Just as Tian Hu was on his way to the capital with a few servants and a group of horses, Princess Yaoran was already holding a letter in her hands.

The handwriting was very scrawny and the words were not fluent. After stripping away some flattery, what was left was a very serious fact.

This was a letter for help from Su Fugui.

"Chu very?"

Xuan Yao's long crescent brows slightly knitted together, and the beauty mark between her eyebrows became more and more beautiful. She felt that this name was a little familiar, but she was unable to recall it for a while.

Zhao Ling'er, who was standing beside him, reminded him, "It's that idiot from the Chu Clan. I heard he has returned to normal."

"Oh?"

Xuan Yao was in disbelief. That idiot actually returned to normal? That incident last time...

She suddenly remembered that last time she went to the Chu family to investigate. Thinking back now, maybe that brat was just acting like a fool, but he knew the situation like the back then very well. However, in order to protect himself, he chose to be an idiot.

However, the fox's tail must have leaked out after all.

Zhao Ling'er's heart skipped a beat. She knew her master's personality. The sweeter her smile, the more dangerous the situation would be.

Sure enough, a sinister voice came out from Xuan Yao's smile, "Looks like this Chu Clan kid really does have to silence everyone. This is a good opportunity, but with brother emperor's temper, Su Fugui's good-for-nothing son actually teased you."

Thinking of this, her beautiful eyebrows curved again. She was more aware that no matter who it was, if someone moved, they would definitely not live. The destruction of the Minister of Industry's family was the best example.

Xuan You Ran was the emperor's most beloved daughter, a role that no one could replace.

"This matter is likely a little difficult …"

Even though she was a servant, Xuan Yao had the greatest trust in her. Therefore, there were times when she had a chance to speak up.

Xuan Yao rubbed her temples and sighed. How could she not know that this matter was extremely difficult to deal with, to the point where there was simply no possibility of it being resolved. It was very likely that the Su Clan would receive the decree tomorrow, which would lead to their destruction.

However, this was a fact that he could not tolerate.

The reason why he had been painstakingly supporting the Su Clan was so that he could store enough food, weapons, and material resources for his future development. If he were to be exterminated by the Emperor's decree, he would lose a large arm.

You hand it over to Eunuch Hong and let him take care of this matter with full authority. Although it cannot help the Su Family recover, it is enough as long as you can guarantee that the Su Family won't fall. Other than that, you have to inform Eunuch Hong and pay attention to Su Fu Gui's every move. If you have any thoughts of betraying us, immediately take action.

She was playing a game of chess, and she had to do her best to protect every chess piece. At the same time, she also had to make sure that the chess piece itself was not a threat to her, or a burden to her.

"Yes, Princess, you should rest more. For the past few days, you haven't slept much, and you rarely relax your brows. As for the major matters in the future, you will need a good body to accomplish them."

Zhao Ling'er frowned. She was worried about her master's health. These few days, it was as if Xuan Yao had her personality split and was always in an uncertain state. It was indeed a worrisome situation.

Xuan Yao faintly smiled and said: "Little girl, it's none of your business." After saying so, she began to giggle, unlike the Grand Princess who was already over thirty years old.

Zhao Ling'er was also smiling happily. Every time she was teased by her master, she would be happy. It wasn't because she was born lowly, but because she felt safe at this time, she knew that her master still believed in her.

Zhao Ling'er moved forward with small and quick steps. In a long corridor in the west side of the chamber, a white-haired old eunuch was resting with his eyes closed. A faint fragrance lingered in the room.

During these years, he seemed to have become more and more similar to a woman. He liked bright things, he liked flowers, he liked the fragrance of makeup, and he even secretly powdered his face. It was faint, and others might not be able to see it, but he felt that this way was much better for him.

He didn't know when his face had gained so many wrinkles, but his skin was getting older and older.

Eunuch Hong couldn't help but feel sad. He thought back to many years ago, when he was forced by a group of military men to be sent to the honorable room, he felt a piercing pain in his lower body. He had the urge to die, but he still persisted in living.

He knew that the Grand Princess would appear one day, giving him, the Grand Princess, a chance to sprout.

As one grew old, one would like to reminisce the past. Eunuch Hong often reminisced about the past. As long as he leaned against this soft reclining chair, he would be surrounded by nostalgia.

Things were still going on, but the process seemed to be a bit too slow. He didn't know how long he could keep this old bone up for.

"Eunuch Hong …"

He didn't know why, but every time he saw Zhao Ling'er, he would feel inexplicably happy. Perhaps it was because the moment Zhao Ling'er arrived, she would carry the instructions from the Grand Princess, and every time she did, the seed in his heart would grow even more vigorous. Perhaps it wouldn't be long before the flower would blossom.

He did not expect that he would be reused in the future. After living for so long, he did not care about these things anymore. He was very clear that he would face a situation where he wouldn't be able to handle it in the future, but that was no longer within his considerations. Right now, he only wanted to one day be able to see the person who turned him from a normal man into a cripple to have a very unhappy life.

"What is it?"

Eunuch Hong stood up with light steps. Anyone who knew a bit about cultivation would realize that this old man was also a cultivator.

Zhao Ling'er walked in with her little tongue hanging out of her mouth. After confirming that no one was secretly watching her, she quickly took out a letter from her sleeve and passed it to Eunuch Hong. "Princess, please follow the instructions."

Eunuch Hong's dazed eyes lit up. This was the first time he had seen Zhao Ling'er deliver a letter in a serious manner. In the past, she always brought a message with her, but this time it seemed that the princess was faster.
