The empress dowager seemed to be deep in thought while Rong Fei looked at her. As for Imperial Concubine, she was still unconscious as she attacked the seafood dishes.

Leng Qiyue laughed, "I don't know what the seal says, but I feel that it's a pretty good decoration, so I gave it away as a gift."

Rong Fei asked anxiously, "Who did you give it to?"

Leng Qiyue pretended to recall something. After a moment, she said, "I don't remember. These past few days, I've given out many things and distributed them to the people in the palace. I forgot who it was." She sneered in her heart: "I'll let you guys check. There are so many people in the palace, you guys go search one by one. It would be weird if you can find them."

Rong Fei had a worried expression, but the empress dowager remained calm. Dongfang Haotian didn't say a word the entire time. Anxiety flashed through his deep eyes.

Leng Qiyue ignored them and continued to taste the seafood. She was pregnant, so she did not dare to eat too much.

When everyone was almost done eating, Dongfang Haotian announced the end of the banquet. Before the empress dowager left, she glanced at Leng Qiyue, a trace of doubt flashing through her eyes. Lin Fei wanted to say something, but the look in her eyes stopped her.

When she returned to Yixin Palace full of food and wine, she didn't know that a great catastrophe was about to befall her.

Even Leng Qiyue didn't expect that her unintentional words would make her regret it for the rest of her life …

The day when Princess Changle entered the palace drew closer and closer. The eunuchs and maids in the palace were also getting busier and busier. The most idle person was Leng Qiyue. The cats she was raising were getting fatter and fatter. The kittens had opened their eyes and were running around the floor. It could be considered a lively family.

Pei Zi Yun was still muttering to himself. He was lost in thought all day long, muttering to himself.

Xiao Die and Han Liu cleaned the Palace of Moonflower, occasionally sneaking in to bask in the sun with Leng Qiyue.

Little Shun Zi was the busiest. When he came, he instructed the eunuchs to fix this and that, and to make the Moon Palace look like a new place.

Finally, Princess Changle entered the palace, and the palanquin with yellow tassels was carried to the nearby Guanju Palace of Leng Qiyue. This Guan Jugong had always been living for the princess of the Xiao family, but only after the previous generation had been married off could the next generation of princesses live in it. This was the reason why a titled princess could only enter the palace after she was five years old. For example, the Xiao family had three sons, and any one of them could have a girl that was a princess. However, the mother of this princess must be the official wife. A concubine's birth could not even be counted as a concubine's birth, and her eldest son, the marquis, was no exception. Princess Changle's senior was her aunt, and she had been married off for many years. As a result, the Palace had been idle for a long time, and only now did it become lively.

The sedan chair landed on the ground, and no one came out for a long time. The maidservant Cailian, who was brought by the Princess from the Xiao family, came forward and said: "Your Highness, we have arrived at Guan Hu Palace."

Silence...

Cai Lian frowned, her voice slightly raised as she said, "Your Highness, please get off the palanquin."

There was still silence …

Cai Lian summoned up her courage and opened the curtain a crack to peek inside, but her expression changed drastically as she quickly opened the curtain and shouted, "Oh no! The princess is gone!"

The eunuchs and palace maids accompanying her immediately fell into a mess. They waited for a long time for Dongfang Haotian, who was in the Great Hall, to come and see the princess, so they could say: "Someone, go to Guanju Palace and see if she has finished changing."

The emperor was getting impatient from waiting. The officials below also started sweating and began speculating on the reason.

Not long after, the eunuch who went to the Guanju Palace reported, "Reporting to Your Majesty, Princess Changle is not in the sedan. She is currently searching."

"What?" Dongfang Haotian angrily slapped the table. How did these servants do things? She actually lost the princess.

He walked down from the Dragon Throne and strode towards the Guanju Palace, the civil and military officials following behind him in silence.

There was a sedan chair stopped in front of the gate of Guan Hu Palace. The guard of honor stood there neatly, and everyone's face revealed a look of anxiety. Someone saw Dongfang Haotian walking over from afar and whispered, "The emperor is here. Quick, receive him."

All of the eunuchs and maids knelt down in salute, shouting 'Long live'.

Dongfang Haotian glanced over coldly and said, "Where is Princess Changle?"

Cai Lian timidly said, "Reporting to your majesty, this servant personally helped the princess onto a palanquin. But now, the princess has actually disappeared."

Dongfang Haotian calmly asked: "Did anything happen during the journey?"

Cai Lian said, "Back to the emperor, when the sedan chair passed by the western gate, it met with esteemed wangfei's squadron. We servants only waited for a little while."

Dongfang Haotian's face sank, and he thought: "You're taking your consort out of the palace? "Today is the grand day to welcome Princess Changle into the palace, so why would she leave the palace without a reason?"

"Your majesty, your majesty, we've found the princess. She's with the imperial concubine at the Moonlight Palace." Dede ran over, panting.

Dongfang Haotian frowned and said, "Go to the Moon Flower Hall and inform the imperial concubine. Tell her to bring Princess Changle to Hongye Palace as soon as possible."

"This servant accepts the decree." Pity those old bones of his, he had to run away again.

Why would Princess Changle run to the Moon Palace? This had to be mentioned when two groups of people met at the west gate. "In the morning, she was invited by Rong Fei. They agreed to work together on a dance, and played the zither while Rong Fei danced.

After the two had finished their choreographing, Lin Fei suddenly barged in. She said that the empress dowager would summon her, and she'd follow. This was the beginning of her nightmare.

The empress dowager had never summoned her, but Lin Fei had acted on her own initiative and tied her up, then stuffed her into a sedan chair and sent her out of the palace. The couriers did not expect to meet the princess's troop in the west gate. The soldiers guarding the gate still had to inspect it. They remained in a stalemate for a while before they were allowed to pass. Princess Changle took advantage of the chaos to slip out of the sedan chair and slip away. All of the court ladies and eunuchs were watching the group of imperial concubines, and no one noticed the princess' escape.

Princess Changle was wandering around the palace. Perhaps it was fate, or perhaps it was fate. When she saw a black cat, she was lured to the Moonlight Palace.

When the palace eunuch saw Princess Changle, he asked, "Which official's child are you? This is the Imperial Concubine's sleeping quarters. You can't barge in recklessly, hurry up and go back. "

Princess Changle didn't want to reveal her identity and said smilingly, "This big brother, just now a black cat ran in. Can you help me catch it?"

The eunuch quickly shook his head. "No, no. That black cat was raised by the imperial concubine. It wasn't just that black cat, but the imperial concubine also kept a white cat and a nest of little flowery cats."

When Princess Changle heard this, her interest was piqued and she walked inside. The eunuch quickly stopped her, "Little miss, you can't barge in here recklessly! "You'll lose your head."

Suddenly, Princess Changle's face hardened as she shouted, "Insolent servant! I am the princess of Changle, why aren't you letting me pass?"

Hearing this, the eunuch was stunned. He could not kneel, nor could he not kneel. As he was hesitating, he heard Leng Qiyue's voice from behind him, "Let her in. She is indeed Princess Changle."
