Chapter 139 The concubine who died young in the novel "The Emperor Takes His Minister's Wi
In the palace, not to mention Emperor Kangning summoning Wen Yingchen, after Song Xue'an was controlled by Nan Yi with the Obedience Gu, although she was unwilling, she still effectively protected Nan Yi.
Considering that Le Yan had mentioned how well Consort Song in the palace had treated her, Nan Yi removed the obedience-inducing Gu from her body before leaving.
To his surprise, as soon as he took it, Song Xue'an gritted her teeth and said, "Weren't you going to take Hongdou to see Leyan? Take me with you, or I will definitely let the Emperor know you exist!"
Just kidding, she'll search for it herself in private, and there's absolutely no way she'll let Emperor Kangning get involved.
Otherwise, once the person is found, she won't have any connection to it.
The emotions swirling in Song Xue'an's eyes remained unseen by others.
Nan Yi really thought that whatever she said was the truth, so she immediately put the Obedience Gu back on Song Xue'an.
“You know nothing about what happened today.”
Once the order to control the Gu worms was given, even if Song Xue'an wanted to tell the story of today, she couldn't.
This left Song Xue'an, who was still conscious, deeply regretful.
Hongdou spoke up quietly from the side, "Well, actually, I think Miss would also like to see the Imperial Concubine."
After all, the Imperial Concubine was the first person to treat their young lady well.
Hongdou stared intently at Nanyi, and Song Xuean also cast a hopeful glance at her.
The two men stared at Nan Yi, who was stunned.
Le Yan might want to see Song Xue'an, but that doesn't mean they want to see the two of them together.
Nan Yi lowered his eyes slightly. Let alone the Holy Maiden, even he wouldn't want Le Yan's former close friends to appear in front of her.
In that case, where would they find a place to stand?
With a slight flicker in his eyes, Nan Yi said in a deep voice, "No, I can't take you with me."
He doesn't even want to bring Hongdou anymore.
Anyway, Leyan didn't ask him to bring Hongdou over.
Nan Yi took a step back, ignoring the stares of Song Xue'an and Hongdou, and immediately retreated.
Although there are still people in the palace investigating, it's much better than the chaotic scene at night, and he can leave now.
Watching Nan Yi leave without looking back, Hongdou's eyes widened. "Your Highness, he just left like that!"
She's no longer afraid; all Hongdou wants to do now is curse.
She still wants to see her young mistress!
Song Xue'an sighed, but said, "It's alright, let me think about it carefully, and I'll definitely figure out whose subordinate he is."
If she wasn't mistaken, the method that person used to restrain her was Gu magic, right?
So, they're from southern Xinjiang?
But when did people from the southern border start coming to the palace?
Song Xuean frowned deeply.
At this moment, Hibiscus and Forsythia entered the hall.
"Your Majesty, we have some information about the wife of Lord Wen, whom you ordered us to investigate."
Looking at the information presented by Mu Jin and the other person, Song Xue'an's phoenix eyes widened slightly, and she fell on the words "Liu Shi saved Old Madam Wen near Yunnan" and seemed to be deep in thought.
Southern Yunnan, also known as Southern Xinjiang, is located in this area, and since ancient times, when talking about Southern Xinjiang, there has always been talk of witchcraft.
In other words, this Liu family member is indeed suspicious.
The man in black who used witchcraft might have some connection with the Liu family.
Then he thought of Wen Yingchen's suspicious behavior and his friend, who had just been summoned by Emperor Kangning.
Song Xuean narrowed her eyes and glanced at Mu Jin, gesturing for her to come closer.
After giving a long explanation, Song Xue'an led Lianqiao and Hongdou out of the palace.

When Nan Yi returned, she saw Le Yan and Liu Chutang waiting in the courtyard.
He paused, then rushed forward, saying, "Miss, young lady."
Le Yan jumped up and grabbed his hand, asking repeatedly, "Nan Yi, how is Hong Dou? Have you seen her? Is she doing well? Why are you only coming back now? Did something happen?"
She asked too many questions, and Nan Yi didn't answer them all truthfully. She only picked out some and replied, "I saw her. In Changhua Palace, there was a palace maid named Hongdou by the side of Consort Song. She was very beautiful and had a round face. It's clear that she was living a very good life. You can rest assured."
Upon hearing that Hongdou was at Changhua Palace, Leyan immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
With Song Xuean taking care of Hongdou, she couldn't be more at ease.
Relieved, Le Yan smiled gratefully at Nan Yi: "Thank you, Nan Yi. It's so kind of you to make this trip for me. Are you tired? Do you want to go and rest?"
Seeing that Le Yan was being too nice to Nan Yi, Liu Chutang's face darkened. She stepped forward and subtly separated the two, gesturing to Nan Yi, "Yes, you haven't rested all night. Go and get some rest."
Nan Yi pursed her lips and silently withdrew.
Upon arriving at his residence, he subconsciously turned around and saw Liu Chutang embracing Le Yan, talking to her with her head down, exuding a possessive aura.
Nan Yi closed her eyes briefly, sighed, and then returned to her room, shutting the door tightly behind her.
Meanwhile, Le Yan looked at Liu Chu Tang and listened to her asking about her thoughts on the frontier.
"Yan Yan, would you like to see the scenery of the desert?"
"When you're feeling better, how about I take you to travel the world?"
Liu Chutang was originally a person with a strong desire for power and ambition. In her boring life, she only wanted to challenge herself and seize supreme power.
Now, in her boring life, she has found an interesting person, and she has put everything else aside, focusing solely on this person in front of her.
Looking at Le Yan, Liu Chutang's eyes softened. She no longer wanted to plot Emperor Kangning's power grab; she only wanted to take the person in front of her to travel around this beautiful land and appreciate all the wonders of the world.
Le Yan stared at her blankly, her mind flashing between images of Liu Chutang sitting on the dragon throne in a majestic phoenix robe and the gentle face of Liu Chutang before her. The images alternated, and she didn't know what to say.
She had an urge to ask Liu Chutang, "Didn't you want to be the most powerful person in the world? Why do you want to travel the world now?"
But she also clearly understood that the only difference was the addition of "her".
How virtuous and capable she is.
Le Yan sighed inwardly, then took Liu Chutang's hand and said, "Actually, whether you travel the world or not, it's up to you to be happy."
Liu Chutang's eyes lit up. "As long as I'm happy?"
Does this mean that you value her opinion more?
Yan Yan's feelings for her should be the same as hers for her, right?
