Ningshou Palace.

After listening to Xia Yuling's story about the entire Huaizhou incident, the Empress Dowager did not respond immediately. She just tapped the desk with her fingertips, and a hint of sorrow appeared on her eyebrows.

After a long time, I saw Xia Yuling standing there well and waiting for her to speak, and suddenly sighed in my heart:

"This kid..."

"After all, I still lack some of the male nature..."

"Forget it, for nothing, I should be satisfied if I can have such a result. I am too extravagant and a little greedy..."

On the other hand, Xia Yuling, who was opposite, looked at her grandmother with clear eyes carefully. After seeing her shaking her head, she immediately withdrew her gaze. At the same time, she knew that she lowered her little head to her toes, and began to think randomly:

"Grandma Emperor will scold me later..."

"But I really don't want to compete with my brothers for that position..."

"Forget it, just scold me, and I won't lose a piece of meat..."

"Shi Ling." Suddenly, the Queen Mother's yelled, interrupting all her thoughts.

"Grandma Emperor!"

Hearing the sound, he looked up quickly.

"Okay, I should understand. I have already understood it clearly. You don't have to continue to worry about being scared here. Go and play, Yuling girl."

The first time after experiencing wars between the two countries and the death of their son, the Empress Dowager sincerely showed a smile from the bottom of her heart.

"Thank you, Grandma Huang!"

As soon as he heard the words, Xia Yuling's little face, which seemed a little worried, finally stretched out, and a pure joy appeared on her beautiful face.

"Xiaobai, let's go~" He yelled softly at Su Bai who was almost asleep beside him. After shouting, Xia Yuling bowed to the Empress Dowager again, and then turned around and left.

“Meow~”

"It's finally over."

Opening his eyes as he was sleeping, Su Bai followed Xia Yuling and walked out of the hall.

Wait for one person and one cat to walk to the door...

"Girl, if you have time in the future, remember to come and accompany grandma more..."

The Empress Dowager's instructions were filled with family affection, which caused the figures of both to stagnate instantly.

"Um!"

Xia Yuling did not turn around, but the emotions she wanted to express in her response voice were all reflected...

After a moment.

Walking on the palace road to Yongyi Palace, Xia Yuling's joy on her face could not be dispelled.

Seeing this, Su Bai smiled silently.

Although he knew that some of the empress dowager's words just now had nothing to do with family affection, as long as no one pointed it out, it would be harmless.

"Let's touch less on the dark side, and people can live a more relaxed life..."

......

It is almost noon.

“…”

"That's it, after my elder brother and his team arrived at the Mansion, I came back..."

In Yongyi Palace, Concubine Ya looked at Xia Yuling in front of her with her eyes and danced to herself and told her about her experience of going to Huaizhou.

After she finished speaking, as a loyal listener, she asked questions she had always wanted to know:

"Yu Ling, you haven't said yet, who took you to Huaizhou..."

"Is it the golden light that was above Jingzhao Mansion that night?"

"Ah..." Xia Yuling was speechless as soon as she heard the words.

Because she remembered that when she was in Ningshou Palace before, the Empress Dowager had never asked her how she went to Huaizhou.

But it is no longer a secret that I have been missing for nearly a week in the palace...

"It's over, I just want to explain what happened after I left, but I forgot about it..."

"Xiaobai! What should I do?"

As he thought about it, Xia Yuling quietly touched Su Bai beside him with his fingers.

"I definitely don't doubt this silly girl. If my identity is exposed one day, she will definitely be the one who accidentally lets me go..."

Su Bai, who was hinted, was completely unmoved and chose to continue pretending to be asleep...

Without getting a response, Xia Yuling could only hold up a smile and preached to Concubine Ya with a stuttering tone:

"this..."

"that..."

Seeing this, Concubine Ya smiled and said softly:

"Okay, I won't tease you anymore."

"Silly girl, but you have to remember that everyone has secrets that they don't want to reveal. This is not a bad thing, but you have to think about how to firmly keep your secrets. Do you understand?"

“Something…”

"Even if a person is close, he cannot be known. This is not because he does not trust the other person, but because of the common feelings in the world that are unavoidable."

“…”

Upon hearing this, Xia Yuling nodded slowly...

......

In the afternoon, Xia Yuling and Su Bai, who visited Concubine Wanya from Yongyi Palace, returned to Fengyang Pavilion, but were surprised to find...

"Huh?! What about the three of Xiao Hei..."

After scanning the circle, Xia Yuling did not see the black cat Yanyan and the other two at all, and then hurriedly looked at Su Bai beside him.

"Meow~" Su Bai shook his head slowly, indicating that he didn't know.

He really doesn't know where Yanyan and the others went...

"The remaining aura is a little light, and I should have had some time to leave, but where can they go during this period of time?"

The power of the divine thoughts quietly released, and after she had covered the entire imperial palace and even the back mountain, Su Bai still gained nothing.

The petite brow frowned slightly, and I couldn't help but think of what Yanyan told him some time ago...

“Can you…?!”

"I've only had less than a day of rest, and I've got some trouble coming to the door again?"

Buzz...

In the blue pupils, golden light flashed slightly. Su Bai used the demonic energy to wrap the entire Fengyang Pavilion and the surrounding areas first. Once there was any abnormal situation, he could know it as soon as possible.

......

On the other side, outside Jingzhao Mansion.

"Sister Qingyan..."

"Fifth mother-in-law..."

Tick.

Black cat Yanyan looked at the familiar figure that had been missing in front of him, but the sad tears could not stop falling onto the soil...

"Little Smoke..."

The beautiful eyes of the woman in black also showed endless sorrow.

"Sister Yanyan..." Next to him, Silk and Kizaru didn't know what to say.

Both of them were entrusted to the fifth grandma of the Jiutail Tmall clan by their respective elders, and then entrusted to the Black Cat Yanyan by the fifth grandma. The three of them fled to Daxia all the way and had already formed a deep friendship.

Seeing this scene at this time, they felt extremely uncomfortable...

"Xiaoyan, where is the emperor-level bloodline you mentioned in the information before?"

In the void beside him, the figure of the man in black slowly appeared. He had been alert to all directions to avoid accidents. Seeing that everyone had arrived, he wanted to ask.

"Blood Killing Brother..."

Black cat Yanyan saw the man, and a hint of comfort appeared in his sad eyes, at least...

Their Nine-tailed Tmall clan, the Imperial Blood lineage and the Dao Guardian lineage have not been completely cut off.

"Xiaoyan, the time left for us is actually not very abundant. We need to leave here as soon as possible and hide in a more remote place. What you need to do now is to take us to meet with the emperor's bloodline first, and then we set off together!"

The man in black spoke quickly, and he hid his personal emotions as much as possible in his heart.

"this..."

Hearing the words, the black cat Yanyan showed a hint of disgrace.

It is because, with its understanding of Su Bai, it seems that no one can persuade him to leave here...
