In the East Palace, Qi Xiuyao was carving wood in a room. The rest of the room was already filled with various carved small objects.
These are the birthday and wedding gifts he prepared for Ah Yue.
Thinking that in less than two months, Ah Yue would completely comfort him, Qi Xiuyao's face was filled with a satisfied smile.
"Knock knock knock──"
"Your Highness, General Yu is here. He came to look for the Crown Princess, but the Crown Princess did not come to the palace today."
People in the East Palace have already regarded Yu Shuyue as the Crown Princess, and the names they use to call her in the East Palace have changed.
Hua An's voice sounded outside the door, and the smile on Qi Xiuyao's face disappeared instantly, his face became gloomy, and he put down the knife in his hand.
Hua An only felt a strong wind blowing by. When he looked again, there was no one in the room, leaving only the shaking door panel to prove that Qi Xiuyao had indeed left.
"What's wrong with Ah Yue?"
Qi Xiuyao arrived at the main hall and asked hurriedly before he even stopped.
"Ah Yue went out with Shaoyao in the morning and hasn't returned yet. I haven't sent anyone to send a message back home. I thought she was in the East Palace, so I wanted to come and pick her up."
Their wedding was approaching and it was not advisable to meet for too long. The more Yu Heng heard from his father, he came to take her back to his home.
Who knows that Ah Yue is not in the East Palace at all.
Previously, Qi Xiuyao sent people to secretly protect Yu Shuyue, but later he withdrew them because Ah Yue was not happy.
So now that he suddenly heard the news that she was missing, the violent factor in Qi Xiuyao's body could no longer be suppressed.
"Shadow One."
"My subordinate is here."
Hearing his master's suppressed angry tone, Ying Yi's lips under the mask tightened and his body tensed.
It's been a long time since I've seen my master so angry.
"Even if we turn the entire Shangjing City upside down, we still have to find Ah Yue for Gu."
"yes."
Ying Yi took the order and quickly retreated.
"Your Highness, don't worry, I may know who has Ah Yue in his hands."
Yu Hengyue suddenly remembered what he told Ah Yue about Liu Ruoxi yesterday. According to her temper, she would definitely ask everything about it and finally break up everything.
"Liu Ruoxi."
Qi Xiuyao shouted the name word by word, his voice was as if it had been tempered by ice, making people shudder.
When Yu Shuyue regained consciousness again, she found herself locked in a small closed room.
The room was surrounded by walls and had no doors. There was only a small window on one wall, but it was all boarded up.
"Shaoyao, wake up."
Yu Shuyue looked around and couldn't find a way out for the time being. She shook Shaoyao who was still unconscious on the ground to wake up.
"Um, miss, where are we?"
Peony is still out of shape.
Yu Shuyue briefly told her what Liu Ruoxi said in the photo, and then briefly explained the situation in front of her.
"I didn't expect Miss Liu to be such a person. Don't be sad, Miss. Miss Liu is not worth it."
Shaoyao didn't expect that Liu Ruoxi would lie to her own lady, so she quickly comforted her.
"I'm fine. Just talk less and save some energy. I don't know what she wants to do yet, and I don't know if my brother and His Highness can find us."
Ever since she learned Liu Ruoxi's true identity from her brother, Yu Shuyue was so sad that she couldn't eat anything. She didn't eat anything yesterday and came to look for Liu Ruoxi early today.
After drinking half a cup of tea when she was in Liu Mansion, Yu Shuyue could be said to have not even seen a drop of water.
At this time, the annoyance and sadness in my heart have subsided, and the hunger has crept up.
"Miss, I have brought some cakes with you. Please fill your stomach quickly."
Shaoyao happily touched her arms, but there was nothing.
"Hey, that's not right. I saw that the lady has not eaten for a long time, so she took the cakes with her. How could it be missing?"
Shaoyao almost cried when she couldn't find any pastries.
Yu Shu Yuebai was overjoyed, but seeing the little maid looking about to cry, she endured the discomfort caused by hunger to comfort her.
"Perhaps they searched me and took me away. I didn't expect Liu Ruoxi to be so cruel. She said she wouldn't hurt me before, but she really didn't do anything to me. She just wanted to starve me to death."
Yu Shuyue was furious, Liu Ruoxi knew clearly that she couldn't bear the hunger, yet she actually came up with such a vicious plan.
There is really no mercy left!
Yu Shuyue had wronged Liu Ruoxi. She didn't dare to face her now, so she asked her servants to bring her delicious food.
But who would have known that the maid was also the Queen's confidant and was directly taking orders from the Queen.
Empress Ning Rong now hated Qi Xiuyao to the core, and of course she wanted to torture Yu Shuyue to take revenge on Qi Xiuyao.
If she hadn't been able to leave now, she would have come to torture Yu Shuyue herself.
Yu Shuyue didn't know how long she had been locked up, but she knew through the moonlight coming in through the narrow window that it was already night.
She had not eaten for a day and a night, and her stomach was already cramping slightly from hunger. Moreover, as night fell, the temperature was still very low in the spring night.
The walls of the room were empty, and she was so cold that she could only hug Shaoyao to keep warm.
Just when she thought she was either starving to death or freezing to death, there was a noise outside.
She immediately became alert.
"Boom boom boom——"
One of the walls slowly moved away, and dim candlelight shone in.
"Cousin, come with me quickly."
The visitor was neither Liu Ruoxi nor Queen Ningrong, but Yu Xi, who had only had a relationship with Yu Shuyue.
"You? Yu──"
Yu Shuyue was so hungry that she couldn't remember her name.
"Cousin, I'm Yu Xi. It's too late to explain at this moment. I won't be able to take you with you when the Queen comes later. Please follow me first and talk as we go."
Although Yu Shuyue had many questions in her mind, it was obvious that now was not the time to ask questions, so she was helped out of the secret room by Yu Xi and Shaoyao.
She followed Yu Xi's twists and turns, and finally walked out of the secret passage and arrived at a back garden.
Looking at this familiar back garden, it turned out to be the original family of the Yu Mansion.
Only then did she suddenly remember that her second uncle was from King Jin.
"Shu Yue doesn't have to think too much. I'm not anyone's friend. I just don't want to get into trouble. After all, if His Highness the Crown Prince goes crazy, it would be really terrible."
Mentioning Qi Xiuyao, fear flashed in Yu Xi's eyes.
Yu Shuyue gave her an inquiring look, but it was obvious that Yu Xi didn't want to say anything more, so he took her directly past the servants and guards in the mansion and sent her out through the back door.
Seeing Yu Shuyue running into the prince and others as soon as she left the back door, Yu Xi patted her chest and sighed deeply, she finally felt relieved.
Yu Xi had a long dream, in which her father did not love her and was suppressed by her mistress. She often thought about revenge and went back.
Then one day the prince, who had been in a wheelchair all year round, walked into her house and killed everyone, including her.
Just to find her cousin, Yu Shuyue, who was hidden by the queen in her house. This chapter has been completed!
