The girl moved slowly, but still like a monkey. She reached out to pick a few fruits, sat on the tree and started eating.
In front of the window of Qinyan Palace, Xiao Yun and Feng Ming were watching this scene. The atmosphere in the palace was weird and awkward, and there was no sound at all.
Fengming's hands behind his back seemed to be a little sore, so he secretly let go of them.
Xiao Yun looked at the girl's shadow, and suddenly all his psychological defenses collapsed in an instant.
He covered his face with his hands, and his voice was filled with tears, making Fengming unsure whether Xiao Yun had cried or not.
"I must have missed Qiao Yuange too much, I even had hallucinations. It's all my fault, I'm so cowardly! Qiao Yuange, where are you, wuwuwu..."
Fengming just felt a little speechless.
He said to Xiao Yun: "Your Highness. Let's just say, is it possible that this is not an illusion?"
"Is it possible that it was Miss Qiao?"
"Is there a possibility that Miss Qiao has never left the palace?"
Fengming, a cold and indifferent man, was quite kind to say these words at this time and help the emperor analyze the situation.
But Xiao Yun cried and shook his head and said, "No, not at all! Qiao Yuange is a strong-willed person. When she heard that I was going to have a woman, she would rather starve to death than stay in the palace. She was so determined before, it is impossible for her to come back."
After saying this, Xiao Yun also put down his hand, grabbed Feng Ming's hand and said, "Please, you must find Qiao Yuange. I don't want to spend the women of my country. Let Qiao Yuange change his mind, okay?"
Fengming sighed and looked in the direction of the fruit tree. Sure enough, Qiao Yuange had disappeared.
He shook his head slightly and said, "Your Highness, I'm afraid you have to keep these women."
"Why?" Xiao Yun asked unconvinced.
Feng Ming walked to the table, picked up the letter he had just read, opened it, and handed it to Xiao Yun, saying, "This is a letter I found among the girls who are about to enter the palace. This letter is specially for you, but it is with one of the girls."
"The Emperor of Huawu Country seems to know that you will not want these girls. This is their last amulet..."
"Your sister, the Grand Princess, is in their hands."
Feng Ming said this slowly for a moment, and Xiao Yun's crying expression suddenly stopped.
He frowned and asked in a cold voice: "Mrs. Xiao? She..."
He was just about to ask why Xiao Taiyi was in the enemy country.
But suddenly I remembered that indeed so many things had happened in the palace recently, but there was no sign of Madam Xiao.
Even when the Queen Mother was imprisoned, Xiao Taiyi did not show up.
According to Mrs. Xiao's personality, she was locked up after her death, so she naturally came here to make a fuss, which could be regarded as her last struggle.
Did Xiao Taiyi already invade the enemy country when he wasn't paying attention?
Why didn’t the Queen Mother notice it?
Although Empress Xiao had not been in the palace since she was a child, everyone had gotten used to it. Perhaps that was why no one noticed her abnormality this time.
Because I'm not used to her existence at all.
"Is this...really true?"
Xiao Yun asked slowly.
He was a little bit unconvinced by this situation.
If it was someone else, it would be fine, but Xiao Taiyi was the legitimate princess of their country. It was impossible for her to sneak into the enemy country, right?
Feng Ming nodded and said, "Actually... when the princess was in Guo Temple, she met Master An several times. Master An was in poor health at the time, and he always went to Guo Temple with his mother to burn incense. The princess rarely met people. It was so nice to meet a man of similar age, and they became familiar with each other."
"Maybe through Master An, the princess was deceived and kidnapped to the enemy country?"
Fengming said slowly.
Xiao Yun gritted his teeth in anger.
He originally wanted to chop off the women sent by Huawu Kingdom to intimidate the king of Huawu Kingdom and prove his sincerity to Qiao Yuange.
Now, Xiao Taiyi has become a hostage of Huawu country. How can this be considered?
The letter clearly stated that the princess was young and ignorant and had gone to Huawu Kingdom on her own, but because she was Xiao Yun's younger sister, she would naturally be treated well.
The letter also expressed the hope that the two countries would have friendly relations.
Although there was no mention of Xiao Yun treating these women well, the letter was placed on this woman, which served as a talisman for these women.
Xiao Yun slammed his hands on the table, turned his head and said to Feng Ming: "Hey, let's go to the Queen Mother to have a quarrel. This old thing is acting crazy and stupid all day long, and she eats a lot! I want to see how she has the nerve to sit on the throne of the Queen Mother, and whether she plans to live alone in the National Temple with the Concubine!"
"Well, that, Miss Qiao..."
Fengming pointed outside the window, but Xiao Yun had already walked out, as if he didn't hear what Xiao Yun said.
The wind was a bit strong at night.
Compared to the hot weather a few days ago, it seems to be a bit cooler like autumn now.
In the Yangxin Palace, the Queen Mother sat in the main hall and got angry at Aunt Hua: "Why, I have finally figured out that the Queen Mother's position is just a decoration! I can't even have some cakes? What does Xiao Yun mean by this? Is he planning to kill me?"
Aunt Hua frowned and said, "But...the two maids who brought the snacks said that a senior maid brought the food over, saying that you were in a hurry to eat, but for some reason, you just didn't eat."
"Maid? Where can there be a maid in the palace?"
The Queen Mother was so angry that she retorted.
Aunt Hua said very seriously, "The two maids said that the eldest maid was very beautiful and the material she was wearing was very expensive."
"In the harem, the only one who can be a beauty or a maid is Qiao Yuange. Could it be her?"
The Queen Mother thought for a moment and asked.
Aunt Hua shook her head and said, "It's impossible. When she heard that Huawu Kingdom was going to send a few girls, Qiao Yuange left the palace in a rage. Now the emperor is looking for someone. I heard from the Yun family that the emperor has turned the capital upside down and asked everyone not to use the name Qiao Yuange. This name can only belong to Qiao Yuange."
"What a waste of time!" The Queen Mother couldn't help but grumble, and then said: "It would have been better to let Xiao Yun die in the first place."
Just as she said this, she saw the door of the Yangxin Palace was pushed open. Before the maid had time to report, Xiao Yun had already strode in and said to the Queen Mother, "That is disappointing. I don't want to die now. This time, I have to have a good talk with you."
The Queen Mother was already filled with rage, and when she saw Xiao Yun coming, she said coldly, "Isn't it enough that you have locked me up?"
