Feng Mo Ran not only personally attended to Lord Mu's military affairs, but also wanted to bring Shen Nan Zhi's Xishuang Camp under his control.
There had been precedents before, but Mu Chenshuang hadn't expected such a sudden and frequent mobilization, sending her own people into Xishuang Camp. After all, it was a bit too blatant.
"If this is true, why don't you go directly to His Majesty?" Mu Chenshuang lowered her voice and said, "No matter how favored the Second Prince is, his outspokenness and disruption of military order mean that His Majesty doesn't care."
Shen Nan sighed and shook his head. The problem was exactly there.
In the past few days, he had tried to enter the palace alone to meet the emperor, but the eunuchs of Yunxi Palace had told him that the emperor would not see him.
The emperor finally attended court every few days, but his complexion looked really bad, he seemed a little listless, and even his words revealed a hint of irritability.
What's more, just the day before, an old minister was ordered to be imprisoned simply for speaking a few strong words to Feng Guche.
For a time, the entire court was filled with fear and unease, and no one dared to make any suggestions or point out any improprieties in the court or the military.
Shen Nanzhi originally wanted to step forward and report on the matter of Xishuang Camp, but Prime Minister Shen stopped him with a very stern look. Although Shen Nanzhi was unwilling, he could only give up.
Mu Chenshuang had not seen the Emperor for a long time, and was unaware of Feng Guche's current situation. Shen Nanzhi also did not intend to tell her these things.
Shen Nanzhi said dejectedly, "His Majesty has been unwell recently and is unable to submit memorials on these matters."
Although Shen Nanzhi only gave a simple explanation, Mu Chenshuang immediately understood.
After all, she knew about the Emperor's unusual condition even before she started treating the Empress Dowager. These days, she had only entered the palace to treat the Empress Dowager, but she did not expect that Feng Guche's condition would become more serious.
Mu Chenshuang lowered her head and pondered for a moment, when suddenly she had a bad feeling.
Since Feng Mo Ran's interest isn't in the position of Crown Prince, but rather in the dragon throne, it seems that Feng Gu Che's situation is truly dire.
It's likely that Feng Mo Ran has already drugged Feng Gu Che's food through that person in Yunxi Palace. Sooner or later, those drugs will unknowingly wear down Feng Gu Che's body and take his life.
Mu Chenshuang couldn't help but clench her hands tightly. She knew clearly that Feng Guche had fallen into Feng Mozhan's trap and was being watched closely. She probably couldn't treat Feng Guche and bring him back to his senses.
If that's the case, then she has to act even faster, while the emperor's body can still hold up and he's still lucid.
Thinking this, Mu Chenshuang leaned forward, cupped her hand in Shen Nanzhi's ear, and whispered something in his ear.
When Mu Chenshuang first leaned closer, her warm breath brushed against Shen Nanzhi's cheek, and he immediately widened his eyes, somewhat stunned.
After listening to Mu Chenshuang's next words, Shen Nanzhi, who had subconsciously clenched his hands, gradually calmed down. He even frowned, his pupils contracted, and he looked solemn and worried.
After a long while, Mu Chenshuang finally put down her hand, finished saying what she wanted to say, and sat up straight again.
"Is that really so?" Shen Nanzhi asked in a hoarse voice, his pupils widening as if he were suppressing some kind of surprise, yet his eyes were also full of worry, making one feel that he was also struggling internally.
