In the Imperial Palace, Yan Xiaoxi sat at the table with a faint arc on his mouth and looked at the letter on the table. This is the original letter Nangong Lin wrote to Yan Xiaoxi. As for Yan Xiaoxi, it was the poison that completely destroyed her.

She picked up the letter and read it silently in her heart. It was written like this.

Xi'er:

I have to go back to the south water country now. It's urgent. Please forgive me if you can't even tell me. Smart, you should be able to understand my difficulties. The West Flower country is attacking, and the East mirror country is ready to move. I need you to stabilize Dong Youjie. Once you leave with me, it will arouse his suspicion, and the south water country will face a negative enemy.

Besides, I don't want to hurt you.

Xi'er, be careful of Yan Shuzi.

I'll find out the rest and explain it to you in detail.

Please trust me, just as I trust you.

I love you, Nangong Lin.

A letter is simple and clear enough to resolve the contradiction between them.

If you want to see this letter, Yan Xiaoxi and Nangong Lin will be able to clear up their differences.

Unfortunately, the real letter didn't fall into her hand.

Yan Shuzi had long guessed that Nangong Lin began to doubt her before she left the Marquis house and went missing. She asked crystal to put medicine in the tea. The medicine brought back from the western regions was colorless and tasteless. Even Yan Xiaoxi couldn't notice it. Otherwise, at the farewell banquet that day, she wouldn't have been hit by her overpowering drug and was sent to Dong Youjie's bed.

However, with the letter she gave Yan Xiaoxi, even if Nangong Lin saw through the trick, his letter was more destructive than hers. She waited to see Yan Xiaoxi's grief.

"Is the emperor in the study?" Yan Shuzi glanced at the maid beside her and asked.

"Yes." the palace maid is Yan Shuzi's confidant. She knows her things like the back of her hand. Similarly, the life of her family is in her hand and she can't betray her.

"Go and find the emperor," said Yan Shuzi, and she left for the imperial study.

Nangong Lin's letter is very useful. On the one hand, it can crack down on Yan Xiaoxi, on the other hand, it can also give her extra points in front of dongyoujie.

"Emperor, imperial concubine Shu wants to see you." the eunuch in charge told her.

"No." dongyoujie reviewed the memorial without looking up.

The eunuch in charge nodded, withdrew silently, and politely told Yan Shuzi: "Princess Shu, the emperor's government affairs are busy, and no one can be seen."

Early in the morning, Yan Xiaoxi knew that dongyoujie would not see her. She pinched Mei with a smile and continued to ingratiate herself. "Can you please tell my father-in-law for the palace that what the palace wants to say is related to Yan Xiaoxi?"

"Princess Lin?" the eunuch in charge looked at Yan Shuzi in surprise and naturally understood Yan Xiaoxi's position in dongyoujie's heart.

"Yes." obviously Yan Shuzi didn't want to think much.

"OK." the eunuch in charge agreed. He felt that as long as Yan Xiaoxi was involved, there might not be a change.

Indeed, as soon as dongyoujie heard about Yan Shuzi, he immediately summoned Yan Shuzi.

Yan Shuzi walked into the imperial study bitterly, stood in front of the desk and leaned slightly, "see the emperor."

"Go ahead." dongyoujie doesn't want to spend too much time with Yan Shuzi. He knows that she planned the last time Yan Xiaoxi fell into the water, and the murderer behind the farewell banquet is also him. Unexpectedly, in order to please Yan Xiaoxi, he married a snake hearted woman. He originally wanted to get close to Yan Xiaoxi through her. Later, he found that the relationship between the two sisters was bad, she lost her effect on him, and was put in the cold palace, I don't want to see her again.

Yan Shuzi knew Dongyou Jenna's original intention to be a concubine. In the twinkling of an eye, she fell from heaven to hell. The difference was so great that she couldn't help but feel heartache.

It is said that the imperial industry is the most affectionate and ruthless. She has really seen it.

"My concubine came to tell the emperor something." Yan Shuzi didn't prepare to sell off and directly explained her intention.

"Oh." dongyoujie lightly agreed and glanced up at Yan Shuzi.

Her face is still so simple and pollution-free that people can't help but feel compassionate. Only after contact can they really know that everything is her disguise. The woman's heart is not as pure and broken as the surface.

"Emperor, do you want to unify the four countries?" Yan Shuzi's flat tone aroused ripples in dongyoujie's heart.

No one ever dared to ask this question in front of him, no minister, no imperial concubine, and no queen.

Only he knew that the reunification of the four countries was his dream.

"Shufei, you are so brave that the harem can't do politics." dongyoujie slapped the table angrily.

Yan Shuzi flopped down and knelt on the cold ground. She quickly said, "the emperor calm down. Please listen to my concubine."

Her voice trembled with fear and was obviously frightened by dongyoujie's anger.

Dongyoujie narrowed his eyes, walked down from the Dragon chair, stopped in front of Yan Shuzi, reached out and pinched her chin, and said coldly, "don't talk nonsense."

"Emperor, my concubine wants to tell you that it's a good time to attack Nanshui country." Nangong Lin clearly stated in his letter that he didn't want to be attacked on the back, indicating that he didn't have the confidence to deal with the attack of Dongjing country and Xihua country at the same time.

The defeat of the last war is vivid. This time they want to get it back with interest.

"What does this mean?" dongyoujie took back his hand and looked at Yan Shuzi with questioning eyes.

"My concubine and minister told me that Nangong Lin left Dongjing state today and hurried back because of the sudden attack of Xihua state. At this time, the emperor is surprised and you can please caitou." Yan Shuzi's words are for the sake of dongyoujie.

"Why should I believe your words?" dongyoujie is a suspicious person and won't easily listen to anyone's words.

He did not receive the news, Yan Shuzi actually knew, which inevitably made people confused.

"Emperor, I have no reason to lie to you, don't I? It's not good for me." Yan Shuzi knelt on the ground with a sincere expression.

"I'll think about it." if Yan Shuzi's words are true, it is indeed a once-in-a-lifetime good opportunity. He can't give up.

however

Why didn't he believe what she said?

Yan Shuzi never thought that dongyoujie would react like this. His most rational approach is not to investigate the truth and plan the next step, rather than questioning her here.

She wanted to show Nangong Lin's letter to dongyoujie. She remembered that there were other contents on it, so she had to give up.

"Emperor, time waits for no one." Yan Shuzi continued to persuade her not to die.

She wants to see Yan Xiaoxi have nothing, lose the people she loves, lose everything.

"You go down." dongyoujie insisted on seeing him and always held a skeptical attitude towards Yan Shuzi's words.

Yan Shuzi got up, looked at dongyoujie reluctantly and said, "emperor, if you want to get Yan Xiaoxi, you must defeat Nangong Lin."

Leaving this sentence, she resolutely left.

Dongyoujie asks his confidant to find out whether Yan Shuzi's words are true. Before that, he is temporarily ready to watch the change without any action.
