However, her standards are very high. If she doesn't like a man, she won't even look at him even if he offers her a large sum of gold, silver, and treasures.

But such a noble and beautiful woman admired Chu Jiangtian's talent very much. Chu Jiangtian even didn't need to pay and could spend the night in her room.

Later, Chu Jiangtian rebelled and became emperor, and she entered the harem and became a concubine.

I just don’t know whether Chunfeng Tower was still the base of enemy spies at that time?

Xie Ying looked silently in the direction of the Ministry of Justice, feeling worried.

Although she didn't know the palace maids Xu Maochun mentioned, she always felt uneasy.

Since Xu Maochun mentioned the names of these people, they will definitely be arrested and interrogated.

I don’t know if anyone will be unable to endure the torture and will make false accusations and slander my uncle.

Soon, the remaining wood-type energy in the seed was consumed, and Xie Ying could no longer hear any sound.

She sighed inwardly and began to think about her next strategy.

She can't enter the palace now and has no way of knowing the news inside the palace, but there is someone who can.

But how can she get the eldest princess into the palace?

Xie Ying glanced secretly at the eldest princess, then looked at Situ Yuan.

She couldn't speak now, and it would be impossible to tell the princess directly.

I can only ask this fellow villager for help.

……

The princess did not stay outside for long, but went straight back to the princess's residence by car. She just asked people to pay attention to any unexpected movements and report them in time.

Because Xie Ying stayed by her side, she had an advantage and was able to tap into the eldest princess's intelligence network.

Sure enough, the people sent by the princess quickly brought back the news she wanted to know -

The Black Kirin Guards rushed out, surrounded Chunfeng Tower, and were arresting people.

Xie Ying took a deep breath, suspecting that someone was also being arrested in the palace.

She had to find an opportunity to talk to Situ Yuan and ask him to help her get some information.

Unexpectedly, just as she was thinking about it, she heard Situ Yuan ask the princess in confusion: "Mother, what is this Chunfeng Tower? Why are the Black Qilin Guards arresting people?"

The eldest princess immediately frowned: "Yuan'er, remember, this Chunfeng Tower is not a good place. Don't mention it again!"

Situ Yuan: “…”

He continued to play dumb: "Then the Black Qilin Guards arrested people because they were all bad guys?"

The eldest princess immediately said, "That's right! Those kinds of places are full of bad people. You are not allowed to go there anymore. Remember?"

Situ Yuan: “…”

He didn't know if he was hit, and after a moment of silence, he asked again, "Mother, that Xu Maochun said before that he knew the enemy's spies' base in the capital. Those Black Qilin Guards actually captured enemy spies, right?"

The eldest princess looked at him in surprise: "You actually remember?"

"Of course I remember! He also said that those enemy spies were connected to people in the palace. Mother, do people in the palace also get arrested?"

The eldest princess frowned and said after a long while, "Yuan'er, it's not your place to ask about matters in the palace."

Situ Yuan said, "But I'm afraid. If those people are caught, will they tell the truth? What if they say that mother is also related to the enemy's spies?"

The eldest princess was speechless for a moment: "You know this? Who told you this?"

She felt a chill in her heart when she thought of the possibility that she was being wrongly accused. However, she shook her head when she thought of the Empress Dowager and Emperor Taihe in the palace.

No, she is the Queen Mother's biological daughter and His Majesty's sister. Even if those people make random accusations, they dare not throw dirty water on her.

She said, "Okay, stop imagining that. Just play with your sister and take care of yourself first. You, a little kid, don't need to worry about these adult matters."

Situ Yuan frowned in dissatisfaction: "I'm almost six years old, I'm not a little kid anymore!"

The princess was amused by him: "Yes, yes, you are a young master. In a dozen years, you will be able to marry, have children, and start a family!"

Situ Yuan: “…”
