The Cold-Faced God of War's Favored Concubine Is Not to Be Tried

The Queen sat at the mahogany table, her eyes revealing a hint of depth and determination. The Left Prime Minister Zuo Wenyuan and the Lin Taishuai Lin Shengyang were on both sides, their eyes focused on the Queen, waiting for her to speak.

The queen opened her red lips and said slowly: "I think if we can win him over to our side, it will definitely add a lot of help to the royal family." The words sounded nice, saying it was for the royal family, but in fact it was only to consolidate her own position!

As soon as she finished speaking, Prime Minister Zuo and Commander Lin looked at each other, and a hint of recognition flashed in their eyes. Zuo Wenyuan spoke first: "Your Majesty is right. Although the Yaxian Pavilion is new, its influence cannot be underestimated. If we can win it over, it will undoubtedly be a great blessing for our dynasty."

Lin Shengyang also nodded and agreed, "Yes! Although the background of this Yaxian Pavilion is mysterious, it can have such a great influence overnight. If we can take it under our control, we will be able to occupy a more advantageous position in the future government."

The queen took a sip of the fragrant tea, slowly put down the teacup, and said: "Left Prime Minister, Marshal Lin, how do you think we can win over this mysterious Yaxian Pavilion?" Her voice was not loud, but it revealed an unquestionable majesty.

Zuo Wenyuan pondered for a moment and replied, "Your Majesty, Yaxian Pavilion has been operating in a mysterious manner since its opening, and we don't know its details yet. It would be inappropriate to rashly win it over." He frowned slightly, as if thinking of a safer strategy.

Lin Shengyang was more direct: "Your Majesty, I think we should first send someone to secretly investigate the background and strength of Yaxian Pavilion. Only by knowing ourselves and the enemy can we win every battle." A gleam of light flashed in his eyes, and it was obvious that he had a plan.

The queen nodded slightly, expressing her agreement: "You all have a point. But I think we can't just sit back and do nothing."

She paused for a moment and continued, "Left Prime Minister, you are in charge of the government affairs of the court, you can send people to secretly investigate the movements of Yaxian Pavilion. General Lin, you can secretly prepare manpower just in case."

The left prime minister and Lin Taishuai responded in unison, indicating that they had received the order. They knew that since the queen had decided to win over Yaxian Pavilion, they had to go all out and carry out this plan to the end.

In the private room on the second floor of Qingfeng Building, the light gauze danced and the fragrance lingered. The sunlight shone through the half-open window lattice, and sprinkled on the exquisite tabletop, reflecting a golden color. A woman sat delicately on Feng Huaijin's lap. She was wearing a light pink long skirt, and the hem of the skirt swayed gently, like a blooming peach blossom. Her face was delicate and lovely, her eyes were like water, and she was smiling faintly.

The woman placed her hands lightly on Feng Huaijin's shoulders and said in a charming voice, "Master, you are also a well-known businessman with extensive connections. I wonder if you have ever thought about dealing with Yaxian Pavilion?"

Feng Huaijin smiled slightly when he heard this. He gently squeezed the woman's hand and said, "Of course I have heard of the name of Yaxian Pavilion. However, this Yaxian Pavilion is mysterious and unpredictable. Although I want to make friends with it, I don't know where to start."

After hearing this, the woman's eyes flashed with a sly light. She leaned close to Feng Huaijin's ear and whispered, "Master, if you get to know the people behind this Yaxian Pavilion and if you can gain their favor, your business will definitely be able to reach a higher level."

Feng Huaijin was moved when he heard this. He knew that what her son said was true. Although Yaxian Pavilion was new, its influence was growing day by day. If he could establish contact with it, it would be of great benefit to his business.

He held Liu Mei'er's hand tightly, looked at her affectionately and said, "Mei'er, if I can get to know the person behind Yaxian Pavilion, I will never forget your contribution."

When Liu Mei'er heard this, a hint of pride flashed in her eyes, but she quickly concealed it and put on a weak and pitiful look. She snuggled in Feng Huaijin's arms and said in a tender voice: "Master, everything Mei'er does and thinks is for your good. Mei'er doesn't want anything. As long as I can be with you, I will be satisfied."

Feng Huaijin couldn't help but feel guilty when he heard Liu Mei'er say that. He knew that although he doted on Liu Mei'er, he had never been able to give her a name. He stroked Liu Mei'er's hair and said softly, "Mei'er, don't worry, I will find a time to take you home to see your mother."

When Liu Mei'er heard this, a cunning light flashed in her eyes, but she pretended to be afraid and said in a trembling voice: "Master, this is not allowed. My sister will beat Mei'er to death if she finds out."

Feng Huaijin frowned when he heard this. He knew that the "sister" Liu Meier was referring to was his legal wife. Although he was a little unhappy, he felt more pity and protectiveness for Liu Meier. He gently stroked Liu Meier's cheek and said, "Mei'er, don't worry, I will take care of it. You have done so much for me, I will never let you suffer any injustice."

After hearing this, Liu Meier was secretly pleased with herself, knowing that her plan had worked. She hugged Feng Huaijin tightly, with a sly gleam in her eyes, as if she had seen her future glory and wealth.

Feng Huaijin hugged Liu Meier tightly, his eyes gleaming with anticipation. He asked curiously, "Mei'er, so, do you have any good ideas that can help us find out the mysterious person behind Yaxian Pavilion?"

Liu Meir smiled slightly, gently broke free from Feng Huaijin's embrace, sat beside him, leisurely picked up a cup of tea, took a sip, and then slowly said: "Master, since Yaxian Pavilion has just opened and has been closed to visitors recently, we can't start from the front."

Feng Huaijin frowned slightly, somewhat puzzled: "Not from the front? Then what should I do?"

Liu Mei'er smiled slightly, with wisdom glittering in her eyes. She whispered to Feng Huaijin, "Master, since Yaxian Pavilion sells the mysterious magic medicine, they must need to buy various medicinal materials to make it. Why don't we start from this point and keep an eye on the various medicine shops in the city?"

Feng Huaijin's eyes lit up and he asked curiously, "Oh? What's Mei'er's plan?"

Liu Meir continued, "We can secretly monitor the movements of various medicine shops. Once we find that people from Yaxian Pavilion are purchasing medicinal materials, we can take the opportunity to approach them and sell them the medicinal materials at a more favorable price. In this way, we can not only understand their demand for medicinal materials, but also find out more information in the transaction."

After hearing this, Feng Huaijin nodded in approval: "Great! Mei'er is really smart. This way, we can not only find out what medicinal materials they need, but also take the opportunity to get closer to them and get more information."

Liu Meier smiled slightly and continued, "Moreover, we can also take this opportunity to establish closer ties with the shopkeepers of the medicine shops and learn more about Yaxian Pavilion from them. After all, these shopkeepers are all old people in the city and are well-informed about all kinds of information."

After hearing this, Feng Huaijin was even more delighted. He held Liu Mei'er's hand tightly and said gratefully: "Mei'er, you are really my right-hand man. With your help, I believe we will be able to uncover the mystery of Yaxian Pavilion soon."
