Chapter 5065: 5.0817 Entering the Inner Chambers

No wonder her heart had been pounding earlier, always feeling as if something was about to happen. It turned out... it was because the people from the Duo Luo Kingdom had already reached her home first?

Although the Qiao Residence had no visible guards, there were hidden guards secretly stationed there, so this point was quite strange.

How did that fake enter the house without alerting the hidden guards and deceive her mother?

Although her mother's cultivation wasn't high, she had spent so many years with her own daughter that she knew her inside and out. Qiao Mu believed her mother would definitely not mistake her.

So, this matter was, in all likelihood...

Even the hidden guards stationed at the Qiao Residence were probably already ambushed.

The hidden guard saw an extremely bloodthirsty, cold smile on the little Crown Princess's face.

Like a devil returned from hell, those transformed small eyes emitted a sinister glow, exuding endless ghostly aura.

He immediately shivered, not daring to say anything more. He turned around and led the way, swiftly guiding the Crown Princess to Her Imperial Highness the Empress's central palace hall.

The people of the Duo Luo Kingdom, having courted death by targeting the Crown Princess this time, would surely suffer terribly afterward. This was basically beyond doubt.

The two figures moved as fast as lightning, quickly disappearing into the deep night.

...

Meanwhile.

Bai Wuxia noticed that her son's complexion was very poor. His pair of cold, sharp phoenix eyes occasionally swept across the crowd, revealing an extremely chilling and murderous intent.

Ever since his in-law, Madam Wei, brought her daughter into the palace to meet him, the Crown Prince's expression immediately changed.

Bai Wuxia felt that things were developing in a strange direction.

The news of the Crown Prince's return to the capital was immediately conveyed to her by His Majesty.

The message she received at the time was that the Crown Prince and his entourage had returned to the capital, but the Crown Princess was not seen accompanying them.

Now, the Crown Princess had merely returned to her maiden home and entered the palace with her mother, but her son's expression was... so strange.

Empress Bai quietly glared at her son, then smiled at Wei Ziqin, "My dear in-law..."

Crown Prince Mo suddenly stood up and bowed to his mother, "Mother, your son will go pick up his wife."

Empress Bai looked bewildered. She subconsciously turned to glance at the smiling Wei Ziqin, her gaze falling on the young girl beside her.

Who was the Empress? If she still couldn't detect something amiss at this point, then she was truly foolish.

She looked suspiciously at the Wei mother and daughter, her gaze lingering on Wei Ziqin's side.

Her son showed no polite expression towards the two in front of him, and even said he was going out to pick up his wife?

What does "pick up his wife" mean?

Does it mean this young girl who looks like Qiao Qiao is not his wife?!

Bai Wuxia felt increasingly disgusted the more she looked at the Wei mother and daughter.

She was somewhat at a loss now, constantly looking towards the door, just wanting her son to come in and explain things to her.

At first glance, this stoic face seemed to have no problem.

But for some reason, the more she looked at it now, the more disgusted she felt. The eyebrows and eyes were indeed very similar, but sitting there, the aura felt completely different.

"Empress, what's wrong?" Wei Ziqin looked at her with a puzzled expression and asked, "Why did His Royal Highness the Crown Prince suddenly get angry?"

Today, the Empress had summoned many noblewomen here. At this moment, everyone was looking at the Wei mother and daughter with curious eyes, and more or less, they all felt a bit curious.

Everyone present, more or less, knew about the Crown Princess's troublesome nature.
