"Oh?" Mao'er looked at Lingqian. The way she spoke did not sound like she was lying.But everyone knew that Princess Huaining was dead.The funeral was extremely grand, and His Majesty personally supported the funeral.

"Do you also want to say that the funeral has been held?" Lingqian replied.

"……"Is not it?

"Of course I haven't. I don't know why you all think that my mother is dead, so why would your majesty support my mother's body? Not at all! My mother is missing. I want to find my mother."

"Where is the princess? Where should we look for her?"

"I don't know either." The little man became frustrated again.

"Then why don't we go back to the mansion first? The prince might be worried about you."

"He has been thinking about finding the step-princess all day long, and he no longer cares about me. They say that if you have a stepmother, sooner or later your biological father will become your stepfather, so I won't go." Lingqian turned around and went back to the carriage, sulking. .

Mao'er looked ahead and was almost at the city gate. Many people were queuing up to leave the city. Suddenly he remembered something, "Ah, I forgot to bring my ID tag. Without the ID tag, we can't leave the capital."

Lingqian frowned and came out of the carriage again.

Mao'er looked apologetic, "How about we go back to the house first?"

Lingqian looked at her for a while and then said: "I didn't bring it either!"

Cat: "..."

It’s such a waste to run away from home...

The two returned to the Huaining Prince's Mansion along the same route.

Then we made an agreement to bring all the things out of Beijing early tomorrow morning.You must not forget anything again.

When Lingqian left, she left all the food she bought outside with Mao'er and returned to the main courtyard.

Because she always cried and made the whole house restless, Yang Xuanling personally took her with her and temporarily stayed at the Huaining Prince's Mansion.

The father and daughter also live in the same courtyard.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw Yang Xuanling playing with flowers and plants in the yard.

Lingqian stopped hesitantly and opened her mouth to say hello, but in the end she closed her mouth tightly and walked towards her west wing.

'Click~' Yang Xuanling cut off a flower branch, "If you don't want to kill the maid named Mao'er for your father, you can run away from home again."

Lingqian's eyes widened suddenly and she strode towards Yang Xuanling angrily.

"Yang Xuanling! If you dare to touch the cat, I will prevent you from seeing the sun tomorrow!" He put his hands on his hips and his eyes were filled with light.

Yang Xuanling looked down at her fierce appearance and suddenly smiled.

Mao'er frowned, "Why are you laughing?"

Yang Xuanling tilted his head slightly with a happy expression, "You are finally willing to talk to your father. It has been one year and 24 days."

"..." Mao'er ignored him lazily, turned around and continued walking towards her room. When she reached the door, she stopped again and looked back.

But she saw that Yang Xuanling had been paying attention to her.

"I...I'm not running away from home, I'm going to find my mother." After saying that, he opened the door and entered the house.

He didn't notice that Yang Xuanling's body swayed slightly, his face instantly turned pale, and his thin lips tightened into a straight line.

……

Cat packed a small bundle.

Qingxiang came back from outside and saw the baggage in her hand and asked, "Hey? Maoer, are you going out?"

"Yes, I went out to do some errands." Mao'er carried the baggage, "I should be back soon."

Young ladies from wealthy families are pampered, and if they say they run away from home, they probably won't be able to go far, and they will come back when they know the journey will be difficult.

"Oh. By the way, I just heard this morning that the selection of concubines at the Founding Duke's Mansion has been cancelled."

"Really?" Mao'er was a little surprised.It is said that King Huaining is young, powerful and handsome, so there is nothing wrong with finding a step-mother.

"Really, who dares to spread lies about Prince Huaining? Also, the fifth lady went to court with the prince this morning."

"Ah?" Mao'er looked at the small bundle in his hand.

It seems like I can’t leave home...

In the court hall, all the civil and military officials looked at Yang Xuanling - the little girl beside him!
Zhao Falcon was also curious, "What does Aiqing mean by this?" Yang Xuanling replied seriously: "Prevent her from running away."

Zhao Falcon: "..."

I'm afraid that if I run away, I can't bring him to court.

"Is this Xiaowu?" It should be.Xiaosi is very obedient, but the youngest one is extremely rebellious. He doesn't even call Yang Xuanling father, but calls him by his first name.

"Yes." Yang Xuanling reached out to touch Lingqian's head.

Lingqian avoided it very flexibly, "Don't touch me."

Yang Xuanling looked helpless.

Everyone was surprised, this girl is so powerful, she has grown up so much.

"Xiao Wu, come here~ I have something fun here." Like a magic trick, Zhao Falcon took out a palm-sized machine bird from the storage ring.

Lingqian was disdainful, "This is just to coax children."

Zhao Falcon: "..."

He's not just kidding!

And his little princesses all loved the things he gave them.

Yang Xuanling leaned over and saluted, "Your Majesty, don't pay attention to her. She had made an appointment to run away from home today, but I was stopped by the minister. She was very angry."

"Oh? Who have you made an appointment with?" Zhao Xuan's eyes sparkled with gossip.

Lingqian replied: "Cat."

Zhao Falcon looked at Yang Xuanling.

Yang Xuanling replied: "A maid from the palace."

Lingqian continued: "She believes that my mother is still alive, and she promised to go with me to find her."

Perhaps because he mentioned someone, Zhao Xuan's expression was dazed for a moment.

After a while, he continued to say to Lingqian: "Then where are you going to look for it?"

"I don't know." Lingqian replied.

Zhao Xuan smiled, "Why don't Xiao Wu look around in the palace first?"

"Probably not. If there was, he would have brought it back to the house long ago." Lingqian glanced at Yang Xuanling.

Yang Xuanling's expression was unpredictable. No one could tell what he was thinking. He said calmly: "Xiaowu, the court is the place where state affairs are handled. You can't talk nonsense anymore and just live in peace."

"You were the one who brought me here." Lingqian curled her lips, but still took two steps towards the edge, indicating that she would not speak anymore.

Zhao Falcon asked the palace servants to prepare tea and refreshments for her before he began to decide on state affairs.

During this period, Yang Xuanling rarely spoke, but every time he spoke, it was basically the final decision.

At first, Lingqian felt that listening to them talking was confusing and boring, but gradually she found it interesting.

The two-and-a-half-hour meeting was over.

The little man actually stopped making trouble at all and listened to the end.

Not to mention Zhao Falcon, even Yang Xuanling was a little surprised.

"Like going to court?" He picked up the little man.

Lingqian didn't resist this time, and thought again, "Will you still bring me here?"

"If you like it, my father can take you." Yang Xuanling hugged her and walked out the door first.

The other ministers and servants behind him followed him until they were out of the door, then dispersed.

Lingqian shook her head, "I still want to find my mother."

Yang Xuanling tightened his arms and said, "My father has asked someone to look for him. If he can't be found, you might turn the world upside down and still not find him, so just wait for news about him at home."

"Who did you trust?" Lingqian asked.

"Your second brother." Yang Xuanling replied.
