She went to the East Palace to be a eunuch, and the prince became her subordinate.

Chapter 331 Blackmail
In order to avoid suspicion among those present, Ye Xuwan had no choice but to say that no one would have trouble with Yin Zi.
"Girl, are you here for this reward?" A voice came from behind. She turned around and saw a group of tall and powerful people sitting together.
Judging from their attire, they seemed to be from the Western Regions, and it seemed that they were also here for the reward.
Mo Qingsong spent a lot of money, and the reward amount was tens of thousands of taels of silver. This money was enough for an ordinary person to live a prosperous life.
"Yeah, but I'm just joining in the fun. I don't even know where this place is." Ye Xuwan said with a smile.
The other party saw that she was a girl, and she thought it wouldn't be a big deal, so she simply told him all the rumors among the people.
Folk rumors say that His Highness the Prince was assassinated here, and his body sank into the river. If you want to find him, you can only start here.
Ye Xuwan quickly stood up and thanked the other party, and she knew what was going on.
Seeing the time passing by, she also took the time to search upstream of the river.
She firmly believed that Mo Yunzheng would not die. If he was alive, he would definitely want to return to the palace. He could only be found by going upstream of the river.
Sure enough, she saw government officials and soldiers patrolling upstream, and immediately hid aside and watched carefully.
"Have you seen this person?" The officers and soldiers were holding Mo Yunzheng's portrait and were looking for him one by one.
It seemed that they were under Mo Qingsong's instructions. He didn't believe that people really died like this before he saw the body.
Ye Xuwan walked a long way along the side and upstream. She really had nowhere to go and had to find a farmhouse to stay.
"Thank you, ma'am." She thanked them quickly and took off the hairpin as a way of thanking them for taking them in.
As soon as she entered the house, she smelled a strong smell of medicine. Ye Xuwan was particularly sensitive to these smells. From what she saw, the aunt and uncle of this family seemed to be in good health and did not seem to need to drink herbal medicine at all.
"Auntie, is someone at home sick?" She asked with some confusion, directly telling her that this family is not simple, maybe they can know the whereabouts of Mo Yunzheng.
This place is located just upstream of the river. If he lives, he will definitely need to find a place to stay, and this place has the right time, place and people.
"No, I'm going to drink some medicine to recuperate my health." The aunt smiled and immediately turned around and walked out, leaving her alone in the house drinking tea.
Ye Xuwan took the opportunity to look around the house. How could ordinary farmers spend their money on such a place? They must be lying to themselves.
After saying that, she got up, walked to the yard, and walked around.
"Auntie, are there any officers and soldiers looking for people here with portraits today?" Ye Xuwan said casually, but she also caught the discomfort on the aunt's face.
Could it be that Mo Yunzheng was injured and was rescued by them? The thought exploded in her mind.
If he is alive, he will definitely come to find him. If he is hiding here, he will definitely show up.
Ye Xuwan immediately took off the bracelet from her wrist and stuffed it into Auntie's hand, "Auntie, can I stay here for one night?"
Seeing that the thing she gave her looked really good, the other party agreed, and also specially cleaned up a room for her to rest.
The palace was in chaos due to the assassination of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and Mo Qingsong was also dealing with government affairs under pressure.
His identity is not correct, and many ministers are already dissatisfied with him. In the emperor's palace, Du Juan had just finished feeding the medicine in the bowl and hurriedly walked out with the bowl in his hand.
"Your Highness." She immediately knelt on the ground when she saw the person coming, and the bowl in her hand broke to the ground without being able to hold it firmly.
Concubine Lin couldn't help but frowned when she saw her recklessness, "I asked you to come here to serve you because I saw that you acted steadily. If you make His Majesty unhappy, I wonder who can save your life."
After saying that, Du Juan lowered her head even further. The situation in the palace was changing. She also knew that the matter was almost finished, and her use value would be gone.
"What the imperial concubine taught me is that it was the slave's fault." Du Juan knelt on the ground in a panic to clean up the pieces, packed up the pieces and walked out.
Under a locust tree, she dug a hole and buried the things in it.
Concubine Lin raised her lips as she looked at the half-opened person on the bed, and then saluted perfunctorily.
"Your Majesty, I haven't seen you for a few days. I wonder if your Majesty is in better health?" Concubine Lin sat on the edge of the bed and stretched out her hand to caress his chest, with an extremely proud smile on her face.
Seeing that he didn't speak, Concubine Lin looked down at the long armor on her hands, and her voice sounded a bit sad: "I don't know, Your Majesty, Yunzheng was assassinated outside and is now dead. I am very sad in my heart."
The person who was originally dumbfounded when he heard the word Yunzheng immediately reacted, with a look in his eyes.
Concubine Lin picked up a handkerchief and wiped her face, pretending to be sad and crying.
"Your Majesty, Qingsong has been busy with political affairs these days and has not been able to pay your respects to His Majesty. Now that Yun Zheng is dead, the country cannot live without a king for a day. Your Majesty should also consider giving Qingsong to us as the crown prince."
Concubine Lin's words were very sincere and moving. Now in the entire palace, only her son has this qualification. Now let's see who will compete with her.
The person on the bed closed his eyes and seemed to refuse to communicate with her.
Concubine Lin had already guessed this reaction before she came, but she still had to say it.
It would be best if the Holy One could voluntarily change the imperial edict of establishing the Crown Prince, and she would not have to bear the infamy. But if the Holy One is unwilling, then don't blame her for doing it herself.
Now that the jade seal is in the imperial study, it would be easy for her to draft an imperial edict.
"My concubine, please retire. Your Majesty, please take good care of your health." Concubine Lin stood up, took one look at her, and turned around to leave, without even making a perfunctory salute.
She wanted to see how long his exhausted body could last.
"Call Du Juan to me." Concubine Lin sat on the stool. Du Juan came in from outside and knelt in front of her.
Perhaps she was afraid of the person in front of her, so she didn't even dare to raise her head.
"If I remember correctly, you have a younger brother and younger sister at home." Concubine Lin spoke slowly, without any emotion when she said this.
Dujuan trembled and immediately kowtowed to her, "I would like to ask you to show your respect. My brothers and sisters are still young. Please let me go."
The person in front of her is a noble concubine. She can find out everything, including the number of people in her family.
In the beginning, she used her younger siblings to threaten her to help her do such a desperate thing. Now that things are about to come to fruition, she wants to use this as a threat.
"How can I be such a cruel person? You can find a day to leave the palace and go home. This can be regarded as a gift from me." Concubine Lin raised her eyes and glanced at her, as if looking at a useless object.
