The Prince Wants to Assassinate Me Every Day-Chapter 824 - 408: An Youyou’s Accidental Misadventure (Third Update)
An Youyou also sized up the girl in front of her, feeling that she wasn’t bad.
She was quite friendly.
The girl smiled slightly and quickly introduced herself, "Hello, my name is Anqi."
"You have the surname An too?" An Youyou was surprised, "I’m called An Youyou."
"No," Anqi smiled slightly, naturally calmer than An Youyou, and said, "I naturally follow my father’s surname. I am Xiao Anqi, you can call me Sister Anqi, I am six years old this year."
"I am four years old this year," An Youyou replied.
"If you ever feel uncomfortable in the Imperial Palace or are scared alone, feel free to send someone to find me. I live in the palace nearby," Anqi said sincerely, "I’m very happy that Father brought me a little sister back."
"Uh..." An Youyou was still a bit uneasy about Anqi’s overenthusiasm.
After all, she was just here temporarily.
In a few days, her mommy would take her away.
"I can’t talk to you much longer. My teacher is coming to teach me, I have to go," Anqi seemed a bit rushed.
With that, she left without delay.
An Youyou looked at Xiao Anqi’s back and frowned slightly.
So the handsome bad guy already has a daughter.
Even having a daughter, he came to kidnap her, how excessive!
An Youyou murmured and got out of bed, then had breakfast. Finding it rather boring to stay in the palace, she started skipping and jumping towards the Imperial Palace.
It’s really huge.
It feels larger than the palace she saw upon arrival.
It seems like her little legs couldn’t even cover it in a day.
Let alone, escape from it.
An Youyou felt a bit disappointed.
But her little legs didn’t stop, kept moving forward.
"Princess, slow down, slow down," the palace maids and eunuchs chased behind her.
Who would have thought a four-year-old child, with legs so short, could run so fast?
Not tired at all?!
Several palace maids and eunuchs were out of breath from chasing her.
The Imperial Palace became quite lively with An Youyou’s arrival.
From afar.
Bai Mowan stepped out of her palace and strolled within the Imperial Palace.
Last night’s events kept her bothered, leading to a sleepless night. Not wanting to drive herself crazy, she went for a walk after breakfast.
Then she heard the laughter and loud noises within the Palace.
"Who is this ahead?" Bai Mowan, already in a bad mood, felt even worse seeing the noisy crowd.
Thinking it couldn’t be Xiao Anqi.
Xiao Anqi was always well-behaved and quiet.
This is why, for these years, even though she knew Xiao Anqi was Ye Qichi’s adopted child, she was still okay with her. After all, Xiao Anqi posed no conflict of interests, allowing her to perform well in front of Xiao Jinxing, why not?
"Reporting to the Lady, it’s the little princess brought back by the Emperor yesterday," the palace maid promptly replied.
Bai Mowan glanced several times.
Too far to see clearly.
She naturally didn’t feel like meeting this little girl now.
Coldly and indifferently, she remarked, "A wild girl from the people, truly undisciplined."
"Should I go and greet her?" the palace maid asked.
"Forget it, just let the wild girl be," Bai Mowan preferred not to dwell on it.
Also thinking that, she promised Xiao Jinxing last night not to trouble a little girl. If she reprimanded her today, Xiao Jinxing might be more displeased with her.
In her heart, she thought too, that Xiao Jinxing’s special mention of the little girl yesterday was probably knowing she was unruly.
She’s not so foolish to directly offend Xiao Jinxing.
Though she was rejected by Xiao Jinxing last night, she had calmed herself down.
Anyway, Ye Qichi was dead.
She has plenty of time to slowly wear down Xiao Jinxing.
She doesn’t believe she couldn’t melt Xiao Jinxing’s icy demeanor!
...
An Youyou kept running within the Imperial Palace.
From a young age, she was always chased like this.
Of course, it was her running away to play being chased by servants, running faster and faster, her stamina better and better, mostly servants couldn’t catch up to her, she cleverly hid from them, and smoothly escaped to play.
She glanced back at the palace maids and eunuchs unable to catch up with her, then happily continued running.
Knowing neither the path nor direction, anyway, she felt she wouldn’t get lost.
She ran quickly.
Not noticing that the current place differed from elsewhere.
Meanwhile, the palace maids and eunuchs were nearly fainted from fear.
That’s the former court.
Where the Emperor holds court sessions.
It’s over, it’s over.
Their lives might be at stake.
The palace maids and eunuchs dared not enter the former court; there were rules.
Without the Emperor’s permission, the concubines and palace maids and eunuchs were forbidden from stepping into the former court, nor were the ministers allowed into the inner palace.
Presently, they could only watch helplessly as the little princess ran towards the great hall of the former court.
No matter how they called her from behind, she didn’t hear, and seemed very excited.
It seemed she loved this game of chase.
An Youyou panted, her tiny legs already crossed into a palace.
Inside were many people.
Occupying two columns respectively.
Yet it was so quiet despite the crowd.
Everyone bowed facing the person seated on the Dragon Throne in the grand hall.
Her sudden appearance clearly startled everyone.
All eyes uniformly turned to her.
Even someone usually thick-skinned at this moment felt a bit embarrassed.
She seemed to have come to a place where she shouldn’t be.
What to do?
Run, or not run, or run?
At that moment, she saw the bad handsome guy—no no no, the Emperor stepping down from the Dragon Throne.
All the civil and military officials dared not even breathe.
Not knowing what background this little girl had.
Couldn’t discern the Emperor’s expression now.
In the grand hall, the Emperor usually never showed a smile, maintaining formidable power.
An Youyou watched as the Emperor walked step by step towards her.
Then, in front of all the civil and military officials, squatting down, "Did you miss me?"
So that’s why she ran to find him?!
An Youyou’s lively eyes turned, immediately hugged Xiao Jinxing’s neck, "Father, I’m scared alone."
Feign weakness first, feign weakness.
Her mommy said don’t confront head-on.
Xiao Jinxing laughed.
Someone who never laughed in the grand hall, at this moment, smiled like the spring breeze.
All the civil and military officials were dumbfounded.
Xiao Jinxing lifted An Youyou, directly carried her back to the throne, and let her sit on his knee.
The civil and military officials were even more stunned.
It’s known that apart from the Emperor, no one is allowed to sit on the Dragon Throne.
Yet the Emperor carelessly embraced the little girl and sat her upon it.
"I have matters today, any issues unraised by ministers should be submitted through memorials. I will reply to you all tomorrow, court dismissed!" Finishing this.
Xiao Jinxing carried An Youyou and left the grand hall directly.
All the officials knelt, "Farewell to the Emperor, Long live, long live, long long live!"
