A long time after, when the black gas of resentment gradually dispersed and the imperial study room restored its calm, Leng Ruo Feng asked: “Where’s Wenzhong?”
The other two were stunned for a moment: “He ran to Xiefang palace to look for the little white dog.”
“Speaking of which, that girl is coming to the capital. Did you tell him?” Shao Zitang pondered for a moment, glancing at the two of them.
“No, isn’t that in a day or two? Isn’t it better to give him a surprise?” Yan Ran replied with a faint smile.
“Surprise?” It might just turn into fright!
“It’s getting late, let’s drop by and find him when we leave the palace.” Yan Ran glanced at the sky outside and suggested aloud.
The two naturally had no objection to this. They reluctantly took the list on the table and walked towards Xiefang palace.
As several people expected, He Wenzhong was perseveringly chasing Xiao Bai around the palace.
“Xiao Bai, don’t run!”
“Wowoo…” You’d be a fool if you don’t run, and this uncle ain’t no fool. This uncle likes girls, soft and cute girls, not rough guys like you. Stay away from this uncle, don’t chase this uncle!
With his white fur trimmed into the shape of a chrysanthemum by Xia Yuqing, Xiao Bai ran wildly. The white fur on his head took various shapes against the wind, it was really dumbfounding.
After running wild for a long time, Xiao Bai, who was chased by He Wenzhong, rushed into a remote small courtyard and found that he was in a…dead alley!
“…” Xiao Bai stiffened. Listening to the footsteps that followed, he gritted his teeth, and scuttled up the only crooked tree in the yard.
“Xiao Bai, how did you climb up the tree? It rained just last night and the tree is slippery; be good, hurry up and come down.”
“Wowo…” Don’t come here, I rather die than be insulted. If you come here, this uncle will bite you!
“Xiao Bai, come down, it’s dangerous, don’t…” Then with a slip of his feet… Before He Wenzhong could finish speaking, he heard a sharp yell. Xiao Bai had slipped from the tree.
“Xiao Bai.” He Wenzhong was taken aback. He hurriedly stepped forward and took the falling Xiao Bai into his arms.
Xiao Bai didn’t feel the pain he expected. He blinked his dog eyes and raised his head to face the strong, powerful man who was giving him a silly smile.
“Xiao Bai, are you okay? Did you get hurt anywhere?” He Wenzhong asked with concern, touching Xiao Bai’s soft white fur.
“Wowo…” Don’t touch this uncle’s head! Although you saved this uncle just now, you can’t take the opportunity to eat this uncle’s tofu (take advantage of me). Hmph, touch, you still dare touch! I told you to stop! If you touch this uncle again, I will bite you!
Xiao Bai barked and bared his big white teeth. Just about to open the blood basin and bite He Wenzhong’s arm, he heard a soft whisper: “Does Xiao Bai also miss her too?”
Her? Xiao Bai’s opened mouth froze for a while. His eyeb.a.l.l.s glanced around, only to realize…
Hey, this seems a bit familiar. Wait, this tree? !
He was only focused on escaping, xo he didn’t notice anything. Now looking closely at this tree, isn’t this where he first met his Xiao Longbao Jiejie? She was so scared that she climbed up the tree and couldn’t get down. In the end, this big bear hero saved her.
So, is the “her” this bear was mentioning… Xiao Long Bao Jiejie?
He Wenzhong touched Xiao Bai’s head, getting emotional while he reminisced: “I…I miss her so much.”
Xiao Bai looked at the obviously disappointed look on He Wenzhong’s face. He blinked, then finally gave up biting him.
Xiao Long Bao Jiejie has been away for a long time, Xiao Bai also misses her very much. Seeing that both this Big Bear and him miss Xiao Long Bao Jiejie, this time he will forgive him. Just this once!
He Wenzhong looked at Xiao Bai, who was rarely calm in his hands, and smiled. He looked up at the big tree beside him, silently.
It’s a pity that this tranquil peace couldn’t be maintained for long. This was because a certain dog hadn’t calmed down at all, thus it didn’t take long…
Xiao Bai’s ears stood up. As if he had discovered something, from He Wenzhong’s arms, he jumped out and rushed toward the courtyard gate.
“Hey, Xiao Bai, where are you going? Don’t run!” He Wenzhong was taken aback, then started the cat and mouse chasing game again, rus.h.i.+ng towards the place where Xiao Bai ran off to.
At this moment, on the small palace road not far from the courtyard, Xia Yuqing, who was walking slowly with her second baby, didn’t know that a small cannonball was rus.h.i.+ng towards her at a speed visible to the naked eye.
“Niang Niang, what are you going to do with Miss He Fang?” Lu Rui asked in a low voice, walking beside Xia Yuqing.
“Well.” Xia Yuqing twisted her eyebrows in distress. She sighed after a moment of contemplation: “Although she is kind to me, she is still a member of the Ying Chun Yuan. Listening to her remarks, it doesn’t seem that she was Ye Jiuniang’s people, but now that Ye Jiuniang is dead, there is no evidence. The only person who can confirm her ident.i.ty is…Xiao Xi. So…”
“So?”
“So we’ll keep her under house arrest first.”
“……” Niang Niang, is it really good for you to treat your savior so casually? Will there be retribution!?
“Cough cough, we’ll keep her locked up first. Have the old imperial doctors treat her, wait until I write a letter to Xiao Xi to confirm whether her words are true or not.”
“…” So that’s the case. Niang Niang, can you not take such a deep breath when you’re saying something? Nu Bi will easily misunderstand!
“Then what if her words are not true? What are you going to do?”
“Well…” Xia Yuqing raised her head and looked at the sky for a moment. All the ladies behind her p.r.i.c.ked up their ears, looking forward to their masters words. As a result…
“Let’s talk about it then, I haven’t figured it out yet.”
“Kuang Dang…” The group of people behind Xia Yuqing slipped and fell to the ground like dominoes.
“Hahaha…” The second baby looked at everyone’s staggering appearance. She clapped her hands and laughed.
Xia Yuqing squeezed her face and smiled helplessly: “Being a child is good, you don’t have to worry about anything.”
“…” Niang Niang, you don’t even bother to think about things like dealing with people, what are your troubles? What is it? !
“Huh, what’s that sound?” After Xia Yuqing ate a few mouthfuls of soft tofu (taking advantage of second baby), she suddenly heard a movement from behind her. She turned her head in surprise.
Smoke and dust billowed, and in the next second, a ball that looked like a small cannonball rushed out of the center of the smoke and dust, hitting Xia Yuqing’s feet. This caused Xia Yuqing to stagger, almost falling.
“Niang Niang, are you okay?” Lu Rui and Cui Er took a quick step forward to stabilize Xia Yuqing.
Xia Yuqing shook her head. She looked at her second baby, then looked down: “Xiao Bai, are you trying to imitate the rabbit of Shou Zhu Dai Tu (idiom that tells a lesson; in the lesson there is a rabbit that dashes frantically without looking and ends up dying when they hit a stump head-first), why were you so fierce das.h.i.+ng over?”
After sizing up Xiao Bai, she condescendingly stated: “Xiao Bai, why did you make yourself dirty again? Be careful, otherwise they won’t let you in at night. Also, Xiao Bai, what’s wrong with your chrysanthemum hairstyle? What did you do to my little chrysanthemum?!”
“…”
After Xiao Bai turned into a rock for a moment, he barked: “Wowo…”
What “your” little chrysanthemum? It’s clearly my little chrysanthemum! Ah, no, it’s my fur!
Xiao Bai yelled for a long time, venting a little bit of his anger before he remembered his original intention of rus.h.i.+ng over: “Wowo…” Master, someone behind is chasing this uncle. Hurry up and drive that person away!
“Huh?” Xia Yuqing looked down at Xiao Bai who was biting down on her skirt and pulling hard: “Xiao Bai, what are you doing? Do you have rabies?”
“… wowowo!” You have rabies, your whole family has rabies! Master, you don’t even understand Xiao Bai’s heart!
Xiao Bai proudly let go of her, turned his head, and ignored Xia Yuqing.
Xia Yuqing glanced at Xiao Bai with some suspicion. Just when she wanted to ask aloud, she heard a familiar voice not far away: “Xiao Bai, Xiao Bai, where have you gone?”
“General He…” Xia Yuqing heard the sound and turned her head to face He Wenzhong who hurried over.
“Hey, Your Highness, why are you here?”
“I came out for a walk. General He rarely enters the palace, did you come to see Xiao Bai?” Xia Yuqing looked at Xiao Bai’s awkward appearance and suddenly realized the situation.
“Yeah…” He Wenzhong smiled and scratched the back of his head, a little embarra.s.sed, “But Xiao Bai doesn’t seem to like me looking for him.”
“Doesn’t like it? How could that be?” Xia Yuqing glanced at Xiao Bai in the distance, then realized, “I know, it must be because you hurt its little chrysanthemum, that must be why he was angry!”
Pu…As soon as she finished saying this, Xia Yuqing sprayed out her spit first. How come this sounds like a human beast! Stop it, don’t think about it anymore, otherwise you will definitely be mosaiced! (hurting chrysanthium aka hurt his b.u.t.t hole)
“It’s little chrysanthemum?” He Wenzhong looked at Xiao Bai blankly, very puzzled.
“Ahem, it’s the thing on top of its head. I personally cut it. Isn’t it beautiful?”
“Oh…” He Wenzhong suddenly realized that he did seem to have touched Xiao Bai’s head when he saw Xiao Bai without paying any attention. His new hairstyle, so… so because he accidentally messed up his hair, it made him angry?
“It turned out to be like this. Xiao Bai, Xiao Bai, I was wrong, I shouldn’t have messed up your hair, don’t be angry.”
“Wowo…” It’s not like that! Don’t come over, don’t come over, don’t eat this uncle’s tofu indiscriminately! Let go of this uncle, let go of this uncle!
Just as He Wenzhong was busy communicating with Xiao Bai and developing their relations.h.i.+p, everyone heard the sound of running footsteps.
“Be careful, Niang Niang.” Cui Er was the first to notice the aggressive nature of the incoming person. She quickly stepped forward to block Xia Yuqing’s front, protecting Xia Yuqing and her second baby.
At the same time, a rocket-like figure leaped towards Xia Yuqing with billowing smoke and dust, and shouted: “Little Royal Sister!”
“Third Princess?” Cui Er froze for a moment, then in the next second, she was pushed aside.
“Little Royal Sister, Little Royal Sister, are you okay? Your Royal Older Sister did not expect that you would be kidnapped while shopping in your own capital. Your Royal Sister was negligent. Those groups of robbers were too rampant! If it were in our Xia Country, would they dare to be so unscrupulous?!” Xia Muyun hugged Xia Yuqing and said very indignantly.
“…” That’s because Third Royal Sister is too st.u.r.dy, they dare not attack you! If Third Royal Sister knew that this was the second time she was kidnapped, how would she feel? Cough cough…
“Cough cough cough, who cleaned this palace road? There is so much dust. Go back and remember to deduct their pay, no, their salary.” Xia Yuqing choked on the dust that came on her face.
“Okay, Niang Niang.”
“Third Royal Sister, I’m okay, let me go first, you’re pressing down on Dundun.”
“Ahhhhhhhhhhh?” Xia Muyun paused, then discovered Xia Yuqing was holding a little baby. Looking at her in horror, she hurriedly let go of her.
“Oh, Xiao Dundun is here too? Come to auntie!”
The second baby shrank back in fear. This woman looked terrible. When she rushed over, the ground seemed to tremble several times. It’s like… like… no matter what, it’s terrible!
The poor second baby obviously didn’t know that she had regarded Xia Muyun as a creature named G.o.dzilla.
Seeing the second baby squeeze into her arms, her little hand clutching her s.h.i.+rt, Xia Yuqing coughed in embarra.s.sment, “Royal Sister, this kid is shy with strangers, don’t take it to heart.”
“How could I? Xiao Dundun is too cute, I must have scared her just now.” Xia Muyun sighed lightly, “It’s fine if you are okay. I heard that there was a disturbance in the suburbs yesterday. It was a big movement, and I was worried that something happened to you. Now that I can see that you are fine, I’m relieved.”
“Yeah, hey, Royal Sister’s dress is…” Xia Yuqing nodded, then discovered that Xia Muyun’s dress today was very different from usual.
She was still dressed in red, but since arriving in Ye Kingdom, in order not to be noticeable, Xia Muyun changed into Ye Kingdom’s clothing. Now this dress…was Xia Kingdom’s clothes. Can it be that… Third Royal Sister was finally impatient with the Iceberg Prime Minister, so she was ready to just disappear?
Xia Muyun seemed to see through what Xia Yuqing was thinking and smiled: “What’s with your expression? Something just popped up and I have to go back temporarily to deal with it personally.”
“Go back and deal with it personally? What’s the matter? Is it serious? Is it?” Xia Yuqing became a little worried when she heard that Xia Muyun was really leaving and going back to Xia Country.
“It’s nothing, it’s just that I ran out for too long, so I have to go back. Otherwise, father will think you kidnapped me somewhere.”
Xia Yuqing twisted her eyebrows. She keenly sensed the peculiarity of Xia Muyun’s words, and asked tentatively: “It’s just that?”
“What else? Little Royal Sister, do you think your Royal Sister is running because I accidentally lost you this time? Or did you think that someone hurt me and I was going to give up like this, ready to flee home with her tail tucked between her legs to file a complaint.” Xia Muyun stared at Xia Yuqing playfully, with a cheerful smile on her face as always, making people feel like there wasn’t anything strange.
“Of course not, why would I think that?” Xia Yuqing laughed dryly. She shook her head hurriedly, but was still a little uncertain, “It really isn’t because of the Prime Minister?”
Xia Muyun was taken aback. The smile on her face froze for a moment, but she immediately recovered: “En, it’s really not.”
After speaking, she reached out and put her hand on Xia Yuqing’s shoulder: “Don’t underestimate your Royal Sister. As long as it’s the man your Royal Sister likes, no one has ever escaped the palm of my hand. Just take a good look.”
“…” Royal Sister, don’t speak like you have a lot of experience. Royal Sister, I have personally verified with our two Royal brothers. Although you like to flirt with the innocent and weak, you have not even held hands with them!
Xia Yuqing looked at her Royal Sister bragging. Seeing her like this, it really shouldn’t be due to Iceberg Prime Minister.
Xia Yuqing was a little relieved, and asked with a faint smile, “When is Royal Sister going to leave?”
“Tomorrow.”
“Huh?”
“Tomorrow morning.”
“!” Xia Yuqing was stunned and exclaimed. “That quick?”
“I have to go back sooner or later, it’s better to go back early, so I can return early.” Xia Muyun said with a light smile.
“Um, Royal Sister what are you going to do about the Prime Minister?” Xia Yuqing still didn’t give up, feeling that Xia Muyun choosing to leave at this time was a bit strange.
“He…” The smile on Xia Muyun’s face paused. Then, she heard sounds of footsteps behind her and…
“Did Wen Zhong really go this way? Why is it getting more and more remote?”
“What those girls said is right, Ruofeng, we heard it right.”
“Yeah.”
A short word shocked Xia Muyun’s body, and Xia Yuqing’s eyes lit up. Speaking of the devil, the Prime Minister really appeared at this time. It is really…
“Prime minister…” Xia Yuqing was about to call out, but was stopped by Xia Muyun first. She looked at Xia Muyun suspiciously, but then saw that her gaze had pa.s.sed over her, and she was fixated on He Wenzhong next to her.
“…” Why do I suddenly feel a chill down my back. I have a very bad premonition.
Facts have proven that Xia Yuqing’s premonition was completely correct, because in the next second…
“What’s so interesting about that dead face? He’s rigid, conservative, and doesn’t know how to treat the opposite s.e.x properly. The only thing he knows how to do is let out air-conditioning all day long. What a waste of a handsome face!” Xia Muyun raised her voice, causing everyone present to be shocked. Then, under everyone’s surprised gaze, she stepped forward and held the hands of He Wenzhong, who couldn’t figure out the situation at all. She smiled brightly.
“Royal Sister, I thought about it. Rather than that stiff iceberg…”
“What?” Xia Yuqing froze completely, feeling a surging chill coming from behind her. She was. .h.i.t hard by it and was s.h.i.+vering. Uuuu, such a hot day, yet I’m s.h.i.+vering with the cold, this does not make sense at all!
“I might as well… find another way out.”
“…”
“Royal Sister, General He isn’t bad. Look at his strong body, it’s not inferior to the appearance of that dead iceberg. The most important thing is that he looks like a man who knows how to treasure people, not like that dead face, who only knows how to air-condition all day long. He really is no fun.” Xia Muyun smiled and hugged He Wenzhong’s arm tightly, but the light from the corner of her eyes kept watching Leng Ruofeng not far away.
“…” Xia Yuqing was awkward in an instant. Royal Sister, Royal Sister, don’t give up intervention at this time! I told you to find a man to stimulate the Prime Minister, to take drastic measures when nothing else can be done. But I didn’t let you make random moves regardless of time or occasion! It’s over, it’s all over!
“I…I…” The poor big bear who was not good with words was taken aback by the change. He wanted to speak out but didn’t know what to say, he was helpless. He cast his gaze on the people on the side for help, but it was a pity that most of the people present were frozen and could not move at all, let alone speak for him.
“How could that girl say that, Ruo Feng…” Yan Ran was very angry. He wanted to come forward and speak to Xia Muyun, but was stopped by Shao Zi Tang.
“Little Tangtang…”
“Shut up, if you dare to call me that name, I’ll pull your tongue out. This is their house affairs, are you bored and have nothing better to do than mess with their stuff?”
“But…”
“Yes?” Shao Zitang slowly stretched his hand to the weapon on his waist, successfully making Yan Ran fall silent.
Leng Ruofeng slowly walked towards Xia Muyun’s direction with a calm face. The cold chill caused everyone on the side to s.h.i.+ver and tremble. This is terrible, please let us go Prime Minister!
Xia Muyun deliberately ignored the expression on Leng Ruofeng’s face, but she could feel the coldness coming from behind her. The hand holding He Wenzhong’s arm tightened.
“You…”
Just as everyone was holding their breath and watching the development silently, another sharp yell came forth: “That b*tch in front, if you don’t let go of my man, be warned that I will chop your hand off!”
