Huanzhu Time Travel: Yan Luo's Unbreakable Love in the Yong Dynasty

Gao Wuyong forced himself to remain calm and hastily took his leave. Watching his retreating figure, Xiao Yanzi said to Hongli, "Your Highness, Gao Wuyong will definitely not let this go. We must be careful of him secretly plotting against us."

Hongli nodded: "What my beloved consort says is absolutely right. I have already instructed Su Peisheng to keep a close eye on his every move, and I don't expect him to cause too much trouble."

At this moment, Fucha Fuheng approached and whispered, "Your Highness, Your Highness, I have received news that the Shadow Pavilion seems to be colluding with a high-ranking official in the court, but it has not yet been determined who it is."

Little Swallow exclaimed in surprise, "Lord Fuheng, what should we do? If a powerful official is backing us up, won't our situation be even more dangerous!"

Hongli's expression was grave: "We must not alert them to this matter; we must investigate secretly. Fuheng, do you have any leads?"

Fu Heng shook his head: "There are very few clues at the moment, but I will continue to investigate."

In a corner of the palace, Rong Momo secretly met with Gao Wuyong.

Rong Momo asked anxiously, "Eunuch Gao, we almost got caught today. Do you have a plan?"

Gao Wuyong wiped the sweat from his forehead: "Don't worry, Granny, I'll figure something out. Little Swallow and Hongli are getting more and more cunning, so we have to be careful."

Rong Momo snorted coldly: "Hmph! They won't ruin Her Majesty's plans. If I catch them red-handed, I'll make Little Swallow pay!"

At the Prince Heshuo's residence, although Hongzhou appeared calm on the surface, he was still troubled by the matter of Xiao Yanzi.

Seeing that he was absent-minded, Dilire Yao asked softly, "Your Highness, are you still thinking about Sister Xiao Yanzi?"

Hongzhou was taken aback and quickly said, "No, that's not true. I was just thinking about what happened in the palace today."

Dilire Yao frowned slightly: "Your Highness, you don't need to hide it from me. I know you still have feelings for her, but now that you are married to me, I hope Your Highness can let go of the past."

Hongzhou sighed: "Leyao, I will try to let go."

Xiao Yanzi and Hongli returned to Prince Bao's mansion to continue discussing countermeasures.

Little Swallow said, "Your Highness, I want to go to the library again and look around. Maybe I can find more clues about the murals in the Shadow Pavilion."

Hongli said worriedly, "My dear consort, the library is fraught with danger. You were spied on there last time. If you go there again, I fear you will meet with misfortune."

Little Swallow said firmly, "Your Highness, I am not afraid of danger in order to uncover the truth!"

Hongli pondered for a moment: "Then I will accompany you."

When they arrived at the library, they found the door locked.

Little Swallow frowned: "Your Highness, why is the door locked? Did someone do this on purpose?"

Hongli summoned his attendant: "Go and fetch the person who guards the library!"

The attendant obeyed and left. A short while later, the guard came running back, trembling with fear.

Hongli asked sternly, "Why is the library door locked?"

The guard knelt down and begged for mercy: "Your Highness, please forgive me. It was... it was Eunuch Gao who ordered it. I dared not disobey."

Xiao Yanzi said angrily, "Gao Wuyong is indeed problematic! Your Highness, we can't just let this go."

Hongli's eyes were icy: "I will settle accounts with him myself. However, we can't get into this library, so let's start from other places first."

They then went to General Zhao Hui, hoping to get some information from him about the possible connection between the frontier and the Shadow Pavilion.

Upon meeting General Zhao Hui, Hongli went straight to the point and asked, "General, do you know if the Shadow Pavilion is active on the frontier?"

General Zhao Hui respectfully replied, "Your Highness, I have heard that the Shadow Pavilion seems to be conducting some secret transactions on the frontier, but the specifics have not yet been ascertained. However, I have already increased the number of people patrolling, and I will report to Your Highness immediately if there is any news."

Little Swallow said urgently, "General, this matter concerns the peace of the palace. Please investigate it as soon as possible."

General Zhao Hui clasped his hands in a fist and said, "Your Highness, rest assured, I will do my utmost."

However, what they didn't know was that the Shadow Pavilion had already detected their actions and was secretly setting a trap to wipe them out in one fell swoop.

In a dark room, the leader of the Shadow Pavilion sneered, "Hongli and Xiaoyanzi, do you think you can easily uncover our secrets? Then wait to fall into my trap!"

On their way back to the mansion, Xiao Yanzi and Hongli sensed that the atmosphere was strange.

Little Swallow said warily, "Your Highness, I have a feeling that someone is watching us."

Hongli held her hand: "My beloved consort, do not be afraid, I am here."

That being said, danger is closing in step by step. Can they uncover the Shadow Pavilion's conspiracy and find a way out of the murky world of the court and the martial world? Can their love endure in this perilous environment? Everything remains uncertain. Only by relying on each other's trust and wisdom can they continue to move forward in this treacherous court intrigue, fearless and daring, charging towards the truth, writing their own legendary story, and waiting for a turning point in their destiny and the dawn of a new era.
