Baili Ye didn't want to take her to see his mother, but to hand her over to Kui Shili.

Baili Yue had a pure heart and always trusted her brother's words completely without any doubt. At this moment, she did not notice Baili Ye's sad expression, and was filled with joy that she could finally be reunited with her family.

"Brother, when are we leaving the palace?"

How easy is it to get out of this heavily guarded palace? Looking at his sister's defenseless smile, Baili Ye felt a sharp pain in his heart.

"Yue'er."

He hesitated, not wanting to drag this innocent girl into the vortex of power. If she fell into Kui Shili's hands, the consequences would be disastrous.

Baili Yue raised her head with doubt in her eyes: "Brother, what's wrong with you?"

"Yue'er, I..." The words came to his lips, but he couldn't say them. In order to borrow the power of Kaifeng, Yue'er had to be handed over.

Baili Ye clenched his fists, his fingers trembling slightly.

Baili Yue didn't understand her brother's thoughts. She only saw his worry and frowned slightly: "Brother, if leaving the palace is troublesome or dangerous, then forget it. I don't want you to take risks."

"I'm fine in the palace, but..."

At this point, her nose felt sore and tears quietly fell. The next moment, she was tightly embraced by Baili Ye.

Baili Ye promised softly: "I will take you out."

The tears that had been suppressed for so long burst out, and Baili Yue clutched her brother's sleeve tightly, sobbing softly.

"Someone will escort you away tomorrow. You must follow their arrangements and be careful not to be discovered." Baili Ye's voice was low and trembling.

He knew that he was pushing his sister into an unknown danger. Guilt, fear, and dark emotions intertwined, making him hold her tighter, as if this would keep her.

"I'm sorry, Yue'er!"

As long as they can get through this period, after they gain control of the world, they can take her and her mother back and live together forever. Baili Ye lowered his eyes to hide the pain in his heart.

Baili Yue didn't know her brother's plan, so she nodded and agreed: "I understand."

She suggested: "Brother, let's leave the capital and find a place where no one knows us and start over."

"Okay." Baili Ye said in a muffled voice and hugged her tighter.

Baili Yue smiled: "That's great."

Leaning on her brother's shoulder, feeling the familiar warmth, she felt extremely at ease.

The next morning, the sky was just getting light.

Baili Yue looked exhausted, and her eyes revealed anxiety. She knew that today was the day her brother would send someone to pick her up from the palace, and she was both excited and nervous, and she barely slept the entire night.

As the sky gradually brightened, Baili Yue began to pace in the room, thinking: How can I leave the palace smoothly this time? What if I am discovered?

"Princess." A gentle voice called her back from her thoughts. It turned out to be her personal maid who came in to help her with her morning affairs.

"Ah!" Baili Yue was startled by the sudden voice, but quickly recognized the other party.

"No, I didn't sleep well last night, you can leave first."

The maid looked at Baili Yue with some concern, but seeing that she insisted, she quietly left.

As time passed, Baili Yue became more and more anxious. Who would her brother send? When would they arrive?

It was not until noon that a strange face appeared at the door. It was a palace maid she had never seen before, who walked into the room with her head lowered.

"My lord asked me to take the princess away." The maid said in a low voice, so that only the two of them could hear it.

Baili Yue's heart suddenly tightened: "It's really coming."

She asked, "How do we get out?" Her heartbeat quickened and her voice trembled a little.

The maid handed her a set of clothes that ordinary maids wore and a waist badge: "Princess, please change into this set of clothes, and leave everything to me."

Without any hesitation, Baili Yue took the clothes: "Okay."

After changing her clothes, she looked like an ordinary palace maid. The maid checked her dress, nodded with satisfaction, and then took out a small porcelain bottle from her sleeve.

"I will use this powder to give the princess a temporary rash on her face so no one will recognize you."

"This won't hurt my face, right?" Baili Yue asked with a frown.

"Don't worry, it will automatically disappear after half an hour. This is only a temporary solution." The maid comforted.

Taking a deep breath, Baili Yue nodded: "Then let's do it."

Thus, under the effect of the powder, Baili Yue's face temporarily changed its appearance, ready for the upcoming adventure.

As long as he could leave the palace, Baili Yue felt it was worth it even if he got a temporary rash on his face.

"Princess, I'm sorry."

The palace maid opened the vial and applied the powder inside on Baili Yue's face.

She immediately felt a hot itch and couldn't help wanting to touch it, but the maid stopped her in time: "Princess, don't move. Please be patient."

Baili Yue nodded, trying to restrain herself from touching her face. The two quietly left the palace, with the palace maid leading the way, and everything went smoothly.

Baili Yue's heart was filled with tension, and she held the handkerchief tightly in her hand.

When they came to the housekeeper, the maid showed her badge and explained, "Her Royal Highness the Princess ordered me to go out and buy something."

The nanny took the badge and checked it. Just as she was about to let her go, she noticed Baili Yue who was wearing a veil.

"Stop," Mammy ordered. "Why is she wearing a veil?"

Baili Yue froze in an instant, cold sweat seeping down her back. If she was discovered, the consequences would be disastrous. Her hands began to tremble unconsciously.

The maid calmly said, "There is something wrong with her face, so this is a good opportunity to see a doctor."

Mammy stared at Baili Yue and said coldly, "Take off your veil."

The maid turned to Baili Yue and said, "Xiaoyue, take off your veil and show it to Mammy."

Baili Yue slowly took off her veil with shaking hands. What appeared in front of the nanny was a face full of red and swollen pimples, which was completely different from her usual fair and delicate face.

Mammy stepped back in horror: "Is this not contagious?"

"Don't worry, Ma'am. It's not contagious." The maid said quickly.

"Let's go!" The nanny frowned, quickly threw the badge back to the palace maid, and waved her hand to signal them to leave.

The maid responded and quickly left the palace with Baili Yue. Baili Yue breathed a sigh of relief. The scene just now almost made her heart stop beating, but fortunately there was no danger.

"Is my face really that scary?" she asked curiously.

"Don't worry, Princess, it will be back to normal in half an hour." The maid comforted.

Baili Yue felt relieved. As long as she could get out of the palace, everything would be fine. The following process went smoothly.

Finally, when they successfully left the palace, Baili Yue's eyes sparkled and she asked with a smile: "Where is my brother? When will he come to pick me up?"

At this moment, the joy of freedom filled her heart.

The maid said softly, "Princess, please get in the carriage. You will see the master soon."

"Okay." Baili Yue got on the prepared carriage without thinking too much.

As the carriage swayed forward, her heart was filled with longing for her brother.
