Subsequently, a slender man with white hair slowly walked in. His eyes were devoid of emotions, just like an immortal.

Many unmarried noble ladies in the hall saw him, and their eyes lit up immediately. After all, the Imperial Preceptor was a handsome man as famous as the Prince Regent. The Prince Regent already had a consort so they wondered if they had any hope in regard to the Imperial Preceptor.

When Yu Yunxi looked at the other party, her gaze was very cold. Indeed, the other person was Qi Ye, the Imperial Preceptor. Back then, he was the one who almost killed her and Feng Yili. Just as she found it hard to control her emotions, she felt a warm hand holding her hand. She knew Feng Yili was silently comforting her.

Qi Ye placed a hand on his chest and bowed slightly to Feng Yijin. “Greetings, Your Majesty.”

Qi Ye did not kneel, but Feng Yijin was not angry. Instead, he smiled and said, “There’s no need for formalities. Imperial Preceptor, please take a seat.” Clearly, Qi Ye held an extremely high position in Feng Yijin’s heart.

Yu Yunxi picked up her teacup and drank from it as she carefully sized up the ministers around her. As soon as Qi Ye appeared, she noticed the respect in the ministers’ eyes. It was obvious that Qi Ye was very popular in Tianxia.

“Imperial Preceptor, I summoned you back to the capital so many times, but you only came back now. I wonder how long you’ll stay this time. You can’t leave so quickly,” Feng Yijin said with a sigh.

“Don’t worry, Your Majesty. I came back this time to share your burden. I won’t leave for the time being,” Qi Ye said with a nod.

“That’s good..

Feng Yijin and the ministers sighed in relief. It was as though as long as Qi Ye was present, Tianxia would have no worries.

Feng Yijin stroked his beard and said to everyone, “Today’s banquet is to celebrate the Imperial Preceptor’s return. My beloved ministers, don’t be reserved and just enjoy yourselves today.” Not long after, the performers came in.

As the song played, everyone gradually relaxed.

Yu Yunxi and Feng Yili lowered their heads tacitly and fed the little bun. They knew that the more peaceful it was now, the more terrifying the hidden danger would be.

After some time, Qi Ye suddenly said, “Your Majesty, I heard that you’ve already betrothed the Crown Prince and the daughter from the Chen family…”

“That’s right. There’s been no Crown Princess in the Eastern Palace for so many years; it’s a little inappropriate. Imperial Preceptor, you suddenly mentioned this matter. Is there something inappropriate about the marriage?” Feng Yijin asked Qi Ye with a frown.

The hearts of the Chen family members tensed up when they heard this. They were all prepared to be relatives of the Emperor, but if the Imperial Preceptor said the marriage was inappropriate, they knew the Emperor would likely withdraw the marriage.

The other ministers remained silent as they watched the show.

At this time, Qi Ye chuckled and slowly said, “Your Majesty, I’ve already divined this matter before I came. The Crown Prince and the daughter from the Chen family are indeed very compatible. If they get married, the imperial family and Tianxia will flourish.

The Chen family members finally heaved a sigh of relief when they heard this.

With a satisfied expression on his face, Feng Yijin said, “With the Imperial

Preceptor’s words, I can rest assured.”

On the contrary, when Feng Weizhou heard Qi Ye’s words, he frowned slightly. However, he did not say anything.

“Your Majesty, apart from the matter of the Crown Prince and the daughter from the Chen family, there’s also another matter,” Qi Ye said as he glanced at Feng Yili and Yu Yunxi.

In an instant, the expressions of Feng Yili, Yu Yunxi, Luo Xiuran, and the others changed.

‘Is the Imperial Preceptor going to attack them now?’

Feng Yijin’s eyes flashed. After a while, he said meaningfully, “What’s the matter? Tell me about it.’

“Your Majesty has encountered a lot of troubles recently, right?” Qi Ye asked casually.

“That’s right. Many things happened recently. Not only was I worried, but my beloved ministers were also worried. Not only was the Empress Dowager injured, but Consort Qin is also not feeling well. Also, not long ago, that bast*rd, Prince Rui…”

As soon as Feng Yijin mentioned Feng Weirui, the ministers hurriedly lowered their heads. They did not even dare to breathe loudly.

The atmosphere was extremely tense.

“I’ve heard a little about these things. Your Majesty, don’t worry. It’s nothing more than a demon causing trouble and trying to destroy the foundation of Tianxia.”

The ministers were extremely worried when they heard this. Then, they whispered among themselves in low voices.

“I knew it… I could sense that something wasn’t right recently. As it turns out, it’s the work of a demon!”

“Hey, I heard that it’s a demoness. This is the rumor among the commoners. I didn’t think the rumor was credible previously. However, since the Imperial Preceptor has said so, it must be true.”

“This is really scary. I wonder where the demoness is. Can we find her and kill her? Otherwise, Tianxia will be in danger…”

The ministers continued to mutter worriedly.

Feng Yijin asked in a grave tone, “Imperial Preceptor, could it be that the rumor about a demoness in Tianxia is true?”

At this moment, Luo Xiuran clenched his hands and leaned over to Feng Yili, whispering, “I finally understand the Emperor and the Imperial Preceptor’s intentions. Are they planning to deal with Yunxi?”

Yu Yunxi recalled what Feng Yili told her about the demoness. The supposed demoness’ birth dates coincided with hers.

“Yes, I’ve also heard of this rumor,” Qi Ye said before he looked at Feng Yili and

Yu Yunxi and asked nonchalantly, “I wonder if the Prince Regent and Princess Regent have heard the rumor?”

Without waiting for their reply, Qi Ye continued to say, “Back then, the matter between the Prince Regent and the Princess Regent was set up by me. Seeing that both of you are so close now, I’m really gratified.”

‘He actually dares to mention what happened back then…’

Feng Yili asked coldly, “Then, in the Imperial Preceptor’s opinion, is the rumor true?”

If Qi Ye dared to say that the demoness was Yu Yunxi, Feng Yili would not let him go.

Qi Ye chuckled and said, “Prince Regent, why are you so nervous? It’s true that there’s a demon, but it’s easy to deal with this demon because Tianxia has a lucky star as well…”

‘Lucky star?’

Feng Yili and the others were filled with doubts when they heard this.

‘What is Qi Ye trying to do now?’

Feng Yijin also did not expect this. He asked, puzzled, “Lucky star? Who’s the lucky star?”

Without giving anyone a chance to react, Qi Ye said, “Of course, it’s the Princess Regent.’

‘The lucky star is the Princess Regent?’

Everyone turned to look at Yu Yunxi in unison..
