"So you're at your wit's end, and that's why you're plotting against Fei'er as well?"

"I just want to test whether Li Shu's luck can also protect the people around her."

"Oh, you have a very good excuse. You can blame everything on Li Shu's luck. It's obvious that you are not as skilled as her."

"The Emperor's people..."

When the words came to his lips, Lin Qi didn't dare to say the remaining three words "failed".

But Yin Su had no idea what she hadn't finished saying. He stared at her coldly for a moment, and when he spoke again, his tone became even more hostile. "After Fei'er goes to Fenglan, you can't blame Li Shu's luck again, right?"

Lin Qi hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, rest assured. I have already made arrangements with Feng Lan for a long time. Once Princess Feiyun arrives, I will definitely be able to..."

Once again, Lin Qi didn't finish his words.

She has recently become keenly aware of the change in Yin Su's attitude towards Ying Wan.

After all, Yin Feier is the princess that Yin Su has pampered for so many years.

Even though they had already agreed to let Yin Feier suffer from Feng Lan and then die in childbirth, she didn't dare to say it out loud.

Some people do things that they can do but you can't say.

But Yin Su said, "You have been deploying for a long time, but it doesn't mean that others have not deployed for a long time. I will send more people over."

"Your Majesty is wise! He previously said that once Li Shu and the Grand Princess's relationship becomes strong enough, he will take action against her. I wonder... how long will that be?"

"..."

Yin Su stroked the teacup in his hand and did not answer.

He has been sending male favorites to his aunt's house continuously over the years in order to force out the person behind his aunt.

Although there were already many of his people in my aunt's house, he had not yet taken direct action against my aunt because he was afraid of the imperial edict that my father had handed to my aunt before his death!

But after so many years, not only did he fail to force out the person behind his aunt, he also didn't find any information related to the imperial edict!

However, a male concubine he had sent to his aunt's house had previously passed a message to the palace, saying that he had discovered the location where his aunt had hidden an important item and would soon find out what was hidden there. But the next day, the male concubine died...

Thinking of this, Yin Su put down the teacup in his hand heavily, stood up and left Lin Qi's bedroom.

The person waiting outside Lin Qi's bedroom was not Eunuch Yuan who always accompanied Yin Su, but a secret guard.

When Yin Suxing reached the secret guard, he lowered his voice and asked, "Did the person we sent to the Grand Princess's residence bring back any news?"

"Yes. One of them claimed that he had fed the Grand Princess cakes and drinks infused with love poison three times while serving her, but the Grand Princess showed no reaction afterwards. Another claimed... he had fallen in love with the Grand Princess and wanted..."

"Tsk! They are all trash!"

Yin Su gritted his teeth and walked away.

Eunuch Yuan led his men to wait outside Jinxiu Palace.

As soon as Yin Su left, he stepped forward and reported, "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness the Crown Princess are staying in Fengyi Palace tonight."

Yin Su said nothing, got on the sedan chair and went to Fengyi Palace.

The simultaneous attack on Fei'er and Li Shu caused quite a stir. Although both of them were unharmed, when the prince and his wife sent Fei'er back to the palace, many ministers were already waiting in front of the palace gate, and the city defense camp and the imperial guards spontaneously went out to search the entire city.

Because the people who got into trouble were his most beloved Fei'er, and Li Shu, the person he once valued the most!

But those people said that they were mobilizing troops because of him, but in reality, that might not be the case!

Therefore, he cannot rashly attack the prince and his wife!

Clearly, no matter if it was the Crown Prince, the Empress, Fei'er, Li Shu, or even the entire court, they were all under his control. Yet, in just a few months, things had come to this point...

Should he let go of Wanwan sooner rather than later...

If he hadn't tied Li Shu to the Dingbei Marquis Mansion because of Wanwan, and if he hadn't been so hypocritical towards the Queen and Crown Prince Fei'er from the very beginning...

Hypocrisy...

Is it really insincere?

After returning to Fengyi Palace and going to Murong Hui's bedside, Yin Su was still pondering that point.

In Jinxiu Palace, Lin Qi was lying on the bed and calling Yin Ji a waste.

When her system calculated Yin Ji's future, it clearly said that he would rebel and even capture several cities in succession before being suppressed by Li Yunzhi and Ning Shuyang. Unexpectedly, she couldn't even catch a little Li Shu!

Not only could he not be caught, but he was also drugged and knocked down by Li Shu's men!

It was such a waste that she had gone through so much trouble to find a woman who looked very similar to Li Shu, and then had someone teach her the magic to send her to Yin Ji!

Thinking about how after that woman came to Yin Ji, although she managed to make Yin Ji lose his mind as she had expected, she was soon killed by Yin Ji in bed, she began to secretly curse that woman for being useless.

If that woman had lived a little longer and Yin Ji had paid more attention to her, it would have been impossible for Yin Ji to wait until Li Shu divorced Ning Jin before taking action against her after meeting Li Shu at the palace banquet after returning to Beijing!

If he had taken action against Li Shu earlier, the chances of success would have been greater. After all, Li Shu's luck had not yet recovered to its current level!

Damn it!

Fortunately, she is not the emperor.

She just wanted revenge.

Li Yunzhi will definitely be in a state of panic after losing Lin Zhi's body, and will act even more recklessly. All she has to do now is wait patiently!

*

The next day.

It was already 9:00 PM when Li Shu woke up.

Not only Yin Wanyu and Kong Sanniang had already arrived at her house.

Even the prince and his wife and Yin Feier arrived.

But they all gathered in the mourning hall and did not disturb her.

After she quickly washed and changed her clothes with the help of Qinghong Cuiwei, she hurried to the mourning hall without even having breakfast.

The mourning hall is located in the main hall.

Although she told Aunt Gui to just make simple arrangements, Aunt Gui did not listen to her and made detailed arrangements.

Li Shu was speechless when she entered.

Who would make such a grand funeral hall for someone who had been dead for more than ten years?

Besides, it was the middle of the night, and I had no idea where Aunt Gui got all the things for decorating the mourning hall!

But she didn't say anything. After kneeling down in her place, she turned around and asked Yin Hengyou and his wife who were standing to the side, "Is it okay for you to bring Fei'er to my place today?"

Yin Hengyou said: "It doesn't matter, I have arranged everything."

Li Shu didn't ask any more questions.

Yin Feier knelt beside her and asked, "Sister Ali, are you really going to bury your mother? Didn't Kong Sanniang and the others prepare an ice coffin for your mother a long time ago? What if you suddenly miss your mother in the future..."

Li Shu interrupted Yin Feier with a smile, "Mom is always in my heart, and she sometimes appears in my dreams."

Yin Feier pursed her lips, wanting to persuade her again but not knowing how.

If it were her, if she could keep her mother's body from decaying forever, she would definitely not be willing to bury her mother in the ground to be eaten by snakes, insects, rats and ants.

But Sister Ali is not her.

And Sister Ali also has her own ideas.

So, before she left, she hugged Li Shu and whispered, "If Mother never wakes up after I leave, Sister A-Li, can you ask Kong Sanniang and the others to lend the ice coffin to Mother? I can use it until I come back to see her."

"Of course, but you have to believe in the Queen. She will come back."

"Ah."

Yin Feier forced a smile, turned around and got into the carriage with Murong Yunchu.

After that, Yin Wanyu returned to her princess residence.

Kong Sanniang stayed there directly.

When Li Shu finally sat down to have breakfast, Lin Yuan came to her side and said, "Li Yunzhi and his two sons have been searching the city like crazy. They will probably find you soon, young lady."

Li Shu raised her eyebrows nonchalantly, glanced at the seat beside her and said, "Sit down and eat with me."

Lin Yuan then sat down next to her.

After Nanny Gui placed the bowl and chopsticks in front of him, he continued, "When I was accompanying the young lady to see the Grand Princess off, I smelled a hint of Gu on her. I want to go to the Grand Princess's mansion tonight to investigate."
