When Bai Yanqing and the others came out again, Xin Wanrong had already left. There was only Mrs. Qingluan in the empty lobby.
As for what Xin Wanrong and Mrs. Qingluan talked about, I'm afraid... only they know.
Bai Yanqing was not the kind of person who liked to inquire into other people's affairs. She went downstairs as if nothing had happened and did not start a conversation with Mrs. Qingluan.
"Luo Sheng, is there any news about star collecting in the past two days?"
Bai Yanqing asked Luo Sheng. Chu Aotian didn't come over today. It must have something to do with Xin Wanrong's return home.
Luo Sheng shrugged and shook his head. Obviously, he had no news about star hunting.
Judging from the current situation, Caixing is definitely not life-threatening. I just don't know why she was imprisoned in the palace by Xin Wan Ning.
Bai Yanqing sat in front of the window as a habit, staring at the people walking on the street outside, with an unconcealable loneliness in her eyes.
It would be great if Cai Xing was here!
Why……
Bai Yanqing sighed gloomily.
"What are you sighing for?"
A familiar male voice sounded from behind Bai Yanqing.
"I want to collect stars!"
Bai Yanqing replied casually.
"Oh? Really? It seems like you haven't missed me!"
A familiar male voice sighed in a pretentious manner.
Bai Yanqing was stunned for a moment, and then, as if she suddenly remembered something! Get up suddenly!
"Brother Jing!!!"
Bai Yanqing excitedly threw herself at the person behind her!
Yes, that’s right, the person coming is none other than Ji Nanjing!
Ji Nanjing was staggered by Bai Yanqing and almost fell backwards! Fortunately, he has a good foundation and some skills! Otherwise, Bai Yanqing would really have thrown him to the ground!
"Okay, okay, okay! If you keep doing this, our Highness may want to eat me alive!"
Ji Nanjing helplessly patted the girl in his arms on the head and said lovingly.
"Brother Jing, why did you suddenly come to Xingyue Kingdom?"
Bai Yanqing calmed down a little, then happily asked him.
Bai Yanqing's question made Ji Nanjing stunned for a moment, but he did not answer Bai Yanqing directly.
"It's not just me. There's someone else."
Ji Nanjing smiled and said.
"There is another person? Who?"
Bai Yanqing blinked her eyes and asked with confusion on her face.
"Long time no see, Miss Bai!"
A familiar yet unfamiliar voice sounded from behind Ji Nanjing.
Bai Yanqing hurriedly stretched her neck and looked behind Ji Nanjing. When she saw that familiar face, Bai Yanqing was stunned again!
How could it be him? How could he...come to the capital of Xingyue Kingdom with Ji Nanjing?
"Your Highness the Fifth Prince?"
From Bai Yanqing's words, it is not difficult to hear his shock!
"It's me, Miss Bai saw the right person!"
Yun Kai smiled slightly and replied. He did not miss the astonishment in Bai Yanqing's eyes.
Why did Yun Kai come to Xingyue Kingdom?
This is the thing that Bai Yanqing cannot understand the most right now!
"Your Majesty, please have some tea!"
Bai Yanqing had not recovered from the shock until Yuan Li served the tea!
"Madam, what are you thinking about?"
Yun Qi stretched out his hand and waved it in front of Bai Yanqing's eyes. Only then did she call her soul back!
Bai Yanqing shook her head and said nothing. She understood that Yun Kai would not suddenly come to Xingyue Kingdom for no reason. There must be something else that she didn't know about.
"Fifth brother came at a good time!"
Yun Ji on the side said in a neutral tone. No one could figure out what he meant by these words!
Yun Kai smiled and glanced at Yun Ji with unknown meaning.
"If I
If he doesn't come, how can Brother Three Emperors escape? How can the eldest brother make the golden cicada escape from its shell? "
Yun Kai's words had a profound meaning. Others may not have heard anything, but the expressions of Yunqi and Yunji immediately changed!
"Brother, there is no need to hide it from me. Whether you are a fool or not, I know very well."
Yun Kai's words made everyone present change their expressions instantly!
"Yuan Ziyue, there is no need to unsheath your sword! You two royal brothers... don't need to be afraid of me! This time, I am here with Master Ji to help you!"
Yun Kai glanced at Yuan Ziyue lightly, then continued with a smile.
Yuan Ziyue was stunned. His hand that had just grasped the hilt of the sword paused. He glanced at Yun Qi and saw Yun Qi shaking his head at him, so he let go!
"Brother, instead of letting that idiot Yuntao get an advantage, why not... let me help you take over that mess, what do you think?"
Yun Kai looked at Yun Qi, the smile in his eyes not diminishing.
Bai Yanqing has never seen Yun Kai like this before! While listening to Yun Kai's words, she was secretly wondering what the purpose of Yun Kai's trip was!
"Why should I trust you?"
After a long time, Yunqi finally spoke. He stared at Yun Kai with bright eyes, not a trace of turbidity in his eyes.
"By the way, I have never coveted your throne! By the way, my mother-in-law and I have been secretly helping you two brothers!"
Yun Kai stared at Yun Qi without any fear. It was not until this moment that Bai Yanqing could see the clarity in his eyes!
In the past, when Bai Yanqing was in the Chen Palace, she always felt that she couldn't see through Concubine Xian or the fifth prince Yun Kai! However, at this moment, Bai Yanqing suddenly discovered that it seemed that not only her, but everyone had never truly seen the mother and son of the noble concubine!
"Who do you think, for so many years, has blocked the people secretly sent by your father to investigate you? Why do you think the Third Emperor Brother can be so carefree and wanton in the palace? Why do you think Miss Bai, Can you leave the palace so smoothly? If it weren't for my mother-in-law, do you think you could still be sitting here unscathed now?"
Yun Kai's cold eyes scanned everyone.
"Why are you helping us?"
After all, Yunqi is the clearest and calmest.
There are no good-hearted people in this world without any reason. Everyone in the world will reach out to help others only when there is something to gain. Yunqi has always understood this truth!
"Because... the late Queen once... was kind to my mother and concubine!"
After Yun Kai was silent for a moment, he slowly spoke.
Yun Qi and Yun Ji looked at each other and saw disbelief in each other's eyes!
"Who would believe what you said? Are you just making it up to win our trust?"
Yun Ji frowned and looked at Yun Kai with disbelief in his eyes.
Yun Kai was stunned for a moment and said nothing, defending himself and his mother and concubine.
Whether you believe it or not depends entirely on the Yunqi brothers. No matter how much Yun Kai explains, it is useless.
"My dearest concubine, what is your maiden name?"
Bai Yanqing, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly spoke and asked.
Yun Kai was stunned again. Perhaps, he had not expected that Bai Yanqing would suddenly speak and ask such a question.
Yun Kai didn't answer, as if he had something to hide.
"Mrs. Qingluan, could you please come over here."
Bai Yanqing suddenly stood up, walked to Mrs. Qingluan not far away, and pulled her in front of Yun Kai.
"Does Your Highness, Fifth Prince, know who she is?"
Bai Yanqing then asked.
Yun Kai shook his head hesitantly.
"Her name is Qingluan, and she was once the personal maid of Her Majesty the Queen of Star-Moon Kingdom. She also has a younger sister named Hongluan, who, like her, was once the personal maid of Her Majesty the Queen of Star-Moon Kingdom."
Bai Yanqing explained to Yun Kai carefully, word for word.
Yun Kai didn't say a word, but there were almost undetectable subtle changes on his face.
, was still keenly captured by Bai Yanqing.
"Yuan Li, take the portrait!"
After Bai Yanqing said that, he stretched out his hand in front of Yuan Li.
Upon seeing this, Yuan Li quickly took out the portrait of Hong Luan in his sleeve.
"Your Majesty, Fifth Prince, do you think this portrait looks familiar?"
Bai Yanqing held the portrait up to Yun Kai's eyes without hesitation. Force him to look at this portrait!
"No...I don't think..."
Yun Kai's words clearly showed a lack of confidence.
However, Bai Yanqing already knew the answer! She casually threw the portrait to Yuan Li and then sat down to drink tea leisurely!
Mrs. Qingluan looked at the young man in front of her. That face was at least 50 or 60% similar to her sister! She suppressed the excitement in her heart, covered her mouth, covered her face and sobbed!
"Yuan Li, help Mrs. Qingluan go upstairs and have a rest! She is very tired today!"
Bai Yanqing calmly spoke to Yuan Li.
Yuan Li understood, and without saying a word, he carried Mrs. Qingluan and went upstairs.
"Yuan Qi!"
Bai Yanqing shouted.
"Um?"
Yuan Li looked back at Bai Yanqing in confusion.
"Help! I'll let you hold on! Help!"
Bai Yanqing frowned, glanced at Yuan Li's arm, and motioned to her.
Yuan Li was silent, silently put down his arm, and instead "helped" Mrs. Qingluan.
Rude! How rude!
Bai Yanqing rolled her eyes silently in her heart!
"Brother Jing came suddenly, but he also came with a mission?"
Bai Yanqing glanced at Ji Nanjing with a smile and asked calmly. She didn't push Yun Kai anymore. After all, some things only made sense if he was willing to say them himself.
Ji Nanjing didn't expect Bai Yanqing to suddenly turn the target of her attack on him. He was speechless for a moment and didn't know how to answer.
"Why don't you let me guess?"
Bai Yanqing smiled a little weirdly.
Ji Nanjing couldn't help but break out a few drops of cold sweat on his forehead! He was most afraid of Bai Yanqing's half-smiling look, which made people panic!
"Did Aunt An ask you to bring some news again? Or... did she ask you to come here for something else?"
Bai Yanqing said with a smile.
"Haha...what did sister say? Can't it be that I miss you? I'm here to care about you?"
Ji Nanjing wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said sarcastically.
"Um?"
Bai Yanqing raised her eyebrows, which frightened Ji Nanjing to the point where he could no longer hold the cup in his hand.
Yun Qi on the side couldn't help but raise the corner of his mouth when he saw Ji Nanjing's cowardly look!
"Haha, actually...it's just...a little thing!"
Ji Nanjing pinched two fingers and made a "small" shape.
"explain!"
Bai Yanqing slammed the table so hard that the cup in Ji Nanjing's hand fell off the table in fright, and the warm tea spilled all over the table!
"She asked me to help Cai Xing seize the throne!"
Ji Nanjing spoke hurriedly.
"What?!"
Bai Yanqing thought her ears had heard it wrong! Her eyes were filled with disbelief!
Seize the throne? Is Aunt An crazy? !
"Is this, what you said, a "little thing"? ! "
Bai Yanqing was stunned! Why did she come to Xingyue Kingdom? She wanted to accompany Cai Xing to recognize her mother! I will return to Chen Kingdom after I admit it!
Now, Ji Nanjing took the task assigned by Aunt An and said that he would help Caixing win the throne! If this is true, then Cai Xing will definitely stay in Xingyue Kingdom for the rest of his life! Then how could she return to Chen Country with him?
Bai Yanqing was so angry that she almost lost her breath!
