There was a storm on the Phoenix Terrace, and at this moment, the emperor's bedroom was quiet. Suddenly, a dark shadow flashed by...

The man sneaked into the bedroom quietly, opened the mechanism behind the bookshelf, and a dusty secret room appeared in front of him!

The secret room was empty except for a painting and a box.

The man in black didn't look at the picture of the beauty, but looked at the box. Seeing that there was no one around, he stole it directly...

The box was very light and seemed to contain nothing.

He seemed to be very familiar with the terrain around the palace, and his movements were agile and ghostly.

I don’t know if it was because there was a competition set up by Phoenix Terrace today, or for some other reason, but he was able to enter the secret room unhindered, steal the book box and leave without alarming anyone.

The man in black muttered in his heart for a moment...

Is this all going too smoothly?

But he had no time to think about it. He followed the instructions and stole the bookcase. He avoided the guards' sight and entered a bedroom...

This is the Queen Mother’s residence!

……

That's fair!

These four words lingered in Emperor Yonghui's heart. Although he looked calm for a moment, countless thoughts were running through his mind.

He had always been indecisive, and became more so as he grew older.

He should have returned the throne to Lin Xun and put everything back on track when he learned that Lin Xun's poison could be cured and the prince was unable to shoulder the burden of the country.

He could become the emperor emeritus, retire to the Taiji Palace, and continue to live a leisurely life.

As for Lin Shaoyu, he was given a title of idle king and a fiefdom...

However, because of the empress dowager's seemingly casual words, Emperor Yonghui was caught in a dilemma.

In the end, everyone got what they wanted, but what about Shao Shu, the child he had been indebted to since childhood?

The country or the beauty, should he give Shaoshu a fair chance to choose?

Queen Wang and Emperor Yonghui had been married for many years. When she saw that he didn't speak, she knew that his old problem had come back, so she gave Wang Luoluo a look.

Then Wang Luoluo stepped forward with a shy look on his face.

With her delicate hands, she held two newly picked Phoenix flowers and handed them to Lin Shaoshu...

The weather was fine at the time, and the phoenix flowers were in full bloom. The girl holding a branch of flowers in the flower forest had charming eyes, and the boy was elegant and handsome. They looked like a perfect match.

Ye Jin, who was sitting in the corner, was so angry that his eyes were about to bleed. He gritted his teeth and whispered, "Bitch! You actually seduced my King Heng in front of me."

Ye Jin's face was gloomy. If it were the previous Ye Jin, he would probably have rushed up and scratched Hua Wang Luo Luo's face at this moment.

But Ye Jin at this time is no longer the Ye Jin of that time. All her backers have been uprooted by Xiao Xuetang, and she no longer has the capital to be willful.

I can only 'endure' it.

This feeling is even worse than killing her.

At this moment, she heard a "puff" sound, and someone behind her was laughing at her...

Wang Yueying glanced at Ye Jin and said sarcastically, "Concubine Jin, Wang Luoluo has the Queen's support behind him. You have no right to speak on the field now."

It was Ye Jin's suggestion last night that caused Wang Yueying to be publicly reprimanded by the Queen Mother, causing her to lose all face and dignity.

When the banquet was over, Wang Yueying slapped Ye Jin hard but still not feeling satisfied, so she was deliberately making fun of Ye Jin.

Ye Jin knew that Wang Yueying did it on purpose, but he didn't dare to say anything because she was in the wrong.

Ye Jin had previously taken refuge with Queen Wang, but then betrayed her, which made Queen Wang hate her to the core. If it weren't for the Queen Mother's support for Ye Jin, Queen Wang would have killed Ye Jin long ago.

If Ye Jin does not know what's good for him at this moment, wouldn't that be like handing the evidence to Queen Wang?

Ye Jin silently swallowed the anger, but then, looking at Wang Yueying, he sneered, "Miss Wang, let's not look down on each other. Although I, Ye Jin, am of humble status, at least I am now the concubine of Prince Heng, and you are nothing in front of the Regent, even worse than the princess of Southern Xinjiang."

Wang Yueying's face turned pale and a hint of hatred flashed in her eyes.

At this time, the maidservant beside the Queen Mother came to find Ye Jin. Seeing this, Ye Jin stood up and left. Before leaving, he glanced at the Phoenix Terrace...

In the end, Lin Shaoshu still took the phoenix flower branch from Wang Luoluo's hand!

Thus, Princess Heng's position has been determined.

It would be a lie for Ye Jin to say that he was not sad, but in just a moment, that hint of weakness was quickly wiped away from his eyes.

As long as she could get that thing done this time, she wouldn't care about Wang Luoluo at all!

When Ye Jin walked to the Queen Mother's bedroom and saw the familiar silver-white safe on the table, which should not have appeared in ancient times, Ye Jin's heart was in turmoil...

……

At noon, the scorching autumn sun was somewhat dazzling. Xiao Xuetang looked up at the sky and was dazzled.

"There's still one hour left."

Lin Xun's calm voice came to Xiao Xuetang's ears. Seeing that he was still calm and in control of the situation, Xiao Xuetang snorted.

As expected of a regent who commanded thousands of troops on the battlefield at a young age, no one present was more patient than Lin Xun.

It was obvious that the purpose of this trip to Jiufan Mountain was to select a princess for Lin Shaoshu. Now that the princess has been selected, for some reason, everyone is a little absent-minded, as if something is missing.

Is it because the Queen Mother wasn’t present?

Or maybe it was because Lin Shaoshu's reaction was too calm, and he didn't seem to care at all about who the princess was, or there was another possibility...

Everything was within his expectations.

Everyone on the Phoenix Terrace had different thoughts, but the most proud one was the Queen.

Thinking of how the Queen Mother had gone to great lengths to set up a trap in Jiufan Mountain, but in the end it benefited her, the Queen could not hide her pride in her eyes. She deliberately looked at Xiao Xuetang and said, "Xiao Xuetang, you lose."

Xiao Xuetang raised her eyebrows slightly, looked at the queen with a subtle look and said, "Queen, are you sure you really won?"

Queen Wang was originally in high spirits, thinking that Wang Luoluo and the Wang family were just dogs dependent on her. Now Lin Shaoshu was going to marry a dog who wagged his tail and fawned on her, and the queen felt extremely happy.

However, at this moment, Xiao Xuetang wanted to say these words that spoiled the mood. Queen Wang's face darkened and she said, "Xiao Xuetang, are you trying to default on your debt?"

Xiao Xuetang didn't say anything, but just smiled, and said with a meaningful smile: "Empress, you said that during this trip to Jiufan Mountain to select concubines, the prince was left alone to supervise the country. Could it be that this was the Queen Mother's plan to lure the tiger away from the mountain?"

Facing Xiao Xuetang's clear gaze, Queen Wang's heart skipped a beat for no reason. She felt a little uneasy and blurted out subconsciously, "Impossible!"

If Lin Shaojin was the only one in the palace, the queen would definitely be worried, but there were still Wang Xian and Wang Anyuan, who had recently been relocated from Taiyuan to Kyoto, to assist the prince.

It's just three days, there won't be any big trouble.

and many more……

Taiyuan Wang family!

Queen Wang looked at the shy Wang Luoluo and suddenly felt uneasy...
