"Brother Wei Lin..."
Wei Lin subconsciously turned his head away, and after a long while, he said, "Wanqiu...Ms. Xue, shouldn't I show up at this time?"
Xue Wanqiu shook her head like a rattle: "No, no, listen to me!"
Yin Tao, who was watching the excitement not far away, was overjoyed. It was the first time she had witnessed such a bloody plot. However, she was also shocked when she saw the male and female protagonists and the second male lead reconcile in the end. She asked, "Is there still any law?"
Fang Zhiyi just took the time to find out about the heroine's movements. He was quite satisfied with Yin Tao's approach. At least she attracted most of the heroine's attention, and he didn't have to deal with that self-righteous girl who had traveled through the book.
The old eunuch whispered, "Your Majesty, Lord Yang is waiting for you in the study."
Fang Zhiyi smiled and said, "Qian!"
Xue Wanqiu tried to see Fang Zhiyi again, but Yin Tao was like a ghost. She was waiting there fifty meters away from the palace when Xue Wanqiu appeared. She started to ridicule her. The palace maids who followed her also covered their mouths and laughed at Xue Wanqiu. This made Xue Wanqiu lose her defense. She only slapped her a few times, but an old maid slapped her more than a dozen times.
Xue Wanqiu fled back home with a swollen face. She was sure that Concubine Yin was deliberately preventing her from seeing Fang Zhiyi!
But this made her feel a sense of crisis. If Concubine Yin controlled Fang Zhiyi first, then her subsequent plans would be difficult to carry out.
So she met with three men.
"I didn't offend Concubine Yin, yet she keeps targeting me. How hateful!"
These words left the male protagonists a little confused. Looking at Xue Wanqiu's swollen face, they felt a little distressed. However, except for Wei Lin, the other two also felt that they were restricted in every way recently.
"Wanqiu, a supervisor has come to the Salt and Iron Bureau. It's not very convenient for me to do my job." Liu Yan complained. He could have collected a lot of money by his own means, but he didn't know why his confidant accidentally fell into the moat and drowned because of drinking. The supervisor who came here stared at the account book all day long, which made him feel uneasy.
"My situation is also very troublesome. I don't know what's wrong with those old guys recently. They are targeting me everywhere." Xiao Ce was also a little helpless. The confidants he had cultivated with great effort were either suddenly transferred or received orders from the emperor to cooperate with him. The few ministers he had won over before had also become much more distant from him recently, which made him powerless when wrestling with those old stubborn people in the court.
Wei Lin didn't say anything. He didn't encounter any special situation. The imperial guards were now firmly under his control. He just looked at Xue Wanqiu's face and his hands gradually clenched into fists.
Xue Wanqiu frowned and thought for a while, actually thinking about the plot: "Who are the people targeting you?"
Liu Yan and Xiao Ce rattled off a string of names, and Xue Wanqiu gradually realized that these people were the villains from the original novel! They were all obstacles preventing her brother from ascending to power! Old stubborn people!
That makes sense.
