Looking at her fleeing back and her two subordinates with empty eyes, you can tell that this woman has extraordinary means.

"Interesting."

.

Rong Xi finally returned to the bedroom, changed out of his nightgown and put it back into the spiritual space.

Lying on the bed, she couldn't understand why Shen Ze'an appeared there. He looked like he had been waiting for her for a long time.

But how is that possible? They have never had any intersection. The only time they met was when they went to the imperial study yesterday.

Could it be that he was attracted by his own beauty, but he is a eunuch.

She became angry when she said this. How could the target of this mission be a eunuch? She cursed the system countless times in her heart before falling asleep.

As for Shen Ze'an, he originally wanted to go and see the Ninth Princess in person today. Nothing in and outside the palace was beyond his control, but recently the Ninth Princess had been very active.

Several eunuchs and palace maids disappeared in the palace, and the last traces of them found by the underground people were all with her.

She was originally an abandoned child in the cold palace, but she had the ability to come out from anywhere and let the Fifth Princess, who always looked down on everyone, personally arrange her affairs. It seems that she is indeed not simple.

He has a kind of medicine that is specially used for interrogating prisoners. It will cause pain if taken, but no one can ever tell a lie under the effect of this medicine.

When he came with the medicine, he saw a dark shadow. The figure was obviously the Ninth Princess he met yesterday, so he followed it.

But I didn't expect that this person was really capable.

The two people who had just been controlled by mental power have now woken up. When asked about what happened just now, they both said in unison that they didn't know what had just happened.

Shen Ze'an didn't ask any more questions, but felt that this Ninth Princess was becoming more and more interesting.

So Rong Xi, who was said to be interesting by someone, woke up the next day to find that he had received two young eunuchs sent by the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

Rong Xi analyzed it over and over again, but still couldn't figure out who sent these two people.

The heavy snow outside was slowly melting, and the sun was shining brightly, making it very warm. Rong Xi was walking on the way to the Empress Dowager's Palace, mentally prepared for what he would encounter there.

The Queen Mother sent someone over early in the morning to say that she wanted to see Rong Xi, so she hurriedly packed up and followed him over.

The Queen Mother suddenly wanted to see me so much. I guess it was the Fifth Princess's masterpiece yesterday.

She was very resistant to creatures like the Queen Mother. When there were tasks like harems in previous worlds, their attitudes only changed after they had children.

This mission has nothing to do with her, and since he is on the opposite side of her, he is not an easy person to deal with.

As expected, Rong Xi was called in early in the morning and waited outside for almost an hour before she got familiar with the people inside.

It was so cold and snowy that if it were someone else, they would have caught a cold long ago.

Finally, when she could no longer wait, the nanny inside slowly walked out, speaking in a respectful but arrogant tone.

"The Ninth Princess Queen Mother has finished washing up. Please come in."

Even though she was not far away, he didn't have the strength to compete with her, so he just thanked her obediently.

"Thank you, Mammy."

When Rong Xi entered, he saw a middle-aged beauty who was almost fifty years old, but Rong Xi still noticed the serious calculation between her brows.

"Greetings, Her Majesty the Queen Mother."

The Queen Mother drank tea and flipped through the scriptures in her hand without even looking at her.

Although Rong Xi was angry, he couldn't show it now, so he could only pretend to cough a few times as if he had a cold.

"Cough, cough, cough, cough."

The Queen Mother then looked up and looked at Rong Xi with a loving face.

"You kid, if you feel weak, get up quickly." After saying this to Rong Xi, she turned to the nanny beside him and scolded him, "You too, I was reading the scriptures and didn't pay attention, and you didn't even bother to remind me that the Ninth Princess was here."

"It's my fault, Ninth Princess, please don't blame me."

"That's fine. I had no intention of disturbing the Empress Dowager while she was reading. It's just that I caught a cold a while ago and haven't recovered yet, so I couldn't help but bother her."

"Don't disturb me, don't disturb me, just do it."

Rong Xi finally sat down and drank some hot tea.

"Rong Xi, you just moved into Jinhe Palace. If the tribe needs anything, just tell me or go to your queen sister-in-law. You are all young girls, so there are definitely some things you don't think through."

Rong Xi naturally heard the hidden meaning in her words, which meant that she should not bother her daughter if she had any problems.

"Thank you for your concern, Empress Dowager. The Ministry of Internal Affairs has already delivered everything I need. I would also like to thank Sister Wu for these."

"Well, since you've been released from the cold palace, you should learn the rules of this palace. Your fifth sister has sent you a maid to serve you, and I can't let you go back empty-handed. This is Nanny Sun from my palace. She's been in the palace longer than you are. If there's anything you don't understand, just ask her to do it."

Another one to send eyeliner.

"Yes, thank you, Queen Mother."

"Well, it's freezing cold, I won't keep you any longer."

"I'll take my leave."

.

Rong Xi spent more than half a month peacefully in the palace. Although she still suffered from lack of food and clothing and was treated differently, it was much better than being in the cold palace.

The fifth princess, who received the note again that day, had been investigating who sent the note to her bedroom for half a month.

This man's skills are definitely extraordinary. He was able to enter and exit her bedroom twice without anyone noticing. The last news he sent was that the emperor's brother intended to send him to Qing Kingdom for marriage.

The news brought this time was that the envoys from Qing Kingdom would arrive in the capital soon.

She became more and more panicked. No matter what this person's purpose was, based on the information she had found out, what he said was almost true.

No, she would never sit there and wait for death. Even if she wanted to arrange a marriage, that person would definitely not be her.

She looked out the window, her eyes grew darker, and her heart grew more disappointed. She had never expected that her brother, who was born of the same mother, would be so disregarding of sibling affection after becoming emperor.

"Someone come."

Baojing had just returned from being punished last time. When she heard the princess calling people inside, although she was scared, she still went in.

"Princess."

"Is there still no news about Caizhi? Is she dead? Why is she so useless?"

"Princess, calm down. I'll have someone contact Caizhi right away."

The people sent by Bao Jing were whispering about the Ninth Princess who had just come out of the cold palace.

"What methods did the Ninth Princess use to get His Majesty to release her from the cold palace?"

"Needless to say, it's her foxy ways."

"You shouldn't talk nonsense. Your Majesty and the Ninth Princess are..."

"What's the big deal? After all, our late emperor even had male concubines. Your Majesty is the late emperor's bloodline, so I'm not surprised by anything he does."

The two of them had just turned the corner when they saw the Ninth Princess, who had a strange smile on her face.
