"No, I have to go back to Yazhou to find them now."

"Fourth Miss, Third Miss has already sent people to look for him. You have also witnessed it in the letter. We have also sent many people to search for him. Once there is any news, we will inform you immediately. If you insist on going to Yazhou now, the journey is long and it will take at least one or two months. By then, I am afraid you will miss the important imperial examination." There was a hint of persuasion in Taozhi's words.

When it comes to scientific examinations, Jiang Siyu feels filled with worries and can't calm down.

“I just can’t find peace of mind.”

However, what Taozhi said was not without reason. Even if she rushed to Yazhou at this moment, what could she do? I'm afraid she would be helpless...

Now all she can do is wait for news from Yazhou, and Jiang Siyu can only pray silently that they are all well.

"As soon as you have any news, let me know immediately."

"Yes."

……

At this moment, a strange secret letter was also received in Prince Yu’s mansion.

It was clearly marked on it "Must be opened by Prince Yu himself", so Zheng Changkong did not dare to open it casually and could only wait for Baili Zhao to return from the palace.

Fortunately, Baili Zhao's body has fully recovered and he no longer needs to pretend to be sick.

Baili Jingyao naturally came to visit him in a hypocritical manner, "Zhao'er, you finally woke up."

"Father...I am fine now. I am sorry to have worried you."

"This is all thanks to the miraculous healing of Daoist Master Jiang. You must never forget this kindness."

"That's natural."

Baili Zhao and Jiang Nianwei looked at each other tacitly.

Baili Zhao quickly returned to the palace to recuperate, while Baili Jingyao kept Jiang Nianwei.

"Master Jiang, I have something important to discuss with you."

Jiang Nianwei understood that Wen Xiuwan must have told him everything about the investigation.

Baili Jingyao must have had doubts in his heart. He must have pondered and thought deeply about these words before he slowly spoke them to Jiang Nianwei.

"Recently, I feel refreshed, as if I have returned to my youth, and all this is thanks to Taoist Jiang. Not to mention that Zhao'er was poisoned and it was Taoist Jiang who saved his life. Taoist Jiang has been very kind to me, I wonder what kind of reward you would like?" There was a hint of temptation in Baili Jingyao's words.

"Thank you for your grace, Your Majesty. I do not need any reward."

"Master Jiang," Baili Jingyao's tone slowly sank, "I have sent people to check your background. Baiyun Temple is fake, and those Taoists are fake. If you don't want a reward, then why do you stay by my side?"

Jiang Nianwei was still very calm. "I have said that I have no other request. Baiyun Temple is a place that only those who are destined to see it can see. If the people sent by Your Majesty cannot see it, it means that the fate between Your Majesty and I is over. I should probably leave."

"What, Master Jiang, you want to leave? That's not what I meant..."

Whether he is true or false, his method is effective, and that is enough for him.

Jiang Nian answered neither humbly nor arrogantly, which dispelled Baili Jingyao's doubts.

"If your heart is not sincere, it would be a shame for me to stay here. If your heart is sincere, your wish will come true."

"Master Jiang, I am absolutely sincere."

This Taoist priest is still useful, and Baili Jingyao doesn't want him to die for the time being. If he wants to leave, he will definitely not leave him alive.

As for immortality, it is enough for him to be the only one in the world to enjoy it.

"I can see your Majesty's sincerity, and I have something else to explain to you."

"Oh? Why?"

"The father and son of the Yazhou Li family have all been eliminated. Your Majesty will not have any hidden dangers in the short term, but your Majesty's side... I can only remind your Majesty to be careful of the people around you, the people you are close to, the people you trust..."

"Master, can you please explain it clearly?" As an emperor, there are many people around him who harbor evil intentions and are extremely ambitious.

But he seems to like to use the art of balance to control these big families.

Jiang Nianwei said meaningfully: "For example? For example, your Majesty's crown prince and queen..."

These words made Baili Jingyao feel as if his heart was being scratched by sharp claws.

But the Wen family has begun to put pressure on him, so he cannot execute the prince easily.

Even if he couldn't execute him, assassination was the worst form of treason. He could spare his life, but he couldn't take away his position as the crown prince.

……

Wen Xiuwan seized the opportunity, quietly sneaked into the dark cell, and finally saw Bailihe who was bound by iron chains.

Seeing his haggard appearance, her heart was broken as if by a knife, and tears could not help but flow down her cheeks. "My son, you have suffered so much, and I swear to rescue you from this abyss."

Bailihe looked up at his mother, his eyes full of sorrow. "Mother, I really can't understand why Daidai would rather die than push me into this place of no return? Is there no one in this world who truly treats me?"

During the days he was trapped here, no matter how he requested to see his father or protested his injustice, his father never came to see him.

"Hasn't my mother always been by your side to protect you? As long as you trust me, I will definitely protect you."

The result of the Wen family's request was just to save Bailihe's life.

But the position of crown prince will definitely be abolished. If her child cannot become the crown prince, then what is the point?

She will definitely let Bailihe take the throne of the crown prince.

Wen Xiuwan hated Baili Jingyao. If it weren't for him, she wouldn't have been trapped in the palace for most of her life, forced to separate from her beloved, and give birth to a child with someone she didn't like.

Especially when she received the news of King Rui's death, she almost lost her balance.

She hated King Rui's incompetence, but she also loved the man deeply. When he died, her heart died with him.

Bailih is the only bloodline left in the world, so she must protect him.

An idea gradually arose in her mind. With the strength of the Wen family and the help of the Meng family, she wanted to pull Baili Jingyao down from the throne!

The best way is to let Baili Jingyao die.

She hugged the crying Bailihe into her arms and comforted him with soft voices.

"My child, if you are going to do something, you have to do it cleanly. We have no way out now."

At night, Baili Jingyao made a rare visit to Yiku Palace to visit Wen Xiuwan.

Wen Xiuwan still had her usual cold face. This man had used a trick to force her to marry him. Since then, she had closed her heart and locked away her love, and even wanted to die.

But at that time, she was diagnosed with pregnancy.

She was frightened but also happy, but this joy was soon replaced by reason. She knew very well that the imperial physician who took her pulse would no longer be able to stay in this world after knowing this secret.

That night, an imperial physician in the palace suddenly disappeared.

Instead, the Wen family arranged for an imperial physician to enter the palace to take care of her personally.

In order to give birth to the baby as soon as possible, she took drugs to induce labor, which caused Bailih to be born a month early and his body was weaker than a full-term baby.

Wen Xiuwan exhausted all her means and used up all the precious Chinese medicines to ensure that Bailihe could grow up safely. She was her most beloved child.

Seeing Baili Jingyao coming, Wen Xiuwan came back to her senses, "Your Majesty, how come you have time to come to my palace."

The expression on Baili Jingyao's face froze for a moment, then returned to normal, "You are my queen, is it not possible for me to come and visit her?"

"Isn't your majesty still angry with me?"

"We are already an old couple, why are you still angry?"

He wanted to hold Wen Xiuwan's hand, but she dodged him, "I am not feeling well, I am afraid I have spoiled your majesty's mood."

Baili Jingyao grabbed her hand forcefully and suddenly shouted, "Wen Xiuwan! After so many years, you are still like this. You are my queen, whether you like it or not!"

Wen Xiuwan's arms trembled slightly, "Your Majesty...you misunderstood, I really didn't."

"That's better." Baili Jingyao turned away.

After he left, Wen Xiuwan sneered, "I just hate you. I just hate you."

She washed her hands with soap nuts over and over again, and the smell of him made her feel extremely uncomfortable.

But why did Baili Jingyao come to see her at this time? She couldn't care less now. She had to get rid of Baili Jingyao before the crown prince was abolished, so that Baili He could ascend to the throne smoothly.

Her goal was achieved.

……

As soon as Baili Zhaofu stepped into the palace, Zheng Changkong came to greet him, holding a tightly sealed letter in his hand, "Your Majesty, a master with extraordinary skills just quietly left this letter. Before I could see the real face, the letter was nailed to the door of the palace."

Baili Zhao took the letter in confusion. Who is so mysterious?

He opened the seal and unfolded the letter. As the information between the lines came into view, Baili Zhao's expression gradually became solemn.

"Changkong, although Prince Rui is dead and never spoke of that incident, there is still one person who knows it and she is still alive. The nanny who delivered my mother was not killed and is still alive. She just lived under a disguised name. As long as we find her, we can reveal all the truth to His Majesty. You should follow the clues in the letter to find her now!"

"My subordinate understands."

Zheng Changkong turned around and disappeared in the palace.

……

Wen Xiuwan came up with a good idea. There were also her people hiding around Baili Jingyao, and he had to take the pills given to him by Taoist Jiang every day.

Why not take this opportunity to do something with these elixirs? Baili Jingyao unfortunately died, and the first person everyone suspected would only be the Taoist priest.

If this plan succeeds, it will not only eliminate the biggest worry in my heart, but also get rid of Taoist Master Jiang who always obstructs me. It can be said to kill two birds with one stone.

Wen Xiuwan's mind raced as she recalled that the herbs Taoist Jiang needed to refine the elixir were all carefully provided by the Imperial Hospital. So, she decided to quietly make plans based on these herbs.

In this deep palace, her Wen Xiuwan's methods have always been flawless.

This action must be done perfectly, leaving Taoist Jiang speechless.

In the past, the secret drug that she relied on to induce labor was carefully prepared by a nanny who was familiar with medicine.

This nanny is loyal and is her confidant.

It’s just a pity that although she is loyal, this secret cannot be known to more people.

When the nanny was by her side, she could still monitor her at all times, but once she left the palace, the secret would inevitably be leaked one day. After all, only the dead can truly keep the secrets of this world.

So, on the night when Mammy was about to return home, she hardened her heart and sent out her most reliable killer to kill Mammy and her entire family silently.

If that nanny had not chosen to go back, she would have been her right-hand man now. What a pity.

Wen Xiuwan quickly tampered with the herbs and watched with her own eyes as they were delivered to the Taoist temple.

Jiang Nianwei actually didn’t use the herbs in the palace very often. When these herbs were delivered today, she smelled a strange odor.

She picked up a handful thoughtfully and put it to her nose to smell it.

As expected, the person who could do this was definitely Wen Xiuwan. She wanted to use her hand to get rid of Baili Jingyao.

Little did she know that she had already secretly planned everything. She wanted to kill someone with a borrowed knife, but she had already fallen into her trap.

She wanted to kill the king, but Jiang Nianwei never told Baili Zhao about this.

No matter how bad a father and king Baili Jingyao is, he is still Baili Zhao's biological father.

"Queen, then it's as you wish!"

But first she must arrange all the evidence, so that Wen Xiuwan can fall into the trap.

Jiang Nianwei had thought of everything, but someone came to report, "Master, Guard Meng wants to see you."

Ah Bei? Ever since the last incident, Ah Bei and she had never spoken to each other again. In fact, she was not angry, but she just hoped that Ah Bei could stand in his position. She knew that he had no choice but to work for the Meng family.

"Let him in."

Meng Huaibei strode in and closed the door as soon as he entered.

"I have found out something and I must inform you as soon as possible."

He walked to the herbs, frowned and said, "They are poisonous. Miss, you must not use them to make pills, otherwise you will fall into a trap."

"Abei, you are still on my side. I know you are not a bad person."

"Miss, do you already know?"

Meng Huaibei was not surprised. The young lady was so powerful and had always been very strong. Naturally, she would be able to discover the clues early on. It was just that he was afraid... afraid that the young lady would really have an accident.

"Abei, come here, you've come just in time, I just have something to discuss with you."

"What's the matter?"

"With your intelligence, it shouldn't be difficult to track down those who secretly serve the Queen, right?" Jiang Nianwei showed a sinister smile.

"It's easy to catch, Miss, you have a plan in mind?" A glimmer of understanding flashed in Ah Bei's eyes.

"That's exactly what you thought. I want her to suffer the consequences of her own actions and have a taste of the bitter fruit." Jiang Nianwei's smile grew deeper.

"Miss, you will also be affected by this matter."

"You don't need to worry about these, just follow my instructions."

"Yes, sir. I will do my best!"

He was about to turn around and leave, but Jiang Nianwei suddenly stopped him, "Wait a minute, why is there blood on your hands?"

Meng Huaibei covered his wound and said, "Maybe I was careless just now..."

"You're still as careless as before. Let me bandage it up for you. I have some medicine here, too."
