After returning from rebirth, the eldest sister of Hou family destroyed her household registration b

After burning half a stick of incense, Xian Yue left the palace first, accompanied by Qin Li, while Xiao Jinzhi took Chu Huanyan back to the back wall of Fengyi Hall... again.

"His Highness said that he knew more, so he brought his daughter to listen to the Queen's corner?" Chu Huanyan lowered her voice very low, but the speechlessness still showed through.

Xiao Jinzhi smiled and winked at her, signaling her to be quiet, "This place is very secluded, and I can hear the conversation in the palace clearly."

Chu Huanyan looked at Xiao Jinzhi, "Your Highness comes here often?"

The other party looked familiar, and it really didn't look like it was the first time he was eavesdropping.

"I came here often when I was a child. Of course, just now Miss Chu came to see my mother, and I also came here."

Because of this, he knew about Chu Huanyan testing the jade pendant.

Chu Huanyan was amused. It turned out that she had developed a habit of eavesdropping since childhood.

Without saying anything else, she began to listen attentively to the conversation in the palace. Since everyone was already here, let's see if she could hear some useful information.

In the bedroom, Queen Wei carefully inspected the jade pendant just now and found nothing wrong.

I checked it again by the candlelight and found that it was indeed just an ordinary piece of white jade with some patterns engraved on it. Other than that, there's really nothing special about it.

"Is it possible that I am overly concerned?" Queen Wei put down the jade pendant in her hand.

"Your Majesty, maybe it's really just an ordinary piece of jade pendant. The Marquis of Ning'an and his wife just kept it as a memory for their daughter," Taoyao said.

She really couldn't see what was special about this jade pendant.

Queen Wei thought for a moment and handed the jade pendant to Taoyao, "Send someone to the Marquis of Ning'an's mansion tomorrow and say you found it."

"Yes."

Empress Wei picked up the tea cup next to her, frothing on each cup, "Although five years have passed, some things still make people uneasy."

At the window on the back wall, Chu Huanyan frowned.

It has been five years...

Therefore, there was indeed something wrong with what happened back then, and Queen Chu must have known something.

"My Lady, you don't need to worry too much. The matter has already passed, and the Ning'an Marquis Mansion must not have known about it. Otherwise, how could there be no news or unusual news for so many years." Tao Yao comforted.

"Having said that, but..." Before Queen Wei finished her words, a report from the palace suddenly came from outside the palace.

"Your Majesty, Your Highness is here."

Queen Wei stopped talking and said no more.

Soon, Xiao Rongxuan walked into the hall.

"My son has met his mother."

"No need to be polite, have you finished playing chess with your father?" Queen Wei asked with a smile on her face.

Xiao Rongxuan shook his head, "Father seems to be in a bad mood and has no intention of playing chess. I asked my father for some advice on government affairs and then resigned."

Empress Wei thought of the green waist dance and raised her eyebrows with unknown meaning, "It's natural to be in a bad mood."

"Mother, what do you mean?"

"It's nothing." Queen Wei didn't plan to say anything more, she just motioned for Xiao Rongxuan to sit down and asked someone to bring his favorite pastry.

At the back window, Chu Huanyan was a little disappointed. Xiao Rongxuan came at the wrong time.

However, looking at this situation, Queen Wei probably won't mention what happened back then.

Chu Huanyan looked at Xiao Jinzhi, and when she was thinking about asking him to take her away to prevent being discovered, she heard Xiao Rongxuan mentioning herself.

"Mother, didn't you promise me to test the relationship between Chu Huanyan and Xiao Jinzhi before? Why did you let her out of the palace so easily today?" Xiao Rongxuan was puzzled.

Chu Huanyan held her breath and listened carefully to the conversation in the hall again.

"There is no need to rush, I am afraid that Chu Huanyan will have many opportunities to enter the palace in the future." Queen Wei said leisurely.

The green waist dance, haha, I don't know if it was accidental or intentional, but if Chu Huanyan really knew something, she wouldn't have the courage to dance the green waist dance.

Xiao Rongxuan was puzzled, "Mother, what do you mean by this?"

"You don't have to ask too many questions. Just remember what you want to do. Your mother will always help you."

"But Queen Mother, you always say that the throne must belong to my son in the end, but after so long, Xiao Jinzhi is still firmly in the position of crown prince. I really can't understand."

Xiao Jinzhi had a terrible reputation, and there were not many courtiers who supported him in both the government and the public. But neither his father nor his mother had ever shown any intention of dethroning Xiao Jin as the crown prince.

Especially his father, he could feel that his father and Xiao Jinzhi had never been close, but it seemed that his father had not wavered at all about the matter of being the crown prince.

"Xuan'er, why are you so impatient? Your father is now in good health and in the prime of life. He is far from here..."

"Mother!" Xiao Rongxuan interrupted Queen Wei, "I am not in a hurry to ascend the throne, but if Xiao Jin does not step down from the position of crown prince for a day, I will not be able to feel at ease for a day, and I will always be betrayed by him. Press one end. Or..."

Xiao Rongxuan paused and looked at Queen Wei.

"These words from the mother are just perfunctory. In your heart, it makes no difference whether I am a son or Xiao Jinzhi is sitting on the throne of the prince. After all, we are all your sons."

"Your Highness, how can you be so suspicious of your Majesty? You are really chilling your Majesty." Tao Yao said quickly.

Queen Wei waved her hand, indicating that Taoyao didn't need to say more.

She looked at Xiao Rongxuan and said, "Xuan'er, you know how your mother has treated you over the years and how much she has secretly planned for you."

"Of course I know it, but the position of the prince..."

"Wouldn't it be better to let Xiao Jinzhi be your target first?" Empress Wei interrupted Xiao Rongxuan, "Do you really think that the position of prince is so easy to sit on? And although you are not the prince now, but the courtiers return to their hearts, as long as everyone They all think that if you are better than Xiao Jinzhi, it will be natural for you to replace him in the future..."

Queen Wei's comforting and planning words came clearly, and Chu Huanyan couldn't help but feel cold in her heart.

Target, stepping stone...

She turned to look at Xiao Jinzhi again. How would Xiao Jinzhi feel about being plotted against by her mother and brother?

However, Xiao Jinzhi had a smile on his lips. Seeing Chu Huanyan looking over, he just spoke to her in a low voice, seemingly helpless.

"It seems that we can't hear anything about what happened back then. Let's go."

After saying that, he held Chu Huanyan's arm and flew away with her quietly.

It wasn't until he completely left Fengyi Hall that Xiao Jinzhi let go of Chu Huanyan and landed on the palace road with her.

"I will send you out of the palace." Xiao Jinzhi's tone was as usual, and there was no sense of disappointment or loss.

Chu Huanyan nodded, but couldn't help but look sideways at Xiao Jinzhi.

After hesitating for a while, she finally asked: "Isn't this the first time Your Highness has heard those words just now?"
