Chapter 1227: The Girl Who Vanished into Thin Air
The Imperial Guard cleared the way, and everyone departed.Yuan Ruxin bit her lip with worry etched across her face.
Unexpectedly, she had even implicated her master.
Surely, there must have been a spy who entered the palace just now to inform the Emperor!
The Emperor, knowing that a stranger had seen through these plots, would certainly investigate her.
Yuan Ruxin sighed.
Xixi looked up and asked obediently and thoughtfully, "Sister, will that sister come back?"
Yuan Ruxin looked down at her.
She felt a sense of loneliness, as if they were two sisters relying on each other to survive.
"She will." Yuan Ruxin stroked Xixi’s head, "She’s an all-powerful little fairy!"
Xixi smiled sweetly and innocently, "I think so too, no one is as beautiful as that sister just now."
Bai Zhi’er had just left when Yuan Ruxin arranged a room and servants for Xixi.
Suddenly!
The ground in the east shook violently.
It was as if an earth dragon turned over, causing several buildings to collapse, and people fled in terror.
Yuan Ruxin quickly grabbed Xixi’s hand and ran to an open area.
Everywhere, panicked citizens didn’t know what had happened.
Yuan Ruxin sent the guards to inquire about the cause.
Soon, they learned—
"Commandery Princess, the mountains in the east began shaking for no reason, and the earth split!"
"Some elders say it’s the Mountain God’s wrath, possibly an ominous sign."
Yuan Ruxin was quite surprised.
She didn’t believe it was the Mountain God’s doing; her first thought was whether her master, in a fit of anger, had flipped the mountains outside the Capital?
Meanwhile, the sky was already lightening.
After Bai Zhi’er was summoned into the palace, the old eunuch directly led her to an empty hall.
"Wait here. The Emperor will come when he’s free!" The old eunuch said harshly, turning to leave.
Bai Zhi’er was quite at ease, sitting down and helping herself to the fruits and snacks on the table.
The tea, however, was too cold to drink.
She tasted it and then put it down.
"Brother Fu Ce, that rascal, said he’d come, but he didn’t!" Bai Zhi’er grumbled, lying on the table.
As the sky became brighter, she grew more and more sleepy.
Because this meant her body would awaken, and naturally, her Divine Sense would return.
Bai Zhi’er yawned as voices were heard at the door—
"Emperor, the person is inside, no mistake."
"Have you investigated?" The Emperor’s voice was cold and low.
The old eunuch quickly responded, "We have. She was in the Yuan Family’s ancestral tomb guiding, and even moved a tomb for the Yuan Residence’s Second Old Master!"
The Emperor sneered, and Bai Zhi’er detected a hint of mockery.
Soon, shadows appeared at the entrance, and the old eunuch announced loudly, "The Emperor has arrived!"
A black boot stepped in first, followed by a pair of extremely sharp, deep eyes that surveyed the surroundings.
This face was both sharp and merciless, but because of his youth, it still seemed too immature.
Xie Yu glanced at the empty room.
He turned and stared at the old eunuch, "Where is she?"
The old eunuch couldn’t believe it, "She was just inside!"
The guards at the door hadn’t seen anyone enter or leave.
The old eunuch broke into a cold sweat, "Emperor, I truly don’t know what happened. I definitely brought her in and had her wait here!"
"Look, there are traces where she ate!"
Xie Yu stepped forward and glanced at the half-drunk teacup.
He chuckled coldly.
This girl had quite a nerve; she even thought to drink tea, showing she was not at all afraid.
Xie Yu crossed his arms, coldly laughing, "It seems this person indeed has some skill."
To be able to disappear into thin air.
Meanwhile, much to Xie Yu’s unimaginable surprise, within Da Chu Rui Zhu Palace, Bai Zhi’er had awoken.
