Chapter 703: Uproar in the Palace <1>"What is it?" Princess Mu Fei Xin turned around to look at Prince Yang Lu in confusion.
"Would we be able to find out by following her if she really plans something for First Young Miss Nan?" Prince Yang Lu leaned closer and whispered near Princess Mu Fei Xin's ear. This was not something that servants supposed to hear, so he whispered near her ear.
The servants all lowered their heads.
They were not allowed to see the intimacy of their masters, so they chose to look at the decorations on their shoes. It didn't seem to be that bad and they had cleaned it thoroughly before.
Princess Mu Fei Xin's eyes flashed for a moment before she shook her head. "It might seem plausible, but we'll be too late because she'll only pay a visit when everything is over."
Right.
There was no need for her to check the whereabouts of Nan Hua personally since it could be done by the servants around her. They could report when everything was ready to Princess Hu and all.
Prince Yang Lu mumbled, "How troublesome." Fiind updated novels at novelhall.com
Princess Mu Fei Xin could only reveal a helpless smile. She reacted too late because Nan Hua was faster than her. If Nan Hua and that servant walked a bit slower, she might have been able to catch up to them in order to stop them.
"However, I can't rule out the possibilities that there might be someone among the young ladies who will move in accordance to her order." Princess Mu Fei Xin furrowed her eyebrows.
"Send some servants to keep on looking while we return first. Let's take a look at the situation in the selection."
"Alright."
The two of them returned to the courtyard, but they couldn't see Princess Hu anywhere. It seemed that while she was heading towards here, she didn't stop in the courtyard where the Empress Selection took place and instead continued going.
Then the rebellions incident happened.
He did talk a lot with Emperor Yang Zhou, but their relationship with each other was not that good to the point that they would trust the other party. Since then, he had only met with Emperor Yang Zhou a few times in order to talk about the officials who used to follow him and now followed Emperor Yang Zhou because of his words.
They had reached an agreement.
But just now, Prince Yang Lu realized that his older brother actually told him about this matter.
"I can't tell you until it happened." Prince Yang Lu flashed an apologetic smile.
"It's fine."
Princess Mu Fei Xin understood that there were some matters that were not allowed to be said. She simply nodded to express her understanding. It was all matters that she definitely couldn't pry because it involved the nation.
She was not that busybody.
"In this drawing room is the last test." Empress Dowager Yan swept her gaze across the ladies in front of her. In fact, she knew that the criteria to select the Empress that Emperor Yang Zhou wanted was not for them to be the top of all subjects.
But for them to have sufficient knowledge and good character.
It was also because of this that Empress Dowager Yan made many mental note inside her mind when she analyzed these girls in front of her. The standard hasn't been that high, which was why there were still several of them who followed her.
"Your Highness, do you smell that?" one of the young ladies suddenly remarked.
"Smell?"
At that question, they all began to sniff around and realized that there was indeed some kind of weird smell lingering in the air.
