Wang Zhigang and his family arrived in the capital. After hearing the news, Lin Yao decided to meet with them, but the problem was how to leave the palace without arousing suspicion. After the surprise, Lin Yao, feeling guilty, went to the palace where Xiao Qi was, carrying a bowl of bird's nest.

The Qianqing Palace was recently renovated, so Xiao Qi moved to Chengde Hall. As an emperor, he still had several concubines in the harem. Considering the current situation of the previous dynasty, he could not live in one place for a long time as he pleased.

When Lin Yao arrived, Xiao Qi was angry.

Prince Liang, who was far away in Jinzhou, found a reason to interfere in the affairs of the Military Education Department but failed. Later, he changed the issue to the flood in the south of the Yangtze River and took the opportunity to ask for the vacant position of inspector and give it to his followers.

Unfortunately, the reasons given by King Liang were legitimate, and the person he chose really met the requirements. Xiao Qi couldn't just condemn him with one blow. It was not appropriate for him to turn against King Liang yet. But now he had to give up the real power in his hands to him, and he felt very aggrieved.

Lin Yao was frightened by Xiao Qi's anger. Xiao Qi probably didn't see her just now, otherwise he wouldn't have thrown the teacup at her.

Looking at the shattered teacup at her feet, Lin Yao felt uneasy for a moment, but then she composed herself and walked slowly to Xiao Qi's side.

"My beloved concubine is here?" Xiao Qi suppressed his anger.

But he couldn't help rolling his eyes in his heart. Wasn't he fierce when he threw the teacup just now? Why wasn't Lin Yao afraid and continued to approach him?

"Your Majesty~" Lin Yao's voice was tender, and Xiao Qi got goose bumps. Seeing this, Lin Yao was concerned, "Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?"

Xiao Qi's eyebrows jumped violently, but he regained his expression and looked at Lin Yao tenderly: "Why did you come here suddenly? It's windy here, my beloved concubine, you should go back and rest more."

Lin Yao was deeply moved when she heard Xiao Qi's concern. Look at the king of a country, he cared about her so much that he didn't even want her to feel such a small breeze.

He must have loved her terribly. The smile in Lin Yao's eyes became even brighter. "Your Majesty, I came here this time to pray for blessings. Although Daliang is enjoying good weather and peace, it is all due to your Majesty's rule. Your Majesty is tired. I want to pray for your Majesty. I wish the world peace and your Majesty good health."

Xiao Qi's mouth twitched slightly, but his face was full of emotion. Lin Yao continued, "Also, my nanny recently sent a letter to the palace, saying that she wanted to see me."

"My beloved concubine's wet nurse?"

"Yes, Your Majesty, my wet nurse has come from afar, and I want to go out and meet her." Lin Yao said coquettishly.

Xiao Qi narrowed his eyes and looked at Lin Yao, his doubts growing. Lin Yao's wet nurse? He had never heard of this person before. Moreover, Lin Yao had been in the palace for almost a year, so how could her wet nurse suddenly appear in the capital?

I think there must be something fishy going on. It seems that the wet nurse has heard the news that Lin Yao has become a royal concubine. The people who came may be old subordinates of the Yue Kingdom.

But he did not show any abnormality, just smiled gently: "My beloved concubine's wet nurse must be a capable person, otherwise she would not be able to raise such an outstanding daughter like you."

"Haha!" Lin Yao was delighted.

"Since my beloved concubine wants to see her, then go ahead. Just be careful on the way to pray. Bring more people with you."

Lin Yao was overjoyed and bowed quickly: "Thank you, Your Majesty. I will be careful."

Xiao Qi nodded and watched Lin Yao leave with deep affection.

When her figure disappeared from his sight, he restrained his smile and a hint of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes.

Did he finally lose his temper? Did he contact King Liang?

Or is it a school of its own?

He gave orders to have someone continue investigating Lin Yao's wet nurse.

A few days later, Lin Yao quietly left the palace with several palace maids and guards in the name of praying for blessings. She did not go directly to the residence of Wang Zhigang's parents with a big fanfare, but first went to a hidden teahouse and met a mysterious man, but when the Dragon Guards were tracking that person, he disappeared into the street.

After investigation, Xiao Qi also learned a lot of secrets. In addition to wanting to restore the country in the palace, Lin Yao was not honest and was in contact with her previous man. The rewards she received in the palace were limited and could not be sold for money. She needed to do various things in the palace, and the amount of money required was huge. I don't know how Lin Yao got in touch with her previous man, and now someone is secretly sending money to Lin Yao.

However, haha, if she wants to restore her country, or do some small moves under their noses, it depends on whether she has the strength to do so. Now there is no need to discard this chess piece, so Xiao Qi plans to remain unchanged in the face of all changes.

In the teahouse box, the mysterious person lifted the veil on his head and it turned out to be Luo Cheng, the steward of Prince Liang's Mansion. Lin Yao's face turned very ugly. She never thought that the person who came here was not the wet nurse, but Luo Cheng, the steward of Prince Liang's Mansion.

"What's the matter, Butler Luo?"

Lin Yao is now a favorite concubine, so Luo Cheng has to bow even when he sees her. However, the latter does not have that awareness. Instead, he looks very aloof, and it is clear that he does not take her seriously, which makes her look a little ugly.

"My master sees that you have made no progress in the palace. I wonder if Miss Lin has any difficulties? Are you stumped?"

Luo Cheng seemed to be asking questions, but in fact he was questioning Lin Yao's ability to do things. Lin Yao's expression became even more flustered, and she was less interested in seeing her wet nurse.

Without waiting for Lin Yao to speak, Luo Cheng's smile deepened: "However, the master has always had a very short patience. If Miss Lin doesn't speed up, I think the lady knows the prince's methods."

Lin Yao shuddered as she thought about the ways King Liang had tortured her in the past.

After Luo Cheng finished speaking, he pulled up the black scarf of his cloak and left the box. Lin Yao looked at Luo Cheng's back, with a flash of murderous intent in her eyes.

There was silence in the box for a long time. The wet nurse Wang Hui and her family outside the door did not hear any movement inside and did not dare to act rashly, but Wang Hui could not wait any longer. She took a deep breath and carefully pushed the door open.
