Chapter 686 The substitute won’t last long
Before, she suppressed her anger and did not target Yun Yurou, fearing that Gu Mohan would tangle with her after knowing the truth.

But now that she is "dead", what's the point of suppressing...

Nan Wanyan left with the child, while Yun Yurou was helped up by Biyun, and her beautiful face became extremely distorted at this moment.

The clenched palms reminded her of the humiliation she had just suffered all the time.

Biyun even cursed, "Bah! She's just a bitch, and she's so rude to you just because of her temporary favor!"

"In my opinion, this Bai Zhi should be eradicated as soon as possible to prevent her from continuing to dominate!"

Yun Yurou didn't have murderous intentions. Her eyes were scarlet and bloodthirsty, but she still maintained her rationality. "She can't stay, but not now, and I can't do it myself."

Biyun frowned and was confused, "I don't understand, why does the empress say this?"

Yun Yurou gave Biyun a look of disdain, "It's a shame I said you had made progress before, but you still don't like to use your brain."

"Now that she is the emperor's new favorite, the Queen Mother will naturally keep an eye on her. The conflict between Bai Zhi and me just now may have been noticed by others."

"If Bai Zhi dies soon, it will be clear who is the most suspicious. When the time comes, the emperor will only hold a grudge against me. How can I be favored?"

Biyun seemed to be enlightened, "I see, this slave has a dull head and is not as thoughtful as the empress."

"But, can we just sit back and wait for death and watch that Angelica domineering in front of us?"

Yun Yurou sneered and said, "The emperor just regards Bai Zhi as the queen's substitute. How can a puppet who is a substitute last long?"

"When the emperor gets tired of playing with it, he will naturally discard the white peony as a worn-out shoe. When the time comes, I won't even need to do it myself."

Although that Angelica dahurica does look somewhat similar to Nan Wanyan, it definitely cannot be Nan Wanyan.

The explosion at the ceremony was so violent that Nan Wanyan didn't have a bronze head or an iron arm, so how could he still survive?
Biyun nodded hurriedly and agreed flatteringly, "Your Majesty is right. Alas, I just don't understand. This Bai Zhi is the wife of the young general. How could the emperor want to bring her into the palace to pamper her?"

Biyun said this, which reminded Yun Yurou. She squinted her eyes, and there was a hint of viciousness in her eyes.

"The emperor is now openly trying to steal his minister's fiancée. It's still unclear whether those old-fashioned ministers will agree. The harem... huh, she won't be here for long."

Let's see, she has had a bumpy journey, and she has made it this far. I don't believe she can't compare to a substitute, and she can't get into Gu Mohan's heart...

On the other side, Nan Wanyan and Xiao Zhanjiao and their group arrived at Wuku Hall, but came to nothing.

In front of the palace gate, a little palace maid explained with a troubled expression.

"Princess Anping's arrival is really unlucky. Early this morning, the concubine and the queen mother left the palace together to worship the Buddha. I'm afraid I will have to stay one night before returning to the palace."

After all, Nan Wanyan was an "outsider" now. It was not easy for her to respond to such matters in person, so she could only wink at the steamed dumplings.

The little steamed dumpling understood it immediately, with a sweet smile on his soft little face, "Thank you, Miss, then I will come back to Grandma Huang later!"

Nan Wanyan nodded to the palace maid, turned around and followed the steamed dumplings to return the way they came.

Yu Feng and Feng Yang followed behind. Yu Feng looked up from time to time to look at Nan Wanyan. Although he didn't know why Princess Anping came to see Yi Fei, he still silently remembered it in his heart.

The little steamed dumplings were chattering beside Nan Wanyan, chatting and laughing excitedly.

But at this moment, a familiar voice suddenly sounded from behind everyone——

"Miss Bai Zhi, please stay." Nan Wanyan paused, turned around, and met Nanny Li's smiling eyes.

She was surprised in her heart, but she still suppressed her thoughts and asked, pretending to be confused, "I wonder who you are?"

Xiao Steamed Dumpling and others also turned around at the same time and saw Grandma Li. Yu Feng and Xiao Steamed Dumpling were obviously stunned for a moment, but Feng Yang still looked calm.

Nanny Li looked Nan Wanyan up and down, and as she got closer, she realized that although this woman was not good-looking and had average looks, her behavior and temperament were quite remarkable and not annoying.

She bowed to Nan Wanyan in a calm tone, "This old slave is Nanny Li who is with the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother has invited me, and I hope that the girl will come with me."

The royal grandmother is looking for her?

Nanwan Yandai frowned slightly, "I wonder why the Empress Dowager is looking for a common girl?"

Little Steamed Dumpling was also a little nervous, and nodded in agreement, "Yes, Nanny Li, is there something wrong with Grandma Taihuang?"

"I haven't seen her for a few days, why don't I go with you?"

Aunt Li lovingly said to the little steamed dumpling, "The Empress Dowager has something to do with Miss Bai Zhi. If Princess Anping misses the Empress Dowager, she might as well go later."

Then, she looked at Yu Feng and said, "Guard Yu Feng, please send the eldest princess back to Yu Xin Palace."

Although Yu Feng was also curious about the purpose of the Empress Dowager summoning Bai Zhi, but now that Nanny Li had spoken, he could not refuse. He could only look at the little steamed dumplings and said, "Princess Anping, please go back with your subordinates."

Little Steamed Dumpling puffed up her cheeks and glanced at Nan Wanyan worriedly. When Nan Wanyan blinked at her to indicate not to worry, she had no choice but to lower her head gloomily, "Okay."

Then, she raised her head and said in a sweet voice, "Sister Bai Zhi, don't forget to come and play with me later!"

Nan Wanyan felt like her heart was about to melt, and she smiled lightly, "Okay."

The little steamed dumpling turned back three times, but was still led away by Yu Feng. Then Nanny Li made a "please" gesture to Nan Wanyan and Feng Yang, "Miss Bai Zhi, go this way."

Nan Wanyan nodded, "Excuse me, mama."

Two months have passed, and I don’t know how the emperor’s grandmother is doing.

Along the way, Nanny Li tentatively asked Nan Wanyan some questions, which were similar to what Gu Mohan asked her that day.

Nan Wanyan answered questions fluently and was courteous in her words and deeds, which made Nanny Li think highly of her.

Finally, the three of them arrived in front of the Luanfeng Palace.

Nanny Li smiled slightly at Nan Wanyan and said, "Girl, please."

Nan Wanyan was not formal and took Feng Yang into the main hall in an open manner.

In the Luanfeng Palace, the Empress Dowager was leaning on the imperial concubine's couch and taking a nap with her eyes closed. When she heard the movement at the door of the hall, she raised her eyes symbolically and glanced at the person coming.

Bai Zhi, who was walking in front, looked ordinary. Although her appearance was very ordinary, her clothes were plain and fresh, and she looked like a neat person.

Nan Wanyan saluted the Empress Dowager respectfully, "Daughter Bai Zhi, please give my regards to the Empress Dowager."

She took a careful look at the Empress Dowager, and then realized that the old man had a lot of white hair on his temples, and his energy was not as strong as before, but instead... a little haggard.
