Shen Miao involuntarily looked up at the window and saw that the window door was tightly shut. Xie Jing Xing once said that in the future there was no need to open the window and he would be able to come but these few days Xie Jing Xing did not appear. Shen Miao draped her outer clothes and walked to the window before opening it. It was the cold night wind outside and Shen Miao tightened her clothes.
Suddenly a figure flashed in front of her as Cong Yang stood up from under the wall and looked at Shen Miao before asking, "Young Lady is looking for Master?"
Shen Miao was caught off guard and jumped in shock. She patted her chest in annoyance and said unhappily, "No."
Cong Yang did not seem to have heard Shen Miao's words and continued speaking in a deadpan manner, "Master is currently not in the Ding capital so Young Lady need not wait for him here."
"I am not waiting for him." Shen Miao emphasized, "I am just taking a breather."
Cong Yang did not speak and Shen Miao thought of something and asked, "Cong Yang, if I enter the Palace, can you enter together?"
When Cong Yang heard this, he was stunned for a moment. Then, he blushed and said, "This subordinate is not from the palace and is not familiar with the layout of the palace. If I follow Miss in, there will be no place to hide and I am not confident that I will not be discovered."
Shen Miao's eyes drooped down. Since Cong Yang did not have the confidence to not be discovered by others, then forget about it. He thought about it again. No matter what the Imperial Family was up to, they would not do it openly in the Palace. After all, Luo Xue Yan was there. Thinking of this, he felt relieved and said, "It's fine now."
"If Young Lady has anything to say, you can tell this subordinate and this subordinate will bring the letter to Master." Cong Yang looked at Shen Miao and spoke to himself.
Shen Miao closed the window with a "pa" sound. Like subordinates like masters, they didn't listen to others at all!
At the other end, in the residence of Prince Rui, Gao Yang and Ji Yu Shu were studying a map. There were many densely marked places on the map and if one looked carefully, one could clearly see that it was a military defence map.
The guard outside came to report, "Gao Daren, Young Master Ji, Young Lady Shen will enter the Palace tomorrow. Do you want to bring a letter to His Highness?"
"Enter the Palace?" Ji Yu Shu asked, "What matter is there?"
The guard shook his head.
Ji Yu Shu sighed, "These few days one was busy with this drawing and did not help Third Older Brother to look after Shen Young Lady. It would be bad if Third Older Brother returns, one would not know anything and both you and I will be out of luck. Hey. "He nudged Gao Yang." You have people in the palace. Has anything happened recently? "
"It's nothing." Gao Yang thought for a moment and said, "Don't bring it into the letter yet. He's busy with work and it's not good to be distracted. Since there's no news from Cong Yang, it shouldn't be too serious. If something really happened, we'll just have to stop it. "
The guard received the order and left.
Ji Yu Shu looked at Gao Yang, "Why do I feel that your method is not appropriate?"
"What's wrong with it?" Gao Yang said impatiently, "Look at the picture!"
Ji Yu Shu muttered, "Anyway if anything happens and Third Older Brother asks why I did not inform in time, I will just say that it was you who instructed …"
…
On the second day, Shen Miao followed Luo Xue Yan into the Palace.
Every time he entered the palace, something would happen. Luo Xue Yan was somewhat vigilant but Shen Miao was used to it. Because she already knew that the Tian family did not have good intentions, it made her less nervous.
The palace maids brought them directly to Kun Ning Palace.
When they reached Kun Ning Palace, the first thing they saw was the Empress who was sitting on the main seat. The concubine sitting beside the Empress had a gentle smile and her clothes were elegant but simple. It was Consort Dong Shu.
The Empress and Consort Dong Shu? Shen Miao's heart suddenly jumped up.
The Empress was the birth mother of the Crown Prince and had a conforming husband and wife relationship with Emperor Wen Hui. But the Empress herself most likely came from a wealthy family and had a smooth journey. At the current stage, she was wholeheartedly focused on the Crown Prince's body and had no heart to fight for power in the Inner Palace. It was said that she was swift and decisive but at the end she could not win against Consort Dong Shu who was the most inconspicuous.
