After a while, Yu Menghua finally dug out some clues from the depths of his memory!

In the previous life, the Kingdom of Southern Chu did not come to the Dog Emperor’s birthday party, and the things that happened at the palace banquet did not happen.

But the envoy from Donglin Kingdom happened to arrive in Fengdu City on the day of the palace banquet!

Moreover, when they passed by Jiangyan City in the south, the fifth prince and the second princess of Donglin Kingdom fell ill. It was not until they arrived in Fengdu City that their conditions improved.

No one knew what the people from Donglin Kingdom were thinking. They arrived in Fengdu City and couldn't even wait for the dog emperor's birthday. They refused the imperial physician's treatment, ignored the illness of the fifth prince and the second princess, left the gifts and hurried back to Donglin Kingdom.

After they left, the epidemic in the south broke out completely on the emperor's birthday!

It was only later that the epidemic could no longer be controlled, and the ministers of several major cities in the south had to report it to the emperor, only then did they know the true time of the outbreak...

The more Yu Menghua thought about it, the more he felt that this matter was very strange. It was time for Donglin Kingdom to become a welcoming banquet for Nanchu Kingdom.

Could the epidemic in the south have anything to do with the Southern Chu State?

In his previous life, there was no rumor that the Second Prince's bloodline was impure. In his previous life, he got a prescription from somewhere and volunteered to go to the south to help the Emperor solve his problems.

Yu Menghua suddenly remembered that Mo Yin had seen Senior Sister Qingli, a hermit medical practitioner, in the Second Prince's mansion. It seemed that the prescription in Feng Yuxuan's hand in his previous life must have been given by her.

Things are getting more and more difficult...

Master Sanwu of Nanchu must have his own informants in Fengdu City, and only after he got the news did the incident of the Nanchu envoy come about.

However, I don’t know what the relationship is between Donglin Kingdom and Nanchu Kingdom.

The epidemic in the previous life was most likely caused intentionally by someone!

Yu Menghua's eyes turned slightly cold. If it was as she guessed, the person who poisoned the food deserved to die!

In her previous life, she remembered that all the people in a city died of an epidemic. Later, in order to prevent the epidemic from spreading, Feng Yuxuan ordered the city to be burned down!

Yu Menghua felt a chill running down her spine. If all this was just designed to build momentum for Feng Yuxuan, then those people who died in vain...

Yu Menghua suddenly felt a chill. These people were so cruel!

That’s the lives of hundreds of thousands of people!

Just as Yu Menghua was shaking with anger as she thought about the truth about the tragic deaths of hundreds of thousands of people in her previous life, a noise near the window brought her back to her senses.

"Hua'er?"

Mo Yin had been guarding in the dark. When he heard the noise, he immediately came to Yu Menghua's side and became alert. Mo Zhu and the others in the outer room had not gone to bed yet, so they quickly came in to protect Yu Menghua.

Yu Menghua: “…”

"Go back, it's the Fourth Prince." Yu Menghua said helplessly to a few people, then quickly walked to the window and opened it.

Feng Chengyin jumped into the room through the window and was stunned when he saw four big lights in the house.

When I jumped out of the window before, there wasn't such a big welcoming ceremony...

Because Mo Xiang and the others often saw the Fourth Prince Feng Chengyin and their young lady interacting with each other, they gradually became bolder in front of the Fourth Prince.

When Mo Xiang saw that the person coming was the Fourth Prince, although she felt relieved, she still dared to complain in a low voice, "Do you want to save our young lady's reputation?"

Ying Zhou, who followed his master over the wall into the Grand Tutor's Mansion and was now thrown out of the window by his master, said: "..."

I hope this kind of good thing won't happen to me next time. Well, it seems that Yingluo prefers to do this kind of thing with his master.

Mo Zhu and his companions tactfully withdrew, leaving only Yu Menghua and Feng Chengyin in the room.

Feng Chengyin saw the little girl holding a pair of small scissors in her hand. She leaned slightly and cut the candle wick a little. The whole room became brighter because of the sudden strong candlelight.

For some reason, Feng Chengyin was thinking about his wedding night...

Yu Menghua put down the scissors, sat on a chair beside her and poured herself a cup of tea. She found that the tea was a little cold and slightly frowned her pretty eyebrows.

When I looked up, I found that Feng Chengyin was lost in thought, and his handsome face, which looked like a blessing from a god, was completely flushed.

Yu Menghua coughed lightly with a strange look on his face, trying to bring him back to his senses, "Cough!"

This cough indeed brought Feng Chengyin back to his senses from his fantasy. Feng Chengyin glanced at Yu Menghua guiltily, and his ears turned even redder.

Yu Menghua: “???”

"You came here so late, is it because of what happened at the palace banquet in broad daylight?" Yu Menghua had to speak first.

Feng Chengyin straightened his expression, walked over to Yu Menghua and sat down, "Yeah."

"It seems that Father is determined to protect Cai Er. However, this is a bit strange..."

Feng Chengyin really couldn't understand what the Northern Phoenix Emperor was thinking. Based on his understanding of the Northern Phoenix Emperor, not to mention that the royal family attached great importance to bloodline, just based on the Northern Phoenix Emperor's suspicious and petty character, if any of his offspring had a different background, he would rather kill the wrong person than let him go!

Not to mention what happened at the palace banquet in broad daylight. Any discerning person could guess most of it. Feng Chengyin would never believe that his father couldn't understand it.

My father acted too strangely today.

Yu Menghua also frowned tightly. When the two of them decided to let Chu Zhixu, the third prince of Nanchu, get involved in this mess, they had thought of all the consequences, but they did not expect that the Northern Phoenix Emperor would have such an attitude.

"Grandfather and father said that the emperor is playing a big game!" Yu Menghua told Feng Chengyin about the family's conversation and plans in the study.

Then he asked casually, "I heard that the envoys from Donglin Kingdom are almost arriving in Fengdu City?"

Feng Chengyin did not notice the strangeness in Yu Menghua's words. He nodded and replied, "Yes. They should have arrived yesterday, but the second princess of the fifth prince of Donglin Kingdom fell ill on the way, so..."

Yu Menghua was shocked. It seemed that the epidemic in the south in the previous life must have been closely related to the Donglin Kingdom!

"Where did you get sick? Have you seen anyone? Is it serious?" Yu Menghua asked repeatedly, suppressing the anxiety in his eyes.

Although Feng Chengyin was surprised why Hua'er was so curious about the illness of the Donglin Kingdom's envoy, he still patiently replied:

"This disease is a bit strange. When the spy reported back, I secretly asked someone to pretend to be a doctor and go to see him. Among the people from Donglin Kingdom, only the fifth prince and the second princess were the most seriously ill. If my people hadn't dared to use strong medicine, I'm afraid they would have died while resting in Lancheng!"

At this point, Feng Chengyin's face was not looking good. "If something happens to the Donglin envoy in Beifeng, Donglin will definitely not let it go. I'm afraid they will use this as an excuse to send troops to Beifeng..."

"What's more, among the envoys is the most favored fifth prince of Donglin Kingdom!"
