"Three days later? Why are you in such a hurry? " A woman's voice sounded from the garden.

The man's voice was strict, "Three days from now, it will be the crown prince's seventh taboo. Murong Yu will definitely enter the palace, so the opportunity from that day will be the best. The two of you must prepare yourselves and cooperate fully.

"Really?" The other woman sounded pleasantly surprised.

"I'll keep my word, but you have to do as I say. If anything goes wrong, none of us will get away from it!"

"I understand. How do you plan on dealing with Yunsheng Yue? With her big belly, it won't be convenient for her to leave the city. The King will definitely send his men to track her down. When that happens …"

You don't need to worry about that, as long as you cooperate with me in catching the person, there's nothing bad about having a big stomach. As long as she's in my hands, Murong Yu wouldn't dare to act recklessly. The man sneered.

"Alright, we know what to do. We'll be leaving first. Be careful!"

"En, you guys be more shrewd, don't expose me."

"Yes!"

She was dressed in a light blue orchid dress with a hundred wrinkles around her waist. Her figure was slender and her features were ordinary, and a bright light flashed in her eyes, but it was actually Ruo Lan. She didn't look as lifeless as she usually did; instead, she raised her hand and picked up a pure white fragrance, and after looking at it thoughtfully for a while, tossed it to the ground.

Her eyes seemed to have recovered, but for some reason, she didn't tell anyone about the conversation between Mu Rong Hai, Chen Jue`er, and Hong Liu. She stood by the side of the tree and thought for a while, then turned around and groped her way back to her room.

"Yun'er, follow your big brother. The crown prince is already gone, what are you still doing staying in the palace with your life on the line?" Lu Shixun had entered the palace through the main entrance without any hesitation. Naturally, he had entered in the name of the palace to visit his relatives. It was unknown whether he had not left Jincheng all this time or had hurried over after hearing the news.

Bei Heng was still on good terms with Nanke. Although the crown prince was no longer present, he was still very polite to the third prince. It was just that his expression was not too good, the crown prince's death was completely beyond his expectations. Although the crown prince did not intend to cooperate with him, everyone knew that Lu Shiyun had married him. With his sudden death, his only sister became a widow just like that. How pitiful.

It was unknown what she was thinking, but in the past month or so, she had not been able to clear her mind. What she did not expect was that the reason she could live so peacefully in the palace, and even with some expectations, was actually for the sake of Mu Rong Qing, that immortal-like man. When she first met him at the entrance of the inn, her radiant smile was imprinted into her heart.

Although the two of them did not truly get married, Mu Rong Qing had been gentle, polite, and considerate during the past few days, so she had quietly opened her heart a bit. This kind of delicate and gentle man was something that Lu Shiyun had never seen before, and although Lu Shixun also loved her, he had always been a little careless in his little ways. He had never put in effort to understand what a woman wanted him to do, unlike Mu Rong Qing, who did not need to say anything in front of him to understand what she was thinking.

It was because of Mu Rong Qing that she was willing to stay by his side, even if there was some doubt as to why Mu Rong Qing did not have any closer relationship with her. However, that was not the most important thing.

He actually died just like that, just like that, just like that, right in front of her face. Before he died, he even told her that he had to live his life, so why didn't her carriage arrive at the alley earlier? If she arrived earlier, she could probably save him.

Yun'er! You... Are you in love with him? " Lu Shixun wasn't stupid. Although his little sister had suffered a lot, she had always been calm and indifferent. She had never been this depressed before.

Hearing this, Lu Shiyun looked up with a lost expression and muttered, "If only our carriage had been faster that day, we could have gotten there earlier. Perhaps we could have saved him …"

"Princess, the dead cannot be revived. The crown prince is dying …" He also said that you should not stay in the palace and think of a way to leave. Now that the Third Prince is here, you should quickly make a decision! " The Crown Prince was the person she admired the most.

Lu Shixun followed, "Yun'er, no matter what, you have to leave the palace. Since there's a change in the Southern Champion Kingdom, I have to rush back immediately. After I've left for a while, I won't be able to help you."

"Royal brother, you should go back first to settle some important matters. The crown prince just left not long ago, I …" For the time being, I do not wish to leave the palace. " Lu Shiyun thought for a moment before speaking softly.

"Princess!" Iling cried out in surprise, seemingly not in favor of it.

"Yun'er, I can understand your feelings. If I don't force you, it would be more eye-catching if I were to leave the palace now, but you have to protect yourself for a period of time, once Bei Heng establishes the new crown prince, you won't have any status in the palace anymore. Although due to the relationship between the two countries, no one would dare to hurt her in broad daylight, but hidden arrows are still impossible to defend against."

"I know, I'll be careful." Lu Shiyun's voice was low and low. She did not seem to be in the mood at all. Her mood had fluctuated tremendously these days, and she had not been able to rest well.

Lu Shixun sighed and stood up, "Brother has to rush back to the Southern Champion Kingdom. Your future is uncertain, and I won't be able to take care of you for the time being. You have to be extra careful, or else I'll come pick you up after I settle my issues. You have to keep in touch with me, okay?"

"Yeah, bro, you have to take care of yourself too!"

Lu Shixun nodded, bid his farewells and signaled for Yi Ling to follow.

You and Ina must protect the princess well and contact me at any time. If the situation is urgent and you don't have time to wait for my reply, you can decide for yourself. If necessary, you can forcefully bring the princess out of the palace!

"Yes, this servant also thinks the same."

Yes, with you here, this prince is very at ease. Yun'er looks very unhappy, and you have to give her more advice. If you leave the palace, you have to walk towards the southeast, but don't be in a rush to return to the Southern Champion City. First, find an inconspicuous place to settle down.

"This servant understands!"

After giving a few more instructions, Lu Shixun felt that he had said all that needed to be said. He looked around the room but did not enter. After passing something to Yi Ling, he turned around and left.

The liveliness in the Jadeite Temple continued as the masters of various sizes from the imperial harem came in and out like a string of lanterns. The pregnancy of Baili Xiu was not just a joyous event for her alone, it was also a joyous event for the entire imperial palace. The emperor was also very happy.

The heavy and depressing atmosphere in the palace finally started to shine a little. However, this time, Qian Yulian and Murong Ming were still low-key, and they also forced the servants in the palace to control their own mouths and actions, so they couldn't let others think that they were lacklustre because of this. During such a sensitive time, they absolutely could not let others know that they were in trouble, and Murong Ming continued to act like a good student in the morning assembly, only paying attention to the great scheme of the commoners.

However, the matter of Baili Xiu's pregnancy was extremely important. It had only been two months, and she was already being closely attended to by four palace maids and four mama. She walked around every step of the way as if she was afraid that something might happen, which made Zhong Hanxue envious and jealous.

Every day, Mu Rong Zhen would also accompany Baili Xiu to talk. This was something Qian Yulian had instructed him to do over and over again. Normally, he would sit for a while to talk about something important and considerate before returning to his study to take care of official matters. He didn't go to Hundred Miles City or Zhong Hanxue's room to sleep at night, making her feel depressed.

"What did you say?" Is this news true? " In the study room, Mu Rong Ming heard the guard's report and immediately stood up in excitement.

The guard nodded. "There shouldn't be any mistake. It's reliable news from the Mansion of the Duke of Qin. The time to strike is the day after tomorrow."

"The next day, the Prince's seven sacrifices. The Duke of Qin will definitely enter the palace. What is the background of that Lin guy? How dare he act so brazenly?" In the past, Lin Yi Hai had also taken the initiative to look for him. Seeing that he was willing to help him deal with Murong Yu and bring him useful information from time to time, Lin Yi Hai had cooperated with him. He still had some doubts.

"This subordinate has yet to find out. It is still an identity that he found out before. I only know that he is related to the Spirit Eagle Palace. As for his enmity with the Duke of Qin, I'm not sure!"

"Send someone to keep an eye on him, check again!" Although Lin Yi Hai's current actions and actions were beneficial to him, this kind of person who dared to go against the Royal King was not someone to be looked down upon. Moreover, he had set his sights on Yue'er, which made him extremely angry, and those with the surname 'Lin' understood his feelings for Yue'er.

What should he do? Tell Murong Yu? No! He should have personally gone to save Yue Er. Perhaps he could use this opportunity to win her heart back. If Murong Yu had gone, it wouldn't have been his turn.

However, he had to attend the party for the crown prince's seventh taboo, right? What kind of excuse would he use to leave the palace? This was a troublesome matter, and Murong Ming started to have a headache …
