Ye Fuxun raised his eyebrows and said, "Lu Ming, you go ahead and say it."
Lu Mingdao: "There have been rumors recently in the Lu Kingdom that the Queen will replace the Emperor and seize the imperial power... The ministers are clamoring to see His Majesty every day. They should have some bargaining chips in their hands."
Bai Yuxian frowned and said, "Why do you still ask me about this kind of thing?"
He had no intention of staying in the capital to deal with these matters. Naturally, he wanted to find out the source of the rumors and eradicate them, so he came all the way to Cangzhou to find him.
Lu Ming lowered his head and said: "Your Majesty, it was Commander Yu Heng who asked us to find you back. The rumors are part of the story. I don't know where they came from, and the source cannot be found yet. In addition... Commander Yu Heng said that the dragon vein is unstable, please hurry up. Return to the court quickly."
The former is nothing to Bai Yuxian, but the latter is obviously a much more serious problem.
If the emperor is not in charge of the court, the dragon vein will naturally be more fragile. However, the land country is at its peak and has the commander Yu Heng in charge. Logically speaking, nothing should happen, unless...
Ye Fuxun also thought of this. She patted the back of Bai Yuxian's hand and said, "Your Majesty, go back first. Regarding that rumor, I guess someone wants to take advantage of my absence from the Lu Kingdom to push my concubine to the forefront."
As for who it is, Ye Fuxun doesn't care. There are countless people coveting the position of queen, and it's not her turn to worry about these things.
"If Your Majesty does not come forward, it will only make them more rampant. Some people with evil intentions can just take this opportunity to eliminate their thoughts in one fell swoop. The issue of unstable dragon veins cannot be delayed."
Bai Yuxian frowned and nodded after a while: "You must be careful."
What surprised Ye Fuxun was that Nangong Ling was not punished, and even Tuoba Yuxuan did not do anything earth-shattering because of this. Everything was suppressed quietly.
Although it created a temporary buzz, within a few days it was overshadowed by another incident.
It was the matter of King Cangzhou proposing the marriage of his younger brother, King Xiaoyao.
King Xiaoyao is the younger brother of Cangzhou King Tuoba Yuxuan, and his princess should naturally be of high status. But what caused a huge uproar was that King Cangzhou pointed out Princess Jiaoyue to King Xiaoyao.
You must know that Princess Jiaoyue is the daughter left behind by the eldest princess, and her status is equally noble. This should have been an ideal marriage, but...
In addition to Princess Jiaoyue, there were also many women from aristocratic families who were married to Tuoba Yuze as concubines.
You must know that Tuoba Yuxuan, the king of Cangzhou, currently has only one queen in the harem. There is a reason for the king of Cangzhou to be busy with government affairs and not interested in the harem, but it is a bit uncomfortable to arrange so many marriages for his brother at once. Average.
Night fell again, and Ye Fuxun came out of Joy Building and walked around for a long time pretending to be careless. It looked like he had been wandering around the noisy streets of the royal city for a long time, but in fact he was shaking off the eyeliners following behind him.
It is true that she has now hidden her identity and blended into the thousands of ordinary people, but now the city of Cangzhou is heavily guarded and there is a lot of noise.
Those people will not let go of any doubt. Even if Ye Fulun in their eyes is just an ordinary scholar now, there is still a need to investigate.
But I won’t spend too much energy on this.
After just a few cups of tea, Ye Fuxun noticed that the vague aura behind him had disappeared. He chuckled in his heart.
Just as she had guessed, they were indeed heavily guarded, but their manpower was always limited. After confirming that she was harmless, they would not put any more effort into her.
Ye Fuxun flashed and sneaked into a nearby mansion. When she came out again, she had turned into a black shadow and slipped into the night silently.
It's late at night, in the princess's mansion.
When the eldest princess passed away when she gave birth to Princess Jiaoyue, the princess mansion was left to Princess Jiaoyue to live in.
Because the mansion is full of old people who were left behind by the princess back then, and Princess Jiaoyue has a quiet temperament, the princess mansion does not interact with the outside world at all on weekdays, and is completely invisible.
If you don't remind them deliberately, others may easily forget the existence of this princess mansion. Because of this, it is easy to find out what is going on inside the princess mansion.
At this time, the princess's mansion was already silent, the lights in the mansion were dark, and everyone had fallen asleep.
Ye Fuxun had already figured out the internal routes of the Princess Mansion, and found the courtyard where Princess Jiaoyue lived with ease. Avoiding the guards and maids outside, he quietly climbed into Princess Jiaoyue's room through the window.
Because Princess Jiaoyue is now getting married, the palace has sent many nuns and guards to protect Jiaoyue, but the name is protection, but in fact it is surveillance.
There were no lights in the room, and it was completely dark. However, this did not bring any visual obstruction to Ye Fuxun. She walked gently into the inner room and saw Princess Jiaoyue leaning on the bedside with her eyes open.
, no sleepiness at all.
"Princess Jiaoyue." Ye Fuxun whispered. She lowered her voice and sounded unpredictable.
Princess Jiaoyue was startled and looked towards the place where the sound came from, but she was just a weak woman and could not see clearly at all. She could only vaguely see a figure, and she subconsciously wanted to scream.
The next moment her mouth was covered by someone, and at the same time Princess Jiaoyue felt a gust of fragrant wind blowing towards her face. There was something familiar, but she couldn't tell who it was. Princess Jiaoyue quickly calmed down.
Ye Fuxun was a little surprised. Before she could calm down Princess Jiaoyue, she calmed down on her own. Apparently, she had underestimated her psychological quality before.
Seeing Princess Jiaoyue blinking innocently, Ye Fuxun let go of Princess Jiaoyue's mouth.
"Who are you?" Princess Jiaoyue asked softly. There was obviously a hint of nervousness in her voice, but she was very cooperative.
Ye Fuxun smiled faintly, walked by and sat down on the imperial concubine's couch, and whispered: "Maybe you don't know me, but I know you."
Princess Jiaoyue listened blankly without replying. She couldn't see Ye Fuxun's face clearly, but she only felt that her breath was familiar. She unconsciously thought that maybe she knew her.
She just couldn't tell who it was, but for no reason, she felt that the person in front of her would not harm her.
"Princess Jiaoyue, don't be afraid, I won't do anything bad to you."
Princess Jiaoyue nodded: "Well, I believe you."
Ye Fuxun's eyes became even weirder. He had previously felt that Princess Jiaoyue was simple-minded and not at all like those of Tuoba Yuxuan.
But now when faced with a stranger who came in the middle of the night and did not know his gender, he believed him so easily. This is no longer something that can be explained by his simple personality.
But this was obviously not the time to dwell on this matter. Princess Jiaoyue's cooperation was obviously beneficial to her plan, so she didn't say anything more.
