Concubine Shu's movements were extremely rough, and the brown medicine flowed out from the corners of the emperor's mouth, spilling onto his neck and pillow...

The emperor felt extremely humiliated. At this moment, he forgot all his plans and looked at Concubine Shu with undisguised hatred in his eyes.

Bitch!

Bitch!

But soon, the emperor had no time to think about it... because the medicine given by Concubine Shu took effect, and he fell asleep directly.

Concubine Shu breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Xiao Ze, "Xiao Wu, don't listen to the dog emperor's nonsense."

"He doesn't understand you, but mother does." Concubine Shu took Xiao Ze's hand and said, "Mother is sure, you are mother's Xiaowu."

Shufei didn't even understand why the emperor would say such inexplicable words.

If Xiaowu is not Xiaowu, who else could it be?

ill!

"Yes." Xiao Wu nodded and smiled at the Concubine Shu, "I know, Mother."

Of course, he is my mother's little five.

He was just wondering, why would his father ask this for no reason?

Why do I feel that...he is not him?

If it wasn't him, who else could it be?

Xiao Wu thought about this and his eyes fell on the unconscious emperor...

……

After Xie Yao left the Yangxin Palace, she felt a little complicated.

Although Li Zhong had already said that the place where "Mr. Wen" was picked up might not be where "Mr. Wen" really was, Xie Yao still decided to go and see for herself.

Because she always felt that... the location Li Zhong reported seemed familiar.

But just as she was about to leave the palace, someone entered first, "Crown Princess, Miss Xuan requests an audience."

Xuanyue?

"Please." Xie Yao said immediately.

Xuan Yue came in quickly, his face full of anxiety. When he saw Xie Yao, he knelt down without saying a word.

Xie Yao was startled and hurried forward to help her, "Miss Xuan, if you have anything to say, please stand up and tell me. What happened?"

Could something have happened to the eldest princess?

Xuan Yue was helped up, her face pale. "Crown Princess, the eldest princess's condition has stabilized. I have been granted permission to go home today."

"When I returned home, I discovered...Xuan Shu was missing!"

"I questioned the servants on the spot and learned that she had quietly left home half a month ago. The meals sent to the mansion these days have been quietly handled by her personal maid..."

Xuan Yue's face was full of self-blame.

She only realized now that such a big thing happened. She was really not a competent eldest sister.

"I interrogated her personal maid, and she said... that Xuanshu also went to the northern border." Xuan Yue said this with a guilty conscience, because it was too obvious... Xuanshu went there because of the Marquis of Zhenbei and Miss Zhao...

"I would like to ask the Crown Princess if you could send a letter to the Northern Frontier. If Xuan Shu's whereabouts are discovered... have her imprisoned."

The northern border was already in chaos, so Xuan Yue naturally couldn't just ask someone to take care of it.

I'm afraid Pei Chen and others don't have time to take care of this matter.

But she was really afraid that something might happen to Xuanshu, so she went to Xie Yao for help. She wanted to lock Xuanshu up directly, which would also protect his safety.

"Okay." Xie Yao nodded, then looked at Xuan Yue and said, "What do you think?"

Xuan Yue's expression seemed to say that she would not sit idly by and wait for death.

Xuan Yue was stunned for a moment, then said, "Crown Princess, you are wise. I was just about to ask the Princess for mercy and rush to the northern border myself..."

Xie Yao guessed it.

Even she couldn't help but feel in her heart that Xuan Yue had really done his best for his sister Xuan Shu.

"This journey is difficult and dangerous, so you don't have to go in person." Xie Yao said, "It is the female generals under my aunt's command who are escorting Sister Ying to the northern border this time."

"Go to your aunt and ask for a handwritten letter. Send it to the northern border along with this letter from the Queen. If you can find Xuanshu, please ensure she is safe."

Xie Yao doesn't have a good impression of Xuan Shu, but she is willing to help for Xuan Yue's sake.

Xuan Yue was stunned for a moment, "But..."

"This will be faster." Xie Yao said, "By the time you personally arrive in the Northern Territory, it will take at least half a month."

"Even if you want to teach your sister a lesson, you can wait until she returns to Beijing."

"Let's go find my aunt first. The sooner the news is delivered, the sooner we can ensure Miss Xuan's safety."

"Yes." Xuan Yue bit her lip, and finally agreed and turned to leave.

The Crown Princess is right. It is more important to deliver the message first.

Because of Xuan Yue's matter, Xie Yao was no longer in a hurry to leave the palace. She turned around and went into the Yangxin Palace, told Xiao Ji about the matter first, and then began to write the letter.

After finishing the letter, Xie Yao put it away and said, "Your Highness, wait for news from your aunt to arrive, then send this letter to the northern border."

Xie Yao has said it twice.

Xiao Ji looked at Xie Yao with amusement and helplessness, "Yaoyao seems to be very concerned about Miss Xuan's affairs."

Xie Yao's eyebrows curved, and she blinked close to Xiao Ji, "Your Highness...are you jealous?"

Xiao Ji took advantage of the situation and put his arm around her waist, mumbling, "Are you jealous? What should I do?"

Xie Yao stood on tiptoe and pressed a kiss on his lips, "Are you satisfied, Your Highness? I don't have any..."

Before Xie Yao could finish her words, Xiao Ji swallowed them all.

Xiao Ji bit Xie Yao's lips as a punishment, with helplessness in his eyes when he looked at her.

This little girl...what nonsense is she talking about?

After a long kiss, Xie Yao's lips were a little red and swollen, and her watery eyes flickered as she looked at Xiao Ji.

Xiao Ji's Adam's apple rolled and he turned his eyes away slightly.

At this moment, Xie Yao is...very tempting to him!

Xie Yao could naturally sense this, so she coughed lightly and said, "Your Highness still has a lot of government affairs to deal with, so please go ahead and do your work."

"I have something to do and need to leave the palace."

She still had to go to the place Li Zhong mentioned in person.

"Okay." Xiao Ji nodded and reluctantly pulled Xie Yao's hand, "I know the Crown Princess is a busy person..."

Xie Yao glared at Xiao Ji, then pursed her lips and turned to walk out the door.

Xie Yao took a carriage and arrived at the place Li Zhong mentioned. She lifted the curtain and looked outside, her eyebrows slightly furrowed.

She got out of the carriage, turned around a few times, and a layer of frost covered her face.

No wonder she felt this place was familiar.

The house on the corner... belonged to Xiao Ning, and the secret passage led to...

"Go to the Song family."

Xie Yao quickly got on the carriage and gave instructions to Zhu Qing and Lin Xia.

"Yes." Zhu Qing and Lin Xia agreed.

The carriage headed towards the Song family...

Zhu Qing looked at Xie Yao's unpleasant expression and asked softly, "Crown Princess, is this place related to the Song family?"

"Go and take a look and you'll know." Xie Yao's voice was heavy.

At this moment, there was only one thought in her mind: No wonder he was called Mr. Wen.

There were always people guarding outside the Song family's house. When they saw the Crown Princess's carriage, they hurriedly saluted.

Zhu Qing asked: "How has the Song family been doing these days?"

The guard immediately said, "To answer the young lady, this place has always been very peaceful and tranquil."

"Open the door." Zhu Qing gave an order, and the guards immediately opened the tightly closed door of the Song family.

Xie Yao didn't go to look for him in person, but just sat in the yard.

The guards hurriedly searched the Song family residence, a group of people running around...

The Song family's house is not big, with only two courtyards and not many rooms, so it should be searched quickly.

But the guards searched for a long time, their steps becoming increasingly panicked and their speed increasing...

Finally, the leading guard's legs softened and he knelt directly in front of Xie Yao, "Princess, please forgive me, please forgive me!"

Song Wenbo is missing.

really.

A flash of understanding flashed through Xie Yao's mind: Mr. Wen is Song Wenbo.

"Useless!" Zhu Qing said angrily, "You can't even keep an eye on someone!"

The guards naturally begged for mercy again.

Song Wenbo was gone, but Song Li was still there. When she was called out by the guards, she started cursing in a sharp voice.

"Shut up." Xie Yao's voice was slightly cold, and she looked up at Song Li.

Her eyes were full of oppression. Song Li was a little frightened and shut up awkwardly.

Xie Yao gave Zhu Qing a look and said, "Go and take a look."

What she was talking about was naturally the secret passage in the house.

Zhu Qing responded and immediately turned around to check the situation.

Xie Yao's eyes fell on Song Lishi, "When did Song Wenbo run away?"

"What?" Song Li was stunned, looking at Xie Yao in shock and disbelief, "Wenbo ran away? Where did he go? No, it's impossible..."

As she spoke, Song Li's face was already filled with panic and anxiety.

She even hurriedly turned around to look for someone in the house, but was stopped by Lin Xia.

"The Crown Princess is asking you a question. When did Song Wenbo run away?"

The long sword in Lin Xia's hand shone with a cold light. Song Li was so frightened that her legs went weak and she fell to the ground.

Her eyes were dull and her expression was ugly. "He ran away? Really ran away? How could he run away? He...he, why didn't he take me with him? I'm his mother!"

Mrs. Song Li gnashed her teeth and slapped her thighs in anger, "I raised him all this time, and he treats me like this... What a scoundrel, what a scoundrel! What a scoundrel!"

Seeing that Song Li was about to curse again, Lin Xia said coldly, "Enough."

"The Crown Princess is asking you a question."

Lin Shuang's sword was pressed against Song Li's neck. The cold touch instantly silenced Song Li. Fear filled her face as she trembled as she said, "I, I don't know..."

But the next second, Song Li felt a pain in her neck.

It seemed that the long sword had cut her flesh, and Song Li even felt blood flowing from her neck.

"I, I really don't know..." Song Li burst into tears. She still felt extremely wronged. "I saw him yesterday, yesterday..."

"Yesterday, last night." Mrs. Song Li thought of something and said repeatedly, "I didn't see him this morning. He must have run away last night. Wuwuwu... This heartless bastard..."

He had this chance to escape, but he didn't take her with him and ran away quietly...

Zhu Qing came out of the room where Song Wenbo lived and whispered, "Crown Princess, the passage that was sealed off before is still sealed, but there is a new passage next to it."

"It seems that Song Wenbo escaped through that passage."

"What? What passage? How come I don't know it?" Song Li said, and wanted to run towards Song Wenbo's house.

But he was stopped as soon as he made a move.

Xie Yao looked at the guards who were still kneeling on the ground to apologize, "Such a loud commotion, didn't you hear anything at all?"

The Song family's house was so small, and they were guarding outside. Logically, they should have heard some noise...

The guards looked bitter and said, "Princess, please understand. Song Li always stands in the courtyard and curses people every morning and evening. I think the passage must have been opened while Song Li was cursing..."

Zhu Qing said, "Crown Princess, I'm afraid that passage cannot be opened by one person."

Xie Yao pursed her lips slightly, a cold light flashing in her eyes.

Song Wenbo couldn't contact the emperor until he left the Song family, which meant...

Someone helped Song Wenbo leave the Song family, and only then was Song Wenbo able to contact the emperor.
