Chapter 621: The Cunning of Priest Suyuan

hand to him, “Shī Lí Yúan, since I’m already here, then just give me the bell first! Look at my wrist, it's so empty without even a bit of decoration, the bell would look perfect on me.” 。“It’s done,...The woman in the silver skirt told the palace maids of Northern Qi, "I hear that the new emperor of Northern Qi hasn't been married yet, so there probably aren't any concubines in the harem." 。“You are right,” the maid nodded. “Now, there are only two empresses governing the inner palace, and some of the late emperor’s concubines also reside here, but they live in relatively remote places and generally don’t come out.” 。"

The woman in the silver skirt nodded slightly, “Let's rest for a bit before visiting Empress Dowager,”

The palace maid smiled without saying anything, but Ye Hongzhuang felt a surge of anticipation about visiting the Empress Dowager.

" 。She particularly wanted to see Empress Li. She wanted to see what kind of attitude Empress Li had now, and she also wanted to find out if Empress Li knew that the current Sixth Prince was fake. 。If she doesn't know, then she can stand on the same side as Empress Li. 。If Empress Li knew, she would have to figure out the relationship between this Sixth Prince and the real Sixth Prince. She would also have to determine if Empress Li was going to give up on her former son or if she still longed for him. 。She still had one ace up her sleeve, the pregnant woman that Ye Fei Zhou had hidden. 。After Su Yuan's prince saved her, he didn't go straight into Lin'an City, but took a detour to the estate of Ye Fei Zhou's hidden people. 。Where is Zhuangzi Yaohongzhuang had already asked Ye Fei Zhou, but now that he has been controlled by Su Yuan, the Crown Prince, and hidden somewhere, waiting for her to go. 。That is the only child of the true Sixth Prince. As long as Empress Dowager Li still remembers her son, she would never be indifferent to that child. 。She only waited for the woman to give birth to the child, then she would have a good talk with Empress Li. 。According to the palace maids, the guest's courtyard was almost reached. Just a short distance further, after a turn, one could enter the alleyway leading to the Guest Quarters. 。Just then, Ye Hongzhuang saw an acquaintance. The person was also a maidservant, but she wasn't wearing palace maid attire. 。Because she was not a maidservant in the palace, but a close attendant to the fourth sister of a first-rank general's mansion. 。

Ye Hongzhuang's heart was filled with unease. How could Zhuier be here Could it be that Ye Wenyin had entered the palace

She started to panic, even though she had disguised herself and carefully checked her reflection to ensure that not even she could recognize herself before entering the palace.

But whenever she thought of Ye Wenyan also being in the palace, she couldn't help but feel afraid. 。After all, that night Wen Yan's methods are no longer like ordinary people. The Emperor bestowed upon her too many extraordinary abilities, and she can no longer fight against Wen Yan. 。The woman in silver at the front suddenly stopped, she turned back and glanced at Ye Hongzhuang, then followed the direction of Ye Hongzhuang's wavering gaze to Zhuier who was walking not far away. 。The maidservant leading the way kept walking until she realized no one was following her. She stopped and turned back to ask, "Why aren't you coming Are you taking a break Well, it makes sense. The Northern Qi palace is very large, even though I've never been to Suyuan, I've heard that the land of Suyuan isn't very big. It seems like you haven't traveled this far before, so let's take a break." 。The woman in silver skirt let out a cold snort, expressing her dissatisfaction, but she didn't dwell on it like the other palace maids. She simply pointed towards where Zhuier was, "There aren't any young ladies in the inner court Couldn't that girl in her teens be the concubine left behind by the former emperor of Bei Qi I'd heard that the current emperor of Bei Qi has three thousand beauties in his harem, so that girl must be one of them." 。The maidservant heard this and immediately frowned, correcting her: “What people mean by ‘three thousand beauties in the harem’ is just an exaggeration. How could there really be three thousand people Please don't project the preferences of Su Yuan onto Be Qi. We are different from your place.” 。As for your young lady, she is not a concubine in the palace, but a maidservant at an outer mansion. 。"A maidservant" the woman in silver asked, puzzled. "Why can a maidservant from an official residence just walk around the palace freely"The palace maid replied, "Because she is a close attendant of the fourth sister of the First Rank General's Mansion. The fourth sister will be the future empress and will also live in Yanhuagong in the future. So it's normal for her attendants to walk around the palace, just like the palace people in Yanhuagong can also walk around the palace." 。"

Oh 。The woman in the silver skirt nodded slightly, seeming to understand Ye Hongzhuang's panic. 。But she didn't intend to avoid this panic, instead, she beckoned the oncoming Zhuier with a wave of her hand, "Girl, come here and talk!"

The maidservant panicked, “What are you doing You’re a guest, guests should follow the rules of being a guest. I am currently leading you to the Guest Quarters Palace to rest. How can you be so overbearing, calling people over at random”

The woman in silver robes let out a cold snort, reaching out and patting the maidservant's arm, "Don't get worked up, I'm just talking to someone, it doesn't interfere..." 。"The maids didn't seem to mind either; just by being slapped like that, they felt it wasn't a big deal, and their attitudes softened as well." 。He even helped her shout to the girl, "Girl Zhuai, come here for a moment, we have something to tell you." 。She was very polite when she spoke to the young girl, but despite her politeness, she still helped the woman in silver clothes. 。The child was confused and walked over, but halfway there she realized something was wrong. 。Because the woman in silver passed by, she carried a scent – the same one that had wafted through the carriage window when they'd brushed past that strange cart earlier. 。She recalled the words of Ye Fei Zhou and the Third Prince, Su Yuan Ren... 。Take another look at that woman in the silver dress in the distance. She has deep-set eyes and a high nose, clearly not from the Central Plains. 。This must be Su Yuan, then But what does Su Yuan want her to do She walked towards the other person and stopped right in front of the woman in the silver dress. She looked at her boldly, scrutinizing every detail, and also glanced at the two maidservants following behind her. 。The two maids shared the same facial features as the woman in silver, but one had less sunken eye sockets than the other, appearing much more peaceful. Her scent was also fainter. 。This was her first time seeing a Suyuan person. Besides looking different from people from Beizi, she couldn't see any other problems. 。After seeing them, Zhu'er rushed forward and bowed to them politely, saying: "Though I don't know who you are, I still want to greet you. " 。“ The woman in silver skirt rushed toward her, smiling. “I’m Suyuan Kingdom’s Grand Priestess, people call me Amn” 。" The young girl was slightly surprised, but still asked again: "Greetings, High Priest." 。"

Amran nodded, without being too polite, and asked directly: "I heard you are the close-serving maid of the fourth sister of a first-rank general's mansion No wonder you are not wearing the clothes of a palace maid..." 。Ye Sijie is now renowned throughout the land. Everyone knows that she is the chosen future empress by the Emperor, and everyone also knows that she is the first beauty of Lin'an. I wonder if Amara will have the good fortune to meet her someday. 。"Young lady, is Sister Ye Si also in the palace" Zhu'er listened to Amnan's words, and didn't react much. She gradually accepted... from her initial rejection at first. 。She stared into Aman's eyes, the more she looked, the more she felt that Aman was really beautiful, especially with this silver shimmering dress, like a fairy, making people want to get close to her and look at her again and again. 。Aman was still laughing at her, and the more she laughed, the better Zhu'er felt about her. The more she laughed, the more Zhu'er felt like she had a whole bunch of things she wanted to tell her. 。But as soon as this thought arose, it was immediately pushed back by a powerful force. She had a moment of clarity, though it quickly returned to Amara's world, and she no longer had the desire to talk to Amara endlessly. 。However, in response to Amian's previous question, she did answer, "My elder sister is not in the palace. Only I entered the palace, following along with Lian Shi, the official from Yan Hua Palace." 。I just went to Empress Dowager Yu's place and am now on my way back to Yanhuagong. 。"I wonder, High Priestess Suyuan, what brings you to call me here"

Amara smiled. "Nothing much, really. I just found you to be different from the other palace ladies, so I was curious and wanted to have a word with you."

Perhaps this is fate. In just a few words, I feel a strong connection with you. Would you be willing to accompany me to my temporary residence for a cup of tea and some casual conversation 。We are new here and do not understand many of the customs and etiquette of the Northern Qi. If the lady is not too bothered, please instruct us, so that we do not make a fool of ourselves in the palace these few days due to our lack of knowledge of proper decorum. 。" Upon hearing this, Zhu'er immediately nodded. "I'd be happy to serve you," 。" , and following Aman and his group they headed toward the Guest Palace. 。The maidservant leading the way didn't seem to find anything amiss. But Ye Hongzhuang was shocked. She hadn't expected Su Yuan to be so powerful, that he could captivate this young girl with just a few words, making her obedient and compliant. 。She knew very well how loyal Yue'er was to Ye Wen, if Su Yuan, the high priest, could find a way to make Yue'er betray him and extract information from her, they would gain a lot of valuable intelligence. 。She hadn't figured out yet what means Amna had used to control Zhuier. It couldn't be that a few words could make someone obey, could it Wouldn't that mean letting her run wild Wasn't that comparable to the abilities of an emperorThe lunch for Prince Su Yuan was still ongoing, Zhuier followed Amna to the guest palace. At this time, Ye Wenyan and Shi Liyuan were walking down the mountain step by step, completely unaware of what was happening in the capital. 。At this time, in the city of Lin'an, there was another place that was very lively, namely the Duke of Su's mansion. 。Ye Jia's second sister brought the fifth sister to Sushu Palace, this matter has already been discussed by people in the inner city all morning. 。Not only were women who stayed home discussing it, even those officials who weren't in court today joined in, starting to analyze why Ye Erjie, who had always been so unremarkable, suddenly jumped to the forefront and began attacking the Su Wangfu. 。This matter still has to start from this morning. 。

By the time night had stretched into a long one, Fourth Sister Ye had already woken up. Early in the morning, she pulled Ye Chulian out of bed and watched her wash and change clothes. After she was dressed, she dragged her out of the East Residence without even letting her eat breakfast and headed straight for the Duke of Su's mansion.

Ye Chu Lian's heart ached with pain. She thought to herself, "I didn't even eat dinner last night, and this morning you still wouldn't let me eat! Sister, aren't you trying to kill me the moment you come back to life" Her life was so miserable. Before, she had always longed to play with her fourth sister, but her fourth sister never took her along... >>> 。Now she didn't want to play with this sister who was either four or two, but why couldn't she shake hero steps and reached out to pull Ye Fei Zhou back. 。Ye Chu Lian just watched Quan Qing Yun pull her second brother, her second brother pulled her, and the three of them remained in a stalemate in the f...
