In the palace.

Hengheng was running around barefoot.

There were many little mermaids around playing with him.

Hengheng was running around happily! His cheerful voice filled the whole room.

When Song Xingyue saw this scene, she finally felt relieved.

"Hengheng!"

She walked quickly towards her son and held him in her arms.

The mermaid sisters immediately evacuated to both sides and stood there silently as if waiting for something.

"My dear Hengheng, did you miss your mother when she was not around?"

She held Hengheng's face and kissed him several times.

Hengheng was still very confused at the beginning.

It may be because the child is a little shy after being away from his mother for a long time.

But he soon recognized that it was his mother! He immediately waved his little hands and kissed his mother twice.

"Mom!~"

He kissed them very skillfully, and one could tell at a glance that these mermaid sisters often teased him.

"I'm so glad you're okay."

Song Xingyue couldn't help but tears up her eyes.

I have been worried about my son's safety all the time. Now that I see that he is fine, I feel relieved.

"Xiyue."

She held Hengheng in her arms and turned to question him.

"Why did you arrest my son in the first place?"

"I'm sorry Princess."

Xiyue lowered her head and admitted her mistake sincerely.

"The main reason is that the eight of us have been waiting for the princess for too long, but the princess has never been willing to come down. We can only capture your cub, so that you will come down."

"Won't you come find me if I don't go down?"

"But the Queen said before that we can only appear if you personally choose to go into the sea."

Xiyue was about to cry of grievance, and she just looked at her with red eyes.

"We really have no choice, so we...we mainly miss the princess too much."

Xiyue knelt down on one knee and began to inherit the mistake.

The other mermaids also knelt on the ground, and it was obvious that they were well-trained.

Song Xingyue didn't expect that they would react so strongly to just a question.

I really don’t know how much fun Mengmeng has in her daily life.

"I'm just asking..."

Song Xingyue looked at her son who was having fun, and after thinking it over, she decided to send her son back first.

Because this time I came to the deep sea not for fun, but for other things.

"In that case, please help me send Heng Heng up. You must hand him over to Ling Mu personally."

Hengheng looked at Mama eagerly, not understanding what Mama meant.

Xiyue immediately walked over and held Hengheng in her arms, then handed him to another little mermaid brother.

The little mermaid immediately picked up Hengheng and swam towards the land.

Song Xingyue watched their backs as they left, and then asked with concern.

"Where is Ji Yunxiu?"

"Ji Yunxiu has been locked up..."

Xiyue could only answer truthfully.

"Because now the deep sea is no longer under our control."

Xiyue looked at Song Xingyue sadly and spoke word by word.

"In the past... the Queen of the Seven Warriors was a distinguished guest in our deep sea. She could go down to the sea once a year at a specific time and take away three resources each time. But this time, I don't know what happened, she just came..."

He seemed to have thought of something terrible and couldn't help but curl up into a ball.

"After she arrived, she actually declared her sovereignty in the East Palace, saying that she would control the entire deep sea in the future. Ji Yunxiu disagreed, so he fought with her. But her staff caused great harm to us mermaids, so... she was injured and is now locked up."

Song Xingyue's brows furrowed as she listened.

What is this mess?

She claimed to be the empress and then set up the East Palace.

What kind of Chinese and Western combination is Mengmeng playing in the deep sea?

"Where is the East Palace?"

“It’s still some distance from us.”

Xiyue thought about it and answered carefully.

"Princess, are you going to the East Palace? But the empress is too dangerous. Princess, please don't take the risk. This place is far from the East Palace. They won't be able to find us."

Song Xingyue believed that it was safe here.

Otherwise, according to the empress's character, she would definitely come if she knew Hengheng was here.

Hengheng has not been discovered in the deep sea for such a long time, which means this place is safe enough.

But Ji Yunxiu...

"Where is Ji Yunxiu being held?"

"Also near the East Palace."

Xiyue felt somewhat aggrieved when she saw that the princess wanted to save Ji Yunxiu.

"Princess, in fact, it's not just Ji Yunxiu who has been waiting for you in the deep sea. We have also been waiting for you for a long time."

He reached out his hand tentatively and tugged at the corner of the princess's clothes, hoping that the princess would stay.

"We exist for you. If you can't favor us, then what are the decades before us?"

"that……"

Although Song Xingyue loves handsome men, she also loves boys with abdominal muscles.

But right now, Ji Yunxiu's life or death is uncertain, and I really am not in the mood to think about that kind of thing.

"How about you guys wait? We can talk about it after Ji Yunxiu is safe?"

"If the princess doesn't favor us, we won't take you to find Ji Yunxiu."

Xiyue looked at her lovingly with red eyes, as if she had made some kind of decision.

"He has been imprisoned for a long time. It won't matter if he is imprisoned for a while longer. But our chances to see the princess are very rare. If we miss this opportunity, we may have to wait for decades..."

The main reason why Xiyue and the other eight didn't want to wait any longer.

The princess is right in front of you. How sad it would be if you couldn't get her?

"Look, it's all because of you that I got into such trouble. Thank you so much."

She was already too tired to complain.

Sometimes she really wanted to see what was going on in her bestie's head.

"Oh no."

Song Xingyue suddenly thought of another very important thing.

"Aren't you mermaids not allowed to mate with orcs? Once you mate, you will lose your mermaid status, so... why are you still considering the issue of mating?"

"But the princess is not an orc."

Xiyue revealed the truth in one sentence.

"If we stay with the princess, not only will we not lose our mermaid status, but we will also have the freedom to breathe on land for a longer period of time."

"what?"

Song Xingyue couldn't believe what she heard and looked at Xiyue uncertainly.

"You mean, after mating with me, you can breathe longer?"

"Yes."

Seeing this, Xiyue gently took her hand.

"If we stay with the princess, we mermaids won't need to change the water often and can adapt to the environment on land."
