Apart from the Daqing matter, Jin Yujue asked Jin Yan a few questions about governing the country. Jin Yan answered fluently and his tricks were extremely insidious, but they were very effective and quick solutions. However, Du Beizhe felt that they were very... immoral.

She also contributed a lot of business policies and opened up many new ideas for Jin Yujue.

They chatted like this from day to night, until Jin Yan looked exhausted. Jin Yujue let her go and, led by the maid, took the two of them away from the palace. Zong Zhengye also received the news and went to greet them at the palace gate in advance.

The maid bowed to Zong Zhengye and said, "Young Master Zong Zheng, His Majesty was so happy chatting with the two of you that he accidentally forgot the time and kept you waiting for a long time."

Zong Zhengye responded, "Nothing, I hope you come back safely. Thank you for your help, aunt."

"Sister!" After picking up the two of them, they were about to get on the carriage, but unexpectedly Jin Xi ran out and directly picked up Jin Yan who had not yet got on the carriage.

Jin Yan squatted down and looked at Jin Xi, "Why are you here?"

Jin Xi lowered her head shyly and said, "Jin Xi wants to be with my sister."

General Xu then caught up with her and bowed, "Miss Yan, I'm sorry, but the little princess is clamoring to see you, and I'm really embarrassed."

Jin Yan smiled, "Nothing." She turned to look at Jin Xi, "No, the day after tomorrow is the big celebration day, Jin Xi also needs to attend, shouldn't Jin Xi go to accompany Sister Ning and Sister Yan?"

Jin Xi pinched the hem of her clothes with her hands, and lowered her head, "But Jin Xi wants to be with her sister."

Jin Yan pinched her cute little face and said, "Jin Xi, be good. Sending your sister off to get married is a big happy event. Don't be willful."

Jin Xi pursed her lips, her eyes instantly moistened, and she suddenly hugged Jin Yan, "Jin Xi wants to be with sister. Jin Xi secretly heard that sister is going to replace the emperor, which will be very dangerous. Jin Xi doesn't want sister to get into trouble. Jin Xi wants to accompany sister."

Jin Yan laughed out loud, placed the soft little guy in front of him, and said seriously, "Jin Xi, listen to my sister, this matter is very important, you can't talk about it casually, and my sister is very powerful, nothing will happen."

As she spoke, she spread her hands and a candy appeared instantly. She handed it to Jin Xi, "Here, Jin Xi, stay in the palace. It's safer here than outside. Follow me. I have to split myself to protect you. Will it delay me? Besides, I have to kill the bad guys. Children can't watch this kind of scene."

Jin Xi wiped away her tears, took the candy from Jin Yan, played with the candy wrapper, and pouted, "Jin Xi is not a child."

Jin Yan said patiently, "Okay, okay, you are not a child, but you are a good baby, right?"

Jin Xi nodded vigorously, and Jin Yan persuaded, "Since you are a good boy, just be obedient and go back with General Xu to rest. Tomorrow you will need Jin Xi to help Master Feng treat his wounds."

After hearing this, Jin Xi finally calmed down a little and said in a baby voice, "Then Jin Xi, go back and have a rest, and go find your sister tomorrow morning."

"Okay." Jin Yan scratched her little nose and was touched by her cute look.

After coaxing Jin Xi, Jin Yan stood up and handed Jin Xi to General Xu, "General Xu, I'm sorry to bother you."

General Xu chuckled and said, "The little princess is usually very well-behaved. Maybe she heard something unfavorable about Miss Yan, so she behaved like this. I hope Miss Yan doesn't mind."

Jin Yan immediately caught the key point of General Xu's words. She lowered her head and asked, "Xiao Xi, did you hear someone say something?"

Jin Xi nodded, "I heard from the eunuchs in the palace that my sister will take over the celebration on behalf of the emperor on the day of the celebration, and someone will assassinate my sister and let my sister..."

Seeing that Jin Xi was about to cry, Jin Yan quickly said, "It's okay, Jin Xi, sister will be fine."

Jin Xi looked at Jin Yan suspiciously, "Really?"

Jin Yan's eyes were firm, and he gave Jin Xi an affirmative answer, "Really."

Jin Xi was no longer angry and smiled.

【Children are easy to coax and believe whatever you say. 】

Jin Yan still looked at General Xu and said, "General Xu, there are many people watching recently. I just discussed the Daqing incident with His Majesty today, and before the result came out, relevant news and rumors have spread. General Xu has an incident, so you should investigate the people around Jin Xi to avoid making a big mistake."

After being reminded, General Xu understood. He immediately bowed and said, "Thank you Miss Yan for your reminder. I will send someone to investigate right away."

Jin Yan looked at Jin Xi again, his eyes full of tenderness, "I hope Jin Xi can grow up safely. 】

"General Lao Xu."

General Xu took Jin Xi's hand and watched Jin Yan and the others leave. On the carriage, Zong Zhengye couldn't help but ask, "Miss Yan, is what the little princess said true? Are you really going to host the celebration on behalf of the king?"

Jin Yan nodded casually, "This is what I proposed to the king. I hope that she can protect her life on the day of celebration while also finding the murderer who assassinated her. However, the king has not agreed to this yet."

Zong Zhengye frowned, "Miss Yan, presiding over the celebration is not a good thing. Not to mention whether it can be hidden from the eyes of the people, knowing that there will be assassins to assassinate the king, why do you still want to do this?"

Jin Yan smiled and said, "Compared to me, the king is more important, isn't he?"

Seeing that Zong Zhengye was speechless, he remained silent for a moment and then said, "Then there is no need to exchange your life for another's."

Jin Yan covered his face and chuckled, patting Zong Zhengye on the shoulder, "Do you think I'm stupid, standing there and letting people kill me? Don't worry, I have my own arrangements."

Her eyes rolled, and she thought of something, then she said to Zong Zhengye, "Young Master Zong Zheng, I still need your help with this matter."

"Me?" Zong Zhengye couldn't believe it. Seeing Jin Yan's half-smile, he felt a little flustered. After all, he had seen how cruel Jin Yan was.

The carriage arrived at the station, and the three people got off. Zong Zhengye bowed and said, "Since we have been sent to the place, I will not go upstairs with you two. If you have other things to do, please do as you please."

"Young Master Zongzheng, please."

After Zong Zhengye walked out a few steps, he turned around and said, "Miss Yan, if the king agrees to this matter, the Zong Zheng clan is willing to fully cooperate with Miss Yan."

Jin Yan smiled and said, "Thank you, Young Master Zongzheng."

She watched Zong Zhengye and a group of disciples leave. Although she didn't know what happened, Zong Zhengye didn't say anything and she didn't ask.

After the two returned to the room, they finally had some space to be alone. Jin Yan also put off his tiredness of the day, kicked off his shoes wantonly, and sprawled out on the couch.

Feng Hanyun poured her a cup of tea, "Yan'er, have a drink of water."

Jin Yan quickly took it and drank it in big gulps, "I've been talking all day and drinking a bellyful of tea, and I'm still full now."

Feng Hanyun smiled faintly and said nothing.

Jin Yan suddenly thought of Du Beizhe, and asked, "Master, do you know who Du Beizhe is?"

Feng Hanyun nodded. "Du Beizhe is the youngest prime minister of Fengtian Kingdom. He is proficient in both civil and military strategies. He even made it to the top three and won the championship. In just a few years, he stood out from the strategists selected by Fengtian Kingdom's imperial examination system. He is considered to be a very talented person. He has no background and almost no family. It seems that he appeared out of thin air."
