<h4>CHAPTER 278 (2): ALARMING NEWS</h4>


    Trantion: Cosy


    The hatred in Lu Xiangning''s eyes dissipated upon hearing Pei Yaran''s words. "Themoners are naturally more important, but will you head to the Pei Yong Residence?"


    "Of course, I will. However, I will be dealing with this issue in a fair and just manner. If I do anything else, Prince Hao will just see me as an errant person, and he’ll grow to hate me more." Though Pei Yaran wore a smile on her face, her mind was filled with only Pei Qianhao.


    But as soon as she thought of Pei Qianhao, she was reminded of the bitch who was by his side at this very moment! If she dares to follow him back to Beimin, I must find a way to kill her!


    "Mother, wait here. I will change my clothes and leave the pce with you." Pei Yaran patted Lu Xiangning’s hand as she stood; as soon as she did so, however, a pce maid’s frantic voice sounded from outside the hall doors.


    "Empress Dowager, Commander Wu''s subordinates brought Prince Hao''s orders with them, and they want to dismiss all 72 beauties in the Beauty Pce!"


    Pei Yaran and Lu Xiangning froze, only reacting a momentter. Happiness was written across Lu Xiangning''s face. "Daughter, it''s a good thing that all the beauties are dismissed."


    However, Pei Yaran didn''t concur. Why did he suddenly dissolve the Beauty Pce when everything is perfectly fine. Who is he doing this for, the woman beside him now? Where will the 72 women go after they are dismissed?


    "Mother, I must make a trip to the Beauty Pce." Pei Yaran swiftly changed her ns, exiting the hall instead of going to get a change of clothes.


    Lu Xiangning instantly followed to stop her. "No. Dissolving the Beauty Pce is Prince Hao''s personal affair, how can you go?''


    "It''s not a personal affair. Some women in the pce are the daughters of important court ministers. Wouldn’t such arge number of women being dismissed with nowhere to go cause a ruckus?" Pei Yaran had a n in her mind; she wanted to use this opportunity to look for Su Xi-er.


    Every single time I tried to bring Su Xi-er back to the imperial pce, Eunuch Sun would stop my people from entering with all kinds of excuses. Women who have entered the Beauty Pce belong to the Beauty Pce. They can enter the pce under my order, but leaving would be dependent on Prince Hao.


    But now that the Beauty Pce has been dissolved, every woman within will be dismissed. Now I can see how Su Xi-er is doing inside. The order to dissolve the Beauty Pce hade very abruptly. Only a few days ago, Pei Yaran had been thinking about what the woman apanying Prince Hao was like.


    After much contemtion, she only thought of two possibilities. One, she had wronged Su Xi-er. Two, Su Xi-er was not in the Beauty Pce, and was actually apanying Prince Hao at this very moment!


    Thetter daring hypothesis shed across her mind. Although it was only for a split second, it still made Pei Yaran uneasy. If it is two different women, it would be easy to deal with. If they are the same person, then... things would beplicated!


    It had never crossed Pei Yaran''s mind that Pei Qianhao''s interest in a woman couldst this long!


    That’s why I must make a trip to the Beauty Pce now!


    "Daughter, it''s best that you don''t intervene in this matter." Lu Xiangning tried to stop Pei Yaran again as she watched thetter board the pnquin.


    But it was toote, Pei Yaran had waved her hand to gesture to the imperial guards to head for the gates of the imperial pce.


    Lu Xiangning could only watch as her daughter disappeared into the distance. She hastened her steps to follow, but when she reached the gates of the imperial pce, Pei Yaran had already transferred over to a horse carriage bound for the Beauty Pce.


    The news of the Beauty ce being dissolved was like a p of roaring thunder that shook the hearts of the citizens. At least three years have passed since the establishment of the Beauty Pce. Now that it''s dissolved, what will happen to the numerous beauties within?
