Now, she should focus on taking care of the baby.
Otherwise, this child might not be able to keep up with her daily stressors.
Upon hearing this, Shao Youyue’s tears fell. “If I don’t go to Changyu, how can I find my son…
“Your other brother is looking for him at Changyu. It’s fine if you don’t go.” The four maids consoled her.
After a pause, Xia Han said with a face full of joy, “Master, think about it. We just left the palace and found that you were pregnant again. Isn’t this the blessing of the heavens? The heavens are definitely blessing you now. This means that your son will definitely be found soon. Let’s go back to the palace, shall we? What do you think?”
“No, we can’t go back to the palace. You can’t make me return to the palace!” Shao Youyue suddenly became agitated. She hugged her head as if she had received a huge shock.
The four maids were shocked and quickly followed Shao Youyue’s words. “Alright, alright, alright. We won’t return to the palace. We won’t return for now. Please master, don’t scare us. We won’t return to the palace. Wherever you want to go, we’ll follow you. Don’t be afraid. We’re all here with you.”
Only then did Shao Youyue calm down.
The four maids no longer dared to mention anything about returning to the palace.
It was Shao Youyue who said after a long time, “I’m going to find Shuting. He should be in the southern military camp. He should be close by.”
“Alright, alright, alright. Let’s go find your brother.” Fearing that their master would be agitated again, the four maids quickly agreed.
Because she knew that she was pregnant, Shao Youyue cheered herself up even more. Even if she couldn’t eat at all, she forced herself to eat.
Early the next morning, Shao Youyue got into the carriage again. This time, the carriage did not go North but South.
Yesterday, the carriage was in a hurry. Today, considering that Shao Youyue was pregnant, the carriage naturally moved much slower. It would probably take two days to reach the southern military camp.
This morning, Shao Shuting was discussing matters with some generals when he suddenly heard that the Emperor had sent someone over. He shoved the matters aside and wanted to see the person sent by the Emperor.
It was one of the Emperor’s secret guards.
The secret guard handed him a letter.
He opened it and was shocked. His sister had actually secretly left the palace.
She left the palace in the afternoon the day before and was now outside.
The fact that the letter had reached his hands so quickly meant that he knew that the secret guard had killed countless horses along the way and had not taken a break.
Naturally, the fewer people who knew about his sister outside the palace, the better. Shao Shuting did not plan to tell his father, lest his father get angry and worried. Instead, he sent people to secretly follow the road from the Imperial Capital to Changyu to find his sister.
He could only think of one possibility for his sister to leave the palace, and that was to go to Changyu to look for her son.
Even if he did not have to rush to send his sister back to the palace, it was always good to have more people to protect his sister in secret.
Fortunately, the Ji family and Consort Yi did not know that his sister was not in the palace. The Emperor would definitely be in the palace to cover for his sister, so he did not have to worry too much about that.
In the blink of an eye, another day passed.
It was morning again, Shao Shuting was letting Shiye accompany him to practice the way of the sword. Just as the two of them were fighting to their heart’s content, suddenly, there was a small report from the garrison camp gate.
“General, someone is holding the Shao family’s token and is currently outside the military camp. They want to see you.”
“The Shao family’s token? Is it Xue Yan and Jiang Yue?” Shao Shuting was pleasantly surprised with this information. He hurriedly threw the sword to Shiye and quickly walked to the main gate of the military camp.
He wanted to personally bring the two little devils in..
