Concubine Shu was a little disdainful after hearing this. She thought Zhou Xiaoyuan was simply crazy. In this court, it was normal for men to have wives and concubines, which was a symbol of power and status.

But Zhou Xiaoyuan wants to break this tradition, which is undoubtedly an unrealistic fantasy.

"You have to watch your mouth." Concubine Shu warned, "In this palace, there are some things that can be done and some things that cannot be done. If you don't want to cause unnecessary trouble and danger, it's best not to talk nonsense. "

Zhou Xiaoyuan knew that Concubine Shu's reminder was out of concern. She was grateful for Concubine Shu's kindness, and she also understood that there were some things that could not be said and some things that could not be done in the palace.

So she decided to return to her home and concentrate on preparing for Nini's schooling, and no longer think about those annoying things.

However, Nini was sensitively aware of Zhou Xiaoyuan's unhappiness. She changed her ways to make Zhou Xiaoyuan happy and stayed with Zhou Xiaoyuan every day.

Although Zhou Xiaoyuan understood Nini's intentions, she found that sometimes she couldn't stand Nini's clinginess and she needed some independent space and time.

"Nini, I'm a little tired today and want to be alone." Zhou Xiaoyuan said softly.

"Okay, mother." Nini said obediently, "I will be obedient and not disturb you."

Zhou Xiaoyuan smiled faintly. She knew that Nini was very considerate, but she also needed some independent space and time.

So she decided to send Nini to Sima Mansion for a day to relax her mind.

Sima Feng learned that Nini was worried about her mother's unhappiness. He said that children did not understand the world of adults, so he explained to Nini.

After Xia Yechen learned about the conversation between Concubine Shu and Zhou Xiaoyuan, he felt

Feeling very uneasy. He understood that Zhou Xiaoyuan cared about his own feelings and attitude.

So he decided to go to Zhou Xiaoyuan in person and assured her that she would only be the princess.

"Xiaoyuan, I heard that you talked with my mother-in-law." Xia Yechen looked at Zhou Xiaoyuan and said, "I know you are a little uneasy, but I want to tell you that I will love you forever and only you. .”

Zhou Xiaoyuan felt very moved after hearing Xia Yechen's words. She believed that Xia Yechen truly loved her and his words were sincere.

So she decided to put aside her doubts and trust Xia Yechen.

"I know you really love me." Zhou Xiaoyuan said, "I will always be by your side and face all difficulties and challenges with you."

Xia Yechen felt very relieved after hearing Zhou Xiaoyuan's words. He knew that Zhou Xiaoyuan truly loved him, and he was willing to stay with her all the time.

In the following days, Xia Yechen was busy with spies every day. He needs to send someone to investigate the news about the East Vietnamese spies and understand their movements and purposes.

Zhou Xiaoyuan is responsible for sending Nini to Sixuefu every day. Although she is very busy, she feels that she is doing something meaningful and fulfilling.

One day, the fifth princess was released from the palace. She was a little dissatisfied when she saw that Xia Yechen did not accompany Nini to school.

So she walked over and mocked Nini for not being loved by her father.

"Why are you so pitiful? Your father doesn't love you." The fifth princess said.

Nini felt very aggrieved after hearing what the fifth princess said. She didn't know how to answer the fifth princess, or what to say.

It can make her understand her feelings.

At this moment, Sima Feng appeared. He heard what the fifth princess said and saw Nini's grievance. So he walked over to rescue Nini.

"Your Highness the Fifth Princess, what's wrong with you?" Sima Feng asked, "You shouldn't talk to others like this. It's very rude."

After hearing what Sima Feng said, the fifth princess felt very unhappy. She felt that she was not wrong, but Nini was just pitiful.

So she said: "I just told the truth. She is indeed not loved by her father."

After hearing what the fifth princess said, Sima Feng felt very angry. He believed that the fifth princess was sowing discord and deliberately creating conflicts and disputes.

So he said: "Your Highness, Fifth Princess, what you said is very inappropriate. We should not laugh at others, let alone create conflicts and disputes."

After hearing what Sima Feng said, the fifth princess felt very dissatisfied. She felt that she was not wrong, and Sima Feng had nothing to do with her.

So she turned and left, ignoring Sima Feng and Nini.

Sima Feng felt very helpless after seeing the leaving figure of the fifth princess.

Zhou Xiaoyuan took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down. She knew that the most important thing now was to keep Nini safe. So, she turned to Sima Feng and said, "Please take good care of Nini."

Sima Feng looked at Zhou Xiaoyuan, took a deep breath and nodded. He knew he had to protect Nini and keep her safe.

So, he said: "I will take good care of Nini, don't worry."

Zhou Xiaoyuan nodded gratefully to Sima Feng, then turned and left. She knows that now the most

The important thing is to find Sixue and ask him to take good care of Nini.

Zhou Xiaoyuan quickly found Sixue. She looked at him, took a deep breath, and then said: "Sixue, I have something to ask you for help."

Sixue looked at Zhou Xiaoyuan with some doubts in his heart. He didn't know if Zhou Xiaoyuan needed his help for anything. So, he asked: "What do you want me to help you with?"

Zhou Xiaoyuan hesitated for a moment, and then said: "I want you to take good care of Nini."

Sixue looked at Zhou Xiaoyuan in surprise. He didn't know why Zhou Xiaoyuan asked him like this. So, he asked: "What happened?"

Zhou Xiaoyuan hesitated for a moment, and then said: "I'm a little worried that Nini won't be able to integrate into the collective at Si Xuefu."

After listening to Zhou Xiaoyuan's words, Sixue felt a little moved. He knew that Zhou Xiaoyuan was worried about Nini's safety and happiness. So, he said: "Don't worry, I will take good care of Nini."

Zhou Xiaoyuan nodded gratefully to Sixue, then turned and left. She knew that the most important thing now was to return to the house and find Xia Yechen.

However, when Zhou Xiaoyuan returned to the mansion, she found that her carriage was parked at the door.

She had some doubts in her heart, so she stepped forward to check, only to find that the coachman had spread smoke into the carriage. She immediately realized something was wrong and wanted to turn around and leave, but it was too late.

She felt her consciousness gradually blurring, and finally passed out in the carriage.

When Zhou Xiaoyuan woke up, she found that she had been tied up and was in a dilapidated Temple of Wealth. She observed her surroundings and began to think about how to escape.

The kidnappers come in

They were holding knives and guns in their hands, with fierce and cruel expressions on their faces. Zhou Xiaoyuan quickly closed her eyes and pretended to sleep.

She heard one of the kidnappers say: "We have been discovered, now we only have to kidnap the two of them to negotiate."
