"The slave and maid like the king very much, and want to have a place beside the king." Red Pepper rubbed Ye Lang's chest and looked at him with charming eyes.

Ye Lang laughed, hugged the red pepper in his arms again, and took good care of it.

The next day, as Red Pepper wished, she became the first concubine of Yelang-Concubine Rou.

When she became a concubine, the first thing she did was to look for Xiao Kite's whereabouts in the palace, she didn't know that Xiao Kite had disappeared, and when she knew that there was no Xiao Kite in the palace, the breath in Red Pepper's chest was just unbearable.

Fortunately, Red Pepper is a smart person and did not provoke Jing Ning.

At the same time, Jing Ning also learned the news of Xiao Kite's disappearance, and she was restless.

But now she can't do anything, the night wave has strengthened the defense in the palace, and now she doesn't even have the right to go out for a walk, and no one else has the right to come in, except for three meals a day, Jing Ning stays in the room at other times.

"Girl, the meal is here."

Jing Ning rubbed his sore forehead and said softly, "Got it, you go down first."

In the end, only two people left to serve the dishes remained.

Jing Ning looked at the two who had never moved, and asked suspiciously, "Didn't I let you go down and wait?"

The two of them glanced sideways at each other and lowered their voices, "Young lady, we were sent by the general. ”

Jing Ning was shocked when she heard the voices of "them".

The two men dressed as women in front of them were Qiu Tianqiu and Qiu Di, who had been working in the kitchen since yesterday, and then waited for today's opportunity to meet Jing Ning.

"You go into the inner room and hide, and I'll go in later." Jing Ning said in a voice that only the three of them could hear.

Hearing this, the two nodded, and quickly flashed into the inner room.

In order not to arouse suspicion, Jing Ning ate a little.

"Come on, get rid of your things!" Jing Ning shouted towards the door.

The palace maid walked in and saw that Jing Ning was the only one, so she asked suspiciously, "Girl, what about the other two?"

Jing Ning also looked at the palace maid suspiciously, and then her eyes widened, pretending to be afraid, "Where are there two people?" Don't you want to scare me? ”

"I'm sorry girl, it's the slave who saw it wrong." The palace maid thought for a while, Xu went out just now, and she didn't pay attention.

When the meals were all removed and everyone went out, Jing Ning closed the door and said to the public that he was going to take a lunch break, and no one was allowed to disturb him.

Jing Ning came to the inner room and saw Qiu Tian coming out from under the bed, and Qiu Di coming out of the wardrobe.

"You tell me how the general let you come, how you got into the palace, and what happened." Jing Ning stared at them with a serious face.

After a while, the two of them brought everything Jing Ning wanted to know, including the matter of letting Xiao Yuan leave from the secret passage.

Jing Ning heard that there was a secret passage, and his eyes were happy, "Where is this secret passage?" ”

Perhaps, she can also sneak out along the secret passage, and if she is lucky, she can even meet Xiao Kite.

"Young lady, the secret passage has been discovered..."Qiu Tian touched his head and said embarrassedly.

Before coming to the side palace, Qiu Tian went to the secret passage and found a group of guards there, so Ye Lang must have discovered the secret passage.

"Will there be anything wrong with the kite?" Jing Ning's heart tightened, if Xiao Yuan was caught, he would definitely be tortured by the night waves.

I saw Qiu Tian shaking his head, "The secret passage does not lead to Yeliang Country, but a remote town in Xia Kingdom, next to it is Ning Kingdom, and the eldest lady has a silver tael from her subordinates, so nothing will happen." ”

When Jing Ning heard this, a hanging heart relaxed.

Now, Jing Ning's every move is under the supervision of the night waves, Qiu Tian and they can't rescue her at all, and now they can only wait for an opportunity.

……

When Xiao Yuan woke up, it was already two days later.

The shopkeeper's * was too heavy, making her sleep for two days, she opened her eyes and saw an antique room, incense burning in the incense burner, next to a desk, and a bookshelf.

The whole room is furnished like that of a man.

Xiao Yuan half-propped up the bed and sat up, * it hadn't completely passed, and now she could still feel a moment of dizziness.

"Girl, you're awake!" A young girl in a black dress walked in, with a half-mask on her face, revealing her small lips and high nose.

"Excuse me, where is this?" Xiao Yuan looked around, frowning slightly.

"This is the Jade Palace." The girl replied with a smile.

Xiao Yuan was stunned in his heart, Xia Guo? She hadn't heard of this country, "Is this far away from Ning Guo?" ”

"Ning Guo?" The girl closed her eyes and thought for a moment, "It's not far." Is the girl from Ningguo? ”

Xiao Yuan nodded, she didn't hide it, she was going to find her brother, but she came to Xia Guo by mistake.

The girl smiled and didn't say anything, but asked Xiao Yuan to get up and eat.

Regarding the Ning State, everyone now knows that it was divided from the Zhao State and formed by Xiao Rin, that is, the victorious general of the Zhao State who established himself as the king.

"What's your name? And how did I end up here? Xiao Yuan has been hungry for two days, and he has long been unable to take care of his image, and he eats in a big gulp.

The girl stood aside and explained to Xiao Yuan what had happened in the past two days.

The black-clothed girl in front of her is called Ning Ke'er, and the man in blue who saved Xiao Yuan that day is the Jade King, named Xia Longyu, the third prince of the Xia Kingdom.

Xiao Yuan listened as if she didn't understand, until she had her belly full.

"Can you take me to him, then? I want to thank him personally. Xiao Kite burped and looked up to Ning Ke'er and said.

"The prince has entered the palace now, and he won't come back until tonight." Ning Ke'er smiled slightly.

When Xiao Yuan heard it, he said lightly Okay, he originally planned to thank him earlier, and then leave Xia Guo and go back to find Xiao Rin, but now it seems that he will have to wait until tomorrow to leave.

From Ning Ke'er's mouth, Xiao Yuan learned about this Jade Palace.

The Jade King's Mansion is usually deserted, basically lifeless, if it weren't for the people walking around, it would look like a long-vacant house, the biggest reason for this is that Xia Longyu is a person who likes to be clean, whether it is in the room or outside the room, he asks for quiet.

Under Ning Keer's introduction, Xiao Yuan began to walk around the Jade King's Mansion.

The Jade King's Mansion is very large, just like the General's Mansion, but there is no one else except for the subordinates.

"Ke'er, why doesn't this Jade King Mansion have... Uh, it's the Jade King's relatives? In Xiao Kite's cognition, a home must have a family to be considered a family.

Hearing Xiao Kite's question, Ning Ke'er smiled stiffly, "This, the girl still asks the prince." ”

"Oh! Don't call me girly, just call me Xiao Kite. Xiao Yuan said with a grin.

Ning Ke'er was stunned and smiled dumbly, "Miss Xiao." ”

"......" Xiao Yuan was speechless for a while when she heard this title, it was better to call Miss Xiao girl, and save wasting her tongue and adding an extra word.
