Jia Baoyu kowtowed to him seriously. It's small and cute, and really lovable. No wonder Mrs. Shi hurt him as if it were an eyeball. When Min Yiyi asked him to get up, Jia Yuanchun said: "Baoyu, show your jade to the Queen!" Xiao Baoyu went over, pointed to the collar around his neck and said, "Your Majesty, Jade." Min Yiyi looked at it, it was a small piece, deep green, not like ordinary things. "Empress, do you have any jade?" Jia Baoyu asked with wide, confused eyes. Min Yiyi smiled and said: "I don't have such a beautiful jade as you." Jia Baoyu: "Your Majesty, you are beautiful. I'll give you this jade." He said that he was going to take it off and give it to Min Yiyi.
The servant waiting next to him was shocked and rushed over to pick him up. He was so embarrassed that he didn't know what to do. Min Yiyi said: "Take him to eat something next door first. I have something to tell you girls." The servants of the Jia family resigned. Min Yiyi looked at Jia Yuanchun and smiled: "Don't you think that if you bring Baoyu here, I won't kill you?" Jia Yuanchun's expression changed. Min Yiyi: "If you want me to die, I have to die. If I want to kill you, it's just a matter of words. What do you think?" Jia Yuanchun knelt down and said, "Why did your Majesty say this? I wonder where I have offended Your Majesty?" Min Yiyi: "Ha! You didn't offend me. You just wanted to kill me and the emperor and make Prince Kang the emperor, so that the fate of your Jia family can be changed. Yes or no?" Jia Yuanchun lowered his head and said nothing, no longer pretending to be innocent. Min Yiyi: "But it's impossible now! Even if the emperor and I die, it's impossible for Emperor Wugou to sit on the throne. With such a mother, no one will support him." Jia Yuanchun raised his head: "I wonder what the empress wants to say?" Min Yiyi said: "We are the same kind of people, so there is no need to fight to the death, right? You do your task, and I do mine. You use your identity to restrain your family, and I use my identity to protect your life. Why not cooperate together?" win?" Jia Yuanchun was a little moved: "Is your Majesty willing to protect Jia's family?" Min Yiyi: "The fate of the Jia family does not depend on me, but on yourselves. Just like your brother Jia Lan and the Lin family brothers, life and death are often controlled by their own choices. I can only promise to protect you as much as possible. Whether you can protect your family or not is up to you." After a pause, Min Yiyi looked in the direction of the room next to her: "Also, having experienced life and death, I know the preciousness of life. I don't want to see innocent people suffer. Just like Baoyu, what a cute child! Even You are also a gentle, affectionate and talented girl." Jia Yuanchun said nothing, lowered his head and pondered. Or perhaps, discussing with her system. Min Yiyi did not disturb her and waited quietly. After a long time, Jia Yuanchun said: "My queen has made a comeback from adversity. From being disgusted by the emperor to being deeply loved by the emperor, I think she is very capable. I just trust my queen for once. What do you want me to do?" Min Yiyi: "Go to the fiefdom. Don't come back unless there are special circumstances. If Prince Kang is worried, you can also take Jia away."
Jia Yuanchun said: "Okay." When Jia Yuanchun left, Min Rou happened to come in. Then she pretended to be nonchalant and asked Min Yiyi why she came to the palace? Min Yiyi made up an excuse to deal with it, and asked her what she was doing. Min Rou said: "His Royal Highness the Third Prince has issued the imperial edict granting marriage. I heard that Xiaotang is leaving the palace?" Min Yiyi nodded: "Go to your mother's house in advance to prepare for the wedding." Min Rou: "Although the future third princess is someone close to the empress, we are a family and are destined to be together. I want to prepare a dowry for her and let her take it away." Min Yiyi: "I prepared it for her, so you don't have to spend any money." Min Rou was a little disappointed: "Is your Majesty having an affair with my sister? The money in my sister's hands was all given by my Majesty!" Min Yiyi couldn't refuse, so she had to call Xiaotang to thank her and accept it. …… Years ago, Emperor Wugou married Jia Yuanchun and left the capital for the fiefdom. Emperor Wugou was indeed filial and took his mother Jia away. At the same time, Xiaotang also went to the Zhou family and became their daughter. She would marry His Highness the following spring. Min Yiyi did not expect that something would happen to Xiaotang. She's gone. "...I don't know what happened that night. Everyone was sleeping very hard. We don't know how people disappeared." Mr. Zhou knelt on the ground and replied tremblingly. When Min Yiyi heard this, she asked No. 9: [Do you have any clues here? 】 No. 9 said: [It was a masked man in black who climbed over the wall into the Zhou Mansion and carried Xiaotang away. Now, Xiaotang is in Black Tiger Cliff. 】 Min Yiyi: [Black Tiger Cliff? What is that place? 】 No. 9: [Five hundred miles away, a bandit's den. 】 Min Yiyi: [...bandit's den? 】 No. 9: [Well, Black Tiger Cliff is easy to defend but difficult to attack, and has always been a hidden danger for the imperial court. After the emperor ascended the throne, he sent people to recruit people and was negotiating. 】 Min Yiyi: [Why did they kidnap Xiaotang? 】 Number 9: [I don’t know. I have been monitoring Black Tiger Cliff and everything is going as usual. I feel like not many people know about it. Only the two leaders and the person who went to take Xiaotang away knew. 】 Min Yiyi: [How is Xiaotang now? 】 No. 9: [Horrified and frightened, but the bandits didn’t do anything to her for the time being. 】 Min Yiyi: [You also know that it is temporary. 】 Number 9: [What should we do now? 】 Min Yiyi looked at Di Hanxin. Emperor Hanxin sent people to Zhou Mansion to check for traces.
Those who came back said they found nothing unusual. Why everyone slept so soundly that night has become an unsolvable mystery. No. 9 monitored and observed that they just locked up Xiaotang and provided her with good food and drink, but did not torture or bully her. So Min Yiyi waited for two days to see if they would send a letter and make any demands. However, there was no movement over there. It is difficult for Di Hanxin to trace where the person went. Black Tiger Cliff is not a place that ordinary people can go, and Min Yiyi has no way to ask her grandfather to send people to rescue her. That will only lead to death. And this matter couldn't be delayed forever, so she found someone to forge a letter, asking for ten thousand taels of gold as Hei Huya, and sent it to the Zhou family. This will let Di Hanxin know where the person is and he will find a way to rescue him. Sure enough, Master Zhou immediately sent it to the palace after receiving the letter, and Emperor Hanxin secretly sent experts to rescue him. This year is the first year after the death of the late Emperor. As the New Year is approaching, the Queen Mother is going to Guoqing Temple to pray for the Emperor. She needs to be accompanied by the Queen Mother and fast for seven days to show her filial piety. After the two of them left in grand style, they each occupied a courtyard in the temple. In the evening, the Queen Mother went to talk to Min Yiyi. Min Yiyi left, and the Queen Mother asked: "Yiyi, have you ever fasted before?" Min Yiyi shook her head: "Except for eating porridge when I was sick when I was a child, I seem to eat meat every day." The Queen Mother said: "Then I have wronged you this time." Min Yiyi said: "What did the mother say? This is what a daughter-in-law should do." At this time, the person next to them brought tea and placed it in front of the Queen Mother and Min Yiyi. "Try this vegetarian milk tea." The Queen Mother said, "It's unique here. The Ai family likes it very much." After saying that, she picked up and drank most of the bowl in one gulp. Min Yiyi also tasted it, and it tasted really good. She couldn't help but drink a few more sips. The Queen Mother said: "How is Xiaotang doing in the Zhou family? Are you still used to it?" Min Yiyi shook her sleeves and said, "Master Zhou came into the palace a few days ago to report that she was safe! Xiaotang is fine, so don't worry, Queen Mother." The Queen Mother nodded and said nothing. The servants all left one after another, and soon they were the only two people left in the room.
