After rebirth, the empress was spoiled by the emperor's uncle like a little girl

Xie Wuai was trembling with fear, and whispered: "If it doesn't work, shall we call for help, sister?"

But Po shook his head decisively, "No."

After a pause, she explained, "You once said that the group of hawks in the West Prison kept an eye on the Fengran Palace. I came here quietly tonight, and I must hide it from my father."

Xie Wuai had no choice but to think of another way, "Then I'll jump first, and you can use me as a cushion."

The night wind whistled over the high wall. A Bao pinched Xie Wuai's pretty face, "I just promised the Imperial Aunt to protect you, but now you're being used as a cushion. You broke your promise like this, Xie, you're not afraid of pissing off your own mother, but I'm worried about pissing off my own aunt!!"

Xie Wuai bared his big white teeth and laughed.

Ah Bao snorted angrily and pinched his little brother Xie's handsome face, "Let me think of a way."

However, before she could finish her words, she heard footsteps approaching hurriedly from the front and back.

Xie Wuai nervously grasped the corner of A Bao's sleeve, "Royal sister!"

It’s no big deal if you’re caught by the palace guards.

Xuanyuan Fengran always manages to make his guards keep secrets.

A Bao frowned and hesitated. The most dangerous thing at this moment was to be captured on the spot by the Western Prison Tiger Guards.

In the extremely urgent situation, when fire was on the line, A Bao suddenly thought of a clever idea. He reached out to tear off Xie Wuai's cloak to make a rope, and quickly slipped down the wall of the palace.

But the palace guards arrived faster than she expected and even brought a bamboo ladder.

Along with the palace guards came the old eunuch Debao beside Xuanyuan Fengran, "Hey, little princess, why are you hanging on the wall? Come down quickly!"

A Bao was so embarrassed that he wanted to cover his face: "..."

Xie Wuai sighed: "This young marquis has a great reputation in his life - ah -"

Before he could finish his words, he was pulled off the wall by Po.

At the critical moment, the Western Prison Tiger Guards just happened to be outside the west courtyard wall, but only heard a scream.

There were also guards in the palace shouting to catch the thief.

The West Prison guards felt relieved upon hearing this, and without giving it any further thought, they disappeared into the inky night again.

Inside the western courtyard wall of the palace, A Bao leaned against the wall and listened to the footsteps for a long time. Only when he was sure that the Western Prison Tiger Guards had all withdrawn did he breathe a sigh of relief.

Xie Wuai held onto the bamboo ladder tightly and asked weakly, "How did you know we were here?"

"The prince has told me that you are coming, and asked me to bring someone to pick you up." Old Eunuch Debao smiled with wrinkles all over his face. He presented the white fox fur coat and explained, "Oh! I have waited for so many years, and finally you, the little princess, are here."

A Bao took the white fox fur and recognized it at a glance. It was the fur that Xuanyuan Fengran wore when they were standing in the snow in thin clothes in the Imperial Medical Bureau. She was afraid that he would catch a cold and get sick, so she took it off and gave it to him.

A Bao stroked the soft and warm white fox fur in his arms, wondering, "How could the emperor's uncle know I was coming?"

The old eunuch Debao smiled and said in a loving tone, "The prince knows. Right now, the prince is waiting for you, little princess, in the watchtower."

Abao didn't remember that she and Lao Debao had a deep friendship, but Lao Debao smiled with relief when he saw her.

But no matter how strange the scene before her was, she had no time to think about it.

"What is the watchtower?"

"It's the building behind our palace."

After he finished speaking, Grandpa Debao was so excited that he pointed directly into the distance.

Upon hearing this, A Bao raised his eyes and looked into the distance, only to see that there was indeed a tall building behind the palace that overlooked the other pavilions and towers in the palace, and at the top of the tower, there was a flickering candlelight.

It turned out that Xuanyuan Fengran discovered that she was trying to climb over the wall and was lighting the way for her.

A Bao coughed twice awkwardly, then pretended to be calm.

"In that case, I would like to trouble you to lead the way. I have something to discuss with my uncle."

The old eunuch Debao laughed even more happily, "You are bothering me! It's no trouble at all! I will take you to see the prince right now."

As he spoke, Old Debao led the way with a lantern, smiling in a comforting way, "Princess, please come quickly. The prince will be very happy to see you when he returns from the palace today."

A Bao leaned close to Xie Wuai's ear and gave him a few words of advice before following.

But she didn't expect that there was only one candle in the watchtower in Prince Fengran's mansion at night.

There are winding corridors all around, and the mountain stream behind the palace is gurgling continuously, gathering into a clear lake in the palace. The moonlight half-hidden in the dark clouds pours down, and the surface of the lake is sparkling with silver, and fish are swimming under the lotus leaves.

A Bao walked across the small bridge over the lake. With the help of the lamp held by Lao Debao, he saw a pavilion built against an old willow tree beside the lake.

In the pavilion, one could vaguely see a soft couch, a table and a tea stove.

A Bao felt that this scene seemed familiar.
