Xiangxing and Cuihe were waiting outside, carrying some desserts and hot tea. When they saw her come out of the bathroom, they immediately presented the items with both hands: "Your Majesty, you haven't gotten out of bed all day. Please eat something to nourish your body."
Yu Qianqian casually grabbed a phoenix tail pastry and asked as she walked, "Have you ever seen what the Emperor is busy with?"
"Your Majesty, I heard that after the morning court session today, His Majesty left the palace directly with Guard Xiao. As for the exact route, I don't know much about it." Xiangxing answered truthfully, and then secretly winked at Cuihe, signaling her to come out with her.
However, Cuihe, who hadn't noticed this at first glance, immediately replied, "This servant knows about this matter. Before coming here, I met the Emperor on the way with a group of Imperial Guards, carrying guns and clubs. They looked like they were about to fight to the death, and their faces didn't look good either."
Upon hearing these words, Yu Qianqian turned around abruptly, her sharp gaze instantly fixed on Cuihe's face. A sense of fear welled up in her heart. Perhaps it was because they had just experienced a life-or-death separation that she now seemed somewhat anxious and uncertain.
She quickly composed herself, casually lifted a few strands of beaded curtains, and looked out the door. However, looking out for nearly a hundred miles, all she could see was an empty square.
As night fell again, she left Luochen Palace, sat quietly on the veranda, and watched the sun set, the evening glow fade, and the stars twinkle in the sky. A long time passed, but she still did not see the person she longed for.
"It's so strange. A perfectly healthy person just disappears like that. Where did they go?" She gripped the railing with both hands, her eyes lowered, and her deep sigh echoed clearly in the silent night.
Following the sigh, she leaned forward, resting against the railing. It had been a long time since she had enjoyed such quiet solitude. She unconsciously closed her eyes, letting a gentle breeze surround her, and became deeply immersed in the moment.
She didn't pay much attention for a moment, and even when Mu Beichen walked towards her from a distance, she was completely unaware. With a casual turn, she inexplicably felt something tighten around her waist.
Before she could even cry out, a quick, excited shout, punctuated by a short, sharp tone, suddenly rang out close to her ear: "My darling, I've finally found you!"
Yu Qianqian was slightly taken aback, and turned around blankly following his voice, her eyes wide with surprise: "Mu Beichen..."
At this moment, Mu Beichen, tightly entwined with the person in his arms, suddenly pressed his hands against her ample breasts, his voice trembling slightly as he spoke.
"Qianqian, did you miss me?"
"I didn't expect it!" Yu Qianqian was holding her breath and didn't want to give him any face at all. She turned her face to the side and replied to him decisively.
Mu Beichen's hand suddenly recoiled, and he remained silent for a long time. Even when she was angry, she was still quite attractive. He leaned his head to look at her cheek and couldn't help but kiss her: "Qianqian, you've become even more womanly."
Yu Qianqian instinctively pushed his hand away, turned around, and glared at him with resentment. She gave him a cold snort and said, "Can you compare to Miss Ye from the Marquis of Ding'an's mansion?"
