"Miss!"

  Yan Xijun had not yet approached the Ganquan Palace when he heard a joyful exclamation, looked up and saw several people standing at the gate of the palace, among whom was Wenqin who had not been seen for several months.

  "Wen Qin," Yan Xijun was also very happy, feeling especially joyful, finally seeing Wen Qin, this little girl had grown up with her since childhood, and seeing her felt particularly close.

  "Miss, youve finally come back! Wenqin has missed you so much." Wenqin couldnt help but exclaim out loud as soon as she saw her own miss.

  Xue Rong followed behind, frowning and scolding in a low voice: "Wen Qin, dont you understand the rules yet? You cant call her Miss anymore, you should call her Master or Your Ladyship."

  Xuē Róng jiě... (sister Snow Container...)

  Xue Rong said bluntly: "The rules of the palace must be followed, havent you learned that yet?"

  "All right, dont mention her again. Ill teach her a lesson later." Yan Xijun spoke up for Wenqin from the side, then also said to Wenqin: "Later on, you must be careful with your words and follow Yuxiangs instructions, call me Master!"

  "Yes, Master." Wen Qin replied obediently.

  "Who are these two...?" Yan Xijun looked at the other two young people standing at the door, and turned to Xue Rong with a puzzled gaze.

  Xue Rong smiled slightly: "These are the eunuchs and palace maids specially sent by Her Majesty to serve you, from now on they will follow you."

  "Xiao Dong, Ive heard the news, hurry up and pay your respects to our new master!" Xue Rong said with a wave of her hand to the two of them.

  The man and woman immediately knelt down and paid their respects: "Xiao Dong, we have heard of your masters greatness. May our master be blessed with good fortune."

  "Alright, all of you get up!" Yan Xijun waved her hand, and it seemed that these attendants were also arranged by her sister. It appeared that among these followers, only Wenqin was her own person.

  "Your Majesty, these people are all serving you. If theres anything improper, you can tell me and Ill report it to the Empress."

  "Alright, you can go back now." Yan Xijun nodded and suddenly seemed to remember something, then said: "Ah, right, Im not lacking in people to take care of me now, so you can take that Snow Lian palace maid back with you."

  "How can that be? The princess has ordered it, and Xue Lian will take care of you in the future. She is yours now. Once the princess finishes speaking, she will let her return to your side."

  "Your Majesty, the Empress has already taken action. According to your will, how should we stop her behavior?" The bright candlelight shone on Chu Yixuans handsome face, which was full of waves, making Luo Zhong unable to guess his thoughts for a moment, and he couldnt make up his mind either.

  "Whats her reaction today?" Chu Yixuan asked, flipping through a book in his hand without raising his head.

  "Ah......!" Luo Zhong didnt react for a moment, who was the her his master was referring to?

  "Yan familys fourth daughter, the one who participated in the selection." Chu Yixuan explained slowly, as if there were eyes behind his head, but his gaze still didnt leave the book.

  Lu Zhong hastily walked closer, looked around at the situation, and then carefully reported: "This servant saw Miss Yan Si receive the edict, seemingly with a discontented heart, as if she was unwilling..."

  "Oh, she really is like that?" Chu Yixuan put down the book in his hand, slightly surprised, seemingly puzzled by her attitude.

  "Im just guessing, maybe I only saw her appearance." Luo Zhong didnt dare to make a guarantee either. After all, what Miss Yan Si did today was rare, and which woman in the world wouldnt want to be a concubine and exhaust their mind to become the masters woman?

  The Yan family is not a thrifty lamp, and since they have already arranged for the woman to enter the palace, it means they must have an ulterior motive.

  "Hmph, the women of the Yan family are not simple!" Chu Yixuan snorted softly and coldly smiled: "However, I am not someone who can be easily fooled. I suddenly want to see what Empress Yan is up to."

  "That... Your Majesty, what do you plan to do?" Luo Zhong flew a glance at the Emperors face, which was as cold as ice, and felt a chill run down his spine. He couldnt help but feel sorry for Empress Yan, who should be setting an example for the world with her noble character, yet she had to resort to doing something shady behind the Emperors back. The Emperor detested it when people hid things from him and did things that were not decent.

  Yan seems to have stepped on a tigers tail now, looks like shell be having some bad days ahead.

  "Yan Hou, since you want to do something, someone has to make a sacrifice, and the person who makes the sacrifice must be from your Yan family. Im bored anyway, so why not just go along with it and play along with her?" Chu Yixuan seemed to be talking about a fun game, his face looking carefree.

  Alas, Luo Zhong sighed in his heart. The master was indeed the most ruthless emperor. This time, Yan Hou had offended him and it was truly a case of "you cant have your cake and eat it too". Moreover, he would also have to pay with a beautiful sister like a flower jade.

  "Do you know the game of cat catching mice?"

  "Ah, I dont know..." Luo Zhong suddenly didnt understand what his master meant by this.

  "After catching a mouse, the cat doesnt rush to eat it immediately, but instead likes to play with it. Im suddenly very interested in this game!"

  Chu Yixuan looked at Luo Zhong and slowly said, suddenly shifting his gaze to the window outside under the night sky. Outside was an enchanting night, and a deep smile slowly floated on his lips. In his heart, he secretly thought: Yan Xijun, you have already been chosen by me as prey, dont let me down.
