Chapter 50 It’s broken, where is the male protagonist?



Chu Yaoyao doesn't have time to care what he thinks.

Because she suddenly realized a serious problem.

【It’s bad! 】

[This time the banquet ended early, and the heroine was escorted back. She definitely didn't meet the hero. So where was the hero? ]

When Chu Yaoyao thought of this unexpected change, she became extremely anxious.

She is a person with the aura of a protagonist. She doesn't think that the hero will be seriously injured and die without the heroine's rescue.

Emperor Qixuan lowered his eyes and looked at the tea leaves floating in the cup.

That’s right, Su Maowen also said that there was nothing unusual along the way.

What's more, the secret guards have been keeping an eye on Shi Jingjing at Shi's house.

[System, where is the male protagonist? ]

System: Host, do you want to know? It only takes 5 points to find someone.

Chu Yaoyao gritted her teeth, [No need! At worst, I can just ask my scumbag dad to turn the capital upside down, and he will be found eventually.]

System: Even if you dig three feet deep into the ground, you still can’t find him.

Can't find it? Chu Yaoyao raised an eyebrow, [Oh~~]

[It turns out that he is not in the capital. ]

System: How did you...

The system is depressed and offline.

[The first three chapters of Gold have been completed, but the hero and heroine have not yet met. 】

But Chu Yaoyao soon came to terms with it.

[Anyway, the plot is a far cry from the original, so who cares.]

Seeing her frown relax, Emperor Qixuan felt relieved.

It seems that this matter is not difficult, but we still send people to investigate secretly.

"Your Majesty, the Third Prince is here."

"Let him in."

Chu Yao walked in holding a small box, "Greetings to the Emperor, and to the Concubine Shu."

Then he smiled, opened the box, took out the contents, and waved them in front of Yaoyao.

"Look, sister, what is this?"

Chu Yaoyao opened her mouth slightly, "Shadow puppet!"

"I'm a little butterfly!" Chu Yao picked up the shadow puppet and fiddled with it in a funny way.

Chu Yaoyao was so happy watching this.

After a while, cheerful laughter rang out in the room.

Half an hour later, Emperor Qixuan took Chu Yao away from Qionghua Palace.

On the way, in front of a group of palace servants, Emperor Qixuan patted Chu Yao on the shoulder.

"Well done. Your sister is in a bad mood. As a brother, you should comfort her more."

Chu Yao asked cautiously: "Father, can I go see Mother?"

Hearing this, Emperor Qixuan's mouth corners gradually straightened, and the eunuchs and palace maids around him trembled with fear.

"Go if you want, but only this once."

"I understand, son!" Chu Yao nodded vigorously with excitement.

After running a few steps, he turned back and said, "But the guards at the gate of Changhua Palace..."

Emperor Qixuan handed him the jade pendant on his body and said, "Don't stay too long."

Chu Yao grabbed the jade pendant and took two steps at a time, and soon ran away.

Looking at his back, Emperor Qixuan silently clenched his fists, a trace of worry flashed across his eyes, but it was fleeting.

Su Maowen stepped forward and reported in a low voice, "Your Majesty, Censor Zhou has been waiting at the door of the imperial study for a long time."

Upon hearing this, Emperor Qixuan said in a deep voice: "Set up the imperial study."

Imperial Study

As soon as Emperor Qixuan sat down, Censor Zhou fell to his knees on the ground with a thud.

The old voice was extremely sad, "Your Majesty! I am ashamed!"

"Zheng Fang's matter has not been investigated yet. Cheng Hui's matter was only due to your Majesty's reminder. All of these were caused by my negligence. I feel guilty towards the late emperor and towards your Majesty. Please punish me!"

Emperor Qixuan walked over and helped him up. "You don't have to blame yourself, Censor Zhou. The people behind Zheng Fang are so powerful that they can cover the sky with one hand."

As he said this, he sighed rather melancholy.

Seeing this, Censor Zhou felt even more guilty. It was the first time that His Majesty showed a lost expression.

It's all because of those idle people in the Censorate, it's all because of his incompetence! "Since there is no clue, let's put it aside for now."

"But Your Majesty, are you going to allow these villains to continue to cause chaos in the court?"

Emperor Qixuan raised his hand to interrupt him, looked at him deeply, and said meaningfully: "There is one person who may be a breakthrough."

Hearing this, Censor Zhou looked anxious, "Who?"

"I will check it out right away."

"Wait a moment!"

Emperor Qixuan picked up a booklet from the desk.

"This is a health-preserving technique that I accidentally acquired. Censor Zhou can try to practice it."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for the reward!" Censor Zhou took the book with both hands with a grateful look on his face, and touched the cover with care.

Since His Majesty has said that it has the effect of maintaining health, then he must practice it, strive to live a few more years, and be more loyal to Daqi! After Zhou Yushi left, Su Maowen reported at the door, "Your Majesty, the old tutor wants to see you."

"Pass it!"

Afterwards, Emperor Qixuan returned to his chair and sat back, narrowing his eyes and stroking his ring.

It’s time to talk to the Grand Tutor about Zhou Huaichen’s matter!

Changhua Palace

Chu Yao took the jade pendant, and no one dared to stop him. He ran into Changhua Palace with great fanfare, shouting as he ran: "Mother!"

Hearing his voice, Concubine Xian came out of the room and asked in surprise, "How could you come in so blatantly, kid?"

Chu Yao shook the jade pendant in his hand and laughed, "Don't worry, mother, this time it's father who has approved it."

Hearing this, Concubine Xian was delighted and smiled as she put her arm around his shoulders. "Tell mother what's going on."

"Because of my sister Yaoyao, my father saw that my sister and I were having fun, so he allowed me to come and see you."

Upon hearing this, Concubine Xian's smiling mouth froze and she looked dimly in the direction of Qionghua Palace.

"Really? It seems that the little princess is really special in the emperor's heart."

Hearing this, Chu Yao became nervous. Oh no, this would backfire! "Isn't your mother happy that your son is coming to Changhua Palace?"

"How could that be? Mother is very happy." As she said that, Concubine Xian patted his hands.

Chu Yao suddenly whispered, "This time my son has good news."

"oh?"

He put his hand to his mouth and whispered, "Mother may be able to go out soon."

Hearing this, Concubine Xian subconsciously tightened her handkerchief, "What do you mean?"

Chu Yao first looked around, then leaned over to her ear and whispered something.

"really?!"

After a moment of excitement, the virtuous concubine looked thoughtful.

"However, Lingcheng is only 70 or 80 miles away from the capital. How could it take three days?"

Chu Yao poured a cup of tea and took a sip. "It is said that they are here to escort some prisoners."

Upon hearing this, Concubine Xian knocked over the teacup in panic.

"Mother! Are you okay?"

Chu Yao looked at her hand worriedly, "Son, go find the doctor!"

"Yao'er!"

Concubine Xian tried to stay calm, "The tea is not hot, mother is just... a little tired."

"real?"

Xian Fei nodded and forced a smile, "Of course, you go back first, mother wants to rest for a while."

"Well, my son, I'll take my leave."

When he reached the gate of Changhua Palace, Chu Yao suddenly remembered that he had forgotten to take the jade pendant, so he turned back immediately.

Looking at the tightly closed door, he was just feeling strange when he heard vaguely: "What happened to that guy surnamed Sun?"

Who is my mother talking to again?

Chu Yao walked lightly to the door, held his breath, and listened attentively.

"Everything is normal. It seems that the Third Prince did not betray the Queen."

Hearing this, Chu Yao felt somewhat relieved. What a close call! It turned out that what his father said was right. That person was a bait deliberately released by his mother.

"Yao'er just said that the man has already arrived in Lingcheng."

"I will be there right away."

"Xiao Shi!" Concubine Xian's tone was cold and filled with murderous intent.

"Remember, that person must not return to Beijing alive!"

Xiao Shi!

Hearing this name, Chu Yao subconsciously clenched his fists and silently recited the name with gritted teeth.

His breathing became rapid because of anger.

Xiao Shi, who was about to leave, suddenly stopped and cast a cold gaze towards the door.

"who!"
