Fu Hanlai didn't dare to say a word because he didn't dare to speak his mind. Otherwise, given Jiang Xuelin's personality, she would definitely laugh at him, and he didn't want that.

So he changed the subject, pointing to a small, exquisite plum vase on the display shelf, "This plum vase..."

"Smack!"

The plum vase that was originally sitting properly on the display cabinet fell down and shattered into several pieces on the ground.

It has far more petals than the plum blossom itself.

Fu Han looked at the fragments on the ground, then turned to look at the expressionless Jiang Xuelin. He opened his mouth as if to say that it had nothing to do with him, that he hadn't even touched the thing, and that it had framed him!

"...I think I heard the child crying too, I'll go check!" With that, he sped off like a shot.

"Fu Han is here!"

Hearing Jiang Xuelin's angry shout behind him, Fu Hanlai ran even faster.

He's not stupid, why would he go back now!

The palace seemed to fall into complete silence. Emperor Xuande and the Crown Prince were waiting for the cure, while Fu Yunhui and the Imperial Concubine were waiting for Emperor Xuande and the Crown Prince to "die of illness" so that they could act with a legitimate reason—especially waiting for the Crown Prince to die.

Little did they know that the news circulating in the palace about the Crown Prince and Emperor Xuande's worsening illness was all false, and that even the imperial physicians they controlled had long been under Emperor Xuande's control.

When the mute nanny brought news that the Crown Prince and Emperor Xuande were out of danger and only needed to rest and recover their energy lost due to the Ten Kings Gu, Jiang Xuelin thought about it and decided to secretly go to the Prince Cheng's residence that night.

Jiang Xuelin didn't trust anyone to deliver the message at this crucial moment, so she decided to go herself.

There weren't many people in Fei Qing's courtyard, but because it was unclear who belonged to Fei Qing and who belonged to Fu Yunhui and the Imperial Concubine, Jiang Xuelin did not show up.

There were no servants in her room, as if... she was waiting for Jiang Xuelin to come over.

Fei Qing was a light sleeper. She woke up as soon as Jiang Xuelin came in. She wasn't scared when she saw a dark figure standing by the bed. Instead, she grabbed a piece of clothing and put it on. "Sister Xuelin."

He accurately called out Jiang Xuelin's name.

With the doors and windows closed, no light could get in, and there were no lights on inside. Jiang Xuelin had no idea how Fei Qing had recognized her, unless…

"Were you waiting for me?"

"Hmm." Fei Qing's voice was filled with laughter, and he seemed to be in a good mood. "I guessed that Sister Xue Lin would make this trip herself. She sent people out every night, and sure enough, I waited for her."

"Has the curse on His Highness the Crown Prince and the Emperor been lifted? Thank you, Sister Xue Lin, for making this trip and letting me know this news."

Jiang Xuelin: "..."

She hasn't said anything yet.

However, in the end she had no choice but to compromise.

"Although I don't know why you did this or what outcome you want, Qing'er, please take care of yourself no matter what."

Even in the past, she couldn't understand Fei Qing's thoughts.

She would say things that were hard for me to understand, but that didn't stop them from having a good relationship before.

"You're always so easy to fool and soft-hearted. Sister Xuelin has probably forgotten what I said last time. Please don't forgive me."

Jiang Xuelin: "..."

“I’m doing quite well. Although Fu Hanlai is a loud and boisterous guy, it’s also quite interesting to be with him, even though I often get annoyed.”

Seeing the bright look in Jiang Xuelin's eyes when she mentioned Fu Hanlai, Fei Qing's smile deepened.

"That's because you were lucky. Even though you were tricked, you met a very good person. It wasn't me who helped you and got you a good marriage. Don't get the wrong idea."

She knew that Jiang Xuelin would be happy with Fu Hanlai, and that she wouldn't let the inner quarters of the household extinguish all her light. Her Xuelin sister should stay like this forever.

Instead of being dragged into the vortex of the succession struggle.

Hearing Fei Qing say this again, Jiang Xuelin felt a little annoyed. She muttered something and ran away. Anyway, Fei Qing already knew the message she wanted to pass on, so she didn't need to say it.

After leaving the Prince Cheng's residence, Jiang Xuelin suddenly realized that she had forgotten to ask the reason, and had forgotten to ask Fei Qing why he was so determined to destroy the Prince Cheng's residence.

Yes, Fei Qing is determined to destroy Prince Cheng's mansion.

If things continue like this, Fu Yunhui will find that the Crown Prince and Emperor Xuande have both recovered. At most, he will be imprisoned or demoted to commoners. But if he forces the emperor to abdicate and rebel, the outcome will be different.

That's why Jiang Xuelin leaked the information to Fei Qing, allowing Fei Qing to pressure Fu Yunhui into a coup.

As for why Fei Qing did this, who knows?

When Jiang Xuelin returned home, she saw Fu Hanlai sitting on the bed with a quilt in his arms, and two sleeping children lying next to him. The resentment on his face was deeper than that of a ghost.

"Oh, so you finally remembered you have kids at home and came back? I'd have thought you were out having a tryst in the middle of the night."

"I'll take you with me next time."

Jiang Xuelin changed out of her clothes, which made it easier for her to move around, and said casually.

"...Alright, I can keep watch for you." Fu Hanlai instantly changed his tune, picked up the two sleeping children, and took them to the next room.

When he returned, Jiang Xuelin was already washing up and getting ready to rest.

The two lay in bed, and Fu Hanlai was still wondering, "Why do you think your dear sister hates Fu Yunhui and the others so much? Aren't they her own cousins?"

When Fei Qing was mentioned, Fu Hanlai couldn't help but feel a little jealous, referring to her as "your good little sister."

"I don't know, I forgot to ask. Anyway, helping her is the right thing to do. Fu Yunhui wouldn't have had a good ending anyway, this is just giving her another push." ​​Lying on the bed, Jiang Xuelin propped her head up with one hand and looked at Fu Hanlai. "Sigh, Fu Ashou, based on my understanding of her, Fu Yunhui should make a move soon. She won't have to wait too long."

"Tsk! It's better to end it sooner."

As expected, Jiang Xuelin's words came true. In just four days, Fu Yunhui joined forces with the imperial concubine in the palace to force the emperor to abdicate. Fortunately, the palace was prepared in advance, and the imperial concubine's Yikun Palace had already been taken into control, so there were not many losses.

When Fu Yunhui saw the Crown Prince, whose complexion was not very good but who was still full of energy, and the Xuande Emperor, who was burning with anger but equally full of energy, he immediately realized that he was too late.

On his deathbed, Fu Yunhui was still thinking that if he had known, he wouldn't have waited for that legitimate title and would have directly activated the Ten Kings Gu.

Unfortunately, there's never any hindsight in this world.

In short, by the time Jiang Xuelin learned of this in the morning, Fu Yunhui was already dead. Upon hearing the news of Fu Yunhui's death, the Imperial Concubine also hanged herself in her Yikun Palace. Because Fu Yunhui's maternal family, the Yongchang Marquis's Mansion, was involved in the incident, the Marquis and his heir were killed on the spot, and all the people in the Marquis's Mansion were imprisoned.

The Prince Cheng's residence was also surrounded, preventing any messages from being sent out.
