Leng Qingzhou, who was resting far away at Bi Hai Peak, sneezed several times in a row and was very confused.

what happened? I got sick?

Originally, he knew that the eldest princess was looking for Xuanyuemen, but he was a little tired from the mission the day before, so he just returned to Bihai Peak to rest.

Chu Qianyu also sent a message in advance saying that this time he could just instruct others to do it, in short, it was just a show.

So he found a killer in black to go there.

After taking his pulse briefly, he frowned and whispered, "I'm not sick. Could it be that someone is talking about me?"

Thinking of this, he felt that it made sense. Maybe Yue'er wanted to see him. It seemed that he had to go to the Regent's Palace to see Yue'er some other day.

The eldest princess's mansion.

At noon the next day, people from Xuanyue Gate shot a piece of paper into the gate of the Princess's Mansion using an arrow target.

Upon seeing this, the servant quickly took it back to the mansion to find the eldest princess.

"Madame Lan, is the princess awake?"

"what happened?"

The servant handed over the target that had just been pulled out and said, "Someone just stuck this thing on the front gate."

Nanny Lan took a look at the fruit and said to the servant, "You can go down. I will tell the princess about this later."

After the servants left, Nanny Lan knocked on the door and said, "Princess, there is news."

"Come in." The princess opened her eyes immediately after hearing this, without any trace of sleepiness in them. She then sat up.

Nanny Lan took the paper off the target and handed it to the eldest princess.

The princess took it and quickly spread it out. There was only a simple sentence on it: "No one approached him."

After reading it, he frowned and wondered why Mo Yinan arrested him? Was it to avenge him for ruining his marriage?

But according to his style of doing things, it shouldn't be that simple.

What exactly is wrong?

I thought about it for a long time but couldn't figure it out.

The eldest princess shook her head and decided not to think about it anymore. The only thing she could do now was to rescue the people as soon as possible so that she could feel at ease.

"You go down first."

After Nanny Lan left, the princess looked at the note in her hand, thinking that since they could sneak in, they should be able to rescue the people.

So he called the secret guard over and said, "Can you contact the people from Xuanyue Sect and see if they can rescue the person as soon as possible?"

The secret guard bowed his head and replied, "Princess, to be honest, I have already asked about this matter when I went to find Xuanyue Sect yesterday. They said that their sect leader and the most powerful assassin are now on a mission. With their current capabilities, they can only investigate secretly without anyone noticing. As for bringing people out, it might alert the enemy."

"Have you asked them when they can come back?"

"Princess, I have asked and they said it will take about three to five days."

"Okay, you pay more attention to this matter, and when you come back, ask them to rescue the person for me."

In the Regent's Palace, Chu Qianyu was sitting on a swing outside the courtyard, swinging with her eyes closed, thinking about some details of entering the palace tomorrow.

At this time, Shuang Ning stepped forward and said, "Princess, there is news from the General's Mansion. It is said that the old lady intends to adopt the grandson brought by your aunt to you."

"What?" Chu Qianyu frowned. She didn't expect that her grandmother would cause trouble one after another.

"What would father say? He would definitely disagree."

"The master was reluctant, but also a little embarrassed. He said that after all, my aunt's grandson would not be too close to our family. But I didn't expect that the old lady would have a trick up her sleeve. In the end, she gave in and said that if that was the case, then your aunt's son would always be fine. Besides, her youngest son is only ten years old now, so he is easy to educate."

"What did mother say?"

"The Madam is unwilling, but the Master can't persuade the Madam. So he said to pick her up first. She should be here around noon the day after tomorrow."

"Well, I'll go back the day after tomorrow. And have Zhao Jing and my aunt been causing any trouble recently?"

Shuang Ning thought about it carefully and said, "It didn't come to Madam's attention. Madam's courtyard is still as quiet as before."

"But Madam Zhao has been looking for the old lady these past two days. The old lady may feel a little irritated. So she didn't see her. She asked the servants to take her around the courtyard or to the streets. But Mr. Zhao is a little indulgent. He goes to brothels and gambling houses all the time. He also owes all the accounts to the general's mansion."

Chu Qianyu's eyes flashed with disdain after hearing this. It seems that this person is really not that good. If the old lady knew about this, she would probably regret inviting this person here.

It seems that I have to teach the old lady a lesson this time, otherwise she will always want to interfere in my father and mother's affairs.

"Go check how much property the old lady has. Then have Zhao Jing block it. When I go to the mansion the day after tomorrow, have the boss of the gambling house go to collect the debt."

"As for the child that the old lady found, let's get in touch with him in advance..."

Chu Qianyu made some arrangements before resting.

However, it didn't last long before Shao Ying came over and said that Zhao Qing in the backyard had begun begging for mercy.

Chu Qianyu snorted coldly and said, "It's only been a few days and you're already begging for mercy. Your endurance must be a little low. But I don't want to go over now. Let's talk about it after I finish my work tomorrow. You can give me a small amount of food."

"Yes, Princess. I understand. I will tell someone to do it right away."

Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye it was the seventh day after the Empress Dowager's death.

Chu Qianyu got up early in the morning and packed up after practicing. Mo Yinan had not come to see Chu Qianyu in the past few days.

Every morning she went alone to pay her respects to the old princess.

I went to pay my respects as usual today, but I didn't expect to run into Mo Yinan not far away.

Thinking of what happened that night, Chu Qianyu slowed down her pace, still feeling a little embarrassed. It felt like it happened just yesterday. She originally thought it was in the past and she had forgotten it.

Mo Yinan noticed that something was wrong with her and asked, "What's wrong with you? Why are you walking so slowly? We have other things to do today. So I'll go with you to pay my respects to mother. Then we'll go to the palace together."

"Okay, I got it." Chu Qianyu said in a low voice with his head slightly lowered.

Hey, why is she feeling guilty?

Thinking of this, I suddenly gained some confidence and raised my head to look straight ahead. Since he acted as if nothing had happened, I guess he didn't take it to heart.

Mo Yinan didn't want to go to Luoyanju these past two days, but he was afraid that she would embarrass him again like last time. But he was still a little conflicted about whether to ask Leng Qingzhou whether he came or not.

After thinking it over again and again, he asked casually, "How is the situation at Xuanyue Sect? Has Leng Qingzhou come to the palace in the past two days?"

"Everything is normal. Qingzhou has been resting for the past two days and has not come to the palace. Why do you suddenly think of asking this?"

Chu Qianyu looked at him puzzledly and saw that his expression looked a little unnatural.

Suddenly I seemed to understand something.

It seems that the book is still useful. He looked a little jealous. It seemed that although he said he didn't like me, he still somewhat minded my contact with the man next to me.

Just as she was thinking deeply, she heard Mo Yinan's cold voice: "Nothing, I'm just asking. And now you are my princess. You still need to be more careful in front of outsiders."

Chu Qianyu took a step forward, took his arm, raised her head and chuckled, "How? Your Highness, can you tell me in detail?"
