Chapter 518 Even if the Queen Mother wanted to do something, I'm afraid she wouldn't be able to hurt the Princess at all
Princess Wenshu said indifferently, "Since Shuntian Prefecture has already intervened in the investigation, you should completely cut off all ties with that Miss Mu, so as to avoid being tainted by bad luck."
"My daughter understands." Nalan Mei replied in a low voice, but she still felt a pang of pain in her heart at the thought of losing a generous "money bag".
The carriage drove away and disappeared around the corner.
The last glimmer of hope in Mu Ting'er's heart was shattered. She stamped her feet anxiously, "Mother! What should I do? Even the princess can't do anything..."
Xu's face turned pale. She forced herself to stand up, her voice trembling, "What else can we do? Go to the Regent's Palace! We can only... can only ask the Regent Princess for mercy! After all, it was us... who offended her."
"Will it work?" Mu Ting'er's eyes were full of fear and confusion.
Xu looked at him with a blank look in his eyes: "We have to... give it a try!"
The mother and daughter staggered to the majestic vermilion-lacquered gate of the Regent's Palace.
Before they could get close, the knife-wielding guards at the door shouted, "Stop! Who are you? This is a restricted area of the palace, anyone outside must leave immediately!"
Xu hurriedly forced a flattering smile and stepped forward. "Big brother guard, please inform us that we...we are here to see the princess!"
"Get out of here!" The guard pressed his hand on the hilt of his sword, his eyes sharp as a knife. "The princess is as precious as gold and jade, how can you just see her whenever you want? If you dare to harass me again, don't blame the sword for being blind!"
The cold murderous intent came towards them, and Xu and Mu Ting'er were so frightened that they trembled all over. They dared not say another word and retreated in a hurry.
Once they were far away from the palace gate, Mu Ting'er dared to whisper in a tearful voice, "Mother...we can't even see the princess, what should we do?"
Looking at the two majestic stone lions, Xu felt that all her strength had been drained. She sighed in despair: "What else can I do... I can only go back... and leave it to fate." There was only a silent prayer left in her heart: Shuntian Prefecture must... must not find any fatal evidence, so that the master and brother-in-law, maybe... maybe they can come back soon.
At this moment, Lan Xiyue felt as if her entire body had been torn apart and reassembled, and every inch of her skin was filled with soreness.
Mo Liyuan was like an insatiable beast, asking for more again and again.
Even if he drank the clear spiritual spring water, that little bit of nourishment could not meet his violent demands.
She had just found a trace of drowsiness in her extreme fatigue, when in a daze, the hot body covered her again, disturbing her sweet dream.
Her eyelids felt as heavy as a thousand pounds. Lan Xiyue struggled to open them a little, and what she saw was Mo Liyuan's well-defined jaw.
A surge of inexplicable anger suddenly rose up in my heart, and I really wanted to kick this unrestrained bastard off the bed!
As soon as the thought came to her mind, he noticed the slight movement of her ankle. Mo Liyuan reacted extremely quickly, and his strong and powerful leg pressed down heavily on her leg with irresistible force, instantly pinning her between the brocade quilts, making her unable to move.
"Mo Liyuan!" Lan Xiyue growled angrily, her voice hoarse and charming due to love affairs and fatigue. "Do you believe that I will really destroy you? I will make you impotent!"
Mo Liyuan paused slightly, his eyes, as deep as a cold pond, drooping as he gazed at her puffed-up face. The corners of his mouth curled up in a knowing yet playful arc, and his low voice carried a hint of afterthought and a hint of dangerous possession: "Yuer, you won't." He leaned over, his warm lips almost touching her ear, his breath scorching, "This concerns... Yueer's lifelong well-being."
"Bah! Who cares..." Lan Xiyue was filled with shame and anger. She had barely uttered half a word of rebuttal when he blocked her completely. His slightly cold lips covered hers with unquestionable force, sucking and sucking, easily snatching away her breath.
Lan Xiyue sighed in her heart and completely lost her temper.
Say? This man has a lot of twisted theories and heresies, and he can even turn black into white.
Fight? His Kung Fu is unfathomable, and I can't beat him.
Poison? As soon as her fingertips moved, she saw his eyebrows so close to her, and her heart softened... This guy clearly took advantage of her weakness and bullied her so unscrupulously!
Bastard! She cursed inwardly, but her body gradually lost its resistance under his skillful teasing, and her consciousness sank again.
Soon, the blushing and heart-pounding breathing and moans began to intertwine and sound again in the bedroom, faintly drifting out through the tightly closed carved door.
An unknown amount of time had passed as dusk gradually deepened. A figure dressed in the attire of a second-class palace maid was stealthily hiding behind the vermilion pillars of the main courtyard corridor, stretching her neck, trying her best to peek at something through the gaps in the tightly closed doors and windows.
She thought she was being secretive, but she didn't know that her every move had already fallen into the cold gaze of the dark.
Tianyi's brows were furrowed, and his figure slid silently out of the shadows like a ghost. In an instant, he was behind the palace maid. His voice was as cold as an ice-hardened blade, and it sounded cold: "I see you've been snooping around here for a while. Tell me, what are you doing sneaking around like that?"
"Ah!" The palace maid was caught off guard and was frightened to death. She screamed and suddenly realized something. She hurriedly covered her mouth tightly and turned around in panic. She met Tianyi's pair of cold eyes. Her legs went weak and she almost collapsed to the ground.
Tian Yi snorted coldly, his body emitting an oppressive murderous aura. "The main courtyard is a protected area. How dare you peek in here? And how dare you make such a loud noise! You've disturbed the peace and tranquility of the prince and princess. How many heads do you have left? Get out of here right now! No one is allowed to approach the main courtyard!"
The maid's face turned pale. She knelt on the cold stone slab with a plop, her forehead pressed to the ground, and trembled like a sieve: "I know my crime! I know my crime!"
"Get out!" Tianyi's voice left no room for maneuver.
"Yes! Yes! I'll get out of here right now! I'll get out of here right now!" The palace maid was as if she had been pardoned. She crawled to her feet, not even daring to turn her head. She staggered and fled in a hurry away from the main courtyard.
After that figure disappeared outside the moon cave gate, another black shadow landed silently beside Tianyi. It was An Yi.
He crossed his arms, looking in the direction the maid had disappeared, his tone filled with understanding, "Those are the Queen Mother's people. What's going on, Her Majesty? The Prince has only just returned to the palace, so naturally he should be showing affection to the Princess. Why are you so anxious to send someone to 'check' on him?"
Tianyi's face was solemn. If the palace maid had not been the empress dowager's person, he would not have simply expelled her.
He sighed, his voice filled with worry. "The princess is the apple of my eye. I hold her in my hands for fear of dropping her, and I hold her in my mouth for fear of her melting. If the Queen Mother insists on doing something... I'm afraid the master will be caught in the middle and be caught in a dilemma."
An Yi seemed much more relaxed, even showing a bit of blind trust in his own princess: "Our princess may look delicate and soft, but she is actually very tough at heart, and her methods are... well, extraordinary. Even if the Queen Mother wants to do something, I'm afraid she won't be able to hurt the princess in the slightest."
Tianyi's tense expression relaxed slightly, and thinking of Lan Xiyue's endless and astonishing abilities, he nodded: "That's true."
The two men looked at each other, and with a flash of their bodies, they disappeared silently into the shadows under the eaves again, as if they had never appeared.
