Deep in the palace, Liu Prajna's expression was stern, like an ice sculpture, exuding an inviolable majesty.

She looked directly at Yi Han in front of her and said firmly, "Yi Han, there is no need to beat around the bush between you and me. We both know what we want. If you continue to shirk responsibility like this, I don't need you."

Her eyes were as sharp as a sword, as if they could see into people's hearts.

Yi Han smiled with a bit of cynicism on his face: "Your Majesty, Yi Han is stupid and really doesn't understand what you mean." His tone was relaxed, but it concealed a deep scheming.

Liu Prajna took a deep breath, and her voice revealed a bit of displeasure: "General, do you really think that there is no one in the capital who can replace you? There are many people who are better and more favored than you. I don't need you. It's up to you to be my enemy or to ally with me. But if you insist on doing this, I can only find another way."

After hearing this, Yi Han just smiled faintly and turned away.

His back seemed particularly cold in Liu Banruo's eyes.

Liu Banruo couldn't help feeling annoyed. She didn't understand why Yi Han was always so elusive.

Her mood was like the surface of a lake blown by the autumn wind, with ripples everywhere.

She didn't believe that she had misjudged him, but Yi Han's attitude made her feel disappointed.

She didn't understand why Yi Han was so resistant to cooperating with her. Didn't he believe that she had the ability to lead him to glory?

"Mu Yihan, you look down on me today, but one day, I will let you see how powerful I am."

A strong feeling of unwillingness and determination surged in Liu Banruo's heart. She returned to the house, drove out all the maids who were serving her, and sat quietly in the house alone, thinking about the future.

Just as she was lost in thought, she heard the conversation between the palace maid and a stranger outside.

She listened attentively and heard a charming voice saying, "I am here to ask to see Lady Liu. I am a lady from the Imperial Censorate."

Liu Prajna's heart was moved. A lady from the Imperial Censorate? She stood up and opened the door, only to see a girl in lake blue clothes standing outside.

The girl was none other than Xiao Yunxia. When she saw Liu Banruo coming out, she hurried forward to salute: "This must be Concubine Liu. My name is Xiao Yunxia, ​​and I have come here specially to pay my respects to Her Majesty." Her voice was charming and her manners were decent, giving people a gentle and pleasant feeling.

Xiao Yunxia and Xiao Yunxi are sisters, and Xiao Yunxia has an elder brother who serves in the imperial court.

Liu Prajna looked at her and couldn't help feeling a strange feeling in her heart.

She smiled and said to the maid, "Don't be nervous. Since she is the daughter of the Imperial Censorate, she is an honored guest. I have nothing to do today, so please invite her in and have a seat."

Xiao Yunxia was overjoyed after hearing this, and hurriedly thanked him, then followed Liu Banruo into the house.

Seeing that Liu Prajna was so approachable, she felt a bit of respect for him.

She knew that Concubine Liu, who was about to enter the palace, was by no means an ordinary woman.

Inside the house, Xiao Yunxia told Liu Banruo the purpose of her visit in detail.

It turned out that she came here with Xiao Yunxi's aunt. She wanted to meet Zhao Songyan, but Zhao Songyan was not at home, so she wanted to try her luck and come to meet Liu Banruo.

Xiao Yunxia said to Liu Banruo flatteringly: "Your Majesty's beauty is unparalleled in the world. I am so lucky to be able to see you today."

Liu Banruo smiled and responded: "No need to be polite, please sit down. You are Yun Xi's sister, right?"
