However, Tang Chen felt that he had misunderstood her. Although Wang Yanzhou would definitely give her an explanation when he returned, she felt that she could do something. Thus, a sinister plan instantly formed in her mind: "Where is the senior brother?"
When Hei Ya heard her ask Mo Yu, he instantly became alert: "Well, he went home."
“So fast!”
Black Crow then said, "I'm warning you, his brain doesn't work well sometimes. If you teach him nonsense again, I'll be furious!"
Tang Chen thought of the night in Gyeonggi a few days ago, and his eyes were full of sparkling stars: "Oh, you are still thinking about that thing, I was just joking with you!"
Black Crow snorted and said, "A little joke? If you weren't still injured, I would have thrown you back up the tree."
"hey-hey!"
Seeing Tang Chen approaching with a smirk on his face, Hei Ya subconsciously stepped back: "Don't try to get close to me, I won't fall for it. Goodbye!"
After saying that, the man suddenly left. Tang Chen sighed helplessly and went back to his room to pack up the treasures Qinghe had just given him.
That night, Emperor Gan Zhao was busy with official duties and had originally said that he would come to Lin Zirong's place, but in the end he just had someone send a bowl of bird's nest and conveyed his order that he would not come.
After Wang Yanzhou was ready, he walked under the bright moon and stealthily went to Lin Zirong's bedroom. Seeing that no one was around, he simply sat aside and drank tea.
After Lin Zirong had gone to pay his respects to Emperor Gan Zhao, he had just returned from a stroll in the Imperial Garden when he saw Wang Yanzhou sitting in a side hall sipping tea. "Why did you go to so much trouble to call me here? What on earth do you want to do?"
After Lin Zirong had her personal maid clear everyone out of the hall, she added incense to the incense burner and said softly, "I came here to discuss something with you."
After saying that, Lin Zirong slowly walked in front of Wang Yanzhou. The faint fragrance emanating from her body mixed with the incense in the hall formed an indescribable smell.
The moment the scent lingered around his nose, Wang Yanzhou sensed something was wrong and stood up to leave: "If everything is fine, I'll take my leave."
According to Lin Zirong's plan, the tea he just drank was prepared long ago, and if it smelled like this, he should have reacted. Why didn't his face turn red or his heart beat fast, and his breathing didn't show any signs of disorder.
“How could it be…”
Wang Yanzhou turned around and sneered, saying, "I was just a little more cautious before coming here. If Ah Chen knew about this, I would be dead."
Lin Zirong frowned, as if he had suffered a major blow, and asked, "How dare you be so defensive against me!"
"I'm not the only one I'm guarding against. Goodbye," Wang Yanzhou said. After making sure that there was no one outside the hall, he raised his foot but was stopped by Lin Zirong again.
"Don't you want to take back everything that originally belonged to you?"
Wang Yanzhou looked back at her impatiently and said, "It's mine. It's all in my hands. I don't remember anyone stealing anything from me."
Lin Zirong refused to accept this. She had worked so hard to plan all this for him: "This throne should have been yours. The Queen went to so much trouble to send you back to Qingliang Valley, wasn't it just to let you bide your time and make a comeback!"
Wang Yanzhou didn't know what was going on with Lin Zirong. The Lin Zirong he knew before wasn't like this. With her intelligence and beauty, now that she was in the palace, she could do whatever she wanted. She had already lost her freedom in this golden cage, so why bother worrying about those irrelevant things about those outside the palace? "Haha, you're wrong. What my mother despised most was the position of empress."
Lin Zirong smiled bitterly and said, “…I have already promised Nanyue that every time the emperor comes, I will add some good things to the spices in the palace.”
Wang Yanzhou was stunned. Is this woman crazy? The throne of the crown prince is vacant. If something happens to Emperor Gan Zhao at this time, wouldn’t the whole country be in chaos and Daliang will be handed over to others? "Do you know what you are doing?"
From childhood to adulthood, Lin Zirong never considered herself inferior to others. She had always believed that with her parents' open-minded attitude, she would have a better ending than other women from aristocratic families. But who knew, in the end, it wouldn't be the same. Her future was already bleak the moment she entered the palace: "I know, I know that in the end, they will definitely not support you as agreed. I only know that as soon as he dies, you will have the best chance, whether you like it or not."
Wang Yanzhou couldn't help but shook his head: "You are really crazy, hand over the antidote."
Lin Zirong raised his head and laughed, "Antidote. When I started to give the drug, I even took myself into account. Why would I ask them for the antidote?"
Wang Yanzhou was stunned for a moment. There was no antidote, but it didn't matter. He still had his mind set: "...hand over the poison."
Hearing this, Lin Zirong smiled charmingly: "Why don't you find it yourself in my palace."
"Heh," Wang Yanzhou sneered and walked away without looking back, not playing by the rules at all.
Before Wang Yanzhou even left the palace, he ran into Mo Yu head-on. Why did he spot Mo Yu so immediately? Perhaps it was because of his elegant and graceful movements.
Wang Yanzhou saw Mo Yu stop in front of him and rushed over: "Big Brother, why are you here?"
Mo Yu looked at him with a constipated look on his face, pinching his nose, and said, "I'm entrusted with this. What's that smell on you? It stinks."
Wang Yanzhou probably guessed that it was Tang Chen who asked him to come. He bowed to Mo Yu and said, "I have to go out of the city for something. Senior Brother, please tell Tang Chen that I am fine."
Mo Yu pinched his nose and waved his hand, saying, "You're wrong. It wasn't Tang Chen who asked me to come. So you should go back and talk to him yourself. I have something else to do, so I'll leave first. By the way, you'd better take a shower before you go back."
"..." Wang Yanzhou stared at the direction Mo Yu was running towards, thinking for a moment, then, with a serious expression, he brought his sleeve to his nose. The smell wasn't bad, but perhaps a little too fragrant and a bit overpowering.
When Wang Yanzhou sneaked into the Forbidden Palace, Wang Nianqing took the woman who looked like Tang Chen and shuttled across the rooftops, circling back and forth to avoid pursuit. After making sure they had shaken off the little tail, Wang Nianqing followed the route the woman had given her and went to the dilapidated temple outside the city.
In front of the dilapidated temple, a group of people in flowing white robes were guarding an empty sedan chair. When they saw her appear, they immediately came forward and surrounded the two of them.
"Miss."
The woman bowed slightly to Wang Nianqing, nodded, and said, "My dear, I will take my leave now. Thank you very much."
"Goodbye."
