After coming out of the palace, Yan Muyun saw that it was still early, so she asked the coachman to change the route to Prince Rong's Mansion.

Yan Muxi was doing needlework with Princess Rong in Zhuxiang Hall. When she learned that Yan Muyun had come to the palace without any warning, she thought that she was in trouble and hurriedly got up to go out to greet her.

After waiting for a while at the gate, she saw Yan Muyun approaching with a maid. When she got closer, she asked anxiously, "Why did the third sister suddenly come to the palace?"

"I came out of the palace and stopped by to see my second sister."

Seeing that Yan Mujun's expression and tone were still normal, Yan Muxi felt relieved, "The third sister is not close to you."

Prince Rong's Mansion is in the north of the Imperial Palace, while Marquis Dingbei's Mansion is located in the southwest of the Imperial Palace. How can it be convenient to go to the north and south?

Yan Mujun glanced at Yan Muxi unhappily, "You don't even give me face. Can't I come and see you if it's not my turn?"

"Yes, Third Sister can come to see me. I wish Third Sister would come to the palace to play with me every day!"

The two sisters walked into the yard while talking. Princess Rong stood at the door and looked at the two sisters with a smile.

"If I hadn't compared them, I wouldn't have noticed that Xixi had grown taller. When I first saw you two sisters, Xixi was shorter than your younger sister, but now she's actually taller than your younger sister!"

Upon hearing that she was taller than Yan Mujun, Yan Muxi was instantly delighted, "My head will surely grow longer, who knows, I might even be taller than my elder sister in the end!"

Yan Muyun resisted the urge to roll her eyes and knelt down to greet Princess Rong. After she stood up, she threw cold water on Yan Muxi in a bad mood, "Second sister, you are almost twenty years old. Why are you still growing? You can't grow any more."

It was not enough for the second brother to be taller than her, he even wanted to be taller than Yan Muqing who was as tall as a model.

Although she had never measured her height since traveling back to ancient times, Yan Muyun estimated that she was at least 1.6 meters tall. Yan Muqing's figure was similar to that of the tall Su, so her height was estimated to be around 1.7 meters.

A woman who is 1.7 meters tall is considered tall even in modern times, not to mention in ancient times when people were generally short. Among all the noble ladies in Luodu City, only Gu Yuelan can compare with Yan Muqing in height, and it is difficult to find a third noble lady as tall as her.

Yan Muxi grumbled unconvinced, "I'm only eighteen, and I still have two years to go before I'm twenty. Besides, I'm small, so I can definitely grow taller. Even if I don't, it doesn't matter, I'll be taller than Third Sister anyway."

Yan Muyun: ...

The second child knows how to insult people.

"I'm only seventeen, so I can still grow taller. It's hard to tell who will be taller until the end!"

"Humph! I'm the older sister, so I must be taller."

Watching the two sisters bickering, Princess Rong laughed until her teeth showed and her eyes could not see. "You sisters finally got together, I won't stand here and get in the way. I'm going to the lake to find the prince and the prince, you sisters can have a good chat!"

Watching Princess Rong walk away, Yan Muyun sighed, "I'm afraid it's hard to find a better mother-in-law than Princess Rong in the entire Luodu City."

"Of course. Not to mention in Luodu, there is no better mother-in-law than my mother in Dafeng." Yan Muxi said in a proud tone, with an appearance of honor.

Yan Mujun couldn't help it any longer and rolled her eyes to the sky, "Showing off again!" She wanted to say, it's just a mother-in-law, as if she doesn't exist, but her mother-in-law might as well not exist!

"My mother-in-law is just great. Why shouldn't I show off? I just have to show off." Yan Muxi also rolled her eyes like her.

Yan Muyun gritted her teeth. She had never realized before that the second brother's personality was so annoying. If he hadn't been born with a handsome face, he would have been beaten a lot since he was a child.

Yan Muyun was so angry that she didn't remember the business until she entered the house. "The prince suddenly fell ill yesterday, and his condition is quite serious."

Yan Muxi put away her smile upon hearing this and told the maid who was pouring tea, "Stop working and get out!"

Seeing that the two sisters had something to talk about, Yinxia also left the room and stood outside the door to guard them.

Yan Muyun told Yan Muxi in detail what happened in the Eastern Palace.

Yan Muxi was silent for a long time before she asked, "Third sister, can you confirm that the prince has other poisons besides the love poison?"

"I'm not sure, it's just a guess. What I can be sure of is that a love Gu has been put into the prince's body, and the female Gu is still alive." Yan Muyun said truthfully.

Yan Muxi asked again, "What would happen if the person infected with the female Gu and the person infected with the male Gu could not meet each other?"

"They will feel anxious and restless, and feel uncomfortable all over as if they were possessed by an evil spirit. However, the severity of these symptoms is related to the witch doctor's ability to control the poison. If the witch doctor's control skills are average, the person who is poisoned will only feel mild discomfort. If the witch doctor's control skills are strong, it is enough to destroy a normal person's mind."

After listening to Yan Muyun's explanation, Yan Muxi fell silent again.

Judging from the prince's current condition, the witch doctor's witchcraft skills cannot be of ordinary level. As for how powerful they are, it is difficult to judge.

The actor was murdered, and if she was not mistaken, it was Yan Muqing who did it.

But now, not only did the actor survive, but the prince was also implicated, which meant that Yan Mucheng had made a wrong move again.

Putting aside whether it was wise for Yan Muqing to rashly kill someone, everything that happened was related to witchcraft, and witchcraft was inseparable from Yan Yongchen.

Considering what Grandpa said before, Yan Yongchen is playing a big game of chess, and everyone around him is a chess piece on his chessboard.

Yan Muqing is a chess piece, and Xiziding is also one of the chess pieces.

In Yan Muqing's dream, the actress became the eldest prince's woman, and now, the actress is involved with the crown prince.

If her speculation is correct, from the perspective of the chess player, Yan Yongchen changed the position of the actor chess piece, most likely because the chess piece previously placed by the East Palace was useless, so Yan Yongchen chose to borrow chess pieces from other places to make up for it.

Yan Mucheng should be the chess piece that Yan Yongchen had placed before. Yan Yongchen must have realized that the chess piece was no longer under his control, so he chose to abandon Yan Mucheng and place the chess pieces again.

From Yan Muqing's perspective, being abandoned is not necessarily a bad thing, because no matter what happens in the future, you have jumped off the chessboard now. Sometimes it is safe to be abandoned.

After seeing Yan Mujun off, Yan Muxi did not delay and quickly sent a letter to the Eastern Palace to tell Yan Muqing his thoughts.

There is more than one chess piece, and if the person behind the scenes fails to achieve his goal, he will definitely replace it with a new one.

It is better to keep the chess pieces whose background you know by your side, and watch the opponents who cannot be eliminated in the open, which is much better than keeping them in the dark.

The most urgent task is to nurture the baby in the womb and give birth safely, and then slowly plan for the future.

After receiving the message, Yan Muqing thought in silence for a long time.

When she figured it out, she stood up and called Lan Shuang, "Let's go to the front hall and take a look at the palace."

When the master and servant arrived at the front hall, Yu Jintang was just getting up from the bed. Yan Muqing took two quick steps to support him, "Your Highness is not fully recovered yet, so it is not appropriate for you to walk around."

"I have nothing to do. I have been lying down all day. My spine is hurting. I want to get up and walk around."

Seeing that Yu Jintang looked fine except for his slightly pale face, Yan Muqing no longer insisted on not letting him get off the bed, "Then I will help Your Highness walk slowly for a while."

"I'm not that delicate that I need someone to support me before I can walk." Yu Jintang said this, but he took Yan Muqing's hand.

The two of them held hands and slowly paced in circles in the hall. Yu Jintang's limbs were weak and he could not walk fast, like an old man who was staggering.

"Haha~" Yu Jintang suddenly laughed.

Yan Muqing asked in confusion, "What are you laughing at, Your Highness?"
