Chapter 435: Won't Come Out to See Us
"If the emperor really wanted to do us justice, he would have found the real Princess Lianhe and forced her to tell him where she hid our mother. But the emperor just kept covering up for her and is obviously on Princess Lianhe's side. He won't help us." Shen Yubao said firmly.
"Yes, mother has said before that the emperor has a lot of opinions about her and thinks she is difficult to control." Yi Mobao looked at Shen Yubao and did not tell him that his mother had been forced to have a fake engagement with Ji Chilian to avoid the emperor's control.
"But we can't just sit there and wait for death. Mobao, why don't we go directly to find Princess Lianhe!" Shen Yubao said decisively.
There was a burning glow in Yi Mobao's eyes.
However, Yi Mobao regained his composure after just a moment: "It's useless for us to go, Princess Lianhe won't see us."
The emperor never stood on the side of the National God's Mansion, which also meant that they could not bring the Qin family directly to the princess's mansion to confront Princess Lianhe head-on.
Especially since Princess Lianhe is surrounded by so many powerful Dragon Shadow Guards, they don't have much chance of winning without the Duke of Du in charge.
Seeing Shen Yubao lowering her head in frustration, Yi Mobao comforted her: "Yubao, Princess Lianhe is so cautious, she won't come out to see us."
"No, I think if I go find her, she will definitely come out to see me." Shen Yubao hooked his finger at Yi Mobao and quickly spoke in his ear.
That night, Princess Lianhe, wearing a conical hat, sat in a private room on the third floor of the teahouse, looking bored at the bustling crowd on the street below.
"Master, it's time for us to go back." Lian Xin walked over and bowed to Princess Lianhe.
Princess Lianhe seemed not to have heard Lian Xin's words and did not respond.
Lian Xin hesitated for a moment, then continued to whisper carefully in Princess Lianhe's ear: "My Lord, the Emperor has specifically reminded you that the State Divine Palace is watching you too closely, so you must be careful and not go out. You have disobeyed the Emperor's order today, and if something happens to you..."
"Shut up, you unlucky thing. You're always hoping that something bad will happen to me. Why don't you say something auspicious?" Princess Lianhe grabbed the tea bowl on the table and threw it directly at Lian Xin.
The hot tea immediately spilled onto Lian Xin's skirt, scalding her eyes and making her burst into tears, but she didn't dare to scream.
"Hasn't the injustice I've suffered enough?" Princess Lianhe really couldn't suppress the resentment in her heart.
She did so much and tried hard to pretend to be virtuous, just to get Ji Chilian to stand by her side.
But she had worked so hard, and yet nothing she had done was as good as Yi Qianhuan's smile.
Why is it that the man she loves cares about Yi Qianhuan the most? Even her second brother who once loved her the most chose to stand on Yi Qianhuan's side.
That woman deserves to die.
But unfortunately, that person still wanted to try to win over Yi Qianhuan, and now he took Yi Qianhuan somewhere else, making her bear the blame and having nowhere to vent!
Princess Lianhe felt as if ants were crawling and gnawing on her all over her body, and she urgently needed to relieve herself.
Just when she was about to use the old method to ease her mood, she saw a carriage rushing towards her.
Hurry——!
The driver pulled the reins of the carriage hard, and the carriage stopped.
"Princess, that's the carriage of the National God's Mansion." Lian Xin approached and pointed at the window of the carriage, "Look, the people sitting in the carriage are Shen Yubao and Yi Mobao."
Princess Lianhe saw the two of them clearly and murmured in surprise, "Looking at their expressions, they seem to be arguing?"
After not seeing Shen Yubao for a few days, he had lost a lot of weight. His chin was frighteningly pointy, and his eyes looked even bigger than usual.
However, he seemed to have not had a good rest for several days, resulting in thick dark circles under his eyes, looking very haggard.
"Don't pull me!" Shen Yubao shook off Yi Mobao and stumbled out of the car.
"Yubao! Where are you going? We have only been around the city for more than a dozen times today, and we haven't found our mother yet!" Yi Mobao chased Shen Yubao out of the carriage, grabbed his arm and was about to drag him into the carriage.
"Don't catch me, I've had enough!" Shen Yubao shook off Yi Mobao's hand, looking emotionally broken. "Ever since your mother disappeared, I have to accompany you day and night to find her. I'm already very tired and don't want to go anymore. I beg you not to drag me along, let me have a good rest!"
Yi Mobao looked heartbroken: "Yubao, what are you talking about? That's not only my mother, but also your mother!"
"I changed my words because I thought your mother was going to marry my father. Now your mother's whereabouts are unknown and she can't marry my father, so I naturally don't need to change my words. Yi Mobao, I beg you to be more sober and stop wasting time here. Your mother has disappeared for so many days, and she is in great danger. Don't look for her anymore. She is very likely dead..."
"Shut up!" Yi Mobao didn't give Shen Yubao a chance to finish his words. He rushed over and punched Shen Yubao in the face, "I don't allow you to curse my mother!"
Shen Yubao's eyes immediately turned purple. He couldn't beat Yi Mobao and bit his arm in anger.
Yi Mobao screamed in pain and jumped away from Shen Yubao.
He hurriedly rolled up his sleeves, only to find that Shen Yubao was extremely ruthless, leaving a clear bloody tooth mark on his arm.
"Shen Yubao, are you born in the year of the dog? Why are you barking and biting people!" Yi Mobao's face turned red with anger.
"You forced me to do this. I told you I wanted to go home and rest, but you wouldn't let me go back. If you want to find your mother, go find her yourself. Don't drag me into this. I want to go home and rest!"
"Okay!" Yi Mobao pinched the wound on his arm and glared at Shen Yubao. "If you want to go back, go back. You will no longer be my good friend!"
Shen Yubao watched Yi Mobao get into the car and leave, and subconsciously wanted to catch up with him.
But he calmed down after taking only one step forward, and said with a spit: "Humph, just go, what's the big deal? I don't believe that without you, I can really do nothing!"
Shen Yubao said this and looked around, and found that everyone was pointing at them and talking.
Shen Yubao has never liked interacting with so many people. When he was at a loss, Lian Xin came over with a few servants.
"What are you looking at? How can you offend the young master of the Governor's Mansion? Get out of here if you don't want to die!" Lian Xin scolded.
The people who were watching were quite tactful and left quickly after being scolded.
"Thank you for helping me, sister. I wonder who your master is? I must thank you very much." Shen Yubao said politely.
Lian Xin pointed to the third-floor window of the teahouse nearby and said, "Young Master Shen, my princess wants to see you."
Shen Yubao was stunned for a moment. He looked up and saw Princess Lianhe. His handsome brows immediately twisted into a knot.
"Young Master Shen, my princess is also concerned about your health. After you were harmed by the seven-colored stone, my princess hasn't helped you with diagnosis for a long time. Today is a good opportunity." Lian Xin continued to add to the discussion.
