ss, please forgive me.
Concubine Bai’s status is special, so it isn’t someone a mere subject like me can talk about.”

Yun Jianyue was wearing a mask.
The crown princess’ cultivation wasn’t high enough, so she couldn’t tell who it was that was sending the voice transmission.

“Her status is special?” The crown princess sneered, clearly a bit unsatisfied when she heard this.
“That woman might not be good at anything else, but she really is pretty good at putting on that pitiful act.”

Yun Jianyue was shocked, because this was a voice transmission.
She didn’t know what Zu An was saying.
From what the crown princess was saying, was she talking about Concubine Bai?

But the crown princess quickly reacted and said apologetically, “I apologize, I lost my composure for a moment.
I’ve let Sir Eleven see a poor side of me.”

Yun Jianyue shook her head, indicating that it was fine.

Zu An thought to himself that the crown princess’ resentment towards Concubine Bai was quite deep! Is it because she felt that by giving birth to the crown prince’s son, she gave her a feeling of danger?

But now wasn’t the time to worry about these things.
He was worried that Yun Jianyue would eventually be exposed if they continued to chat like this, so he decided to just go on the offensive.
“The crown princess does not need to worry about my opinion of Concubine Bai.
Could it be that you are jealous?”

The crown princess’ face immediately turned entirely red.
She gave Yun Jianyue a fierce look.
“Pervert!”

She stormed off with a huff.
But from how she was leaving in such a hurry, it looked more like she was skipping.

Rong Mo and the others were shocked when they saw this and quickly rushed over.
They wanted to ask about what happened, yet the crown princess didn’t say a single word, so they didn’t dare to ask anything.
They could only quickly follow behind her.

Yun Jianyue had a strange expression on her face.
Why did the crown princess look like she pretended to be displeased?

She couldn’t help but ask Zu An, “What did you just tell her?”

Zu An harrumphed in annoyance.
“Hurry up and use this chance to leave.
Is now the time for gossip?”

Yun Jianyue’s face heated up.
She also felt like her behavior was a bit inexcusable.
She voiced her agreement and left.

Her voice was transmitted back soon afterwards.
“That person seems to have followed me out of the palace.”

Zu An was stunned.
“I didn’t see anyone else leave the palace?”

He was paying close attention to the situation the entire time.
Apart from Yun Jianyue, there was no one else who passed by the palace gate.

Yun Jianyue remained silent for a moment, and then she said, “I know what it is now.
There are some clans with special hiding abilities, for example, the dark elves who can move through shadows.
This individual is probably using something similar.”

Zu An said with worry, “Then I’ll come out and help you!”

“There’s no need.
I’ll find a chance to get rid of him when there is a chance once I get out of here.” Yun Jianyue was back to her domineering sect master self.

“Then you have to be careful!” Zu An thought to himself that this made sense.
Once she left the palace, she didn’t have to be so worried about the emperor’s divine will.
Dealing with a hidden assassin wasn’t too difficult.
If he went out, it would instead easily expose his connection with Golden Token Eleven.

Zu An returned to the eastern palace to report to the crown princess after leaving the gate.
When he walked towards the eastern palace gate, he saw that the crown prince was playing go with some lesser eunuchs.

Little He and Little Xu looked absolutely miserable.
They were being abused by the big fatty right now.

The crown prince was extremely happy when he saw Zu An come over.
“Come here, come here! These dummies don’t even know how to play go.”

Little He and Little Xu both cursed inside. Like hell we’ll know how to play! If we knew, why would we become eunuchs?

In this age, go was a game of class.
It was something only nobles and wealthy families knew.

“Go?” Zu An gave him a confused look.
Is this fella’s intelligence great enough to play such a complicated game?

I can’t even play well with my smarts.

“The crown prince knows how to play go?” He couldn’t help but ask.

The fatty’s face fell.
“That’s why I want you to teach me! Whatever, if you don’t teach me, then I’m going to have them send you to the castration room.”

Zu An: “……”

This damn fatty really was annoying sometimes!

The eunuchs gave him a look of sympathy.
They had no idea what was up with the crown prince so suddenly today.
He suddenly insisted on learning how to play go! Forget about them knowing how to play, even if they did know, teaching this crown prince would be an impossible task.

The crown prince gave Zu An a look.
“What are you staring blankly for? Do you not know?”

Zu An coughed and said, “Isn’t it just go? This is but a simple matter.”
