Qi Qi looked around and saw that there was no danger. Her complexion improved. The cold wind whistled through her clothes and drilled into her body. The chill that seeped into her bones made her shiver. Facing this endless desert, Yingluo Qiqi felt helpless. How could she get out? And what exactly was there for her to decipher?
She hugged her trembling body, and her lips became more and more purple. Yingluo Qiqi lowered her eyes and looked at her fingernails, which had turned black. Then she raised her hand to her mouth and kept breathing.
Looking at the starry sky, Yingluo Qiqi felt a little lost. She had no direction to go in, no goal! Did she have to spend her days in this endless desert? This was something she would never believe. Perhaps the people who came in here were all dead, but she would not be one of them. She promised!
Her determined eyes were filled with fearlessness. Even if she was in a difficult situation now, she would never retreat.
However, she had to find food now. But in this desolate area, where could she find food?
At the thought of this, she ignored her trembling body and struggled to stand up straight. Dragging her exhausted body, she staggered and walked. Her feet stepped on the sand, leaving footprints one after another that extended very long...
Fengli Imperial Palace
It was another sunny morning. However, the noisy palace was no longer as peaceful as before without the birds playing freely on the treetops. The well-trained guards were searching everywhere, and the atmosphere was tense.
In the courtyard of the imperial palace, it was the courtyard where Yingluo Qiqi and Hua Juechen lived together. At this time, Ting Lan Ting Yu had already stopped helping to search for clues. Instead, she followed Yingluo Qiqi's instructions and stayed in Hua Juechen's room until he woke up.
Although Hua Juechen had only applied the medicine for a little more than a day, the wounds on his body had already scabbed over. Of course, the two of them could not see Hua Juechen's body. This was what Wangliang told them. They had to admit that the healing medicine was extraordinary. If it was an ordinary medicine, it would take a long time for the wound to scab. They wondered where the medicine came from. They had never heard of such a miraculous medicine in this world. Even the Aoqian Kingdom did not have it!
"Tinglan, open the window!”Ting Lan glanced at the tightly shut window with silk flower patterns, then glanced at Hua Juechen, whose expression had already returned to normal, before speaking to Ting Lan with a calm mood.
Ting Lan nodded and stood up from the stool. She then took a few light steps forward and gently pushed open the window. Sunlight quickly poured in, causing the entire room to become much brighter!
Ting Yu had been paying close attention to Hua Juechen to see if he made any movements. Just as the sun shone in, she clearly saw Hua Juechen's index finger move slightly! Ting Yu looked at Hua Juechen's face in surprise, hoping that the next thing she saw was Hua Juechen opening his eyes!
At this moment, Ting Lan also noticed Ting Yu's surprised expression. When she saw her gaze on Hua Juechen's face, she immediately understood. She immediately turned around and stared at Hua Juechen without blinking!
Hua Juechen was lying quietly on the bed. A piece of brocade embroidered with lotus patterns covered Hua Juechen's body, revealing only his peerlessly beautiful head. His head of ink-like bright hair was pressed down his back, with only a few strands casually scattered beside the pillow. From Tinglan and Tingyu's angle, her beauty was simply indescribable. Fortunately, Tinglan and Tingyu were not very interested in these things, so they did not play any tricks. Then things were a little complicated.
Hua Juechen's god-like face changed slightly. To outsiders, it looked as if his heart was filled with extreme grief and indignation!
When Ting Lan and Ting Yu noticed this scene, both of them were shocked. They couldn't help but look at each other, as if they were communicating something.
Ting Lan's personality was lively. At such a critical moment, how could she be quiet? However, due to the situation, she could only speak anxiously but did not make a sound."Tingyu, what's going on? Did something happen?"
"Don't think too much. Miss asked us to take care of Third Prince, so we should take good care of him. Now that Miss isn't here, we should be even more careful!”Ting Yu looked at the anxious Ting Lan and held her hand, comforting her quietly,"Let's see!"
After Ting Lan heard Ting Yu's words, she shook her head in annoyance. It was obvious that something had happened to Hua Juechen. Could it be that she still had to consider other things and not call the imperial physician? Thinking of this, she wanted to stomp her feet to vent her anxiety, but this scene was noticed by the sharp-eyed Ting Yu and she stopped her.
Ting Lan looked resentfully at Ting Yu, then unwillingly sat back down on the stool and quietly looked at Hua Juechen!
At this moment, Hua Juechen did not know what had happened, but his originally tightly furrowed brows relaxed again. The corners of his mouth broke into a smile, but that smile was filled with bitterness!
Ting Lan frowned worriedly and looked at the quiet Ting Yu with uncertainty. Feeling Ting Lan's gaze, Ting Yu turned around and looked at the worried Ting Lan. She smiled at her and patted her frail shoulders, saying silently,"You have to believe in Miss. Don't worry, it will be fine!”
The moment Ting Lan heard the words "trust Miss", the anxiety on her face immediately faded, and her smile became much more natural.
Ting Yu watched from the side and laughed along with her happily. Ting Lan was an innocent girl, and the young miss was like the sky in her innocent time! Just as the two of them were not paying attention, Hua Juanchen's long eyelashes fluttered a few times before he slowly opened his eyes, as if he was not used to such a dazzling light! His pair of glass-like purple eyes flashed with a cold light without anyone noticing. At the same time, he was puzzled. What was the grief and indignation that lingered in his heart?
Ting Yu, who was still talking to Ting Lan, glanced at the Third Prince who had already woken up. She immediately stood up from the stool and asked,"Third Prince, you're awake. Are you feeling unwell anywhere?”
When Ting Lan heard Ting Yu's stunned expression, she immediately reacted. With a face full of pleasant surprise, she turned to look at Hua Juechen and sighed,"That's great!"
Hua Juechen lay on the bed and listened to their conversation. He smiled warmly at them.
Because of Hua Juechen's smile, Ting Lan and Ting Yu instantly felt embarrassed. Ting Lan's face was red as she said embarrassedly,""Third Prince, I, Ting Lan, and Ting Yu are here to take care of the Third Prince under the orders of Miss!”
Hua Juechen nodded. That docile appearance was like a pet cat at home.
Hua Juechen stretched out a hand with well-defined joints from under the blanket and gently lifted the brocade blanket on his body. Then, a purple brocade robe was revealed. He looked at the two servant girls beside Qi Qi who felt uncomfortable because of him and could not help but feel a little uncomfortable in his heart. Hence, he deliberately changed the topic and said,"Where did your Miss go?"
Immediately, Ting Lan and Ting Yu's faces turned pale. Their lips parted slightly weakly, and their expressions were somewhat sorrowful.
Hua Juechen looked at the two people's reactions and his heart stopped. He ignored the wounds on his body that had yet to fully heal and immediately rolled down from the bed. Then, he asked,"What happened to Qiqi?"
The expressions of the two of them were somewhat unsightly, especially Ting Lan. This couldn't help but make Hua Juechen very puzzled. Could it be that something major had happened?
"Miss disappeared at noon yesterday. The emperor sent all the Jinyiwei in the palace to investigate the clues, but it has been so long and they still haven't found a trace!”
Outside the window, the scorching sun was blocked by the thick clouds. The sky immediately darkened. The cold wind blew through the window and into every corner of the room!
Hua Juechen did not wait for Ting Lan and Ting Yu to say anything else and quickly ran out.
Looking at the flash of purple at the door, Ting Lan immediately said to Ting Yu,""This is bad. It looks like it will rain. The wounds on the Third Prince's body have not healed completely. If it rains, the wounds will worsen!”
"Hurry up and follow the Third Prince!" As Ting Yu spoke, she immediately strode forward with her long and slender legs. Seeing this, Ting Lan immediately followed behind her, pulling the distance between them further and further.
"Rumble!" An earth-shattering thunder rumbled, and a bolt of lightning streaked across the dark sky before disappearing like a flash in the pan.
Hua Juechen was running at top speed in front. Ting Yu, who was following behind him, had long since been left behind by him and was nowhere to be seen.
When he finally ran out of the courtyard, Hua Juechen immediately grabbed a eunuch who passed by him and grabbed his collar, saying,"Where is the Emperor?"
" Spare me…Spare me…" The young eunuch did not dare to make any movements. Seeing that someone had ambushed him, he was so scared that he immediately begged for mercy.
Seeing that the other party did not answer for a long time, he looked fearfully at the unusually handsome Hua Juechen in front of him. He noticed Hua Juechen's unusual purple eyes and his body could not help but tremble. Hua Juechen looked coldly and saw that he did not answer. The veins on his forehead bulged and he immediately said in a hoarse voice,"Hurry up and tell me, where is the emperor?"
The young eunuch pointed in a direction, trembling and stuttering." The…the Emperor is in the…study…"
Hua Juechen looked at the eunuch in front of him and snorted coldly. Then, he threw him on the ground and left in a purple robe!
"Hu! You scared me to death!" The little eunuch who was thrown to the ground by Hua Juechen secretly rejoiced as he spoke. There were also many doubts in his heart. Didn't everyone say that Third Prince Ao Qian was gentle and refined? Why did he see this?
Passing through the imperial flowers and gardens, Hua Juechen walked all the way to the imperial study. Along the way, he saw many people searching. Moreover, from the pace and temperament of those people, they were clearly the most well-trained team in the Imperial Palace. He did not expect that the Emperor would actually expend so much energy on him!
Ignoring the pain coming from his body, Hua Juanchen ran with determination.
At the back, the panting Ting Yu saw a eunuch sitting on the ground. She guessed that Hua Juechen must have gone to find the Emperor, so she asked,"Where is the Emperor?"
"Ah?" The eunuch clearly hadn't reacted yet. He was puzzled. Why are there so many people asking where the Emperor is today?
"I'm asking you where the emperor went!”Ting Yu's usual gentleness had long disappeared as she angrily berated.
"The Emperor is in the royal study!" Seeing Ting Yu's furious expression, the eunuch said.
Hearing this, Ting Yu immediately let go of the little eunuch and left alone.
The young eunuch looked at Ting Yu's departing figure, then staggered up from the ground and ran away. That's true. When would he have to wait until he ran? What if another one came out and asked where the Emperor was?
