In the horse carriage, Qu Jingxi carefully placed the person in his embrace onto the soft couch.

Afraid that it would be uncomfortable if she directly fell asleep, Qu Jingxi very kindly placed her head on his lap. The big hand naturally took hold of the softness at her side.

The weather gradually turned cold, and so did that girl's hands. Since when was she so weak?

The man seemed to have thought of something, and a smile appeared on his face.

Well, then he could take care of her.

A pair of eyes from afar quickly retreated, ensuring Feng Xiwu's safety. The black wolf had already appeared in Feng Chaoying's study room at the fastest speed possible.

"General," the indifferent man said, kneeling on one knee with complete respect.

"Miss entered the palace today. The Emperor was extremely courteous to her, but I think it was due to the Prince Jing, but the empress …"

Then, he reported everything that had happened in the Cheng Ming Palace to the General Feng on the desk.

It seemed that the Prince Jing was sincere about this, so he had completed more than half of the mission.

Feng Chaoying secretly thought.

"Continue to stay by Miss's side. You must ensure her safety. Also, if anything important happens, you must tell this general."

"Yes sir!"

The black wolf obeyed and quickly disappeared into the shadows.

In the room, Feng Chaoying put down the history book in his hands, his eyes filled with thought.

According to what Mu Hanxuan had told him, the powers within the imperial court had made their move recently. If his analysis was not wrong, these powers should be split into two groups.

However, he couldn't figure it out. Other than the people at the empress's side, there was no movement on the Mu Family side.

Their movements were extremely covert, and after so long, he was still unable to discover anything. Even the only clue he had was within the palace.

The relationship between the ministers of the imperial court was complicated. Many of them were related to the concubines of the imperial concubines. It would not be an easy task to clear his meridians in a short period of time.

"What did you say?!"

Lu Yanxin's shrill voice resounded throughout the entire capital, the maid, Peaches, tried to hold on to her red and swollen cheeks and forced herself to crawl to her knees, her head bleeding from hitting the table just now.

The dishes on the table were scattered all over the place. The porcelain pot and cup were smashed into smithereens. Peaches was kneeling on the ground. The broken pieces of porcelain stabbed into her knees and calves, causing her to tremble in pain.

Her forehead was already covered with a thin layer of sweat, and her fear overcame the pain in her body. Peaches lay on her stomach, her face buried deep in the space between her hands.

"Just now, the Emperor sent Eunuch Li to spread the word that the empress did not see through the big picture and had humiliated the Imperial Family. After thinking about it for a year in the Mingxin Hall, the Emperor also heard that the empress was not feeling well recently and could not eat too greasy food, so the food would also be much lighter."

Lu Yanxin's eyes were wide opened, her fine features did not have a single trace of beauty, but her sinister and jealous look filled her entire face, to the point that her originally weak eyebrows were now looking extremely sinister.

"The emperor actually forbade me because of that bastard?!" Lu Yanxin smashed things like crazy.

"Lowly people, they are all lowly people!" It's just like Mu Hanyan, that vixen, who doesn't know shame and seduce other people's husbands! "

In the blink of an eye, the Mingxin Hall was already a mess.

A few palace maid s, led by Peaches, knelt in the middle, enduring the pain of things smashing into their bodies from time to time. Over a dozen palace maid s around them also knelt on the ground, not daring to even breathe loudly.

Ever since Imperial Noble Consort Yan entered the palace, her temper became even worse. From a few curses from before to him smashing cups, to now where there was only one disagreement: meeting something and throwing it away.

A dozen or so palace maid s were trembling in fear. Peaches' body was covered in blood, her knees, calves, and arms were all covered in blood, and her vision was slowly turning black. Peaches did not dare fall down, but she did not know if the Queen would order someone to kill her if she fainted.

"Scram, everyone scram!"

Lu Yanxin roared, her throat had become a little hoarse from the torment.

The two palace maid s by her side supported her and quickly left the place. The rest of them also followed after them.

Lu Yanxin stood in the middle of the mess that was all over the ground, the hair on the side of her head had already started to part due to her excessive movements.

She hated that even though she was from an illustrious background and of noble status, she couldn't stand against two foxes. Even her husband didn't stand on her side and helped others deal with her.

The hatred in his eyes was fierce.

Prince Jing's Consort, Mu Hanyan.

She wouldn't let them off so easily!
