. Then, just as he was starting to feel better, the big bug forced her into the woods.The villagers had searched for so long and found no trace of her. He still prayed that she would be alright, but h...When An Xuetang's people found her and analyzed that Xiaohong had a problem, she instinctively didn't believe it and wanted to refute for Xiaohong.

Over the years, she and Xiaohong have depended on each other. She wouldn't suspect anyone else, not even Xiaohong.

Kening'er's evidence left her speechless. She knew Xiaohong's embroidery better than anyone, so she could instantly recognize the handkerchiefs and men's garments Kening'er brought as Xiaohong's work.

No one could imagine how hard it was for her to accept at that time, but when she carefully thought about Xiaohong's every move in recent times, she couldn't help but notice that she had already changed.

Before, Little Red would hardly leave her side for a moment, fearing that something might happen to her flower during the time she was away.

Little Red has seemed different these days. She runs outside frequently now, and the worry that used to cloud her face is gone. Instead, there's a hint of shyness and sometimes even a dazed look in her eyes.

She has been busy poisoning the emperor lately and hasn't cared much for Xiaohong. Who would have known that during this time, she would be deceived into going somewhere else

Ning'er has already found out that Xiaohong is involved with an Imperial Guard within the palace. It's been confirmed that Xiaohong hasn't actually delivered her letters to anyone from Beijang王府 these past few times.

But at this very moment, Xiaohong, after shouting at Huaduo'er, already regretted it. However, she still didn't want Huaduo'er to poison that man.

Right now, she had no mind to think about why the flower knew who she was contacting. All she could think about was preventing the flower from harming that man.

So she didn't see the disappointment in Hua Duo'er's eyes at all. In a hurry, she explained to her, "Miss, please don't hurt him. He truly cares for me. He said that once everything settles down, he will carry me home in a palanquin."

"...." Please provide me with the text you would like me to translate. I'm ready!

The little flower pursed her lips, silently watching Xiao Hong. She had always wanted her to leave and find someone to live a good life with.

She really didn't want Xiaohong to go on adventures with her, so at that time she really wanted to find a good place for her. And at that time, with An Xuetang's help, she could also find a reliable man for Xiaohong.

He would provide her with a generous dowry, ensuring she lived comfortably for the rest of her life.

No matter how she tried to persuade her, Little Red just wouldn't budge.

After a long silence, Huaduo closed her eyes and took a deep breath. When she opened them again, there was no ripple in her eyes. She looked at Xiaohong calmly and spoke softly, "So you want to get married"

"Yes, mistress, he...he is truly good to me."

Then, fearing Huahua wouldn't believe her, she quickly took out a stone from her waist.

On this stone, densely written are a few small characters: "Vast mountains and rivers, the Milky Way of humanity, none are you, none are not you."

The little flower, seeing such crude methods, suddenly smiled.

So, was Xiaohong tricked by such sweet words

So that man was able to deceive her completely with just one sentence

Before the flower could even speak, Xiaohong continued, "He... he is a close confidant of the Crown Prince. He was there when the Crown Prince was recovering from his broken arm at the Northern Border Prince's Residence."

He told me that he had feelings for me when we were at the Beijang Palace, but at that time His Royal Highness the Crown Prince needed him to escort me to Beijang, and he couldn't stay. He was afraid of holding me back, so he didn't confess his feelings to me.

He who went to the northern frontier thought day and night of his servant girl, and thus… just inscribed these characters on this random stone he picked up.

At that moment, Huāduǒ clearly saw a blush appear on Xiǎohóng's face, and her eyes dimmed slightly.

It seems Xiaohong has given her heart away.

It won't be easy to get her out.

Then, the little red whispered to her, "Miss, he… he really, really likes me. When he learned that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince needed someone to send a message back to the capital, he volunteered for this dangerous mission, even though it was fraught with peril and could cost him his life."

"...."

Hua Duo'er listened more and more, feeling that things were getting ridiculous. She really hadn't expected Xiaohong to be so gullible. Just a random stone with a word carved on it could move her to the point of not being able to distinguish truth from falsehood.

"Miss, I beg you, please don't harm him."

“He… he hasn’t done anything wrong to you, Miss. We… we did this for your own good. The Crown Prince has already promised that when he ascends the throne, he will make you his empress. Then, Miss, you can be with the one you have loved for so long forever. Our maid was also married to one of the Crown Prince’s trusted confidants, and she will still be by your side.”

"!"

Huāduǒr wore a speechless expression, but she truly didn't know how to tell Xiǎohóng so that she would believe that the man had been deceiving her from beginning to end.

He stared at Xiao Hong in silence for a moment, then tentatively asked, "Do you think he might be lying to you"

Of course not.

Without any hesitation, Xiaohong blurted out the answer.

The little flower knew that no matter what she said now, Little Red wouldn't believe her.

Then, after a moment of silence, she said, "Well then, bring him to see me. You've been by my side for many years, and now that you've found someone who truly cares for you, I'm happy for you. Bring him here, and I will personally hand you over to him, instructing him to treat you well."

Xiaohong's mind was indeed simple. Hearing Huaduo say this, she instantly forgot the tense atmosphere between them just a moment ago.

And there was almost no doubt about the truth of Huahua's words.

She immediately stood up, “I… I’ll go get him right now.”

He turned and ran out.ntage of this opportunity to reclaim the city that was lost last time. As for the matter of punishment, why not wait for the fifth brother to return to the capital before discussing it After all...the...
