After Zhu Chengxuan left the imperial study room, he did not go back to his Chengqian Palace directly, but instead concealed it and arrived at Yikun Palace.

But the imperial concubine was not there.

He was a little surprised, but in order to see Nanyan and talk to her about something, he was still waiting here. Fortunately, within a while, Nanyan came back from outside.

However, her face was a little paler than when she was in the imperial study room before.

Seeing her like this, Zhu Chengxuan was also startled and hurried forward: "Imperial Concubine, what's wrong with you?"

Aunt Tongyun and the others hurriedly stepped forward to support her. Nian Qiu looked behind her and said in surprise: "Empress, didn't you take Sister Xiaoyu with you when you got up early? Why didn't she accompany the Empress?"

When Xiaoyu was mentioned, Nan Yan's face became even more ugly.

Zhu Chengxuan said to them: "Xiaoyu was sent to prison by her father. Don't ask about this matter for the time being."

When she heard this, Aunt Tongyun and Nian Qiu were both shocked.

"how so?!"

"Sister Xiaoyu"

Nan Yan waved his hand pale and said, "I know what to do about this matter. You, you go down first, I will stay alone with Your Highness for a while."

"……yes."

They could only retreat with concern.

When they all left, Zhu Chengxuan turned around and looked at Nan Yan's pale face and said softly: "The Concubine's face is pale, as if she is sick."

“…”

Nan Yan knew that although he was young, he had excellent medical skills and was not in good health, so he was afraid that he could see through it at a glance.

But now is not the time to worry about this.

She said lightly: "It's okay to have a small matter."

After saying that, he said to Zhu Chengxuan again: "Thank you, Your Highness, just now."

"I think that there is no need to say that word between me and the Imperial Concubine."

“…”

Looking at Zhu Chengxuan's serious eyes, Nan Yan smiled bitterly.

Of course she knew that Zhu Chengxuan was referring to how he helped him the last time he was trapped in the prison.

Things in the world are sometimes full of magic.

Zhu Chengxuan asked again: "By the way, where did the imperial concubine go just now? It was still raining outside."

Nanyan arrived: "I went to Chonghua Palace for a trip."

"Chonghua Palace?"

Zhu Chengxuan looked at him in surprise, feeling a little unbelievable: "The Imperial Concubine is going."

"I'm going to ask Concubine Kang for help?"

"she?!"

Zhu Chengxuan was even more strange. You should know that it is clear inside and outside the palace that the imperial concubine and Concubine Kang are incompatible with water and fire. How could the imperial concubine think of asking Concubine Kang for help?

Looking at his surprised expression, Nan Yan smiled bitterly again.

In fact, when I walked into Chonghua Palace by myself, the people inside also had this expression.

Even when she asked Concubine Kang, she looked at herself with a look of a madman.

She also acted as crazy about what she said.

Nan Yan could only say: "Concubine Kang, don't forget, who stopped this matter when Emperor Yangxingzhai was going to punish you."

Generally speaking, no one can repay kindness.

If you have to express kindness to others clearly and make people repay you, you will inevitably fall into inferiority. But for Ran Xiaoyu, not to say that falling into inferiority, you will accept it even if you are embarrassed.

When she heard her words, Concubine Kang's face looked even more ugly.

Of course she did not forget that when Feng Shu was provoking Zhu Feng and asked Zhu Feng to punish her, it was Si Nanyan who took out the imperial concubine's money and lost her temper in front of Feng Shu, which made Zhu Feng forget about punishing herself.

In this way, she did help herself.

Wu Wan hesitated for a long time before saying coldly: "This time, I'm not helping you, I just don't want that bitch to be too proud."

Nan Yan said, "Then, I won't thank you anymore."

After saying that, he left Chonghua Palace.

Zhu Chengxuan asked her: "What did the imperial concubine ask her to help?"

Nan Yan said: "Xiaoyu was sent to prison by the emperor. I want to save her, but I am afraid it will be difficult to rescue her for a while. I can only find a way to stabilize the people in the prison. Concubine Kang has her methods in these aspects."

"oh……"

Zhu Chengxuan nodded clearly.

Indeed, Is it not the work of Concubine Kang who suffered such a big blow before?

He was just a little surprised

"I didn't expect that the Imperial Concubine would go to find her."

Nan Yan sighed and said, "If it were normal, I would definitely not go to find her."

“…”

"But, for Xiaoyu"

“…”

"I only know now that in this harem, there are no eternal friends or enemies, only temporary alliances of interests. As long as Xiaoyu can be saved, I can do anything."

Zhu Chengxuan looked at her, and after a while, he whispered: "The Imperial Concubine said that there are no eternal friends, but the Empress can give this to Sister Xiaoyu. Isn't this the best counterexample?"

“…”

After hearing his words, Nan Yan smiled bitterly again.

Looking at Zhu Chengxuan again, a hint of relief appeared on his tired and tired face.

This child is much more mature than before.

Perhaps, the incident before made him grow up a lot.

At this time, Zhu Chengxuan said to her very seriously: "By the way, Imperial Concubine, I actually have something important to tell you this time."

"Oh? What's the matter?"

"Is the father's attitude towards the Empress recently different from the past?"

“…”

Nanyan glanced at him.

This seems to be unnecessary.

The entire harem felt it.

But if a man doesn't love him, maybe that's it.

Once upon a time, he had a lot of eyes for Ran Xiaoyu because of his own reasons, but now he can still mercilessly throw Ran Xiaoyu into the Heavenly Prison.

Nanyan said bitterly: "This... your highness will not worry about it."

Zhu Chengxuan looked at her and said seriously: "I cannot ignore this matter."

“…”

Listening to his seriousness and even a heavy tone, Nan Yan was stunned and looked up at him: "What do you mean?"

Zhu Chengxuan said: "I found that there was a strange smell on my father's body, or on the body of Concubine Li."

“What does it taste?”

"I can't say it yet, but based on my feelings about the medicine, it seems to be a scent that makes people feel distracted."

"What?!"

Nan Yan opened his eyes wide in shock and looked at him: "Your Highness, are you not mistaken?"

"No."

Zhu Chengxuan said with certainty: "When I arrived at Yangxingzhai yesterday, I smelled that strange smell. Although it was very light and it may be difficult for ordinary people to notice, I still noticed it."

“…”

Nanyan was shocked.

A scent that makes people feel distracted?
