Shen Xihe was so angry that she didn't even want the Painting of Apricot Blossoms and Rain that Xiao Huayong gave her, and strode out of the East Palace.
Who would have known that at dusk, Tian Yuan brought the painting and begged with a bitter face: "Princess, if I can't do my job well, Your Highness will punish me to dig in the east. Princess, please be kind."
Shen Xihe didn't like her affairs to affect others. If she really didn't want the painting, she would send it back personally.
Seeing Shen Xihe accept it, Tian Yuan thanked him profusely, and then said: "Princess, His Highness said that the East Palace will be busy tomorrow, and the princess likes quietness, so why not take a walk around the palace."
This means that she doesn't have to go to the Eastern Palace tomorrow. No matter if Xiao Huayong feels guilty and dares not invite her to the Eastern Palace again, or if there is really something going on in the Eastern Palace tomorrow, Shen Xihe really doesn't want to go to the Eastern Palace. Xiao Huayong really makes her lose her composure and want to commit violence against others anytime and anywhere.
"Is there any news outside the palace?" After washing up at night, Shen Xihe looked in the mirror and asked Zhenzhu as he was about to rest.
Zhenzhu was laying out the quilt for Shen Xihe: "Mo Yuan is watching, no matter whether it is the Princess's Mansion or the Shen Mansion, there is nothing."
Shen Xihe sent Mo Yuan to guard the Shen Mansion, partly because he was worried that he would implicate Shen Yingruo, and also because if Munuha was about to attack Shen Yingruo, he could be captured.
Before Shen Xihe could ask again, Zhenzhu added, "The city gates are under martial law, so they probably haven't left the city yet. But the envoys have been making a lot of noise recently, so it's time for them to return home."
It's not that we don't sympathize with Your Majesty, but we have to give them an exact date so that they can have hope. They can't be trapped like this forever. Munuha's disappearance was also considered strange by the Turkish envoys.
They insisted that if Munuha wanted to escape, he should have fled before the people from Jingzhao Prefecture arrived.
It is a fact that they were arrested in Yingtian Prefecture. They are foreigners and there is no way they could escape from the prison in Jingzhao Prefecture. Munuha must not have fled because of fear of crime. If they had not seen that Munuha and Princess Yangling's body were not the same person, they would have probably fought back.
"Where will he hide?" Shen Xihe didn't want Munuha to escape from the city, which would be a huge trouble.
But all the places she could think of were filled with burials, and three days had passed, and Munuha seemed to have disappeared out of thin air.
"Munuha is not injured. We just need to find a place with sufficient food and water to hide." Zhenzhu felt that it was normal that she couldn't find him. After all, Kyoto was so big. Since she could rescue Munuha from Jingzhao Prefecture, it would be even easier to hide people.
"I think the person has most likely left the city." Shen Xihe had a bad feeling.
Your Majesty was delayed for some time by the matter of Xiao Huayong. After Your Majesty had learned the reasons clearly, he went to interrogate Munuha. It took about half an hour to an hour. During this time, Yin Zhang sent Munuha to Jingzhao Prefecture. As it involved the princess's betrayal, he had no right to interfere. He was more focused on collecting evidence and presenting it to Your Majesty when he interrogated him.
If she rescued Munuha, she would have guessed that His Majesty would impose martial law on the city gates. Only before they noticed that Munuha had been rescued could she successfully send him away.
Zhenzhu's face was solemn. She also felt that this man let Munuha go because of the princess.
"It's impossible for his pair of blue eyes to be dormant..." Shen Xihe said, and the image of Xiao Huayong with his eyes covered by a cloth suddenly appeared in his mind.
