Seeing that the day of the talent show was right before his eyes, the Crown Prince began to arrange for the dancers to be sent to the palace.

It was a cloudless day, and the weather was good. Within the imperial garden, there were rows and rows of elegant ladies standing in order to be chosen. The emperor was sitting high above the Dragon Cage, with countless palace maids, eunuchs, and guards following behind him. Those select maidens all had faces like peach blossoms, and faces full of shyness. They all thought that if the emperor took a fancy to them, then they would be able to achieve great heights in the future.

As the emperor slowly walked amongst the many maids, he thought to himself that since he was faced with this group of heavily made-up women every year, he was becoming less and less fond of them. However, it was not too obvious that he was interested in them since they were chosen by the ancestors and were meant for the imperial family. Suddenly, from the crowd of heavily made-up women, he saw a person wearing simple yet elegant makeup instead of the other girls. He couldn't help but look at her a few more times, and the more he looked, the more he felt as if he had seen this person somewhere before.

"You, raise your head and let me have a look." The Emperor walked up to Linglong and pointed at her.

Linglong was shocked, thinking to herself, there is actually such a cold person in this world, even his voice is calm. Linglong slowly raised her head and met the gaze of the Emperor.

"It's you."

"Yes, servant."

"What's your name?"

"Servant Linglong."

"Linglong." The Emperor muttered to himself, "Since you have entered the palace, you cannot use the name you used when you were a dancer. "Change your name. From today onwards, your name shall be Yu'er."

"Yes, servant Yu'er, thank you for giving me this name."

The Emperor did not say anything else but left. One by one, the maidens were brought back to the palace.

After returning to the palace, Linglong thought back to the day when the Emperor was participating in the Emperor's talent competition. After thinking about it, she was unable to understand his actions; it was as if he had noticed her, but he only said a few words to her, as if nothing had happened.

But no matter what, Feng Jiaojiao was right, the emperor had still noticed him. The more she thought about it, the more confused she felt, so she decided not to think about it anymore.

For several days, the Emperor did not summon any female servants from the Palace. On the evening of the fifth day, two eunuchs and several maids arrived.

"The emperor has decreed that Miss Xuanlong will accompany you in your sleep."

The eunuch spoke with a shrill voice, "Which one is Miss Linglong? "Come with me." Thus, Linglong was brought away by a group of maids. After she finished bathing and changing her clothes, she was sent to the emperor's quarters …

Linglong, as a dancer, knew how to read words and see the looks of others. In addition, she was cautious, and purposely fawned over the Yan Fei. She was very likeable, and very quickly received the Emperor's special favor, being bestowed the position of Yu Liangren.

In the crown prince's mansion, Feng Jiaojiao was sticking close to the crown prince, "Your Highness, it has been quite some time since your concubine has thought of entering the Yu Liangren Palace. How can there still be no movements today? Could it be that she has forgotten what His Highness told her to do? "

"She dares. This prince can let her enter the palace and ascend the branches to become a phoenix. Naturally, I can also beat her back to her original form to become a crow." Hearing Feng Jiaojiao talk about the Yu Liangren, the crown prince seemed to have thought of something, "That's right, she should do something for me."

"Chenqie has a plan, I don't know if it's appropriate to say it."

"Speak."

"Your Highness, since the Battle King has been feigning sickness for so many days, even the Emperor cannot see that he is feigning illness." Your Highness, since the Battle King has been feigning illness for so many days, even the Emperor cannot see that the Emperor is feigning illness.

"What do you mean?"

Feng Jiaojiao bent her head down and whispered to the crown prince about her plans, making him extremely happy, "Alright, this is a good idea. I'll go to my mother's place tomorrow. " The Crown Prince thought, "This time, not only do I have to get rid of the Battle-King, I also have to get rid of the Ning Fei for my mother."

The next morning, the crown prince brought Feng Jiaojiao to the Imperial Palace to say that he was going to visit the matriarch.

"Greetings to mother."

"Get up, Tian Er. Are you all feeling better?" Seeing that his son had arrived, Yan Fei was extremely happy and hurriedly asked about his daughter.

"This child's health is fine. It's just that I've been too sick to get out of bed and have been unable to come and pay respects to my mother. This child feels really sorry for it, so I brought Jiao Jiao to pay my respects to my mother."

"Good, good, good." Hearing the crown prince's words, the Yan Fei was very happy, "As long as the crown prince has such intentions, then it's good. Coincidentally, two days ago, the Kingdom of Zi Yue had contributed two precious rose stalks that looked really good.

"Yes." The Crown Prince and Feng Jiaojiao replied.

The group of people accompanied Yan Fei to the imperial garden to admire the flowers, and along the way, the crown prince kept accompanying Yan Fei and indicated to Feng Jiaojiao with her eyes. When Feng Jiaojiao saw the crown prince signal to him, she pretended to be unwell and left. Actually, she went to look for Yu Liangren. She told Yu Liangren the crown prince's plan, telling him to think of a way to take down Ning Fei …

"Yu Liangren, the Emperor is currently reviewing the memorial. No one is allowed to disturb him." While the Emperor was reading the imperial study, he suddenly heard an eunuch's voice outside the door and knew that it was Yu Liangren.

"Let her in."

"Yes." The eunuch agreed, "Yu Liangren, after you."

"Your majesty, chenqie saw that you've been busy these past few days reading the imperial reports and expended too much energy and effort. chenqie was worried about your body and specially cooked this medicine to nourish your energy for you."

"Put it there first." The emperor raised his head and glanced at her. "Come, come over here and massage Zhen's shoulders. Zhen is a bit tired."

"Yes." Right now, Yu Liangren was giving the Emperor a massage from behind. He was secretly scheming on how to frame Ning Fei in front of the Emperor …

On the other side, Battle King Manor's King Fanged Illness had also come to an end. These two days, the Battle-King wanted to bring Feng Yu out for a stroll with Dou Dou. After briefing Lei Yushandian and the others, he told them to go and get ready. The Battle King planned to personally inform the girls. When he thought about Dou Dou's happy look after hearing that he had gone out to play, the Battle King unnaturally smiled. Just as he entered the courtyard, the Battle-King saw Dou Dou running towards him happily.

"Uncle Zhan." The Battle King opened up his arms and pulled Dou Dou into his embrace.

Feng Yu, who was standing nearby, couldn't help but frown when she saw this scene. Recently, Dou Dou had been a bit too attached to Xuanyuan Zhan, and Dou Dou rarely got so close to others. She was afraid that Dou Dou would be too reliant on Xuanyuan Zhan and would be too reluctant to leave in the future.

Seeing Feng Yu standing there absentmindedly, Xuanyuan Zhan walked over while carrying Dou Dou, "Yu Er, the two Japanese Kings are just idling around, there's nothing much going on, so this duke wants to take you out for a stroll with Dou Dou."

"Alright." Initially, he had wanted to decline, but when he thought that this would be a good opportunity to take Dou Dou away from the Battle King Manor, he agreed.

"Oh ~ I'm so happy, I can go out and play now." Dou Dou was extremely happy, he did not know what his mother was thinking at all.

Dou Dou was so excited that he couldn't sleep at all. After a while, the Battle King came over. He couldn't help but smile when he saw the two already washed up.

"Let's go, the thunderstorm. Lightning is ready."

"Alright."

The group of people disguised themselves as a family of three merchants, Lei Yu and Lightning were attendants.

As soon as the Battle King and his men left, the spy planted in the Battle King Manor reported the matter to the Crown Prince. The Crown Prince thought that this time, the Battle King only brought Lei Yushandian out with him and did not bring anyone else. Even if the Battle King's martial arts were high, two fists wouldn't be enough to fight four hands. Even if he couldn't kill the Battle King, he could still eliminate the troublesome Feng Yu and that little brat by his side. Thus, the Crown Prince secretly sent people to assassinate him.

Nangong Chen had been staying in the Flying Hung Pavilion, wanting to see the Battle King and his legendary Battle Princess. However, because the capital was not peaceful recently, he was afraid that there would be people who knew that he had purposely made a big fuss out of this matter, so he stayed in the Hongfei Pavilion.

On this day, Shangguan Yi walked over enthusiastically, "Fuck, this Crown Prince that isn't taking care of himself, Xuanyuan Zhan saw that he was only attacked by his own brother, and did not kill him too badly. This is great, now we have begun again after a few days of peace."

"What's wrong, who dares to provoke the great Young Master Shangguan again?"

"Isn't he that darn crown prince?" Shangguan Yi said angrily, "The scouts just reported in, and the crown prince has some tricks up his sleeves again. When Xuanyuan Zhan just left, he was already restless, and did he not want to send people to assassinate them again?"

"This Xuanyuan Qingtian is too cunning to die, forget it, Xuanyuan Zhan himself adding on the lightning rain can still hold him off for a while." Nangong Chen said quietly, "Shangguan Yi, send people to protect them in the dark first."

"Why should I?" Shangguan Yi was not convinced, "Our Hongfei Pavilion collects information, why would I have to go to such a secret place to protect someone? I will not go."

"If you don't want to go, then that's fine too." Nangong Chen said venomously, "But if Xuanyuan Zhan accidentally died, then who do you think the crown prince will deal with next? With the Crown Prince's character, he probably could not tolerate the Hongfei Pavilion. Although the Hongfei Pavilion is a sect from the martial arts world, the imperial government has plenty of ways to eliminate outsiders. "

Shangguan Yi could not help but shiver, "Forget it, for something as dangerous as this, it's better to leave it to Xuanyuan Zhan to face. I'll leave first. " This person was truly too cold, and he didn't show any mercy when he spoke. A person like him should be able to last until the end of his life by himself. Shangguan Yi could not help but exclaim, and then bitterly walked away.
