[69 Book Bar-www.] The girls in the east courtyard were very happy to see me coming back.

I learned about Concubine Yun from their mouths, and I felt very sad. Xiao Yuchen had never told me these things, and only now did I know that it was Concubine Yun who really poisoned me.

But when Bing'er brought a thick pile of exquisite golden-edged peonies, I still couldn't hold back my tears. After all, I couldn't hate Concubine Yun.

In the east courtyard, there is still a familiar scenery. It was also at this season last year that Xiao Yuchen's big red sedan brought us in.

At this moment, I have a different mood. Maybe feelings can really control a person's mood. I no longer think about how to kill the boring days like before. The strong sense of belonging makes me willing to wait for the one I love.

Xiao Yuchen, you are really a lucky guy. This is the first time that this girl has cared about someone like this. So, come back quickly! The waiting days are too long and too painful.

Xiao Yuqi has been here a few times, maybe because she has grown up and is more calm than before, but there is a melancholy in her eyes that cannot be concealed. Although she is a little worried, she does not ask more questions. Who can have nothing to worry about?

When she wants to say something, she will naturally say it.

Seeing that half a month has passed, Xiao Yuchen and the others have not come back yet. And my concern at the beginning gradually turned into worry. What on earth happened that made him leave so resolutely that day?

I asked Qier that the emperor had not issued any imperial edict, so what exactly was he anxious to do?

Nangong Jin can't hold himself back anymore. He has been acting as my personal guard these days. He said that I am the person he must protect in this world.

When there was no one around, we would chat about the gossip of the 21st century, but there was always a very bitter feeling. Today, he was brought into the palace by Qi Gege to find Leng, hoping to get some news from Leng.

Since the last battle with the Kru Kingdom, several of Xiao Yuchen's generals have become popular figures in front of the emperor.

In the evening, Nangong Jin came back. His face looked a little bad. He said that before we came back, Ye Guo sent a letter, but it was a private message to Xiao Yuchen. Therefore, except for Ling Hefeng who went together, I am afraid no one

I know the content of the letter.

But what took so long?

In the following days, I became more and more uneasy. Liu'er comforted me and said that it was because I cared too much about the prince that I was so worried about him.

Because she was worried about my condition, Liu'er didn't say she wanted to go back and stayed with me all the time, which moved me very much.

In order not to worry the people who care about me, I started to learn to pretend and play carelessly every day. I don’t know when I started to know how to hide my emotions. This is completely different from the me before.

.

The various emotions behind the smile will only flood crazily when you are alone.

On the twenty-third day, Leng Heyu came. They were Xiao Yuchen's confidants. Xiao Yuchen had been away for so long, so they noticed something was wrong and decided to go to Night Kingdom.

The emperor has not summoned Xiao Yuchen recently, so this matter did not alarm the emperor.

Nangong Jin strongly requested to go together, but was stopped by Leng. Because Nangong Jin's mission was to stay and protect me, they were also afraid that I would be harmed again.

Nangong Jin agreed very nicely this time. We have regarded each other as the most important friends, so he still compromised on my concerns.

Next came another torturous wait, and Xiao Yuchen would appear in my dreams every night. I began to become like any girl in love, because I couldn't see each other, so I was lovesick.

I thought that Leng Heyu's trip to the Night Kingdom would bring Xiao Yuchen back, but ten days passed and there was no news, not even the two of them came back.

I had a terrible dream. I dreamed that Xiao Yuchen was covered in blood and kept calling me Guoer... Guoer... I wanted to agree, but I couldn't make a sound... I wanted to reach out and grab him, but I couldn't move. Then I watched helplessly.

As he slowly becomes transparent, then disappears...

The silent dream still made me wake up crying... I couldn't calm down anymore, and waiting like this was not an option. This dream gave me a particularly bad premonition.

I must find him, I must see him soon, otherwise, my heart will be torn apart by this concern and longing.

I begged Nangong Jin for a long time, he didn’t want me to go to Ye Country so rashly, but finally seeing how determined I was, he agreed...

Liu'er also insisted on accompanying me. She said that she had stayed in Ye Kingdom for several years and was familiar with the people around Situ Ye, so she might be able to help.

Although I was not sure about Xiao Yuchen's current situation, my strong uneasiness clearly told me that he must be in trouble. So seeing Liu'er's expression that he could not refuse, he nodded in agreement.

So, the three of us set off. In order to rush for time, we did not take a carriage. Fortunately, we learned to ride horses last time in Tianchi Kingdom. Although our riding skills are not good, at least we have overcome our original fear of riding horses.

I was a little worried about such a long journey, but I couldn't worry too much now. I rode quickly all the way to the Kingdom of Night.

My face turned pale because of fatigue. Nangong Jin and Liu Er were both worried. They asked me to change carriages several times on the way, but I refused. Later, when I was really exhausted, I agreed to stay at the inn for the night.

In the previous two days, I had been traveling day and night, and I could only take a short break during meals. This was simply the limit for me who had never endured hardship, but when I thought of Xiao Yuchen who disappeared in my dream,

, I don’t care about that much anymore. I just want to see him and see if he is okay.

Finally, one evening several days after setting off, we arrived at Night Country.

Although I was extremely anxious, I still never thought of going to Situ Ye rashly. After all, we don’t know exactly what happened, and impulsiveness has its own occasion.

So I found an inconspicuous little inn and stayed there first. I wanted to find out more information first.

When the waiter brought hot water upstairs, I pretended to ask casually: "Brother, has anything big happened in Ye Kingdom recently?"

"Girl, are you a foreigner? Ever since the new emperor ascended the throne, the Night Kingdom has been relatively peaceful. There was a war with the Yu Kingdom in the past few months. Later, the emperor withdrew his troops in time, and the Yu Kingdom did not invade, sparing us common people.

What a disaster! Girl, just live here with peace of mind, your life will be quite peaceful."

After hearing what he said, I continued to use my acting skills, breathed a long sigh of relief, and said: "That's good, we are here to have fun, and we are just afraid of getting into trouble. Thank you, little brother." After that,

Not forgetting to give him a piece of silver. He left with a smile on his face.

I asked Nangong Jin from the next room to come into my and Liu'er's room, closed the door, and everyone looked heavy.

"It seems that this matter is a bit strange. Since it was Situ Ye who asked Xiao Yuchen to come, but he disappeared for no reason. There is no news about it, what should I do? Otherwise, I should go into the palace to find Situ Ye!

"

"We can't go!" Liu'er and Nangong Jin said in unison.

"But, there is no other way now. What's the use of waiting and being anxious?"

"I'll go. When it gets dark, I'll go to the palace and see if I can find any clues." Nangong Jin said.

"That won't work. It would be too dangerous. You have forgotten that you are the only one who can protect us now. What if you disappear like them? What should I do..."

I rejected Nangong Jin's proposal. In fact, I was not afraid that no one would protect me. I was just worried about him. It was too dangerous to break into the palace at night...

Liu'er seemed to suddenly remember something and said excitedly: "I have a solution! When I was still in the palace, I had a good relationship with Zhang Ma, who was in charge of purchasing. Later, when the emperor came to the throne, because Zhang Ma had been in the palace for many years, she also entered the palace.

As the palace steward, Zhang Ma personally went out to select the ingredients for the royal dining room. She used to come out once every three days, so..."

"So we can wait for this Zhang Ma to show up and see if we can get anything out of her mouth?" I was also a little excited when I heard Liu'er's words.

"Well, if the prince is in the palace, there will definitely be some rumors." Liu'er affirmed again.

"Okay, let's do it! Liu'er, starting from tomorrow, we will go to the place where she purchased it and wait for Zhang Ma. I'll leave it to you to find out the news."

Apart from this, there is currently no other way. Although Nangong Jin has almost lost the patience to wait any longer, he can only listen to us for now.

The three anxious people all fell asleep in this small inn.

The only hope is placed on that Ma Zhang, I hope I can wait for her tomorrow.

Every day I am delayed, my spirit will be even more devastated. If I continue like this, without finding Xiao Yuchen, I will suffer from depression myself.
