There were footsteps, very heavy.

The man walked slowly towards them, bringing with him a pure yet enchanting exotic floral scent.

In A Bao's eyes, the swaying black veil looked like waves in the black sea.

In a flash, she saw with her own eyes a dark shadow blowing up a tinderbox and lighting a candle.

Suddenly, the whole room was bright.

The flickering yellow candlelight outlined a silhouette on the black curtain.

The silhouette was tall, and every line was sharp and hard as if carved by a knife or an axe. The facial features were tough and unruly, revealing a chill that sank into the deepest part of the icy abyss.

"Princess Diyang of Daqi, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the East Palace."

The cold silhouette on the black curtain had a hoarse voice that seemed to have been burned by fire, and every word he spoke seemed to contain hot yellow sand and a strong smell of blood.

A Bao suddenly felt a strange feeling in his heart, distressed and reluctant.

And that dark silhouette did not give her any time to figure it out. "The most noble woman in the world, above all others, actually wants to see me?"

The dark silhouette seemed to find it extremely funny, "Reason?"

A Bao lowered his eyes and stared at the dark red marks on the floor of the torture hall beneath his feet, his mind in a tangle of emotions.

Since her rebirth, she has been reflecting day and night.

If she wants to defeat Pei Guichen, the first thing she must do is to firmly grasp the way information is circulated.

Pei Guichen's plan has been quietly unfolding. In his hands is a secret intelligence network spread across the world that has been accumulated by several generations of the Huaiyang Pei family.

From the Imperial Astronomical Observatory's Imperial Master in the Imperial Capital, Eunuch Su, and even the four territories and vassal states...

But what does she have?

The royal family’s intelligence department is the Western Prison.

Responsible for the military and political intelligence of the world, spying, collecting and transmitting.

At the same time, he monitored the court officials, royal princes, vassal kings, and aristocratic families.

But Gu Qijue's "Black Impermanence" holds a sword that can eliminate evil and is only loyal to Emperor Daqi, but she is only the crown prince now.

The secret guards under Xie Wuai can be used, but they only operate in the imperial capital. Once they leave the imperial capital, they will be blind and deaf.

Therefore, the best option left for her now is to find an alliance.

In his previous life, the name of Baiyujing was well-known to Abao - it was the largest den of money-spending in the imperial capital, and also the place where the empire's largest news was gathered and dispersed.

Bai Yujing's secret intelligence network is ruthless, and all its members have Taotie tattoos as their mark.

If she could form an alliance with Bai Yujing, she would be able to collect information from the imperial capital and even the world more promptly and accurately.

The only problem, however, is that the master behind Baiyujing is a mystery.

Even in her previous life, during the ten years when she sat on the throne of Taiji Palace, although she had been sending secret guards to investigate the master behind Baiyujing, the information she had learned was all insignificant.

I'm afraid that's the only one that's somewhat useful.

All kinds of people in the imperial capital respectfully call the real master behind Baiyujing as Rakshasa Buddha.

It seems to be saying that he is kind-hearted but also cold-hearted, soft-handed but also cruel.

When dealing with such a mysterious and powerful figure, Po has his own plans in mind.

"I'm sure you're aware of everything that happened in Runyu Pavilion on the third floor tonight."

"Why was Li Si able to openly bring the abducted woman into Baiyujing and even try to give her a love potion? Isn't he envious?"

"Those acacia medicines are not to be envied by the immortals. How many people in Baiyujing have used them?"

"As far as I know, Baiyujing has its own rules. Li Si's actions have violated Baiyujing's bottom line and severely slapped your face, Luosha Buddha."

Behind the black curtain, the Rakshasa Buddha in the legend did not utter a word.

A Bao said coldly, "The reason why Baiyujing can stand firm in the imperial capital is because of its rules. Li Si broke the rules again and again, and what he destroyed was the reputation of Baiyujing."

"The New Year is coming soon. I'm here to give you New Year gifts."

Ah Bao got straight to the point and said, "Your Baiyujing is not an iron bucket. There is another force in Baiyujing that you don't know about."

"I can help your Baiyujing to uncover the hidden power."

After a long time.

The voice that was burned by fire came from behind the black curtain.

"You come to give me gifts, so I must give you gifts in return." The kind-hearted yet cruel Rakshasa Buddha asked in a deep voice, "What does Your Highness the Princess want?"

A Bao secretly clutched Xuanyuan Fengran's jade button in his sleeve, remained silent for a moment, took a deep breath and said, "After that, I would like to ask Luosha Buddha to join forces with me."

Behind the black curtain, Rakshasa Buddha was silent for a while.

Suddenly, countless loud noises were heard in the night sky, followed by the sound of firecrackers.

The Rakshasa Buddha behind the black curtain sighed faintly, "This is the beginning of the Little New Year's fireworks."

Po's eyes lit up and he nodded, "Yes, it's beautiful."

The sky is full of brilliant colors, the lights are flowing, the city is filled with pearl lanterns, as bright as day, illuminating the prosperity of the imperial capital.

Po recalled being in the bustling palace city in previous years, but always felt lonely.

This year……

A Bao felt warm in her heart, Xuanyuan Fengran was waiting for her to come back.

He said, take your time, don't rush.
