"How could it disappear out of thin air? Did you really look for it seriously?"
When Zhao Jieyu heard the eunuch's report, she didn't believe it at all.
"Your Majesty, I dare not lie to you! She really disappeared right there! That place is a blind spot. I went over to check, and there was no way she could escape!"
The eunuch knelt on the ground and said fearfully.
"Waste! What's the point of me keeping you around?" Concubine Zhao was so angry that she wanted to kill someone.
"My Queen, please spare me! My Queen, please spare me!"
A group of palace maids and eunuchs immediately knelt down and begged for mercy.
"Well, my lady, it's not their fault. This little Princess Lingfu can see ghosts and run so fast. She's as heavy as a rock and has magic to escape from where she is. Nothing is impossible."
On the side, Madam Zhou advised, "Your Majesty, let's forget about this time. We still have plenty of chances to kill her and silence her!"
Concubine Zhao also knew that Nanny Zhou was right.
She glanced at the dark fake caves unwillingly and said gloomily, "How abominable! If this weren't the imperial palace, I'd set fire to it and burn her to death!"
"My lady, don't dare say such things carelessly!"
Nanny Zhou quickly interrupted her thoughts, supported Concubine Zhao's hand, and said, "Your Majesty, it's getting late. Let's go back first. I'll send someone to check on the Yangxin Palace later.
"As long as this little princess returns to the Yangxin Palace, I will find a way to kill her!"
After hearing this, Concubine Zhao looked at Nanny Zhou, whom she trusted, nodded, and walked away arrogantly.
In the fake cave.
When the footsteps outside disappeared, the hand covering Xiao Shuangbao's mouth from behind loosened.
Then, the hand behind her pushed forward.
A stone slab was pushed aside, revealing a hole.
Just now, Xiao Shuangbao was pulled in here and escaped this danger.
At this time, she was held by the hand again and crawled out of the cave.
When she got outside, she saw clearly that the person who saved her was actually a very handsome and heroic young man!
The little brother is not very old, and looks like he is only seven or eight years old, but he already has sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, and his temperament is even more extraordinary, just like a little banished immortal!
"Thank you, little brother! If it weren't for you, Shuangbao would have been caught by the bad guys!" Little Shuangbao said with bright eyes.
"You're welcome. It's just a small favor."
The young boy said gently.
He looked at Xiao Shuangbao and suddenly couldn't help laughing.
This smile is like the ripples of a clear spring water, spreading slowly.
Little Shuangbao couldn't help but stare in amazement!
The little brother is so handsome!
It’s completely different from the beautiful sister’s beauty!
Moreover, this little brother gave her a very familiar and warm feeling...
It's like they have known each other for a long time!
At this moment, the young boy looked at Shuang Bao, raised his hand and gently wiped her dazed little face twice. In his clear voice, which still had a hint of childishness, there was a hint of imperceptible doting:
"You have so much dust on your face, like a little cat."
"Hehe, it's okay. I'll just go back to Yangxin Palace and wash it off later."
Little Shuangbao came back to his senses and started smiling cutely.
"The Palace of Mental Cultivation? So, you are the Princess Lingfu who was just canonized by the Emperor some time ago?" A hint of just the right amount of surprise appeared on the handsome face of the young boy, who still had the childishness.
"Yes, little brother, you can just call me Shuangbao. By the way, little brother, what's your name? Are you daddy's son too?" Little Shuangbao asked very innocently.
"I am not the emperor's son."
The young boy shook his head and said, "I'm just a luthier. You can call me Luthier Brother."
"Hello, brother Qinshi!"
Little Shuangbao exclaimed sweetly, with a hint of curiosity on her face, "That brother, the pianist, must be very good at playing the piano!"
"It's okay." The young boy smiled modestly, but with a kind of confidence that he had everything planned out.
At this time, footsteps were heard not far away.
A palace maid passed by.
Little Shuangbao quickly grabbed the boy's hand and hid in the rockery again.
"I heard that you were under house arrest by the emperor, and now you ran out secretly because you were afraid of being discovered, right?" the young boy whispered.
"Shh, brother Qinshi, please don't talk, or you'll be discovered!"
Little Shuangbao raised his little finger and made a cute gesture for silence, while speaking mysteriously in his baby voice.
The young boy's face, hidden in the darkness, smiled softly.
He fell silent cooperatively.
Only after the sound of footsteps faded away did Xiao Shuangbao breathe a sigh of relief, and then he peeked out again, pulling the young boy out.
"Why don't you hide in the yard where I live for a while? It's right next to me, very close." The young boy suddenly said as he looked at Xiao Shuangbao holding his little fleshy hand.
"No, Brother Qinshi, Shuangbao still has to wait here for Sister Chencao." Little Shuangbao shook his head.
"I'll ask the servant to wait here later. As soon as she comes, the servant will take her to find you." said the young boy.
"That's fine."
Little Shuangbao thought about it and followed the young boy.
The young boy held her hand and walked all the way to where he lived.
It was a very elegant, quiet, yet gorgeous courtyard, located in a remote corner of the palace, like an ancient well, and its existence was not easily discovered.
The gate opened.
A middle-aged man with a full beard immediately appeared.
As soon as he saw the young boy, he said in a somewhat reproachful and helpless tone: "Young Master, you didn't eat well this morning. Where have you been today?"
