"This is interesting!" Gu Momo gently pinched the note inside with her slender fingers, a playful smile curving her lips. "If this note was sent by Shao Mengying to lure us into a trap, then we'd better be careful! But if it was sent by someone who was hiding in our shadows before, then he might be waiting for us to fight against Shao Mengying and the Emperor-Slaying Alliance!"

If they are all common enemies of the Emperor-Slaying Alliance, that's fine. But I'm afraid this person may have other intentions!

“But this is also a great opportunity for us!” Li Zhanting’s dark eyes sparkled with a star-like smile as he analyzed, “The piano competition has announced the final date for tomorrow night, and the palace dungeon happens to be near the palace. If this news is true, then we will miss this opportunity to rescue the Queen’s son.”

Gu Momo seemed to have seen through Li Zhanting's thoughts, and frowned, saying, "So you want us to split up?"

If she goes to participate in the finals, the audience and the entire palace will focus on Gu Momo, and the defenses of the palace dungeon will naturally be relaxed, making it the perfect opportunity to carry out a rescue!

Li Zhanting took the note into his hand. He had already seen through Gu Momo's thoughts, but he couldn't let her take the risk. "Tomorrow I'll go and find out what's going on. We'll stick to the original plan. You go to participate in the competition and try to find a way to meet my father."

“Originally, since we both became wanted criminals in Country Y, you should have been removed from the finals list. But Shao Mengying didn’t do that. It seems they were certain we would participate in the competition, so they wanted to catch us like turtles in a jar.”

"So Momo, your place might not be safer than mine, so you have to be careful too."

Gu Momo laughed lightly: "Don't worry! I've already arranged people for the competition!"

"But what about your side..." What if this is all part of Shao Mengying's scheme?

Before Gu Momo could finish speaking, Li Zhanting interrupted her, "Let's stick to the plan and split up. Leave the rescue of the Queen's son to me. Also, since my father is in the palace, he shouldn't just stand by and do nothing."

Seeing Li Zhanting's resolute attitude, Gu Momo had no choice but to acquiesce.

That's right! The affairs of the royal palace were originally orchestrated by Li Zhanting's father. It was impossible for him not to get involved in something so important!

Even if this news is indeed a trap, Gu Momo can still help Li Zhanting.

"Okay, I'll do it your way."

...

Early in the morning, after getting up, Gu Momo immediately called Miss Mei and asked her to ask Shao Siran for a map of the palace dungeon, and also to pass on the information they had received from the mysterious person to her.

At that moment, Mei was being pestered by Gu Jingxing and Li Zixiao to go shopping with them. Having received a last-minute assignment, she had no choice but to send the two children back to the hotel first.

"Aunt Mei, what does Mommy want you to do? Why are you in such a hurry?" Gu Jingxing asked curiously in the car.

"Children shouldn't listen to adults' affairs." Realizing he was deliberately trying to trick her, Miss Mei said with a bright smile, her expression clearly saying "no discussion."

After all, those two little guys come up with so many clever ideas every day. If they found out, wouldn't they turn the palace upside down again?

Gu Jingxing knew he couldn't get any useful information out of Miss Mei, so he could only look to Li Zixiao for help.

Li Zixiao understood perfectly, but he didn't say a word until the two were taken back to the hotel.

Back at the hotel, Gu Jingxing's handsome face was slightly tense. "Why didn't you help just now? This concerns Mommy's life. We need to protect her. Shouldn't we know what she's planning to do beforehand?"

“I didn’t say I wouldn’t help.” Li Zixiao said as he took out his tablet. After opening the software, an audio clip appeared on the computer, and soon the voices of Miss Mei and the true queen came from the speakers—

"You mean we're going to the palace dungeon?" The voice clearly belonged to the Queen.

“That’s right. Sister Momo received a message from a mysterious person saying that your two sons are being held there.”

“That place is heavily guarded and has many special mechanisms. I only have the layout diagram from a few years ago, but so much time has passed, I don’t know if Shao Mengying has changed any of the mechanisms.”

"Sister Momo and the others went to save your son. In any case, it's better to have something than nothing."

"Okay, give me paper and a pen, and I'll draw."

Hearing their conversation, Li Zixiao and Li Zixiao had a general idea of ​​what would happen tomorrow.

"It seems Mommy is preparing to go to the palace dungeon to rescue someone. We can't let Mommy face this alone. We need to think of some way to reduce her stress." Gu Jingxing racked his brains and started to come up with some clever ideas.

“Go find those two fake princes.” Li Zixiao frowned, his delicate face revealing a maturity and calmness beyond his years. “No matter what, since the fake queen has arranged for two fake princes, she must ensure their safety; if something happens to the two imposter princes, the fake queen’s side will definitely be in chaos!”

"Oh right, how come I didn't think of that? Mommy and Daddy are working together from the inside out, so we can create some new chaos to keep them busy and lighten their burden. Brother, you're so smart!" Gu Jingxing couldn't help but want to pounce on him.

However, Li Zixiao misjudged his misjudgment and stood up a second before he pounced on him.

Gu Jingxing pounced on the empty sofa with a look of utter dejection.

"Hmph! It's always the same!"
