Chapter 156 Achilles' heel

"Mei Ji saved the Empress Dowager? How could it be so coincidental? The Empress Dowager found Mei Ji when she saw that the situation was not good. But I don't understand why Mei Ji and the Empress Dowager were involved?" Yan Xun'er smiled coldly. She would just deceive others for such a reason. The Empress Dowager just didn't know how to summon Mei Ji into the palace, so she thought of a way.

"Maybe it was the time when the Empress Dowager left the palace to pray for blessings." Concubine Hui looked at Yan Xun'er's thoughtful look and wanted to help.

"No, if that were the case, how could Meiji help the empress dowager so wholeheartedly? There must be something deeper in this, but this is not the most urgent thing." Yan Xun'er shook her head, denied Concubine Hui's guess, and then temporarily stopped thinking deeply and looked at Concubine Hui deeply.

"Is there anything else?" Concubine Hui tilted her head and looked at Yan Xun'er in confusion and asked.

"Yes, it's your business." Yan Xun'er nodded confidently. Concubine Hui was Gu Muqing's fatal weakness.

"Me? I'm no longer favored, I can't help much." Concubine Hui said dimly, not because of Gu Muqing, but because she blamed herself for not being able to help Yan Xun'er, and lowered her head deeply.

"Whether you are favored depends on the situation tomorrow. Let's bet." Yan Xun'er looked at Concubine Hui and had an idea in her mind, but she still had to look at Concubine Hui's attitude. Yan Xun'er would not force her.

"I listen to you." Concubine Hui looked at Yan Xun'er's encouraging eyes, her face turned slightly red, and she said shyly.

"Since that's the case, tomorrow..." Yan Xun'er has no intention of caring about Concubine Hui's emotional problems with her. These things are too complicated. Yan Xun'er couldn't figure it out, so she simply put it aside first and whispered her thoughts in Concubine Hui's ear. Concubine Hui nodded repeatedly.

"If the emperor really doesn't care, then it's different. But I think the emperor will care. At that time, try to inquire about Meiji. Remember to be careful not to make the emperor suspicious." Yan Xun'er gave some reassurance. Yan Xun'er didn't want her to be hurt in her heart. Since Xiao Tan left, Yan Xun'er is now afraid that something happened to someone else.

"Don't worry, I will never let you down." Concubine Hui gritted her teeth and nodded firmly and replied. In this world, Concubine Hui's greatest wish is to make Yan Xun'er happy. She can do anything for this. Maybe this is the power of love.

"It depends on tomorrow. You should rest soon." Yan Xun'er finished explaining the matter and turned around to leave. Who knew that Concubine Hui grabbed Yan Xun'er's sleeve.

"Me, you, can you watch me fall asleep before leaving?" Concubine Hui said hesitantly. She just wanted to see Yan Xun'er more and let him accompany her more. It's really lonely to be alone in the palace.

"Okay." Yan Xun'er hesitated for a moment, looked at Concubine Hui's pleading eyes, and finally agreed. She carefully covered up a brocade quilt for Concubine Hui and watched her fall asleep beside the bed.

"Xun'er, the palace is so deserted these days you have been away. I always feel that there is nothing in this palace worth my nostalgia. You are finally back. It's great." Concubine Hui held Yan Xun'er's hand and said with emotion. It seems that she has been a long time and has not slept so peacefully. Every night when she wakes up and looks at the men around her, Concubine Hui feels that she is very dirty. No matter how much love she is, she can't warm her cold heart. However, even if she stays by Yan Xun'er, she feels warm even if she doesn't say anything, and gradually falls asleep.

"Let's go, let's leave the palace overnight and go to Chen Mansion." Yan Xun'er blew out the candles in the bedroom, allowing Concubine Hui to sleep more peacefully. She turned around and said to Youying. The figures of the two disappeared into the night instantly.

"Father, what should we do? Should our son give a memorial tomorrow and give advice to Concubine Hui?" When Yan Xun'er arrived at Chen's mansion, she heard this voice. Without looking at it, she knew that this was the voice of Prince Chen's anxious son.

"Xun'er will come soon. Let's wait for her news. Don't be so impatient. How many times have you told you to your father?" Prince Chen's helpless voice came, and Yan Xun'er smiled slightly. It seemed that the father and son were still trustworthy.

"The adoptive father is as beautiful as he is, Xun'er admires it." Yan Xun'er said with a smile, gently pushing open the carved wooden door in front of him.

"I read it right, I'm waiting for your order now." Prince Chen felt very comforted when he saw Yan Xun'er so confident and calm, and said with a smile.

"The adoptive father was joking, Xun'er dared not." Yan Xun'er waved his hand quickly. Since he trusted them, he would naturally not see him like that again.

"I won't talk about anything else. It's not easy for you to leave the palace once. Just tell me what you have, so as not to have any trouble if you go back late." After Prince Chen lost his beloved daughter, he treated Yan Xun'er sincerely. Not only did he treat her like his daughter, but he also thought about her everywhere. This moved Yan Xun'er very much. The fatherly love that he had never had before was experienced in Prince Shen, so warmth.

"I just went to Hongying Palace. If everything goes well, my adoptive father will get news tomorrow. Then the adoptive father will know what to do." Yan Xun'er didn't say it too bluntly. Prince Chen must know more than himself as an official in the court for so long, so he naturally knows what time is the best.

"Okay, I'm still worried these days, but now it seems that it's redundant." Prince Chen nodded. All Yan Xun'er's decisions seemed to be right in his opinion and the timing was good. At least it was a decision made calmly.

"What's the situation in the court now? How many people are controlled by the empress dowager?" Yan Xun'er was the only one. It was too difficult to investigate. Even if Youying is capable, she is still powerless. Therefore, Prince Chen is the best choice. No one understands the form in the court better than him.

"Most of the officials in the court originally had no clear attitude, but the recent appearance of Meiji disrupted the situation. Half of the officials stood on the side of the empress dowager, and half of the officials still did not express their opinions." Prince Chen told Yan Xun'er the situation in the court. There was no way to control everyone. This was also the powerless place for Prince Chen.

"Those half of the people who did not express their opinions must be the subject who was following the leader of the adopted father." Yan Xun'er said with a smile, it was not difficult to guess this.

"Now I want to compete with the Queen Mother, it's hard to say the winner." Prince Chen nodded and looked at Yan Xun'er with admiration, but the words said were a bit negative, but this was a fact.

"Don't worry, adoptive father, Xun'er will not be impulsive." Yan Xun'er knew what Prince Chen meant and spoke to comfort her. She was not such an impulsive person, so Prince Chen could rest assured.

"Dad, what are you talking about? If you have anything I can do, just say it, who made you my sister?" Chen Hongjie was neglected for a long time. He stepped forward with some reluctance to interrupt the conversation between the two and said to Yan Xun'er generously.

"Why do I teach you if there is no rules?" Prince Chen said with regret, his voice stern, a little different from what he looked like when he spoke to Yan Xun'er.

"I'm not what you taught me." Chen Hongjie muttered in a low voice. Why is he always talking about it? It turns out that Chen Siyun is still there, but he is scolded, and now he is Yan Xun'er, but he is scolded, which is really angering.

"What did you say? You are so brave, little bastard." Prince Chen had a quick ear. Hearing Chen Hongjie's complaint, he shouted sternly. Yan Xun'er laughed. Only when getting along like a family is like a family.

"Enjoyant Father, Xun'er will say goodbye first." Yan Xun'er knew what she wanted to know, so she said goodbye and left, so as not to be discovered by Meiji. Now the palace is full of her eyeliners, so you must be careful.

"Be careful." Prince Chen did not try to keep Yan Xun'er away. He sighed quietly. The child was responsible for too much, and all he could do was to do was to help her and repay his daughter's kindness.

"Master, the people near the house of the generals of the Tiger Roar Army have changed." Back to Jingxuan Palace, Yan Xun'er had not yet rested, Youying told Yan Xun'er about the investigation.

"It's changed? What's going on?" Yan Xun'er felt a stern and immediately took it seriously. This was a matter that was related to Gu Qixiu, and she must master it.

"That's right, the imperial guards near the six generals' houses disappeared, and they were replaced by people from the Evil Moon Gate." Youying carefully observed that those people's behavior and martial arts were all from the Evil Moon Gate.

"How could such an important thing be handed over to the Xieyue Sect? Even if there is any transaction, I would not trust this point." Yan Xun'er frowned. With his understanding of Gu Muqing, Gu Muqing would not hand over such things to anyone other than her confidant, just because of his suspicious nature.

"Is it? If this is true, Gu Muqing would be too cruel." An idea flashed through Yan Xun'er's mind that she couldn't believe it, but it was not surprising that Gu Muqing would do such a thing.

"Master, what's wrong?" Youying has changed a lot now. She didn't ask any more questions, but now she has begun to take the initiative to share Yan Xun'er's worries.

"Why do you think a king who wants to have the power alone and control everything is willing to remove his confidant and replace him with someone else?" Yan Xun'er smiled deeply and asked Youying.

"Didn't you say that you have reached an agreement with Mei Ji?" Youying instinctively answered. Is there any other reason?

"Agreement? What can an agreement have? What is the most reassuring thing is that the person who replaces is still his confidant." Yan Xun'er smiled coldly. The agreement was just a sentence. Gu Muqing and the person who shared the bed with her bed did not believe it, let alone a verbal agreement.

"Confidant? But they are from the Evil Moon Sect. Could it be that the Evil Moon Sect has already..." Youying understood as she said that she could not have imagined that such an Evil Moon Sect would be destroyed.
