Inside the emperor's sleeping quarters in the palace

Beneath the gauze-draped dragon bed, clothes lay scattered haphazardly. On the bed, a man and a woman, breathing heavily, embraced each other tenderly.

It was none other than Emperor Gong Nanxian of the Dayong Dynasty, and the woman was Princess Gong Beige, Gong Nanxian's younger sister!

Gong Nanxian held Gong Beige's hand, gently stroking her hair, a slight smile playing on his lips:

"What's wrong with you today? Why are you rushing into the palace?"

Gong Beige suddenly sat up, clutching the blanket, looking aggrieved, and turned her back to him in a huff.

"You have the nerve to say that? Are you blaming me for suddenly showing up and catching you in the act?!"

Gong Nanxian looked at her with doting eyes and chuckled softly:

"Look, you're still so jealous. How can those women compare to you? They're just a comfort when I can't see you all the time."

Gong Beige slowly turned her head to look at him, her eyes filled with seductive charm:

"Are you telling the truth?"

Gong Nanxian suddenly reached out and pulled her back into his arms, smiling indulgently.

"Of course, Beige, you are my true love and my only choice for queen."

Gong Beige playfully pinched his waist before pouting and saying:

"That's more like it. I'll forgive you this time! But I still can't stand that little bitch!"

Gong Nanxian didn't care about the truth:

"If you're unhappy, then do whatever you want with it! You've done plenty of things over the years, haven't you? When have I ever interfered with you?"

Gong Beige hummed softly and coquettishly:

"you dare!"

Gong Nanxian smiled and hugged her even tighter:

"Yes, yes, I wouldn't dare, I wouldn't dare."

As if remembering something, he asked:

"Why are you rushing to the palace? What brings you here?"

Gong Beige's sweet smile suddenly vanished, replaced by a chilling coldness.

"The Sixteen Guards of Yanyun are indeed in the hands of that bitch Gong Qiuyan!"

Gong Nanxian's expression also darkened:

"Did you see clearly? Are you sure?"

Gong Beige nodded:

"Although she didn't admit it, I've seen the Sixteen Guards of Yanyun before, and I'm ninety percent certain that the man in black who appeared today is definitely him!"

Gong Nanxian released Gong Beige, sat up, picked up his clothes and put them on, his expression icy:

"Over the years, wouldn't it have been better to give her the chance and obediently stay by that sickly girl's side? Instead, she dared to release the Sixteen Guards of Yanyun. It seems we've really let her live too comfortably!"

Gong Beige, still clutching the blanket, sat up and leaned against Gong Nanxian's back, coldly snorting:

"I told you long ago, ignore what those old fogies say, just kill her. Otherwise, she'll always be a menace."

Gong Nanxian frowned:

"No rush. Let's confirm first whether the Sixteen Guards of Yanyun are in her hands before we talk. As long as Zhou Yunchen is half-dead, she can't cause any trouble."

Gong Beige stroked Gong Nanxian's hair and said coldly:

"However, I'm a little worried."

Gong Nanxian frowned and looked at her:

"What are you worried about? Didn't you say that the Gu your master cultivated was absolutely undetectable to others?"

Gong Beige nodded:

"That's for sure. Over the years, no matter how many famous doctors they've consulted, no one has been able to figure it out."

Gong Nanxian was puzzled:

"Then what are you worried about?"

Gong Beige originally wanted to tell him about Yu Shuyan being invited to treat Zhou Yunchen's illness.

But then she thought again, it wasn't certain whether Yu Shuyan could even see through the poison. She had already sent Wen Lang to kill Zhou Yunchen, so whether she could cure him or not, there would only be one outcome in the end.

That is, she, Yu Shuyan, caused Zhou Yunchen's death.

Thinking of all this, she simply smiled and shook her head:

"It's nothing. Anyway, Zhou Yunchen won't last much longer. We must hurry up and confirm that Gong Qiuyan is guilty of secretly harboring the Sixteen Guards of Yanyun, and kill her directly. Otherwise, she might do something reckless after Zhou Yunchen dies."

Gong Nanxian scoffed disdainfully:

"What waves can she possibly stir up?"

Gong Beige coquettishly said:

"Of course I know she can't pull anything out of her, but letting her keep jumping around is just disgusting, isn't it!"

Gong Nanxian thought for a moment, then said coldly:

"Go ahead and do it. Once you confirm that she has secretly harbored the Sixteen Guards of Yanyun, immediately seal off the Grand Princess's residence. Anyone who dares to resist will be killed without mercy."

A sinister glint flashed in Gong Beige's eyes:

"Don't worry, leave this to me. That bitch always calls herself the Grand Princess and is always trying to cause trouble. It's disgusting to look at her. This time, I'll make sure she never has the chance to cause trouble again."

Gong Nanxian nodded:

"I trust you to handle things. But remember, don't give anyone cause for gossip. There are still many old fogies in the court who are always thinking about that good-for-nothing Gong Mojue and are always looking for an opportunity to slander me."

Gong Beige hugged him tightly and snorted coldly:

"Brother, since that's the case, why don't we take care of Gong Qiuyan and Gong Mojue at once!"

Gong Nanxian frowned:

"Do you think I don't want to? It's just that those old fogies are always watching me. If I were to kill Gong Mojue for no reason, and it were spread around by word of mouth, I'm afraid those vassal kings would use it to rebuke me. The consequences would be unpredictable."

Gong Beige has a sharp eye:

"Hmph, just a piece of trash. There's no rush to deal with him. We'll always find a chance to kill him legitimately."

Gong Mojue nodded:

“A good-for-nothing is not a concern. What I am worried about now is that the things that Imperial Physician Wang took out back then have not been found yet.”

Gong Beige hesitated and said:

"Brother, so many years have passed. Whether that thing we talked about back then even exists is uncertain. Could it be that Father didn't have anything at all and gave it to him to take out? Besides, not long after he escaped, we wiped out his entire family and searched his mansion but couldn't find anything. Could it be that that thing never existed at all?"

Gong Nanxian shook his head:

"It's better to believe it exists than not. Didn't he have two daughters who ran away? We must find them and nip them in the bud. You know, that thing is related to whether my throne is secure."

Gong Beige rubbed against his back:

"Brother, don't worry. I've been having the Shadow Guards search for them. I believe we'll find their trail sooner or later."

Gong Nanxian grabbed her hand, turned around, and pulled her into his arms, holding her tightly.

"Bei Ge, it's so good to have you. I will love you to the bone for the rest of my life."

Gong Beige playfully slapped him and said with a smile:

"Of course I believe you. Don't worry, the experiment over there has made progress. Once I change my face, I can be your rightful empress!"

Gong Nanxian stroked her hair, his eyes deep and his voice ethereal:

"nature!"
