A faint light flashed in Baili Feiyue's eyes.
I heard Qian Yueluo's voice again, "Anyway, let's go to the palace first and try to dispel Second Princess's idea." He sighed again, "As for other things, even if we are worried, we can't change anything."
Since she was coming, Baili Feiyue had already learned from Mu Wen and Mu Wu along the way why Qian Yueluo and Qian Xueqing, who were obviously just daughters of Prince Fengluan, could call Empress Dowager Fengluan the imperial grandmother and call each other imperial sister.
More than 20 years ago, not long after Empress Qingyao left Fengluan, one of the side branch princes of Fengluan gave birth to a daughter. Although she was only a princess, she was given the same honor as a royal princess by the empress dowager. Later, Qian Jingshu was born, and later Qian Yueluo and Qian Xueqing, all of them were given the same honor.
Not only them, but all the daughters of princes, no matter what title they are given, enjoy such honor.
They are all considered as the emperor's granddaughters raised by the empress dowager and can often visit the palace to pay their respects on their own.
But even so, even though Empress Dowager Fengluan raised them all as the emperor's legitimate granddaughters.
When it comes to matters like government and the throne, it's certainly not something Qianyueluo Qianxueqing can change.
None of this matters.
The royal family members like Fengluan must be the most sensitive to any unusual actions of the Fengluan court or the empress dowager.
Qian Yueluo sensed her father's uneasiness, so...
Thinking of this, Baili Feiyue imitated Qian Xueqing flawlessly and replied casually. After that, Qian Yueluo was worried and temporarily lost interest in saying anything.
Half an incense stick later, the carriage stopped at the gate of Fengluan Palace.
Before getting off the carriage, one could see that the guards on duty at the palace gate were the same as the guards patrolling the streets outside, all with strange and terrifying weapons around their waists!
Given Qian Yueluo and Qian Xueqing's identities, they were completely capable of entering the palace on their own. The guards did not interrogate them much. They just asked a few questions as a routine matter and then let them go.
As soon as Baili Feiyue stepped into the palace gate, she found that the royal guards patrolling back and forth were all equipped with those terrifying weapons!
As for the palace servants who came and went, each of them followed their own path, being so cautious that they didn't even dare to glance at him out of the corner of their eyes.
From what we saw along the way, the entire Fengluan Palace seemed to be tense and ready to explode.
Baili Feiyue looked at all this calmly, and Qian Yueluo could naturally see and perceive such obvious changes. He still looked very steady, but his pace had quickened a lot.
However, when they arrived at the palace where Qian Jingshu lived, the gatekeeper heard the purpose of Qian Yueluo and Baili Feiyue, the fake Qian Xueqing, and replied respectfully, "Your Highnesses, my princess is currently playing chess with the Queen Mother. She has only been gone for a short time and I am afraid she will not be back for a while."
Thinking of the status of these two princesses and their friendship with her own princess, the female official added, "Your Highnesses, do you want to wait here for a while and let me inform Her Highness the Princess, or go to the Queen Mother in person..."
"We'll wait here." Qian Yueluo interrupted the female official before she could finish her words.
The female official immediately led them in respectfully.
After the female official served fruits, cakes, tea, etc. and left, Baili Feiyue ate the snacks and waited for a while, then she acted like Qian Xueqing, looking outside frequently, "Fifth sister, how long do we have to wait?"
Qian Yueluo glanced at her and sighed, "If you can't sit still, go take a walk in the yard and garden."
Baili Feiyue threw the last bite of pastry in her hand into her mouth and blinked, "Then I'll go." She looked like she couldn't wait to slip out.
Seeing her run away in an instant, she was like a bird in a cage that was freed instantly. Qian Yueluo shook her head helplessly. In this sensitive period, among the entire Fengluan royal family, only the unrestrained Seventh Sister could be so bold.
And it is impossible for Baili Feiyue to really stroll around the garden with Qian Jingshu.
He went straight out of Qian Jingshu's residence, seemingly strolling around the Fengluan Palace casually, but his actual destination was clear. That was the palace where his mother was most likely living now!
Let’s talk about the outside of the palace at this moment.
The house arranged by Qian Xueqing.
Mu Wen and Mu Wu, who were guarding the outer courtyard, seemed to have not noticed at all that two people had quietly appeared in front of Changsun Wuji in the inner courtyard.
One of the black-clad shadow guards nodded respectfully and reported, "I sneaked into the Fengluan Palace last night and found that the guards in the Fengluan Palace were the same as those on the streets of Kyoto, all equipped with similar weapons."
Another one also spoke up, "We have also found the Fengluan weapons storage. As you expected, there are not only the weapons that the Fengluan guards on the street are equipped with, but also other similar weapons of different sizes and models."
Zhang Sun Wuji was very interested, "Feng Luan is not really an insult to the rumors."
The shadow guard asked respectfully again, "Master, please tell me whether we should destroy those weapons?"
Changsun Wuji sneered, "Since there are people in Fengluan who can make these weapons, why don't they make a second batch after destroying them?"
"What I want to give Ling Jing is a phoenix with sharp teeth and claws, not just the two words 'Phoenix' and 'Lian' in vain."
It's rare for this master, whose mind is always unpredictable, to speak so clearly.
After the two black-clad shadow guards understood their master's plan, they couldn't help but feel a little worried.
"Master, the power of those weapons is extraordinary. Since we won't destroy them, we have to be on guard against them." After all, we are still on someone else's territory.
Zhang Sun Wuji's purple eyes were deep and unfathomable, and he said meaningfully, "Someone is more concerned about this issue than I am."
With a flick of his finger, the rockery in the courtyard collapsed with a loud bang, splashing dust into the sky, and Mu Wen and Mu Wu stood in the dust, covered in dirt.
Although Mu Wen and Mu Wu were caught eavesdropping, they were not embarrassed. "Your Highness the Regent."
Even though Changsun Wuji had exposed them, he remained calm and said, "You two might as well come in and sit and listen. You will be able to understand more clearly."
Mu Wen and Mu Wu looked at each other.
He suppressed all the thoughts in his heart and walked in.
Zhang Sun Wuji looked at them and laughed, "You two are the most capable right-hand men of the Patriarch of the Shu Mu Family. These days, you have been following me and my princess, but you have only been doing the work of ordinary subordinates. It's really unfair."
Mu Wen and Mu Wu have nothing to hide now, and they don't need to deliberately change their aura.
In an instant, they were clearly two identical people, but their demeanor was completely different.
The two black-clad shadow guards in the room immediately realized that the skills of these two men were definitely as good as theirs!
At this moment, Mu Wen and Mu Wu calmly raised their heads and looked at Changsun Wuji. Their attitude was neither flattering nor bowing, but they were still polite and respectful. "Your Highness, Regent, we brothers have been ordered to protect Miss Ling San, so naturally we will not feel wronged."
Zhang Sun Wuji narrowed his eyes nonchalantly, "In that case, then tell me, your Mu family has someone in Fengluan Palace who can contact Empress Qingyao, so why do you say that you can't contact her and invite Jing'er to the palace in person?"
Mu Wen and Mu Wu's hearts skipped a beat.
This Regent...
The Patriarch was right. Nothing can be hidden from the Regent...
Things seem to be on the verge of breaking out here.
Baili Feiyue's situation in the palace was not much better.
After strolling around for a few rounds and going out from a relatively secluded place, the person who came out was no longer "Qian Xueqing", but an ordinary palace maid like the others.
She had never intended to meet her mother using Qian Xueqing's identity.
After all, with Qian Xueqing's identity, it is not realistic for her to meet her mother without anyone noticing.
If I go and ask for a meeting directly, no matter what reason I come up with, it will probably bring trouble to Qian Xueqing.
However, just as he came out, by chance, he ran into an old lady and her maids passing by!
Baili Feiyue lowered her head slightly, stepped aside, and waited quietly for the old lady to pass by.
The old lady didn't even look at her once as she walked past her quickly, but when Baili Feiyue was about to breathe a sigh of relief, she suddenly stopped.
He turned around and looked at Baili Feiyue sharply, "Which palace are you from? What are you doing here?"
