Female-to-male: I live on farming

It’s not that Li Nanqiao hasn’t seen beauties before. In her eyes, Lord Lu, Patriarch Gu, and the eldest princess are all outstanding women in the world.

At that time, she was just a peasant girl from Qinghe Village who had a narrow-minded view of the world. When she first met Lu Youqing, she thought that the fairies in the sky were no more than her.

But Lord Lu has cold eyes and an icy face, which makes people feel distant at first sight.

The beauty of the head of the Gu family is gentle, quiet, dignified and beautiful; the eldest princess gives people the feeling of being graceful and luxurious, and the most common thing about her is her decisive and sharpness, which makes people unable to look directly at her.

The woman in front of me is full of charm in every move, and a glance at her eyebrows can capture anyone's heart.

Li Nanqiao avoided her seductive gaze, lowered his eyelids slightly, and his gaze fell on her slender fingers. When the other party took the plate, he touched her fingertips imperceptibly.

"Thank you, little commander."

The person opposite her was completely unaware of her strange behavior and took the plate calmly. When she turned around, her loose black hair was blown by the night breeze.

Li Nanqiao's nose was filled with her elegant fragrance.

The sound of my heartbeat was like waves of intense drumbeats beating in my ears, and my hands unconsciously clenched into fists, trying to use this method to control the hot feeling that was constantly rising in my heart.

"I...I'm leaving first."

She didn't understand why she was like this, and she couldn't face this situation. The only thing she could do was to flee the scene. She could only turn around and leave in a hurry, her steps as flustered as a frightened deer.

Only after washing his face twice with clean water did Li Nanqiao feel the heat on his face subside, and his mind calmed down and he began to think about the problem.

She finally understood why the princess had chosen her to carry out this mission. She had many more suitable choices, but she was chosen to come when she had never been to the capital.

She had her doubts, and thought that His Highness was training her on purpose, which was the most reasonable explanation she could think of. It was not until she saw Li Weirou's true face that she suddenly realized.

Such a face, such a beauty, if she were to be chosen from ordinary soldiers. Even if the princess was strict in her military discipline, there was still no guarantee that men would not have any thoughts when they met such a woman.

Even she was still distracted when she saw Li Weirou, let alone those hot-blooded men.

The possibility of this happening may be very low, but the princess still has to make sure everything is foolproof.

Unfortunately, Li Nanqiao didn’t know at that time that an ordinary woman would not lose her mind even if she met a beautiful woman.

……

Inside the palace on the other side.

After a night of diagnosis and treatment, Emperor Mingde's health finally returned to normal. The imperial doctors stayed up all night, trembling with fear, fearing that Emperor Mingde would suddenly pass away.

Zhao Yu and Concubine Yue also stayed awake all night and stayed in the emperor's bedroom. They heard the imperial physician report that the emperor's condition had stabilized.

Concubine Yue rubbed her forehead. She had been tense all night and when she suddenly relaxed, she felt a slight pain in her head.

"Mother, do you have a headache? Would you like to ask the imperial physician to take a look at you?"

Concubine Yue waved her hand and leaned back on the chaise longue while the maid behind her gently rubbed her temples. She said, "No need to worry about these old problems. The concubines in the harem will come to the palace to pay their respects later."

Ever since the former crown prince was deposed and the queen and the former crown prince lost in the factional struggle, the queen, the master of the central palace, has become a figurehead in the harem, and Concubine Yue has taken over the leadership of the harem.

There was such a loud commotion last night, it was impossible that the people in the harem didn't hear anything at all, so she had to come out and calm them down.

"Why is Concubine Rou still not here?"

Just as Concubine Yue had expected, the concubines in the harem were in a panic. With a stern face, she briefly explained the emperor's illness in a few words and asked everyone not to make random guesses, which made the people in the harem uneasy.

However, all the concubines in the harem arrived early, but there was no sign of Concubine Rou.

Since His Majesty became seriously ill, Concubine Rou has been staying at home and rarely goes out unless there is something important. But for such a visit, even if she is not present, she will send a maid to ask for leave.

This time, not even a maid was sent.

"Go and take a look. Doesn't she even want to follow the rules now?" Concubine Yue winked at the eunuch in charge behind her.

She was already feeling unwell, and seeing Concubine Rou causing more trouble for her, her face became even gloomier. Anyone could see that she was on the verge of getting angry, and no one dared to offend her.

There was a moment of complete silence in the palace.

Until the eunuch in charge she sent out came back in a hurry, with an obviously strange expression on his face. After he came in, he leaned close to Concubine Yue's ear and whispered a few words.

The other concubines saw her with expressions of disbelief and shock after hearing the eunuch's report.

The maid closest to her heard her lower her voice to confirm: "Are you sure? Have you searched the entire palace?"

"Your Highness, I searched the entire palace but could not find Concubine Rou. The maids who served her said that she had sent them back to rest early last night and did not leave anyone to serve her. When they went to serve her this morning, they found that Concubine Rou was missing."

"Go and find her for me! You have to search the entire palace to find her!" Concubine Yue was so angry that she slammed the table and stood up.

Zhao Yu heard about the grand search and went straight to Concubine Yue's bedroom after leaving court.

"Mother, what exactly happened?" Zhao Yu strode into the bedroom, his tone filled with anxiety.

"That Li Weirou disappeared from the palace last night."

Concubine Yue's face looked very ugly at this moment, with her eyes half-closed.

"Last night?" Zhao Yu's pupils couldn't help but shrink, his face looked hideous and somewhat scary.

But he was finally able to keep a low profile and defeat the Crown Prince Zhao Yu, and he instantly thought of his father's sudden symptoms last night.

"I have checked and found that she went to His Majesty's bedroom yesterday."

Concubine Yue searched the palace for a whole day but found no trace of Li Weirou, so she immediately went to the palace gate to ask if anyone had taken advantage of the chaos to leave the palace.

"So, everything that happened last night was her fault?" Zhao Yu also sat next to her with a frown on his face.

"I have really underestimated her over the years. She is so low-key, yet she actually has this ability."

Zhao Yu felt that the matter was not that simple, and asked: "Mother, can you find out who is behind her? She has never revealed her true identity in these years, why would she suddenly risk leaving the palace now?"

"I have found some people and am interrogating them, but they are keeping their mouths shut."

Zhao Yu stood up again, feeling uneasy: "She must have a purpose for escaping the palace at this time. No matter who is behind her, she must not succeed!"

"Then Yu'er wants to..."

"From today on, the capital is under martial law. She must not be allowed to escape from the city!"

Concubine Yue's eyebrows jumped, and she asked in disbelief, "Do you suspect she is from Jinyang?"
