That afternoon, Qingyi and Baili Qingyan, as well as Cui Kong entered the palace to see the truth. All ministers have been dissolved and the court meeting has been concluded without a settlement.
In the palace courtyard, Qingyi passed by several ministers who talked about the events inside the court hall earlier, which led to King Changle being detained.
“What will he be about until it has to be withheld?” ask Qingyi.
Cui Kong was about to answer him, but Baili Qingyan first said, “Maybe this has something to do with what you said earlier.”
“Wait! Don't tell me he's under arrest for defying the Emperor's wish to marry Liu Erniang to the Third Prince?” guess Qingyi.
Cui Kong nodded. Qingyi held back her anger, her hands clenched until her nails turned white. The catch is always right and right. But, isn't the time so bad?
Baili Qingchen had just recovered, and she was still in recovery! That man could really die if he had to stay inside the prison!
The prison warden gave Qingyi permission to enter, on the condition that she would have to enter alone. Cui Kong and Baili Qingyan were forced to wait for him outside. Inside the dingy, stuffy, smelly prison, Qingyi was guided towards the cell where Baili Qingchen was being held.
The man seemed to be sitting on a straw-robed couch contemplating. His calm gaze instantly changed the moment Qingyi came.
“Why are you here?” ask Baili Qingchen.
“Saving you,” replied the girl.
“You want to break into jail?”
“If you must, I will do it.”
Baili Qingchen needed to advise his wife before the girl did things beyond reason. With that temper, Qingyi would definitely break into the prison to release him. If it happens and fails, who languished here not only himself. Baili Qingchen prepared her words first.
“Listen to me. Don't be rash. Get out of here and stay in the mansion,” orders Baili Qingchen.
“Fucking emperor! How dare he imprison you! I'll kick him!”
The girl did not heed her husband's orders. All that was in his eyes right now was a burning rage. The prison warden shuddered to see Princess Empress Changle's expression. Scary, too, so scary.
“Do not screw up! You could die if you were careless! Listen to me,” sergeant Baili Qingchen.
He asked Qingyi to come closer to him, then Baili Qingchen started whispering a few words which made Qingyi repeatedly frown.
“You sure?”
Baili Qingchen nodded.
“Then, hang on for a few hours here."
After saying so, Qingyi left the prison. Outside, Baili Qingyan and Cui Kong waited faithfully, then directly terrorized him with various questions. Instead of replying, Qingyi instead told them to shut up if Baili Qingchen wanted to get out sooner.
Baili Qingyan wondered what way her sister-in-law had to free her brother. Clearly, it must be beyond his expectations. He also had to think of himself, because the beginning of this incident had to do with him. His fate is at stake too. If he can, he should leave as soon as possible.
“Kong, tell Xiao Junjie to keep quiet and do nothing.”
“But, how about Her Royal Highness the Princess?”
“Just obey me!” exclaim Qingyi.
“Then what about me?” baili Qingyan asked.
For Baili Qingyan, Qingyi told her to remain silent in her palace until the situation was under control.
They split up near the main gate. Cui Kong returned to the mansion, while Baili Qingyan to her palace. Qingyi herself was still silent where she stood.
Earlier, Baili Qingchen told her to do something to release him, but Qingyi hesitated because the way the man gave her was too extreme than breaking into the prison. For five minutes, he stood there. After which, he turned his body around and walked towards the Harem Palace complex.
The person she wanted to meet was Consort Dowager Sun. Her father-in-law was standing in the imperial garden, by the edge of the lotus pond whose water was calm. He looked over when Qingyi came. His face looked calm, yet that calm face could not fool Qingyi. Consort Dowager Sun was clearly in a panic.
“Mistress, can you tell me the whole story?” qingyi asked without greeting first.
“My son defies the will of the Emperor before everyone. The Emperor was angry and considered him impolite. It was common for princes like.”
Dowager Consort Sun was like indifferent. Qingyi understood now, she regretted having come here because Consort Dowager Sun turned out to have no way of freeing Baili Qingchen.
Not wanting to waste any time, he immediately left the place. He turned to Empress Dowager Ming's palace to see the situation, then turned back because there was a small banquet held by the widow of the previous emperor.
That sickening palace really made Qingyi want to vomit. He's been circling for a long time but he's lost. Fortunately there was a servant who showed him the way until he could get out of there. Even though it was already afternoon, his spirit to free Baili Qingchen never set in.
Arriving at the mansion, he was greeted by Xiao Junjie's question. A man is like a woman whose husband is taken by someone. Qingyi was too tired to serve him, and she had also run out of energy if she argued with him.
“Attractive!” qingyi. Yinghao jumped off his shoulder and turned into a human.
“Yinghao, you lost. Maintain your human form and be my servant,” he said when he remembered the bet a few days ago.
Yinghao though did not accept, but also could not resist. He nodded reluctantly.
“We're in action tonight!”
“Master, you want to break into jail?”
“No, it's too troublesome. Better to just meet the core of the problem!”
Yinghao was resigned to the crazy thing that his master would do later. Qingyi plans to infiltrate the palace tonight. His goal was the learning hall of Emperor Baili.
According to him, lately Emperor Baili has gone too far. The man who was as annoying as Xiao Junjie seemed to have forgotten his agreement with Qingyi. Then let him remind her once more.
After resting for a few hours and having dinner, Qingyi quietly walked out of the mansion and entered the palace. The study room of Emperor Baili who had been visited at that time now he came back.
The layout and content are still the same, except for the pile of reports that are getting more and more. The dim lights of the candles in the room made the atmosphere feel peaceful and elegant.
Just like before, the incoming Emperor Baili was very surprised to see Qingyi there. His premonitions and feelings suddenly turned unpleasant. Qingyi turned around and threw her mysterious smile.
Emperor Baili's feathers goosebumps. But, his self-mastery was too good until his expression did not change. He stared intently at Qingyi like an eagle that was about to prey on a snake.
“You came over the matter of King Changle's detention?”
“Yang Mulia is getting more responsive. You guessed correctly.”
Emperor Baili sighed harshly and sat down on his dragon seat. This girl came to look for trouble with him. It was also possible that he had come to take revenge for the incident at the small banquet the other day. Furious, but Emperor Baili could not act recklessly on this girl.
“He will be out after three days,” said Emperor Baili.
Qingyi smirked.
“I didn't come to persuade you. Your Honor, it seems you forgot what I said the other day.”
Emperor Baili was unwilling to lose to Qingyi's intimidation. An emperor seemed impossible to lose to a girl. He stared intently at Qingyi with a million unpredictable thoughts.
The atmosphere inside was so quiet as the two of them were squealing through the gaze of eyes as sharp as an eagle. Either Qingyi or Emperor Baili, the two were in a cold war.
“Cih, only Princess Consort Changle alone, has dared to teach me?”
“I have the right to teach you even without that status.”
Qingyi held onto an ink brush, then scribbled a word on the blank paper. “Jingyi”, the character is engraved there clearly. Black and pretty big. Emperor Baili looked at him, then threw his gaze back at Qingyi.
Emperor Baili's reaction made Qingyi want to laugh out loud. Angered, annoyed, mixed with curiosity was the best expression the current Emperor Baili could display.
“Jingyi Cavalry?” mummy Emperor Baili.
His ferocious expression increasingly looked scary when seen by ordinary people. Not with Qingyi, because she was already used to facing such a person. Moreover, the figure in front of him was merely a character.
“Your Majesty, think well. Three days is too long.”
Emperor Baili clenched his fists, restraining the turbulent fury within his chest. Damn it, he thought his uncle had completely lost his power over the military. In fact, there is still something left and it is a mystery.
yahya had once said that the Jingyi Cavalry was very powerful and could only be ruled with a golden tiger plaque. Because it was so mysterious, then none other than his father knew the location of the golden tiger plaque.
Should he give back?
Twice the girl had come to him and threatened him in a different way. The hatred of Emperor Baili towards King Changle and all his people grew even greater.
Those whitened knuckles had almost ruptured his veins, and that extremely unfriendly face was already unsightly.
Qingyi's sinister sneer began to shrink after she finished her words. The girl deliberately nudged a pile of state reports until they fell.
With a bashful girl-like laugh, she said, “Ups. Book's down. Your Majesty, don't forget to tell the eunuch to tidy it up again. Your aunt said goodbye first.”
Emperor Baili growled furiously. Qingyi disappeared like swallowed by night.
