In Kunning Palace, Queen Su Yunqing was sitting on the phoenix throne with her hand on her forehead.

"Brother, what should we do with the prince's current condition? Everyone in the court is avoiding him!"

Su Heng snorted coldly, "The prince is too ambitious. He made friends with these people privately without even consulting me. I'm afraid that even if he becomes king, he won't protect the Su family."

"He was just confused for a moment. If he is not allowed to sit in that position, can he feel at ease if he helps someone else's brother?"

"Even if we have to take action, it's not now. We have to make him fall into a desperate situation. Only then will he know who is best for him and be obedient in the future."

Su Yunqing looked at Su Heng and said sincerely, "He is my only support and also your blood relative. I hope you can help the prince out of this predicament as soon as possible."

Su Heng took a sip of tea and said calmly, "Don't worry, I know what to do about this matter and I won't ignore him."

Then he said coldly: "But you have to control your Lingyue. You spoiled her too much in the past and indulged her beyond reason. Now Xiao Yu has extended his hand to the Duke Dingguo Mansion. I wonder how much she has contributed."

The queen was shocked, "What did Xiao Yu do?"

Su Heng put down his teacup and said in a cold voice, "He sent people into the secret room of our Dingguo Mansion, but they only had time to move one box away. The rest were burned."

The Queen was puzzled, "Why would Yue'er attack her own family? Did you ask her?"

"It was she and Jiang Fu who caused the Duke Dingguo's Mansion to lose face. She didn't tell you this, did she?"

The queen shook her head in astonishment, "No."

"Besides, she is not as obedient as she appears to be. Xing'er has seen it with her own eyes. She often meets with the Crown Prince in private, as well as King Jing. I even heard her say with my own ears that she wants to be the Queen."

"Forget about the crown prince, he is a family member after all, and either of the two sisters can be the one, but if Prince Jing and Xiao Yu ascend to the supreme throne, your status as queen and the Duke Dingguo Mansion will be over. Has she ever considered this for you?"

The queen was shocked at this time. Yue'er had always been well-behaved and no one had ever told her these things. Moreover, she refused to go back home with the prince on their wedding night.

If she wanted to be the queen, why did she reject the prince that day and return to Prince Su's mansion?

"Brother, I will ask Yue'er about this matter."

Su Heng said in a deep voice: "Don't alert the enemy. Xiao Yu doesn't know yet, but I already know that he was the one who burned the secret room."

"Don't worry, brother. I know."

Su Lingyue didn't know about the conversation in the palace yet.

She also didn't know that Su Heng did this to create a rift between her and the Queen.

From then on, she had no shelter.

Without the Queen's protection, Su Lingyue is nothing!

At this time, Su Lingyue was eating iced melon and listening to Ji Tang talking about the prince's condition. She seemed to be in a very good mood.

This situation where everyone despises him must make Xiao Changshi feel more miserable than death.

When people are frustrated, their will is weakest, and it is a good time to take action.

Su Lingyue swallowed the melon in her mouth and smiled brightly, "Come with me out of the house in the afternoon."

Ji Tang cupped his hands, "Yes, Master."

Su Lingyue put on the same men's clothes as before, changed his beard into a mustache, and his eyebrows into sword-like eyebrows.

"How do I look like this? Do I look like a man?"

Su Lingyue turned around in front of Caidie Caiyi and opened the folding fan in her hand.

Caidie Caiyi looked at Su Lingyue and felt that there was something strange about her, but she couldn't tell what it was.

"Sister, it's a bit weird, isn't it!"

"Yeah, but what's weird about that?"

"do not know."

Su Lingyue didn't care. As long as others couldn't recognize her, she was very satisfied with her appearance.

"Jitang, let's go."

Ji Tang's eyebrows twitched when he looked at Su Lingyue, but he finally followed.

Ji Tang drove the carriage and took Su Lingyue to stop in front of a three-story building.

"Master, we're here."

After getting off the carriage, Su Lingyue looked at the three big words "Jiaofangsi" at the door and some officials walking in. She straightened her clothes and then walked in with Ji Tang.

Seeing Su Lingyue and Ji Tang come in, a nanny in her forties came forward to greet them.

"You two..." She looked at Su Lingyue. With her years of experience, she could tell something was wrong at a glance.

She glanced at the tall and strong Ji Tang beside her and the sword at his waist, and immediately understood.

"My two lords, this is the official land. Only officials appointed by the court can enter."

Su Lingyue approached her, put a silver ingot into her hand, and said in a rough voice: "We heard that the girls here dance beautifully, and my friend has always wanted to see them."

As he said this, he pushed Ji Tang, who was standing beside him with a fierce look, in front of her.

Since the money was in place and they couldn't afford to offend, the nanny no longer insisted. Instead, she put on a flattering smile and pulled Ji Tang's arm to lead him inside.

"I wonder what kind of beauty this gentleman likes?"

Ji Tang was at a loss as to what to do, his body froze there, motionless.

From childhood to adulthood, he has never come into contact with any women, except his mother and Su Lingyue.

His mother is the one who gave birth to him, Su Lingyue is his master, and his life belongs to her.

Apart from this, no other woman had ever come into contact with him.

Su Lingyue couldn't help laughing when she saw Ji Tang like this, "Mammy, he came here in the name of Miss Mu Feiyan."

Holding Ji Tang's hand, he was stunned, "Sir, you should choose someone else. Miss Feiyan is not receiving guests recently."

Su Lingyue suppressed her smile, "He just wanted to see Miss Feiyan dance."

The nanny saw that although Su Lingyue was not tall, the irresistible oppression she exuded at the moment frightened her.

"Auntie... Sir, it's not that I don't want you to see me, but Miss Feiyan has to be on call anytime to perform at the Prince's Mansion."

Su Lingyue raised a scornful smile at the corner of her lips, "When the prince sees me, I'm afraid he will be polite to me."

"My friend just wants to see Miss Feiyan dance. As long as the Prince's Mansion summons her, Miss Feiyan can leave at any time."

Seeing that Su Lingyue was generous and had an extraordinary temperament, and even said that even the prince had to give her some courtesy, it was clear that her identity was not simple.

Nanny didn't want to offend Su Lingyue, so she said, "Okay, since the young master said so, please follow me."

Then, Su Lingyue and Ji Tang were taken to the private room on the third floor.

Su Lingyue sat down at the table, and Ji Tang stood behind Su Lingyue as usual.

Su Lingyue felt helpless looking at Ji Tang like this.

"Come on, sit down! I've already told everyone that you're my friend, so why are you standing?"

After hearing what Su Lingyue said, Ji Tang thought about it and felt that what Su Lingyue said made sense, so he did not refuse and sat down on the stool next to her.

After a while, a woman dressed in cool red gauze walked in.

Seeing Su Lingyue stunned for a moment, he looked at Ji Tang beside him and saw that he was a normal man, just as the nanny said.

But this woman dressed as a man looks somewhat familiar.

"Fei Yan greets the two gentlemen!"

Su Lingyue lowered her voice and said in a rough voice: "Miss Feiyan is really stunningly beautiful, no wonder she was chosen to go to the Prince's Mansion."

Feiyan bowed and saluted, her voice as pleasant as a silver bell, "Sir, you are too kind."

Her attitude was not as fawning as that nanny's; it was exactly what an oiran should be like.

Su Lingyue looked at the graceful Feiyan and said, "I heard that Miss Feiyan is an excellent dancer. Please dance with her!"
