At the second watch of the day, Xiong Daimo tossed and turned in bed, still unable to wait for Zhai Xili to return home. In addition, Youruo came to the door for dinner today, Xiong Daimo could not get rid of his worried heart.

After getting up and dressing, Xiong Daimo decided to wait until dawn before entering the palace. He originally wanted to go to Prince Ying's Mansion, but he didn't want to disturb You Ruo and Prince Ying's rest, so Dai Mo gave up.

Xiong Daimo waited for a long time without seeing dawn, and felt increasingly bad, so she quickly ordered someone to prepare a carriage. At this time on weekdays, the stable of Li Wangfu would give Zhai Xili a carriage ready to enter the palace.

By the time dawn came, Xiong Daimo was already sitting in the carriage, and the carriage was about to arrive at the entrance of the palace.

Everyone entering the palace must be searched, and the carriage leaving the palace was no exception. Xiong Daimo was sitting on the carriage and had to get off.

Seeing that Princess Li was sitting in the carriage of Prince Li's Mansion, the officials who came with them to get on and off the carriage were a little puzzled. During this time period, women should not be allowed to enter the palace, so how could Princess Li appear here? Then?

Where is Prince Li?

After Xiong Daimo got off the carriage, the royal army saw that the person coming off the carriage was Princess Li, and they immediately refused Xiong Daimo to enter the palace, "Princess Li, it is now time for hundreds of officials to come to court. You have not received the emperor's order and are not allowed to enter the palace."

Although Princess Li is also a member of the royal family, except for the time when she goes to court, Princess Li can enter the palace whenever she wants.

Dai Mo was anxious. The harder she couldn't get into the palace, the more afraid she was that something would happen to Li.

"Let her in." At this time, the Queen's voice sounded in the palace. She was not angry but was intimidating. It was the Queen's suppression.

The queen personally came to the palace gate to receive people. If the royal army did not let the princess pass, they would be disrespecting the emperor's order.

When Xiong Daimo saw the queen, she immediately rushed to Lin Yiren and asked: "Mother, are you leaving..."

"Let's talk after we enter the harem." Lin Yiren glanced at the officials waiting at the entrance of the palace. There were some things that were not suitable for officials to know.

After the Queen and Princess Li left, everyone returned to normal order. After being searched by soldiers, they were let in for the morning court session.

Xiong Daimo followed the queen, walking into the harem step by step with anxiety. She thought that even the queen mother had appeared, and she didn't know if something had happened to Li, or if he was really just tired and spent the night in the palace.

When they arrived at the Queen's Yiyuan Hall, the atmosphere in the palace was a bit heavy, which made Xiong Daimo even more worried about not being able to settle down.

Entering the main hall, Xiong Daimo finally couldn't bear it anymore and asked the Queen, "Empress, is something wrong with Li? He didn't return home last night."

"Dai Mo, Li'er was sent to Xicheng by your father. He went there secretly. Don't tell anyone." Lin Yiren took Dai Mo's hand and sat on the soft cushion.

After hearing the Queen's words, Xiong Daimo still couldn't let go and confirmed: "Queen Mother, was Li really sent to Xicheng by Father?"

"Yes, Li'er left in a hurry, so I didn't have time to return home to inform you." Lin Yiren winked at the palace maid next to her and asked her to come forward and pour tea for Dai Mo to warm up.

Dai Mo was dubious. Zhai Xili usually told her what to do when she left home. She didn't know if anything would happen this time.

"Mother, how long will it take for you to come back?"

Lin Yiren shook her head helplessly and smiled, saying: "Those are all political affairs, and my mother doesn't know about them either."

"Well, Li went there secretly, so he can't go home to report the news?" Xiong Daimo was a little disappointed.

"Yes, if you have nothing to do at home, just take Heng'er to Prince Ying's Mansion to sit down and let Ruo Yatou accompany you." Lin Yiren did not say that she would ask Xiong Daimo to enter the palace to accompany her.
