"Just say whatever you want to say," Qi Wuyou said.

She has been tied up here, so just tell her the truth, no need for any prelude.

"Actually, we know each other." Xuan Yelan said.

"I know." Isn't that nonsense?

"We've known each other for a long time."

"Oh, I heard that your three sisters have been in the palace for five years, and Lord Lu has been with you for seven or eight years." Qi Wuyou replied.

I have heard these things from my nanny so many times that my ears are callused.

What on earth are you trying to say? You're wasting my sleep time.

"No, we have known each other for eighteen years," Xuan Yelan said again. Basically no one knew about these things.

People only believed that it was the Queen Mother who brought them together, but in fact, not long after the Queen Mother adopted him, he found an excuse to secretly summon them into the palace, and they got to know each other at that time.

Qi Wuyou:!

But on second thought, it's not quite right. Concubine Shu is the niece of the Queen Mother. It's possible that they have known each other for such a long time. As for the others...

"What is the relationship between the Li family and the Lu family?" Qi Wuyou asked Chen Fei.

"The Queen Mother is my aunt," replied Concubine Chen.

"What about the Zhou family?" Qi Wuyou looked at Concubine Rong again.

"Our Zhou family has nothing to do with the Li family." Concubine Rong replied.

Qi Wuyou breathed a sigh of relief, then raised it again.

"But my mother is Lu Yue's aunt."

Qi Wuyou: "......" So I'm the only outsider here? The clown is actually me?

"We didn't hide it from you on purpose," Xuan Yelan explained anxiously, "It's just that the relationship between the Zhou, Lu, and Li families is a secret, and few people know about it."

"Oh, it's okay." Qi Wuyou recovered quickly. Her psychological endurance was extremely strong now.

"So what do you want to know?" Qi Wuyou asked.

"She is Doctor He's daughter," replied Concubine Rong.

Qi Wuyou understood, it was indeed because of this incident.

However, since they are in the same group, Xuan Yelan will definitely not hide from them the fact that Madam He is in the imperial capital.

It's just that they have never met Mrs. He, so they keep asking her. After all, asking her is the fastest way.

"I know who is the daughter of Doctor He you are talking about." Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"She is indeed my mother, and I know where she is now, but..." Qi Wuyou deliberately paused.

"Whatever you want, just tell me." Xuan Yelan said anxiously.

"You must promise me that you will let my mother come here only to treat the empress dowager. Even if she cannot be cured, you must release her and do not reveal her identity to anyone else." Qi Wuyou said.

"That's it? No problem?"

"Also, my mother will not enter the palace." Qi Wuyou said again.

"That's fine," Xuan Yelan thought for a moment. The palace was indeed not suitable, so he decided to go out of the palace and try. His mother often complained that she hadn't been to the market for a long time.

"Then I have no objection." Qi Wuyou said.

Seeing Qi Wuyou yawn, everyone looked at each other and left one after another, even Lu Yu left.

Before leaving, he gave Xuan Yelan a look.

Qi Wuyou:? No one will take care of me? I will go back by myself?

"Go to sleep if you're sleepy. Don't toss and turn. You sleep on the bed and I'll sleep on the couch," said Xuan Yelan.

Qi Wuyou was not pretentious. She didn't care whether it was a dragon bed or not. She would just sleep on it in the end. She was really too sleepy.

Xuan Yelan lay on the couch, looking at Qi Wuyou's peaceful sleeping face, listening to her steady breathing, and had a rare good sleep without any dreams that night.

The next day, Fengyi Palace.

Mei Xue went in as usual to open the window for ventilation, and suddenly noticed that the bed curtain was lifted. There was no one on the bed, and even the quilt was gone.

Mei Xue searched the hall but didn't see Qi Wuyou.

"Ahhhh, something happened. Her Royal Highness the Princess is missing." Mei Xue shouted as she ran out and just happened to meet Liu He who was looking for her.

"Eunuch Liu, our princess is missing," Mei Xue said anxiously. How could she disappear for no reason while living in the palace?

"It is for this matter that we came to see Miss Mei Xue." Liu He said.

"The Queen stayed in the imperial study yesterday and is still sleeping. Miss Mei Xue and her men will go and wait for her first." Liu He said with a smile.

Mei Xue: When did you go there? How come I don’t know?

But Mei Xue didn't ask anything. She probably wouldn't get any answers from Liu He, so it would be better to ask the princess directly.

A moment later, Mei Xue and several maids were waiting outside the imperial study.

When Xuan Yelan came back from court, he saw Mei Xue guarding the door of the imperial study.

Xuan Yelan glanced at Lu Yu who was oblivious to what was happening beside him and said, "You should go back first. I have something else to do."

Damn it, I let him follow me today out of habit.

"Okay, I'll leave right away." Lu Yu naturally saw Mei Xue as well.

Although I know you didn't do anything last night, it's really misleading that you're still not awake.

"Your Highness," Mei Xue bowed to Xuan Yelan reluctantly.

She now suspected that it was Xuan Yelan who secretly took the princess away and made her sleep in the imperial study, tarnishing her reputation.

Mei Xue now dislikes everything about Xuan Yelan. He looks like a decent human being, but he is actually a beast in human clothing.

Xuan Yelan frowned:? Why are you glaring at me? I thought I didn't do anything to you, did I?

"Meixue," Qi Wuyou's muffled voice was heard in the imperial study.

"Princess," Mei Xue was anxious. She pretended not to notice and took advantage of the hem of her skirt to step hard on Xuan Yelan's foot.

Xuan Yelan: “…” It hurts, but for the sake of my wise and brave image, I endure it.

Xuan Yelan glared at Mei Xue's back angrily. Well, now even a little palace maid like you is bullying me. Wait till you see how I will deal with you. Oh, and that Hu Niu, wait till you see how I will deal with both of you.

Mei Xue walked to the bedside. Qi Wuyou had just woken up and was rubbing his eyes.

The bed is so hard today, and it doesn’t even have the peach blossom scent that Mei Xue specially prepared.

"Princess?" Seeing Mei Xue coming over, Qi Wuyou sat up and looked at the unfamiliar bright yellow bed curtains, a little dazed.

Hearing the footsteps, Qi Wuyou looked up and suddenly met Xuan Yelan's eyes.

Oh, this is not my bed. I was wondering why I was sleeping so uncomfortably.

Qi Wuyou stood up quickly, "Meixue, let's go back."

When passing by Xuan Yelan, Qi Wuyou said, "Thank you for your bed."

"You're welcome." Xuan Yelan smiled at Qi Wuyou, as if in a spring breeze.

Qi Wuyou: Hey, you're right. I haven't really looked at your appearance before, but you're actually quite good-looking. You're eight feet tall, with fair skin. Your handsome facial features are even more distinct, and your lips are as rosy as if they were painted with rouge. You look even better when you smile.

Qi Wuyou blushed as she looked at him. She really wanted to fall in love with such a handsome guy.

Then her eyes dimmed. I don't want to share a husband with others. I only want to be with one person for the rest of my life.

Thinking of Xuan Yelan's three concubines, Qi Wuyou could only sigh that the two of them were destined not to be together.

"Let's go back first," Qi Wuyou said again, his tone filled with obvious disappointment.

After saying that, Qi Wuyou left.

Xuan Yelan looked at Qi Wuyou's back. He clearly saw Qi Wuyou blushing just now, which means that she also has a good impression of him, but why is she sad again?
