...
Earlier, a sketch of a half-mask was delivered to Meng Qingqian.
Others might not recognize him, but Meng Qingqian immediately recognized him as He Yunxiao!
He Yunxiao never imagined that the so-called Chang Le Gambling House he relied on was actually a tool used by his daughter Mengbao to stage her own performance and monitor Yan Kingdom assassins and various assassins.
Meng Qingqian looked at the painting in her hand and broke out in a cold sweat.
He Yunxiao had already arrived at the palace, and she was almost exposed by her lover on the spot.
This was her coming-of-age ceremony, and half of the prominent figures in the capital gathered here…
Meng Qingqian simply couldn't imagine that scene...
Princess Xiaoyue, in all her glory, was publicly called "Mengbao"?!
And then there were all those stupid things she did recklessly in front of He Yunxiao, taking advantage of her identity as "Li Qingmeng"...
Meng Qingqian gradually calmed down. She summoned the most beautiful palace maid from Changhe Palace, knocked her unconscious, changed into her own clothes, and threw her onto the bed. Then, she removed the princess's makeup and attire, changing into Li Qingmeng's usual attire. Next, she summoned Hongshao to inform He Yunxiao! She wanted He Yunxiao to see "Xiaoyue" with his own eyes, while simultaneously finding a reason to keep him in Changhe Palace!
Only if He Yunxiao stays obediently in Changhe Palace can I attend the coming-of-age ceremony with peace of mind!
...
He Yunxiao rushed to Changhe Palace, used the Golden Feather Token to have a big argument with the guards, and then rushed to the door of Meng Qingqian's bedroom.
There were many guards at the entrance of the Naga Palace, but when they reached the entrance of the sleeping quarters, the guards and maids suddenly disappeared.
In his haste, He Yunxiao didn't pay attention to any of this and rushed straight into the palace!
"Mengbao!"
Seeing Li Qingmeng standing safely in front of him, He Yunxiao finally felt relieved. The Emperor of Yan could devise such a ruthless tactic as "the rare poison: White Egret," so he might have other deadly methods at his disposal.
"Mengbao, you scared me to death."
He Yunxiao hugged Li Qingmeng tightly, almost holding her until she couldn't breathe.
Li Qingmeng's favorability rating has increased from 75 to 75.
Li Qingmeng's favorability rating has increased from 75 to 75.
Li Qingmeng's favorability rating has increased from 75 to 75.
[...]
Although Meng Qingqian felt uncomfortable being held by He Yunxiao, she felt indescribably satisfied and happy.
Jian Ling quietly closed the door for the two of them. Then, without a word, she jumped up into a tree to keep watch for her prince.
"Smack!"
After getting anxious, He Yunxiao got angry and slapped Mengbao's bottom without any mercy.
"Stop spreading rumors!"
Meng Qingqian felt a pain in her bottom, but unlike usual, she wasn't aggrieved or resentful. She was so happy that she wasn't angry at all.
"Listen to me first," she said softly.
"Smack!"
After reprimanding her again, He Yunxiao said irritably, "You'd better have a good reason, otherwise you won't be allowed to cry out in pain when you're being detoxified in the future."
Meng Qingqian blushed and pointed at the palace maid on the bed, saying, "Look, it's Meng Qingqian."
He Yunxiao took a closer look and realized that the woman was indeed pretty, but still far from being a leading lady. Just looking at her skin, although it was fair, it was rough, clearly not the female lead's.
Just in case Fang keeps checking the system.
Name: Liu Xiang.
Plot positioning: None.
Favorability: 70. 】
This girl isn't even a minor supporting character; she's a ghost-like female lead.
"Mengbao, who do you think she is?"
"Meng Qingqian".
He Yunxiao understood completely, but he saw through it without saying anything, instead putting on an act of complete faith.
"Oh~ so she's Princess Xiaoyue~"
