[Oh, it looks like the show has already begun. Are they going to dismiss everyone? ]

[What a pity, I can’t watch the show. ]

When Qiao Diyi didn't see his parents, he quickly walked into the hall.

Qiao Jiaojiao looked up and saw her parents standing up and about to leave.

She quickly turned her gaze to the queen, only to see that the usually gentle queen looked pale, holding the fourth prince tightly in her arms, with a look of fear and anger.

The prince stood aside, his face extremely grim, his eyes slightly lowered, and it was unknown what he was thinking about.

Right at the Queen's feet, Concubine Yu was slumped there. Her back was facing the palace door, so Qiao Jiaojiao could not see her expression.

But looking at her slightly trembling shoulders, you could tell that she was obviously frightened.

Qiao Zhongguo soon saw Qiao Diyi holding Qiao Jiaojiao. He reached out and took Qiao Jiaojiao over. The family turned around and left the hall.

When the Fourth Prince saw this, he opened his mouth slightly but said nothing.

The Queen and the Crown Prince also noticed Qiao Diyi's arrival.

Just now, they had heard from Xiao Si in private that it was Qiao Diyi who jumped into Yuhua Lake to save his life.

The mother and son kept this great kindness in their hearts, but it was not convenient for them to express it in public.

There were tears in the Queen's eyes. She didn't dare to imagine what the situation would be like now if Qiao's Erlang hadn't rescued Xiao Si in time.

The prince followed the Qiao family's entourage closely, and when he saw Qiao Diyi finally looking over, he nodded slightly at him.

Qiao Diyi knew that the Crown Prince must have consulted with the Fourth Prince, so he smiled naively, revealing a mouthful of white teeth.

The prince's face finally showed a hint of warmth. At this moment, a voice of promise came from outside the palace:

"His Majesty has arrived!"

The prince's expression suddenly changed, and everyone knelt down to salute.

Emperor Yong's face looked very ugly. He strode through the crowd and into the hall. The corners of his bright yellow robe were raised, showing his anger.

Qiao Jiaojiao secretly glanced at Emperor Yong.

[Dog Emperor, if you are still a human being, please don’t disappoint your wife and two children! ]

Bang--

The door of Funing Palace was closed.

"Quickly stand up, all outsiders, please leave!"

Eunuch Huang was guarding the palace gate, his face solemn and he urged loudly.

Upon hearing this, everyone hurriedly got up and left.

At this time, Qiao Jiaojiao suddenly saw Minister Meng and Madam Meng standing there at a loss, their faces pale.

Qiao Jiaojiao raised her eyebrows slightly.

[Meng Guxue hasn't come back yet? The Second Prince shouldn't kill her. Could it be that they fell in love with each other while chatting? ]

[That’s impossible? Even if Meng Guxue is a love-brained person, then the second prince is not. Could it be that the male and female protagonists are attracted to each other and they are back to the Mary Sue style? ]

This sentence contained too many modern words, and the Qiao family members found it difficult to understand.

Qiao Tianjing could somewhat understand what Qiao Jiaojiao meant, but he did not agree with this guess.

At this time, Qiao Jiaojiao's inner voice continued to ring:

[I feel like the Second Prince is an absolute egoist. He didn't fall in love with Meng Guxue at first sight, so maybe he won't really fall in love with Meng Guxue.]

[It seems that perhaps the Second Prince thinks that Meng Guxue has something that can be used...]

After hearing this, Qiao Tianjing nodded silently.

The second prince's intelligence is far superior to that of ordinary people, and he will never be obsessed with so-called love.

Moreover, in his opinion, Meng Guxue was not good enough to make the Second Prince fall in love with her.

Qiao Jiaojiao tilted her head and her expression suddenly changed slightly.

[Wait! Isn't modern knowledge what Meng Guxue can show off? ]

[Recipe! Oops! How could I have overlooked such an important thing! ]

[Soap, lipstick, and perfume are now selling like hot cakes in Qingzhou. The Second Prince must have heard about this a long time ago. Would Meng Guxue, that fool, just to get on the Second Prince's high branch, have given away the formula without hesitation?]

[Isn't this going to be a business war? ]

When Qiao Tianjing heard this, he frowned immediately.

This would really give him a headache.

Minister Meng and Madam Meng were going crazy with anxiety!

As soon as the Fourth Prince came back, the palace servants started shouting everywhere that the banquet had ended early.

Now everyone is leaving, but his daughter hasn't come back yet. This...isn't this going to harm their entire family!

Madam Meng was filled with regret. She had clearly reminded Meng Guxue time and again before today that she must behave properly in the palace, but something still went wrong!

When Eunuch Huang saw that the Meng couple did not move, he walked over with a sullen face.

"Minister Meng, what is this?"

Lord Meng was terrified, "Eunuch Huang, my daughter hasn't come back yet, this... this..."

Eunuch Huang frowned, "Haven't we already sent palace servants to inform everyone? Lord Meng, don't blame me for not reminding you. The emperor and the queen are furious right now. If you offend them, everyone in the Meng Mansion will—"

Eunuch Huang deliberately stopped talking halfway and dragged out his voice, which frightened Minister Meng and Madam Meng so much that they almost fell to the ground.

"Go look for it at Yuhua Lake."

Eunuch Huang looked displeased and waved at the two young eunuchs beside him.

The palace servants informed everyone, and since he didn't come back in time, he must not have received the news, so he could only have gone to Yuhua Lake.

This young lady of the Meng family relies on her talent, but she is also dishonest. How can everyone go to Yuhua Lake?

Thinking of this, Eunuch Huang began to feel a little displeased with Meng Guxue.

He raised his eyes lazily, and unexpectedly saw the Qiao family members who were about to leave, so he quickly put on a smiling face.

"Master Qiao, take care."

Qiao Zhongguo smiled and nodded to Eunuch Huang, then turned and left.

Qiao Jiaojiao found it funny.

[Eunuch Huang changes his expression so quickly, no wonder he can serve Emperor Yong, he is really capable! ]

As soon as the Qiao family left, the two young eunuchs came back, followed by Meng Guxue who looked hurried.

There was no joy on her face, and she seemed to be worried.

When Minister Meng and Madam Meng saw her, they were so angry that their teeth were itching!

This damn girl, does she know that she almost harmed the entire Meng family!

"Eunuch Huang, I have found my daughter. We will leave now."

Eunuch Huang glanced at him and responded softly.

"Master Meng, please go home quickly."

As the most trusted personal eunuch of Emperor Yong, he had this confidence.

Seeing that all the court officials and their families had left, Eunuch Huang signaled everyone to stay outside the palace, and then he carefully pushed the door.

The moment the palace door was pushed open, there was a sound of teacups breaking on the ground, followed by Emperor Yong's angry shout:

"Yu Zhaoyi, how dare you murder the prince!"

Eunuch Huang's shoulders trembled slightly, but he still walked in bravely.

In the palace, Yu Zhaoyi lowered her head deeply, and she never said a word in rebuttal.

At this time, the fourth prince came out from beside the queen. He knelt in front of Emperor Yong, straightened his back, and said loudly:

"Father, I have something to report to you."
