Chapter 213: Each with His Own Agenda



Inside the hall, Gong Yunluo was a little impatient and kept urging.

Gong Yunfei looked embarrassed and kept rubbing her brows. After a long time, she raised her head and said, "Sister, Yunfei has an idea. Can you please consider it and see if it is feasible?"

Hearing this, Gong Yunluo nodded excitedly, "Okay, tell me quickly, I want to hear it."

"Yes!" Gong Yunfei bit her lip. "The emperor has no offspring yet. Yunfei thinks that if other royal relatives knew about this, they might have different ideas. We can't take this chance."

"Of course." Gong Yunluo nodded in agreement.

"If that's the case, then that means the person who is involved in this matter must be the one who wants the emperor to live the most. However, there is only one concubine in the harem, and she is the only daughter in the family, with no descendants. Or, a woman like this will be all the hope and expectation of her family." Gong Yunfei touched his chin and said, "Sister, do you still remember, Lei Concubine Lei Jia?"

Gong Yunfei's reminder made Gong Yunluo's eyes light up with joy. "You mean, General Lei's only daughter?"

"Exactly!"

"Well, if it's her, she is indeed a good candidate. General Lei is a veteran of two dynasties. He is loyal to the late emperor and very obedient to his brother. In addition, his only child is Concubine Lei. She is indeed the most suitable candidate." Gong Yunluo paused, "But, she has not been the most favored one in these years."

"That's why she is more valuable. Sister, think about it. This Lei Concubine is the apple of General Lei's eye. Now that Brother Xunxiao and other generals are fighting in the war, he is already old and can no longer do much. Brother Emperor naturally doesn't care about Lei Concubine that much. If there is a chance to help Lei Concubine regain favor, he would naturally hope for it the most. After all, once people get old, they care more about their children." Gong Yunfei said with a smile, "Sister, do you think it is most appropriate to let General Lei do this?"

"Indeed, compared to other royal relatives or generals, he is the most suitable." Gong Yunluo nodded, "Xiao Xizi, what do you think?"

Xiao Xizi, who was waiting on the side, also thought carefully, "In reply to the princess, I also think that what Princess Yunfei said is very true."

"Okay!" Gong Yunluo nodded with satisfaction, "Xiao Xizi, you and Princess Yunfei go to General Lei's residence and tell General Lei the details of the matter. As for how to hint to General Lei, it's up to you, Yunfei."

"Yes!" Two voices came out at the same time.

"Well, Yunfei, please come to Prince Zhan's Mansion to see me later. I'm leaving first." Gong Yunluo said hurriedly, called the maid in a hurry, and went towards Prince Zhan's Mansion excitedly.

Seeing Gong Yunluo leave, Gong Yunfei then instructed Xiao Xizi, "Xiao Xizi, wait for a moment and go to Concubine Lei to see if she has anything to bring to General Lei. I will prepare everything and leave later."

"Yes! I'll take my leave!" Xiao Xizi retreated respectfully, and Gong Yunfei no longer concealed the disdainful smile on her face. After carefully looking around and making sure that no one was around, she took out a flute from her arms. A sound of the flute rang out, and a black figure quickly appeared in front of Gong Yunfei.

"master!"

"Well, you go to the Lei Mansion and tell Wu Jue to seriously injure the emperor, but not fatally. Also, the emperor must doubt General Lei's loyalty!" At this moment, Gong Yunfei's face no longer had the gentleness of the past, but was replaced by a bloodthirsty and sinister smile.

"Yes!" The well-trained black shadow said nothing more and disappeared without a trace, as if he had never appeared just now. Gong Yunfei then stared at the beautiful scenery outside the house with hatred, and there was only cruel murderous intent in his eyes. Lei Yue, this princess wants you to cut off your descendants! Thinking about the near future and Lei Yue's fate, Gong Yunfei gradually smiled.

Gong Yunfei turned around, and her original viciousness disappeared. She returned to her gentle appearance in front of others. Gong Yunfei took light lotus steps and walked out of the palace.

In Prince Zhan's mansion, Gong Yunluo had already arrived at the mansion at full speed.

She was seen waiting anxiously in the hall for a long time. The red veil covering her face revealed her round eyes. She looked towards the door from time to time, until the majestic figure at the door appeared in her sight. She breathed a sigh of relief.

"Brother Xunxiao." Gong Yunluo called Situ Xunxiao coquettishly.

Today, Situ Xunxiao was wearing a black brocade robe, with only gold and silver threads outlining the majestic pattern. It was simple, but it had an oppressive nobility. He just glanced at Gong Yunluo with his indifferent face and did not answer.

Seeing that Situ Xunxiao remained silent, Gong Yunluo bit her lower lip aggrievedly. There was already mist in her eyes. With a slight nasal tone, she called out again, "Brother Xunxiao, are you ignoring Yunluo?"

"Princess, what's the matter?" An indifferent tone escaped from her mouth.

Hearing Situ Xunxiao's estrangement, Gong Yunluo was so aggrieved that she burst into tears. "Brother Xunxiao, I know you are angry, but wasn't Yunluo also taught a lesson by Princess Xiaoting? Yunluo beat her, and she is fine today. But, look, who is more aggrieved when Yunluo was beaten?"

The more Gong Yunluo talked, the more aggrieved she felt. She pulled down the scarf covering her face, revealing that her red and swollen face was unevenly stained, and she could vaguely see fingerprints.

Situ Xunxiao frowned slightly. The slaps that Zong Zheng Xiaoting had given him yesterday were indeed quite powerful, but not to this extent. He knew Gong Yunfei's medical skills. Now, the redness and swelling on her face became more severe. He could only say that she had done it on purpose.

However, Situ Xunxiao's frown made Gong Yunluo very happy. She hurriedly walked to Situ Xunxiao's side and sniffed, "Brother Xunxiao, I know you still care about Yunluo. Yunluo promises that there will never be a next time, okay? You know, Yunluo didn't make things difficult for Concubine Jing before, right?"

Looking at Gong Yunluo's face, and thinking about what Zhou Miao said last night, Situ Xunxiao's expression softened slightly, "If there is a next time, there will be no need for this king and you to talk again."

"Well, Yunluo swears!" When Gong Yunluo saw Situ Xunxiao soften, she smiled happily, with smiling eyes, showing her joy at the moment.

At the same time, three carriages drove out of the palace and headed westwards towards the Summer Resort. All along the way, everything was fine until they passed a small town where the carriages were blocked by a bustling crowd. People had no choice but to get off the carriages to check. They saw lanterns and decorations everywhere, lion dances and dragon parades, and it was very lively.

"It seems that we have encountered good times in this town." Gong Yunyang fanned himself and said as he looked at the sea of ​​people.

"Yes, we can only delay here for now." The Queen Mother nodded.

"In that case, let's walk around and take a look." Concubine Jing pointed to the applause in front, her eyes revealing anticipation.
