I was kicked out of the house and became a princess.

“Suspicion 1: Every household in the city raises snakes to get their eggs every year.

Doubt 2: All snake eggs will be sent to the Zhou family.

Doubt 3: There are no beggars in the entire city. Every family in financial difficulty has received assistance from the Zhou family, and the Zhou family has been very generous in their support.

Doubt 4: Every fifty years, each household would send a girl to the Zhou family in the name of not observing the Three Obediences and Four Virtues.

Doubt 5: Every girl who was sent to the Zhou family would obey the snake witch in everything after leaving the Zhou family, and some even worshipped her as a god.

Doubt 6: No information about the snake lady can be found, and few people in the Zhou family know her.

Your Highness, this is all the information we have found about the Snake Lady and the Zhou Family these days."

Yingying nodded after listening, but the gloominess on her pretty face became more and more serious.

"You have done a good job. Keep watching the Zhou family. Anyone from the Zhou family who enters or leaves Jade City must report to me immediately."

"As ordered!"

Putting down the sound transmission stone in her hand, Yingying took a deep breath, suppressed the fear in her heart, and tried her best to calm herself down.

"Xiaoxi, what do you think?"

Yingying looked at the geographical location of Yucheng in the sand table and asked in a low voice to Xin Yixi who was silent beside her.

"Sister Ying, I'm not sure about Yucheng's current situation, and this is the first time I've heard of such a situation."

Xin Yixi shook her head with some embarrassment.

Yingying pretended not to hear anything and continued to stare at the sand table, but her mind was searching for something. In the current situation in Yucheng, she seemed to have seen a similar example somewhere.

Where is it?

I always feel like I've forgotten something, what is it?

Oh, right, the City Lord’s Mansion!

Why didn’t the city lord report this situation to his superiors?

Over the years, has every city lord been in cahoots with the Zhou family?

But what good will this do him?

All the problems came to her mind at this moment, making Yingying a little upset.

"Somebody come!"

"Your Highness!"

The Black Falcon Guard at the door walked in and bowed.

"Go call Wutong."

"Yes!"

Not long after, Wutong arrived under the guidance of the Black Falcon Guards.

"Go down."

"Yes."

The Black Falcon Guard went out and continued to guard the door.

"Wu Tong greets His Highness, Miss Xin."

"Brother Seven."

"Senior Wutong."

After the greetings, Yingying told him all the news and doubts that Zhao Wanqing and others had found out in Yucheng, while Xin Yixi stood quietly by.

After hearing this, Wutong did not directly express his opinion, but remained silent as usual.

"Seventh brother?"

Yingying called softly.

"Your Highness, in my opinion, you can go or not."

Wutong's words confused both Xin Yixi and Yingying.

"What if I can go? What if I can't go?"

Xin Yixi asked doubtfully.

"First of all, I have never heard of the situation in Yucheng. In addition, Your Highness did not mention the City Lord's Mansion just now. It can be seen that the City Lord has either been in collusion with the Zhou family or is unaware of it. No matter which possibility it is, Your Highness should go and investigate it in person. However, if that snake woman destroys the spirit general, she will be at least a demigod, which is enough to crush everyone. Your Highness's precious body must not be lost. This is why I think you can't go."

Wutong was silent for a long time before slowly expressing his opinion.

"Sister Ying, I think..."

"Seventh Brother, do you think that I am more noble than you, so only you can go to the battlefield to kill the enemy, and I should stay behind?"

Xin Yixi was about to persuade Yingying not to rush into this matter when she was interrupted by Yingying with a gloomy face.

"Your Highness is the crown prince of the empire, the heir to the gods. You must not make any mistakes."

Wutong still insisted on his own opinion.

"Seventh Brother, you are right and wrong."

Yingying took a deep breath and suppressed the anger in her heart.

"I am the heir of God and the crown prince of the empire, that's true. But don't forget, it is precisely because of these identities that it is my responsibility to fight on the battlefield and protect the empire.

Spread the word, I will lead a team to meet the snake lady at midnight tomorrow."

"I beg Your Highness to take back your order."

Wutong stood where he was, bowed and spoke loudly to Yingying.

"Go ahead. I've made up my mind."

Yingying said this and walked past him and out.

"You, hey, senior, please go back first."

Xin Yixi didn't know what to say, so she had to leave in a hurry and chase in the direction Yingying left.

The top of Pingle Mountain.

The beautiful figure stood alone, gently wrapped by the sunset, coated with a layer of faint golden glow. The wind blew gently, causing her clothes to flutter. Perhaps out of loneliness or expectation, she let the sunset stretch her figure longer and farther.

"Sister Ying..."

With loneliness, guilt, gratitude and longing, her heart seemed to contain all the people she cared about, except herself.

"Xiao Xi, are you here to persuade me too?"

There was a hint of grievance in Yingying's voice.

"Since I came to the Dimensional Temple, I have no friends. Only my mother has been with me. Grandpa Hati taught me to read, and Sister Yunan taught me etiquette. In the eyes of outsiders, I am talented and have the potential to be the crown prince. Only I know this. I just don't want to disappoint my mother. Sister Yunan once taught me that my mother doesn't show up often now, so my every move outside can represent my mother's image in the eyes of the world. That year, I was ten years old.

I am very grateful to my mother for bringing me back. Although she used the dimensional spirit to subtly change my thoughts and arrange the trajectory of my life, I never blamed her. In my heart, she is my mother and she will not harm me. What I have to do is to share her worries and not embarrass her.

You know, I must go. If the Queen Mother helps us, it will definitely alert the enemy, which will make it difficult to target them in the future. So, I am the best choice. What the Seventh Brother said is right, but I am the Queen Mother's daughter and the crown prince of the empire. This is my responsibility. "

Yingying turned around, her pretty face already covered with tears.

“Sister Ying, no matter what you do, whether it’s right or wrong in their eyes, I will always be with you.”

Xin Yixi walked over and gently hugged Yingying's slightly trembling body, comforting her softly.

Yingmeng and Xinling heard their heart-to-heart talk clearly through the purple phoenix hairpin on Yingying's head.

"I have to say, Yingmeng, you really have a good daughter. She is so sensible that it makes people feel distressed."

Xin Ling looked at the girl hugging Ling Yi in the mirror and spoke to Ying Meng seriously.

Yingmeng did not respond, but she felt guilty towards Yingying. After all, she was too impatient towards her daughter.
