"Father, when I learned that the envoy had forced his way out of the city, I was too late to pursue him. Father, please give me one more chance to bring him back!"
The emperor's face, originally filled with sorrow, was transformed into a trace of joy. He quickly stepped forward and helped Jing Yuchen up. "Are you sure you can resolve this matter peacefully?"
"Father, they want the gold mine back and they also want compensation. Why not give us Elder Xu's whereabouts in exchange?"
The emperor narrowed his eyes and looked at Jing Yuchen: "Do you have any news about Mr. Xu?"
“You can create something out of nothing!”
The emperor gradually began to smile, his eyes full of admiration: "Very good, do it quickly!"
"Father, I hope Yueshan can return home." Jing Yuchen's words were calm, but he was actually stating conditions. The emperor's face darkened, but he finally responded, "Okay, I'll send him out of the palace right away. You should also hurry and chase the envoy!"
"Yes, I will take my leave!"
After Jing Yuchen left, Ni Yueshan was also called to stand up.
Ni Yueshan, who was still suffering from a cold, was wearing a veil and very thick clothes. She was helped by palace servants and got on the carriage to leave the palace.
Outside the palace, as the carriage swayed, Ni Yueshan began to cough violently, as if waking up. "Where are we going?"
"Princess Consort, the Crown Prince misses you, and the Emperor is sympathetic, so he is sending you out of the palace and back to live in the mansion."
Ni Yueshan showed an expression of realization, then lifted the curtain and looked out. Outside the carriage, several passers-by were staring at the carriage. The carriage was driving steadily, but was suddenly stopped in an emergency. Before anyone could question it, the two sides had already started fighting.
Then the horse got startled and started running wildly, shaking the two palace maids inside the carriage to the ground. Outside the carriage, two nimble women pulled the palace maids off the carriage...
Ni Yueshan saw clearly that they were her two new maids!
However, the carriage was still running wildly, and Ni Yueshan felt a little pain in his abdomen. At this time, a figure flew down from the roof and stood on the horse. Soon, the horse gradually calmed down.
Jing Yuchen's worried voice came from outside: "How are you?"
"I'm fine, where's my dad?"
"The Prime Minister's servants have been dismissed this morning. The Prime Minister is in the envoy's team and has left the city. Now only you and I are left!"
Ni Yueshan's eyes flickered, but she was very pleased. "I want to ask, how did you manage to dig a tunnel in the Cold Palace and Kunning Palace in just a few days?"
"I only had people digging half of the tunnel day and night. The rest was all the work of the old people in the cold palace."
After the jolting of the carriage subsided, Ni Yueshan's abdominal pain gradually subsided. She breathed a sigh of relief and sat in the carriage, curiously asking, "How did you bribe the palace maids to dare to turn against the emperor in front of him?"
"These people are old people from the former queen's palace. Naturally, their families are all controlled by the former queen. Aunt Bai is the best at making people submit. This is all thanks to Aunt Bai!"
"You and I have both left the Imperial City, so what about the former Queen and Nanny Bai?"
"How can we flee the capital when the former queen's family is still around? Even if we have to live a miserable life, we must stay in the palace." Jing Yuchen quickened his pace: "Yueshan, sit tight! The envoy is still waiting for us. I'm speeding up!"
After leaving the city gate, they met the Tufan envoy's team. He and Ni Gaofei stood together at this time, watching Jing Yuchen riding towards them from afar.
Ni Gaofei took the initiative to step forward and asked, "Have you made arrangements in the city? Will you regret leaving like this?"
Jing Yuchen got off the carriage and said, "I just want my wife and children to live a peaceful life."
Ni Yueshan opened the carriage curtain and said, "Dad, let's go first!"
The envoy's expression was complicated, and he couldn't help but sigh, "Prince, have you thought it through? You went to Tufan to expose your father's evil deeds. This is disloyalty and unfilial. Aren't you afraid of being called a traitor by the people?"
Jing Yuchen just chuckled and turned to look at Ni Yueshan with a calm expression, not caring much: "Sir, if you say it again, I will regret it!"
The envoy didn't dare to say anything more. He smiled awkwardly and said, "Let's go, let's go!"
Jing Yuchen threw the reins to someone else and moved closer to Ni Yueshan's carriage.
Ni Yueshan moved aside a little, and Jing Yuchen moved a little closer. However, when he held her hand, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes: "Were you pretending to be sick before, or were you really sick? Why are your hands so cold?"
