“Let’s go, Second Sister, Third Sister,” Kang Qingping said. She patted Kang Qingrui and Kang Qingxin’s shoulders before she turned around and left.

Kang Qingrui and Kang Qingxin quickly followed Kang Qingqing.

In the dark night, the three women’s hearts burned with excitement.

“Sister, our courtyard is too small. No matter what, we’re guests. How could they arrange for the three of us to stay in one courtyard?”

“Don’t worry. We’ll soon have a big courtyard to live in…”

At one relay station.

Feng Wei Zhou, the Crown Prince of Tianxia, raised his wine cup and toasted

Yu Yongnian.

“Thank you, General Yu, for escorting me to Xichu.”

“Your Royal Highness, you’re being too polite. I’m just an official. It’s my duty to protect you,” Yu Yongnian said expressionlessly. He glanced at the cup of wine in Feng Weizhou’s hand before he picked up the cup of tea on the table and drank it.

Seeing Yu Yongnian’s actions that disrespected him, Feng Weizhou’s expression darkened.

‘The Yu family has almost fallen, but this Yu Yongnian, who opened up his own residence, is very impressive. He’s young, but he has a large number of troops in hand. There are whispers in court that he’s just like Ninth Imperial Uncle. It’s just that Ninth Imperial Uncle is a member of the imperial family, and he’s not. Regardless, if any of the princes obtain his support, it’ll be like adding wings to a tiger.’

‘I heard that Fifth Brother failed to obtain Ninth Imperial Uncle’s support so he’s been trying to meet Yu Yongnian in private. Also, Third Brother seems to have a good relationship with Yu Yongnian. If any of them manage to pull Yu Yongnian to their side, it’ll affect my position as the Crown Prince…’

With all these thoughts in mind, Feng Weizhou could only suppress his dissatisfaction and smile at Yu Yongnian. After a while, he sighed emotionally and said, “When Yunxi was still alive, she often mentioned you to me.”

Feng Weizhou knew that Yu Yongnian and Yu Yunxi had a good relationship. After Yu Yunxi’s death, Yu Yongnian did not give up and secretly searched for her whereabouts.

Hence, Feng Weizhou wanted to use Yu Yunxi to ease his relationship with Yu Yongnian.

Unexpectedly, Yu Yongnian did not fall for it at all. He looked at Feng Weizhou and said bluntly with no expression on his face, “Your Royal Highness, my sister doesn’t have a good relationship with you. Why would she mention me to you?”

Feng Weizhou’s expression. He felt as though he was going to die from anger. He struggled to maintain the kind of expression on his face before he said with a sigh, “Back then, Yunxi’s mother saved my mother. They even planned for me to marry Yunxi. If Ninth Imperial Uncle didn’t need to marry Yunxi to get rid of his bad luck, I would’ve become your brother-in-law. If so, perhaps Yunxi would not have died…”

Yu Yongnian really wanted to sneer when he heard these words.

‘Does he think I’m unaware of what happened back then? He and his mother are both ingrates! Now that Sister is missing, he’s shamelessly distorting the truth.’

“Your Royal Highness, my brother-in-law is the Prince Regent. Please don’t say such words in the future,” Yu Yongnian said.

“You…”

Feng Weizhou almost lost control of his temper.

‘This Yu Yongnian is too stubborn!’

“Your Royal Highness, I’m tired. I’ll return to my room to rest first,” Yu Yongnian said. Without waiting for Feng Weizhou’s reply, he turned around and left.

After Yu Yongnian left, Feng Weizhou pushed everything on the table to the floor, venting his anger.

“Impudent! How dare he act like that?”

‘Yu Yongnian is really audacious! He actually dares to disrespect me, the Crown Prince, time and time again just because he has military power!’

Feng Weizhou said to his secret guard with a dark expression, “Hurry up and investigate if Yu Yunxi is dead. If she’s not, I want her dead!”

‘Since Yu Yongnian cares so much about Yu Yunxi, I’ll kill her!’

Suddenly…

“What does the Crown Prince want to do to my Princess Consort?”

Feng Weizhou’s voice stiffened, and he trembled immediately although the other party had spoken in a light-hearted tone. He was naturally very familiar with the voice. The voice had appeared in his nightmares too many times.

Feng Weizhou turned around stiffly and saw Feng Yili slowly walking in.

Feng Yili’s gaze was cold, and his momentum was even more imposing than the last time they had met.

‘IN-ninth, Ninth Imperial Uncle! Why are you here?” Feng Weizhou called out. He no longer sounded as confident as before.

“There’s a state banquet in Xichu, right? As the Prince Regent of Tianxia, I naturally have to come and take a look,” Feng Yili said flippantly.

“B-but, but when I left Tianxia, you were still in the Prince Regent’s Residence…” Feng Weizhou said.

Feng Yili found a seat and sat down. He rested his chin on his hand lazily as he looked at Feng Weizhou and said, “That person in the residence is just a substitute. Don’t you and your father already know that?”

Feng Weizhou forced himself to remain calm. “I-is that so? How would

Imperial Father and I know that?”

It had been months since Feng Yili had locked himself up in the Prince Regent’s

Residence. Many people assumed that he was overcome by grief after Yu Yunxi’s death, but Feng Weizhou and his father were suspicious. They suspected that the person in the Prince Regent’s Residence was a fake, but they had no evidence.

Feng Weizhou did not expect that Feng Yili would take the initiative to admit it. After a moment, he said, “Ninth Imperial Uncle, you left a fake in the residence and deceived everyone, including Imperial Father. What you did can be considered deceiving the Emperor.” n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

‘I don’t know why Ninth Imperial Uncle took the initiative to give us something to use against him, but this is good…’ Feng Weizhou thought to himself excitedly.

Alas, Feng Weizhou’s excitement was short-lived. He heard Feng Yili ask calmly, “Even if I deceived the Emperor, so what?”

‘S-so what? How can Ninth Imperial Uncle be so bold? It’s only been months since we last met, but his style of doing things has grown even more terrifying…’

Feng Weizhou felt dizzy and was about to collapse.

Feng Yili stared at Feng Weizhou as he said slowly and firmly, “The position of

Emperor has always belonged to the capable. If the Emperor and his heir are not worthy, what’s wrong with pulling them down?”

‘What?!’

Feng Weizhou raised his head and looked at Feng Yili in shock.

‘Does Ninth Imperial Uncle plan rebel and usurp the throne?’

Feng Weizhou’s subordinates were so frightened that they fell to their knees.

These were not words they could listen to.

Meanwhile, Jiang Ying and Jiang Chuan exchanged a look.

‘His Royal Highness… seems to have become even more arrogant than before…’

“After catching up with the Crown Prince, I’m a little tired. I’m leaving,” Feng Yili said as he stood up and walked to the door.

However, just as Feng Yili was about to cross the threshold, he suddenly thought of something. He paused in his footsteps and said without looking back, “The room on the left looks good. I want it.”

Jiang Ying coughed lightly and said in a low voice, “Your Royal Highness, that’s the Crown Prince’s room.”

“Oh, it’s the Crown Prince’s room,” Feng Yili said lightly. Then, in the next moment, his voice turned cold as he said, “If that’s the case, move the Crown

Prince’s belongings out. I’ll be staying in that room tonight.”

With that, Feng Yili walked out.

Although Feng Yili had left, the others were still frightened and oppressed by his imposing aura..
