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

Chapter 450: Assassinated
Ye Xuwan's words firstly indicated that the prince was too busy, and secondly, she attributed the prince's busyness to handling state affairs.

The prince is not as idle as them. He is worried about other people's palace affairs every day.

"The fire in the East Palace has to be repaired soon. We can take this opportunity to take a concubine, which can also be considered as a blessing for the Crown Prince." Concubine Lin frowned. She naturally ignored Ye Xuwan's words.

At times like this, she would simply ignore these words.

It seemed that the two of them were going to make things difficult for her today. When Ye Xuwan was thinking about how to get out, a woman came up.

"See you, aunt."

The woman was elegant and had her hair tied into small braids and draped over her shoulders, making her look playful and cute.

Aunt? Could this be Concubine Lin's niece?
Ye Xuwan suddenly had a bad premonition. If she remembered correctly, this girl was in the scroll. It seemed that Concubine Lin was planning to extend her hand into Mo Yunzheng's harem.

She wanted to control herself, but she couldn't use herself, so she thought of putting new people around the prince.

And this new person must be someone she can trust and who listens to her.

"This is the daughter of Lord Jun of Longxi, and also my niece."

Duke Jun of Longxi? This can even be related to Concubine Lin. It seems that she has a long way to go.

Ye Xuwan frowned. When did this Duke Jun of Longxi get involved with Concubine Lin about Guan Xu? This niece must have been just adopted by him.

"Mother is so lucky to have such a beautiful niece." Mei Xue spoke immediately. She had been watching the show, but at the critical moment she chose to stand up and speak.

Ye Xuwan calmly picked up the teacup in front of her, put it to her lips and took a sip, then her eyes dropped.

She should not rush to join in the fun at this time. Her intuition told her that this niece was aiming for the position of concubine in the Eastern Palace.

"My niece has reached the marriageable age, but she doesn't like any of the sons of princes and ministers."

Concubine Lin spoke with a smile, her tone revealing helplessness.

"Even if the princes and ministers don't like it, the prince will definitely like it." Ye Qingwan said jokingly. This prince is naturally not the eldest prince. Now all the civil and military officials in the court want to find a concubine for the prince, so she is determined to join in the fun.

Several people were talking excitedly, with Ye Xuwan sitting aside without saying a word, but smiling and agreeing from time to time.

At times like this, it would be better for her to reduce her presence so as to avoid bringing trouble upon herself.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is still in need of a good man. In my opinion, this girl's temperament and character will definitely be compatible with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

After Concubine Lin said this, everyone's eyes fell on Ye Xuwan. She was the Crown Princess, and whether this matter could be accomplished depended on her words.

If she gave in, the wedding in the East Palace would be approaching.

"I think this girl is pure and elegant. The only position for a concubine in the Eastern Palace now is mine. I wonder if this girl is willing to take the position?"

A concubine is still inferior to the principal wife, and she is always outshined by others in everything.

"Rong'er is naturally willing."

As soon as these words were spoken, Concubine Lin laughed out loud, and the marriage was considered a done deal.

Ye Xuwan smiled faintly. Today, Concubine Lin called her here just to get someone into the East Palace. If she didn't follow her wishes, Concubine Lin would inevitably make things difficult for her in the future.

Soon the imperial decree granting the marriage came down, but by the time Mo Yunzheng learned about it, it was already too late.

The imperial edict has been issued and the matter is a foregone conclusion. There is no other way to change it.

"What are you doing?" Mo Yunzheng frowned as he looked at the decoration in front of him. He was unwilling to marry this concubine from the bottom of his heart. But Wan'er agreed to this marriage early.

"The concubine is about to enter the East Palace, and the Crown Princess wants the servants to dress her up." After all, she is the daughter of a fifth-rank official and the niece of Concubine Lin, so she should be given enough face.

Mo Yunzheng snorted in annoyance, turned around and walked into the house. As soon as he sat down, he saw Ye Xuwan rummaging through the jewelry box.

"Wan'er, what is she doing now?" he asked puzzledly.

Ye Xuwan smiled and said, "Prepare a gift for the concubine." This gift has a meaning. If she prepares something light, the other party will inevitably feel neglected. If she prepares something heavy, the other party will easily lose sight of her own status.

"Wan'er, I don't want to marry this concubine." Mo Yunzheng's tone was a little low. He didn't want to marry this concubine.

"You are the prince. This is not something you and I can decide." Ye Xuwan spoke slowly. This was His Majesty's decree, and no one could bear the charge of disobeying the order.

What's more, he is the crown prince and should focus more on state affairs.

The East Palace was decorated with red silk inside and outside. The one being married was a concubine, so the scale was not too big, it was just to give the other party some respect.

“Rong’er, you must do your best to accompany the Crown Prince in the Eastern Palace in the future.” Concubine Lin looked at the crown in front of her and spoke. Although it was not gorgeous, it was also very decent.

For a concubine to wear a tassel crown is already beyond many people.

Concubine Lin looked at the wedding dress in front of her with a smile on her face. The dress was very beautiful. She had not seen such festive colors for a long time.

"Rong'er has to thank the Imperial Concubine for this marriage."

The woman smiled and said that being able to marry into the Eastern Palace was a blessing in her life.

Late at night, the woman in the bath came out along the ladder and looked at the crown and hairpin placed in front of her with a greedy smile.

As long as she entered the Eastern Palace, what would the Crown Princess mean to her?

A concubine's daughter dares to compete with me.

There was a noise outside the door, and the person inside immediately asked, "Who?"

A flying knife stabbed into the woman's chest. Before she could react, she fell heavily into the pool behind her.

With a bang, water splashed everywhere and blood instantly dyed the pool red.

The concubine is the niece of Concubine Lin, so naturally she has to be moved from Concubine Lin's palace to the Eastern Palace. The matchmaker came early in the morning, and some rules have to be explained in advance.

"Where is the girl?" The matchmaker looked puzzled. It was already so late, the girl couldn't have not gotten up yet.

Upon hearing this, the palace maid immediately pushed the door open and was shocked by what she saw as soon as she stepped forward.

"what!"

A scream broke the quiet morning, and the bad news immediately spread throughout the palace.

The concubine who was supposed to enter the East Palace today was killed, and rumors immediately spread in the palace.

"Your Highness, I heard that the girl is dead." Hua Ying ran in hurriedly from outside. She also went out to inquire about the news and only got a general idea.

He was assassinated in the middle of the night. I heard that the water in the bathing pool was dyed red. When the palace maid found him, he was already dead.

Ye Xuwan frowned. This matter was indeed not as simple as it seemed. It seemed that there was an assassin hiding in the palace.

"Your Majesty has ordered a search of the entire palace. The assassin must not be let off."
