The prince supports her, and the reborn princess kills people

Monsoon gasped.

It's a relief that you're still alive after taking action against you. If the emperor knew about this, you wouldn't have enough heads to chop off even if you had nine!

"What about her?"

The officer rubbed his head and pointed in a direction.

"Going that way."

Ji Feng immediately sent people to chase after him, and he hurried back to the palace, bringing the jade pendant to report to Gu Beihuai.

The moment he saw the jade pendant, Gu Beihuai stood up suddenly, not caring at all that he knocked over his favorite inkstone.

"Where is she?"

Ji Feng said cautiously: "The Queen has already left. I have sent someone to chase her. I believe we will get some clues soon."

Gu Beihuai's heart sank to the bottom and his face was solemn.

"If you can't find her, I will go find her myself."

"Your Majesty, you can't do that." Su Peichang was the first to object. "Your Majesty, the country cannot be without a ruler for a day. You can't risk leaving the palace!"

Gu Beihuai said coldly: "I am going to look for someone, not to die. You are more worried about state affairs than I am. Why don't you take the throne?"

Su Peichang was so frightened that his face turned pale and he immediately knelt down and begged for mercy.

"That's not what I meant. Your Majesty, please forgive me..."

Gu Beihuai no longer looked at him, but changed his clothes and quietly went out of the palace.

At the same time, Gu Ruxiao was rushing to the palace.

She heard that Gu Beihuai was "seriously ill", and she also received an urgent imperial edict asking her to enter the palace, which made her anxious and worried, and her eyes were red.

If something really happened to her brother, she didn't know how to face it...

The more Gu Ruxiao thought about it, the more frightened he became, and he rushed into the Yangxin Palace in a hurry.

"Brother Emperor!"

There was a strong tone of crying in the voice.

"Your Highness!"

When Su Peichang saw her, he hurried out as if he had seen a savior.

Gu Ruxiao grabbed him and asked anxiously, "Where is my brother? How is he? Tell me!"

Su Peichang was stunned for a moment and quickly explained.

"Your Highness, you have misunderstood. The Emperor is fine. He just had to leave the palace for an urgent matter. He has specially issued an order for you to come and handle some state affairs within your ability."

Gu Ruxiao: “…”

So they called her here in such a hurry just to let her handle the affairs of state?

She thought...

"Brother Emperor, are you okay?"

"Don't worry Princess, the Emperor is doing fine."

Gu Ruxiao rubbed her eyebrows. She had seen people who cheated their fathers, but this was the first time she saw someone who cheated his sister.

Su Peichang made a gesture of invitation with a wry smile on his face.

"Your Highness, this way please. The Emperor has made all the arrangements before he left."

What else could Gu Ruxiao do? She could only accept her fate and go.

*

After Gu Beihuai left the palace, the people who were tracking Shen Qingyan came to report the news.

"The person...is lost."

what?

Ji Feng was shocked and his first reaction was to look at Gu Beihuai.

Gu Beihuai's face was as dark as water, and the cold aura around him made people dare not look up.

"Look for him, even if I have to search the entire capital."

In fact, Shen Qingyan and Gu Huatang didn't go far at all.

After going around in circles, they finally settled down in a restaurant near the government office.

Gu Huatang's big eyes flickered with a bit of excitement and excitement.

The process of escaping from the pursuit just now made her feel unprecedented novelty and excitement, so she hurriedly held Shen Qingyan's face and said very seriously.

"Mom, are we going to play hide and seek with them? It's so fun, Tangtang wants to play again!"

Shen Qingyan helped her wipe the sweat off her forehead and said helplessly, "Next time, if you don't want to tire your mother to death."

At first, the people chasing them were ordinary officials, and she was able to deal with them, but for some reason, the secret guards joined in, and she had to work very hard to get rid of them.

Fortunately, I have not neglected my health in these three years and have been exercising diligently, otherwise I would have been caught up by them long ago.

Humph, don't think she doesn't know that the reason they suddenly drove them away was because they received instructions from the higher-ups.

What, Gu Beihuai doesn’t want to see her?

Okay, okay, then don’t even think about seeing her and Tangtang again!

A slight disappointment flashed across Gu Huatang's eyes, but he quickly comforted himself.

"It's okay, mother. We won't play with them anymore. Mother, it smells so good. What's that smell?"

Naturally, it tastes like the restaurant’s signature dish.

After busying around for most of the day, Shen Qingyan felt hungry, so she ordered a table of dishes and asked the waiter to deliver them to their room.

She left the jade pendant behind on purpose, and probably soon people would be looking for her all over the street, but she was not panicked at all.

As the saying goes, the most dangerous place is the safest place. Those people didn't expect her to come back and be so close to them, right?

After eating and drinking, Shen Qingyan opened the window and admired the scenery outside.

However, as soon as he opened the window, he saw many more soldiers and guards on the street, searching for something and holding portraits in their hands.

Gu Huatang had good eyesight and immediately saw the person in the portrait.

"Mother, mother, that's you!"

Gu Huatang pointed his finger, and the colorful rope tied around his wrist fell off and flew onto the street with the wind.

Shen Qingyan was startled, but it was too late to retrieve it, so she could only quickly close the window.

On the street, a guard seemed to have noticed something, but when he looked up, he saw nothing.

While Jiang Mufan was waiting for news from Shen Qingyan, he also did not forget to take care of his family business.

He heard that there was a Lu family in the capital, who were originally wealthy merchants, but had gradually declined in recent years. They had a sword-making pool in a villa that had been abandoned for years, and he wanted to buy it at a low price and turn it into a dyeing workshop.

After initially reaching a good agreement, Jiang Mufan decided to go to the sword-making pool tomorrow.

However, on the way back, he saw officials all over the street, holding Shen Qingyan's portrait and asking questions everywhere.

His heart skipped a beat and he wanted to go forward to inquire about what was going on, but then he saw a colorful rope floating in the wind from the second floor of a restaurant not far away.

That is... what Tangtang is wearing on her wrist!

Without asking any more questions, he immediately rushed into the restaurant and headed towards the room.

After closing the window, Shen Qingyan was still feeling frightened.

You probably didn't see her?

Seeing that she looked strange, Gu Huatang asked in a low voice.

"Mom, are we playing hide and seek again?"

Shen Qingyan thought about it and lowered her voice.

"I guess so. Anyway, we can't let them catch us and make your father anxious."

Gu Huatang nodded as if he understood, and his eyes became brighter.

"Is Daddy a bad guy? Tangtang wants to help Mommy get rid of this bad Daddy!"

Shen Qingyan blinked and smiled slyly, "Strictly speaking, your father is not a bad person, but mother has to punish him."

Gu Huatang tilted his little head, not understanding the cause and effect relationship, but commented on Shen Qingyan's smile.

"Mom, I think the way you smile now makes you look more like a bad guy..."

Shen Qingyan: “…”

"You stinky Tangtang, stop talking nonsense." She reached out to scratch Gu Huatang.

Gu Huatang giggled and spoke while dodging.

"Mother is talking nonsense, Tangtang doesn't stink, hahaha..."

Just when the mother and daughter were in a happy atmosphere, there was a sudden knock on the door.
