The study room of Prince Zhan's Mansion.

Xiao Lijing listened to his subordinates' reports with a gloomy face.

He had sent people to turn the entire capital upside down, but still found no clues.

"Your Highness, could the Princess be out of town? Should we send someone out to look for her?"

"Yes, the princess is extremely intelligent, nothing will happen to her!"

Xiao Lijing was not reassured by what Jingzhe and others said.

His eyes were dark and his face was gloomy. He looked towards the capital and said, "There's still one place we haven't searched!"

That is the imperial palace.

Jingzhe was horrified, "Are you worried about..."

"Enter the palace!"

Xiao Lijing's eyes were cold and his voice was indifferent.

Half an hour.

Cining Palace.

As Xiao Lijing stepped in, he heard laughter coming from inside.

When I looked up, I saw Ming Wan'er accompanying the Empress Dowager. The atmosphere between the two of them was warm, like a real grandparents and grandchildren.

She just gave birth and she's already trying to please the Queen Mother...

He clasped his hands together and said, "Greetings to the Queen Mother!"

The Queen Mother was so happy to see Xiao Lijing coming that she couldn't stop smiling. "Didn't you come to say that the princess was not feeling well?"

Xiao Lijing looked up with a burning gaze, observing carefully.

After confirming that there was no unusual expression on the Empress Dowager's face, he frowned.

He said, "I'm not feeling well, so I came to the palace to apologize!"

"It's just a small matter! Don't worry about it! It won't be too late to enter the palace after the princess recovers!"

"I'll remember this!"

Xiao Lijing was about to say something when suddenly a nanny came in and whispered something in the Empress Dowager's ear.

Xiao Lijing is a martial artist with sharp ears and eyes.

Although the nanny's voice was low, he could still hear the general idea.

The Empress Dowager's expression changed. "It's been a while since you two childhood sweethearts last met. Chat more. I'm going to the Queen's Palace and will be back soon!"

The Empress Dowager said this and turned away in a hurry.

Xiao Lijing's words of farewell came to his lips, but he swallowed them back.

He found a seat and sat down, his eyes deep, with no intention of chatting at all.

Ming Wan'er, who was standing beside him, had tears in her eyes and slowly approached, "Brother Zhan Wang, we haven't seen each other for a long time. Don't you have anything to say to me?"

She had just given birth, her face was pale, and tears were slowly sliding down her cheeks like beads falling off a string.

Xiao Lijing glanced at him with an indifferent look, "Men and women should not touch each other!"

"But……"

Xiao Lijing is never polite to any woman.

But what about my own man?

Thinking about the fact that the prince of the island kingdom took in another maid early this morning...

Obviously not.

Just want to torture people.

Ming Wan'er was so angry that her face turned gloomy. Looking at Xiao Lijing's strong arms, she staggered and fell straight towards Xiao Lijing.

"master!"

The maidservant beside saw this and was horrified.

Just when everyone thought Ming Wan'er would fall into Xiao Lijing's arms.

The situation suddenly changed. Xiao Lijing tapped his toes, jumped up and dodged directly.

Ming Wan'er fell magnificently onto the chair with a loud noise.

"what!"

These tables are all made of golden nanmu wood.

I fell on it and my whole body was in pain.

Ming Wan'er bit her lower lip, feeling extremely ashamed.

She looked at Xiao Lijing with tears in her eyes, "Brother Zhan Wang, are you really not sentimental at all? If you can accept me, I will help you conquer the island country!"

As a general fighting on the battlefield, the greatest wish is to expand the territory.

She believed that Xiao Lijing would never refuse such a great honor.

Under her expectant gaze, Xiao Lijing just glanced at her indifferently, "Who do you think you are?"

"Brother Zhan Wang, why are you doing this!" Ming Wan'er's tears fell silently, and she looked pitiful. "I really will help you. By then, you will be the greatest hero in the world. I will take our daughter with me, and we will live a good life as a family of three... Knowing that you can't have children, I will let our daughter become the heir to the Zhan Wang Mansion, and then we can find a son-in-law..."

The woman chattered on and on.

The more I talk, the more annoying I become.

Xiao Lijing was about to lose his patience, his expression indifferent, "Did you hear anything in the palace?"

Ming Wan'er was stunned, then turned her eyes and said, "I really am doing this for your own good. His Majesty has been ill these past few days. From now on, no matter what happens in the palace, I will tell you!"

sick?

Real illness or fake illness?

Or is it to cover up the truth?

Xiao Lijing's heart sank to the bottom and he glanced at the person beside him.

The nanny beside her had been in the palace for many years, and their eyes met in the air.

Instantly, he knew what Ming Wan'er said was true. "Don't tell anyone about this, or you will be killed!"

"it is good!"

Ming Wan'er's eyes were filled with tears, but she smiled. "I promise to be your spy in the palace from now on, and I'll tell you everything!"

No brains at all.

Say anything in public.

Fortunately, there were not many people in the Empress Dowager's palace, and they were all her own people.

He looked at Ming Wan'er with disdain. "Those who do evil will eventually perish. You chose these paths yourself! Take care of yourself!"

After giving a warning, he turned and left.

Ming Wan'er looked at his ruthless back, her face full of resentment, "Why? Why are they all here to lecture me? I'm obviously the one who's been wronged the most!"
