Something happened!
Lily shot a cold glance at Dong Xiang. Xiao Tianba was almost done for, and in her expectations, it was all thanks to the poison that Helian Yi had given her. The effects were quite good.Recalling the imperial edict that he had obtained from Xiao Tianba a few days ago, the corners of Lily’s mouth revealed a pleased smile. She slowly got up and walked to the bedside, took out the imperial edict from the secret compartment under her pillow and quietly hid it inside her sleeves.
He turned around and said to Dong Xiang:
“Move to Shaoyang Palace!”
“Yes, Empress!”And at that moment in Prince Xiao’s residence, Xiao Ruojun ordered someone to set up a banquet for everyone and to sit at the same table as Helian Yi. Because Yue Er received a huge shock, she was sent off to rest due to him being tired from the bumpy journey back to Prince Xiao’s residence.Helian Yi stared at the sumptuous meal on the table coldly. After a while, he picked up the chopsticks and picked up a few dishes that suited Mo Youyou’s taste, he took a sip first and felt that there were no problems, then he gave them to Mo Youyou.
Although it was a small action, Mo Youyou felt especially warm inside. She looked at Helian Yi emotionally.She was even glad that he remembered her.He then carefully fed the dishes that Helian Yi gave to her into his mouth.
Xiao Ruojun, who was standing opposite of him, was also exceptionally shocked when he saw this scene.He was very clear about who Helian Yi was, he used to be cold and cold-blooded, but he never expected that he would actually see a Helian Yi who was so considerate and gentle.He had a new understanding of the woman in front of him. Mo Youyou was indeed different from all the women he had met before.She was smart, arrogant, and not afraid of anyone. She was the only girl he had ever seen who made him feel that she was unbefitting of anything.All he had to do now was delay them. As long as today passed, no one would be able to shake his throne! Everything was up to Lily!
A strange look flashed past his eyes, but was caught by Helian Yi in the blink of an eye. He pretended to be calm and helped Mo Youyou carry the dishes. Suddenly, Helian Yi’s left ear twitched and footsteps came over.
Helian Yi lowered his eyes and looked towards the south.A uniformed Imperial Guard wearing the uniform of the Imperial Palace’s Guard hastily ran over.When Xiao Ruojun saw this person, he was shocked. Could it be that royal father had already left for the west? Lily succeeded?Without waiting for Xiao Ruojun to ask, the person cupped his fists and knelt down, “Your Highness, it’s bad! Emperor has met with an accident! ”
Xiao Ruojun was ecstatic! It was a success!He suddenly stood up, and with a hint of secret joy in his voice, he said:
“Quickly rise!” What happened to royal father? ”
“The Emperor, he’s gone!”
These three words almost made Xiao Ruojun fall to the ground without asking any questions. The Emperor is missing? How could a living person disappear?He looked at the newcomer with cold eyes and a joyful expression. In an instant, his expression turned grim and cold.“Speak clearly! Why did royal father disappear!? Today, everyone has gone to Shao Yang Palace! ”
The person was stunned for a moment. He thought for a while before replying,“Apart from the Crown Prince, no one else has met the Emperor. After all, when Crown Prince left, when Shao Yang Palace, they did not see Emperor following them out.It was only until just now, when Wanru came to deliver the Emperor’s meals, that she discovered that the Emperor was no longer in the hall.At the side, when Mo Youyou heard the guard’s words, it seemed like there would be a good show to watch. Hearing the two words “Crown Prince”, she was suspicious, the Emperor had mysteriously disappeared, if news of this spread, it would cause chaos in the world, could it be that the sky above Tong Li Kingdom was going to change?Her eyes suddenly lit up, could it be that Xiao Zhai was plotting to usurp power? Thinking about it, according to the current situation, seizing the power was also a matter of time.Looking at Xiao Ruojun quietly, Mo Youyou harrumphed coldly in her heart. Compared to the strategy, this man was thousands of miles inferior to Xiao Zhai. Compared to him, this man’s methods were still not as good as Xiao Zhai’s.Bringing her and Helian Yi into Prince Xiao’s residence today, who knows what sort of peace of mind they had. But Xiao Tianba’s disappearance must have messed up all of his plans!Coming back to his senses, Mo Youyou looked at Xiao Ruojun with a faint smile on his face.“Prince Xiao, since you still have matters to attend to, then I and the Prince will not disturb you. Thank you for your hospitality today. Also, the food in Prince Xiao’s residence is very good, I hope to be able to visit you as a guest if I have the chance. “Farewell!”
Xiao Ruojun was already confused by the guard’s words, he did not have the mood to listen to Mo Youyou’s thanks. He did not even have the time to say a few polite words, and turned to leave Prince Xiao’s residence.
At this time, if something were to go wrong in the palace, his days would be numbered!
Seeing that, Mo Youyou and Helian Yi looked at each other, and then left to look for Yue Er.Xiao Ruojun then anxiously left Prince Xiao’s residence and rushed towards the Imperial Palace.
Qiu Xiang, who had just arrived at Prince Xiao’s residence, was still unaware of what was happening inside the palace. She quickly found Yue Er’s residence while he was eating with Mo Youyou.
Seeing Yue Er curled up on the bed alone, Qiu Xiang’s heart tensed up. After pausing for a moment, she quietly opened the window and went in.
She had to complete this mission as soon as possible, since Helian Yi and his grandfather were too suspicious of one another. If Xiao Ruojun exposed any loopholes and realized that something was amiss, Yue Er’s side would definitely not be safe either.Reaching Yue Er’s bedside, Qiu Xiang shouted in a low voice:
“Second Miss!”Yue Er vaguely heard someone shouting something. She sniffed and perked up her ears to listen carefully, “Second Miss!”She suddenly opened her eyes and turned to look at the approaching person. Her eyes were wide opened as she stared at Qiu Xiang in shock.
“You, why are you here?”Qiu Xiang looked behind him, seeing that there were no movements outside, she said softly:“Empress received the news, so she sent a servant to bring you back to the palace.”
Yue Er looked down in disappointment after hearing what Qiu Xiang said. Her clean body had disappeared, what face did she still have to survive in this world? How would she have the face to meet her elder sister?
She raised her eyes and looked at Qiu Xiang, her heart was filled with suspicions.“How do you know about me?”
Qiu Xiang was startled for a moment, then took out a familiar jade pendant from her bosom and handed it to Yue Er.“Our people found this on the corner of Tong Li Kingdom’s street. They thought something must have happened to you. So I hurriedly looked for clues and found you in the ancestral hall. ”
Yue Er stared fixedly at Qiu Xiang, and when she thought about how she had been humiliated by that group of beggars, she asked coldly:
“Since you saw me, why didn’t you save me? Is that how you become slaves? My innocence has been destroyed, what’s the point in living? “Wuwuwu …”Qiu Xiang frowned, she anxiously looked at Yue Er, “Second Miss, it’s not that our people do not want to save you, it’s that Prince Jing and Princess Jing were also there at that time, and our people were heavily injured by Prince Jing. In order to protect himself, he had to escape and report back to the Empress, and ask the Empress to decide. So, when we returned, you had already been brought to Prince Xiao Palace. ”Yue Er listened to Qiu Xiang and recalled everything that had happened. She clenched her fists tightly, feeling extremely furious.
