C203 Unexpected

"Princess, something terrible has happened."

Duan Yunfei was joking with Xiao Yang Xiao Ya when Xiao Gui ran in from outside the house in a panic.

"What happened?" Duan Yunfei asked Xiao Gui. Xiao Yang and Xiao Ya also looked at Xiao Gui nervously.

"Princess, right now, everyone in the palace is saying that you will be leading the troops to war … "I wonder how this news got out …"

"How could this happen?" Xiao Yang exclaimed, not many people knew about this, how could it suddenly spread like this.

"Today, this servant realized that there isn't much charcoal left in the hall, so this servant went to Ministry of Internal Affairs to retrieve some charcoal. But before the servant could enter the Ministry of Internal Affairs, he heard a few young eunuchs in the room discussing something. Initially, this servant did not notice, but I heard that they were talking about the Thirteenth Princess, so I secretly overheard them. "

Compared to the palace maids who liked to gossip, eunuchs were not that strange. However, if even eunuchs were discussing about this matter, then this news would have definitely spread throughout the entire palace.

"Princess, what should we do now?" Xiao Ya knew Duan Yunfei's original plan, and was afraid that her plan was going to fail.

Rather than worrying about himself, Duan Yunfei was more worried about whether the people in the palace were worried or not after knowing about the border war. It had to be known that if it was a small battle, the imperial government would definitely not send the General Wei Yuan over. However, the situation now was not good for the General Wei Yuan to lead their troops and see the situation turn for the better.

"There's nothing we can do about it, but I'm afraid this matter was spread out by the people from the Red Luan Palace, after all, not many people knew about it."

had just finished speaking, and someone had already come to ask for forgiveness.

"Thirteenth Princess, this servant has something to talk to you about." After Duan Yunfei heard the voice, she looked outside the door. It was a Red Luan Palace who was shouting for Duan Yunfei.

"Come in."

This hymen entered the Red Luan Palace at the same time as Xiao Ya, and was also personally selected by the Eunuch Li. Duan Yunfei remembered her;

"What business do you have with me?" Duan Yunfei was not affected by Xiao Gui Zi's words, and asked gently.

"Thirteenth Princess, please forgive me." Duan Yunfei did not expect the hymen to suddenly kneel in front of him, kowtow, and beg Duan Yunfei to forgive him.

Duan Yunfei thought for a while, then realized that all of the rumors about him must have had something to do with the palace maid in front of him.

"You get up first and speak clearly. Why should I forgive you? "No, what have you done to beg forgiveness from me?"

Although Duan Yunfei already knew what was going on in her heart, in order to prevent herself from wrongly accusing her, she still decided to get to the bottom of this matter.

"Thirteenth Princess, what happened in the palace... It's all my fault for talking too much. When I was talking to the sisters of the Raccoon Department that day, I accidentally leaked the news that you were leaving the capital in a few days. When this servant finally regained her senses, she repeatedly emphasized that she should not speak of this matter. However, this servant did not expect that everyone in the palace was discussing this matter. "Princess, your servant spoke too much. No matter how much you punish me, your servant will not complain."

Sure enough, everything was as Duan Yunfei had expected.

"Alright, stop kneeling."

hymen thought that Duan Yunfei was not willing to give her another chance, and had instead kowtowed even harder, "Princess, this servant knows that I have done wrong. I beg Princess to give this servant another chance."

"I don't blame you. Hurry and get up."

hymen thought she had heard wrongly, and raised her head to look at Duan Yunfei's face. When she saw Duan Yunfei's face, she knew that Duan Yunfei was speaking the truth, so she stood up.

Duan Yunfei could understand this matter, although it was indeed the hymen who leaked the information, leading to the current situation. But she knew that this hymen had a personality that couldn't hide her words. Every day, she would laugh and chatter non-stop.

Moreover, even if this matter hadn't been leaked out by now, it should have been discovered by others. Duan Yunfei could hide it for a while, but she couldn't hide it for the rest of her life.

Although Duan Yunfei had previously told Xiao Ya that if anyone came to look for trouble, they would tell the outside world that Duan Yunfei was not allowed to meet anyone who was sick. But if the empress came, could she also use this reason to deal with it? You know, that would be quite disrespectful.

"You don't need to look at me like that. Wipe your tears. Since I've said that I won't blame you, I won't settle the score. I am very pleased that you have come of your own volition to me to admit your wrongs. "Alright, you can go now."

The hymen was trembling with fear, as if she could not believe that she had escaped punishment. However, seeing the comforting look in Xiao Yang's eyes, the hymen felt much more at ease.

"This servant will take his leave." In the end, the hymen still left. When she reached the door, she turned around to thank Duan Yunfei for not punishing her.

"Princess, why are you doing this?" Xiao Ya did not understand, but because a palace maid had leaked the news, it had caused everyone in the imperial palace to know that Duan Yunfei was going to the front lines. This had undoubtedly brought about a great hindrance to Duan Yunfei's safety in the capital, but Duan Yunfei did not reprimand her at all, which was truly strange.

"You want to ask why I did not punish her for her crimes?"

Xiao Ya nodded.

"This is just something unintentional to her. Everyone can make mistakes, but not everyone has the courage to admit it. Do you remember that you were almost used by Duan Liusu back then? At that time, I did not punish you severely because you also had your own difficulties. "

Xiao Ya remembered that Duan Yunfei did not punish her and had even sent people to take care of her father who was severely ill outside the palace. That was the main reason why Xiao Ya was so loyal to Duan Yunfei.

"Then, Princess, what should we do now?" Xiao Yang was most worried about Duan Yunfei, if this matter was not settled well before they left the capital, Duan Yunfei's journey would be affected.

"It looks like I can only make a trip to royal father's place." Duan Yunfei sighed, this matter was truly annoying.

"But Princess, you are still grounded."

Ever since Duan Yunfei had snuck out of the Red Luan Palace last time, there had been guards at the sides and back door of the Red Luan Palace, all in order to prevent that kind of situation from happening again.

"If you hadn't said it, I would have forgotten."

The days of confinement were too boring. In these few days, Duan Yunfei did the same thing every single day, which made her extremely annoyed.

Since Duan Yunfei could not leave, then she could only ask Yuwen Di to head to Red Luan Palace.

"Then I'll have to trouble you to be my carrier pigeon."
