Chapter 2123: The Past Life 48

The Ninth Emperor leaned lazily against the pillar of the pavilion, staring at Dongfang Yu. “Don’t worry. I don’t want to reveal my face, and I don’t want to go out there, but it doesn’t mean that I’m afraid of those people.”

She usually appeared as the Ninth Emperor, wearing a mask, and did not want people to see her face.

However, she would occasionally go down the mountain for food and fun, and if the people found her here, she was only afraid that it would affect her mood.

Therefore, this was why she did not show her face, and that did not mean that she was afraid of those people.

“Oh, that’s good.”

Dongfang Yu breathed a sigh of relief. She hesitated for a moment, wanting to say something, but she still could not say it.

It was not until a few moments later that she asked, “Ninth Emperor, have you got any news about your mother?”

The Ninth Emperor narrowed her eyes and smiled faintly. “Not yet. These few days, you can wander around and try to find out what happened back then.”

She was still young when her mother disappeared back then. Mu Yi and Old Lady Mu both said that she was dead.

However, she knew that her mother was still alive.

She had left this place for more than twenty years without saying anything. Up until now, she still had not found out her whereabouts.

“Yes, Ninth Emperor,” Dongfang Yu replied respectfully, and there was a smile in her eyes.

The Ninth Emperor still trusted them to handle these tasks and did not give them to Nan Changfeng.

Did it prove that in the Ninth Emperor’s mind, they were still more reliable?

And Nan Changfeng was only a servant?

Dongfang Yu smiled happily as she thought about this. She then turned around and walked out of the courtyard.

At that moment, Dongfang Yu did not know that the entire imperial city had been strictly guarded, and many people were looking for her…

***

General Manor…

Since the day he saw Dongfang Yu, he reported to the emperor and even sent most of his men and guards to find her, but it was all in vain.

Suddenly, a guard hurriedly walked in from the door and said respectfully, “General, the girl you asked us to look for… Someone has already found her.”

‘What?’

The cup Sima Yan was holding fell to the floor and shattered.

He stood up joyfully. “Is this true?”

“It is indeed true. Now, she is buying food at Yingfeng Street. I’ve sent someone to follow her.”

“Good!” The smile on Sima Yan’s face grew wider. “Take me to her now!”

A few days ago, he had recognized Dongfang Yu with just a hasty glance from the back.

However, without waiting for him to go up to her, she had already left.

Even with just a glance, he was still able to recognize her.

If it were not for the fact that Dongfang Yu left too quickly back then, she would not have gotten away so quickly.

Sima Yan hurriedly went out. He was so excited at the thought that he would meet Dongfang Yu again.

***

Dongfang Yu stopped in front of a stall. She frowned as she looked at the people standing in front of her.

There were an old woman and a young girl.

Dongfang Yu had met the young girl before; it was Mu Qingya.

The old woman… She pondered for a while and finally remembered her.

‘She must be the old lady of the Mu family…’

Mu Qingya looked at Dongfang Yu and smiled. “Grandmother, this is the girl who was with Little Nine.”
