Hearing An Lingjun's words, An Lingyi's mouth formed a mocking smile.

"Are you threatening me?" She also lowered her voice, the words in her mouth were full of malice, "A person who's been ordered around by Ninth Prince dares to threaten me? Be careful, I might let my aunt beg the emperor and let you return to Ninth Prince's side to serve me, and see if you still dare to threaten me like this."

The Imperial Noble Consort Li was doted upon by the Emperor. If An Lingyi did this, An Lingjun really might be recalled back into the palace by the Emperor. At that time, she could make up some excuse and say that the Ninth Prince couldn't bear to part with An Lingjun, and leave him in the palace.

"The Emperor will not let him return to the Imperial Palace." Mu Junhan and An Lingge also mentioned this matter, their expressions were somewhat assured, "Currently, all the children of the middle and high ranked officials are studying in Jingdu Academy, and even the people from the Crown Prince's Palace are no exception, they are all gathered here. The Emperor wants to gather the children of the ministers of the aristocratic families in one place so that your little brother is not an exception. "

With his hands behind his back, he stood there silently, enjoying the beautiful scenery.

An Lingge followed his gaze and looked over, only to see the Prince Yi’s Palace's Hereditary Prince Yi Ming playing not far away, laughing happily towards a seven or eight year old child.

Even Yi Ming, that idiot Hereditary Prince, had come. The emperor obviously didn't want them to come here to learn, he probably had other intentions.

No matter what the emperor's intentions were, as long as she did not call An Lingjun back to the palace, it was good news for her.

Mu Junhan looked at the scattered people, and suddenly started to walk towards the back of the mountain.

An Lingge immediately knew that Mu Junhan had some private matters to discuss, and casually followed.

At the back of the mountain was a bamboo forest, quiet and serene. It was a good place to talk.

"I wonder if Princess Hua-Yang's poison has been resolved?" With no one else present, An Lingge dared to ask about the poison in Princess Mu.

If she did not alert the enemy that day, she would not have harmed Fang Qing by suddenly increasing the quantity of the medicine, causing Princess Mu to be unconscious.

Mu Junhan's expression was actually very relaxed, "Fortunately, I discovered it early that day, so even though mufei was poisoned, it wasn't too much of a problem. As for that Fang Qing, I found something on her body."

"Have you found any clues regarding Fang Qing?" When An Lingge brought up this matter, she felt as if her eyes were shrouded by a thick layer of mist, covering the truth of this matter and making it impossible for him to see through it.

Mu Junhan took something out from his chest pocket. An Lingge took a glance at it, but she did not recognize it.

As if he knew that An Lingge didn't recognize such a thing, he introduced it to her. "When Emperor Xian was still alive, he had two sets of Dark Guard. One was responsible for protecting the Emperor's safety in the imperial palace, while the other was responsible for gathering information for the Emperor and burying them everywhere. And Fang Qing, or in other words Fang Yan, is one of the late emperor's Dark Guard. "

Emperor Xian had passed away more than twenty years ago, and the Dark Guard in his hands had naturally fallen into the hands of the current Emperor.

In other words, Fang Qing had followed the emperor's orders to lurk in the Prince An's Palace, poisoned the Princess An, and then changed his identity to the Prince Mu’s Palace. He wanted to use the same method to poison the Princess Mu, but his true identity was discovered by An Lingge, so in order to hide the truth, he had no choice but to commit suicide.

But that wasn't right.

An Lingge frowned slightly. The reason she suspected her mother's death was because she heard An Lingyi's words before she died in her previous life. An Lingyi had personally said that her mother was killed by the Madam Li.

"Fang Qing wouldn't have been sent by the Emperor." An Lingge said with certainty. If she was really like the Emperor, why would she do something to her own mother? Why would she do something to the Princess Mu?

Even if the power of the other princes was growing stronger and stronger, the Emperor suspected that these nobles shouldn't have made a move on the two consorts, shouldn't they have made a move on the Prince An and the Prince An faster and more direct?

Mu Junhan also nodded. "I wasn't sure whether or not this was actually the work of the emperor, but after looking at the Jingdu Academy, I'm finally certain that this matter definitely has nothing to do with the emperor."

"Why?" Although An Lingge's intuition had nothing to do with the Emperor, she still wanted to hear Mu Junhan's opinion.

"Have you heard of raising Gu?" Mu Junhan did not answer and instead asked. Her beautiful phoenix eyes were pitch black, making it hard for people to see through his eyes.

Raising the Gu was a secret technique on Miao Jiang's side. Due to the mysterious danger, it often appeared in the story of the storyteller.

An Lingge nodded her head, "They said that they will need to keep all the poisons in the same jar for a period of time. After those poisons fight with each other, in the end, only the most powerful poison will remain, and they will become a Gu King, and they can be refined into a poisonous worm."

"That's right, put all the poisonous creatures in the same jar and wait for them to kill each other." Mu Junhan smiled with a deeper meaning, "Isn't Jingdu Academy like this?"

The Emperor, disregarding the opinions of the masses, was unyielding and allowed everyone to come to the Jingdu Academy. However, he gathered the children of all the nobles here.

Which one of them didn't have a noble and respected position and live like a prince? If they were to suddenly go to school together with others and cause any trouble, it would be a common occurrence.

At that time, if the Jingdu Academy could not be dealt with, the conflicts between the students would have to be reported to the emperor.

The Emperor would either punish each of them, or he would punish the wrongdoer harshly.

No matter if it was a punishment or a demotion, or even taking back some of the military power, it was still beneficial to the emperor.

This was the emperor's intention to have them come to the Jingdu Academy. If not, wouldn't it be a joke to have that foolish Hereditary Prince of the Prince Yi’s Palace come to school?

An Lingge was shocked. She thought she was already very careful and was used to reading things over and over again, but she still couldn't see through the emperor's intentions. She only understood after Mu Junhan gave her a few pointers.

"Since the Emperor had long since secretly prepared Jingdu Academy to restrain these nobles, he naturally wouldn't secretly send people to poison them."

She suddenly understood, and the doubt in her heart was explained.

"Furthermore, the Crown Prince, Fourth Prince, Seventh Prince and the others have all come to the Jingdu Academy, leaving the Crown Prince's tutor behind. They have come to attend the lessons with the rest, just to take advantage of the time when the Emperor is still in power to rope in their own forces."

Although the Emperor had already appointed a crown prince, the ruthlessness of the crown prince had already aroused the displeasure of many. In addition, the Seventh Prince s of the Fourth Prince had also grown up, so it was hard to avoid some people with ambitions.

An Lingge thought for a while. Since Fang Qing was willing to drug his mother and Princess Mu, then he must be someone related to the princes. Why not find out who the person is?
