Huangfu Liyue's pupils widened and she clutched Mu Jingchen's arm tightly.
"My mother is still in the underground palace. Could she be telling the envoy to do something bad for my mother?"
After saying that, she gave up the idea and said to herself: "But the envoy has left the palace, and even if he is still in the palace, his father has sent people to guard the underground palace, and he can't do anything to me anymore. Not good for mother.¡±
So what did the queen say to the envoy?
When she was confused, Mu Jingchen held her hand and said, "Don't worry, your Majesty has secretly sent someone to keep an eye on the envoy until he returns to country L."
"Father?"
"Well, Your Majesty knows the Queen better than you, so he will naturally be on guard against her."
Regarding this, Huangfu Liyue was finally relieved.
Now, we are just waiting for the news from our adoptive father.
¡
The king's bedroom.
The king sat in front of the long desk, staring at the state information in front of him with a cold expression, but his thoughts had wandered away.
Until Hans walked in from the outside and shouted: "Your Majesty."
The king came back to his senses and looked at him.
"how's it going?"
"As your Majesty guessed, the envoy did not return to country L immediately after leaving the palace. Instead, he found a hotel to stay outside the palace."
"oh?"
The king raised his eyebrows, waiting for him to continue.
Hans continued: "Moreover, I have privately investigated the identity of the envoy. He is the brother of the king of country L, named You Yong, and is also the queen's nephew."
The king¡¯s eyes suddenly became extremely complicated.
He knew that the queen had a good relationship with the king of country l.
The queen mother of the king of country l died early. The queen used to take great care of the king of country l and his brothers.
To the king of country l, the queen is equivalent to their mother.
Now, You Yong came to country y as an envoy. After finishing his work, he did not leave directly. There must be something wrong.
"Send someone to keep an eye on him 24 hours a day. If there is any trouble, notify me immediately."
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
After Hans left, the king continued to deal with state affairs.
¡
It¡¯s getting late.
Royal Hospital, in the ward.
The king sat beside the hospital bed, holding water in one hand and a medicine bottle in the other, and sent them to Huangfu Liyue.
"Nuoxi, it's time to take medicine."
"Father, I can do it myself."
She took the medicine, drank it in proportion, and then looked at her father.
"Father, there are so many doctors and nurses in this hospital, you don't have to take care of me yourself."
The king looked at the injuries on her face and said: "How can this be the same? No matter how well others take care of you, it can't be as peaceful as the father himself who looks after you."
Huangfu Liyue smiled knowingly, her heart filled with warmth.
Just as he was about to speak, Hans suddenly walked in from the door.
"Your Majesty, You Yong just left the hotel where he lived and sneaked to an open space behind the palace."
The king looked at Hans.
"What does he want to do?"
"It's still unclear. After he came to the open space behind the palace, he kept poking the ground with a wooden stick, as if he was looking for something. Our people were afraid of alerting the enemy, so they didn't take action yet."
Huangfu Liyue and the king looked at each other and guessed: "Father, could it be that"
The king frowned deeply and ordered: "Don't scare the snake, let's see what he wants to do."
After saying that, he felt a little worried and stood up directly and said, "I'll go and see for myself!"
Then, the king and Hans left the ward together.
Huangfu Liyue was sitting alone in the ward, his eyes full of worry.
What was You Yong doing suddenly running behind the palace?
Directly behind the palace, not far from the underground palace.
It¡¯s just that the underground palace is within the scope of the royal palace.
You Yong spent most of the night poking at the open space behind the palace with a stick
What is he looking for?
What could be under the ground?
Huangfu Liyue was suddenly startled and blurted out two words: "Secret passage!"
¡°Could it be that there is a third exit from the underground palace, outside the palace? !
Thinking of this, she couldn't sit still.
If this is the case, then You Yong wants to enter the underground palace.
heHe must have gotten the queen's order to hurt his mother!
Huangfu Liyue didn't care much, just opened the quilt on his body, got up and got out of bed.
However, her legs were not yet strong enough, and she stumbled and almost fell down before she could stand firmly.
Fortunately, Mu Jingchen arrived in time, supported her, and asked her to sit back on the bed.
"Liyue, you can't get out of bed now."
Huangfu Liyue no longer cared about his health, grabbed his hand and said: "The envoy from country L went to the open space behind the palace. There is probably another passage to the underground palace there. Jingchen, mother is in danger!"
Mu Jingchen looked at her anxious expression and said comfortingly: "Don't worry, His Majesty has already rushed over. Moreover, the people under Hans are staring at You Yong. There is no chance that he will take action."
Even though he said this, Huangfu Liyue's heart was still beating very fast.
She seemed to have an ominous premonition.
"I'm still worried about my mother, Jingchen, I want to go see her!"
"no."
Mu Jingchen decisively rejected her, let her go to bed and covered her with a quilt.
"If you are worried, I will go and see for myself. I promise that nothing will happen to your mother!"
After saying that, he coaxed her and whispered: "Be obedient, you have a good rest."
Huangfu Liyue lay down uneasily and watched Mu Jingchen leave the ward.
Less than a minute after he left, she sat up again.
She couldn¡¯t wait here for news about her mother, and she felt very uneasy.
So, after he left, she got out of bed secretly and put a coat on her body.
When she was about to leave the ward, Lin Ze stopped her outside the door.
"Princess, President Mu has told me that you should not move around now. You should go back and rest."
"Stop trying to persuade me, Lin Ze. If you knew that your mother was in danger, could you wait here for news with peace of mind?"
Lin Ze looked confused.
"Princess, President Mu has already gone. If you go there again, if something happens, President Mu will be able to take care of you."
She understood Lin Ze¡¯s concerns and had no intention of going over and causing trouble.
However, she felt uneasy and couldn't stay any longer.
"Lin Ze, don't worry, I won't go near the underground palace. I just want to check on my mother. If anything happens to my mother, I will feel guilty for the rest of my life!"
Lin Ze looked at her bloodless face, with that expectant look that he couldn't refuse.
"Okay, but princess, you promise me that you can only watch from a distance and not get close. Otherwise, if anything happens to you, President Mu will definitely take issue with me."
"Okay, I promise you."
A smile finally appeared on Huangfu Liyue's face.
Afterwards, Lin Ze helped her out of the hospital.
At the entrance of the hospital, Lin Ze asked someone to send a car and helped Huangfu Liyue up.
Considering her injuries, Lin Ze also brought a nurse to accompany her.
Afterwards, Lin Ze told the driver: "The princess is injured, drive slower." (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
