Transmigrating to the Qing Dynasty: The Beloved Princess Uses a System to Change the Plot

Upon hearing Mu Yue's words, the palace maid showed a hint of guilt on her face.

But she said aloud, "Your Highness has misunderstood!"

"I was just feeling a little unwell, so I sneaked out while I was on duty. I was afraid of being seen, so I hid in the corner."

The reason was plausible, but the palace maid looked too guilty, and Mu Yue didn't believe a word of it.

She didn't waste any more words with the palace maid and immediately signaled Chunju to arrange for someone to take the palace maid away with her.

After returning to Kunning Palace, Mu Yue was still confused about how she had been captured, so she summoned Chunju.

"Chunju, tell me what happened in the woods today!"

Chunju immediately began to reminisce.

As Mu Yue's personal maid, she naturally followed her mistress into the woods.

But after walking only a few steps, something felt off; there were fewer people around me.

Chunju knew that things were not peaceful in the palace.

He immediately realized that someone was sabotaging him behind the scenes.

Before she could warn Mu Yue, she felt something cover her mouth and she fainted.

When he woke up, the princess was nowhere to be seen.

He remained lying in the woods.

She immediately searched for Mu Yue, but only found a few servants who had just disappeared.

After everyone had been found, Mu Yue was nowhere to be seen.

Chunju suddenly panicked.

She originally intended to tell the Empress about this and have her arrange for a thorough investigation.

Then I overheard a conversation between two eunuchs.

One of the eunuchs revealed that they had just moved a box.

The palace maids who paid them to carry the boxes looked flustered, as if they had done something wrong.

Chunju decided to take a gamble!

She stopped the two eunuchs, asked for their location, and then hurriedly led her guards to find Mu Yue.

Mu Yue estimated the time; it was exactly shortly after she used the Luck buff.

Thanks to this buff, otherwise I would have been in real trouble.

"You did the right thing. I don't want the Empress Dowager to know about this. You know what to do, right?"

Chunju nodded immediately and asked, "Should I investigate the identities of the palace maids captured today?"

Mu Yue nodded naturally.

Not long after the sun set, Chunju figured out the identities of these palace maids.

She told Mu Yue about the situation.

“Your Highness, Hua Lan and Xiao Cao are palace maids in the Imperial Garden who are responsible for pruning the flowers, and Granny Chen is the nanny in charge of them.”

"The palace maid who was later discovered was from the courtyard of Chengqian Palace. She was responsible for sweeping and cleaning, and she and Hua Lan, who was responsible for pruning the flowers, were from the same hometown. According to the palace maids around them, they had a very good relationship."

Upon hearing that this matter involved Chengqian Palace, Mu Yue immediately frowned.

She decided to go and see Consort Tong.

At least it can be confirmed that this matter has nothing to do with Consort Tong.

But her good luck has ended, and she's now entering a period of bad luck.

I don't know how bad luck will appear, so to be on the safe side, it's best to stay in Kunning Palace.

Before Mu Yue could make any arrangements, the Empress rushed to her room.

"Yue'er, are you okay?"

Mu Yue stared blankly at the Empress and Kangxi following behind her.

Before he could react, the Empress scooped him up in her arms.

Mu Yue looked at the Empress with concern, "Mother, please put me down quickly, your health is not good..."

Before she could finish speaking, the Empress frowned and said, "Your Majesty is fine. What's wrong with you today?"

"I heard from Xiao Zhuozi, who serves you, that you've gone missing?"

"what happened?"

No sooner had the Empress finished speaking than Emperor Kangxi chimed in, "Yue'er, what exactly happened? Who dared to be so audacious?"

It seems the palace was not cleaned properly.

Someone actually dared to kidnap my most beloved daughter in broad daylight right in the palace.

Kangxi's face showed a mixture of anger and a hint of shame.

Mu Yue thought that Chunju and the others had not told the Empress about this matter, and was planning to solve it on her own.

Unexpectedly, the Empress and the others still found out.

Since that's the case, there's no need to continue hiding it.

So Mu Yue told the Empress and Emperor Kangxi what had happened that day.

After hearing this, Kangxi's guilt became even more apparent.

Even Mu Yue could see it clearly.

She didn't think much of it, only that her father felt guilty for not protecting her.

She smiled and reassured Emperor Kangxi and the Empress, "Father, Mother, don't worry about Yue'er. Yue'er is fine, isn't she?"

The Empress clearly did not heed these words.

For the next period of time, she felt a strong protective instinct towards Mu Yue.

Just these past few days, Mu Yue's bad luck has been quite strong due to her good luck buff.

Even drinking water causes him to choke.

The Empress was even more unwilling to let Mu Yue go out.

Even after the three days of bad luck had passed, the Empress still maintained a strong protective instinct and refused to let Mu Yue go out.

Left with no other choice, Mu Yue decided to seek help from the Crown Prince.

She looked at the Crown Prince pitifully, her round almond-shaped eyes glistening with tears, "Brother Baocheng, Yue'er doesn't want to stay in Kunning Palace all the time, it's too boring..."

"Can I take Yue'er to Brother Baocheng's Yuqing Palace?"

The Crown Prince felt a pang of sympathy seeing Mu Yue's pitiful appearance.

He immediately patted his chest and promised, "Brother Baocheng will go and tell Mother Empress right now. Yue'er will wait here obediently for Brother Baocheng!"

After saying that, before Mu Yue could react, the Crown Prince hurriedly went to find the Empress.

With the Crown Prince's help, Mu Yue's potential confinement period finally came to an end.

She followed the Crown Prince to Yuqing Palace.

Upon arriving at Yuqing Palace, I saw several ministers standing in the courtyard.

Mu Yue looked somewhat confused, but the Crown Prince was clearly used to it.

He bowed to the adults with the respect due to a junior, and then said to Mu Yue, "Brother Baocheng has class later, how about letting Cheng Hai accompany you?"

Cheng Hai was the Crown Prince's personal eunuch.

Everything concerning the Crown Prince was arranged by Cheng Hai.

Upon hearing the Crown Prince's order, Cheng Hai frowned, appearing extremely unwilling.

But the Crown Prince was standing in front of Cheng Hai with his back to him, and did not see his reluctance.

Mu Yue took in Cheng Hai's expression.

How dare a eunuch disobey Brother Bao Cheng and even show such an expression?

That's incredibly audacious!

If Bao Cheng's brother is surrounded by such hypocritical people, he will definitely be dragged down in the future.

I wonder who sent this person!

Mu Yue's gaze toward Cheng Hai held a hint of hostility.

“Brother Baocheng, Yue’er can manage on her own.”

The Crown Prince looked at Mu Yue with disapproval.

He frowned and said, "Brother Baocheng will worry about Yue'er."

Considering that someone was waiting for Bao Cheng, Mu Yue hesitated for a moment, but still accepted Cheng Hai's reluctant offer to take her to tour Yuqing Palace.
