Guan Zhiyue led Bilian to the side room next door, where they quickly changed their clothes.
Bilian stared wide-eyed at Guan Zhiyue, who had already changed her skirt. Wasn't she supposed to change into a different outfit? Why did she only change the bottom half of her dress?
"Your Majesty, your speed is simply too incredible!"
Guan Zhiyue gave a nonchalant smirk and said, "It's nothing, it's not technically difficult. I only changed my lower body."
Bilian quickly came over to help Guan Zhiyue walk towards the main hall. However, Guan Zhiyue felt very tightness in her chest and asked Bilian to go to the Emperor's side first. She would stand and walk around by the door, otherwise she didn't know how long it would take to finish.
It's only afternoon, not even evening yet, and their banquet is going to continue until the palace gates are locked!
So it's best to get some fresh air here, otherwise I'll feel really stuffy!
Bilian was still worried about her mistress being out alone, but her mistress was right. If the two of them didn't return soon, wouldn't the Emperor be anxious and think something had happened to them?
Now she had no choice but to go back first, report to the Emperor, and then immediately go out to find her Empress.
Bi Lian slowly turned around and returned to the main hall, glancing back every few steps. Li Qiji kept his eyes fixed on the small door behind her.
He was worried that the palace would be a mixed bag tonight, that some people might harm his Yue'er, and that some people, knowing she was the one who developed high-yield grains, might do something bad.
Finally, as he looked around, Bilian's little head popped out. But then he saw that only Bilian had come in; where was his Empress?
Li Qiji suddenly stood up, leaving all the ministers present dumbfounded. What was going on?
Why did the Emperor suddenly stand up? What's going on?
Could something have happened?
Everyone was looking around, oh dear! It seems the Queen is nowhere to be seen!
Bilian quickly walked to Li Qiji's side and said, "Your Majesty, please don't worry. The Empress said she feels rather stifled and wants to get some fresh air. Please be patient, and I will go find her right away."
After hearing Bi Lian's explanation, Li Qiji's tense mood finally eased a bit. He had thought that his empress had been kidnapped or something else, but it turned out that she was just getting some fresh air!
Guan Zhiyue had no idea that her desire to get some fresh air had terrified Li Qiji so much. If things were any more complicated, wouldn't he have rushed out to find her without a second thought?
Guan Zhiyue felt she had caught her breath and was about to turn around and go back into the main hall. She was originally in a rather cramped space. Just as she was about to walk out, she suddenly heard a few chattering voices coming from the side. Startled, she quickly slipped into her spatial dimension.
"Oh, Master, what brings you here!" Little Tuantuan was floating in mid-air, crossing her legs and eating snacks from Guan Zhiyue's space!
Guan Zhiyue quickly raised her hand to be quiet, fearing that she might accidentally disturb the people outside, as her master hadn't given her any warning.
Little Tuantuan flew to Guan Zhiyue's side, looking her up and down with a puzzled expression. Guan Zhiyue was tilting her neck and stretching her ears, trying to hear the sounds from outside.
"Master, what new skill have you acquired? Why is your posture so awkward?"
Guan Zhiyue: "....." I'll beat you to death.
"Master, what are you doing?" Xiao Tuantuan was really curious. She could hear people talking outside the space, but Guan Zhiyue couldn't understand them. Xiao Tuantuan had a guess in her mind, but she couldn't be sure.
Guan Zhiyue raised her hand to her forehead and said, "I want to hear what the people outside are saying. I have a feeling they have ill intentions."
Little Tuantuan: "..." I knew it, my owner is really a weirdo.
"It's simple, just turn on the connection function, why go through all this trouble?" Xiao Tuantuan said.
Guan Zhiyue: "..." Why didn't you say so earlier?
"Quickly, turn it on for me, or they'll leave."
So Xiao Tuantuan didn't hesitate. With a quick swipe of her little hand, a huge screen appeared in mid-air. It showed the spot where Guan Zhiyue had been standing, and now it was where the two men in black were standing.
Are you ready?
"Colonel, everything is ready. We're just waiting for them to get drunk tonight so we can make the arrests."
"Okay, this is a do-or-die situation. Also, you need to keep an eye on Han Jung-kyung from Goryeo. He can't ruin our plans. Our country is practically the closest to theirs. If they find out we kidnapped the Queen of Namjeong..."
A man in black standing behind bowed respectfully and said, "Serving the Emperor is absolutely foolproof!"
"Yes, I'll feel more at ease leaving this matter to you hermits. Very good, very good!"
"This matter must be kept strictly confidential. We'll have to wait until tonight for the results."
"yes."
The man in black standing in front seemed to have thought of something and then said, "Are the ships ready to leave the city gate? Have the horses outside the city been arranged?"
The man in black, who appeared to be a subordinate, said, "Colonel, rest assured, everything is under our control. Go back and tell the Crown Prince that it's time for Kyuji Masami to take the stage. Wouldn't it be a waste not to put such a stunning beauty to good use?"
"Yes, I'll go right away."
The man in black standing in front slowly raised his right hand, palm facing backward, his five fingers then rotating and tightening, gesturing for him to step back. He then looked around and, seeing no one nearby, left with peace of mind.
Guan Zhiyue watched the two people leave, then clenched her fists at her sides, her thumbs tightly wrapped around her four fingers, like a bull about to exert its strength, giving the impression that she wanted to beat them all up!
"Great! You dared to kidnap me and try to take me away? I'll show you what's what! Great!"
"Japan, Japan, I'll show you what it means to reap what you sow!"
Guan Zhiyue's temper had soared to 200%. Goodness, she looked like she was about to explode.
Little Tuantuan was very sensible and quickly took a step back. She didn't want to get close and get hurt!
"We welcome friends with good wine, but we also have hunting rifles for wolves! Damn it! I'll kill you bunch of little brats! How dare you kidnap me! I'm absolutely furious!" Guan Zhiyue was so angry she was stomping her feet on the ground, completely losing her composure. Xiao Tuantuan watched, her lips twitching...
