After becoming a princess, she fell in love with the emperor of the enemy country

Chapter 233 It’s time for you to go back

Zhou Ziyue smiled awkwardly and quickly changed the subject.

She quickly stuffed the Night Pearl into her arms, then took Wuyou's hand and said, "Sister, we haven't seen each other for a long time. Why waste time here with this bastard? Let's have a good chat."

After saying that, she took Qi Wuyou's hand and turned to leave.

However, just as Qi Wuyou was about to leave, Xuan Yelan suddenly stood up and blocked their way.

He glanced at the broken door and asked coldly, "Who broke my door?"

Lianxiang, who was standing by, pretended to know nothing and whistled nonchalantly.

Xuan Yelan turned his gaze to Liu He, only to see Liu He's face filled with anger. He pointed at Lian Xiang and said loudly, "Your Majesty, she did it!"

Lianxiang was immediately panicked and quickly retorted: "Do you have any evidence? Did you see it with your own eyes?"

Liu He was stunned for a moment, because when Lianxiang kicked the door, Hexiang happened to cover his eyes, so he really didn't see it.

"I heard it. Besides, there were only a few of us here, and Mei Xue and He Xiang stopped me. If it wasn't you who kicked him, then who was it? Could it be the Queen?"

Liu He said with a look of resentment that he didn't believe Lianxiang could still make excuses.

"I was the one who kicked it open," Qi Wuyou took the blame.

She looked at Xuan Yelan, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, and asked provocatively: "Do you have any objection?"

Xuan Yelan glared at Lianxiang who looked smug, and gnashed his teeth in anger, "How could it be?"

Qi Wuyou rolled his eyes at Xuan Yelan, then took Zhou Ziyue's hand and turned to leave, "If there's nothing else, we'll leave."

In the end, Qi Wuyou and Zhou Ziyue walked away hand in hand, and the door was repaired by Xuan Yelan himself.

Of course, the money was deducted from Liu He’s monthly salary, after all, it was his fault for failing to guard the child properly!

Xuan Yelan scolded Liu Hechou and only then did he feel a little better.

Liu He could only stand aside with a frustrated look on his face, silently enduring it all.

After scolding Liu He, Xuan Yelan returned to the dragon table. When he saw the inkstone on the dragon table, his breathing suddenly stopped.

Xuan Yelan secretly rejoiced in his heart that An An didn't notice this just now, otherwise she would have discovered it.

On the other side, Qi Wuyou and Zhou Ziyue were walking towards Fengyi Palace, but they were summoned by the Queen Mother halfway.

The Queen Mother was very surprised when she saw Zhou Ziyue and asked, "Why didn't you tell me you were back?"

Zhou Ziyue pushed the responsibility onto Xuan Yelan without hesitation and said, "Alas, Queen Mother, I also want to come back to see you, but Your Majesty won't let me! If An An hadn't arrived in time, I'm afraid I would have been on my way to Qing Kingdom now."

In fact, this is indeed the case.

If Qi Wuyou hadn't gone to make trouble today, Zhou Ziyue might have really left.

This time she came back because she had important matters to deal with.

That damned Xuan Yelan was simply a jerk. He made her come from such a far place, not even giving her a chance to breathe, and as soon as she came back he urged her to leave.

Since he is so heartless and ungrateful, don't blame her for being rude.

When Qi Wuyou heard Zhou Ziyue say this, his favorability towards Xuan Yelan dropped again, and even the empress dowager couldn't help but criticize her.

"How can you do this, kid? I can't order you around like this no matter how anxious I am!"

She looked at Zhou Ziyue, her eyes full of heartache and dissatisfaction.

Zhou Ziyue did not blush or feel nervous, and continued to flatter the Queen Mother, "Yes, I originally wanted to visit my parents when I came back this time, but...ah, this is a serious matter, I dare not delay."

The Queen Mother gave Zhou Ziyue a reassuring look and said softly, "Don't worry, just stay here for two more days. If he dares to blame you, I will teach him a lesson for you."

Qi Wuyou on the side also quickly agreed: "Yes, and I will help you teach him a lesson."

Seeing that it was almost time for lunch, the Queen Mother simply invited the two of them to stay and have lunch together.

During the meal, the Queen Mother asked Zhou Ziyue about his experiences in Qing Kingdom with concern. Zhou Ziyue selected some interesting things to tell the Queen Mother. Qi Wuyou, who was standing next to him, also listened with great interest and laughed from time to time.

After lunch, Zhou Ziyue originally planned to chat with Qi Wuyou for a while, but the sudden imperial edict interrupted them.

It turned out that Xuan Yelan sent Liu He to urge Zhou Ziyue to come because she had not returned for a long time.

Liu He glanced at the Queen Mother and the Empress's faces and said cautiously, "His Majesty said that he still has something to explain to Miss Zhou, so..."

The Queen Mother took the handkerchief handed over by Aunt Yao, wiped her mouth, and said slowly: "What? Is there no one left in Xuan State? Do we want Ziyue, a girl, to run back and forth?"

Zhou Ziyue knew that this matter was serious. Although she didn't want to go to the imperial study and face Xuan Yelan's ugly face, she still pulled the queen mother and explained: "Queen Mother, this is your majesty's appreciation, and it is also my blessing. I want to be loyal to the country."

When the Queen Mother heard Zhou Ziyue say this, her expression eased a lot. Liu He also secretly breathed a sigh of relief and gave Zhou Ziyue a grateful look.

Zhou Ziyue bowed to the Queen Mother and Qi Wuyou, then followed Liu He out of Yongshou Palace and headed for the imperial study.

Xuan Yelan frowned and looked at Zhou Ziyue who was full of resentment, and the expression on his face was very ugly.

Could this guy have already complained to the Queen Mother and An An? What should I do?

"You should go back." Xuan Yelan said unhappily.

The affairs of Qing Kingdom are of great importance. If something hadn’t happened, Zhou Ziyue would never have been able to come back from Qing Kingdom.

When Zhou Ziyue heard this, her eyes widened with disbelief: "I rushed to the imperial capital last night, and after entering the imperial capital, I went straight to the palace to look for you without even seeing my parents!"

Xuan Yelan looked at her awkwardly. If he let her leave like this, it would seem that he, as the emperor, was not being very kind.

So he softened his tone and said, "I didn't tell you to leave right away!"

Zhou Ziyue's eyes lit up and she asked excitedly, "Really?" She knew that Xuan Yelan, the seemingly heartless emperor, actually still had a little conscience.

"I can't take back my words." Xuan Yelan nodded slightly, "But don't forget your mission on this trip."

"Got it!" Zhou Ziyue's voice changed with excitement, "I will definitely complete the task successfully!"

She hopped away like a happy little bird, leaving Xuan Yelan with a joyful back.

Xuan Yelan stared at her receding figure, sighed softly, and an indescribable emotion surged in his heart.

After all, they are brothers and sisters who grew up together. Now Lu Yue is far away in Qi State, Li Han is traveling all over the world, and even Zhou Ziyue was ordered by him to go to Qi State. Lu Yu is the only brother left by his side.
