"Your Highness, what should we do?" Bai Xiyue asked.
Qin Jinhao’s mouth curled into a cold and cruel smile. "You go back first, I’ll handle this matter."
Not getting an answer from Qin Jinhao left Bai Xiyue a bit disappointed, but she didn’t dare to defy him. She could only hurriedly take her leave. On this trip, she didn’t hear a single gentle word from Prince Rui, which made her feel a vague sense of grievance.
Qin Jinhao dared to boldly have Bai Xiyue speak in the main hall because he calculated that Qin Yiyao would not tidy up so quickly.
However, he did not know that Qin Yiyao did not wash up at all; she simply changed into another set of clothes and ca back.
Coincidentally, she overheard the news outside the door about Mu Qingge going to Yi City on a risky adventure.
Her face instantly changed. Without having ti to bid farewell to her brother, she left Prince Rui Mansion with her entourage. On one hand, she sent people to investigate everything that had recently happened in Luodu, and on the other, she sent people to search for Mu Qingge’s whereabouts.
As for herself, she headed outside the city, intending to intercept Mu Qingge on the road leaving Luodu to prevent her from acting impulsively.
...
Leaving Luodu, on the official road leading to Yi City, Qin Yiyao rode on horseback, gazing into the distance.
Before long, dust rose in the distance, accompanied by the sound of galloping hooves, sweeping toward them like a storm.
"Princess, soone is coming! Could it be the young lord?" Qin Yiyao’s maid craned her neck to look.
Could it be him?
Qin Yiyao asked herself in her heart.
During the gallop, Mu Qingge, who was at the forefront, saw the graceful figure standing on the small hillside by the side of the road from a distance.
However, due to the distance being too great, she couldn’t see who it was.
As she gradually approached, she realized it was Princess Changle, her fiancée, Qin Yiyao.
"Whoa—!" She pulled the reins, and the galloping hooves stomped continuously in place.
Mu Qingge looked at Qin Yiyao and asked, "Why is the Princess here?"
She, clad in a flamboyant red dress, rode on a tall black horse, exuding such arrogance and wildness. Her unparalleled beauty, seemingly more mature and exquisite, from not eting for a long ti.
Qin Yiyao looked at her, montarily forgetting her purpose for coming.
Upon hearing Mu Qingge’s question, she rode over and directly asked, "Are you going to Yi City?" As she spoke, she raised her eyes to look behind Mu Qingge, the sight of several hundred people wearing only light armor surprised her and simultaneously made her worry for Mu Qingge’s safety.
"How did the Princess know?" Mu Qingge squinted dangerously.
Qin Yiyao bit her lip and said, "When Bai Xiyue ca to Prince Rui Mansion, I happened to be with my imperial brother."
She did not directly answer Mu Qingge’s question, but cleverly explained everything with one sentence.
Bai Xiyue, Qin Jinhao?
A cold glimr erged from Mu Qingge’s eyes. It seems these two really tead up.
But how did Bai Xiyue find out about her going to Yi City? Did her aunt say? That’s unlikely, her aunt would never tell Bai Xiyue such a thing.
However, now is not the ti to pursue the answer to this question.
Mu Qingge restrained the coldness in her eyes and looked at Qin Yiyao, saying, "Then why did the Princess appear here..."
"You cannot go, it’s too dangerous," Qin Yiyao stated her purpose for coming. During the ti she was waiting, the people she had sent out had already brought back news.
A large-scale beast tide not seen in a hundred years. If Mu Qingge goes now, wouldn’t she be courting death?
Even though Mu Xiong is there, it cannot guarantee Mu Qingge’s safety!
"The Princess is overthinking. I’m rely going to see my grandfather; there’s nothing dangerous about it. Moreover, in Yi City, there are nearly five hundred thousand troops of the Mu Family guarding it," Mu Qingge said.
