However, when Lin Zan looked at Jun Beiyu's respectful look towards Wang Lanye, he felt something was very wrong.

It's like the calm before the storm, with undercurrents surging.

Such a farce naturally made the Wang family very dissatisfied, but today was Wang Lanye’s wedding day after all, so they did not make a big fuss.

However, the person from the Wang family who came to escort the bride seemed to have a few words with Jun Beiyu after he came back, and both of them looked unhappy.

After the wedding, Lin Zhan got on the carriage back to the palace, but his brows were furrowed in thought.

"Si Xueyi has no one to rely on, so she lives by relying on Jun Beiyu. But logically speaking, Si Xueyi has always been a white lotus, and she shouldn't be so arrogant on the wedding day today."

Lin Zhan murmured to himself, the more he thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong. Could it be that after the plot in the original book changed, the personalities of the characters in the original book also changed?

Thinking about these questions, Lin Zhan felt a splitting headache.

After returning to the palace, Lin Zan told Liu Qiuchan what happened at the wedding.

Hearing Jun Beiyu's actions, Liu Qiuchan looked as if she was not surprised. "The Wang family is a clean stream of civil servants in the court, which is completely different from powerful officials like the Qin family."

"The Qingliu family cares most about reputation. If Prince Heng treats the Wang family girl badly at the wedding and promotes an adopted daughter of the Qin family, the Wang family might get angry and disobey the order again and take Wang Lanye back home."

Hearing her say this, Lin Zan nodded in understanding, saying that in the end, what Jun Beiyu cared about most was power, and women were just icing on the cake.

"But this Si Xueyi is really bold. She dares to live in Prince Heng's mansion even though she has no official status." Liu Qiuchan chuckled, then waved her hand and asked the palace maid to take the sour apricots away.

Although Lin Zan knew a lot about the plot of the original book, he only had a vague understanding of the various forces in the court.

In addition, the current plot development has nothing to do with the original plot, so Lin Zan decided to understand the forces in the court in order to deal with emergencies.

After returning to Hanfang Pavilion, Lin Zhan wrote a letter to Baitong Pavilion. Baitong Pavilion was very quick and sent her a map of the distribution of power in the court two days later.

The forces in the court are now roughly divided into three groups. One is the force headed by the crown prince, which is also the largest of the three forces.

Upon learning about this, Lin Zhan couldn't help but nodded with satisfaction. Jun Beiqi's efforts were not in vain, and it was worth it for her to plan for him since he was a child.

The second force is naturally the powerful officials headed by Jun Beiyu. They are scheming and scheming for power in the court. Most of them have no real talent, but they get to the top by flattering others, and they are trusted by the emperor.

What surprised Lin Zhan the most was the third force, which was actually headed by Concubine De, a hidden and most powerful force that controlled the army.

However, over the years, Concubine De has been very low-key, and the fourth prince Jun Anqing, whom she gave birth to, has no intention of participating in the battle for the throne.

Therefore, over time, everyone ignored this force, but it was clearly investigated by Baitong Pavilion.

And until now, the men in Empress Defei's family are stationed at the border, protecting the peace of Northern Qi, and are very popular among the people.

If Jun Anqing really wanted to seize power and usurp the throne, he would be the one most likely to succeed.

However, over the years, Concubine De has adhered to the principle of keeping out of matters that do not concern her, and has also restrained Jun Anqing from getting too involved in court affairs.

Gradually, Jun Anqing became an idle prince in the court and was very comfortable.

After Lin Zhan finished reading the power distribution map, he couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief. "From this point of view, sooner or later, the Crown Prince and Prince Heng will do their best to win over Jun Anqing."

This life is completely different from Jun Anqing’s previous life, and Lin Zan doesn’t know which side Jun Anqing will stand on in the end.

Just when Lin Zan was thinking about this matter, Jun Anqing actually came.

"Li Zi, I got a good thing. I'll take you to the Imperial Garden to see it." Jun Anqing rushed in.

Subconsciously, Lin Zhan crumpled up the power distribution map and threw it into the corner of the room.

"What good thing makes you so happy?" Lin Zan blinked his eyes to conceal his feelings.

Jun Anqing, who had always been careless, did not notice her abnormality. He took her hand and led her into the imperial garden.

The two came to the imperial garden, and Lin Zan discovered that Jun Anqing had obtained several talking birds.

"These birds can speak human language. Don't you think it's rare?" For ancient people, such talking birds were naturally very rare.

But for Lin Zan, who came from a different time, she had seen it many times in the zoo and didn't find it strange.

But when she saw Jun Anqing's eager look to present his treasure, Lin Zan had no choice but to cooperate with him and revealed a gleam of interest.

"Can you really speak? Tell me."

As soon as Lin Zhan finished speaking, Jun Anqing straightened his chest, then took out a small stick next to him and poked the parrot in the cage.

The parrot started to speak after being frightened, flapping its wings and shouting.

"I am pleased with you, I am pleased with you."

The loud voice echoed throughout the imperial garden, and Lin Zhan was stunned.

Jun Anqing coughed lightly and said to Lin Zhan with hope, "You heard it clearly."

And the parrot in the cage is still shouting that it loves you.

It's just that the tone of these three words changed slightly when spoken by the parrot, but Lin Zhan heard them clearly.

Especially when seeing Jun Anqing's hopeful eyes, Lin Zan seemed to understand something.

Just when Lin Zhan didn't know how to respond, a very magnetic voice came from behind the two of them.

"Where did Fourth Brother find these two talking birds? But their words are unclear and I don't know what they mean."

It was Jun Beiqi who walked over, followed by Jun Beiyu who had just got married.

When Jun Anqing saw his two royal brothers suddenly appear and interrupt his plan, his face turned dark.

He actually walked directly in front of Lin Zhan, shook her body and said, "Li Zi, I don't care if they heard it clearly or not, you must have heard it clearly."

"Uh, my ears haven't been working well lately, so I didn't hear clearly. Then I remembered I had something else to do, so I left first." Lin Zan pushed Jun Anqing away awkwardly, then turned and left, ignoring the voice of Jun Anqing shouting behind him.

Jun Anqing wanted to catch up, but was stopped by Jun Beiqi, who stared at him seriously and said, "Fourth brother, why are you in such a hurry to go? Why don't you have a good chat with me?"
