After rebirth, I was entangled by the Regent

Chapter 500 The First Gift

Another three days passed. During these days, because of the affairs between Yang Liuyue and Ji Beitian, most of the prince's party were uprooted in the court. Xiao Yanchen was still living a life of debauchery and hanging out with Zhao Xinyao in the East Palace.

"It's really strange. Doesn't Xiao Yanchen regard these forces as his lifeblood? He is actually indifferent." Ye Feng was very confused. The people in the East Palace also said that there was nothing else unusual, but Zhao Xinyao was unusually favored.

"If his people were not implicated, I wouldn't be surprised that he acted so recklessly, but these people..." It was indeed a bit strange.

He Jingan and Ye Feng discussed it and went to Shen Zhiang's intelligence office. Shen Zhiang also discussed the news of the past few days and said, "It seems that Xiao Yanchen has no interest in politics."

"That's really strange." He Jing'an thought about it, then took Ye Feng and Shen Zhiang to the Regent's Palace.

Xiao Yi had been watching and listening in the court these days and felt that Xiao Yanchen was very abnormal, and so was his royal brother. If it were in the past, he would have definitely scolded Xiao Yanchen, but he never mentioned it these days.

Nan Mu was also listening to He Jingan's words. She stood up slowly and said, "Let me go see Xiao Yanchen."

"What do you want to see him for?" He Jing'an widened his eyes.

"Ayi, take me to meet Xiao Yanchen." Nan Mu had an idea in her mind. It was not a random thought, but also because of what Xiao Yi said before.

Seeing her so sure, Xiao Yi nodded, then glanced at Ye Qing and asked him to arrange everything. He Jingan looked puzzled, wondering why Xiao Yi also agreed.

Xiao Yi entered the East Palace under the pretext of visiting Xiao Yanchen. In the past, the East Palace was always on high alert, but today, there was no obstruction. The people inside looked calm and took them to the main hall.

Xiao Yanchen walked in with Zhao Xinyao: "Uncle, how come you are free today?"

"I heard from my royal brother that you were cultivating yourself in the East Palace, so I came to take a look." Xiao Yi also looked calm.

Zhao Xinyao, however, bowed to Nan Mu after seeing them: "My Lord, Princess, I am honored to meet you."

Nan Mu glanced at him. There was no flicker in Zhao Xinyao's eyes, but Xiao Yanchen's eyes were very clear. Nan Mu had already made up his mind.

After a few people exchanged pleasantries over a cup of tea, Nan Mu glanced at Xiao Yi, who immediately understood: "Sorry for bothering you today. I'm leaving now."

Xiao Yanchen also respectfully watched them leave, but Zhao Xinyao walked out quickly: "Princess, please stay."

"What's the matter?" Nan Mu looked at Zhao Xinyao.

"Please move over and let us talk, Princess." Zhao Xinyao bowed, Nan Mu smiled, and walked over.

"Princess, you came here today because you heard that the prince has been acting a little strange recently. Can you see it clearly today?" Zhao Xinyao was quite direct.

"What if I didn't see clearly?" Nan Mu looked at Zhao Xinyao: "I know who you are, and I know who you belong to."

"Young lady is indeed the master's flesh and blood, so smart." Zhao Xinyao saluted her: "I admire you."

"I can't bear it. You can see it in your eyes. Su Lan and I have been enemies for a long time." Nan Mu didn't understand why Zhao Xinyao did this.

"Miss, I have poisoned the prince with the soul-eating poison. Otherwise, with his greedy character, how could his eyes be so clear and harmless?" Nan Mu was even more confused.

"Just tell me directly, I'm not afraid..."

“No.” Zhao Xinyao walked to Nan Mu’s side and said, “Miss, this is the first gift the master gave you. Xiao Yanchen is useless, and…” Zhao Xinyao didn’t finish her words. She bowed and left…
