After the letter's issue was resolved, Fei Wan was not idle either.

Just as Fei Wan had planned, she sent someone to invite Wang Dexian, the seal holder of the Imperial Household Department, to come over, but Wang Dexian did not come.

As someone close to Xiao Heng in the past, he was naturally a bit arrogant. He was unwilling to even put in a superficial effort to please Fei Wan, who only relied on the emperor's favor but had no power, and only found some excuses to put her off.

Wang Zhangyin was certain that she would not tell Xiao Heng about such a small matter.

In terms of affection, he is an elder by the emperor's side, and Xiao Heng will be lenient because of their past friendship; in terms of logic, he is not absent without reason, but has found an excuse, so Fei Wan cannot take advantage of this to punish him.

Just because he doesn't come doesn't mean I can't go find him until late.

Wang Zhangyin probably knew her personality and guessed that she would choose to swallow her anger and not cause trouble in order not to disturb Xiao Heng.

Unfortunately, that was the original owner. Fei Wan now wishes to make the situation bigger and bigger.

"Empress, why are you here?"

The young eunuch outside the Silijian gate was a little surprised to see Fei Wan. After bowing in fear, he asked respectfully.

Fei Wan glanced at the eunuch, and the moment he saw her, there was an unusual look of panic on his face.

Fei Wan curled the corners of his lips: "Is Wang Zhangyin in there?"

The eunuch trembled with fear, but answered irrelevantly: "The Prince Wang was unwell, so he was unable to come to see the Empress."

At this time, Xi Ruo whispered in his ear: "Princess, this is exactly what this person said just now."

I see.

The young eunuch was afraid that Fei Wan would punish him, so he was anxious to exonerate himself.

Fei Wan glanced at him coldly and said, "Take me to see him."

The young eunuch looked hesitant, but finally agreed.

All the way to Wang Zhangyin's residence, the door was open. Fei Wan stepped into the yard and saw a man bending over and watering the flowers.

As if he heard some noise at the door, the man stood up and looked towards the door. When he saw Fei Wan and his group, he was not panicked even though there was some surprise in his eyes.

"I heard that Wang Zhangyin was ill, so I came to visit him. I didn't expect that Wang Zhangyin was so relaxed."

Wang Zhangyin calmly put down the watering can, narrowed his eyes and smiled, "Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. My back pain is an old problem. Whenever it hurts, I often can't walk far. I can only water the flowers and plants here to pass the time."

Fei Wan noticed the orchid beside him, which still maintained its dark green leaves in this weather.

This variety is extremely rare, and even among the concubines in the palace, few people grow it. It is not easy to get it. It seems that Wang Zhangyin is really favored by Xiao Heng.

Fei Wan didn't say anything. Instead, Wang Zhangyin looked at the young eunuch who brought them here.

"Gui'an, thank you for bringing the Empress here. You can come and claim your reward later."

It was clearly a commendation, but the eunuch named Gui'an did not feel happy when he heard this. Instead, his whole body stiffened and his fingers trembled slightly.

Gui An lowered his head and answered with great difficulty, spouting out word after word: "Yes, I will withdraw."

Without paying attention to Gui An's reaction, Wang Zhangyin smiled at Fei Wan and bowed respectfully: "Your Majesty, please come in."

Even though Fei Wan noticed something was wrong, he didn't point it out.

To her, this was not surprising.

Wang Zhangyin helped Xiao Heng do so many shady things. He is not a good person, and it is expected that he treats people around him cruelly.

It would be strange if Wang Zhangyin was amiable, kind and gentle.

She dealt with it with a backache, and this Wang Zhangyin didn't take her seriously at all.

"Her Majesty, are you here to ask His Majesty for instructions?"

Wang Zhangyin poured tea for her with a smile on his face.
