Zhao Ziyan did not quite agree with Lin Liqiang's words.

They even felt that His Highness had someone he liked.

This is fantastic news!

He always felt that His Highness was good in every way, except that his way of doing things was too cruel and ruthless.

Zhao Ziyan was also worried that if Xuanyuan Yonghao were to ascend the throne one day, he would be too tyrannical and cruel.

How can you expect someone who is devoid of love and compassion to love his people?

But things are different now.

Your Highness has someone you like.

Does this suggest that His Highness's nature might not be as cruel and ruthless as he imagined?

Just as Zhao Ziyan was thinking, the Southern Tang, which had originally left with the Third Prince, suddenly turned back.

Southern Tang Dynasty bowed with clasped hands.

"Prime Minister, General, His Highness wishes to see you."

Lin Liqiang listened, his eyes widening in disbelief, as if he needed to confirm something.

"Does Your Highness wish to see both of us together?"

"yes"

Lin Liqiang had never understood these things about officialdom, so he turned to look at Zhao Ziyan.

"Prime Minister Zhao, please analyze this. What does His Highness mean by this? His Highness has never summoned the two of us directly before."

Xuanyuan Yonghao acted very cautiously, not only keeping it a secret from the First Prince and the Second Prince, but also from the Emperor.

Therefore, even if there are important matters to discuss, he would only meet with one of them. To outsiders, it would just seem like the Third Prince wanted to cultivate relationships and make things easier for himself.

As for the struggle for the throne and such.

Not only did the emperor never take him seriously, but the princes and ministers also never considered the Third Prince as a candidate for the future emperor.

Everyone knows that the Prime Minister and the General have a strained and hostile relationship.

If they were to be invited to the Third Prince's palace in a very open and unpretentious manner, there would probably be another round of gossip and rumors.

Zhao Ziyan remained silent, while Lin Liqiang frowned, as if suddenly realizing something.

"Could it be... related to that maid?"

Thinking about it further made no difference; the two followed closely behind the Southern Tang dynasty.

Zhao Ziyan was refined and gentle, and spoke...

"Southern Tang, how long has that maid been following His Highness?"

Actually, the three of them are quite familiar with each other.

In general, the Southern Tang Dynasty played a crucial role in the transmission of messages.

Therefore, it is natural to know that Prime Minister Zhao and General Lin's hearts are with His Highness.

As they spoke, their usual guard was gone.

A cold, hard reply

"More than a month."

Zhao Ziyan pondered for a while

"What is His Highness's attitude towards her?"

"Unprecedented pampering."

Lin Liqiang's rough voice rang out

"Have you thoroughly investigated their identities and backgrounds?"

Lin Liqiang didn't understand matters of love and romance; he was only concerned about whether the Third Prince would be in danger because of this woman.

His question caused the Southern Tang Dynasty to fall silent.

After a long pause, the cold voice of the Southern Tang Dynasty...

"Your Highness is well-informed and knows the situation clearly."

Lin Liqiang listened to his ambiguous answer, which was clearly an attempt to cover something up.

"So that means she really is a spy sent by someone else?!"

Upon receiving this answer, Lin Liqiang's impression of Su Yan worsened.

Zhao Ziyan patted Lin Liqiang on the shoulder, his voice gentle.

"Please don't be anxious. His Highness knows what's going on. We don't need to worry about these things."

As they spoke, the three of them hurried toward the bedchamber.

The two people had already returned to their sleeping quarters.

Su Yan was placed on a chair.

She looked somewhat weak and took a piece of candy out of her pocket.

Peel it open slowly.

Her fingers were trembling; it took her a long time to peel the candy.

Xiaohua's voice was full of pride.

"Host, so cool! So amazing!!"

This obedient and well-behaved girl, who is also incredibly powerful in crucial moments, is her host!
