The prince disliked her, and the legitimate daughter was reborn and married to the regent

"Where did you go? Didn't I tell you not to go? Why didn't you listen?"

She asked again. In fact, Yun Nian didn't need to answer. She already knew the answer. She should have known that the things in the palace were not a secret that could be concealed.

"You guys go back first."

Yun Nian whispered to the two people behind him. Langya was a little worried. After all, Fuqiu's face did not look good. But Baiju looked indifferent and pulled him away.

Seeing their master's angry look, the palace servants around him stood quietly in the corridor and did not dare to approach.

"You know why I'm here. I just want to make sense of these strange things that are happening to me."

Her voice was very soft. Fuqiu was silent for a while before she sighed in frustration and opened her door.

"Come in, I'm just... a little excited. To be honest, I don't want you to know the disgusting things in this palace. I'm even more afraid that you will think I'm the same person."

The sound of pouring tea was heard, and Yun Nian's eyes fell on the gilded teacup.

The tea inside the wall was dark in color. If it wasn't for the pleasant aroma, I would have thought it was poison.

Fuqiu pushed the cup towards Yun Nian, then supported her chin with her hand and fell into memories.

"You saw what happened there, didn't you? They were all the old man's children, but they were ordered around like dogs. Isn't it funny?"

She smiled bitterly, with hatred flashing in her green eyes.

"The Thirteenth Lady you saw earlier just came out of there not long ago. If she wasn't lucky, she would have stayed there until she reached the age of marriage and then joined the banquet..."

At this point, Yun Nian also understood what she meant. His thin eyebrows slightly wrinkled, full of disgust.

"How could they do such a beastly thing! Don't Korro care about his own children at all?"

How could someone be so cruel to his own flesh and blood, as if he were his enemy?

Hearing such an innocent question, Fuqiu chuckled and looked at the girl in front of her with a bit of cynicism.

"Sisi, not all people have feelings, and not everyone will give everything for their children. You have also seen that there has never been any family affection in Keluo."

"Rather than saying that there is a bond between us, it is better to say that from the moment we were born, we and our parents, brothers and sisters have been on opposite sides."

"If you squeeze out your sisters, you can enjoy more food. If you kill your brothers, your chances of inheriting the throne will become greater."

Yun Nian listened quietly without interrupting.

"As for the old man, he is like a cat playing with a mouse. He watches his children fight for his favor and get hurt. But he is not happy to see anyone's power exceed the limit he has given."

"He used us to stabilize those nobles. This is our fate. If Song Yanga hadn't warned him..."

Fuqiu closed her eyes, and Yun Nian felt as if a ray of light seemed to slide across the corner of her eyes, but when he looked closely, there was nothing there. He wondered if he had seen it wrong.

"Anyway, I am not standing idly by. The chronic illness left by this kingdom cannot be changed by one person alone. I..."

"It's not your fault. You're a victim too, aren't you?"

Yun Nian interrupted her. To be honest, maybe her weakness and kindness affected her friend. Fuqiu seemed to think that she would blame her for other people's mistakes.

But in fact, every wrong has its perpetrator, and she knows this very well.

"Fuqiu, don't take our friendship so lightly. I won't blame you for other people's mistakes, just like you never blame me for them, right?"

Two equally beautiful women looked at each other, their skin color, appearance, and temperament were completely different.

But at this moment, both of them seemed to have the same persistence. Soon, Fuqiu was defeated and looked away.

"I see. I was distracted. I won't ask you where you want to go again. If there is a place that is inaccessible, you can tell me and I will find a way. However, you have to be careful not to expose yourself to danger and don't always take risks."

Hearing Fuqiu give in, Yun Nian finally breathed a sigh of relief. She didn't want to make things difficult for her friend because of her actions.

"That's great, don't worry, I know my limits, and what's more, I still have this."

She touched the black veil covering her eyes.

"With the seal of the national master and your protection, others who want to deal with me will probably have to think twice."

After finally calming Fuqiu down, Yun Nian asked Bai Ju to find out what was going on with Erqi. When he came back, it was already evening.

His face looked a little serious. It seemed that he had brought a lot of news with him.

According to his investigation, it was not the cold palace, but a place called "the enclosure". Those nobles seemed to use it as a place to keep their "pets".

"The system here is completely different from Da'an!"

Bai Ju couldn't help but complain,

After all, it was impossible for the ministers to walk freely in the Da'an Palace. There were patrolling guards everywhere, unlike Ke Luo.

"Those nobles usually only play there for a while during the day. They are not allowed to go near there at night. It is said that this is to ensure that the people inside can 'grow up quickly'."

When Bai Ju mentioned this, he didn't know what he was thinking about, and his expression was a little unnatural.

"Anyway, at night, they will probably be in the main hall. After getting drunk, they can only rest there and are not allowed to go anywhere else."

It seems that Korlo was not completely defenseless. Rather, he was too smart. He could give his subjects wine, beauties, and power, but he also closely monitored and controlled them.

"I see. That means there's no one in the 'paddock' at night, right?"

She nodded gently and made up her mind to go there again tonight to find out what was hidden in that place and let Ning Sinian remember it until his death.

This is because plans cannot keep up with changes. When Yun Nian arrived at the "enclosure", it seemed that all the children inside had been transferred to other places.

She was thinking that her investigation had been exposed and was about to ask Bai Ju, but when she turned around, there was no one behind her.
