“What?” Chu Ning was shocked. “Fourth Princess has bodyguards, so how can something like this happen?”

Ji Qingfeng shook his head. “All of this is not clear. It’s just that the river current beneath the cliff is fast flowing, and it’s been an hour since she disappeared. She has not been found yet! His Majesty is very upset. He has sent the imperial guards to go search for Fourth Princess. I’m here to ask you to join…”

Chu Ning nodded quickly. “Let’s go!” He was the Commander in Chief. He had to be there during times like this. He had just taken a step when he suddenly remembered Chu Liuyue. He turned to look at his daughter guiltily. “Yue’er…”

“Fourth Princess’s matters are more important. You should hurry and leave, Father.”

“But…” Chu Ning was a little hesitant.

“I’ll look after things here. Lord Chu Ning need not worry. Father has always doted on Fourth Princess, so please put your best foot forward for the matter.” Rong Xiu’s words put Chu Ning’s mind at ease.

“If that’s the case, thank you for the trouble, Prince Li.” With that, Chu Ning and Ji Qingfeng quickly left together.

The rather lively room only had Rong Xiu and Chu Liuyue left.

Rong Xiu rubbed his cup, with worry between his brows.

“I heard that the hunting ground’s terrain is rather dangerous. This time… Fourth Princess is in danger.” Chu Liuyue looked at him. “Your Highness, Fourth Princess is in an accident. Are you not going to take a look?”

Rong Xiu drank the cup of alcohol slowly, and the fragrance of alcohol spread across the room. “Father has already sent the imperial guards to search for her. My presence would only create problems, so I might as well wait here,” he said plainly.

Chu Liuyue raised her brows. “Here?”

Rong Xiu tapped on the sides of the cup as he looked at Chu Liuyue. “I seem to have left something at your place. I’ll pick it up when all this is over.”

Chu Liuyue instinctively wanted to reject it. “There’s no need for so much trouble. Why don’t I go back and get it for you now?”

Rong Xiu paused and looked at her with a wry smile. “You want everyone here to know that my clothes are at your place?”

try { window._mNHandle.queue.push(function () { window._mNDetails.loadTag("386623558", "300x250", "386623558"); }); } catch (error) { }

Chu Liuyue: “… But it’s even more inappropriate for Your Highness to go to my place, right?”

A lot of people connected the dots, and some even got up and left.

Chu Liuyue knew what they were thinking. They were just fence-sitters. She was not bothered and sent them off.

When she passed by the room that Si Yang and the others were in, she saw that they were all standing at the door.

“You all are leaving too?” Chu Liuyue asked.

“Forget about that. How can you still have the time to think about this now?” Si Yang hurried forward. “Do you know that the hunting ground where the accident occurred is…”

“I know.”

“Why are you still so calm then? Aren’t you afraid that His Majesty will blame you for this?”

Si Yang was not the only one who was worried. The others were rather worried as well, believing that the matter was rather troublesome.
