"Dong dong dong…"
The windows were bright and clean. The sunlight shone through the window and sprinkled golden yellow on the ground.
Hurried footsteps tore apart the silence in the room.
"What happened?"
The Empress, who was dressed in a light blue brocade robe, raised her head and looked out of the hall with a frown. Which girl was so unruly to create such a huge commotion?
"Auntie, Yu 'er will go and take a look."
Ji Qingyu stood up as she spoke. Her white dress tugged at the ground, her black hair hung down her shoulders, and her earring hung down. She walked gracefully towards the door. She saw a palace maid in green running over. She recognized this palace maid. She was from her aunt's Kun Ning Palace.
"What happened? You're so flustered." Ji Qing Yu asked indifferently.
"Greetings, Princess." When the palace maid saw Ji Qingyu, she hurriedly bowed. Her delicate face was still covered in sweat, which showed how anxious she was.
"Yu 'er, let her in." The Empress also heard that it was her maid.
Ji Qingyu nodded and walked in with the palace maid.
"Greetings, Empress." The palace maid bowed to the Empress.
"Get up." The Empress waved her hand, her glazed eyes staring at her unhappily. "Dongxue, what happened to you? Why are you so flustered?”
"Empress, please calm down." Dong Mei curtsied and lowered her head. "This servant has something important to report to the Empress.”
The Empress and Ji Qingyu looked at each other. Looking at her solemn expression, what important matter was it?
"Go ahead." She wanted to hear what had happened in the palace.
" Yes, yes…" Dong Xue pursed her cherry lips." I just passed by the Eastern Palace and heard the servants there talking about the Crown Prince bringing a five or six-year-old child back to the palace, and…"
"And what? Tell me quickly." The person who urged her was the gentle Ji Qingyu. When she heard Dong Xue mention the little doll, she couldn't help but feel anxious. For some reason, that little girl always gave her a threatening feeling.
"He said that the Crown Prince wants to make that little girl his wife.”Dong Xue closed her eyes and said in one breath.
"What?" The Empress and Ji Qingyu were shocked and staggered.
"Ridiculous. Who is spreading rumors?" The Empress widened her eyes and looked at Dong Xue.
"Niangniang, it's already spreading in the palace.”Dong Xue lowered her head and replied. Although she also found it unbelievable.
Ji Qing Yu bit her lip. Recalling Leng Wan Wan's gaze, her heart thumped. She had a very bad feeling that perhaps it wasn't a rumor.
"Aunt, Crown Prince Biao Older Brother indeed brought a child back to the palace. And he was carrying that girl all the way. What's even stranger is that Yu 'er realized that the doll doesn't look like a child at all. Its eyes are even colder than an adult's…"
Ji Qingyu raised her head and looked at the Empress as she voiced out the doubts in her heart. Unease, very uneasy. Could it be that there was really such a ridiculous thing? Would cousin make a little child the crown prince consort?
When the Empress heard Ji Qingyu's words, she was also stunned. Her beautiful brows furrowed. Rather than guessing randomly here, it was better to go and take a look.
"Let's go to the Eastern Palace."
