, Jun Yue looked around curiously, while Jun Yao remained quiet and well-behaved.

Entering the plum garden, everyone saw Concubine Xian sitting in a pavilion by the lake, admiring the blooming plum blossoms.

Hua Xiulan and the children came forward to pay their respects. Concubine Dowager Xian smiled and asked them to stand up. She took Jun Yue's hand and asked about some trivial matters in life, and praised Jun Yao a few words.

"My sister and brother-in-law are here." Prince Duan looked at the perfect couple in front of him with a smile and said gently. His voice revealed his kindness and concern for his family.

Afterwards, he and Princess Duan walked towards the plum garden. Their steps were light and graceful, as if they were walking on clouds, and every step was filled with warmth and happiness.

When they entered the plum garden, Hua Xiulan and Jun Moli came to greet them. They bowed their heads slightly, saluted Prince Duan and Princess Duan, and called out in unison, "Fifth Brother, Fifth Sister-in-law."

Then, a cute little boy came running over. He was wearing gorgeous brocade clothes, with a handsome face and lively eyes. He was Jun Yao. After respectfully paying his respects to Prince Duan and Princess Duan, he couldn't wait to pull up the little girl beside him and ran happily to them.

Jun Yao's face was filled with a bright smile, and he shouted excitedly: "Jun Yao meets uncle and aunt."

Jun Yue at the side was not to be outdone. She blinked her big eyes and said in a baby voice, "Jun Yue meets uncle and aunt."

Prince Duan smiled and nodded in response. His eyes were full of love, and he seemed to be particularly fond of the two children.

"No need to be so polite, we are all family." Prince Duan said gently, his tone full of the warmth of family affection.

At this time, Princess Duan said, "Yao'er, Yue'er, do you want to go play with your brother?"

Hearing this, Jun Yao immediately grabbed his sister's hand and replied happily, "Okay!" Then, the brother and sister skipped towards the inner room, ready to go play with Princess Duan's son.

In this way, the family sat together in the plum garden, enjoying the rare time together, with laughter and joy echoing in the air...

"Why did my mother leave the palace today?" Hua Xiulan looked at her mother, Concubine Xian, with doubts and worries in her heart. She knew that as a concubine, her mother rarely left the palace, not to mention that she took the initiative to ask to leave the palace this time.

Concubine Xian smiled slightly, with a hint of tenderness in her eyes: "I want to leave the palace and stay in Prince Duan's mansion."

As soon as these words came out, the four people present all showed shocked expressions. They looked at each other, and a sense of uneasiness surged in their hearts.

After all, it is no small matter for the concubine to leave the palace. If she does not get the permission of the emperor and the empress dowager, it is a serious crime!

Hua Xiulan quickly grabbed Concubine Xian's hand and asked anxiously, "Mother, have you received the orders from the Emperor and the Queen Mother?"

Concubine Xian gently patted Hua Xiulan's hand and comforted her, "Of course."

"Xing'er and Yue'er won't dislike their mother, right?" Concubine Dowager Xian said as she looked at the two with loving eyes.

"What are you talking about, mother? This is your home." Prince Duan and Princess Duan looked at each other and spoke in unison.

"Since mother has left the palace, you can come to Jun Mansion and stay for a few days when you have time. What do you think, mother?" Jun Moli looked at Concubine Dowager Xian and said with a faint smile on his lips.

"Good, good, good, they are all good children." Concubine Xian was so moved that her eyes moistened and she nodded repeatedly. She looked at the children in front of her, her heart filled with relief and joy. They were all so filial, which made her feel extremely happy.

Time passed quickly, and it was time for lunch. The maids came in with exquisite dishes and filled the table. The children were also brought over to eat together.

Concubine Xian smiled and said, "Children, come and eat! These dishes are your favorites." Everyone sat down and began to enjoy lunch.
