Even the jailer was dumbfounded.

His eyes were wide open, and he wondered if he was dreaming.

Isn't this the imperial prison?

However, he was not stupid at all. Although the palace decree said that no one was allowed to visit, Princess Chengyi would not dare to be so brazen as to turn the prison cell into a bridal chamber without the emperor's tacit permission.

Look at that pair of pillows embroidered with mandarin ducks and butterflies, the quilts adorned with flowers, the men and women dressed in red and green, and the pair of red candles on the table…

All that's missing is to put up a big "囍" (double happiness) character on the wall!

"Yan'er, Liuli, you can stay here in peace. Your mother will take care of everything."

"Just tell the jailer what you want, and someone will bring it to you."

Seeing that the prison cell was properly arranged, Princess Chengyi finally showed a slight smile, and her demeanor returned to its usual haughty and noble state. She raised her hand and snorted.

"My father has thrown you into the imperial prison. Countless people in the palace are waiting to see me make a fool of myself!"

"But I want them to know who truly reigns supreme in this palace!"

Yin Liuli and Gu Jinyan exchanged a smile.

Sure enough, it tastes just like before!

"Warden, come here."

The old woman raised her chin at the jailer, handed him a silver note, and said arrogantly,

"Look at you, you're quite capable, you should know what to do, right?"

"Serve the young master and the princess well, and His Highness will naturally reward you handsomely. But if the young master suffers even the slightest grievance, you'd better watch out!"

"Yes! Yes! Don't worry, Granny, I know what to do."

The jailer, trembling, accepted the silver note and groveled obsequiously, saying, "Even if I had the guts of a bear and the gall of a leopard, I wouldn't dare let the young master suffer any injustice!"

Another hundred-tael silver note!

The two slaps that landed on his cheeks instantly stopped hurting!

"What's that smell? It stinks!"

Cheng Yi sniffed, took out a handkerchief to cover her mouth, and said with disgust, "Warden, my son hates those filthy smells the most. Have someone clean up all the places."

"what?"

The jailer was utterly shocked.

Sister, this is the Heavenly Prison! The Heavenly Prison!

So many people eat, drink, and relieve themselves in that small cell. Some have been tortured and are covered in blood. There's nowhere to wash them. How could it not be filthy!

"Um?"

Cheng Yi's face darkened.

The jailer shuddered and immediately knelt down with a thud.

"Yes, sir! I will obey! I will immediately take men and clean the cell!"

"You're smart to know what's good for you."

The old woman from the princess's residence casually tossed him a silver note, saying arrogantly, "Work hard, this is His Highness's reward for you to have some wine."

The princess's maids also brought a lot of wine and dishes, which, together with the food brought by Madam Zhen, filled the table to the brim.

"Madam Zhen, we should stay here with the two children for a while longer. We should leave now, otherwise we won't be able to explain to the Emperor."

Princess Chengyi pulled Zhen Shi to sit down and said with a smile, "Don't worry, the Empress Dowager has also arranged for people to keep an eye on them. They won't suffer much."

Lady Zhen smiled gratefully, "Your Highness, I thank you greatly. Liuli is truly blessed thanks to Your Highness..."

Cheng Yi waved his hand with a wry smile, filled with emotion, and said...

"To be honest, Madam, I used to really dislike this girl, Liuli, but ever since last time..."

She paused suddenly, looked at Yin Liuli, and her voice choked slightly.

"Liuli almost lost her life to save Yan'er. I feel... indescribable."

"Alright, alright, let's not talk about that! It's rare for us to sit together like this, come on, let's drink!"

Looking back, every time my daughter returned from performing magic, she was exhausted, her little face pale.

Lady Zhen felt a lump in her throat and said, "Your Highness, please."

"Clatter"

The two gently clinked their glasses and each drank their wine in one gulp.

Yin Liuli and Gu Jinyan stared at each other, wide-eyed.

We haven't even started eating yet, and these two mothers are already drinking on their own?

……

"Liuli, take care of yourself."

"Yan'er, take good care of yourself and Liuli."

Before leaving, Lady Zhen and Princess Chengyi's eyes reddened again. They gave each other many instructions before finally departing.

"Junior sister, take good care of yourself."

This gave Chu Lingyun, who had little presence in the public eye, the opportunity to speak alone with Yin Liuli.

A hint of reluctance flickered across his usually cool face as he spoke in a soft voice,

"I will take good care of your wife, so you can rest assured."

"Alright, I'm leaving Mother in your care, Senior Brother!"

Yin Liuli said with a grin, then suddenly raised her hand and tapped his brow, "Senior Brother, don't always frown. I'm really fine here!"

"I'll trouble you to take good care of Liuli, Your Highness. Farewell."

Chu Lingyun nodded, suppressing her reluctance, and turned to leave.

"Ah, that feels so good!"

Feeling full and sleepy, Yin Liuli flopped onto the bed, yawning lazily. "Gu Jinyan, your mother is quite thoughtful. This bed is so comfortable!"

Gu Jinyan sat down beside her, a smile on his handsome face.

"Liuli, I'm so happy that Mother has finally changed her opinion of you!"

Yin Liuli blinked. "I never expected your mother to be so gentle..."

"That's just her personality; she's especially good to the people she likes."

Gu Jinyan smiled helplessly, "If you dislike someone, you won't give them any face at all."

I never imagined you could even conquer my mother.

Wow, Madam!

"Your Highness, Princess,"

As they were talking, a disheveled palace servant from the cell next to them knelt on the ground and pleaded, "Please have mercy, give me some food..."

Upon hearing this, all the prisoners in the cells began to clench their fists and shout.

"Give me something to eat!"

"We can't even get enough to eat every day, we beg you, Your Highness, to spare us a bite to eat!"

"Please give me some food, I haven't eaten for days..."

……

Gu Jinyan couldn't help but smile.

He got up, grabbed a few meat buns from the table, and tossed them to the nearest cells. "Catch!"

There was still a lot of food left on the table, but unfortunately the other cells were too far away.

He intended to call the jailer over and have the food delivered to each person, but out of the corner of his eye, he saw Yin Liuli flip her finger.

A flash of inspiration appeared at my fingertips.

"wear!"

With a delicate shout, her slender body moved like a phantom, passing right through the iron gate.

She turned back to look at him, "Gu Jinyan, give me all the food on the table."

Gu Jinyan, "..."

Those clear eyes held countless starlight, making his heart skip a beat.

I knew this place couldn't hold her!

Gu Jinyan hurriedly swept all the food off the table, then shouted happily at her.

"Ruri, get me out of here too!"

This girl is totally his type!

Being with her will always bring unexpected fun and surprises!

"By imperial decree...wear it!"

Yin Liuli flicked her finger, sending a beam of spiritual light onto him. "Come out."

Gu Jinyan took a deep breath. "So... we can get out already?"

The iron gate in front of him remained unchanged, and his body walked straight through the hard iron.
