Peasant Woman's Decreed Life as a Wife

Chapter 1485: Chapter 1482: Huo Zixing Intervenes

The Elder Princess’s carriage continued forward, only a cold voice came from inside: “Haven’t you made enough laughable mistakes over the years?”

Huo Zixing looked extremely embarrassed, being pulled away, he clenched his fists and watched as the Elder Princess’s carriage departed.

The carriage continued forward, at that moment, an empty carriage caught up with the Huo family’s carriage.

The coachman staggered down and blocked the Huo family’s carriage, panting as he reported: “Old Madam, something has happened at home.”

“What happened?” A worried voice of the old nanny came from inside the carriage.

The coachman reported: “Just received news, there was an incident at the elder household, the cargo team met bandits halfway, and everyone is missing, the lady of the elder household has entered the residence seeking help.”

“The young miss was forced to go out together and has suddenly vanished.”

The coachman whispered the following words; it would ruin Huo Hongyan’s reputation if outsiders heard of her disappearance.

Inside the carriage, Old Madam Huo’s anxious voice indeed sounded: “How could something happen to Hongyan!”

The old nanny, upon hearing this, also grew anxious, suddenly realized something, and her face turned pale.

Zhang Lan, upon hearing this, frowned slightly, showing a worried expression.

Shortly thereafter, Old Madam Huo’s voice sounded again from inside the carriage: “Guard Zhang, take us back to the residence.”

Zhang Lan, feeling urgent, opened his mouth, yet did not know how to stop them.

“I will return with you, if I can be of help, it would be good.”

Excitedly, the old nanny said: “Thank you very much.”

Zhang Lan jumped down from the carriage, quickly walked to the Elder Princess’s carriage, explaining the situation to her.

The Elder Princess lifted the curtain, watching as the Huo family’s carriage turned back, her brow furrowed slightly, remaining silent for a long time.

The nanny beside her also looked over, seeing that the Elder Princess had not spoken, she gently asked: “Your Highness, should we continue to the palace?”

“Yes, continue to the palace.” The Elder Princess was puzzled by the departure of the Huo family, thinking more about it, yet, since she had a suspicion, she wouldn’t give up, the answer should be within the palace.

The Elder Princess’s carriage continued forward.

Upon arriving at the palace gate, the Elder Princess alighted from the carriage.

She wore lavish garments, exuding a compelling aura, and as she glanced around, she suddenly noticed a carriage parked in front of the palace gate, she inquired: “Whose carriage is that?”

A servant went to ask, soon returned, answering: “Your Highness, it is the Chu family’s carriage, Madam Chu has brought the children into the palace summoned by the Empress.”

“Accompanied by her, it seems, is also Old Madam Huo.”

“What? Old Madam Huo?” The Elder Princess squinted her phoenix eyes, suddenly realized something, a sharp gleam flashed in her eyes: “I see.”

“Enter the palace.”

The Elder Princess swiftly produced her identity token and entered the palace.

Inside the palace.

Ye Muyu held Nuanbao in her arms, accompanied by Chu Ziluo and Old Madam Huo.

Leading the way in front were two eunuchs.

Ye Muyu, familiar with the paths, confirmed the correct route to the palace, then gently asked Old Madam Huo: “Old Madam, you will meet the Emperor outside the Imperial Study later, I shall need to go to the Central Palace to see the Empress.”

“I understand, Ah Yu, do not worry about me, this is the Imperial Palace.” Old Madam Huo looked serious, the usual kindness in her face absent, upon closer inspection, one could see her tightly pressed lips, revealing her current unrest.

With the intention of bringing everyone safely into the palace, Ye Muyu couldn’t help but show extra concern.
