When the carriage headed towards the imperial city, it left quietly without alerting anyone. Forget about the royal spies who were secretly monitoring them, even the personal guards and Fei Xiao Chai did not notice that Xiao Jiu'an had left.
Ji Yunkai sat on the carriage alone, her eyes closed as she leaned against the carriage …
"He left one after another for more than two months, and has finally returned …" I wonder if boss has missed me yet. "
Fortunately, they were very close to the city gate, and Fei Xiao Chai muttered for around a quarter of an hour before entering the city.
The news of Xiao Jiu'an entering the city had long ago spread and the city gate was fully filled with people who were waiting to welcome them.
Inside the carriage, Ji Yunkai laughed silently when she heard this. The Emperor really could not wait a second. Fortunately, Xiao Jiu'an had left in time, otherwise, it would be difficult to escape when she returned to the capital.
"Of course I have important matters to attend to. Prince Yanbei, please enter the palace immediately." The guard's voice was still cold and hard, with a hint of imperceptible toughness.
Ji Yunkai laughed, and said through the door: "But the prince is not here, what do we do?"
"What?" The guard's tone suddenly changed and he fiercely rushed forward, wanting to open the carriage door, but was stopped by the guard from the Prince Yanbei's Mansion: "Impudent."
The prince isn't here?
When did the prince leave?
Although the guards of the Prince Yanbei's Mansion were also shocked, no one expressed it out loud. One by one, they calmly stepped forward and stood in front of the imperial guards.
"We are here to invite the Prince Yanbei into the palace. Are you guys trying to rebel?" The King of Swallow was not in the carriage, and the imperial guards were not courteous at all. They even took off their large hats.
"My prince is not in the carriage." The guard repeated Ji Yunkai's words.
"Where did the Prince Yanbei go?" The imperial guards didn't move, but their gazes were fixed on the carriage as if they wanted to see through it.
"This wangfei wants to use the water from Mount Yufeng to brew tea. Your highness has found it for me." The one who replied to the Emperor's guard was Ji Yunkai.
"Prince Yanbei went to Mount Yufeng?" The imperial guards naturally did not believe him, but it seemed impossible for them to ask any questions at this time.
"That's right, if there's anything urgent for the emperor, please wait for our prince to come back first." Ji Yunkai said as a matter of course, with an arrogant, pampered, and proud look on her face.
Everyone in the capital knew that the Prince Yanbei treated the Prince Yanbei's Wife like a treasure and spent a huge amount of money on him. They wanted to buy the Southern Wasteland Viper for the money they spent on him to help heal her body.
After the Devil Sect had offended the Prince Yanbei's Wife, they had even personally gone to Black Stone Mountain to avenge their Royal Concubine.
Why would it be strange for Prince Yanbei, who spoiled Prince Yanbei's Wife so much, to go to Mount Yufeng and personally fetch water for her?
The guard couldn't find any words to refute but didn't dare return empty-handed. He could only say, "Since that's the case, I'd like to request that the wangfei follow us to the palace and personally explain things to the emperor."
"Alright." Ji Yunkai knew that she had to go to the palace.
"Princess, please." When the imperial guards saw Ji Yunkai's straightforward reply, they were worried that she had deceived them. They spread out in a tacit understanding, surrounding Ji Yunkai and her group in the middle, afraid that there would be some kind of trouble.
The Prince Yanbei's Mansion's personal guards would naturally not do anything, they were not criminals, what did these guards mean by trapping them in the middle?
But before they could take action, they were stopped by Ji Yunkai: "Follow them. Go left and right to the palace.
There was no proper reason. Even the Emperor couldn't easily kill people, especially those with different surnames like Wang who wielded great power as an assassin.
When the personal guard heard this, he could only hold himself back when he thought that the king was not present.
Under the escort of the imperial guards, the group majestically headed towards the Imperial Palace, even Fei Xiaozhu was no exception.
The Prince Yanbei's Mansion's personal guards took off their weapons and followed him into the palace gate. However, they could not enter the hall, so they could only wait at the entrance.
The moment Ji Yunkai and her group stepped into the palace, the vermilion palace door slowly closed, locking everyone inside.
"I keep feeling that something is amiss." Fei Xiao Chai was not a shrewd person, but he was extremely sensitive to danger. The instant the palace doors closed, he had a bad premonition, but …
This was the Imperial Palace, no matter how brave he was, he wouldn't dare to act rashly.
Fei Xiaolei could tell that something was wrong, but the personal guards of Xiao Jiu'an could feel that the atmosphere wasn't right. But since this was the Imperial City and the Imperial Palace, no matter how fearless they were, they wouldn't dare to act rashly.
It didn't matter if they died, but if they caused trouble for the prince or the princess, it wouldn't be good.
Under the guidance of the palace maids, Ji Yunkai quickly reached the main hall. Stepping into the Inner Palace, Ji Yunkai saw a young Monarch sitting tall on a dragon throne.
The young emperor wore a bright yellow dragon robe and had a vermilion crown on his head. He had a cold expression and looked extremely unhappy.
"Greetings, your majesty. Long live the Emperor. Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor!" Ji Yunkai secretly took a deep breath and blessed the Emperor.
She really hated coming to see the emperor. Every time she came to see him, it would be like a war, very tiring …
However, in this era where power reigned supreme, she had no choice but to come.
"Who gave you the guts to not kneel when you see me!" The emperor slapped the armrest, showing his dissatisfaction.
Hearing the imperial guards' report, the emperor knew that Xiao Jiu'an had definitely returned to Yanbei. Yet, he had not received any news at all.
Xiao Jiu'an was provoking the authority of an emperor like him!
"It was the Emperor who gave him the right. Has the Emperor forgotten?" Ji Yunkai raised his head to look at the emperor, and didn't lower his head like in the past.
She knew very well that she couldn't retreat at this moment, much less give in. Once she retreated, the Emperor would definitely swallow her alive.
Furthermore, the current her doesn't need it, she has the Prince Yanbei's Mansion behind her. As long as she doesn't make any obvious mistakes, it would be very difficult for the emperor to find trouble with her …
