"This is a gift from the Queen Mother; you may leave now."
The musician, holding the metal instrument, stared incredulously at the woman on the recliner. Only after confirming that she truly wouldn't pursue the matter did he leave with his instrument.
How many people are in his family?
After the musician left, the woman asked the maid.
The maidservant replied respectfully, "He has only an old mother and a young daughter."
"Okay, you go and handle it."
The woman finished speaking softly and then closed her eyes.
The maid replied "Yes" and went out.
She knew what the First Lady meant; she wanted the three of them to disappear from the world forever.
Yu Yiman continued tapping her fingers on the table, but her displeasure lingered, and she couldn't recapture her earlier good mood.
Just as she was thinking of having someone bring in a few slaves to vent her anger.
A maidservant rushed in.
"Your Majesty, here is a secret letter from you." The maid knelt on the ground and presented a brocade pouch with both hands.
Yu Yiman opened her eyes and saw the brocade pouch, and immediately sat up from the recliner.
She took the brocade pouch, quickly opened it, and eagerly began to read the paper inside.
A fleeting smile crossed Yu Yiman's face when she saw the familiar handwriting.
This handwriting could only have come from Mu Tingzheng.
Yu Yiman read the letter three times before putting it away.
She now knew the purpose of Mu Tingzheng's letter to her: he wanted her to find the Mind-Brain Pill to save the insane Madam Bai.
Yu Yiman stood up and spread her arms.
The kneeling maid immediately understood and put the peacock feather cloak on her.
"Let's go find the king."
Yu Yiman said coldly.
As she pushed open the door to the king's bedroom, a strong smell of wine wafted out.
Inside the room, gentle and tender melodies were being played, and from time to time, a woman's charming voice could be heard.
Yu Yiman showed no emotion whatsoever in response to these statements.
She walked into the inner room as if it were a routine, and said to the women on the bed, "If you don't want to appear in Bone Red Alley, get out."
Several women with beaded necklaces around their waists were immediately terrified. Their previous alluring demeanor vanished, and they hurriedly grabbed their clothes and scrambled out.
Bone Red Alley was a notorious dark alley where women with missing limbs performed for people to watch.
Hu Yansai, the king of the Heavenly Wolf Kingdom, stood neatly dressed on a wolf-shaped chair beside the bed. Behind the chair back was a complete wolf king's head.
Hu Yansai's gaze fell on Yu Yiman, his deep brows and eyes revealing undisguised anger.
"Who gave you permission to disturb me?" Huyanse's deep voice rang out.
Faced with his blame, Yu Yiman calmly replied:
"Anyway, you won't touch those women, so does it make a difference whether I bother you or not?"
Huyan Sai downed a glass of wine, his wild face filled with restlessness.
"If you have something to say, say it; if you don't, get lost."
Yu Yiman: "Of course something's wrong, otherwise do you think I'd want to see you?"
Huyan Sai frowned and said in a low voice, "Yu! Yi! Man! Are you challenging me?"
Yu Yiman fiddled with her fingers and said casually, "Tell the truth!"
"I will be returning to Longyuan Kingdom for a period of time in the next three days."
Huyan Sai: "I'm not going."
"I didn't ask you to go, I was talking about myself!"
After explaining the purpose of her trip, Yu Yiman didn't want to stay in front of men for even a moment longer.
She turned around, and as she reached the door, she said to the sorrowful-looking man behind her in a highly sarcastic tone:
"No matter how many women you search, you'll never find a trace of her!!"
After saying that, Yu Yiman quickly walked out.
A sound of breaking dishes came from behind me.
Yu Yiman walked quite a distance before letting out a heavy sigh of relief.
Luckily she escaped quickly, otherwise Huyan Sai might have grabbed her by the neck.
After all, that woman was a forbidden zone in his heart. She had only brought it up boldly to spite him.
Who told him to be so arrogant? She just couldn't stand his attitude.
The thought that Huyan Sai would be in a bad mood for the next few days made Yu Yiman feel refreshed.
She turned to her maid and said, "Fuyun, go and write a letter to the Empress of Longyuan Kingdom, telling her that I will depart in three days."
After saying that, Yu Yiman looked up at the full moon in the sky.
She heard that Princess Yuening's daughter had been found, but she didn't know what kind of child she was.
Yu Yiman was filled with curiosity.
