The officials were seen discussing among themselves.

Just then, the Minister of War happened to pass by and heard their discussion; his face turned gloomy.

"Have I ever told you all not to say such a thing behind someone's back?"

They suddenly heard what the Minister of War said and turned to look at him.

They were startled for a moment, for the Minister of War held a much higher position than them.

If what they say next angers the Minister of War, they will ultimately be the ones who suffer.

The Minister of War coldly looked at the people around him.

"I never imagined that my former friend would have such a sharp tongue. It truly chills my heart."

Upon hearing the Minister of War's words, the third-rank official was filled with remorse.

An official hurriedly walked up to the Minister of War.

"Your Excellency, I beg you to forgive my petty mistake and not hold it against me."

"Humph."

The Minister of War snorted coldly and then gave a reminder to the ministers.

"If I hear anything else in the future, don't blame me for being impolite."

After the Minister of War left, the officials gathered here to discuss the matter.

"He's just a Minister of War, he doesn't have any real power, why is he being so arrogant here?"

Unexpectedly, as soon as one official finished speaking, another official covered his mouth.

"Do you know that walls have ears? If the Minister of War were to overhear these words, we would be the ones in trouble, wouldn't we? We'd better leave the palace as soon as possible."

However, some people were puzzled at this time, wondering what the Minister of War was doing in the palace at this time.

The Minister of War then went directly to Qin Yanling.

"Greetings, Your Majesty! Long live the Emperor!"

Qin Yanling suddenly saw the Minister of War and, somewhat puzzled, dismissed the people around him.

"Has the Minister arrived here? Has something happened?"

"I have come here to inform Your Majesty that I sent someone to the Nine Gates Pass, and the scout reported that the envoys from the neighboring country have arrived in the capital, but they have been slow to pay their respects to Your Majesty. I wonder how Your Majesty intends to deal with them."

Qin Yanling never expected that the Minister of War would actually...

Naturally, we need to find a way to suppress this matter.

Qin Yanling then informed the Minister of War.

"Don't worry, I have my own plans. I have already sent people to welcome you today."

For some reason, the Minister of War always felt that this emperor seemed...

Well, the thoughts of a monarch are always hard to fathom.

He was just a minor official, and if he were to try to guess Qin Yanling's thoughts now, he would probably be executed along with his entire family if he guessed wrong.

As the saying goes, if the ruler commands the subject to die, the subject has no choice but to die.

"Your Majesty, I simply wish to report these matters to you."

Now that the matter has been reported, the Minister of War naturally took his leave.

Qin Yanling is now quite satisfied with the Minister of War.

Initially, I did have some reservations about this Minister of War.

However, the current Minister of War is a rather clever man who can read the room.

The Minister of War then came to this place.

It looks like I'll have to find some time to go and find the princess.

After they all left, Qin Yanling sent someone to invite the Prime Minister into the palace.

When the Prime Minister entered the palace, he naturally bowed respectfully to Qin Yanling.

The two chatted for a while longer.

Qin Yu was staying in the princess's residence, so she naturally heard someone come to report.

"Your Highness, the Minister of War went to the palace to see His Majesty today."

Then Mo Yun told Qin Yu that in addition to the Minister of War, there was also the Prime Minister.

"They are entering the palace one after another, which makes me quite curious."

Afterwards, Qin Yu decided to go to the palace in person, and judging by the time, the Prime Minister should still be there.

"Let's set off for the palace."

Mo Yun followed Qin Yu, while Kong Hong and Lin Muxuan heard that Qin Yu was going to the palace.

Both of them were extremely puzzled, after all, why would the princess go to the palace for no reason?

On this trip to the palace, Qin Yu only brought two people with her. One of them was Chunfeng, and the other was Moyun.

The jade bamboo that remained was kept in the princess's residence until Qin Yu left.

Lin Muxuan and Kong Hong then went to find Yuzhu.

"Why would Her Highness go to the palace out of the blue?"

"His Highness's trip to the palace is naturally due to his own reasons, why do you need to ask so many questions here?"

Yu Zhu remained wary of the relationship between the two.

After all, no one knows whether these two are truly loyal to the prince.

If the two of them are just being hypocritical.

This is extremely inappropriate for Qin Yu.

Moreover, for Yuzhu, Yuzhu and Chunfeng had been by the princess's side for many years, and the princess had long since developed feelings of kinship with them.

They all naturally hoped that Her Highness the Princess would be safe and sound.

I don't want anything to happen to Her Highness the Princess.

Kong Hong and Lin Muxuan could clearly sense that the jade bamboo harbored deep hostility towards them.

Although I don't know why I feel such deep hostility towards them, there must be some reason.

The two had no choice but to leave.

The two arrived at their courtyard and began to discuss.

"For some reason, I suddenly feel that this Jade Bamboo Maiden seems to have feelings for the two of us..."

Before Kong Hong could finish speaking, Lin Muxuan told him directly.

"I thought you never had such thoughts, but I didn't expect even you to have them."

They were indeed a bit surprised. They hadn't done anything wrong, so why were they being targeted by hostility?

The more he thought about it, the more puzzled he became.

"Well, it's understandable that we're not welcomed here since we've only just arrived at the princess's residence."

When the two of them meet, won't they both dislike each other? How come they're chatting here now?

Yuan Jie happened to be passing by and overheard the two talking. He hid in the shadows to observe.

If you could sense a change in the relationship between these two people at that very moment.

They decided to wait until the princess returned to tell her about the two of them.

I imagine Her Highness can finally breathe a sigh of relief now.

After all, Her Highness the Princess hoped that the two of them could get along harmoniously.

Otherwise, the princess's residence would definitely be thrown into chaos.

The two men noticed someone lurking in the shadows, and their expressions turned cold.
