Chapter 111 She Can't Stay
After Xu Yaoyao climbed down the small chair, she used her hands and feet to chase in the direction the Sixth Prince left.

She climbed very fast and soon saw the figure of the Sixth Prince.

Xu Yaoyao struggled to stand up with the help of the stone beside her, and saw the Sixth Prince and the servant who had nodded to him before walking towards the side hall one after another.

There are several side rooms in the side hall, which are mainly used for people attending the birthday banquet to change clothes temporarily.

It was indeed reasonable for the Sixth Prince to get his clothes wet and then change them in a side hall, and anyone who saw it would not have doubted it.

If Xu Yaoyao hadn't known the Sixth Prince's ambition and hadn't accidentally seen someone communicating with him via signals, she probably wouldn't have had any suspicions.

However, there is a lotus pond in front of the side hall. If you want to go to the side hall, you have to walk across the stone bridge over the lotus pond.

After Xu Yaoyao climbed over the stone bridge, she found that the Sixth Prince had disappeared.

Because Xu Yaoyao was relatively short when she climbed and her vision was blocked by the stone bridge, she did not see which room the Sixth Prince and his companions entered.

Fortunately, there are not many side rooms, only about seven or eight, so it is not difficult to find them.

So Xu Yaoyao started looking from the leftmost room.

Every time she climbed to the door of a compartment, she would push the door open a crack.

He searched all the way like this until he found the room on the far right, and then he saw the figure of the Sixth Prince.

Xu Yaoyao lay down through the crack in the door and looked inside, and found that the servant who had previously passed the signal to the Sixth Prince was standing in the room, seemingly waiting for the Sixth Prince.

After a while, the Sixth Prince came out from behind the screen.

He had changed his clothes.

It seems that the Sixth Prince changed his clothes first after arriving at the side room.

As expected, the male protagonist is very meticulous in his work and leaves no loopholes.

"Is everything done?" The Sixth Prince spoke slowly.

Although he was only a teenager of seven or eight years old, his tone of voice was extremely calm.

"It's all done."

"I hid the thing in the secret compartment of the prince's bedroom. He shouldn't be able to find it."

"Tomorrow, the people we have planted on the prince's side will take the initiative to report to the emperor." The servant replied.

The Sixth Prince curled his lips.

"very good."

"Even if the prince was born with a strange sign, so what? As long as the emperor is alienated from him, his position as the crown prince will not be stable."

Xu Yaoyao listened to the conversation between the two and suddenly remembered the plot of the original book.

Shortly after the Empress Dowager's birthday banquet, the Crown Prince was suddenly reprimanded by Emperor Mingde and imprisoned in the Eastern Palace, where he remained for five years.

However, the Sixth Prince took advantage of these five years to win over many court officials and his power expanded rapidly.

Because the prince was just a cannon fodder, the book does not specify what mistake the prince made that led to him being imprisoned by Emperor Mingde.

Now it seems that it must be related to the things that the Sixth Prince had someone hide in the Crown Prince's bedroom.

No, she must find a way to inform the Crown Prince.

Just when Xu Yaoyao wanted to turn around and crawl away, her little body was suddenly picked up by someone.

At the same time, Princess Chaoyang looked at Xu Yaoyao out of habit, but found that Xu Yaoyao was gone.

"Where is Yaoyao?" Princess Chaoyang exclaimed.

Yuan Xiang, who was watching the performance, turned pale instantly when she heard what Princess Chaoyang said.

"The little princess was here just now, how come she disappeared?"

The Empress Dowager and Emperor Mingde also heard Princess Chaoyang's voice.

Emperor Mingde hurriedly stopped the music and dance.

The Queen Mother's expression changed immediately, "Qing'er, what's going on? Where's Yaoyao?"

Princess Chaoyang was worried that the Queen Mother was getting sick from worrying herself, so she quickly said, "Maybe the little guy is greedy and has crawled over to someone to steal food." But even though Princess Chaoyang said this, the Queen Mother's worries were still there.

She looked at the people at the birthday party who were staring at each other in bewilderment and said, "Why are you all still standing there? My little granddaughter is missing. Everyone, hurry up and see if there's anyone next to you!"

"Yes, Queen Mother."

The prince was also very anxious. He nodded at the queen, then stood up with the queen, each taking their maids and attendants to look for her.

The Queen and Princess Chaoyang were mainly looking for seats for concubines and princesses in the harem.

The crown prince was responsible for searching near the seats of the princes.

He also searched the seats of every female member of the family, even under the table.

However, after searching all the seats, everyone still did not see Xu Yaoyao.

This made everyone anxious.

Emperor Mingde immediately ordered the birthday banquet to end ahead of schedule, closed the palace gates, and placed the entire palace under martial law, with the Imperial Guards searching with the birthday banquet as the center.

Yaoyao is Qing'er's daughter and the lucky star of Fusu Kingdom. No accidents must happen to her.

The prince was really worried, so he asked for permission to take a team of royal guards to look for him.

Princess Chaoyang and the Queen also brought a group of palace maids and eunuchs to search.

When Emperor Chao De saw that the Empress Dowager was almost fainting from anxiety, he quickly had someone help her back to Changshou Palace.

And on the Sixth Prince's side.

Xu Yaoyao was sitting at the table.

She had a small milk jug hanging around her neck and was staring into the eyes of the three people opposite her.

"Sixth brother, have you thought it through? What should we do with this little guy? Should we send him back to the birthday party?"

The speaker was the second princess, Di Yuling, daughter of Concubine Ning, who just turned thirteen this year.

Just now, when Xu Yaoyao was eavesdropping at the door, she was caught in the act and dragged right in.

Xu Yaoyao only knew who she was when she heard the guards call her the second princess.

She looked at Di Yuling's face and recalled the plot in the book.

Concubine Ning had been in the palace for more than ten years, but she only gave birth to a daughter and no son.

In addition, Concubine Ning was not very favored, so after entering the palace for more than ten years, she was unable to obtain the position of concubine.

For the sake of her and Di Yuling's future, she has always wanted to find a prince to support her.

The Sixth Prince, whose mother died young and who is deeply favored by the Emperor, is undoubtedly the best target.

It so happened that the Sixth Prince also needed help in his bid to seize power, so he and Concubine Ning hit it off and became each other's allies.

However, what Concubine Ning never expected was that she was actually courting disaster.

After the Sixth Prince seized the throne, he even did not spare Concubine Ning and Di Yuling.

After all, the Sixth Prince hated the entire royal family, so how could he let go of Emperor Mingde’s women and daughter?

So after the success, the Sixth Prince directly awarded the two of them to the soldiers who followed him in the rebellion, causing them to be tortured to death by those soldiers.

Xu Yaoyao thought about the fate of the two of them and felt very sad.

I just don't know if Sheng Qining was involved in the Sixth Prince's frame-up of the Crown Prince? And how much did she participate?
Just as the little fellow was thinking seriously, the Sixth Prince finally spoke slowly.

"For safety reasons, you must not stay."

Di Yuling's expression changed slightly when he heard this.

She looked at Xu Yaoyao and found that Xu Yaoyao was also looking at her with her big eyes, with an innocent and lovely look.

Di Yuling couldn't help but feel compassion.

"She's still so young, she probably didn't understand what you were saying just now. Could it be that Sixth Brother is worried that she might tell others?"
