"Come here, take the third princess away and lock her up to learn etiquette. No mistakes will be made."
As soon as Concubine De finished speaking, several maids from Jinxiu Palace rushed over, took Xiao Daifu's arm, and walked out.
Xiao Daifu had never thought that just because she went to see Anle, her mother would be so angry. This shouldn't be the case!
"Mother, you can't do this to me." Xiao Daifu was dragged out. She struggled to resist but was powerless.
Her personal maid was even taken away by Defei's men to do work elsewhere.
After Xiao Daifu was taken away, the maidservant beside Concubine De thought about it and felt that it was inappropriate. She persuaded her master, "Your Majesty, if His Majesty knew about this, it would be bad..."
Concubine De snorted coldly on her gentle face, "She's about to get engaged, yet she's still hanging out with that Anle all day. What good can that do? I'm afraid Anle will know that the Third Princess is going to be betrothed to the Wang family and will encourage her to do something to disobey me. I will never allow such a thing to happen."
It was precisely because Concubine De was determined to have Xiao Daifu marry into the Wang family that she deliberately sent people to keep an eye on the third princess.
Tao Yuwei sent her maid Yunxiao to inform the third princess to come out of the palace to meet her, and the news soon reached Concubine De's ears.
Concubine De was afraid that if the third princess got close to Tao Yuwei, she would become influenced by the company she kept and learn Tao Yuwei's reckless way of doing things.
Seeing that her master could not be persuaded, the senior palace maid had no choice but to give up.
It’s just a pity for Xiao Daifu. She couldn’t even go back to her own palace and was locked up in an unfamiliar palace.
For her as a princess, this was like being in prison.
night.
Tao Yuwei was lying in bed, unable to fall asleep, so she once again mobilized her mental power and summoned the night-flying birds to come out and chat with her.
She first gathered some bats to chat and get some gossip.
"Bat Lady, is there anything interesting happening in the city tonight? It's so boring."
Tao Yuwei leaned sideways, resting her hand on one side of her head, looking at the two bats crawling on the windowsill and asked.
[Would you like to hear about the family affairs of the newly appointed Minister of Rites? ]
Tao Yuwei was stunned by the bat's words.
She suddenly remembered that the former Minister of Rites Gao Huaizhen had been imprisoned for suspected crimes, his son Gao Chengan had died, and the others had been demoted to commoners.
[Of course you should listen, and of course you should watch if there's excitement.]
Upon hearing this, the two bats lying on the windowsill flew into her room, catching mosquitoes to eat while chatting and gossiping with her.
Zhu Zhongyuan, the newly appointed Minister of Rites, has an interesting harem. His only beloved son, Zhu Hehua, is not only a dandy, but he also went so far as to ridiculously sleep with his father's new concubine.
[Furthermore, the wife of the Minister of Rites even helped cover up what happened tonight.]
Tao Yuwei opened her eyes wide after hearing this and asked curiously, "Will it take a long time?"
Her gossip level left the bat speechless.
[Not long, less than the time of an incense stick.]
Tao Yuwei turned over, lay flat on her back, and said in a gloomy tone, "Ah, it seems it's useless. Another silver spear wax head. Time is too short."
After the two bats flew away, she summoned a weasel.
[Girl, I have some very important news. Are you interested?]
The weasel that entered the house was very agile and crawled very quickly on the high wall of her house. It not only successfully avoided the sight of the patrolmen guarding the house, but also when it came to her yard, it jumped nimbly onto the windowsill.
What benefits do you want?
Tao Yuwei knew that the weasel was very smart, so she asked it directly.
[Hehe! The little girl is still smart. Just give me a live chicken.]
Yes, it turns out that weasels and chickens are the best match.
[Alright, I agree to your request. What's the news? Tell me now!]
Tao Yuwei couldn't wait to find out the secret.
Before the weasel walked away, it looked around with a sly look in its eyes and its voice became very low.
[Just an hour ago, someone drugged the princess of Prince Yong's mansion's soup. I saw her drink it with my own eyes.]
Tao Yuwei was so shocked by the news that she sat up in bed.
[Okay, I'll take your message. As for the live chicken, I'll get it for you right now.]
Tao Yuwei quickly got out of bed, quietly ran to the kitchen, took out a live chicken from the chicken coop, and gave it to the weasel.
After getting the benefit, the weasel bit the chicken's neck, thanked Tao Yuwei, and left the general's mansion excitedly.
When Tao Yuwei got the news, she couldn't sleep anymore.
The villain's mother was in danger last time, but she was fine after taking the medicine she gave her.
It would have been fine if she didn't know about this incident, but now that she has received this news, she has to tell the villain no matter what.
He is a sharp sword used to deal with those beasts in human form.
With him around, she could save a lot of time and effort in dealing with those troubles.
Tao Yuwei simply didn't sleep, but changed into a black nightgown and slipped out of the house at night.
When she climbed into Prince Yong's mansion, she was dumbfounded.
As expected of Prince Yong’s Mansion, it was so huge that she got lost.
I don't know where the villain lives.
After dodging the patrol, he wandered around Prince Yong's mansion but still had no clue.
She mobilized her mental power and summoned a mouse, which led her to a deserted courtyard.
Shortly after entering the hospital, a black shadow appeared in the yard in the blink of an eye.
Holding a long sword, he slashed at her directly.
Tao Yuwei saw who was coming, her figure flashed, she hid aside, and said to the person in a cold voice, "This princess has an urgent matter to discuss with your master, go and wake him up."
Hei Yan was stunned. He was about to swing the sword out again, but he forcibly retracted it. He was also forced to take several steps back by his own sword energy.
"Princess Anle? My master has gone to bed. You can tell me if you have anything to say."
Tao Yuwei was very dissatisfied with Hei Yan's rigid attitude.
Doesn't this guy have a brain? If there is really nothing wrong, who would come out to look for someone at night?
Hei Yan saw her glaring at him speechlessly, and didn't think there was anything wrong with his decision.
In his opinion, the safety and health of his master comes first.
Princess Anle is sometimes unreliable. She broke into the palace in the middle of the night, probably wanting to ask her master to help her clean up the mess.
Hei Yan held the sword in his arms and stood in front of the door about ten meters away, with an attitude that said if there was something to say, then it would be a matter of conversation, otherwise, just leave quickly.
Well, what's the point of getting entangled with a cold and wooden person who can't adapt.
Wouldn't it be better to tell others the news and go back to sleep quickly?
The anger that was aroused in Tao Yuwei's heart disappeared in an instant.
"Tell your master that his mother has been poisoned. If she is not treated, it will probably be too late."
Tao Yuwei said this angrily, turned around and was about to leave, but heard the sound of the door opening behind her.
