Chapter 522 You Must Cooperate

Facing Emperor Shunwu, He Zhiran had no patience to explain.

"As long as you still want Dashun to have the surname Nan, you must listen to my arrangements now."

"Okay, I'll wait for you here." Emperor Shunwu knew he had no choice now.

He Zhiran and Mo Jiuye did not intend to waste time. With Mo Jiuye's ability and her space, the two did not have to worry about how many people were searching outside. What's more, they were now dressed as eunuchs, so it would not be a problem to fool them.

After leaving the cold palace, no one was found outside. It was obvious that Mo Jiuye made the right choice to bring Emperor Shunwu here. At least those people would not find this place in a short time.

Just give them an hour to bring Concubine Yuan here and let her confirm Fei Nanyu's identity.

Although they had changed their attire to avoid arousing suspicion, the two still tried their best to avoid the searching guards.

Mo Jiuye was a fast runner. He took He Zhiran and used his lightness skills from time to time. It didn't take long for them to arrive at Concubine Yuan's bedroom.

It was still the same, but from the footprints in front of the door, it could be seen that the guards had searched here and left.

The two men still climbed over the wall and entered. After explaining the matter clearly to Concubine Yuan, Concubine Yuan was willing to meet Emperor Shunwu to explain the incident of the child swap.

However, they could not just take Concubine Yuan away.

"Your Highness, you know that those outside are the Queen's people. We will take you to see the Emperor, and you must cooperate." He Zhiran reminded.

"Don't worry, I will listen to you." Concubine Yuan promised sincerely.

"Also, my husband and I have sensitive identities. Please, Your Majesty, keep our secret, considering that we are helping Mr. Fei."

"Don't worry about this. I won't tell you. Even if the emperor asks, I will just say that you are sent by Nanyu."

Concubine Yuan was so understanding that He Zhiran didn't have any other instructions. She took out the silver needle from her space and said, "I'm sorry."

Soon, Concubine Yuan fell into a deep sleep.

Nanny Wang, who was standing by, looked a little panicked when she saw this.

Mo Jiuye casually threw out a handful of sleeping pills, and before Nanny Wang fell down, he and He Zhiran lifted her onto the bed.

The two returned to the cold palace again, and before entering the room where Emperor Shunwu was, they took Concubine Yuan out of the space.

After He Zhiran gave her another acupuncture to wake her from her coma, he brought Concubine Yuan, who looked at a loss, into the room.

Emperor Shunwu was very vigilant and started looking for a place to hide as soon as he heard a slight noise outside.

He was alert, but Concubine Yuan was extremely nervous. Although she was prepared to face the crime of deceiving the emperor, she still couldn't appear calm.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, are you there?"

Upon hearing Concubine Yuan's voice, Emperor Shunwu breathed a sigh of relief and said in a deep voice, "I am here."

Although Concubine Yuan was nervous, she did not forget the proper etiquette.

She knelt down in the direction of the Shunwu Emperor's voice and said, "Your Majesty, I am guilty."

Emperor Shunwu had just listened to He Zhiran's general account and naturally felt resentful towards Concubine Yuan.

If it were in the past, if Concubine Yuan had done such a mistake, even if he loved her very much, he would not have failed to punish her.

But now the situation has changed. He is now aware of his situation. Let alone punishing Concubine Yuan, he can't even protect himself.

"Get up first! Tell me what happened back then."

Concubine Yuan wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and recounted all the wrong things she had done in the past.

When necessary, He Zhiran would also make some supplements.

Emperor Shunwu believed what Concubine Yuan said.

She is now saying this at the risk of losing her head for deceiving the emperor, all for the sake of her own son.

"I just heard them say that Nanyu's talent and wisdom surpass those of Nanrui and Nanqi. If that's true, I'm willing to pass the throne to him.

But before that, I have to meet him in person before I can decide."

Mo Jiuye and He Zhiran could both understand why Emperor Shunwu did this.

It was not easy for him to believe Concubine Yuan's words so quickly. Besides, he had just said that he still had a last trump card in his hand.

He wanted to meet Fernando before deciding on the next steps, which was also a cautious move.

He Zhiran entered the space with his consciousness and glanced at the big clock on the wall. It was already past three in the morning.

If we send Concubine Yuan back now, there is still time to leave the palace before dawn.

"Tonight, I will find a way to bring Mr. Fei to see you. As for your safety, we will be unable to help you after we leave."

He Zhiran believed that it would not be difficult for Emperor Shunwu to find a hiding place in his own territory without being discovered by the Queen's people.

Unexpectedly, before Emperor Shunwu could say anything, Concubine Yuan spoke.

"Can you think of a way to have the Emperor come to my place? My place has been searched by the Queen's people and it seems safe for now."

Concubine Yuan was a smart person. Although she didn't know how Mo Jiuye and his wife brought her here to see Emperor Shunwu, she knew in her heart that these two people could also bring Emperor Shunwu to her.

You know what, what Concubine Yuan said is actually a good idea.

Even though He Zhiran said that she would let Emperor Shunwu find a way to hide himself, she was actually still somewhat worried. After all, she and Mo Jiuye had already done so much, and the death of a chess piece in the middle of the process was not the result they wanted.

Just as Concubine Yuan said, her bedroom had been searched, and the Queen was now anxiously searching for Emperor Shunwu, so she would be safe there for a short time.

In order to prevent any changes, He Zhiran did not dare to waste any more time here.

She once again took out the silver needle from the space, found the acupoints of the two people, and pierced them separately...

This time when they left the cold palace, the number of guards outside increased significantly. Fortunately, Mo Jiuye and He Zhiran were both in disguise, and they were able to get through the several times they were questioned on the way.

When they arrived at Concubine Yuan's bedroom, He Zhiran released the two of them from the space, and after waking them up along with Nanny Wang with silver needles, he and Mo Jiuye left again.

This time, they could not use the token to enter and exit the main gate of the palace as they did when they came here, because they had heard from the guards on the way that the gate of the palace had been completely blocked and no one was allowed to enter or exit for a short time.

With so many guards, climbing over the wall to leave is not the best solution. After all, no one who can serve as a guard in the palace is a pushover.

Especially with his young wife along, Mo Jiuye didn't dare to take the risk.

He Zhiran also realized the troublesomeness of the matter, but they had to leave here before dawn no matter what.

Mo Jiuye thought about it and finally came up with only one solution.
