Ji Weiyu looked at the handsome boy in the bronze mirror: "From the appearance point of view, I can barely match your highness."

Yan Qing raised his eyebrows: "You are confident."

"From the perspective of status, it is also considered a good match."

Yan Qing sneered.

"Except that my ability is not as good as your highness." Ji Weiyu said, and then said as if to make up for it, "That's because I didn't use it. If I used it, I could catch up with your highness."

Yan Qing looked at him leisurely, with a slight mockery in his eyes.

"Of course, your highness's courage and majesty are unparalleled in the world, and no one can surpass it." Ji Weiyu flattered him, "I still rely on your highness's protection in the future."

Yan Qing looked at the boy in front of him, with bright eyes, delicate and beautiful face, and a bit of childishness between his eyebrows, but he was forced to be involved in the dispute over imperial power.

Yan Qing leaned lazily on the couch: "My situation is similar to yours."

"How dare that old witch in Dayong bully you?" Ji Weiyu frowned, obviously understanding what she meant, "Your Highness, if you are willing, let Lu Ming lead his troops to the capital, drive the emperor's son down, and directly help Your Highness become the empress."

Yan Qing remained silent.

"Well, I am the son of the Chu Kingdom, and Your Highness is a star of destiny. We are destined to be a perfect match in our names." Ji Weiyu couldn't help but start to recommend herself, "Your Highness, would you consider it? The two of us will join forces to turn Chu and Dayong upside down?"

Yan Qing said indifferently: "Do you want me to leave Chu now and leave you to fend for yourself?"

Ji Weiyu shut up instantly.

"The Marquis of Loyalty you just mentioned is the male favorite who has a secret meeting with the Queen Mother?"

"Yes, the Marquis of Loyalty is one of the Queen Mother's minions, secretly controlling the financial power of the Ministry of Revenue of the State of Chu. He has been living a life of luxury in recent years thanks to the Queen Mother's favor." Ji Weiyu's expression was calm, but there was a hint of coldness in her voice, "From him, we can take back the control of the Ministry of Revenue more quickly."

The maid brought in hot tea, and Yan Qing held the teacup to his lips. The fragrance of the tea accompanied by a slight strangeness entered his nose.

Yan Qing's lips curved slightly, and he drank a sip of tea calmly, then raised his eyes to look at the maid holding the tray: "Did you make this tea?"

"Yes." The maid glanced at her and stood aside with her head down.

"Did it pass through other people's hands?"

The maid was slightly startled and quietly clenched her hands: "No."

"So, you also poisoned this tea?"

As soon as the voice fell, a cold light suddenly flashed in front of her eyes.

The maid had a sharp knife in her hand, and the tip of the knife with a cold light stabbed towards Yan Qing.

Yan Qing sat on the chair without seeing any movement, but saw the maid in front of him suddenly screamed, "Ah!" and then fell to the ground without warning.

The body was twisted and there was no breath.

Ji Weiyu walked over, bent down and took the knife from the maid, "Not only did they poison me, they also wanted to assassinate me to silence me. It seems that the mastermind behind the scenes doesn't want me to have the slightest chance of survival."

Yan Qing leaned leisurely on the brocade couch: "Your palace is really full of snakes, rats, wolves and jackals."

"Didn't I tell Your Highness?" Ji Weiyu looked helpless, "The Fengwang Mansion has never had much freedom and is under constant surveillance. This time when I came back, there were countless spies planted here. Otherwise, why would I lie there unconscious every day? "

Yan Qing drank a sip of tea: "First, clear out the spies in the palace."

Ji Weiyu nodded: "Yes."

Yan Qing turned his head and looked at a corner: "Clean up the Fengwang Mansion tonight and find anything that is disturbing."

"Yes."

Ji Weiyu was shocked: "Your Highness also brought a shadow here?"

He has not noticed that there is still a shadow in this palace until now. He looked down at the maid lying on the ground. He thought that the maid was killed by His Highness.

No wonder His Highness sat there as if nothing had happened.

"I should go to report the news tonight." Yan Qing ignored his fuss and said, "It may not be cleared out in one night. First, clear out a few uneasy ones. Those who are lurking for a long time will slowly show their feet. "

Don't be in a hurry. Take everything step by step.

"In addition." Yan Qing looked at Ji Weiyu, his eyes concealing a sense of pressure, "I'll give you two choices, either change your name and call you Doctor Yan from now on, or ask everyone outside the palace to retreat three feet away to ensure that no one can hear our conversation, even if it is just a few unintentional words."

Ji Weiyu chose the latter without hesitation: "Let them all retreat."

"You mean, let me serve you every day?"

"I don't need to serve." Ji Weiyu shook his head quickly, "Even if I have to serve, I will serve Your Highness."

Yan Qing's expression was strange: "In your huge palace, can't you find a few trustworthy people?"

"Not really." Ji Weiyu scratched his head. He scratched his nose, "Aren't you afraid of disturbing His Highness's peace?"

"Let them clean up the warm room next door."

Ji Weiyu came back to his senses and said quickly: "I'll live in the warm room, and leave the main hall to Your Highness."

Yan Qing raised an eyebrow: "So considerate?"

"This is not considerate, it's justified." Ji Weiyu blushed, "Your Highness came all the way for me, I'm so touched, and I'm thinking about how to repay Your Highness."

After that, Ji Weiyu ordered two maids to come in and replace all the mattresses and pillows on the bed: "Replace with new ones, clean the inner hall, fumigate the bedding and pillows, and do it carefully. Whoever dares to be careless will be skinned by me."
