Ye Yining looked at the simple decoration in the house and hugged her mother in discomfort.
"I miss my mother!"
Mrs. Ye playfully stroked her daughter's cold face and said, "Come in and warm yourself up."
As she said that, she took another look behind her.
Ye Yining knew what her mother was looking at and hurriedly explained, "Mom, King Ji didn't come here. He sent Xingfu and Yan Fan to send me here."
Although Mrs. Ye didn't know how Prince Ji could trust Ning'er to come to the imperial mausoleum, she didn't ask any more questions at the moment.
Xingfu came in, said hello to Mrs. Ye, and went out first.
Yan Fan felt that it was not good for him to go in, so he had to stay outside with Xingfu to enjoy the cold wind.
Fortunately, he was in good health and didn't feel really cold.
Mrs. Ye took her daughter and looked left and right for a long time before she felt relieved.
"Mom will be relieved if Prince Ji can take good care of you! Your father will be back later."
Ye Yining took off her cloak, leaned her head against her mother, and hugged her arm happily.
"Mom, I just met dad. Why did you move here?"
Mrs. Ye put her daughter's cold little hands in her hands and rubbed them, and explained in a low voice: "The house we lived in collapsed a few days ago. After your father reported it, the new emperor was unwilling to send anyone to rebuild it. Your father transferred
Without supplies and manpower to rebuild, people moved to live in the cave of the imperial mausoleum..."
She built a small house here because of the flying letter and Tuxing Lingzhai sent by Ning'er.
Not to mention, this house has constant temperature all year round and is not cold at all, which is much better than living in a cave.
When Ye Yining heard this, she was furious, "Since the new emperor doesn't care about the affairs of the imperial mausoleum, why do you want dad and the others to patrol this late at night?"
Mrs. Ye patted her daughter's hand and comforted her softly: "I heard from your father that their inspection was a fake. The real purpose was to find the Demonic Sealing Pillar in the Northern Han Country. I heard that there was also a magic sealing pillar in the Northern Han Country back then.
of the Demonic Pillar, but was buried in the imperial mausoleum..."
Ye Yining was stunned for a moment, "Looking for the Demon Sealing Pillar?"
Yes, all four countries have magic-sealing pillars.
She has seen the Demon-Sealing Pillars from Nanyin Kingdom and Eastern Chu Kingdom, and also knows that there are Demon-Sealing Pillars in Xiliang, but she has never seen them here in Beihan Kingdom.
Mrs. Ye sighed, "I heard that the new emperor and the imperial master sent people to look for the magic pillar. Did you see those red lights when you came?"
Ye Yining nodded, "I saw it, but I didn't look closely. What is that? Is it bright or not?"
Mrs. Ye said in a low voice: "Those things are said to be a kind of detector. Once someone finds the Demon Sealing Pillar, the Imperial Master will know... Your father now spends most of the day patrolling the imperial mausoleum."
Speaking of this, she suddenly stopped and looked at her daughter worriedly, "Ning'er, the new emperor didn't let you and King Ji return to the capital. It's not good for you to come back privately. Your father and I are fine, please wait a moment
Just go back to Hanluo City!"
Although she didn't want to let go of her daughter, she didn't want the new emperor to catch his daughter and King Ji.
"Mom, the new emperor asked King Ji to go to Dongchu Kingdom to attend the meeting of the Four Kingdoms, and they were also discussing the Demonic Pillar. I will come to see you before going to Dongchu, and I will leave in two days. I won't go anywhere these two days.
Go, no one will know."
Mrs. Ye breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Mom, I'll cook more delicious food for you these two days. Are you hungry now? Or should you take a rest first?"
As she said that, she stood up and wanted to see what food she could prepare for her daughter.
It was always dark now, and she couldn't tell the difference between day and night.
"Mom, I've prepared a lot of food for you to come over! Don't be busy!"
Ye Yining moved the things on the table next to her and asked the chef to make some delicious food and bring it to the table.
When Mrs. Ye saw that the food brought out by her daughter was still steaming, she smiled and said, "How many body temperature charms did you use to keep them warm?"
Ye Yining pursed her lips and smiled, "I didn't use the body warming charm. Don't feel bad, mother!"
As she said that, she took out two more nine-tailed sky gourds with space formation talismans engraved on them today and put them on the table.
"Mom, this gourd can hold water and keep it warm. You and dad can keep it for use."
Mrs. Ye nodded, not rejecting her daughter's filial piety.
While the mother and daughter were eating and chatting, General Ye came back feeling cold.
He was extremely happy to see his daughter and asked her about Hanluo City.
Ye Yining answered all questions, but when Han Luocheng encountered dangerous things several times, she automatically ignored them.
When General Ye knew that the reconstruction of Hanluo City was in order and had initial results, he felt relieved.
However, after knowing that his daughter and King Ji were going to Dong Chu, his heart became anxious again.
"Ning'er, you should be extra careful when you go to Dongchu, especially the Imperial Preceptor. I heard that the new emperor now listens to the Imperial Preceptor on many things..."
To put it bluntly, the new emperor is more like a puppet, and his voice in the palace is getting lower and lower day by day.
Moreover, the new emperor is not in good health now.
Ye Yining didn't want her parents to worry, so she said something to reassure them.
"Don't worry, dad. I know a lot of people from the same place as Imperial Master Feng Lie! They are all very powerful. The man named Yan Fan who sent me here today is also from the Spiritual Realm. I'll let him know later.
Come in and meet dad..."
General Ye listened to his daughter's story attentively, and felt comforted when he learned that his daughter had become friends with many capable people from the spiritual realm.
There are more capable people around His Royal Highness Prince Ji, and his daughter's safety is more guaranteed.
The family of three chatted for a long time and talked a lot.
Mrs. Ye felt that her mouth was dry after talking for too long, so she made a bed for her daughter and urged her to rest.
Before Ye Yining went to sleep, she opened the door and took a look outside.
Xingfu appeared at the door almost immediately, "Do you have any orders from the princess?"
Ye Yining whispered: "Where will you and Yan Fan stay at night? Do you want to come in and make do with each other in the living room?"
Facing the princess's thoughtfulness, Xingfu's eyes flashed with warmth, "Princess, please rest! I have a place to rest. Yan Fan has gone to the imperial mausoleum, don't worry about him."
Ye Yining nodded slightly, handed him two body warming charms, then closed the door and rested.
When Yan Fan went to the imperial mausoleum, he might also be looking for the Demonic Sealing Pillar.
I just hope he can find it!
…
The next day.
Ye Yining woke up and found that it was snowing outside the house.
The snow was falling heavily, and my mother was the only one cooking bird's nest porridge by the stove.
She rubbed her eyes, walked up and asked, "Mom, is dad going out again?"
Mrs. Ye turned around and handed her daughter a cup of warm ginger tea, "Your father has been out for an hour. He should be back later."
Ye Yining took a sip of tea before sitting down next to her mother.
The cabin is quite comfortable. There is a hanging lamp inside, so the light is pretty good.
As soon as I finished drinking the tea in my hand, there was a sudden knock on the door outside the house.
