Su Yang laughed and said, "Don't worry, I have no intention of harming you. Even if I wanted to, there's no need to come looking for you in person. As long as everyone in the palace knows where the Lihe Palace is, I can't harm you just based on that."
Su Yang secretly added in his heart: If the palace people hadn’t dared to tell me, I wouldn’t have come to find you.
Jiang Yuanyuan thought about it carefully. Although she felt that what Su Yang said was indeed right, she still felt a little uneasy. After all, Hua Yiyao was so good to Su Yang.
"Then tell me, what do you want to do in Lihe Palace?" Jiang Yuanyuan asked.
Su Yang replied, "I'm from Prince Xun's Mansion, and I'm sure you know that. Right now, the Emperor wants to behead everyone from Prince Xun's Mansion. As a member of Prince Xun's Mansion, how can I watch them die and do nothing? I heard that the Emperor and the Prince separated in Lihe Palace, so I want to go to Lihe Palace to see if I can find the reason. Since it was listed as a forbidden area by the Emperor, there must be a reason. I want to know what happened in Lihe Palace and want the Emperor and the Prince to reconcile."
After hearing this, Jiang Yuanyuan burst out laughing, laughing at Su Yang's arrogance and overestimation of his own abilities.
"I didn't expect you to be so naive." Jiang Yuanyuan laughed so hard that tears came out.
Su Yang looked at Jiang Yuanyuan, who was laughing so exaggeratedly, and his face darkened as he said, "Forget it if you don't want to talk about it."
After saying this, Su Yang turned and left, as if he was angry.
"Wait!" Jiang Yuanyuan restrained her smile and said to the maid beside her: "Ah Bi, go show her the way, and come back quickly after you're done."
A Bi, the maid standing next to Jiang Yuanyuan, nodded and said, "Yes."
After he finished speaking, he immediately said to Su Yang, "Please come in, young lady."
Su Yang nodded slightly, said "thank you" to Jiang Yuanyuan, and then left with A Bi.
A Bi told Su Yang how to get there and then left. Su Yang followed the route A Bi told him.
After walking for an unknown amount of time, Su Yang stopped in front of a dilapidated palace.
Looking at the silent Lihe Palace in front of him, Su Yang looked up at the gilded plaque on the vermilion gate and murmured softly: "Lihe Palace..."
After a long time, Su Yang lowered his head, pushed open the vermilion door, and stepped into the gate of Lihe Palace.
Walking into the Lihe Palace and looking at the scene in front of him, Su Yang was stunned.
The Lihe Palace was not as quiet as it looked outside. There were some elderly palace maids sitting inside, mostly women. They were dressed neatly. Some were sitting on the doorstep chatting; some were eating snacks; some were embroidering alone. It did not look like what a forbidden palace should look like. These people imprisoned in the forbidden palace had no worries about food and clothing, and lived a very leisurely life.
Not only Su Yang was stunned, but the people in Lihe Palace were also stunned.
How could someone dare to come to the Forbidden Palace? Apart from the palace maids and eunuchs who brought food, they had never seen anyone else.
Su Yang felt a little uncomfortable being stared at by them, so he took the initiative to explain his purpose: "I came here to ask you some questions."
A woman in yellow came forward, looked Su Yang up and down, and said, "Are you Miss Xue Yang, who's been so popular recently?"
Su Yang was slightly stunned: "How do you know?"
"No one dares to come to Lihe Palace so blatantly. Are you relying on the emperor's favor and feeling fearless?" The woman in yellow's words were sharp, making Su Yang feel a little uncomfortable.
Su Yang frowned slightly, suppressed his dissatisfaction, and said calmly: "I want to know why the emperor and the prince turned against each other. If you are willing to tell me, Xue Yang will be very grateful."
