Reborn Empress: The World Originally Belonged to Her

"What do you mean? These officials in the court are planning to get rid of Shangguan Mufeng? Are you kidding me? Where did they get the audacity to plan to deal with Shangguan Mufeng?"

Xu Jiu was definitely in a very angry state at this time, and he never expected that these officials in the court would have such audacity.

Seeing Xu Jiu so angry, the palace maids around her hurriedly began to comfort her, after all, Xu Jiu was still alive at this moment, and if she were to...

"Your Majesty, please don't get angry here. What if something happens later? Your Majesty, please don't get too angry here."

Shangguan Tian'er must have been comforting Xu Jiu the whole time. Under their comforting words, Xu Jiu finally stopped acting like before.

Meanwhile, Xu Jiu was pondering what to do if these officials really disliked him.

"You don't need to worry too much. Besides, Shangguan Mufeng is also Princess's person, isn't he? Since he is Princess's person, who would dare to touch him? Moreover, everything is still with Princess, so you don't need to worry too much here."

She never imagined that Xu Jiu would be so deeply in love with Shangguan Mufeng.

Shangguan Tian'er then turned her attention to Xu Jiu, and kept thinking about what would be the best course of action in the next situation.

Then Shangguan Tian'er turned her attention to the palace maids and told them to leave. The maids, having heard Shangguan Tian'er's words, naturally left. After they had all left, Shangguan Tian'er went to Xu Jiu.

"There's something I want to tell you, sister. In the days to come, could you please try to control your emotions? In other words, don't let anyone see that you have any special feelings for Shangguan Mufeng."

Xu Jiu naturally understood Shangguan Tian'er's meaning, but for Xu Jiu, it was really difficult to contain all these feelings.

"There are some things I actually wanted to tell you, and that is..."

They must have been discussing this amongst themselves at that moment, trying to figure out what the best course of action would be.

Finally, they all discussed it again, but after a long time, they still couldn't come up with a solution.

"I really want to know what the most feasible thing to do next is. I've been thinking about it for a long time but I still can't think of a good solution. I think we could try to bribe all these officials. What do you think about that?"

They must have been chatting here for a while, and eventually they all felt that none of them would work. But which one to start with was a real headache.

After that, they pondered the matter and each of them had already chosen someone.

Then, at this moment, they immediately focused their attention on Li Mubai, a second-rank official, believing that this person was definitely different from others.

After all, this person is righteous and upright. If you were to tell this person about Shangguan Mufeng's recent experiences, perhaps this person...

"But if this person is upholding the law impartially, I still have a feeling that he won't stand with us, after all, for this person..."

Unexpectedly, Xu Jiu told Shangguan Tian'er, "Have you ever heard the saying, 'Seek help in this perilous situation'? I believe this person will definitely help us. Besides, this person certainly wouldn't want to see Shangguan Mufeng die like this, after all, Shangguan Mufeng can be considered a breath of fresh air in the court."

Xu Jiu wrote a letter here and sent someone to deliver it to Li Mubai.

Li Mubai, however, was a little confused at this moment, having no idea who had written it.

He then picked it up and examined it carefully, and at that moment he knew who had written the letter.

"My lord, why are you standing here alone in a daze? Has something happened? If so, why don't you just tell me and see if there's anything I can do to help you?"

Upon hearing this from the person next to him, Li Mubai immediately shook his head, indicating that nothing had happened.

He simply put the letter away and went into his study.

After going inside, I took it out and examined it carefully. I never expected that it was written by Xu Jiu.

He must have been thinking about what the best course of action would be next.

He then decided to go find Qin Yu, but he felt that he and Qin Yu had never had any contact, and that it might be a little inappropriate to suddenly go find Qin Yu now.

Moreover, it has been recently heard that Qin Yu is not even in this princess's residence. Even if one were to go to Qin Yu's residence now, there is no guarantee that one would be able to see her.

"Hasn't Her Highness the Princess returned yet?"

Upon arriving outside, he naturally inquired with his subordinates, who informed Li Mubai that Qin Yu had indeed not yet returned.

He must have felt a little unbelievable at this moment. He thought Qin Yu had already returned, but Qin Yu still hadn't returned.

If that's the case, then he won't be able to see Qin Yu at this time.

In the end, he decided to go and meet him. After all, Shangguan Mufeng had been an official in the court for so long, and it seemed that there hadn't been much interaction between him and Shangguan Mufeng.

However, Shangguan Mufeng was indeed different from the other officials, and before this, he had generally agreed with Shangguan Mufeng's views.

He then arrived at Shangguan Mufeng's residence, and unexpectedly saw Shangguan Nantian there.
