Situ Xiu suddenly stood up.

"Let's go to the palace to see the Empress."

Akahoshi was taken aback.

"Now?"

It was already dark outside.

He went to the palace without being summoned.

This is illogical.

However, if the prince wants to go, they can't stop him.

Situ Xiu put his hands behind his back.

I recalled the clarity I felt when I first met Song Su.

He was so hungry that his face was deathly pale, as if he hadn't eaten for several days.

But it was the clothes she was wearing.

Both the workmanship and the materials.

They are all very meticulous.

She saved him, but only asked him to take her back to the capital.

She bears a striking resemblance to the current empress.

Even so, Situ Xiu felt that the possibility was unlikely.

But we still need to go to the palace.

His eyelids drooped.

"All the shadow guards follow."

His voice carried a hint of gloom.

His real purpose in going to see the Empress was to search the palace thoroughly to see if she was still there.

Now let's talk about the other side.

Su Yan entered the palace.

She didn't sneak in.

Instead, they chose a side gate on the northwest side of the palace.

He handed his token to the guard at the gate.

That token is a royal token.

Upon seeing this, the guards said nothing and let them pass.

She just went inside.

We wandered around the palace for a long time.

The palace is too big.

It stands tall and majestic, exuding grandeur.

The city walls were high, keeping out all the noise and bustle of the outside world.

Palace after palace.

Su Yan wandered around for a long time but still couldn't find the Empress's palace.

The original owner rarely went out before, and had never even been to the Dragon Roar Palace or the Imperial Study where the Emperor lived.

So much so that Su Yan didn't even have this part in her memory.

I can only search randomly on my own.

At first, you'll encounter patrolling personnel who will stop and question a guard who is wandering around aimlessly.

Later, Su Yan found it troublesome and began to avoid it.

But this journey took an hour and a half.

From sunset to nightfall.

Now it's past dinnertime.

She still hadn't found her place.

She spoke

"Little Flower".

Xiaohua spoke up in time to help.

"Host, would you like to go to the Imperial Study or the Imperial Bedchamber?"

Su Yan thought for a moment.

At this hour, after finishing dinner, shouldn't he still need to go to the Imperial Study to review memorials?

Thinking this, she said

"Go to the Imperial Study."

"Host, go straight, then turn left at the second intersection..."

With Xiao Hua's guidance, Su Yan finally made her way to the Imperial Study after many twists and turns.

They evaded the guards and patrols.

She climbed in through a window.

As soon as I stepped inside.

It was very quiet inside.

Occasionally, you can hear two female voices talking.

A woman's voice was steady.

"Your Majesty should interact more with newly promoted officials such as Zhao Mu in the cabinet to cultivate your own power."

Behind that long pear wood chopping board, on the dragon throne.

A woman was sitting there, wearing a dragon robe and a dragon crown.

The woman nodded.

"good."

The empress on the dragon throne had lost the composure and calmness she displayed when meeting others, and listened very attentively to the maid beside her.

Su Yan chewed on the candy.

Listen carefully.

The maid was about twenty-five or twenty-six years old.

Not very big.

However, he is quite insightful and shrewd in his speech and actions.

Moreover, it offers a commanding view.

She didn't act like a maid at all.

On the contrary, the Empress seemed rather timid and submissive in comparison.

At first glance, someone who didn't know better might mistake that maid for an empress.

I've basically finished understanding it.

Little Flower's sweet, childlike voice

"Host, what is your plan?"

"Wait for them to come, kill them, and change your clothes."

Xiaohua listened and remained silent.
