Before the little palace maid had time to beg for mercy, she heard another shrill roar in the palace.

Then the Taoist who exorcised evil spirits calmly walked out of the temple. Still wearing that weird Nuo mask, it makes people shudder.

The Taoist came to stand in front of the little palace maid, "Are you calling Hua'er?"

The little palace maid hesitated slightly, Hua'er was her maiden name at home, but she was forcibly changed after entering the palace. How could the person in front of me know?

Just when she was confused, the man continued: "You have a mother and a younger brother at home? They live in Sanlibao on the outskirts of the city..."

The Taoist told the little palace maid's family background without any deviation, just like a neighbor who lives near his own home.

Although the little palace maid was young, she was very clever. When she heard what the Taoist said, she immediately knelt on the ground.

"Grandpa Immortal, have mercy! Whatever Grandpa Immortal wants, Hua'er will do it!"

The Taoist paused, and his voice became much lighter. "...What a smart girl..."

The little palace maid listened to the Taoist's instructions and went to the Queen Mother's Palace to recover before entering the main hall of Changle Palace.

The Taoist said that he wanted to report to the Queen Mother that everything was fine.

The nights in Changle Palace seem to be longer than in other places, and even the night guards rarely visit here. In the silent night, the entire palace seemed to be asleep.

The little palace maid opened the door of the dormitory and saw Qu Xian'er lying on the ground panting slightly. She saw the broken bones all over her body. In some places, the bone bruises were almost exposed. Then she understood what she had just done. what happened.

She covered her mouth and nose to prevent herself from vomiting. Although he was afraid, he could only bravely close the door.

"Woooo..."

After seeing the little palace maid, Qu Xianer seemed to have found a life-saving straw, and she opened her mouth and wanted to speak.

A burst of blood instantly overflowed from her mouth, and the frightened little palace maid took several steps back.

Qu Xianer was speechless.

She was tortured to death by the Taoist, and then woke up from the pain again.

She whimpered for help, but it frightened the little palace maid into tears.

With a "thump", the little palace maid knelt down, and Bang Bang kowtowed to the ground several times.

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty, please forgive me! It's not that I'm cruel and refuses to save you, it's that person... He's too powerful and I can't afford to offend him!

Just bear with it and bear with it..."

The little palace maid suddenly stopped talking.

The Taoist said that in the dead of night, he would ask the maid to throw Qu Xian'er, who was still half alive, into the lotus pond, just like Cen Huan back then.

There seemed to be a string in the little palace maid's mind that suddenly broke when she thought of Cen Huan.

She didn't know whether it was because she was frightened or because her conscience was really disturbed. She burst into tears and said, "My dear, please bear with me. It won't hurt anymore when you're cold..."

……

A carriage came slowly through the early morning mist, and soon stopped in front of Princess Ruian's Mansion.

The car curtain opened, and a slender figure in plain clothes stepped out. After seeing the slender indigo figure waiting in front of the door, his slightly sad face instantly became indifferent.

"where have you been?"

Qu Baiyu asked.

Yuan Tong'er didn't speak, and passed by without even giving him a look.

Qu Baiyu continued: "Qu Xian'er is dead! He died in that lotus pond."

Hearing this, Yuan Tong'er turned around.

"...Dead? A good death."

Qu Baiyu said: "You...don't you have anything to say?"

Yuan Tong'er was puzzled, "What should I say? Oh... Prince Laoyu came early in the morning to bring such good news to me. Jinhua, reward me."

After she said that, she turned around and left, but her wrist was grabbed by Qu Baiyu.

"Yuan Tong'er, do you know what you are doing?"

Yuan Tong'er immediately shook off his hand and chuckled: "What did I do?"

As soon as she finished speaking, a Nuo mask was instantly thrown to the ground by Qu Baiyu.

Yuan Tong'er was stunned, looked at the mask, and then at Qu Baiyu.

She remembered that Qu Baiyu had always kept this mask in his brocade box, but now he threw it away on the ground, letting the mask roll to the ground and get stuck to the mud.

She didn't speak, but looked at Qu Baiyu in disbelief.

The hazy morning mist seemed to have drifted into Yuan Tong'er's eyes, shrouding the light-colored pupils, and the mist seemed to have condensed a burst of water vapor.

Qu Baiyu's heart moved slightly, and then he felt that he might have fainted from anxiety, and reached out to take Yuan Tong'er's hand again.

"...You are taking too many risks. Your Majesty will deal with her. Why should you..."

"Disposal? How to dispose of it? After disposing of it, can Cen Huan come back?"

Yuan Tong'er felt an inexplicable sourness in her heart, and she held it back so as not to cry.

Qu Baiyu whispered: "But even if she dies, Cen Huan can't come back! You have always been rational, why now..."

"She is my sister, how do you want me to be rational!"

Yuan Tong'er interrupted him again.

Time seemed to have stood still. Not only was Qu Baiyu stunned, but Yuan Tong'er who said these words couldn't help but feel a little startled.

When did she seem to be really...into the drama...

"Sane... I am not as sensible as Prince Yu."

Yuan Tong'er took a long breath and said seriously.

"Is Prince Yu coming to arrest me? If so, please provide evidence and I will follow you!"

Qu Baiyu said: "You know I can't."

"Since you won't, then please leave."

Yuan Tong'er returned to a state of indifference, then turned and left.

"Thank you so much, Prince Yu, for coming here to inform me today, but please don't come here from time to time in the future. We men and women are unmarried, if we speak out, it will inevitably be criticized!"

But Qu Baiyu followed up again, "Whoever wants to criticize him, let him criticize me. I am unmarried and waiting for you to marry. As long as you are willing..."

"Prince Yu!"

Yuan Tong'er immediately interrupted him, "Do you think it's appropriate to talk about this now?"

Qu Baiyu was like a child who had done something wrong. He immediately lost his previous arrogance and said, "I'm sorry... I know you are angry with me. I was careless that day and was plotted..."

Yuan Tong'er smiled.

"You're not careless, you just don't care."

She said and looked seriously into Qu Baiyu's eyes.

"It's because I take myself too seriously, and it's also because I overestimate your temperament. Even though I've known what kind of person you are from people all over the world, I still feel that it's not the real you, and that they all misunderstood you. about you.

Only now do I believe that, as they said, you are a cold-blooded, ungrateful and ungrateful person. In your heart, you don't care about anything else except yourself and the things you care about and are valuable. "

She said decisively, with an indifferent expression as if she were looking at a stranger.

Qu Baiyu had never seen her look like this before, cold and domineering. He looked steadily at the person in front of him. From those beautiful eyes, he could no longer see the love of the past, only resentment.

"That's not the case, Your Highness, it's not that our Highness doesn't care..."

"It goes without saying."

Qu Baiyu stopped Cui Xiaoyi who wanted to defend himself.

"Since His Highness misses me so much, then I am such a person!"
