The daughter of the emperor is beautiful and holds the power over the world

When Si Yan left the emperor's bedroom, the court officials had already dispersed.

Wu Wan'er was still kneeling on the ground at the door, shivering from the cold in her thin dance costume.

The special envoys from Beimang Kingdom have already left. It seems that they want to force the emperor to accept Wu Wan'er.

The queen was standing not far away. She smiled when she saw Si Yan and seemed to be waiting for Si Yan.

Prince Yong was also there...

Si Yan walked over slowly, and the queen looked at him with gratitude in her eyes.

Today, Si Yan changed the people around the Imperial Concubine with just a few words, and also took back the power of the Imperial Palace for her. This girl is indeed not simple.

The Queen and Si Yan became much more familiar with each other: "Yu'er insisted on staying with me, but I know that he was actually waiting for you."

After the words fell, the queen turned to look at Qi Ziyu with a smile, "Okay, Master Si Yan is out. It's been a busy day today. You should go back and rest early."

The queen didn't ask too many questions, but she thought in her heart that the cancellation of their engagement was just a superficial act and had no impact on their relationship.

Si Yan didn't say much. She and Qi Ziyu bid farewell to the queen and left the palace.

"Your Highness should go back and rest earlier. There's no need to wait for me." Si Yan said softly.

"I'm fine now." Qi Ziyu felt relieved when he saw that Si Yan was fine.

The two didn't say much along the way and parted ways at the palace gate.

Zuo Hang came to greet Prince Yong. Qi Ziyu got on the carriage and Zuo Hang couldn't stop sighing.

Too many things happened at today's palace banquet. The most regrettable thing was that Miss Si Yan and His Royal Highness Prince Yong broke off their engagement.

Zuo Hang asked in confusion, "Your Highness, you clearly like Miss Si Yan, so why did you agree to cancel the engagement?"

Qi Ziyu was silent for a while, and only replied lightly: "Because there is more to do."

As soon as he finished speaking, he couldn't stop coughing with his hands covering his lips.

The genius doctor Yunya asked for leave from the emperor today and left the palace to look after Prince Yong, but he met Si Yan first.

"Little girl, I know you have something to ask me." Doctor Yunya went straight to the point.

Si Yan was also very direct: "May I ask, Senior, will Prince Yong's health affect his offspring?"

"This has no impact." Doctor Yunya was very perceptive about palace affairs. When he heard Si Yan ask this, he knew that someone was spreading rumors.

Divine Doctor Yunya said, "I will explain this to Your Majesty some other day."

"Even if I explain, His Majesty may not listen. He has already determined in his heart that we are all Prince Yong's people."

Si Yan said to Divine Doctor Yunya, "Thank you for taking care of Prince Yong."

"Don't worry." said the genius doctor Yunya.

Prince Yong was poisoned again today, and it became even more difficult to take care of his health. He had to eliminate the new poison from his body first.

"The poison in Mo Han..."

"I've checked it with him. It'll take another day or two to prepare the antidote. General Ling will have to be patient for the next two days."

"okay I know."

It was already dark, and the streets were filled with big red lanterns.

Si Yan walked back and when he passed by Yayue Pavilion, Boya was waiting at the door of Yayue Pavilion. What happened at the palace banquet today had spread throughout the entire Shangjing City.

Si Yan's engagement with Prince Yong was cancelled. Si Yan punched a warrior from Beimang State and killed a tiger from Beimang State. Si Yan was appointed as a first-rank female official by His Majesty, and was allowed to enter and leave the palace at will, and report anything directly to His Majesty.

Boya really didn't expect that this girl was not only extremely brave on the battlefield, but also shined brightly in the court.

How many people, despite spending their entire lives, are unable to become a top official.

This girl actually went from being the daughter of a prime minister to becoming a first-rank female official overnight.

Si Yan walked up to the third floor and went to his exclusive box. Boya followed him in: "Congratulations, Master Si Yan."

Boya had a smile in his eyes. Si Yan looked up at him and said, "I want to drink."

Boya glanced outside, and Afan immediately asked someone to bring up the fine wine collected by Yayue Pavilion.

Boya personally poured wine for Si Yan. Si Yan looked out the window at the dark moon in the night sky, drinking one glass after another. As he drank, he asked, "Have you seen Wei Shu?"

"I have met you." Boya nodded.

"Have you ever seen Prince Xin?" Si Yan asked again.

"I've seen it."

"Do you think they look a bit alike?"

Boya immediately held his breath and didn't say anything for a long time. If Si Yan hadn't mentioned it, he wouldn't have noticed it, but once Si Yan mentioned it, he really felt that the two of them were somewhat similar.

They have been investigating Wei Shu's identity recently, but their focus has been on the relationship between Wei Shu and the Northern Mang Kingdom, and they have not thought about the relationship between Wei Shu and Prince Xin.

"It seems somewhat similar." Boya replied seriously.

Si Yan drank a glass of wine and said, "I've always found it strange. Wei Shu has been in Daxuan for more than 20 years. He started out as a scholar, but after all this time, he's still just an aide to Prince Chen's palace..."

"It's quite strange." Boya took over.

Si Yan drank another glass of wine. "But, you said the staff, why is his power so great? Even Prince Chen listens to him, and Xin Rui even has to consult him on matters. With Wei Shu's talent, if he could enter the court, he would have reached the highest position in the government long ago. But he chose to hide in Prince Chen's mansion, living in seclusion and rarely showing up. Why do you think that is?"

"Maybe he is hiding something." Boya replied.

Si Yan didn't say anything. The two of them understood each other tacitly. If Wei Shu and Prince Xin looked somewhat similar, they would naturally be afraid of being noticed.

Si Yan spoke slowly, "A group of people have been driven out of the palace recently. They were all personal attendants to the Imperial Concubine. Among them are two old maids who have been with her since she entered the palace. You should have someone investigate what happened to the Imperial Concubine when Prince Xin was born. Start with them and see if you can find out if there's something wrong with Prince Xin's identity."

There was a hint of surprise in Boya's eyes. If Prince Xin's identity was really different, that would be a shocking secret.

When Si Yan returned to the court, he saw Prince Xin for the first time at the Ten-Li Pavilion outside the capital and felt that he was a bit like Wei Shu.

That's why she had people strip Wei Shu's clothes off and record his features in order to investigate his identity.

This three-point resemblance may exist between ordinary people, but now that Wei Shu and the Imperial Noble Consort are having an affair, the relationship between Prince Xin and Wei Shu is questionable.

"I'll ask someone to investigate it later." Boya also understood that this matter was of great importance and he did not dare to be careless at all.

Si Yan picked up the wine jug and continued to pour himself wine. Boya couldn't help but hold down the wine jug.

"This wine has a strong aftereffect, why don't you drink a couple of glasses?" She never drank alcohol during meals before, but today it was like drinking water...

"Okay, then I won't drink it." Si Yan let go of his hand.

She drank nearly a pot of wine, but she still looked clear-headed and not drunk at all.

"Even though you were given an official title today, are you still in a bad mood?" Boya asked.

Boya couldn't tell anything unusual from Si Yan's expression and was just guessing.

Si Yan smiled slightly and stood up: "Okay, I'm in a good mood. A new official has three fires to start. Let me burn this cold winter."

After saying that, Si Yan went downstairs and got on the carriage.

She glanced around. Many people were looking at her in the night. Some were ordinary people curious, and some were shop owners who knew her. But she still noticed a few pairs of unfamiliar and sharp eyes...

Someone wanted to make her, a first-rank female official of Daxuan, not survive even one night?

Boya sent Si Yan to the carriage, then turned around and instructed A Fan, "Send out the hidden masters to protect Miss Si. No mistakes can be made."
