When the day of the banquet finally arrived, Xu Xiangxiang appeared in gorgeous clothes. Her singing and dancing performance won the praise and applause of everyone. She was secretly proud of herself, thinking that her plan was half successful.

However, Hua Xiulan was not fooled by appearances. She noticed that Xu Xiangxiang had too intimate conversations with some guests, and her doubts grew. At this time, an accident happened. Someone poisoned the food, causing several guests to fall to the ground. The scene suddenly fell into chaos, and everyone suspected that it was Xu Xiangxiang's fault.

Xu Xiangxiang's eyes widened. She definitely didn't poison anyone! She explained anxiously, but no one believed her.

At this time, Hua Xiulan stood up and said, "Everyone please be patient, this matter needs to be investigated thoroughly." She assigned servants to check the food and tableware, and ordered the scene to be blocked off.

Not long after, the servants reported that they found traces of poison in the kitchen. Hua Xiulan looked at everyone sharply, "Who on earth is it? How dare they poison the mansion?"

Hua Xiulan looked at everyone and said slowly, "I know some of you have bad intentions, but I will never allow this to happen again. If the murderer doesn't come forward, don't blame me for being rude once I find out!"

There was a commotion among the crowd, but no one stepped forward to admit it.

Xu Xiangxiang was extremely anxious. She didn't want to be misunderstood, so she decided to look for evidence on her own. She quietly started investigating in the mansion and accidentally discovered a suspicious figure flashing into a remote room.

Xu Xiangxiang followed and pushed open the door, only to see a strange woman destroying evidence. Xu Xiangxiang immediately rushed forward and wrestled with the woman.

The noise attracted other people, and Hua Xiulan and the guards arrived in time. Seeing the scene in front of her, Hua Xiulan understood the truth.

It turns out that this strange woman was sent by Hua Xiulan's enemy forces to disrupt the banquet in order to discredit Hua Xiulan.

Hua Xiulan looked at Xu Xiangxiang gratefully and said, "It's all thanks to Xiangxiang this time, otherwise I would have been tricked."

Xu Xiangxiang breathed a sigh of relief; her innocence was finally proven.

The banquet finally came to an end, and people gradually dispersed, leaving only some leftovers and the lights that were not yet extinguished to witness the excitement and bustle just now. Xu Xiangxiang walked lightly and slowly walked to Hua Xiulan and sat down. Her beautiful face was now full of sorrow, her eyes were slightly red, and she was about to cry.

"Aunt..." Xu Xiangxiang called softly, her voice trembling slightly, "Although my mother is still a princess, she has no say in my marriage!" After she finished speaking, she couldn't help but feel sad, with tears welling up in her eyes.

Hua Xiulan frowned slightly, with a puzzled look on her face: "How come I can't make the decision?"

Hearing this, Xu Xiangxiang could no longer suppress her inner sadness, and burst into tears: "Wuuuu... My father took a concubine. That woman was charming and seductive. Not only was she deeply loved by my father, but she also gave birth to two sons in succession. Now there is no place for us mother and daughter in this mansion!" When she said this, she cried even more sadly, as if she wanted to vent all her grievances into tears.

Upon hearing this, Hua Xiulan's face suddenly changed and she said in astonishment: "What? Cheng Anbo actually favors his concubine over his wife? It's simply outrageous!" She was so angry that her chest heaved, and it was obvious that she was extremely indignant about this matter.

Seeing her aunt angry, Xu Xiangxiang quickly grabbed Hua Xiulan's sleeve and begged, "Aunt, please help Xiangxiang! If this goes on, Xiangxiang really doesn't know what to do..." She looked at Hua Xiulan with tears in her eyes, her eyes full of helplessness and expectation.

Hua Xiulan looked at her niece distressedly, held her hand and comforted her, "Xiangxiang, don't worry, auntie will definitely find a way for you. You go back first, I will find a chance to go to the palace to meet the emperor and ask him to do justice for you."

Xu Xiangxiang burst into tears of gratitude and kowtowed repeatedly to express her gratitude. After she left, Hua Xiulan's face gradually darkened.

She knew that this matter was thorny and that if she handled it improperly, it might backfire. But for Xiangxiang's happiness, she decided to take a risk.

The next morning, the sun shone through the thin clouds and fell on the bustling streets of the capital. The handsome Lu Yunqi and the charming Jun Yue walked side by side, slowly walking towards the Jun Mansion. The two of them could truly be called a perfect match made in heaven.

Lu Yunqi was wearing a light blue robe with fluttering sleeves, which made him look tall and slender, like an immortal walking out of a painting. The light blue fabric was of fine quality, and was embroidered with delicate dark patterns, which appeared and disappeared with his steps, adding a bit of mysterious and noble temperament.

Junyue was also wearing a light blue dress, the hem of which swayed gently in the wind, like a blooming blue flower. She had a white ribbon tied around her waist, outlining her slender waist and looking very graceful. Her long black hair was loosely tied up with a white jade hairpin, and a few strands of hair fell beside her fair cheeks, further highlighting her pretty face.

Soon, the two arrived at the gate of Jun's house. Jun Yue's face was filled with joy. She walked forward quickly and shouted loudly: "Father, mother, your daughter is back!" Her voice was clear and pleasant, like a yellow oriole singing out of a valley.

Jun Moli, who was waiting in the hall, heard his daughter's cry and hurried out to greet her. Seeing Jun Yue return safely, his heart finally settled down and he said lovingly, "Okay, I'm glad you're back." As he spoke, he turned his gaze to Lu Yunqi beside him, his eyes full of admiration.

Seeing this, Lu Yunqi hurriedly stepped forward and bowed respectfully to Jun Moli, saying, "Yunqi greets my father-in-law." Then he turned around and bowed to the lady standing next to Jun Moli, saying, "My son-in-law greets my mother-in-law."

Hua Xiulan was looking at the person in front of her with a smile on her face, and she kept saying, "It's good that you're back. It's good that you're back! I finally got you back, and it's worth it for my Yue'er to wait for so long." As she spoke, she enthusiastically pulled the other person inside, "Come in and sit down, you must be exhausted from the journey, right?"

After entering the house, Hua Xiulan hurriedly said, "Mother has specially made your favorite cakes for you. Go and see if they suit your taste." After that, she led Junyue towards the table where the cakes were placed.

Jun Yue looked at the exquisite pastries on the table, her heart deeply moved, and she couldn't help but say, "Mother, you are so good to me." As she spoke, her eyes were slightly red.

"Yuer is back!" With a kind and gentle call, Xie Yuner slowly walked out of the lobby holding a chubby baby. Her face was filled with the radiance of maternal love, and her eyes were full of joy and doting.

"Yue'er greets sister-in-law." Jun Yue bowed slightly, with the corners of her mouth raised, revealing a sweet smile. That smile was as beautiful and charming as a flower blooming in spring, making people love it.

"No need to be so polite, come and take a look at this little guy." Xie Yun'er gently patted the back of the child in her arms and said to Jun Yue with a smile.

Junyue walked up quickly and looked at the little nephew carefully. He had a round face like a ripe apple, a pair of big watery eyes looking around curiously, and a cherry mouth under his small nose blowing bubbles from time to time, looking very cute.

"Oh, my little nephew is so cute!" Jun Yue couldn't help but reach out and gently pinch the child's pink cheek, making him giggle. The clear and pleasant laughter echoed in the entire lobby like a silver bell, melting people's hearts.

"Oh my, when can you get pregnant?" Xie Yun'er said jokingly with a smile on her face, her eyes full of curiosity and anticipation.

Jun Yue blushed slightly and responded coquettishly: "Sister-in-law, don't be anxious! How can such a thing happen just like that?" She lowered her head slightly, fiddling with the corners of her clothes with her hands unconsciously, appearing a little shy and embarrassed.

Hearing this, Jun Yue's face turned even redder, and she muttered softly, "I also hope to have my own child soon..." Seeing this, Xie Yun'er hurriedly comforted her, "Don't worry, sister, it will happen naturally when the time comes. How about this, I will accompany you to the temple tomorrow to pray and pray for the gods' blessings." Jun Yue nodded, and a glimmer of hope rose in her heart.

The next day, the two came to the temple. They knelt down and prayed devoutly, hoping to get pregnant. At this time, a monk passed by, looked at Jun Yue, smiled and said: "Madam, you look good, I believe there will be good news soon." After hearing this, Jun Yue was secretly happy. After bidding farewell to the monk, Jun Yue and Xie Yuner left the temple together.

A month later, Jun Yue felt very unwell. Lu Yunqi asked a doctor to take her pulse and was overjoyed to learn that Jun Yue was pregnant.

After that, Junyue took good care of her pregnancy. Xie Yuner often came to visit her and taught her some parenting tips.

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, Junyue's due date has arrived, and the whole family is nervous.

After a day and a night of agony, Jun Yue finally gave birth to twins. The children cried loudly and were healthy and cute. Jun Yue and Lu Yunqi held the children, their eyes full of tears of happiness. From then on, Jun Yue lived a life of taking care of her husband and children, and the family lived happily.

Hua Xiulan and Jun Moli lived their old age happily.

The emperor also found his true love. He successfully crowned her as the queen. Among the three thousand beauties in the harem, he only favored her. It was rumored that the queen looked very much like Jun Yue.

As for Xu Xiangxiang and her mother, Princess Changning, they had already moved out of Cheng'an Earl's Mansion.

Princess Changning and Earl Cheng'an divorced.

Lu Yunnan married a girl from a good family and gave birth to a daughter the following year.

Since then, they have lived a stable life.
