Chapter 302 The Queen is so beautiful 31
"Then do you know where his adoptive mother lives?"
Hua Fangfei frowned slightly, and her slender fingers tapped the table rhythmically, making a crisp and slightly anxious sound.
Qiuxiang raised the corners of her mouth slightly, revealing a confident smile: "Your Majesty, this servant has already found out."
She paused for a moment, then continued, "I heard that the foster mother lives far away from the prosperous capital, in a remote suburb. As for the exact location, I know it roughly."
When Hua Fangfei heard this, a hint of joy flashed in her eyes. She then stood up decisively and said in a loud voice: "In that case, I will go outside the palace myself! You two should come with me." After that, she turned her gaze to the other two maids beside her.
The two of them looked at each other and answered in unison, "Yes." They knew that their queen's decision was difficult to change, so they had no choice but to obey.
After making some preparations, everyone set out on their journey out of the palace.
Along the way, Hua Fangfei pondered the various situations she might encounter on this journey. In this rural area, it was almost impossible to live a life as prosperous and bustling as in the capital.
Moreover, if they showed their wealth to the public, it would probably attract the attention of bandits and robbers. And as women, if they really encountered danger, their final fate would surely be extremely miserable.
With this in mind, Hua Fangfei deliberately chose a simple and elegant outfit, even the makeup she usually applied was only lightly applied. Not only that, she also put on a long white hat, covering her face tightly to avoid attracting attention.
The carriage he rode this time was not as gorgeous and complicated as those in the palace. Instead, it was very simple, highlighting a clean and elegant look.
The carriage slowly drove out of the bustling and noisy capital city, and the scenery outside the window gradually changed.
The originally magnificent buildings with carved beams and painted rafters gradually disappeared, replaced by plain farmlands and scattered rural houses.
It seemed as if they had entered a mountainous area. Apart from the broad and flat palace road they were walking on, the roads on both sides were lined with undulating and rugged mountains.
Somehow, an inexplicable feeling of unease surged into Hua Fangfei's heart.
She always felt that there seemed to be some danger lurking in this place.
However, considering that this is the palace road after all, and there are soldiers patrolling and guarding it on weekdays, it shouldn't be so unlucky to encounter an accident, right?
Just as she was thinking about it, the next moment, her ominous premonition actually turned into a cruel reality!
Suddenly, a rough male voice roared, followed by a cloud of dust rising up, covering the sky and the sun.
The three people sitting in the carriage were stunned by this sudden change and for a moment they couldn't see what was happening outside.
All I could hear was a terrified scream from the groom in front, and then he was silent in an instant.
Faced with such a dangerous situation, Hua Fangfei remained surprisingly calm. She sat steadily in the carriage, her face as calm as water, without a trace of panic.
Although Leng Xiang and Qiu Xiang were a little nervous, fortunately they both knew some martial arts skills. They made a quick decision and prepared to rush out of the carriage to start a fierce battle with the uninvited guests outside. They were determined to protect Hua Fangfei's safety even if it meant trying their best.
Hua Fangfei's eyes, which were originally closed, suddenly opened wide, like lightning across the sky in the dark night.
She swiftly grabbed the hands of the two men who were about to get out of the car, with such force that it seemed as if she was digging into their flesh. Her head, which had been hidden under the long hat, shook violently from side to side like a branch blown by the wind.
"No! Absolutely not!" Although Hua Fangfei's voice was not loud, it was filled with an unquestionable determination.
Leng Xiang and Qiu Xiang exchanged a glance, both with solemn expressions on their faces. They bit their lips tightly, their brows furrowed, and their eyes revealed deep anxiety and worry.
"Miss! If the two of us don't go out to stop the thief now, I'm afraid he will rush in aggressively in the next second. By then, the situation will be out of control and everything will be beyond redemption!" Leng Xiang said anxiously, her words full of worry about the current situation.
Qiuxiang immediately echoed, "Yes, Miss! Now that we are in such danger, we two sisters have nothing to ask for but our only wish for you to live safely. Even though we know that if we go to stop the thief, the consequences may be life-threatening or even impossible to return, we are willing to do it and have no regrets!"
After saying that, Qiuxiang's eyes turned slightly red and tears welled up in them, but she forced herself not to let them fall.
Under this situation, their way of addressing Hua Fangfei changed from "Empress" to "Miss".
