The two of them deliberately said these words in the study so that Xuan Ling, who was squatting in the corner, would know.
These days, Su Mengyan has been looking for opportunities to expose Xuan Ling's true colors, but unfortunately, Xuan Ling started to behave normally during that period. Even though she suddenly became normal, Su Mengyan was still paying attention to her behavior.
After all, she is someone who knows how to use psychology and can easily see through a person's behavior.
It’s a pity that Xuan Ling didn’t know what she was thinking, otherwise she really wouldn’t have been able to tell that this man had eavesdropped on her conversation with Situ Yao outside the study.
When Xuan Ling, who was not far from the study, heard them say that there would be a disaster before the master's wedding, his heart sank and he thought of reporting to the master as soon as possible.
Then I told myself not to panic, otherwise all my previous efforts would be in vain.
She acted as if she had just accidentally walked into the study, was admiring the things around her, and was about to leave.
The two people in the study talked and said a few words to each other. As soon as they opened the door, they looked into the eyes of Xuan Ling who accidentally walked to the side of the study.
She just smiled at them and said a few words of greeting: "I just happened to be passing by and was about to leave."
They said goodbye to her as if they believed her words, and chatted for a while: "How do you feel about being in the mansion? If you don't feel comfortable, you can tell me."
"I'm staying well at your house. Thank you for your concern." Xuan Ling replied.
In order to calm them down, Xuan Ling first walked towards his room in front of them, thought for a moment, and sorted out the information he had heard.
After everyone had dinner together, Su Mengyan invited her: "Do you want to go for a walk together?"
She also agreed: "Of course, let's go for a walk together."
When she was taking a walk, it felt like a real walk. Although she was anxious to leave, she forced herself to stop herself and she couldn't let it show.
During the process, they chatted for a few sentences: "I hope you can forgive me for the rush in receiving guests at your house. How have you been recently? Are you used to it?" "You treat me like a distinguished guest at your house. There is nothing bad to say. I am used to it." Xuan Ling replied.
When Su Mengyan said, "I'm tired, you should go back and rest too," they went back to rest.
At this time, Xuan Ling finally couldn't help it and began to plan the time to meet his master and prepare for what was to come.
This time, she followed the original route to the secret room to report to her master what she had heard today.
"Why are you leaving in such a hurry this time? Someone saw you." Cui Mixue asked when she saw her men looking anxious.
"My lord, I heard their conversation in the study today. They said that a disaster would happen during my lord's wedding and a concubine in the harem would suddenly die. I was afraid that my lord would be implicated, so I came here to report this." Xuan Ling knelt on one knee and said hurriedly.
Cui Mixue, sitting on the chair, lowered her eyes in thought, then nodded to indicate that she understood: "Go back quickly, before they catch you."
Sure enough, she had been worried about this matter these days. Unexpectedly, Su Mengyan also knew that in the previous life, this concubine died suddenly and mysteriously, which angered the emperor.
He was very angry that someone under the emperor dared to kill his concubines so blatantly, and ordered the man to be arrested.
The guarding became increasingly strict afterwards, and no one dared to go out at will, except for a few individuals such as Situ Zhao.
He wandered around outside every day as if nothing had happened. When the emperor found out about this, he was just a little annoyed and angry.
But he didn't expect that this matter was really related to him. After Situ Yao's strict investigation, he found that this matter was somewhat related to him. Thinking of Situ Zhao's usual behavior, Situ Yao ordered people to magnify the matter and investigate it before handing it over to the emperor.
The atmosphere was tense at the time, and Situ Yao's frequent movements had already made the emperor uncomfortable. Now even the crown prince had implicated him, exaggerating his few connections and submitting a memorial to the emperor.
The emperor was immediately furious. It was bad enough that the boy was uneducated, but he even wanted to step on his head. He was completely disappointed and disgusted with him.
The emperor ordered the arrest of Situ Zhao and ordered him to be tried. The result of the trial was not much different from what Situ Yao said, which made the emperor furious.
He was ordered to be strictly guarded, and a teacher was ordered to teach him. He was not allowed to leave his residence without the emperor's consent.
This was a huge disgrace for him. Seeing that he had lost his power, all the officials began to report his actions one by one, which made the emperor deeply aware of his lack of knowledge.
Since Su Mengyan also knows these things, there must be something wrong.
Based on her previous tests, plus Xuan Ling's information, and since it was impossible for her own people to lie to her, they concluded that she was also a reborn person.
She must be more careful from now on. She can't let Su Mengyan ruin her good fortune.
This person is calm and strategic, and he might be a stumbling block on her path.
Cui Mixue thought to herself, since you are here to meet me, don't blame me for being ruthless. I must eliminate you. It doesn't take two people to rewrite history. There is no room for two tigers in one mountain. The final winner will definitely be me.
We still have to keep an eye on the movements in the palace these days. The sudden death of a concubine is inevitable, so Situ Zhao has to go out less recently and stay less under the emperor's nose.
Cui Mixue then secretly met with Situ Zhao and expressed her thoughts: "You should go out less recently and don't cause trouble. Something might happen soon. Don't hang around under the emperor's nose."
After hearing this, Situ Zhao was also a little frightened, and quickly agreed: "Okay, I will try not to go out."
The two met for a very short time and planned to deal with Su Mengyan after the wedding.
On the other side, Su Mengyan and Situ Yao naturally started their plan. After all, they deliberately told this matter to Xuan Ling, and now it was confirmed that Xuan Ling was indeed a spy.
Su Mengyan said to him, "This time, she will definitely meet with Situ Zhao secretly to remind him to stay out of the house. Now that the fish has taken the bait, there must be no chance for it to escape."
Situ Yao listened carefully to Su Mengyan's words. Every time something happened, she was always fearless, as if nothing could stop her.
This is very similar to him. He doesn't intend to give the fish a chance to escape the hook. Since the fish is willing to bite the hook, it's time to reel in the line.
"Since she reminded him to go out less, we will have a nimble secret guard steal his personal belongings when he goes out and hide them in the palace. If the emperor finds out, he won't have a chance to argue." Su Mengyan reminded him.
The real Xuan Ling was imprisoned by Cui Mixue in her mansion. She knew that although this person might not necessarily help them, she was one of the forces that strengthened the prince's power.
Cui Mixue would go there to comfort her whenever she had time, so that she wouldn't have any thoughts of escaping from here.
This time, Cui Mixue brought some pastries and went to the remote courtyard in person.
The guards outside saw her and immediately made way for her and opened the door to let her in. Cui Mixue saw that he performed well and stuffed a silver ingot into his pocket, and the man smiled repeatedly.
