The weak prince's queen

Chu Xiyue and the others arrived at the agreed location early. Time passed, but Dong'er and Yun Zhuo still did not show up.

Chu Xiyue stood there, her heart in her throat. She clasped her hands together tightly, rubbing them constantly until her palms were slightly sweaty. She wondered if she had mistrusted Yun Zhuo. After all, this operation was of grave importance; if anything went wrong, the consequences would be disastrous. This thought made her increasingly uneasy, and she kept glancing in the direction Dong'er and the others had left, hoping to see a familiar figure soon.

Mo Feng on the side had obviously lost his patience. He paced back and forth and finally couldn't help but said, "We've been waiting for so long, why don't I go over there and take a look at the situation!" Before he finished speaking, he raised his foot and prepared to leave.

Just at this moment, Chu Xiyue was watching Mo Feng's actions, when suddenly a shout came from a distance: "Miss...Miss..." The voice came from far away, with a little anxiety.

Chu Xiyue turned her head sharply at the sound and saw Dong'er and Yun Zhuo running towards them not far away. The sunlight fell on them, illuminating their hurried figures.

Chu Xiyue's tense face instantly broke into a delighted smile, her beautiful eyes sparkling like stars in the night sky. She excitedly waved her arms and shouted, "Here! We are here!"

Yun Zhuo and Dong'er quickened their pace and soon arrived in front of everyone.

Yun Zhuo didn't even have time to catch his breath. He quickly clasped his fists and saluted, reporting with a serious expression, "Your Majesty, Princess, I've just heard some news, but I'm afraid it's not very good..."

Xiao Yichen frowned slightly and asked in a deep voice, "What exactly is going on?"

Yun Zhuo replied solemnly, "Your Highness, something's happened to the Princess's father, Minister Lin! For some reason, he's been arrested, and there's even news that he'll be executed in three days!"

Hearing this, Xiao Yichen's heart trembled, and his gaze turned to Chu Xiyue beside him.

At this time, Dong'er also had a worried look on her face, staring at Chu Xiyue intently, as if waiting for her decision.

Chu Xiyue bit her lip lightly, her face showing hesitation, and murmured to herself: "This... Dong'er, should I go and save her?"

Dong'er was naturally well aware of the complicated relationship between Chu Xiyue and Lin Ruoxue, but it was inconvenient to bring it up in front of everyone. So, after a moment's thought, she gently took Chu Xiyue's hand and led her to a relatively secluded corner.

After the two of them stood still, Dong'er lowered her voice and said carefully, "Sister Yue, although Mr. Lin has no close connection with you, based on my understanding of my young lady, if there is a way to save Mr. Lin, she might be willing to help. After all, blood is thicker than water."

Chu Xiyue nodded slightly, expressing her understanding, and responded, "Alright, even though he's a terrible father, for the sake of your young lady, let's think of a way to save her."

Hearing Chu Xiyue's ready agreement, Dong'er's face, which had been slightly nervous and worried, instantly blossomed like a spring flower, her joy overflowing with words. She quickly stepped forward, bowed deeply, and said with tears of gratitude, "That's great! Dong'er would like to thank Sister Yue on behalf of my young lady!"

Chu Xiyue smiled slightly, reached out and gently took Dong'er's hand, and said softly: "Sister, there is no need to be polite, get up quickly. Since you have agreed to this matter, you should do your best." After that, she took Dong'er's hand and slowly turned around and walked towards where everyone was.

Coming in front of everyone, Chu Xiyue raised her beautiful eyes, looked at Xiao Yichen, and said with her red lips: "Prince. The situation is urgent now. We need to find a way to save my father as soon as possible." Her words were full of anxiety and concern.

Xiao Yichen nodded slightly in agreement and said solemnly, "Alright, without further ado, let's discuss a countermeasure." He pulled out a parchment scroll from his pocket and carefully spread it out on the ground. The scroll depicted the city's intricate layout of streets and buildings, clearly a detailed road map.

Everyone gathered around, leaning over to gaze at the route map. For a moment, the atmosphere was solemn and silent. Everyone knew that this rescue mission was extremely difficult, but no one showed any fear.

After a brief silence, Chu Xiyue was the first to break the deadlock, pointing to a spot on the map and saying, "In my opinion, this is where the enemy's defense is the weakest. We may be able to break through from here."

Xiao Yichen looked in the direction of her finger, thought for a moment, and nodded. "Hmm, that makes some sense. While this place may seem easy to break through, it may also hold hidden secrets. We shouldn't take it lightly." He then pointed to another spot and analyzed, "The terrain here is complex, making it easy to conceal our whereabouts. It's a good rendezvous point..."

In this way, everyone talked one after another, expressing their own opinions and constantly improving the rescue plan. Time passed by minute by minute, and before they knew it, a long time had passed.

Finally, after much deliberation and discussion, a comprehensive rescue plan emerged. Chu Xiyue looked around and saw that no one objected. She decisively declared, "Alright, it's settled. For the next three days, everyone must rest and recuperate, waiting for the right moment to rescue our father!"
