In a magnificent palace in Yueyin Country, a woman sat on a high throne. Her beautiful face was like a blooming rose, delicate and incomparable, but a little fierce because of anger. The woman's eyebrows were tightly knitted, and her eyes were burning with rage. The woman's eyes were as sharp as a sword, as if they could pierce the hearts of the princes and the others. The woman's bright red lips were tightly pursed into a straight line, revealing the woman's extreme dissatisfaction and anger.
The woman was wearing a gorgeous brocade gown that wrapped around her graceful figure, and the patterns embroidered with gold thread shone brightly in the sun. The pearls and jade on her head made crisp sounds as her body trembled slightly, adding a bit of majesty.
The woman stared at His Highness's men with sharp eyes.
"My daughter has been missing for many days. You good-for-nothings, why haven't you found her whereabouts yet?" The woman shouted angrily, her voice full of majesty and urgency.
The woman clenched her hands tightly, her knuckles turning white. "I entrusted this matter to you, but you are so incompetent. If anything happens to my daughter, none of you will have a good life."
"Who on earth is so bold as to kidnap my daughter?"
Everyone in the palace knelt on the ground, sweat dripping from their foreheads. But no one dared to speak out to defend themselves. The whole hall was filled with a tense and oppressive atmosphere.
"You bunch of trash, get out of here!" the woman roared angrily.
When everyone saw the woman getting angry, they quickly retreated and left the hall. After everyone left, a mysterious man wearing a mask quietly appeared beside the woman.
He bowed his head respectfully and reported: "Your Majesty, up to now, there is still no news of finding the princess."
A bitter smile appeared on the woman's face, and her voice was cold but firm: "I have been proficient in divination since I was a child, and I can see through people's destiny. Many people came from afar and spent a lot of money just to let me calculate their destiny, help them solve difficult problems, and seek guidance. However, fate seems to have played a cruel joke on me. My beloved daughter disappeared without any warning!"
The woman was extremely worried. She tried her best to find out where her daughter was. However, no matter how hard she tried, she could not find out where her daughter was. She only knew that her daughter was still in Yueyin Country, but she had searched every corner of Yueyin Country, but still could not find any trace of her daughter.
For the first time, this woman who had stood proud in the world for her wisdom and courage felt that her divination skills were so pale and powerless that she could not even help her beloved daughter overcome her difficulties. This feeling of powerlessness was like a sharp arrow piercing her heart, making her feel deeply insignificant and fragile.
She was filled with deep worry and fear, fearing that something might happen to her daughter. This worry was like a heavy shackle that bound her already fragile heart, making her struggle in despair. Even if the road ahead was full of thorns, she would still muster up all her courage and exert all her strength to continue looking for the missing figure until the moment of reunion between mother and daughter came.
"Ye Feng, have you found out whether there were any suspicious figures in the palace on the day the princess disappeared?" The woman stared at the masked man in front of her, anxiety and expectation flashing in her eyes.
The masked man bowed slightly and replied in a calm tone, "Your Majesty, I have carefully questioned everyone who had contact with the princess that day, but did not find anything suspicious about them."
"There was no suspicious person in the palace on the day the princess disappeared. Your Majesty, I have a bold guess."
"What guesses? Ye Feng, why don't you just speak frankly?"
"Princess, it is possible that she escaped from the palace on her own."
The woman in front of her fell into deep thought. She had been strict with her daughter since she was a child, just to pass on her divination skills to her daughter. However, her daughter was not interested in divination skills. She always wondered what was happening outside the palace. What Ye Feng said made sense, but the palace was guarding against Senyuan. It was a rare thing to escape from the palace. It was impossible for the princess to accomplish it alone. Could someone be helping her in secret? The woman thought about it for a long time, but she couldn't figure it out. If her daughter wanted to go out, she could tell her. She could go outside with her. Now her daughter was missing, and she lived in torment every day.
