Spring in the East Palace

Shen Muyin just listened and laughed lightly.

It's just missing a step.

It seems that it is becoming easier and easier to control the East Palace.

At least in such a fight, the ones who finally gave in were actually the Eastern Palace.

If it were in the past, the Eastern Palace would never give in.

Thinking about it, Shen Muyin smiled and nodded: "I know, thank you aunt for reminding me."

Magu finally breathed a sigh of relief, and then she suddenly seemed to have thought of something, and said casually: "When I woke up this morning, I unexpectedly saw your Highness's cloak in the bedroom. It was not there yesterday. I thought that your Highness must have returned yesterday."

This was said for Shen Muyin to hear.

The man who was angry with Shen Muyin finally came back. He was reluctant to leave, but he couldn't bow his head, so he could only use this sneaky way.

"Oh——" Shen Muyin nodded.

Magu understood what was said.

So Magu stopped talking and looked at Shen Muyin with a smile on her face. Shen Muyin bent down and got on the carriage.

The curtain of the carriage was lowered, and it slowly moved towards the direction of the Shen Mansion.

Inside the carriage, Shen Muyin was very quiet.

The wound on her back was almost healed, and she felt much more at peace during the days she was away from the Shen Mansion.

Not being in the Shen Mansion does not mean that Shen Muyin is completely unaware of what happened in the Shen Mansion. Dong Jin will report everything in detail.

The people in the Shen Mansion were not sure whether they were used to it or for some other reason, but everything was calm and peaceful.

To Shen Muyin, this kind of calm was like the calm before the storm.

Shen Muyin was quiet and didn't say anything.

The carriage slowly moved down the mountain. At the entrance, Shen Muyin saw Lu Nanhuai.

Lu Nanhuai remained calm and did not avoid the situation. Shen Muyin was silent for a moment and said, "Stop the car."

The driver stopped the car immediately, Shen Muyin got out and walked towards Lu Nanhuai.

Soon, she stood in front of Lu Nanhuai and asked, "Does Lord Lu have any news?"

If there was no news, Lu Nanhuai would not need to intercept his carriage here.

"If you let people hang human heads on the city gate, it will cause unnecessary trouble." Lu Nanhuai said lightly.

"Your Highness definitely didn't ask you to tell me this. This is what you meant." Shen Muyin smiled, "But do we have a way out? No. He has been in the dark, and even Lord Lu has no idea where to start. This is enough to prove his caution. So although this method is risky, it is the most direct one."

After the words fell, Shen Muyin only paused for a moment: "When a dog is desperate, it will reveal its true colors. He is in the dark, and he has the upper hand. We are in the light, and we are very passive. If we directly confront him, he will have no way to deal with us."

Tearing off the face is equivalent to telling this person that they know exactly who he is and what he is going to do.

This will force this person to speed up, and he will naturally be exposed.

"You are a very capable person." Lu Nanhuai nodded in appreciation.

He suddenly understood why Qin Chuyan fell in love with Shen Muyin.

Not only is she beautiful, but most importantly, she has brains.

Qin Chuyan has no shortage of women, but he lacks a virtuous wife. In this way, if Qin Chuyan is not around, the Eastern Palace and the State of Yan will be stable.

Any normal person would like Shen Muyin.

It is understandable that Donggong is tempted.

"Master Lu, you are too kind." Shen Muyin nodded, and then she said directly, "Master Lu, don't you have any clues?"

Lu Nanhuai knew what Shen Muyin was asking, so he was not in a hurry. He stood with his hands behind his back, silent for a moment before speaking: "If I can't find a reason, I can't enter Prince Xuan's Mansion, and naturally I can't check it."

"Lie." Shen Muyin said bluntly.

Does Lu Nanhuai need any reason to enter Prince Xuan's mansion? No, he was also raised by Prince Xuan since he was a child.

However, Lu Nanhuai avoided entering Prince Xuan's palace.

Shen Muyin's words calmed Lu Nanhuai down for a moment, but he remained calm on the surface.

"Lord Lu cares about Princess Xuanhe, right?" Shen Muyin looked at Lu Nanhuai without changing his expression.

Lu Nanhuai didn't say anything and remained very quiet.

Shen Muyin smiled and nodded: "Then Lord Lu, aren't you afraid that something might happen to Princess Xuanhe? After all, it's not just us who are desperate now, but also him."

Sure enough, after hearing these words, Lu Nanhuai's expression changed.

"If something happens to Princess Xuanhe, Lord Lu will definitely not let it go. What's more, I think what Lord Lu is most worried about now is that if my guess is correct, Princess Xuanhe can't bear it, right?" Shen Muyin continued to ask.

Shen Muyin is very good at manipulating people's hearts.

Even though she couldn't read minds, she could easily see what everyone was thinking.

Shen Muyin could see clearly what Lu Nanhuai was thinking.

"Lord Lu knew that this was dangerous, but he still put Princess Xuanhe in this position. Aren't you afraid that you will regret it one day?" Shen Muyin asked back.

"I can enter Prince Xuan's Mansion, but I shouldn't find anything unusual inside." Lu Nanhuai finally relaxed. "If it's really him, then Su Jin is safe now. Because something happened to the Prime Minister, and according to my understanding of the Emperor, the position of Prime Minister will only be held by someone who is trustworthy."

Having said this, Lu Nanhuai fell silent for a moment.

Shen Muyin understood.

This trustworthy person is Nangong Sheng.

Even though Nangong Sheng has been extremely low-key in recent years and has never held an important position in the court, it is because he does not want to cause trouble.

But if Nangong Sheng marries Princess Xuanhe, he will be a true prince consort. In time, the position of prime minister will surely be in Nangong Sheng's hands.

It is reasonable. After all, he has the support of Prince Xuan's Mansion, and Nangong Sheng is very capable, but he is low-key.

The current emperor also has a good impression of Nangong Sheng.

Thinking of this, the person who changed his face was Shen Muyin, and many things suddenly connected together.

If it is really Nangong Sheng, the position of prime minister is still in Nangong Sheng's hands, and Donggong leads the troops to war, then Kyoto will be controlled.

The result can be imagined.

"He can't get to the position." Shen Muyin said directly.

Lu Nanhuai was very quiet: "It's too difficult to reverse this situation. His image is deeply rooted. Just like me now, it's hard for me to think about all this. This includes Your Highness, it's the same."

Lu Nanhuai paused for a moment and said, "So does Miss Shen know something? If so, please tell me so that people can be prepared. Otherwise, I have no idea based on guesswork."

He spoke in a very serious tone, and even when he looked at Shen Muyin, there was no trace of joking. He just stood there quietly.

Shen Muyin was quiet for a moment, and when she looked at Lu Nanhuai again, she seemed calm.

"Don't be impatient. This assassin is the descendant of a general from the previous dynasty. He must be very important in that person's heart. This is undoubtedly equivalent to cutting off his left and right arms." Shen Muyin was very calm. "His head is hanging on the city gate. He can't hold it for too long. As long as he is someone you and I suspect, it's only a matter of time before he reveals his true colors."

Shen Muyin said word by word: "So, wait and see."
