After her mind was read, the spoiled brat became the darling of the whole group.

The Chu Emperor looked at Jun Lanjin with suspicion and asked, "Does Zhiheng have any plans?"

Jun Lanjin did not reveal his plan, but instead sent someone to bring Ximen Zhu in.

"Your Majesty should focus on curing the poison from your body. In addition, please pay close attention to the people around you."

After saying that, Jun Lanjin turned and left.

Soon, the news of Prince Jin's release shocked everyone in the court.

"what happened?"

"Why has Your Majesty released Prince Jin again?"

"Alas, it's all because Prince Jin has so much power. He has 100,000 troops under his command. If His Majesty doesn't release Prince Jin, he might just attack Shengjing."

The court officials sighed in dismay.

However, when Yin Ruyu received this news in the inner palace, she almost dropped the cup in her hand.

Yin Ruyu looked at the maid beside her in disbelief: "You mean Prince Jin has been released?"

"Isn't the Emperor wary of Prince Jin? How could he release him so easily?"

The maid whispered, "The master sent word that the emperor had secretly ordered his men to divide the power in Prince Jin's hands, but although Prince Jin is in the cold palace, his men are not to be underestimated."

"The officials sent by the emperor couldn't persuade Prince Jin's men, and they couldn't reclaim their power. Furthermore, although the lord, together with other ministers, impeached Prince Jin and his men, —"

The maid paused at this point.

"But?" Yin Ruyu frowned.

The maid hesitated and said, "The people under Prince Jin are very arrogant. Although they have done things that are insubordinate to their superiors, they are not doing anything that is morally reprehensible. At most, they just don't take the ministers in the court seriously."

In summary: Our prince made a mistake? So what?

Yin Ruyu: "..."

No wonder Prince Jin is so arrogant in the court. With such a group of subordinates, how could he not be arrogant?

"So, Your Majesty has released Prince Jin?"

The maid hesitated for a moment, then glanced at Yin Ruyu and said, "Yes, after all, the people under Prince Jin are pressuring us hard. If we stop reporting for duty, many things will be impossible to do."

This is why the emperor showed weakness in front of Jun Lanjin.

Aside from being poisoned, there was simply nothing they could do about Jun Lanjin.

Ultimately, regardless of whether Jun Lanjin is a descendant of the Chu Emperor or not, at this moment he can only be a descendant of the Chu Emperor.

Yin Ruyu fell silent.

She ran her fingertips along the beaded bracelet on her wrist, her eyes shining.

If that's the case, when will her grand plan be completed?

As long as Prince Jin remains in power, the Jun family will also be unable to fall.

As long as Prince Jin exists, they will have no way to completely seize power.

After hesitating for a long time, Yin Ruyu looked at the maid and said, "Go, contact the Seventh Prince and tell him to come to me."

"Yes."

The maidservant left.

This news naturally reached Luo Hanfeng's ears as well.

Upon learning that Jun Lanjin had come out so easily, Luo Hanfeng's expression turned extremely cold.

He couldn't wait any longer.

The plan needs to be implemented as soon as possible.

Luo Hanfeng went to the Chu Emperor's palace.

The Chu Emperor, dressed in his dragon robe, looked down at Luo Hanfeng kneeling on the ground and asked, "How are things going with the tasks I asked you to do?"

Luo Hanfeng said, "Father, as I expected, Medicine King Valley is unwilling to emerge from the world. They said that if Your Majesty wants to be treated, then you should go there in person to treat him."

"That's unreasonable!"

The Emperor of Chu was furious.

He slammed his hand on the table, his anger reaching its peak, and the Chu Emperor coughed several times.

He clenched his fist and pressed it to his lips. After thinking for a moment, he looked at Luo Hanfeng and said, "Now that Prince Jin has come out, he will certainly not let you cause trouble for Medicine King Valley. You should put this matter aside for now."

Luo Hanfeng's eyes flickered slightly as he listened to the sound of Emperor Chu coughing.

He said, "Father, although I have not been able to find the divine physician from Medicine King Valley, I still have someone by my side who can help you stay young."

"Oh?" A glint flashed in the eyes of the Chu Emperor.

He looked at Luo Hanfeng with eager eyes.

Luo Hanfeng lowered his head and said, "The Holy Son of Miao Jiang."

"Miao territory?" The Chu Emperor frowned.

Luo Hanfeng explained, "The Miao region is known for its Gu magic. Gu magic is mysterious and wondrous, capable of making lovers who don't love each other love each other forever..."

At this point, Luo Hanfeng suddenly paused.

A love potion?

If he hadn't spoken to the Chu Emperor about this today, he wouldn't have even realized that among the Gu arts of Miao territory, there were also love Gu.

If this poison could be administered to Xie Xing...

Luo Hanfeng's originally dark eyes suddenly lit up like light bulbs.

"Hmm?" Emperor Chu waited for Luo Hanfeng to continue, but seeing that he remained silent, he frowned. "There are such wondrous things?"

Luo Hanfeng continued, "Yes, this Miao holy son was saved by your son. He knows a great deal of Gu techniques. What does Father think?"

The Chu Emperor fell into deep thought.

He was naturally curious about this Gu technique.

However, Jun Lanjin had just sent Ximen Zhu to treat him and told him not to trust anyone easily.

Then, Luo Hanfeng brought him a holy son from Miao territory.

Is the so-called Gu technique really that powerful?

The Chu emperor hesitated.

His gaze fell on Luo Hanfeng below. This son always looked down at him with meek and obedient eyes, and he couldn't see any ambition in him. This was also the reason why Emperor Chu trusted Luo Hanfeng so much.

Can……

The Emperor of Chu thought for a moment and then said, "Bring the person here for me to see. I want to see with my own eyes whether this so-called Holy Son truly has such abilities."

"Yes."

Luo Hanfeng lowered his head and went downstairs.

He didn't ask any more questions, but waited until he left the emperor's palace. Looking at the many guards outside the palace, a cold glint flashed in his eyes.

He soon arrived at the Duke of Zhou's mansion.

Xie Mingzhu's current identity was arranged by Wen Yan. By using her identity as the daughter of the Duke of Zhou, and since Xie Mingzhu no longer had any pretext of being a real or fake heiress, and no one was holding her back, Xie Mingzhu was able to thrive in the circle of noble ladies.

In a short time, they gathered a lot of information.

When Xie Mingzhu learned that Luo Hanfeng had come to find her, her eyes lit up. She immediately dismissed everyone and threw herself into Luo Hanfeng's arms.

"Hanfeng! You've finally come to see me!"

Luo Hanfeng pursed his lips, caught Xie Mingzhu, and then subtly straightened her up, creating some distance between them.

He didn't immediately reveal the purpose of his visit, but instead looked at Xie Mingzhu gently and asked, "How have you been at the Duke's mansion lately?"

Xie Mingzhu smiled slightly: "Of course it's good. My status as a daughter of the Duke's mansion has allowed me to reconcile my relationship with these noble ladies in Shengjing."

"Therefore, I also gathered a lot of information."

As she spoke, Xie Mingzhu tugged at Luo Hanfeng's sleeve and said, "Hanfeng, I have a favor to ask of you."

Luo Hanfeng looked at Xie Mingzhu with his light brown eyes: "Mingzhu, you can speak frankly about what's wrong. I will do whatever it takes for you."

After that brush with death, Xie Mingzhu never doubted Luo Hanfeng's feelings for her.

She felt that anyone would be moved by her unwavering loyalty to Luo Hanfeng for so long.

However, to her surprise, Luo Hanfeng saw through her impure intentions from the very beginning.
