The prince disliked her, and the legitimate daughter was reborn and married to the regent

"The Regent is seriously injured and unconscious?"

After saying this, Yun Nian could feel that Xiyu was staring at her closely. His burning and blazing gaze lingered on her face, as if he was trying to find something from it.

She tried to open her eyes wide and looked back without blinking. Her trembling fingertips clenched into fists under her sleeves. Her tone was light and doubtful.

"What's going on? Someone wants to assassinate him? Just say that being ruthless will make people hate you."

But it's only been four or five days, and even yesterday the mute slave didn't have any special reaction, so why did Xiyu say such words today?

Did he discover something? Was he trying to trick her? Or did something really happen to Wei Qingjue after she left?

She was a little anxious, but she didn't show it. Seeing that there was nothing unusual on her face, Xiyu softened her tone.

"The situation that night was very chaotic. It was said that the imperial concubine poisoned her, and then Ning Sinian ordered the assassin to do it."

When he mentioned this, he couldn't help but feel a little disdainful.

"Poisoning and gang fighting, the methods are not worthy of being shown on the stage. The guards in the palace are like dead people, useless. It is normal for the regent to be injured."

Hearing this, Yun Nian's heart moved slightly, and her long eyelashes blinked slowly in the dim light.

"I received news in the middle of the night that the regent has not attended court for the past two days. Half of the palace wall near Chang'an Palace has collapsed. Prince Jinyang requested in court that the crown prince should take the throne, saying that the country cannot be without a ruler for a day. The prime minister did not agree and only said to wait until the regent wakes up before making a decision."

Ning Sinian acted too quickly. Even Xiyu only found out that they had asked the top experts of Feiyu Tower to participate in the assassination when she went to see the Second Elder yesterday.

"I know what the Prince of Jinyang is thinking. He is a ruthless man with wicked ambitions. He will never accept a person of similar status to become the regent."

But Xiyu didn't expect that King Jinyang would just let his son do whatever he wanted, and neither he nor the princess tried to stop him?

Ning Sinian seems to be a playboy who doesn't care about fame and fortune, but he is more vindictive than anyone else and has a very narrow mind. He was the most distinguished of the four princes of Luochuan, but he didn't expect Wei Qingjue to turn things around overnight and become someone he couldn't even catch up with.

He had already been dissatisfied, and Yun Nian's appearance beside the Regent was just the last straw that forced him to make a decision.

"Is my father involved? What about my brother?"

Only then did her tone become anxious.

"At least judging from the situation in the court, the Prime Minister does not seem to be on the same side as the Prince of Jinyang. However, if they do not join forces, it is impossible for one side to seriously injure the Prince Regent."

Xiyu sneered, making no effort to hide his sarcasm towards the treacherous situation in the court. In his opinion, no matter who was sitting on the dragon throne, it had nothing to do with him. The only person he cared about was his master.

Yun Nian knew that most of what he said was true. Ning Sinian had already taken action against the Regent in his previous life. In this life, his temper seemed to be even more impatient.

If Wei Qingjue was injured, she would have to get rid of the poison in her body as soon as possible and return to Luochuan.

Although she couldn't help much, at least she really wanted the Regent to be alive.

Xiyu originally just wanted to test whether the Regent had a special place in her heart. Now seeing that Yun Nian still looked indifferent or even disgusted, her eyebrows flew up.

"I've asked the mute slave to get breakfast, all of which are your favorites. Today we can..."

"Little Lord!"

Xiyu's words were interrupted, and he turned his head with an unfriendly look. The disciple in white clothes outside the door bowed and saluted.

"The Great Elder invites you over."

"Is that guy back?"

Xiyu frowned, and her rage was suppressed. She originally wanted to have a meal with her master,

"Yes."

It seemed that he had to go. He changed his posture, lying next to Yun Nian, and rubbed her hand with his head.

"Master, wait for me to come back."

After saying this, he stood up silently, his expression changed in an instant, and the mute slave hurried over. When he saw the young master, he immediately lowered his head and gave way.

"Keep an eye on her. If she doesn't use enough, I don't think we need to keep her as a cook."

The mute slave nodded hurriedly and waited for the people to leave before entering.

Yun Nian observed the expression of "her" who came in. He didn't know whether the mute slave didn't receive the message at all or the undercover agents were good at disguise. At least Yun Nian didn't see any trace of anxiety between "her" brows.

"Put it here. Go and close the door first."

The light in the room suddenly dimmed, and the mute slave stood beside Yun Nian with his head lowered.

"How do you usually communicate with His Highness?"

"The servants of Feiyu Tower have a break once a month and can go to nearby towns to do some shopping. I often go to a clothing store, and the owner there is also the king's man."

Contact once a month? It seems that the message can't be delivered so promptly. How come her message was known just in time?

As if he could see the doubt on her face, the mute slave hurriedly explained,

"When the young lady came, it was the day I came back from my day off, so I knew that if there was an emergency and it wasn't my day off, there would be a special way to contact her."

"I am not the only one who has the king's help in Feiyu Tower. I don't know his identity either. I only know that if there is any important news, I will wear a hairpin with a crabapple flower and walk across the water bridge here at noon. Someone will naturally take the secret letter from my room at night."

The mute slave had no intention of hiding anything and even told Yun Nian all the special contact information, obviously trusting him very much.

Her soft fingertips rested on her smooth chin, her eyebrows and eyes were dim,

"That is to say, if any news is sent over, it will be known at the clothing store, right?"

If she wanted to know whether Wei Qingjue was safe, she would need to go to the shop that the mute slave mentioned. However, Feiyu Tower was not a place where people could enter and exit at will. Xiyu looked like she was going to live here with her for a long time.

Thinking of this, Yun Nian could only smile helplessly. When Xiyu came back, he would tell him that he wanted to go to the market.

Actually, being alone in the room, there seemed to be nothing else to do except sleeping and daydreaming. Yun Nian frequently looked at the sky outside the window. It had been a long time since lunch, but Xiyu still hadn't come.

If this drags on, it will be dark soon and she will have to wait until tomorrow to go out.

But she didn't want to wait at all.

Yun Nian walked to the door and was about to try to get closer to the tower to look for someone, but the door was pushed open.

"Owner?"

Xiyu had a childish smile on her face.

"Let's go to the market together tonight."
