Just when no one else was paying attention, the little eunuch's hand suddenly appeared above the pot of soup, and some white powder seemed to be shaken out from his sleeves and fell into the soup. No one saw this scene, and everyone was busy doing their own work, so no one had time to look around.

The young eunuch was not at all panicked, nor did he look around. Instead, he continued to stir the soup, then slowly reduced the fire at the bottom of the stove until it died down and the soup just needed to be warm.

The little palace maid who was preparing wine in another place seemed to have used the same operation. There seemed to be some white stuff slowly dissolving in the wine, making it impossible to detect. Every jar of wine was opened and carefully inspected, so nothing was left out.

For this banquet, the Crown Prince brought the Crown Princess and two concubines to the Imperial Garden at the same time. Originally, without the Queen, this banquet should have been planned by the Crown Princess, but the Emperor looked down on her, so someone from the harem arranged it. Who was it that let the Crown Princess's previous deeds be discovered?

Although the prince had presented the evidence to the emperor, they had no way to remove the crown princess because of some things, so they could only hold their noses and let her continue to sit on the throne. Before Prime Minister Liu was removed from office, no one could remove the crown princess.

But as long as the most noble father and son of the Tian family have their minds set on something, no matter how powerful a person is, how many times can they survive the calculations? Especially for Prime Minister Liu, his family is not clean at all. A casual investigation can reveal many things, but none of them are fatal. They are still waiting.

After Concubine Zhang arrived at the Imperial Garden, she felt it was too noisy, so she went straight to the quieter pavilion. There was no distinction between day and night now, so she sat in the pavilion and looked at the dry pond in silence. There was nothing in it. She didn't know where the emperor got the interest to hold a banquet at this time. Moreover, the water in the palace seemed to be used less, as all of it was transported back from the south with great effort, and now it was being wasted like this.

The prince looked at the direction Zhang Qianqian left, thought for a while, and then followed her. They sat in the pavilion at the same time. The two seemed to be talking about something, but they were too far away for others to hear.

Because Liu Wanjun has been worried for a while, and because what she did was discovered, she hasn't been eating well and getting enough rest, and has become a little haggard. Now that she has put on makeup, she looks like she has a big head and a small body, and she looks weird.

Now, the Crown Princess's court dress seemed a little loose on him, without any of the former graceful and elegant bearing. Instead, he looked like a child wearing adult clothes.

Looking at the backs of Concubine Zhang and the Crown Prince as they were talking in the pavilion, the Crown Princess clenched the handkerchief in her hand tightly. She had explained it many times, so why didn't the Crown Prince believe her?

Thinking of this, she whispered a few words to the maid beside her. This maid was the one who stayed by her side when she was under house arrest. Her father had arranged for her to stay here after she was imprisoned. She was the only person she could get hold of now. The others were all the emperor and the prince's men, and she couldn't trust them at all.

Watching the maid leave the imperial garden and looking at the beautiful couple in the pavilion, she silently adjusted the eight-tailed phoenix hairpin on her head. Now the only one who could give her confidence was her father.

There is no rush. As long as she is the Crown Princess, no one can do anything to her. Zhang Qianqian is a concubine, or to put it nicely, just a concubine beneath her. Even if she is killed, no one will say anything.

At this time, the Crown Prince and Concubine Zhang were talking about their son. The news of their son's disappearance had now reached Jinling, and even the details of the manhunt during this period had also been spread, making Concubine Zhang extremely angry.

It was because the Zhang family activated their special communication that they were able to reach Jinling City so quickly. Otherwise, if they went there alone, they would be exhausted to death and still not be able to reach the destination.

The prince was sitting next to her and looking at Zhang Qianqian. Because of the child's worried look, even the prince felt that this person was really annoying. He didn't know how to comfort people, but he still said a few words dryly.

"I already know about Yun'er's disappearance, but from what my father-in-law said, it seems that he knows who took Yun'er away, so you don't have to worry so much. It seems that they know Yun'er's whereabouts."

Concubine Zhang looked up at her husband. To be honest, she actually hated the prince very much over the years. If it weren't for Yun'er, she would have really killed him. It was so annoying. Couldn't they just lock him up as a couple and not bother her anymore?

"Thank you for your comfort, Your Highness. But Yun'er is missing, and I am still worried. I still want to know where my Yun'er is."

The prince could only sigh helplessly. He had sent many people to look for her, but to no avail. However, now there were powerful people everywhere raising their troops to revolt, wanting to directly replace the royal family and become the masters of the world.

Those uncles and aunts who look friendly are still waiting for the price and are unwilling to stand directly in the royal position. Instead, they are looking at who has potential. It is estimated that they will stand directly behind that person with potential.

He has been exhausted from dealing with state affairs these past two days. For the sake of the Zhou family's kingdom, he must stabilize it, otherwise it will become a mess.
