The princess returns strongly, and the divorced regent is busy chasing his wife

Duke's Mansion

The Duke was stunned when he heard what Gu Ying said. His beloved daughter ran away from her marriage. How was it possible? His daughter had always been obedient. How could she run away from her marriage?

The Duke simply couldn't believe what Gu Ying said. He raised his head and looked at the Regent who was sitting in the main seat. Seeing that the Regent had no expression on his face and didn't seem to want to speak, the Duke began to believe that what Gu Ying said was true.

Her good girl really ran away from marriage. Why did she run away? Where could a girl like her go? How could a girl who never left the house survive if she ran away?

The Duke thought to himself, and his expression became serious, and he couldn't hide his worry.

At this time, the Regent King spoke again: "Duke Lu, has your daughter ever practiced martial arts?"

The Duke of Lu replied: "My daughter has been raised in seclusion since she was young and has never learned martial arts."

The Regent nodded thoughtfully, stood up and said to Duke Lu: "The princess ran away from the marriage, this is a family scandal, I hope the Duke will keep it a secret. If the young lady comes back, please send someone to report to the palace."

Duke Lu stood up, bowed and said respectfully: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will report to the palace as soon as my daughter returns."

The Regent did not bother to talk to Duke Lu any more. He lifted his long legs and walked out.

After seeing off the Regent, Duke Lu turned to the servant beside him and said, "Go and ask the Madam to come to the study."

Soon, Lady Li Xueluo trotted to Duke Lu's study, and Duke Lu asked, "Has Ling'er come back in the past two days?"

Li Xueluo quickly replied, "Didn't Ling'er marry into the Prince Regent's Palace? How could she come back in less than three days?"

The Duke continued slowly, "Just now the Regent said that Ling'er is missing. Where can a girl like her go?"

The Duke looked at Li with melancholy, trying to see the answer from her eyes.

But nothing could be seen, only the panic in Li's eyes.

"Ms. Li, have you ever hidden anything from me?" Duke Lu suddenly said coldly.

Li Xueluo had an ominous premonition in her heart. Could it be that the Duke knew about that? It was impossible. That thing was done by her trusted nanny. She couldn't betray her, and the Duke couldn't know about that.

Li Xueluo pretended to be cheerful and said, "My Lord, I have nothing to hide from you. How could I possibly hide something from you?"

The Duke said in a resolute voice: "It's best if you don't have it. If I find out that you are hiding something from me in the future, I will not forgive you. Go down. If Ling'er comes back in the next few days, you must tell me."

Li was so scared that she left the study room and went back to her own courtyard. She thought as she walked, "On the day of that bitch's wedding, she asked the nanny beside her to poison that bitch. Could she have died from the poison? That kind of poison stimulates lust, and can only be detoxified by having sex with a man. The original intention was to make her look bad. Could it be that there was no detoxification and the poison exploded and she died?"

"The regent was afraid that he hadn't given the Duke's Mansion an explanation, so he said that the bitch was missing. After all, it was the emperor who granted the marriage, so even the prince wouldn't dare to go too far."

Li was so happy thinking about it that she couldn't hide the smile on her face. Who made that bitch so lucky to marry the regent of the dynasty? The position of princess should have been her daughter's. Why should that bitch take it?

Now that that bitch is dead, it's really a relief and it makes me excited just thinking about it.

On the other side, the woman walked leisurely to a magnificent building and stopped.

The most dangerous place is the safest place. The best hiding place a woman can think of is the Regent's Palace.

That bastard would never have thought that I was hiding right under his nose.

Looking at the tall wall, fortunately she was an agent in her previous life, so this wall was as easy as walking on the ground for her.

He stepped back, ran for a while, leaped up to climb to the top of the wall, then flipped over and jumped into the wall of the Regent's Palace.

Because I am not familiar with the Regent's Palace, I don't know where she jumped in?

The Regent's Palace was too big, as big as four Duke's Palaces. After sneaking around, I still had no idea where to hide. Anyway, the palace was so big that I could just find a remote courtyard to hide in.

Ouyang Miaoling went to a remote courtyard in the backyard. It seemed that no one had lived there before. The yard was overgrown with weeds. She walked in and opened the door. The house was fully furnished with daily necessities, but there was a thick layer of dust. It could be lived in after a simple cleanup.

He made a decision right away, to stay in the palace first, and then be prepared for any changes.

There was no news from Ouyang Miaoling for several days. Listening to the reports from his subordinates, the Regent became very annoyed. Because this was the imperial capital, the people had to live and the city gates could not be closed for too long, so his subordinates sought the Regent's opinion.

"Open the city gates, withdraw all searching officers and soldiers, and stop searching." The Regent said.

Then he said to Wushang: "Send over a group of secret guards. I want to relax on the outside and tighten on the inside. The officers and soldiers will withdraw, and the secret guards will be dispatched. Always watch the city gate to see if there are any suspicious people. If there are, don't take action inside the city."

"Yes"

Wushang accepted the order and went to carry out the mission.

The man began to think alone, where could Ouyang Miaoling hide? He thought for a long time but had no clue.

"Guying, accompany me to the courtyard for a walk. The study is so stuffy."

A skeletal figure appeared out of nowhere from the darkness and followed the man.

The man was walking and thinking, and suddenly he seemed to think of something.

He turned to Gu Ying and said, "Go get a team of people and search our house from top to bottom."

Guying immediately understood that their master was suspicious that their princess was hiding in his house.

After receiving the order, Gu Ying immediately arranged for people to search the yard.

Since Ouyang Miaoling moved into the palace, she has been feeling uneasy and thinking about anything that might happen every day.

She had stolen a set of servant's clothes early on, and just when Gu Ying notified everyone to gather in the yard, Ouyang Miaoling mixed in with the servant's team and followed the group to search each yard.

The man could never have imagined that Ouyang Miaoling was hanging around right under his nose.

Suddenly, a servant came over and reported, "There is a deserted courtyard in the back, and it seems that someone has lived there. The courtyard has been abandoned for many years, and the maids and servants don't live there."

After hearing the servant's report, the man became uneasy. That woman really impressed him.

Surrounded by a group of servants, they came to the deserted courtyard to check it out.

The yard was deserted, overgrown with weeds and lush vegetation because no one had cleaned it for years, and it looked a bit eerie.

When I pushed the door open and went in, I saw that the bed was very clean, and the table and teacups in the room were all clean.

The cleanliness of the house seems out of place compared to the desolation of the yard.

Obviously there are people living here.

This courtyard was where the concubine lived in the past few years for the sake of seclusion.

Ever since the concubine went to the Taoist temple to practice meditation, this place has been abandoned for many years.

This sudden sign of someone living here is probably that woman who took a risk and moved in.

The man roared: "Search thoroughly, inside and out, don't miss any corner."
