Wei Ting’s mind was exhausted and he had a headache for three days.
Su Xiaoxiao reminded him not to memorize so many things anymore. It was too hurtful.
It was unknown where the Saintess went that day. Jing Yi went to look for her and had yet to return.
On the other hand, the puppet expert sent by Elder Yi returned.
He couldn’t kill Yun Xue, but he brought back a token that he had torn off the secret guard who stopped him.
“It’s someone from the Thousand Possibilities Pavilion.”
In the garden, Elder Yi handed the Thousand Possibilities Pavilion’s token to the Palace Lord.
She didn’t say that the Qiong Qi was going to kill Yun Xue. She only said that he was going to s.n.a.t.c.h the token left behind by the old Palace Lord. However, on the way, he encountered someone who interfered and took Yun Xue away.
“Fortunately, we took back the old Palace Lord’s token.”
As Elder Yi spoke, she took out the old Palace Lord’s token and handed it to her.
In fact, she had s.n.a.t.c.hed this token from Yun Xue the last time and had never handed it to Palace Lord Yun Shuang to prevent such a situation from happening today.
The Palace Lord was carrying Wei Xiaobao.
She took her father’s token.
Wei Xiaobao reached out to grab it.
This was the first time Wei Xiaobao was interested in anything other than milk bottles and rations.
The Palace Lord was pleasantly surprised. “You know how to grab things at such a young age? You like this?”
The token was a little heavy. The Palace Lord held the swaddling clothes in one hand and the token in the other, letting Wei Xiaobao play.
At the same time, she was also thinking about what Elder Yi had just said. “The people from the Thousand Possibilities Pavilion never interfered in the disputes of the various sects on the island, but they actually took Yun Xue away? Are they saving her or capturing her? What’s there to capture Yun Xue for? But she’s even more useless. Unless… she used something very powerful to make a deal with the Thousand Possibilities Pavilion.”
The smart Palace Lord immediately guessed the key. “Ling Yun’s background!”
Although she did not admit it in public, Yun Xue had caught Zhong Yan and found out about her fake pregnancy. She had also seen Xiahou Qing’s abnormal behavior in front of Ling Yun.
After thinking about it, it would be strange if she couldn’t guess.
The Palace Lord’s expression turned cold. “From today onwards, the Hundred Flowers Palace will be on high alert! There’s no need to ask about trespa.s.sers. Kill!”
In the following days, as expected, a few waves of suspicious people came outside the Hundred Flowers Palace, but they were all discovered and eliminated by the disciples of the Hundred Flowers Palace.
Gradually, the Hundred Flowers Palace returned to its long-awaited peace.
However, there was an uproar outside the Hundred Flowers Palace.
The reason was that on the day of the little master’s one-month-old, Xiahou Qing left without saying goodbye. Not only did he not personally preside over the little master’s one-month-old celebration, but he also did not announce that he would support Madam Ru to become the Madam of the City Lord.
In the beginning, the wind on the island was still on Madam Ru’s side. Everyone thought that something big had happened on the island and needed the City Lord to deal with it urgently.
After the City Lord was done, he would naturally make up for the position of the City Lord’s Madam that he owed to Madam Ru.
Unexpectedly, a day pa.s.sed. Two days pa.s.sed. Half a month pa.s.sed!
Madam Ru was still Madam Ru!
At the same time, a rumor spread: The City Lord left without saying goodbye at the young master’s one-month-old celebration and went to the Hundred Flowers Palace!
Moreover, someone saw that the City Lord had been entering and leaving the Hundred Flowers Palace frequently recently.
Hence, there were new rumors.
The City Lord had taken a fancy to a female disciple of the Hundred Flowers Palace who looked like a fairy!
The eldest daughter of the City Lord Manor, Xiahou Yanyu, had punished this female disciple once, causing the City Lord to be angry. He immediately sent Xiahou Yanyu back to the Ge family.
The rumors became more and more intense. Even Madam Ru could not sit still.
“Where’s the City Lord?”
She asked.
Cai Lian whispered, “The City Lord went out…”
Madam Ru said sarcastically, “Did he go to the Hundred Flowers Palace again?”
Cai Lian braced herself and said, “I don’t know.”
Madam Ru said, “Pack up. I want to return to Heavenly Jade Hall.”
Cai Lian said worriedly, “Madam, what are you doing? You can’t be angry with the City Lord!”
Madam Ru looked at her exquisitely made-up self in the bronze mirror. “I’m not that stupid. I’m just going back to see my mother.”
Hundred Flowers Palace.
Ling Yun had just finished teaching his evil disciples literacy when Xiahou Qing came over.
“What are you doing here again?”
Ling Yun asked calmly.
Xiahou Qing sat down opposite him.
He did not sit on the triplets’ exclusive futon and sat on the floor.
He looked at Ling Yun gently. “I’m here to see you.”
Ling Yundao put away the three wretched disciples’ books. “Isn’t it too strange that the City Lord abandoned his biological son and came to the Hundred Flowers Palace to see an outsider like me?”
Xiahou Qing looked at him deeply. “I let you and your mother down back then. It’s only right for you to blame me, but no matter what, you’re my…
