Qingxing knew the princess's little habit. If she was in a hurry, the carriage must be filled with candied fruits and snacks such as cakes. Otherwise, the princess would have a lot of free time along the way.

"Um."

Rong Zhen stood behind her with a stern look on his face. Gu Yunru didn't like seeing his eyebrows frowned and his expression wasn't so lively. But they were going to see their goddaughter, so how could they act so unfriendly? So she raised two fingers and gently poked his dimples.

"You will scare the children like this. It's better to smile more." Gu Yunru has a pretty face, like a peach in spring. The peach blossoms in the yard complement each other. Now even the spring peach blossoms are blooming all over the mountains and fields.

"Okay." Rong Zhen was really not used to smiling. He felt his face would become stiff when he smiled. He usually had a cold look on his face, but he was not like that to everyone.

Looking at her gorgeous and pure smile, her pair of bright eyes are like a bright moon in the night sky.

Qingxing watched as the relationship between the prince and the princess became better and better. The two were inseparable wherever they went, with their arms around each other. Such an intimate gesture was truly the envy of others.

Qingshuang was surprised by a cough. She didn't expect to feel hot all over so early in the morning. She looked out the window silently. The sun was not very strong today.

At this moment, the sound of the door being pushed open was heard, and an unfamiliar maid walked in carrying a bowl of medicine.

"Aunt Qingshuang, this is the medicine the princess prepared for you, drink it quickly."

The unfamiliar maid was wearing a light yellow half-sleeve. Qingshuang gritted her teeth and supported herself with both hands to sit up. She looked at her with one eyebrow raised and the other lowered, and asked in confusion, "I don't think I've seen you before since I came here?"

"I have also just arrived not long ago. Aunt, I have met you before." After saying this, the maid held the medicine bowl flat in her palm and looked at her quietly, wanting her to drink the medicine as soon as possible so that she could go back and report.

Qingshuang thought that the prince and princess would come to the palace to congratulate the princess today. The princess also signaled that someone should prepare the medicine and serve her, so she didn't think much about it and drank the medicine in one go. After Qingshuang drank the medicine, she felt tired and lay down on the bed and fell into a deep sleep.

The maid finished her task and came behind Qingyu, lowering her voice and saying, "Madam, I have fed her the medicine as you ordered. In less than two hours, this slave girl will definitely be dead."

The maid's voice sounded a little proud. It seemed that this was not the first time she had done such a thing. Qingyu slowly turned around, winked at a maid beside her, and handed a silver bag to her.

"This is a reward for you."

"Thank you ma'am!"

"Get the money and leave quickly. Don't let anyone find you."

"yes."

The maid was overjoyed. She weighed the silver and money in the bag. The heavy weight was enough for her to spend the rest of her life in peace.

She went out from the back door of the palace and came all the way to the outskirts of the capital, but found that a man in black was following her. The man in black was a maidservant of Qingyu who knew kung fu. The maidservant felt something was wrong, so she opened the silver bag and saw that it was full of broken stones.

"Damn it..." The maid was about to go back to the palace to settle accounts with Qingyu, but was stopped by the man, who approached her step by step with a dagger in her hand.

Qingyu was holding a small silk fan with a white orchid in her hand. She perked up when she saw a dark shadow passing by the door.

"Come in."

The man in black climbed in through the window, took off his black mask, and spoke to her in a low voice, "Madam, the maid is dead. I dumped her body in the wilderness. I don't think anyone will tell this matter to anyone else."

"You did a great job. Any instructions from the general?"

"Not yet. I just hope that Madam can live peacefully in the mansion. If you find anything, please report it to the general in time."

"kindness."

Qingyu nodded lazily with a casual look on his face, waving the spiral fan in his hand intermittently.

On the other side, Gu Yunru's right eyelid kept twitching. He stuffed the last piece of cake into the carriage and jumped off. Finally, he arrived at the Xuanwu Gate. The little stool ran over cleverly and stayed here for more than half an hour.

"Greetings, Lord and Princess!"

"kindness."

Gu Yunru and Rong Zhen walked side by side. Gu Yunru stopped for a long time on the small stool and watched Qingxing get off the carriage. He smiled and walked up to her and looked at her. "I haven't seen you for a long time. You look thinner. What do you think is this?"

After that, he handed a small package of mysterious things to her. Driven by curiosity, Qingxing opened it and saw that it was the Dailuo used by the empress in the palace. She looked at the small stool in surprise, "Where did you steal these from? You know that only the empress in the palace can use this thing!"

"Hush, this is a reward from the Empress of Jingren Palace."

Seeing that no one was around, Xiaodeng became bolder and quietly touched Qingxing's palm, but she glared back with resentment. Xiaodeng didn't dare to speak, and silently swallowed his saliva and continued: "This is a reward from the Queen because she saw that I was smart."

"You think I will believe you? What do you want this woman's thing for? Do you have any fetish?"

Qing Xing looked at the small stool suspiciously. He had a handsome face, but he always gave people a gloomy feeling. It seemed that the eunuchs in the palace could not tell the difference between genders.

"Miss Qingxing, please don't tease me. I asked for this for you. Miss Qingxing has beautiful eyebrows. If you use this to draw them, they will be more vivid."

"real?"

Qingxing wanted to take a mirror to look at her eyebrows to see if they were as beautiful as Xiaodengzi said. She was immediately overjoyed.

"Of course, when have I ever lied to you?"

As she spoke, the hand still wanted to get closer to her, and Qing Xing took a step back. Seeing that the prince and princess had walked away, she hurriedly said, "I have to follow and serve you first. Thank you in advance!"

"Oh..." Xiaodengzi stood there dejectedly and shook his head helplessly. He always kept the best things just to wait for the day when the princess brought Qingxing into the palace.

Qingxing trotted all the way, and although she didn't catch up with the princess, she managed to leave the stool behind.

She stood beside a wooden pillar, patted her chest, looked at the thing in her hand, and raised the corner of her mouth indifferently.

"A toad wants to eat swan flesh!" She muttered, and turned around to meet General Huang Zijun.

"How come the General meets you here?" Qing Xing was so happy that she quickly hid the things in her hand behind her back.
