Yue Chenyan looked at Emperor Tai'an with deep eyes.

When Emperor Tai'an received his look, he suddenly woke up and immediately raised his voice to the imperial steward: "Zheng Chang, please go with the steward Hu to prevent that witch from causing trouble again."

In order to compete with his mother, he has always relied entirely on King Huainan, which is actually a kind of win-win.

Of course, if this hadn't been the case, he might have been left out by his mother.

The Queen Mother's old eyes narrowed slightly, hiding the sharpness in her eyes.

But, it didn't stop...

……

That night

The night was as dark as ink, and gusts of wind and rain beat against the windows.

A low and clear voice came from the main room in Xiangyi's backyard like the wind passing through the bamboo forest: "Jiang Wanyin was given poisoned wine by the Queen Mother, and he bled to death on the spot!"

"Jiang Wanyin is dead?" Sheng Yunzhao looked surprised and looked at Yue Chenyan who came in the rain.

Yue Chenyan knew that she had been having trouble sleeping and eating because of this person, so he wanted to cheer her up, but seeing the look of surprise and doubt on her face, he couldn't help but explain: "The emperor specially sent Zheng Chang, the chief minister of the royal family, to come over. I saw Jiang Wanyin die with my own eyes, why, you are..."

In fact, it was because of what went wrong last time that he was afraid of breaking his trust with her again, so he asked the emperor to send someone to watch the person die with his own eyes, and then came to tell her after getting the right answer.

"The emperor sent someone over..." Sheng Yunzhao murmured and looked up at him, "Did the Queen Mother stop her?"

"The Queen Mother didn't stop her. In that situation, she couldn't stop the Emperor from sending someone there..." Yue Chenyan rubbed his eyebrows, remembering the Queen Mother's expression at that time, and couldn't help but say: "She also said that she was almost bewitched by Jiang Wanyin. , Why, you don’t believe it?”

Sheng Yunzhao frowned slightly, shook his head, and said thoughtfully: "I just feel that Jiang Wanyin's death was too easy..."

"Ha," Yue Chenyan laughed a little, "It's just Jiang Wanyin. You are too flattering to her. But if you are not practical, I will send someone to check her body later."

The Queen Mother has monopolized the government for many years, formed cliques for personal gain, and established a strong and deep-rooted family.

The emperor has been working hard to seize power, and he will not let go of the opportunity to oppose the queen mother.

Yue Chenyan believed that the emperor still expected him to help him, so he would not deceive him.

Although Yue Chenyan was decisive in his actions, he was not a careless person. Sheng Yunzhao believed in him.

She shook her head, "Forget it, since it was Zheng Chang who saw the person die with his own eyes, I can't be wrong."

Yue Chenyan's eyes swept across her lower abdomen. It had only been a few days since they last met, and her waist had become thicker, and he felt a little warm.

The reason why he took the initiative to approach her was not because he cared about the child.

But because what is pregnant in her belly is probably his and hers, all because this person is her.

The two were silent for a moment. Sheng Yunzhao remembered that Yue Chenyan had helped her a lot, and found that he was in a trance.

He reciprocated his kindness and said, "Last time, the prince asked me for help to try to save a person. I don't know when he will come?"

This was originally a deal between the two of them, and she had always been thinking about it.

Yue Chenyan came back to his senses, looked outside, and frowned slightly, "I'm not in the capital now. Let's wait until the rain stops for a while before going..."

She was pregnant now, and he was worried that the road would be slippery in the rain.

In fact, it doesn't matter. Sheng Yunzhao wanted to say that she didn't have to walk, but she didn't dare to be careless, so she said: "When the rain stops, the prince can come and pick me up. I can go with you at any time."

She actually agreed without even asking who he wanted her to help save, and warmth surged in her heart.

In fact, he didn't give up hope. Whether it was people from the sacred mountain or some famous doctors, he had invited them.

It's just that it's been too long, and if you force it off, the person will probably die immediately, so I just wanted to let her give it a try, so it's not bad for a few days.

At this moment, there was a slight movement outside the window. Yue Chenyan's ears twitched slightly and he couldn't help but glance out.

There was a trace of imperceptible anger hidden in that look, but he did not do anything else. Instead, he said lightly: "It's getting late, you should rest early."

After saying that, he turned around and opened the window almost unexpectedly. His slender and tall body instantly flew out like a civet cat.

Before Sheng Yunzhao could react, the window had been closed, and not even a drop of rain fell in. If it weren't for the fresh and moist air in the room, Sheng Yunzhao would have thought that he had not gone out. She only felt that her eyes were covered with flowers and the person was gone. .

It's just that tonight's Yue Chen Banquet felt a little strange to her, and she didn't stay as long as usual.

Every time he came over, he would stay for at least an hour before leaving. Sometimes when she wasn't here, he might stay with her for a while.

But this was the first time I was in such a hurry.

And she felt like he had something on his mind tonight?

Facts have proved that Sheng Yunzhao's guess was not wrong. Yue Chenyan did have something on his mind, otherwise he would not have come and gone in a hurry.

He carried Qinggong all the way and went directly to Qianyage. After entering his own private room, there was a slight dampness in his hair.

He ignored it and went to the desk to look at the map.

What is drawn on the map is a map of the rivers in the south. If he follows what he said and repairs all the way up, after this period of time, even if there is a flash flood, it will be foolproof.

It was such a hot day a while ago, and it hardly rained. The ground was so hot that it cracked. .

It's August now, and unexpectedly it's raining continuously.

It has been raining for three days and two nights in a row now, and it is raining non-stop. This reminds him of what Yun Zhao said about the natural disaster in August, which is what worries him.

Especially Jiang Wanyin also said the same thing.

Jiang Wanyin had a plan, so he said it in the way of a dream revealed by the gods, so he could ignore it.

And Yun Zhao also said so, so he naturally believed it.

He was thinking of sending someone to send a message to King Rui, asking him to inspect carefully.

At this time, Feng Shi walked in quickly from outside and said, "Master, King Rui is back. Since the key to the palace was locked, he came directly to our palace."

Yue Chenyan suddenly raised his head, a sharp look flashed in his eyes, "Nonsense!"

Feng Shi also felt that King Rui was too willful and reckless, "Master, do you want me to send him away?"

Yue Chenyan looked coldly and thought for a moment, "Let him come here."

As soon as Feng Shi left, he leaned back, raised his hand and pinched his eyebrows, feeling a little tired.

There was a vague uneasiness in his heart, which was an uneasiness that was beyond human control.

He was afraid that what Yun Zhao said would really happen, and if so, Da Chu would be seriously injured.

"Zi Chen, you are so late at night that you don't come back home, which makes me suspect that your temperament has changed drastically. You have been seduced by a beauty. You are lying drunk and gentle in the countryside. Who knows that you are still the same as before..." Rui Wang came in with a smile on his face and joked.
