Chapter 589: Entering the Palace

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Yu Niaoniao brought a large group of people to the courtyard outside the city.

The servants were about to unload the luggage from the carriage when Yu Niaoniao stopped them.

“This luggage stays in the carriage. We don’t have to move it for the time being. ”

Granny Xiu Yan did not understand and could not help but remind her.

“It’s dark now. We have to settle down quickly. Otherwise, we won’t have anywhere to rest tonight.”

Yu Niaoniao instructed the servants, “Chase the carriage to the backyard first.”

After everyone left, Yu Niaoniao brought Granny Xiu Yan, Lo Pingsha, Ling Hai, and the others into the courtyard through the main door.

The courtyard was taken care of all year round. Even though no one had lived there for a long time, it was still orderly.

After Ling Hai closed the door, Yu Niaoniao spoke to them.

“You’re leaving tonight. ”

Granny Xiu Yan looked puzzled. “Where are we going?”

Yu Niaoniao explained quickly.

“The Empress Dowager’s birthday is in six days. At that time, I’m going to do something big. You don’t have to know what it is. The less you Imow, the better. Now, set off for Liaodong quickly. If you’re fast enough, you might be able to catch up to Duke Lang’s team.”

Although she had promised Xiao Juan to temporarily give up on the plan to expose Empress Dowager Deng,

But in fact, she had already decided to implement her plan on the Empress Dowager’s birthday.

She wanted to expose the fact that the old emperor was not of royal blood in front of the civil and military officials and foreign envoys. She wanted to make the murderer pay the price!

This matter was very dangerous. If she was not careful, she would be crushed.

Initially, she did not plan to let Xiao Juan get involved, but because she knew Xiao Juan’s personality very well, it was impossible for him to let her take the risk alone, so she did not dare to mention this.

Now that he had gone to Liaodong, this could not be better for her.

When she said that she wanted to stay in the courtyard for a while, she actually wanted to find an excuse to bring everyone from the Langjun Imperial Palace out of the city.

When she settled everyone in the Langjun Imperial Palace, she could do what she wanted without any worries.

Granny Xiu Yan did not know what she was going to do, but Lo Pingsha and Ling Hai could roughly guess her thoughts.

Lo Pingsha spoke firmly.

“Whatever you’re going to do, we can’t leave you alone!”

Ling Hai nodded in agreement. “Yes!”

Granny Xiu Yan looked from one to the other. “What exactly do you want to do? Can you make yourself clear?”

Yu Niaoniao said earnestly, “It’s not what you think.”

“On the one hand, I asked you to leave first because I didn’t want to implicate the innocent. There are so many people in the Langjun Imperial Palace. Everyone was born and raised by their parents. There was no need to risk their lives for me alone.”

“On the other hand, it was to leave me an escape route. If anything happens to my plan, you can still pick me up.”

“If you all stay here, you’ll easily be captured. At that time, there won’t even be anyone to help deliver the message.”

Lo Pingsha said, “Can’t you wait until Duke Lang returns?”

Yu Niaoniao shook her head. “No, his current situation is very sensitive. If he’s implicated by me again, he’ll probably lose his life.”

Lo Pingsha said, “But what if something happens to you? What will Duke Lang do? Have you thought about his feelings?”

Yu Niaoniao closed her eyes and tried her best to suppress the indescribable bitterness in her heart.

“I’ll try my best to come back alive. If… if I really can’t live, let him forget me.”

Lo Pingsha asked, “If it were you, could you forget?” Yu Niaoniao did not answer the question. “Time can dilute everything.”

Lo Pingsha could not help but say something offensive.

“You’re being selfish.”

Yu Niaoniao replied self-destructively, “That’s right. I’m that selfish. Leave quickly while there are fewer people outside when it’s dark.”

Lo Pingsha said, “I don’t know what others think, but I’m not leaving.”

Yu Niaoniao was about to say something when she suddenly heard a knock on the door.

Bang, bang, bang!

The crisp sound was exceptionally clear in the night.

Ling Hai went forward to open the door and saw a team of Sky Wolf Guards standing outside. The leader was Wei Liao, whom she had not seen for a long time.

Wei Liao was wearing the official uniform of a crimson general and had two sabers at his waist. His posture was straight.

The two Sky Wolf Guards behind him held torches.

The bright firelight shone on his face, making his originally flirtatious eyes look heroic.

He asked Ling Hai.

“Where’s your Princess Consort?”

Ling Hai asked, “Why are you looking for our Princess Consort?”

Wei Liao said slowly, “I’m under the emperor’s orders to invite the Princess Consort to the palace for questioning. I hope she can follow me to the palace immediately.”

When Ling Hai heard that it was the emperor’s decree, he did not dare to delay and hurriedly said.

“Please wait a moment. I’ll inform the Princess Consort now.”

Wei Liao reminded him, “Hurry up. Don’t let the emperor wait. By the way, the emperor specially instructed that only the Princess Consort should enter the palace. Let her know what to do.”

Actually, there was no need to say that last sentence.

But he said it anyway.

As for the various reasons, he already knew them in his heart.

During the time Wei Liao left the Imperial Capital, he had thought a lot. At first, he would try his best to find an excuse for himself, wanting to prove that it was impossible for him to like Yu Niaoniao at all.

However, as time passed, he realized that he could not help but think about things related to Yu Niaoniao.

The woman kept appearing in his mind, like a ghost.

He could not shake it off. In the end, he could only give up and accept his fate.

Ha, didn’t he just take a fancy to a married woman?

It was not a big deal.

Anyway, no one else knew about this. As long as he hid it well, he would not be embarrassed.

Ling Hai hurriedly turned around to look for the Princess Consort and told her about what Wei Liao said.

After Yu Niaoniao heard this, she had a very bad feeling.

It was already so late, but the emperor suddenly summoned her to the palace and specially asked her not to bring anyone with her. It must not be anything good.

However, Wei Liao had already come looking for her with his men. She had no choice but to go.

Yu Niaoniao emphasized.

“Little Lo, after I leave, leave through the back door immediately with your men and chase after Duke Lang overnight.”

Lo Pingsha was naturally unwilling.

He wanted to accompany the Princess Consort to the palace, but the emperor had instructed her not to bring anyone.

He was conflicted. What should he do?!

Yu Niaoniao went forward and hugged Granny Xiu Yan; her heart was filled with reluctance.

“Nanny, you have to take good care of yourself. If we’re fated in the future, we might meet again.”

Granny Xiu Yan asked anxiously, “What exactly do you want to do? Why are you sending us all away? Are you in danger?”

Yu Niaoniao let go of her and took a step back.

“That’s right. I might encounter danger when I enter the palace this time, so please catch up to Duke Lang as soon as possible and tell him about this.”

In Granny Xiu Yan’s heart, she had always felt that Xiao Juan was extremely powerful.

Any problem could be solved as long as Xiao Juan was found.

Therefore, she did not think too much about it and hurriedly replied, “Don’t worry, we’ll definitely find Duke Lang as soon as possible and get him to save you!”
