The ugly queen wants to divorce her husband

"Okay, go to sleep!"

Xia Houyu gently put Ye Yongan's head on his shoulder.

Ye Yongan lay obediently on Xia Houyu's shoulder and soon fell into a deep sleep.

Looking at Ye Yongan's sleeping face, Xia Houyu sighed and fell into deep thought.

At dawn the next day, Ye Yongan heard a movement outside the room. She got out of bed quietly, put on some clothes and opened the door. She saw that the mute mother-in-law had come to bring them food.

Ye Yongan did not wake up Xia Houyu, dressed alone, washed and had breakfast, then went to the hot spring.

Even though her skin was wrinkled by the soaking and she didn't wait until Xia Houyu came to find her, Ye Yongan felt extremely disappointed. I wondered if Xia Houyu was angry with him because of what happened yesterday.

Ye Yongan, who was in a depressed mood, went ashore and returned to the wooden house only to find that there was no one in the house. Xia Houyu didn't know where he went, and Ye Yongan waited until noon. In fact, she had thought about looking for Xia Houyu. She was always a little scared when Xia Houyu was not around. But when she thought of Xia Houyu's attitude towards her yesterday, Ye Yongan didn't dare to go to Xia Houyu. She knew very well that if Xia Houyu wasn't here, he must be with the high priest, otherwise where else could he go.

When he thought that Xia Houyu was with the high priest, Ye Yongan couldn't help but have random thoughts. Just because Xia Houyu has no interest in the high priest does not mean that the high priest will let Xia Houyu go.

It was lunch time, and the mute mother-in-law came to deliver food to Ye Yongan. Seeing that the food on the table was clearly enough for one person, Ye Yongan asked his mute mother-in-law: "Mother-in-law, won't His Highness come back here for dinner?"

The mute mother-in-law gestured at Ye Yongan for a while, and Ye Yongan guessed that the high priest had brought Xia Houyu out of the valley.

Ye Yongan felt abandoned. She didn't eat much lunch before she went back to her room and lay down on the bed. She had nothing to do but lie down and waste time waiting for Xia Houyu to come back.

Ye Yongan fell asleep while lying down. She was woken up by the mute mother-in-law who wanted to slap her. She looked at the sky outside and it was already evening. The mute mother-in-law was here to bring her breakfast.

There was still no Xia Houyu in the house. After asking the mute grandma, I found out that not only Xia Houyu had not returned to the valley, but the high priest had not returned either.

Ye Yongan didn't dare to be alone, and insisted on following the mute mother-in-law like a little tail. Even when it was time to soak in the hot springs at night, I had to have my mute grandma accompany me.

In fact, Ye Yongan is not that timid, but now that Xia Houyu and the high priest have left the valley alone, she feels insecure in such a large place alone. Now there is only the mute grandma in this valley. Although she is familiar with the mute grandma, having someone by her side makes her feel more at ease.

After soaking in the hot spring and returning to the cabin, Xia Houyu was still nowhere to be seen. She was a little timid at the thought of sleeping by herself later. She wanted to keep the mute mother-in-law, but when she came out after changing clothes in the room, the mute mother-in-law had disappeared.

It was pitch dark outside the house, and she did not dare to go out to find the mute mother-in-law. After closing the doors and windows, Ye Yongan huddled on the bed covered with quilts. She didn't dare to turn off the lights, so she kept the oil lamp burning.

Ye Yongan stayed up all night, keeping his eyes open until dawn. There was a knock on the door, and she rushed out to open the door.

Outside the door are the high priest and the mute old woman. Seeing that the high priest was back, Ye Yongan asked excitedly: "Where is Xia Houyu? Where are the others?"

The high priest led the mute old woman into the house leisurely and sat down in front of the table. The mute old woman put the food on the table from the food basket.

Seeing that the high priest ignored him, Ye Yongan was a little angry and asked the high priest again.

"Let me ask you where is Xia Houyu?"

"Out of the valley."

"What did he do? When will he come back?"

"Yesterday Qianxue sent a message saying that there is news about the master of Lihuo Pavilion. I asked Qianxue to take the prince down the mountain to find the master of Lihuo Pavilion."

"Then I want to go too. Please take me down the mountain to find them."

When Ye Yongan heard that he had been left behind by Xia Houyu, he hurriedly asked the high priest to take him down the mountain.

The high priest opened Ye Yongan's hand.

"You can't go anywhere, just stay in the valley and heal your scars."

"I am dead. I want to go down the mountain to find Xia Houyu."

"You can't help it. The prince has entrusted you to me, and I have promised him that he will cure you. You must stay here until you are cured. You cannot go anywhere, but you can't go even if you want to. This is the maze of peach blossom forest. You have tried, but you cannot get out without me taking you."

Ye Yongan was extremely frustrated. Not only was he abandoned by Xia Houyu, he was also locked in this valley and could not get out.
