OMG! Tyrant's Pampered Baby Is a Valued Princess

Chapter 1226: The Emperor Wants to Take Bai Zhi’er Away

After Bai Zhi’er accompanied Yuan Ruxin and Xixi back to the Yuan Residence, everyone suddenly noticed an old eunuch standing outside, accompanied by a group of guards with silver armor and waist knives.Yuan Ruxin lifted the curtain and frowned: "Imperial Guard!"

Bai Zhi’er blinked, aware that the Emperor of Yan Country had a trusted group, each highly skilled in martial arts, even stronger than the Imperial Guard.

Collectively known as the Imperial Guard.

Yuan Ruxin was somewhat flustered: "It’s over, their appearance is definitely not for anything good. Is it something with my father or brother?"

Bai Zhi’er, on the other hand, was very calm: "What’s to fear? Just go down and ask. Coming this late at night, they couldn’t be here specifically to take your life."

Yuan Ruxin slightly adjusted her clothes and followed Bai Zhi’er, holding Xixi’s hand as they got off the carriage.

Xixi was afraid of the imposing presence of these Imperial Guards and clung tightly to Yuan Ruxin, quite scared.

The old eunuch led with a smile that didn’t reach his eyes, his gaze first slithering over Bai Zhi’er like a snake before finally settling on Yuan Ruxin.

"Commandery Princess, you’re finally back. Going out so late at night, how come you brought so few house servants? What if something happens? The Prince would be worried!"

Yuan Ruxin furrowed her brows: "Stop cursing me, Commandery Princess. If you can’t speak properly, then don’t speak!"

"If there’s something, report it quickly. If not, do not disturb our rest!"

She was always blunt, especially to those with ill intentions, never showing a good temper.

The smile on the old eunuch’s face couldn’t be maintained.

He looked at Yuan Ruxin with a sinister gaze.

"Since the Commandery Princess is tired, of course, I won’t bother you much. However, the Emperor heard that the Commandery Princess took a stranger to dig up her ancestral grave!"

"The Emperor feels this is somewhat inappropriate, especially with the Prince and Princely Heir both busy, fearing the Commandery Princess might be deceived by villains."

"Thus, he specifically sent me to Escort this lady into the palace to await the Emperor’s review!"

Yuan Ruxin widened her eyes: "What?! Absolutely not!"

She stood protectively in front of Bai Zhi’er: "She’s my friend, not any villain. What right does the Emperor have to summon her to the palace?"

"Besides, my brother knows her too, she’s..."

Before Yuan Ruxin could finish, Bai Zhi’er tugged at her sleeve from behind.

This foolish girl!

If the Emperor of Yan Country knew she was the Princess of Great Chu, it would be even easier to accuse the Yuan Family of treason.

Although the Regent King indeed sent letters seeking help everywhere, Bai Xilie never agreed.

However, this wouldn’t stop the Emperor of Yan from making trouble!

Yuan Ruxin’s words abruptly ceased.

She paused and sternly declared: "In any case, my friend cannot be taken away!"

The old eunuch chuckled: "Commandery Princess, how should I explain this to the Emperor? You must know if the Emperor misunderstands and gets angry, then..."

Before he finished speaking, Bai Zhi’er already stepped forward: "I will go with you to the palace."

Yuan Ruxin was surprised: "So..."

Bai Zhi’er shook her head: "Never mind, I’ll go. I’ve nothing to hide, why would I fear the Emperor’s questioning?"

The old eunuch smiled slyly: "Indeed, not everyone gets to see Heavenly Beauty, Commandery Princess. You should be happy for your friend."

Yuan Ruxin glared at him angrily: "Dog servant, stop your nonsense! Listen, if my friend gets even a scratch, I will definitely make trouble for you!"

Subsequently, Bai Zhi’er gave her a reassuring look.

She turned and followed the old eunuch onto the imperial palace carriage.
