Chapter 279 Princess Jiahe was captured
"We can't live without His Majesty!"
For a moment, cries were heard one after another in the hall, and everyone's grief surged like a tide.
Faced with the crying and pleading of the crowd, although Master Xiao was also very anxious, he knew that he had to respond calmly at this time.
He took a deep breath, collected himself, and then said to the Empress and the concubines, "Ladies and gentlemen, please be patient. I will do my best to find your majesty's body."
After hearing what Master Xiao said, the Empress and the concubines calmed down a little.
In the midst of chaos, Princess Jiahe seized the opportunity and slipped out of the hall like an agile cat.
She walked lightly, as if afraid of being discovered, and trotted across the corridor to a secluded corner.
Just when she was about to breathe a sigh of relief, suddenly, a dark shadow flashed out from the side like a ghost.
Before Princess Jiahe could react, the black shadow covered her mouth with lightning speed, and then dragged her into a dark corner.
Princess Jiahe's heart instantly rose to her throat. She widened her eyes in horror, trying to see who this person who suddenly appeared was.
However, the moment her eyes met the other person's, she was surprised to find that the person in front of her was actually Dongfang Qingmo!
A feeling of despair suddenly surged in Princess Jiahe's heart. She struggled desperately, trying to break free from Dongfang Qingmo's restraints, while making "mmm" sounds from her mouth, trying to call for help.
Dongfang Qingmo seemed to have anticipated her reaction. She covered Princess Jiahe's mouth tightly so that her voice could not be heard.
At this moment, Dongfang Ti and Huangfu Yi also hurried over.
Their pace seemed a little hurried, as if they were very surprised by what was happening here.
"Mo'er? What's going on?" Dongfang Ti frowned and asked in a low voice as soon as he arrived at the scene.
His gaze fell on Princess Jiahe, who was held tightly by Dongfang Qingmo, and there was a hint of doubt and worry in his eyes.
Seeing this, Dongfang Qingmo quickly explained, "She wants to escape."
At this time, Princess Jiahe was still struggling desperately.
Her body kept twisting, trying to break free from Dongfang Qingmo's restraints.
However, Dongfang Qingmo was obviously much stronger than her, and no matter how hard she tried, she could not escape her control.
"Be quiet! Don't move!" Dongfang Qingmo couldn't help but shout coldly when he saw this.
Dongfang Ti's expression grew increasingly serious. He stared at Princess Jiahe and sternly said, "Princess Jiahe, now that His Majesty is missing and the situation is chaotic, you'd better be sensible."
Princess Jiahe, with her mouth covered, could only make "Mmmm..." sounds, as if she wanted to explain something but couldn't express herself clearly.
Huangfu Yi saw this and also stepped forward. His eyes also fell on Princess Jiahe and he said sternly, "Where did you hide His Majesty?"
Faced with Huangfu Yi's questioning, Princess Jiahe's eyes showed a sad look.
She shook her head desperately, as if trying to deny that she had anything to do with His Majesty's disappearance.
However, because her mouth was covered, she couldn't utter a word.
Dongfang Ti said hurriedly, "I'll go get Master Xiao right away. Please wait a moment."
After saying that, he turned around and walked away quickly, his figure quickly disappearing from sight.
