After crossing over, the demon king rolled in my arms and acted like a spoiled child

"How is Qingyue doing now?" asked the Queen Mother.

The queen replied quietly, "My mother, I have been in a daze and unconscious."

The Queen Mother sighed heavily and her face became a little sad.

She said to the Queen, "I brought someone here today to serve Qingyue. I believe Qingyue will be happier with her serving her."

After she finished speaking, Bai Jiyue walked forward and saluted the queen.

The Queen sighed: "I told you that the princess was seriously ill and asked you to go back first. Why did you go and trouble the Queen Mother?"

"I was really worried about the princess, so I disturbed the Queen Mother. I told the Queen Mother that I am willing to go to the palace to take care of Princess Qingyue!" Bai Jiyue answered in a clear voice.

The Queen waved her hands: "How can this be allowed! Although your position is not high, you are also an official appointed by the court. How can I let an official appointed by the court serve the princess? Moreover, the princess is suffering from an epidemic, which is extremely dangerous. You should save your life and help His Majesty the Emperor to share his worries!"

"I get along well with Her Royal Highness the Princess and want to take care of Her Royal Highness. I have experience taking care of patients with epidemic diseases in the Dark Stone Wasteland before. Her Royal Highness will definitely feel better with me taking care of her. I'm sure the Emperor will allow me to do this once he hears about it. Please grant me your permission, Queen!"

Bai Jiyue said this and kowtowed to the queen.

The queen looked unhappy and said nothing.

The Queen Mother said, "Look at this child, she is so sincere for Qingyue. This sincerity is really precious. Since she has repeatedly requested, you should agree to her request. What's wrong with having one more person to take care of Qingyue?"

The Queen bowed slightly to the Queen Mother and said, "In that case, I will obey your command."

She stepped forward and held the Queen Mother's arm: "Mother, you haven't been feeling well recently. Why bother to make this trip in person for Qingyue? Why not send a nanny to bring Bai Jiyue here?

The Queen Mother smiled and patted her hands: "I am also worried about Qingyue, and want to ask about her situation."

"Then mother, please go back and rest soon. As soon as there is any progress on Qingyue's side, I will send someone to inform you immediately, okay?"

The Queen Mother smiled and said, "Of course it's fine. I will go back then."

Everyone respectfully saw the Queen Mother off. After she left, the Queen turned and looked at Bai Jiyue with a gloomy expression.

"You probably don't know the danger of the epidemic Princess Qingyue is suffering from. The imperial physician said it's a life-threatening situation. Do you really want to go in and accompany Princess Qingyue? You don't even consider what will happen to your family if you can't go back?"

Bai Jiyue knew that if she insisted on going in, she would most likely be killed by the Queen.

She smiled and said, "I believe that Princess Qingyue is blessed by heaven and will definitely be able to turn danger into safety."

"Do you still want to go in?" The queen's voice was a little stern.

Bai Jiyue used silence instead of answering.

The Queen seemed to take a deep breath and said patiently, "The Queen Mother, the Emperor, and even I all know your loyalty to the princess. I pity someone as loyal as you and I don't want anything to happen to you. I will give you one last chance to choose. You can choose not to go in. I will tell everyone that I was the one who stopped you from going in. I will not let your loyalty be misunderstood by the Emperor."

Bai Jiyue bowed: "The Queen is so kind and generous, and she cares so much about me. If I don't know what's good for me, I will really let you down. So, I'll take my leave!"

As she spoke, she stood up straight, and when she turned to leave, the corner of her clothes fluttered, revealing a jade pendant hanging around her waist. The jade was pure white with a hint of blood red in the middle.

When the queen saw the jade pendant, her pupils trembled. She opened her mouth, but the words were stuck in her throat and she couldn't utter them.

What should she say? Should she confess and let others know the truth?

Bai Jiyue did not look back at the queen, but she could feel the queen's piercing gaze on her.

She curled the corners of her lips slightly and quickened her pace to walk out.

That night, Bai Jiyue invited a few friends to dinner at Yanxiang Tower in the capital.

Ma Qiao and Zhu Yuan knew how to liven up the atmosphere. Everyone toasted each other and drank a lot.

After coming out of Yanxiang Building, Bai Jiyue said to them, "You go back first. I want to go to the Rouge and Powder Shop to buy some household items for my mother and sister."

The men all said goodbye, leaving Bai Jiyue alone to go shopping.

Bai Jiyue was walking towards the rouge and powder shop. In order to be faster, she took a shortcut and planned to go through the alley.

Just as she turned into a dark and sparsely populated alley, she suddenly felt the sound of wind in her ears. She quickly turned sideways and saw a shining sword stabbing past her cheek.

She quickly drew out her fatal sword, but before the sword could pierce the opponent, she felt a shock on the back of her neck and lost consciousness...

When she woke up again, she found herself in a dark room, her whole body was tied up tightly, and a piece of cloth was stuffed in her mouth.

She tried to wield the sword to cut the ropes that bound her, but she found that the sword seemed to have been taken away, and there was nothing around that she could wield.

"Woo woo woo!" She tried to make a sound and twisted her body.

After a while, the door creaked open and someone walked in.

From the figure, Bai Jiyue recognized it as a woman, but she was wearing a veiled hat, so her specific appearance could not be seen clearly. Behind her followed a woman, probably her personal bodyguard.

The personal guard came forward and removed the cloth gagged in her mouth.

Bai Jiyue immediately asked: "Who are you and why did you tie me up?"

"We won't hurt you. We'll let you go as long as you answer a few questions." said the female guard.

The woman in the lead stood at a distance with her back to Bai Jiyue.

"What's the problem?" Bai Jiyue asked coldly.

The female guard raised her hand, and there was a jade pendant hanging on her finger.

Bai Jiyue subconsciously looked at her waist and found that her jade pendant had been taken away by them.

"Give me back the jade pendant!" she shouted.

"Where did you get this jade pendant?" asked the female guard.

"What does it have to do with you!"

"If you don't answer the questions properly, don't blame us for being rude to you!" The female guard's voice turned cold.

"Princess Qingyue gave it to me." Bai Jiyue replied.

The female guard walked over to the woman who had her back to her, leaned over to listen to her instructions, then turned around and said to Bai Jiyue, "You're lying."

"How do you know I lied?" Bai Jiyue smiled coldly.

As soon as she finished speaking, the female guard's face suddenly changed. She pointed at Bai Jiyue and said in shock: "You set an ambush!"

She hurriedly protected the woman and was about to leave, but it was too late. She and the woman could no longer stand steadily. They swayed a few times and both fell to the ground.

Then, two people walked in from outside, they were Bai Ji Ri and Ming Yuan.

Bai Ji Ri stepped forward to untie the ropes that bound Bai Ji Yue. Bai Ji Yue immediately went over and lifted the veil that the woman was wearing, revealing a face that was extremely beautiful!
