"Your Highness!" Mu Xiyan shouted. When Situ Qirui heard the familiar voice, he turned his head and saw Mu Xiyan dressed in a concubine's attire. He could not help but be stunned.
" You..." Situ Qirui didn't know what to say.
"Long time no see, I missed you guys so much. Is Gu Xiaomei still in the Prince's mansion? Was she alright? Tell her that I'm in the palace. I'm eating well and sleeping well here. Don't worry about me. You…"
"Where did you go? Why are you dressed like this?" Before Mu Xiyan could finish, Situ Qirui interrupted her. Although he had already guessed a little, he still didn't want to believe it.
"That night, I encountered a lot of troublesome things. In the end, it was the emperor who helped me out. Under the circumstances, the emperor conferred me the title of Consort Zhen. I actually didn't want to be one, but it wasn't worth it to be eaten clean by him and leave like this! And now, I can't even leave if I want to! I guess I will be in this palace for the rest of my life. Tell Gu Xiaomai not to worry about me. I will talk to the emperor. I will definitely go back to see her!”Mu Xiyan felt that she had a lot of things to say, but when it came to her mouth, she started to spout nonsense.
"What?" Did Situ Qirui hear that Mu Xiyan had been eaten clean? Was she already Imperial Brother's woman? Ah, it turned out that the Emperor's first concubine was Mu Xiyan.
"Miss Gu left a note saying that she left the residence to look for Miss Mu. She has been gone for three days. Benwang sent people to look for Miss Gu, but there was no trace of her.”Situ Qirui said with a frown. He didn't know how much Miss Gu and he had been worried about this woman for so many days!
What was that? Gu Xiaomai, that silly woman, went out to look for him? Mu Xiyan was shocked. Gu Xiaomai was unfamiliar with this place. How did he run out? What if he lost it? He could not contact her at all!
"Wangye, I'm sorry for making you worry. It's my fault. I didn't tell you where I was in time.”Mu Xiyan said apologetically.
"As long as Miss Mu is safe, no, Zhen Fei niangniang!”Situ Qirui said dejectedly.
"Wangye, I still have things to do. I'll be leaving first.”Mu Xiyan hurriedly said goodbye, wanting Situ Chengyan to allow her to go out and find Gu Xiaomai. Gu Xiaomai was her only friend in this time and space!
"Wait, consort Zhen." "Does Miss Mu really like Imperial Brother?" The prince blocked her with his arm.”
"I don't know." Mu Xiyan thought about it and answered seriously. No matter what, Situ Chengyan was the first man in her life. Even if she did not like him, she had to maintain this relationship, right?
"Could it be that Zhen Fei niangniang likes the endless gold, silver, and jewelry in the Imperial Palace?”Situ Qirui hardened his heart and said,"For the sake of Consort Zhen, Miss Gu has already left for so long. Don't you feel guilty at all?"”
What was that? Situ Qirui actually said that he was trying to hook up with a rich man! She felt inexplicably uncomfortable and did not know how to refute Situ Qirui.
Mu Xiyan looked at Situ Qirui and said lightly,""I'll have to trouble your highness to continue searching for elder sister's whereabouts.”Then, he walked towards Zhenhe Palace without turning back, completely ignoring Situ Qirui who was still calling him from behind.
Mu Xiyan's mood was extremely bad. Situ Qirui was not wrong, but she was wrong. She had not considered Gu Xiaomai's feelings. She had thought about how to tell Gu Xiaomai about what happened that night, and then tell the Emperor after the talent show ended. She had thought that Gu Xiaomai would stay in the Prince's mansion and wait for her, but she did not expect Gu Xiaomai to leave the Prince's mansion to look for her in a completely unfamiliar place!
"Niangniang, you're back. Do you want to pass me lunch?”Xiao Lan, the palace maid, asked Mu Xiyan, who had just stepped into the palace.
"BenGong is not hungry, go down." Mu Xiyan ordered.
"Yes, Empress." Mu Xiyan sat quietly on the couch after Xiao Lan left. She thought to herself,'If nothing had happened between me and Situ Chengyan, it would have been better. It's all my fault. I shouldn't have entered the palace, and I shouldn't have slept with Situ Chengyan. Moreover, I took advantage of Situ Chengyan unknowingly. If word gets out, I'll be laughed at for the rest of my life.'
Mu Xiyan suddenly felt sleepy and fell asleep. After a while, the door was opened and quickly closed.
"Flowing Maple." Ye Mingjin called out calmly. Even he could hear the worry in his voice.
"Palace Master, don't worry. This is Vanilla Dew. It can make people fall asleep quickly and calm their minds. It's not a knockout powder and won't harm the body.”Flowing Maple heard the worry in Ye Mingjin's voice and quickly said. Mu Xiyan was able to fall asleep so quickly because of the effects of the Vanilla Dew!
Ye Mingjin was silent. He walked to the bed and looked at the woman who was still frowning deeply in her sleep. Ye Mingjin's heart ached.
"Palace Master, if Palace Master is worried about her, why don't you bring her back to White Jade Palace? With White Jade Palace's strength, it's not a problem for her to enter and leave the palace freely.
" The one with the dual colored eyes gets the world," Ye Mingjin said calmly." This is the divination that Master Liaoyuan gave to the Empress Dowager. What's so difficult about taking her away? But I have no interest in the world."
I'm just afraid that she'll think that I want her because I want the world…Ye Mingjin didn't say this out loud, but kept it in his heart.
" Palace Lord…" Seeing Ye Mingjin's desolation, Flowing Maple wanted to console him but didn't know what to say. He had grown up with the Palace Lord and helped him build the White Jade Palace step by step. The White Jade Palace was now so rich that it could rival the world. Its strength had even surpassed the military strength of a country. However, even though the Palace Master looked high and mighty, he was actually very lonely.
"Continue protecting him." Ye Mingjin ordered. Then, he opened the door and jumped onto the roof, disappearing in the blink of an eye.
Flowing Maple watched Ye Mingjin leave, then closed the door and jumped onto the roof, hiding in the dark.
Mu Xiyan only got up after a comfortable sleep. She didn't even know what time it was.
"Xiaolan, Xiaolan." Mu Xiyan shouted towards the door.
Not long after, the door was pushed open and Xiao Lan walked in.""Empress, you're awake."
"How long did BenGong sleep for?" Mu Xiyan rubbed her eyes and asked.
"Four hours."
"Has the emperor been here before?" Mu Xiyan asked.
"Replying to niangniang, the emperor came to see niangniang and saw that niangniang was resting. He said that he would not disturb niangniang's rest and would come to Zhen He Palace at night.”Lan answered honestly.
"Have all the ladies chosen today entered the palace?”Mu Xiyan sat in front of the bronze mirror and asked.
"He has already entered the palace."
"Help BenGong dress up and go to Xuanyang Palace to pay respects to the emperor.”Mu Xiyan said. This time, she had to ask Situ Chengyan to approve her leave and go out to look for Gu Xiaomai.
After dressing up, Mu Xiyan walked to Xuanyang Palace. As soon as she reached the palace gate, she heard laughter coming from inside.
