Lin Yajun had been looking for a suitable opportunity to check the drone's monitoring records.
She only had a chance to be alone when Zhao Canchen went to the bathroom to take a shower.
Taking advantage of this moment, Lin Yajun entered the house, slipped into the space, and immediately pulled up the surveillance footage.
When she saw all the footage from the surveillance camera, she was completely stunned.
The surveillance cameras captured everything that happened at the Prime Minister's residence, as well as the secrets reported by the Prime Minister and Chief Bodyguard Ma.
Lin Yajun exclaimed in shock, "The Duke of Enguo actually sent his pregnant son's concubine into the palace! Is he so eager to send his whole family to their deaths?!"
Soon a gloating smile appeared on her face, and she said softly, "None of these people are good people. Let me just quietly watch you fight to the death."
Lin Yajun felt no goodwill towards the Emperor, the Empress, or the people from the Duke of Enguo's mansion, believing they all deserved their fate.
After a moment's thought, Lin Yajun decided to add fuel to the fire of this struggle, so that the royal family would fight amongst themselves and stop sending assassins to kill Zhao Canchen.
"You two go ahead and fight, let my husband and I enjoy our honeymoon," Lin Yajun muttered.
She knew that Zhao Canchen was in a very bad situation. In addition to the occasional assassination attempts, he was not allowed to leave the capital.
These people not only restricted Zhao Canchen's freedom, but also constantly put him in a life-or-death situation.
Therefore, Lin Yajun wished she could get rid of these people quickly to avenge her husband.
Since the Duke's Mansion and the Emperor are currently fighting each other, she will take the opportunity to add fuel to the fire and make the dog-eat-dog fight even more intense.
She muttered, "That's perfect, it saves me from killing dogs and getting covered in blood."
Lin Yajun tilted her head and thought for a moment before making a decision, "Hasn't the Prince of Lu been sending people to assassinate my husband? Then I'll start with you, you big fat pig!"
So she whispered, "Take away all the valuables of the Duke of Lu's mansion." Before she finished speaking, boxes and boxes of valuables suddenly appeared on the ground in the space, piled up like mountains, dazzling the eyes.
Looking at the valuables, Lin Yajun nodded in satisfaction, a slight smile playing on her lips, and said expectantly, "You'd better fight hard!" With that, she clapped her hands with a cheerful laugh and quickly disappeared from the spatial dimension.
Just as Lin Yajun vanished from the spatial dimension, Zhao Canchen finished his bath and walked in.
Seeing this, Lin Yajun quickly stepped forward, her face beaming with a gentle smile, and said sweetly, "Achen, let me dry your hair."
Hearing Lin Yajun's voice, Zhao Canchen turned around, looked at her radiant smile, and softly replied, "Okay, Ajun." His gaze fell on Lin Yajun, filled with deep affection.
Lin Yajun gently picked up a soft, dry towel and wiped Zhao Canchen's long hair that fell over his shoulders.
Her movements were gentle and delicate, as if she were caressing a fragile piece of porcelain.
Zhao Canchen sat there quietly, his eyes slightly closed, feeling Lin Yajun's gentleness.
His lips unconsciously curved upwards, revealing a happy smile. The feeling of being carefully cared for by someone he loved made him feel incredibly warm and comfortable.
After a while, Zhao Canchen opened his eyes and looked at Lin Yajun's focused expression, his heart filled with emotion.
He said softly, "I'll wash your hair and give you a bath later, Ah Jun."
Upon hearing this, Lin Yajun's smile widened even more.
She nodded gently and replied, "Okay."
Their interaction, though simple, was filled with deep affection. At that moment, time seemed to stand still for them; only their existence mattered most.
The newlywed couple were deeply in love, enjoying every sweet moment together.
Inside and outside the capital, howling winds and torrential rain filled the air. This sudden and severe weather instilled a sense of inexplicable unease and oppression.
Prime Minister Xiao was extremely anxious. Ignoring the terrible weather, he led a team of guards to the palace that very night. He used the excuse of an urgent report from the army to gain entry into the palace and went straight to the Imperial Study.
When Prime Minister Xiao met the Emperor, the Emperor was sitting at his desk with a displeased expression, clearly very unhappy that he had entered the palace so late.
"What business do you have to see me so late?" The Emperor frowned and shouted at Prime Minister Xiao, "Can't we talk about it tomorrow?"
Prime Minister Xiao looked flustered. He knew the seriousness of the matter and dared not be negligent in the slightest. He quickly bowed and said, "Your Majesty, I have something of utmost importance to report."
"No matter how urgent the military situation is, you should report it to the Ministry of War. Why do you come to me and say it? Do you expect me to send troops overnight?" the Emperor scolded impatiently, his voice revealing obvious impatience.
Seeing the Emperor's fury, Prime Minister Xiao was terrified, cold sweat beading on his forehead. He took a deep breath, composed himself, and then said, "Your Majesty, this matter is of great importance, and I must report it to you personally."
The Emperor was slightly surprised, and waved his hand, signaling Prime Minister Xiao to continue.
After calming himself down slightly, Prime Minister Xiao continued, "Your Majesty, this matter concerns the fate of our dynasty and is extremely urgent!"
The Emperor's face grew increasingly gloomy. He impatiently interrupted Prime Minister Xiao, "Speak quickly if you have something to say. I promised the Empress that I would stay in the Empress's palace. Don't waste my time."
"Your Majesty, I risked my life to come before you because it concerns the Empress." Prime Minister Xiao knelt down and pointed to a man behind him. "He is a guard of the Duke of Enguo. According to him, the Duke of Enguo sent two of the Heir Apparent Hu's pregnant concubines into the palace, where they are now serving as maids to the Empress."
The Emperor frowned deeply, his gaze falling on Chief Guard Ma, scrutinizing his face and clothing.
After identification, the Emperor recognized Chief Guard Ma's identity—he was indeed from the Duke of En's mansion.
A sense of doubt welled up in the Emperor's heart, and he asked in bewilderment, "What exactly is the Duke of En's intention?" However, before he could finish speaking, the Emperor suddenly stood up as if struck by lightning. His face instantly turned ashen, as if all the color had drained from his skin.
The Emperor's eyes widened, his lips trembling slightly. He finally understood the Duke of En's true intentions. This discovery enraged him, and his anger erupted like a volcano.
"A wolf in sheep's clothing!" the Emperor said through gritted teeth, his voice filled with anger and disappointment. He never expected that the Duke of Enguo would be so treacherous and cunning, plotting against him.
Despite the emperor's extreme anger, he couldn't think of a solution for the moment. He felt as if he were trapped in an inescapable snare, and the anxiety and helplessness in his heart almost overwhelmed him.
"Prime Minister, what should we do?" The Emperor turned to Prime Minister Xiao and asked anxiously.
Seeing this, Prime Minister Xiao quickly advised, "Your Majesty, please do not be anxious. In my humble opinion, you might as well go to the Empress's palace first and hear what she has to say. After all, the Empress has a close relationship with the Duke of Enguo's mansion, and perhaps she can provide Your Majesty with some useful clues."
