In Lin'an Palace, Chen An just watched as Empress Shangguan Feng, accompanied by palace maids and eunuchs, moved a large amount of things into Lin'an Palace in a grand manner!
Chen An was stunned for a while and couldn't help asking: "Queen, what are you doing..."
"Mr. Chen, from now on I will call you Mr. Junshang. After all, in the imperial palace, calling you that will avoid gossip."
Chen An was depressed. This woman had moved to his territory. Wouldn't that mean he wouldn't be gossiped about?
But soon, the Queen smiled slightly: "Yu'er has lost his mother and father. I really can't bear it, so I brought Chi'er here to accompany Yu'er for a few days. I hope Yu'er can get over the sadness."
Then, Chen An watched Shangguan Feng direct a group of people to move her things into the largest and most luxurious room in Lin'an Palace.
And this room was originally occupied by Chen An and he wanted to live in it himself!
Chen An couldn't help rolling his eyes. This woman was really rude.
But she is the queen, and it seems that this place... all belongs to her.
Chen An was too lazy to say anything else and smiled, "The Queen is so thoughtful."
"Of course, as the mistress of the harem, I naturally think more. Please forgive me, Master Chen!" The Queen said, and called out, "Yier!"
"Auntie, Yi'er is here."
A young girl came over, very pretty.
"Master Chen, this is my brother's daughter Shangguan Yi. This is Master Chen. If you have any problems in the future, please inform Master Chen and he will make arrangements for us!"
Chen An was stunned: "No, Queen, what do you mean?"
The Queen sighed and said, "I am an orphan and a widow, and now that His Majesty has passed away, I have no one to rely on. Naturally, I hope that Master Chen can take care of me."
Chen An stared, this woman's intentions seemed a bit strange.
Why should I take care of you?
They are not my wife!
However, the Queen sighed, "Now, the Second Prince is powerful. I have made my position clear. I'm afraid the Second Prince will not make life easy for me as his mother."
Chen An understood instantly that this woman moved in to accompany Yu'er just for the sake of convenience, and her real intention was to seek safety.
"Aren't there many experts in the palace?"
"Who knows who he is loyal to?" The queen looked gloomy, as if pitiful and helpless.
Although Chen An didn't think that the queen had no means of protecting herself.
However, since he came to seek protection, Chen An would not be unkind. Besides, the queen had clearly expressed her support for Huangfu Yu.
From this point of view, his and the queen's temporary goals are the same.
"The Queen can live here peacefully. I believe that no one can enter or leave the Lin'an Palace at will!"
"Thank you, Mr. Chen, for your care." The queen knelt down and saluted Chen An, without showing any arrogance.
"Yier thanks Mr. Chen." Shangguan Yi also followed suit and bowed.
The two women standing in front of Chen An looked like weak women who needed protection.
The key point is that the Queen, judging by the looks of it, definitely has the strength of the Tongtian realm, but it is hard to tell how high it is.
But Chen An was too lazy to speculate and looked at Shangguan Feng: "Have you started working on that matter?"
"I've already sent someone there, but this is a matter concerning the late emperor and the extremely powerful prince, so besides me, the head of all officials, Mu Heng, must also come forward, otherwise it will be difficult to confirm it!"
"The Minister of the Central Secretariat Mu Heng?" Chen An frowned.
"That's right. I heard that the Second Prince has already sent someone to invite Mu Heng. If this person stands by the Second Prince, I'm afraid even if we find evidence, it will be difficult to convict the Second Prince!"
"Regicide and patricide, yet there's still no way to convict him even though there's evidence?" Chen An was a little surprised.
Shangguan Feng nodded: "Master Chen, although I can initiate an investigation, the conviction naturally requires the conviction of all officials. If Mu Heng is the Second Prince's man, I am afraid that even if there is solid evidence, Mu Heng can overturn it with just one word. After all, the relationship between Fengshen Sect and the court has always been bad!"
After saying this, Shangguan Feng's pretty face turned slightly serious: "I just heard that the Second Prince has sent someone to invite Mu Heng."
Chen An's eyes flashed: "The Queen's eyes and ears are really sharp. She found out so quickly."
"It seems that Mr. Chen also knows about it." Shangguan Feng said with a smile.
Chen An frowned: "What is this Mu Heng's weakness?"
"At least I don't know what his weaknesses are. Although he is the Prime Minister, he does not form cliques for personal gain, is not greedy for money, is not lustful, and has no bad habits. Most importantly, he has no wife or children, and is alone. He is very loyal to the late emperor, and the late emperor also has great trust in Mu Heng and handed over all government affairs to him!"
Chen An smiled and said, "Then I know what his weakness is!"
Shangguan Feng was slightly stunned: "Why do you say that, Master Chen?"
"loyalty!"
Shangguan Feng smiled slightly: "Mr. Chen is amazing. Yi'er will accompany Mr. Chen to the Mu Mansion."
"No need, I've already invited him." Chen An laughed.
At this moment, Shangguan Feng was surprised: "Mr. Chen is so quick. He actually found the breakthrough point so quickly?"
Chen An seemed to have done nothing, but he had a clear understanding of the court situation, and some important figures were also in his mind.
And this Mu Heng is very crucial!
Shangguan Feng's expression became serious. "Please allow me to observe from the dark, Master Chen."
"Of course!"
At this time, Xie Huayu walked in: "Sir, Lord Mu is here."
Chen An looked at Shangguan Feng and said, "Queen, please do as you please!"
"Thank you, Master Chen."
Chen An walked out, and Shangguan Feng's eyes sparkled: "This Lord of Fengshen Sect actually managed to get ahead of the others. The Second Prince just started thinking about it, and Mu Heng has already arrived at Lin'an Palace!"
