"If everyone hopes to live a better life in the next life, then what is the meaning of this life? Shouldn't the meaning of life be in the present?"
Little Shuangbao was still thinking hard.
"quack!"
The little fur ball yawned loudly at her words. "Shuangbao, you've made me sleepy. Let's go back to the palace. I'm hungry!"
"Oh, Shuangbao just can't figure it out for the moment."
Xiao Shuangbao didn't dwell on this issue anymore.
If you can’t figure it out, we’ll talk about it later.
She took the little fur ball out with her.
"Little princess, are you okay?"
Chen Cao was guarding outside. When he saw her come out, he immediately stepped forward, glanced behind her with some surprise, and asked, "Where's Lianbao? Why didn't he come out with the little princess?"
"What? She ran out a long time ago. Didn't Sister Chen Cao see her?"
When Xiao Shuangbao heard this, he was shocked.
"I didn't see her come out."
Chen Cao shook his head.
"Oh no, is she okay?"
Xiao Shuangbao suddenly had a bad feeling.
"There must be another way out here."
As Chen Cao said this, he went into the yard.
Xiao Shuangbao also followed in.
Soon, the two found a back door, which was in the back room behind the main house.
"It seems that Lianbao ran away from here, but why did she abandon the princess and run away by herself?"
Chen Cao was puzzled by this.
Xiao Shuangbao then told the story of what had just happened.
"Humph, this Lianbao really has evil intentions towards the little princess."
Chen Cao was not surprised by this. "The little princess wasn't hurt, was she?"
Although she knew Xiao Shuangbao's ability, she still subconsciously asked with concern.
"Shuangbao is fine, but why did Lianbao run away from here?"
Little Shuangbao stared at the back door, feeling puzzled, "What good would it be for her to harm me?
"Or, she harmed this princess and needs to leave through this door, avoid Sister Chen Cao, and seek help from someone?"
She unconsciously changed the way she addressed herself, but seemed unaware of it.
But Chen Cao realized it.
She couldn't help but raise her eyebrows, a smile appearing between her brows.
Because this means that Xiao Shuangbao has finally completely accepted her identity as a royal princess and is no longer just the Xiao Shuangbao of the past.
In the future, she might learn to make better use of her dignity as a royal princess to get things done.
"Didn't the little princess say that Zhao Yang'er had an affair with the prefect of Jingzhao Prefecture? Perhaps this Lianbao's background is not simple."
Chen Cao analyzed, "In my opinion, Lian Bao either went to seek help from the prefect of Jingzhao Prefecture, or returned to the Duke of Ying's Mansion for help.
“But this place is too far from the Duke of England’s palace.
"On the contrary, Jingzhao Prefecture is only a few steps away from here."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Shuangbao immediately nodded in agreement.
She was still too naive. She never doubted Lianbao's background and never calculated it.
At this time, she pinched her little finger and counted quickly.
"Really? Sister Chen Cao, you're amazing! You can guess it without even having to do any math! This Lianbao really isn't Wei Yunqing's biological daughter. She's the illegitimate daughter of Zhao Yang'er and the prefect of Jingzhao Prefecture!"
Little Shuangbao couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
She then frowned again and said with a look of disgust, "Fortunately, Wei Yunqing has been sent away by this princess to be reincarnated!
"Otherwise, how sad would he feel after hearing this?
"Even though he said his mother-daughter relationship with Zhao Yang'er is over, he must be feeling bad inside...
"No, this princess is a little angry!
"How could Zhao Yang'er and Lian Bao be so mean?
"One of them is cheating on the honest and upright Wei Yunqing, and the other one knows full well that Wei Yunqing is not her biological father, yet she still wants to use Wei Yunqing to avenge herself and harm this princess!
"Fortunately, Wei Yunqing is kind-hearted and doesn't want to harm anyone!
"Otherwise, I'll be used to death by this disgusting mother and daughter!"
Xiao Shuangbao was rarely so angry, which showed that she was really angry and really hated Zhao Yanger and her daughter.
Thinking that Zhao Yang'er was still in the palace and might pester Emperor Cheng Xuan at any time, Chen Cao suddenly felt a chill.
She and Xiao Shuangbao share the same hatred for the enemy.
She likes whatever Xiao Shuangbao likes.
She also hated what Xiao Shuangbao hated.
"Little Princess, there's no time to lose. I'll take you to Jingzhao Prefecture to retrieve Lianbao, shall I? This girl may be young, but she's already scheming. If she complains later, saying that the little princess deliberately harmed her and that's why she fled to Jingzhao Prefecture for refuge, it might even get to the Emperor, which would damage the little princess's reputation."
Chen Cao said with a frown.
"Well! This princess doesn't care about reputation, but this princess will never allow Daddy to be deceived by this mother and daughter!"
As the master and servant spoke, they immediately boarded a carriage and headed for Jingzhao Prefecture.
The prefect of Jingzhao Prefecture has not changed over the years.
The prefect's surname was Tang, and his name was Tang Defan.
When Xiao Shuangbao arrived, Tang Defan got the news and came out to greet him in advance.
"Your subordinate respectfully welcomes Princess Lingfu. May the princess live a thousand years."
As soon as Tang Defan saw Xiao Shuangbao, he made a big scene and asked all the officials of Jingzhao Prefecture, including the chief constables and yamen runners, to kneel down and pay their respects to her. The scene was so grand that passers-by could not help but stop and watch.
"Stand up."
Little Shuangbao frowned.
She is young and doesn't understand the twists and turns involved.
But Chen Cao knew it very well.
She stared at Tang Defan sharply, realizing that this man was probably well prepared, so she lowered her head and whispered a few words to Xiao Shuangbao's ear.
Little Shuangbao nodded.
Afterwards, Chen Cao took advantage of the crowd and slipped away.
"I wonder if Her Royal Highness the Princess has come today to ask me to do something important?"
At this time, Tang Defan looked at Xiao Shuangbao with a respectful and flattering smile.
"I'm thirsty and just wanted to come in and ask for a glass of water when I passed by. Lord Tang, there's no need to mobilize so many troops, making it seem like I'm here to raid Jingzhao Prefecture."
Xiao Shuangbao held her chin high, assumed the noble demeanor of a royal princess, and said every word that Chen Cao had said to her before.
"Princess, you are absolutely right. I was wrong. Since you are thirsty, please come in."
Tang Defan waved everyone away and invited Xiao Shuangbao into the yamen.
As soon as he entered, Xiao Shuangbao immediately felt that the sky in the yamen had darkened. It was no longer the clear and cloudless weather outside, but had become depressing and lifeless. There was even a strong and lingering resentment lingering in the air.
Little Shuangbao frowned.
Considering all the grievances in Jingzhao Prefecture, how many people has Tang Defan harmed during his time here?
