The queen is crazy and spoiled, and the tyrant bows to her

Xie Zhiyan's body stiffened and he was speechless for a moment.

He clearly felt that Jiang Wantang's attitude towards him had returned to the time when they first met, cold and distant.

What a cold-blooded fox he is. Not only did he take advantage of me and leave without looking back, but he also turned against me without mercy.

She is the only one in the world who dares to use him so blatantly and then kick him away.

Seeing that he didn't say anything, Jiang Wantang was about to leave.

Xie Zhiyan finally spoke: "The Dali Temple has already found some clues about that Imperial Physician Lin. Miss Jiang, don't you want to know?"

As he expected, Jiang Wantang stopped.

She looked at Xie Zhiyan without saying anything, obviously waiting for him to continue.

Xie Zhiyan looked at her realistic expression and laughed dumbly. He continued, "As Wang Liu said, Imperial Physician Lin did leave the capital a month before Concubine Yu gave birth, and luckily escaped the ordeal."

"According to the Dali Temple's investigation, Imperial Physician Lin's hometown is near Jiangnan. I will set off tonight and go to Jiangnan in person."

Jiang Wantang was stunned for a moment, then asked in surprise, "The Dali Temple has a large staff, and there are many matters to attend to in the capital. Why are you going there in person?"

"Besides, leaving Beijing at this time is no joke. Once you leave..."

Xie Zhiyan smiled, with a hint of amusement in his eyes and a faint smile on the corner of his mouth: "Are you worried about me?"

"Don't be so self-indulgent." Jiang Wantang looked at him coldly and spoke in a chilling tone.

"If you die, I will lose a capable helper."

Tsk, what a cold-blooded and heartless woman.

Xie Zhiyan smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'm going to be tough."

Then, he stopped joking and said in a serious tone, "This Imperial Doctor Lin might be the only one who knows about what happened back then."

"The Qi family has been very active recently, and it seems they are searching for someone."

"So, to avoid any further complications, I must go there in person as soon as possible."

"I came to the palace today to tell you not to act rashly and wait for my news."

"That's all I have to say."

"gone."

After saying that, he turned around and left.

Although he downplayed it, Jiang Wantang knew that leaving Beijing would be fraught with danger.

There are many people who want to kill him, but it is difficult to take action in the capital.

Jiang Wantang was silent for a moment before chasing after him: "Thank you Zhiyan!"

Xie Zhiyan paused and did not look back.

"Have a nice trip, waiting for your good news..."

Xie Zhiyan smiled and said word by word: "Definitely."

After saying that, he waved his hand behind him as a goodbye gesture and strode away.

When he reached the gate of Changle Palace, his figure disappeared into the night.

Jiang Wantang stood in the yard and watched him leave. She couldn't describe her feelings, but she felt a little guilty.

He knew that she was just using him, but he still took the risk and gave it his all.

At this time, a figure outside Changle Palace left stealthily and went to Zhaoyang Palace under the cover of night.

In Zhaoyang Palace, Concubine Jia was lying lazily on the beauty couch, while two palace maids were massaging her legs and shoulders.

Then she suddenly stood up and looked at the little palace maid kneeling on the ground, and asked in surprise, "You said you saw a black man leaving the gate of Changle Palace?"

The young palace maid nodded and said, "I saw it with my own eyes, it is absolutely true."

Concubine Jia frowned and asked, "Did you see clearly who that man is and what he looks like?"

This Concubine Jiang is so bold that she actually dares to meet a man outside the palace.

If His Majesty knew about this, she would surely die.

But who is this man who is having a secret meeting?

Her backer?

Or is it that she couldn't stand the loneliness after falling out of favor and just found a random man?

The little palace maid continued, "I'm too far away to see clearly."

"And that black figure disappeared in a flash. I think he knows some Kung Fu."

As she spoke, the young palace maid clenched her sleeves and raised her hands to gesture in the air: "I saw that figure, it was tall and slender, and I estimated that it was about nine feet tall."

Oh, it seems that Concubine Jiang was secretly meeting her lover in the palace in the middle of the night.

There was a hint of smile in Concubine Jia's eyes. She picked up the teacup beside her and took a sip. She felt that the tea had become particularly sweet.

She laughed and taunted, "It seems that our Concubine Jiang is really a restless person."

The young palace maid asked, "Does this servant still need to keep a close watch in Changle Palace?"

"Keep a close eye on her, don't let anyone notice." Concubine Jia took off a gold and jade bracelet from her hand and placed it in the hand of the young palace maid, saying, "She must have done this more than once. Keep a close eye on her and make sure you find out who that man is."

How can a person who has an affair be willing to be lonely after having fun?

The little palace maid tightly grasped the jade bracelet on her hand, bent over the ground and said, "This servant understands. Thank you for the reward, Your Majesty."

Concubine Jia waved her hand and asked her to go back and keep an eye on it.

Outside the palace wall, Zhang Long and Zhao Hu were waiting on horseback under a big tree.

Zhao Hu looked at the towering palace walls in front of him and asked in confusion, "Hey, you said our master has been in there for so long, why hasn't he come out yet?"

"What on earth are you going to do? You're in such a hurry and yet you have to climb over the wall to get in."

Zhao Long looked in the direction of the harem and did not answer.

After a long while, Xie Zhiyan appeared.

The two of them hurried forward to meet him.

Zhao Hu asked in confusion, "Sir, why did you take so long to come out?"

Xie Zhiyan didn't answer, and said calmly: "Let's go."

After saying that, he jumped onto the horse.

Zhang Long stood aside and said worriedly, "Sir, how about I go with you?"

Zhao Hu is brave but not wise, and he is really worried about the dangers lurking on this journey.

Xie Zhiyan glanced at him, his deep eyes filled with an incomprehensible depth.

He said, "Only if you stay in Beijing can I leave with peace of mind."

"After I leave, please have your spies report any important events that occur in the capital to me promptly."

"If Second Miss Jiang needs anything, you must help her with all your strength and not slack off in the slightest."

Zhang Long said seriously: "Yes."

Xie Zhiyan's eyes were serious and earnest: "I am going on a trip this time and my return date is uncertain. I entrust all matters in the capital to you."

Zhang Long quickly bowed and replied, "Don't worry, sir. I will follow your instructions and will definitely fulfill my mission."

Xie Zhiyan nodded slightly, took one last look in the direction of the imperial palace, and waved the reins. The horse under him let out a loud neigh, raised its hooves, and galloped towards the city gate.

The black cloak rustled in the night wind, and the outline of the capital city grew farther and farther behind him, gradually blurring...

The next day, Jiang Wantang went to the imperial study as usual to serve Ji Wuyuan personally.

Ji Wuyuan looked at her, his voice lazy and clear, with a hint of smile: "You should have known that your brother Jiang Huaizhou has been reinstated and returned to the Ministry of Justice."

"Not only that, I also made an exception and promoted him to the rank of Fifth Rank Doctor of the Ministry of Justice."

The fifth-rank doctor of the Ministry of Justice is below the vice-minister of the Ministry of Justice, which is already an extremely high position.

Jiang Wantang blinked, and then a look of surprise flashed in her eyes. She quickly bowed and saluted: "Your Majesty, I thank you..."

Ji Wuyuan smiled, but the meaning of his smile was unclear: "Oh? Then what thank you gift does my beloved concubine plan to prepare for me?"

"I can't be dismissed with just a bowl of soup."

Jiang Wantang pursed her lips and thought to herself: This dog tyrant really won't suffer any loss.

Her peach blossom eyes curved into a beautiful arc, her thin lips slightly raised, her eyes bright and charming, and her smile was very charming: "Then what thank you gift would you like, Your Majesty?"

The pink and white chiffon dress, the bright red lips, and the bright smile between her eyebrows are captivating, yet spotlessly clean.

Ji Wuyuan's deep eyes suddenly dimmed a little.

He hooked his finger at Jiang Wantang, and his low, hoarse voice was very beckoning: "Come here."
