Luo Xiuran looked around anxiously. That thing was the key to his lock-picking skills after all.

“Where is it? Where did it go?”

“It’s in the Heavenly Prison,” Feng Yili replied flatly.

“It’s in the prison? Then I have to return to retrieve it!” Luo Xiuran muttered to himself, intending to return to the prison.

Feng Yili stopped Luo Xiuran, saying, “It’s useless. That thing has already been taken and used…”

“Huh? What do you mean?” Luo Xiuran was at a loss.

Yu Yunxi reacted first. She asked, shocked, “Are you saying that Liu Xiaolan has escaped from prison?”

Then, she quickly added, “No, with his personality, he wouldn’t escape, unless…”

“Unless he was influenced by Gao Shixuan,” Feng Yili said. Then, he asked the little bun seriously, “Junjin, you told Liu Xiaolan that I want Gao Shixuan to stay in prison, right?”

“Of course! I completed the mission you gave me!” the little bun said confidently as he patted his chest.

Feng Yili said, “Then after we left, Liu Xiaolan would definitely tell Gao Shixuan about this. With that, Gao Shixuan definitely wouldn’t be able to sit still…”

Realization dawned on Luo Xiuran at this moment, and he exclaimed in shock, “Yili, do you mean to say that it’s Gao Shixuan who’s escaped from prison?!”

“Yes.”

“She… She’s really bold! What will happen to Liu Xiaolan and Gao Zixiu if she escapes? Not only that, but all of us will be implicated by her!” Luo Xiuran said furiously.

“Don’t worry. She won’t be able to escape,” Feng Yili said.

Everyone turned to look at Feng Yili in unison.

Luo Xiuran asked directly, “Yili, don’t tell me that you’ve already expected Gao Shixuan to escape from prison so you’re prepared?”

“Yes.”

“Is this part of your plan when you brought us to the prison to persuade Liu Xiaolan?” Luo Xiuran continued to ask, gulping.

“Yes.”

“You, you…”

Luo Xiuran stuttered for a long time, but he did not know what to say.

“It’s true that my main goal is to persuade Liu Xiaolan. However, just words alone won’t wake Liu Xiaolan up. The best way is to let him see Gao Shixuan’s true colors so he can give up completely…” Feng Yili said stonily. He had long known what kind of person Gao Shixuan was, and he had tried to remind Liu Xiaolan many times, but Liu Xiaolan did not heed his words.

“I see. You really put in a lot of effort…” Luo Xiuran nodded in understanding.

At this moment, Jiang Ying walked in from outside. He reported solemnly, “Your Royal Highness, it’s just as you expected. Gao Shixuan escaped alone and is headed for the city gate now. However, she seems to have an accomplice helping her.”

“Continue to keep an eye on her. We have to find out the identity of her accomplice,” Feng Yili said.

“Yes, Your Royal Highness.”

After Jiang Ying left, Luo Xiuran could not help but ask, “So she has an accomplice? Who is it? Could it be Nan Xun?”

After all, Gao Shixuan was once a general of Nanyue. It was not entirely out of the realm of possibility for Nan Xun to help her.

“No. I’ve ordered people to keep an eye on Nan Xun. If there were any movements from him, I would’ve already received news about it. Gao Shixuan’s accomplice is not him,” Feng Yili said as he shook his head.

‘Not Nan Nun? Then who could it be?’

Everyone was puzzled.

Finally, Luo Xiuran waved his hand and said, “Forget it. We’ll know what’s going on once Jiang Ying deals with them.”

At this moment, Qian Qing rushed in and said seriously, “Princess Consort, the people from the palace are here. It’s said that the Empress Dowager has regained consciousness and wants to see you. They also said to bring the little prince.”

Luo Xiuran said, perplexed, “I understand why the Empress Dowager wants to see Yunxi as soon as she wakes up. After all, this matter is related to Yunxi, and Yunxi was also the one who saved her. However, why does she want to see Junjin as well?”

Qian Qing shook her head. “I tried to probe the palace servant who came, but the other party doesn’t know anything…’

Feng Yili said to Yu Yunxi, “I’ll go to the palace to see her. Clearly, her condition has improved. If there’s anything, the imperial doctors can handle it. Yunxi, you and Junjin don’t have to enter the palace.”

They had entered the palace earlier but encountered such a dangerous thing. Feng Yili was naturally unwilling to let them enter the palace again so soon.

Yu Yunxi turned to Qian Qing and asked, “When you spoke to the palace servant earlier, did you find out if the Emperor was aware that the Empress Dowager summoned me into the palace?”

Qian Qing was very meticulous in everything she did. Indeed, she had asked the palace servant about this. After thinking about it for a moment, she replied, “Princess Consort, I did. It seems like the Emperor is unaware of this. The palace servant left the palace with the Empress Dowager’s token and said that the Empress Dowager really hopes that you’ll see her.”

After listening to Qian Qing, Yu Yunxi said to Feng Yili, “Feng Yili, let me enter the palace.”

Immediately after that, the little bun raised his head and puffed out his chest as he said firmly, “Mother, I’ll come with you!”

‘I’ve grown up now. I have to protect Mother!’

Feng Yili sighed lightly when he heard his son and his wife’s words. Then, he said gently, “Then I’ll accompany both of you.”

The night sky was brightly lit by the moon.

The carriage sped toward the imperial palace, and they arrived very quickly.

The Empress Dowager was silent for a moment. After that, she said hoarsely, “Let them in.”

Soon after, Feng Yili, Yu Yunxi, and the little bun walked in.

The Empress Dowager coughed weakly a few times and gestured to the elderly maid next to her to help her up.

Upon seeing this, Yu Yunxi hurriedly stopped the palace maid and said,

“Empress Dowager, it’s not suitable for you to move around now.”

Then, Yu Yunxi asked the palace maid, “Have the imperial doctors come to check on the Empress Dowager?”

The palace maid looked at the Empress Dowager. After seeing the latter nod, she replied, “Princess Consort, the imperial doctors said that the Empress Dowager is fine. She just needs to recuperate.”

Yu Yunxi checked the Empress Dowager’s pulse and confirmed the matter. With this, the stone in her heart was lifted.

“Yunxi…” the Empress Dowager called out.

Before the Empress Dowager could speak again, Yu Yunxi fell to her knees. She said solemnly, “Empress Dowager, I apologize. Although it wasn’t my maidservant who injured you, Gao Shixuan is closely connected to the Prince Regent’s Residence, after all. It’s our fault for not being able to see through her and implicating you.”

Unexpectedly, the Empress Dowager laughed when she saw this. Then, she glanced at Feng Yili and shook her head before she said with a smile, “Yili, you’re really not as good as your Princess Consort at winning my heart..”
