The arrogant imperial concubine arrives, the favorite of the regent

The queen thought about it for a moment, and quickly withdrew her thoughts. Never mind, whether it was her trusted ones or not, it was always a good thing for them to be afraid of her. At least she could have absolute control, instead of being controlled by others just for the small matter of not wanting to take medicine.

The queen picked up her handkerchief and wiped her lips. Her strange illness could not be cured by taking medicine alone, and there was no way to get timely relief.

Like Ye Chuhe, his condition can usually be suppressed temporarily through acupuncture and medication to alleviate the pain of the illness.

As for her, whether she had an attack or not, ordinary treatments were of no use to her body. She now insisted on taking medicine every day, just hoping to slightly reduce the frequency of attacks and the degree of pain caused by the attacks.

The queen ate a few more plums to suppress the bitterness on her tongue.

Outside, the night was gloomy. Inside, the candlelight was bright yellow.

The queen snapped her fingers, and soon a man in black appeared in front of her.

"This subordinate has met his master."

"Let me ask you, is there any new movement from Wanyan Gu?"

"My Lord, Prince Wan has not been unusual recently. He always stays in the envoy's courtyard and rarely goes out. He also has no major interactions with people in the capital. He only has some contact with the people from the Nantai envoy group."

"Oh?" The queen raised her eyebrows, pondering the secret guard's report.

The Queen and her entourage had been sending people to keep an eye on Wanyan Gu, but Wanyan Gu was a prince after all, and he and the team of envoys he brought with him were not too weak.

No matter how much the Queen's people usually pay attention to the movements of the Nantai envoys, there will be times when their surveillance is not adequate, and they will not be able to monitor Wanyan Gu any closer because the Nantai secret guards are guarding him.

In addition, Wanyan Gu acted very cautiously and never left any traces. If the Queen and her entourage wanted to investigate Wanyan Gu, it would probably not be so easy to get to the bottom of it.

At this time, the queen was thinking about the reply from the secret guard. She also knew that in order to keep a low profile and not expose her various investigation activities, she dared not send people to investigate Wanyan Gu on a large scale. Therefore, it was inevitable that her secret guards would not be able to find anything.

So, is the information they have found out now completely true? Is it completely reliable?

The queen didn't dare to guarantee it, so the secret guard spoke carefully: "Master..."

But he hasn't finished speaking yet...

"Shut up..." the queen shouted angrily, staring at the secret guards. "Didn't I tell you? How should you address me normally?"

The secret guard shuddered again and knelt down hurriedly: "Yes, I know I was wrong." His tone became lower, "I beg you, please forgive me this time, Queen."

The queen casually took out the porcelain bowl that contained the medicine and smashed it directly on the secret guard's shoulder.

The scalding porcelain bowl hit his bone, and the secret guard moved his body slightly, forcing himself to stay in a kneeling position.

The queen said coldly: "This will not happen again." She had not yet completely dismissed the palace servants outside the main hall, and these people dared to call her "Master" directly. Didn't they want to kill her as their master as well as themselves?

The queen rolled her eyes at the man in black, then thought that Wanyan Gu had been in obscurity since he came to the capital, and she believed that a powerless little prince like him would not be able to make any waves.

After several fruitless inquiries, the queen began to reduce her vigilance towards Wanyan Gu.

The queen said to her confidants, "Just keep watching Wanyan Gu. There's no need to send more people to monitor him, lest our whereabouts be exposed."

Nanny Pei and the others agreed, and the Queen continued, "I am not really concerned about Wanyan Gu. The person I am more concerned about now is Nantai's Sixth Prince Wanyan Sen."

Nanny Pei was a little surprised and thought: "Does the Queen really think that rumor is true? Does Prince Sen really intend to come to Zhongyue to ask for a good marriage, and require that the marriage partner must be a real princess or princess of the royal family of Zhongyue?"

"Oh! What's there to be afraid of? Wanyan Sen wants to marry Zhong Yue just like Wanyan Gu, isn't this a very normal thing?"

The Queen's rhetorical question was full of affirmation. She had just learned from the Jing family a few days ago about a hidden rumor in the court: the Sixth Prince of Nantai was suspected of wanting to ask Zhongyue to marry a woman from Zhongyue's royal family...

The queen had no interest in marriage. She only had the prince as her child. If she really wanted to have a princess, it would not be her turn to give birth to one. She had no daughter, and no one dared to let the queen's daughter marry far away.

What's more, many concubines also have several little princesses under their names. It would be a good idea for them to marry the women of other countries! It has nothing to do with her anyway!

The secret guards couldn't figure out what the queen meant. Since they were not targeting the Sixth Prince of Nantai because of the rumor that he wanted to marry Zhongyue, then what other reasons could they be targeting him?

The queen was too lazy to give her subordinates too much advice, and explained coldly: "The marriage is not important, the matters between countries are more important."

"That's why I asked you to keep an eye on Prince Mori, and I also asked those of us who stayed in Nantai to pay more attention to Prince Mori's actions."

Everyone understood, and they were ready to shift their energy and efforts from Prince Bone to Prince Sen.

Seeing that the servants understood her meaning completely, the queen curled her lips into a slight sneer and then turned the topic to the most critical issue.

Her secret network had captured some information, and she also knew that the emperor had sent people all the way north to three places in succession to search for traces of a team from another country.

In fact, the emperor and she should have guessed that the newly emerged Nantai team was the Nantai team that had caused some trouble around the capital before.

However, the emperor and his people knew the clues to several addresses in Huangchuan County and Ningkun County. These Nantai people only came to Zhongyue to do business two months ago. They were not the Nantai team that appeared shortly after the Night King returned to Beijing.

The earlier team had already shown some signs of their existence in Zhongyue half a year ago.

In short, these two groups of people are different! And it is obvious that the second group of people seems to be more important, and the events involved are more magnanimous!

Therefore, she not only had to keep an eye on Wanyan Gu and even Wanyan Sen, but also had to allocate more of her personal personnel to investigate the affairs of the Nantai team.

What the Queen didn't know was that her powerful attack prompted Ye Xiaohan and his group, who had been waiting calmly, to follow suit.

Ye Xiaohan knew that the queen seemed to have some secrets, so he quietly waited for the right time to force the queen to reveal herself, so as to gradually solve the puzzles related to the queen's identity and Yun Mujiu's life experience...
