Other than Fire Phoenix, who already knew this would happen, everyone else was dumbfounded.
They were just worried that the three children would be captured by the Shadow Guards. If that happened, they would really lose their lives. Before they could even finish thinking about it, the few top Shadow Guards were already lying on the ground moaning. Even Teng Ye was trampled on the ground and could not move.
At this time, Song Jiong had already heard the news and rushed out. When he saw Teng Ye being stepped on by a child, his jaw almost dropped.
"What... What's going on?" Didn't they say Teng Ye wanted to capture Mo Mingxi? Although Mo Rongzhan wasn't the Emperor anymore, their status in the Jin Kingdom couldn't be underestimated. If Teng Ye really did anything to Mo Mingxi, then he really wouldn't be able to save Teng Ye.
"Lord Song, you came at the right time. My cousin wanted to find Cousin Ming Yu, but Teng Ye didn't let anyone inform us. He even said that we trespassed the palace. We were clearly standing here and didn't even touch the palace gate." Ye Mucheng shouted loudly, but his eyes were glowing as he stared at Ming Xi.
Fire Phoenix looked at Ye Mucheng with admiration. This child looked silly, but he was quite smart at the crucial moment.
Ming Xi had never intended to kill Teng Ye. Seeing that someone had come out of the palace, he kicked Teng Ye away. His clear and elegant little face carried a smile as he looked at Song Jiong. "My Lord, could you help us pass a message? We have something to discuss with Ming Yu."
"That..." Song Jiong pulled his gaze back from Teng Ye with difficulty, "The Emperor has ordered that if you want to find Princess Ming Yu, you can enter the palace. There's no need to pass a message."
This was ordered in the morning, so he thought Teng Ye knew. Why was he still stopping Mo Mingxi?
Ming Xi smiled and bowed, "Thank you, Lord."
"Please." Song Jiong returned the greeting and invited Ming Xi and the others into the palace.
"You guys, quickly send Lord Teng back." Song Jiong ordered his subordinates and looked deeply at Teng Ye. He really didn't know how to persuade this good friend of his. Teng Ye was always stubborn and didn't listen to other people's advice. He thought that his own way of thinking was right. Now, he had suffered a loss again. Moreover, he was beaten to this state by a child. If this matter were to spread, it would not be a glorious thing for him.
Murong Ke was reading memorials in the Imperial Study. When he heard what happened outside the palace, his eyes became dark and gloomy.
On the other hand, Ford, who was waiting on the side, began to worry about Ming Xi, not knowing if he would be injured.
"Go and see Mingxi. Bring him to see Ming Yu." Murong Ke waved his hand and dismissed Fu De.
Rainsford returned the salute. "Yes, Your Majesty."
I can finally see His Highness! Ford almost burst into tears. He hurriedly left the imperial study and saw Ming Xi on the long red-walled road.
"Your Highness." Ford knelt down. "Your servant greets Your Highness. Your Highness has grown up. This old servant almost didn't recognize you."
Ming Xi recognized him as Ford, who had once served Mo Rongzhan closely. He stepped forward and helped him up. "Don't call me Your Highness. It'll cause a misunderstanding. Just call me Young Master."
"How can I do that? His Royal Highness is His Royal Highness …" After Fu De finished speaking, he suddenly remembered that the current Emperor was not the previous Emperor, and he almost burst into tears. "Young Master is here to look for Her Royal Highness, right? This servant will take you there."
"The palace hasn't changed much. I can still recognize the way," Ming Xi said.
Ford kept looking at Ming Xi. In the past, His Royal Highness didn't talk much. However, today's prince seemed to be different. Not only did he look more like the previous Emperor, he also seemed to have a lot more spiritual energy.
"There really hasn't been much change in the palace. It's still the same." Ford said in a low voice. "This servant heard that you met with an obstruction outside. Are you hurt?"
"No, it's just a small problem," Ming Xi said with a smile.
Ford was relieved and brought Ming Xi to find Ming Yu.
Ming Yu was worried that the Grand Tutor had left her with too much homework. She was holding an osmanthus cake in one hand and a brush in the other as she lamented. When she heard that Ming Xi had come to find her, she was stunned.
"Cousin Ming Yu." Ye Musheng ran in and called out to Ming Yu.
"Brother Sheng?" Ming Yu came back to her senses and looked at Ye Musheng in surprise. Wasn't Ming Xi looking for her? How did it become Ye Musheng?
Ming Xi and Fire Phoenix followed in and looked at Ming Yu with a smile.
"Why are you guys here?" Ming Yu looked at them and suppressed the joy in her heart. She looked at them expressionlessly.
"There's a temple fair tonight. We're here to bring you out of the palace." Ming Xi looked at Ming Yu and said with a smile.
Even if he didn't want to admit it, after being apart for four years, there was still a gap between him and his sister.
He was working hard to eliminate this gap and turn the unfamiliarity that came from four years of separation into their original tacit understanding.
He and Ming Yu were twins of a dragon and a phoenix. Their hearts were connected and there shouldn't be any gap.
"Temple fair?" Ming Yu immediately put down the brush in her hand and didn't even eat the osmanthus cake. "I almost forgot. There's a temple fair today. Yan Xiaoliu said he would accompany me, but I haven't seen him yet."
"I'll bring you there." Ming Xi said.
Ye Mucheng was afraid that Ming Yu wouldn't go, so he called out, "Cousin, when cousin was coming to find you just now, he was stopped outside the palace gate. Luckily he's good at martial arts, otherwise he would have been caught by the secret guards."
"Why would the Hidden Guards dare to capture you?" Ming Yu frowned, clearly not believing Ye Musheng's words.
"It's true! It's that Teng Ye. He said that Cousin isn't His Royal Highness and that we trespassed into the palace. Luckily Cousin's martial arts are good. You really didn't see it. Cousin is too strong. "Ye Musheng cried out anxiously, afraid that Ming Yu wouldn't believe him.
Ming Yu saw that Ye Musheng didn't seem to be lying and looked at Ming Xi doubtfully. "Teng Ye actually dared to capture you?"
"That's not important." Ming Xi said with a smile. "Do you want to go to the temple fair?"
"Yes!" Ming Yu nodded. She bit her lip and looked at Ming Xi. "You entered the palace to take me to the temple fair?"
Ming Xi smiled and said, "Of course. Why else would I be here?"
"But, I have to go and tell Father," Ming Yu said in a small voice.
"I'll go with you." It wouldn't be right to enter the palace and not pay respects to Murong Ke. Moreover, he had beaten up the Hidden Guards, so he had to go and tell them.
Ming Yu said in a low voice, "Wait, I'll get Ning Xiang to comb my hair."
"Actually, Ming Yu was right to stay back then." Fire Phoenix said in a low voice. "She's not suitable for cultivation."
"Mm, with us protecting her, she's fine like this." Ming Xi said lightly.
Fire Phoenix looked at him. "But she still hasn't forgiven Yao Yao."
"One day, Ming Yu will untie the knot in her heart." Ming Xi said.
When Ming Yu came out again, there was a pair of lifelike little white rabbits on her hair buns.
Ming Xi's eyes flashed with a smile, as bright as the stars.
"Let's go." Ming Yu lifted her chin, purposely not looking at Ming Xi.
