Xia Chan looked at Gu Beichen's departing back and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. The mission was completed and she could finally go back and report to the princess.

It seems that Prince Qin really cares about Miss Shen. I have to go back quickly and tell the princess to stop worrying about it. With Prince Qin around, how could Miss Shen be in trouble?

Xia Chan was thinking about something when he suddenly found that someone was grabbing his collar again. He flew into the air and soon disappeared into the night.

"you you……"

"Shut up!"

Xuan Bin was very depressed. As one of the four leaders around the God of War Prince of Nan Yao Kingdom, he was ranked first in strength, but he had fallen to the point where he had to escort a little maid personally.

What about his lifelong reputation? Won’t the other three people laugh at him to death in the future?

Although he was depressed, he had to obey his master's orders and send the person back as soon as possible, and then go to Changchun Palace to wait for orders.

Although he had never seen with his own eyes how well his master treated Miss Shen, he had heard from his brothers more than once that Miss Shen was more important to his master than his own life. If something happened to her, not to mention the Qin Palace, the entire Nan Yao Kingdom would probably collapse.

Feiying, Canglang and others told Xuan Bin that Shen Wanwan had real kung fu skills, but Xuan Bin had never seen it himself and was somewhat skeptical.

As a woman, how capable can she be?

There are few women in the world who are as strong and capable as Ling Shuang, and no one can possess both martial arts and medical skills like Fei Yue.

The palace is a cage that eats people without leaving any bones. Even if Miss Shen has some self-defense skills, it is easy to dodge an open attack but difficult to guard against an arrow from the dark. He has to rush over to help as soon as possible.

If I guessed correctly, the next task that the master would give him should be to protect Miss Shen's safety.

Since she is the apple of his master's eye, he naturally has to protect her and prevent her from getting into trouble in the palace.

As long as Miss Shen is fine, the master will be happy, and if the master is happy, he will reward her with money. If I don't work harder, I will be surpassed by Canglang.

Xuan Bin had his own plans in mind and quickly sent Xia Chan to Fengyi Palace.

At this moment, Gu Feiyan walked into Zhao Ziyi's bedroom angrily and slapped her in the face without saying a word.

"Snapped!"

A crisp slap was heard, and four clear finger marks instantly appeared on one side of Zhao Ziyi's cheek.

"Mother?"

Zhao Ziyi was stunned, tears welling in her eyes. She looked at Gu Feiyan in disbelief, "Why?"

As far as she can remember, although her mother was strict with her, she never hit her.

"You still have the nerve to ask me why?"

Zhao Ziyi shuddered inwardly and pursed her lips, "My daughter doesn't know, please tell me, mother."

This was the second time her mother was so angry. She called herself "this palace" in front of her. The last time was last night in the Cining Palace. She told her that something had happened to her cousin, Prince Qin, and her mother scolded her harshly.

But she didn't understand why her mother's emotions were so out of control?

Why didn't she let herself tell the Imperial Grandmother that her cousin, the Prince of Qin, was in a coma? If she was really worried about the Imperial Grandmother's health, shouldn't she tell her and arrange for the imperial physician to treat her as soon as possible?

"When you grow up, you feel like you have grown stronger, right?"

"Mother, why do you say that? What did your daughter do wrong? Please tell me clearly."

"What did you promise me before entering the palace yesterday? And what did you promise me today when I told you to stay in Fengyi Palace and not go anywhere else?"

"But mother also said that after entering the palace, she would personally tell the emperor about my cousin. Did mother tell her?"

Gu Feiyan slapped Zhao Ziyi again, "It's not your turn to question what I do!"

Zhao Ziyi covered her face with her hands and looked at Gu Feiyan in astonishment, tears falling down her face.

"I'm asking you, have you been to the Cining Palace this morning?"

Zhao Ziyi's eyes flickered, she pursed her lips tightly, and did not reply.

Gu Feiyan looked at Zhao Ziyi's aggrieved look, and her heart softened. She sighed heavily, reached out and took Zhao Ziyi's hand, pulling her into her arms.

"Yier, no matter what mother did, it was all for your own good. Don't go against her."

Gu Feiyan patted Zhao Ziyi's back gently with her hand, "Yier, just remember, no one in this world can compare to your position in your mother's heart."

"Mother, wuwu... Yier thought you didn't love her anymore. Yier thought she was going to be abandoned by you..."

"Silly child, you are the child that your mother carried for ten months and gave birth to. How could your mother not love you?"

"But mother was so fierce just now, and Yi'er's face hurts so much."

"This is all my fault. It's my fault. I lost my composure in a fit of rage. Can you please forgive me, Yi'er?"

Zhao Ziyi sniffed, "Then mother, can you promise Yi'er one thing? As long as you agree, Yi'er will forgive mother."

"Tell me, Yi'er. As long as I can do it, I will definitely agree to it."

"Really?"

Zhao Ziyi burst into laughter and said, "Then let's make a pinky promise."

As she spoke, she reached out to make a pinky promise with Gu Feiyan.

Gu Feiyan shook her head and said unhappily, "Okay, okay, I'll do whatever you say. You're still so childish."

Her Yi'er is too simple. With her personality, what will she do if she is gone one day?

"My mother made me naive."

"Let's make a promise, nothing will change for a hundred years. Anyone who changes will be a big fool."

"Okay, you can tell me now, what does Yi'er want her mother to promise you?"

Zhao Ziyi blinked, "Mother, can you find a way to send Sister Wan out of the palace now?"

Xia Chan hasn't returned yet, and I don't know whether she has met her cousin King Qin. If we delay any further, it will be too late for Gu Manqing to take action.

Gu Feiyan's expression changed immediately when she heard this. "Did you really go to the Cining Palace this morning?"

Zhao Ziyi's eyes flickered. "Mother, just tell me whether you agree or not."

"How much did you hear?"

Gu Feiyan ignored Zhao Ziyi's coquettishness and spoke in a cold tone.

"From now on, you are not allowed to step out of the bedroom again. Tomorrow morning, you will leave the palace and return to the princess's residence. You are not allowed to leave the yard without my permission!"

After Gu Feiyan finished speaking, she flicked her sleeves, turned around and walked out.

"Mother!"

Looking at Gu Feiyan's departing back, tears welled up in Zhao Ziyi's eyes again.

Outside the window, Xuan Bin released the hand that was restraining Xia Chan. "Go tell your princess that the prince has gone to find Miss Shen. Tell her not to worry."

After he finished speaking, he turned and disappeared into the night.
