Looking at Xu Yingying's expression, Li Siqi shook his head. He also knew that Xu Yingying was not good at these things.

"I really can't think of any plan, but I think there must be some clues behind what they did, and we will definitely be able to find loopholes."

Xu Yingying said with great certainty.

After all, there is no wall that is impenetrable, not to mention that the person sent by Cui Jiangyuan has already found out the information.

This means that as long as they spend time collecting evidence, they should be able to get useful clues.

"You are right, but it is not enough to just get clues. We are in a very passive situation now. We must find an opportunity to strike."

Li Siqi's words surprised Xu Yingying. She didn't expect that Li Siqi would be so thoughtful today.

She glanced at Li Siqi, "So what do you mean?"

Xu Yingying was very much looking forward to seeing what Li Siqi had planned.

"I want to use your hands to deal with them." Li Siqi spoke.

After hearing what Li Siqi said, Xu Yingying nodded. She was not surprised that Li Siqi asked her for help.

"I can cooperate with you, but why choose me?" Xu Yingying glanced at Li Siqi.

After hearing this, Li Siqi answered without hesitation: "Because His Majesty trusts you very much now, so you are the most suitable."

After Li Siqi finished speaking, he glanced at Xu Yingying.

After hearing what Li Siqi said, Xu Yingying was thoughtful. Since Li Siqi said so, she would definitely cooperate with him, so she agreed without hesitation: "Okay."

Li Siqi was very excited when he saw Xu Yingying agreed.

"We are all in the same boat." Xu Yingying said lightly with a smile on her face, but then her expression changed.

She thought of the fact that Li Siming had tried to kill her, and her expression became gloomy again.

Li Siqi looked at Xu Yingying's determined expression and finally felt relieved.

"It's settled then." Li Siqi smiled.

"Of course." Xu Yingying nodded, her mind full of how to deal with Li Siming.

After returning to the palace, Xu Yingying and Li Siqi found a group of people waiting at the door.

"Greetings to His Royal Highness the Ninth Prince." The leader among the group said to Li Siqi.

Li Siqi nodded.

Li Siqi first became alert to those who came to the gate of the palace.

He felt that someone coming to his palace at this time must have bad intentions, so he looked at everyone and said.

"Who took the photo and what are you doing here?"

Li Siqi asked, if they were really people sent by the prince, it meant that their current situation was very dangerous.

After hearing Li Siqi's question, those people looked at each other for a few seconds, and finally set their sights on Xu Yingying.

"Your Highness, it was His Majesty who asked us to come and find Lord Xu." The leading captain said to Li Siqi.

Li Siqi nodded after hearing this, and he looked at Xu Yingying meaningfully.

Fortunately, he was not sent by the prince, and he believed that the prince would never have the courage to falsely convey the imperial edict.

Xu Yingying showed a look of confidence.

"Don't worry." Xu Yingying said softly to Li Siqi.

After hearing what Xu Yingying said, Li Siqi nodded. At this point, he could only place his hopes on her.

Looking at Xu Yingying's receding back, Li Siqi's thoughts were somewhat complicated.

When Xu Yingying saw the emperor, she knelt down and saluted very respectfully.

"Your Majesty," Xu Yingying said to the emperor.

The emperor nodded.

"Get up, my dear Lord Xu." The emperor motioned Xu Yingying to get up, and he looked at Xu Yingying.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Xu Yingying brushed the dust off her body and looked at the emperor with a sincere smile.

"No need to be so polite. I have nothing else to ask you to do today. The main reason is that the opening of the coffin will be postponed."

The emperor frowned slightly. Of course he wanted to find out the truth as soon as possible, but there were force majeure factors and he could do nothing about it.

"Oh?" Xu Yingying was surprised at first, but then quickly returned to her normal expression.

The emperor told her about this matter just to inform her. She didn't need to know why it was delayed. She just needed to obey and do her job. That was enough.

The emperor smiled bitterly and shook his head, explaining, "I asked the imperial master to calculate it, and he decided on an auspicious day."

The emperor said helplessly.

After hearing the emperor's words, Xu Yingying showed a look of sudden enlightenment.

"Since it is an auspicious date chosen by the imperial master, then it is naturally excellent." Xu Yingying agreed.

Hearing Xu Yingying's words, the emperor smiled and said to Xu Yingying earnestly: "Lord Xu, you have troubled me so much."

Xu Yingying was deeply moved by the emperor's words.

Xu Yingying turned around and found that Camellia, who had been following her, was gone.

Where did the camellia go?

Xu Yingying frowned.

She discovered that every time Camellia came here, she would become uneasy.

Could it be that camellia has some kind of connection with this palace?

Thinking of this, Xu Yingying frowned and felt a chill.

"Since Your Majesty has nothing else to do, I will take my leave first." Xu Yingying said to His Majesty.

After hearing Xu Yingying's words, the emperor nodded and said, "Go."

The emperor waved his hand, and Xu Yingying came to the door and began to search around.

At this time, the camellia floated to the residence of the Imperial Concubine.

A lot of disturbing memories emerged in Camellia's mind, and she felt that this place made her very uneasy.

After bidding farewell to the emperor, Xu Yingying was looking for camellia everywhere.

The emperor followed closely and saw Xu Yingying. "What are you doing here?"

The emperor saw Xu Yingying looking for something everywhere, so he asked with a smile, wanting to see if she was in any trouble.

When Xu Yingying saw that it was the emperor, she became a little anxious for a moment.

So she made up an excuse, "Your Majesty, a jade pendant was lost here."

Xu Yingying smiled awkwardly.

The emperor nodded and said, "I thought something happened to Lord Xu. It's just that he lost something. I'll help you find it."

The emperor was very happy, but this made Xu Yingying at a loss for a moment.

"Your Majesty, there is no need to mobilize your troops. It is just a second-rate jade pendant. If you can't find it, just don't look for it."

Xu Yingying hurriedly told the emperor, fearing that the emperor would send someone to look for her.

But the emperor didn't take it seriously after hearing what Xu Yingying said.

"How can you not look for it?" The emperor looked at Xu Yingying very seriously.

When Xu Yingying heard what the emperor said, she sighed. She knew that she couldn't stop him this time.

"Come here, Master Xu's jade pendant is lost, come and help find it."

At the emperor's command, the eunuchs in the harem began to search.

"Camellia, Camellia."
