Traveling through troubled times, he fled with his stepson

Chapter 215 Very discerning

Why did she, a new five-good young person from the new society, a weak woman who had never touched a sword or fought, have to go through all this?

Although everything is hopeless now, fortunately there is still a hope.

Now she can only pin her hopes on her archenemy and childhood sweetheart. She just hopes that the damn guy has also come through. After all, they fell in the bathroom together.

It doesn't make sense that she came through but the monster didn't come.

"Your Highness, everything is ready."

The girl who had been doing her hair spoke up. Xiao Yue remembered her name was Qingmei, and the girl standing next to Qingmei was Qinglan.

She is two of the princess's four personal maids.

It's pitiful. How could such a beautiful couple end up with such a tragic ending? Xiao Yue looked at the girl with sympathy.

Even though Qingmei was calm, she felt a little uneasy at the strange look in her eyes.

This prince's temperament is becoming more and more difficult to understand. He was wailing a while ago, and has been gloomy these past few days. He always looks at her with those obscure eyes.

Being so unpredictable, Qingmei planned to warn the other two when it was time to take over the shift after the banquet so that they would not make mistakes in front of His Highness.

"Walk."

After Xiao Yue finished speaking, she stood up and walked out.

Thinking about her being a chatterbox, she was now forced to say only one or two words, for fear that she would say too much and make mistakes, or her image would be ruined and people would suspect her and burn her to death.

The one leading Xiao Yue was walking steadily, but Qing Mei behind was a little overwhelmed and asked cautiously: "Your Highness, do you want to walk to Taihe Palace today?"

Xiao Yue turned around and saw a gorgeous sedan chair diagonally behind Qingmei, with eight people around her looking at her quietly.

My heart skipped a beat. "No, I want to take a walk today."

After saying that, he turned around and left. Qingmei and Qinglan behind him looked at each other and then followed him.

Half an hour later, Xiao Yue's cold expression began to crack. Why didn't anyone tell her that Fengyang Pavilion and Taihe Palace were so far apart?

Xiao Yue’s legs are sore from walking so much, why haven’t they arrived yet?

After finally seeing a small pavilion in front of her, Xiao Yue walked forward without hesitation.

It’s better to take a break now, otherwise you will be the one who suffers.

The Imperial Garden is a bit desolate nowadays, with most of the flowers not in full bloom. Only the plum blossoms on the plum trees planted nearby are blooming in the coolness.

The pavilion stands in the center of the garden and can be seen from any direction.

Because she was far away, Xiao Yue didn't see anyone in the pavilion. Only when she got closer did she realize that there were quite a few people.

But given her current status and position, it is usually others who avoid her, not her who avoids others.

Behind them are the two sisters Qingmei and Qinglan, neither of whom is easy to fool.

"Who's here?"

Qingmei stepped forward and asked loudly. After all, Xiao Yue didn't like having someone where she wanted to be.

"Welcome, Your Highness. May Your Highness be blessed with good health."

A group of people knelt on the ground. Xiao Yue frowned. She was still not used to this damn kneeling ceremony. She really wanted to help them up.

"Get up."

As she spoke, she sat down in a more secluded position in the pavilion. After she was seated, the people who were kneeling stood up.

Xiao Yue really wanted to adjust her sitting position, but was afraid that Qingmei would see it and make her suspicious, so she glanced at Qingmei.

Unexpectedly, Qingmei seemed to have received some strange message. She nodded at her and then shouted at the group of people: "The banquet is about to start, why are you still in the Imperial Garden?"

Xiao Yue: "..."

Girl, what look of mine made you do this?

"Your Highness, I just ran into an old friend here. I heard that the prince had been ill for the past few days and is now well. I just wanted to say hello."

A man stepped forward, wearing a crimson court robe, with a face as white as jade, and an aura of extraordinary coldness, especially his eyes, which, when staring at you closely, seemed to give you a sense of infinite chill.

Her temperament was so outstanding that Xiao Yue looked at her carefully. This look almost made Xiao Yue fall down.

"Duan Yunzheng?" Xiao Yue leaned forward and called out a name in disbelief.

"The minister is here."

The person opposite immediately bowed and saluted, and there was no scene of fellow villagers meeting each other with tears in their eyes.

Xiao Yue couldn't handle this.

Maybe it's because I look too different?

The anxious look and inquiring eyes on his face also made the people around him have different expressions.

Xiao Yue's mind brightened. In the vast China, it was so convenient to have a familiar code. I have been looking for several riddles these days, but I can't figure it out. Mr. Duan is very talented, why don't you give it a try? "

The woman sat there, the plum blossoms behind her were blooming too enthusiastically, making the woman in front of the plum blossoms look more beautiful than the flowers. Perhaps because the look in her eyes was different, Duan Yunzheng avoided her gaze.

"I am not worthy of your high talent. Please tell me, Your Highness. I will do my best to relieve your worries." Duan Yunzheng's answer was impeccable.

Xiao Yue then spoke up: "What's the next line of Palace Jade Wine?"

Duan Yunzheng: “…What?”

Duan Yunzheng was very confused, and his expression was natural, not like he would understand. But the evildoer rarely surfed the Internet, so it was normal that he didn't know.

Xiao Yue: "Odd changes but even remains the same?"

Duan Yunzheng: “…”

“Which company has the best mining technology?”

Duan Yunzheng: “…”

"Your Highness, please punish me. I have never heard of these words and I really don't understand." Duan Yunzheng's few words made Xiao Yue give up the idea that this man was her childhood friend.

But this person is really hard to offend. After all, he is the person the original body likes, and he is one of the male protagonists of this book.

Yes. There are two male protagonists in this book.

It’s that kind of book about socialist brotherhood.

She is the author of the suicide.

"Get up, it's okay. I just want to figure it out." Xiao Yue said.

But his eyes fell on the person behind Duan Yunzheng.

Xiao Yue was a little hesitant and didn't dare to say it out loud, because the person behind Duan Yunzheng had such outstanding temperament that even Duan Yunzheng was outshined.

With sword-like eyebrows, star-like eyes, and slightly pursed lips, those peach blossom eyes were full of affection for everyone, which made Xiao Yue's heart, which had never changed for thousands of years, moved.

Such an outstanding man, even surpassed Duan Yunzheng, the most handsome man in Beijing. In her book, there is only Chu Yi as the top.

"Your Highness, your servant Chu Yi greets you."

"Brother Chu, there's no need to be so polite. We are all one family." Xiao Yue spoke, and went over this sentence carefully in her mind. It was very consistent with her original identity.

Because in terms of seniority, Chu Yi is really her cousin.

But for some reason, Chu Yi's expression suddenly twisted, which made Xiao Yue's heart skip a beat. Could it be that... he said something wrong?

"Etiquette cannot be abandoned." Chu Yi said, and Duan Yunzheng continued: "Your Highness, if there is nothing else, we will withdraw."

Xiao Yue thought about it and realized that they were rushing to Taihe Palace, so she didn't want to stop them. Even though Duan Yunzheng looked like her childhood friend, he was not the person she knew.
