After transmigrating into the book, the prime minister always wants to farm with me.

Chapter 494 The Emperor ordered you to spy on me?
Qi Yunran listened carefully to the Empress's words, fell into deep thought, and then her eyes hardened: "Your Majesty, my husband and I know what to do."

Seeing the ruthlessness in Qi Yunran's eyes, the Empress was secretly pleased: "Then I'll have to trouble you, sister and the Prime Minister."

"Your Majesty, rest assured, I will certainly give you a satisfactory result."

The Empress's smile widened: "What are your plans, sister?"

Qi Yunran gave her a meaningful look!
The Empress quickly tried to salvage the situation, saying, "I was just worried about my sister and the Prime Minister."

Qi Yunran gave a cold smile: "Your Majesty need not worry. My husband knows what is best for Jingxuan. Just wait for the 'good news'!"

After saying that, he immediately stood up and hurriedly prepared to take his leave.

The Empress saw Qi Yunran walking hurriedly and a deep meaning flashed in her eyes.

Then, she said to the lady-in-waiting beside her, "This virtuous lady was even more agitated than I was when she heard that the Crown Prince was to be deposed. It seems that the Prime Minister's mansion has quite a scheme in mind. She is also a power-hungry person."

The lady-in-waiting remained silent, her head bowed. From her observations along the way, she concluded that this virtuous lady was impatient and lacked common sense.

They speak without thinking, daring to say anything that comes to mind.

This is utterly outrageous. Since she is such a person, it seems that she was indeed fooled when she tried to reassure the Empress. After all, even she, a female official standing to the side, could sense the fleeting murderous intent in her eyes.

"Your Majesty need not worry. If they dare to harm the child born to that beauty, it will be a capital offense punishable by the extermination of their entire family."

A cold glint flashed in the Empress's eyes: "Go, have someone keep an eye on them. If she gets lost, guide her!"

"Yes!" The female official withdrew and arranged for an unfamiliar maid to go find Lady Xian. As soon as Qi Yunran left Fengyi Palace, she immediately went to find Pei Yuanjun.

Meanwhile, Pei Yuanjun had already drunk four cups of tea and still hadn't seen the Emperor. So, he stood up and strode out of the hall.

Eunuch Desheng immediately stopped him: "Prime Minister, His Majesty is busy with very important matters right now. Please sit back and wait patiently. His Majesty will be here shortly."

Pei Yuanjun's eyes flashed with a deep light, and he said indifferently, "I will go outside the palace to greet the Emperor. After all, it is only right to go out and greet him in order to see him as soon as possible."

Hearing this, Eunuch Desheng couldn't find a reason to refute him, but he still said, "His Majesty instructed this old servant to serve the Prime Minister well, and this old servant dares not let His Majesty see that this old servant has neglected the Prime Minister!"

"You're overthinking it, sir. I'm just going outside for some fresh air. It's nothing to be negligent. But if you're worried, you can come with me."

These words were quite meaningful, but Eunuch Desheng pretended not to understand: "Your Excellency is joking."

Pei Yuanjun ignored him and strode forward. Eunuch Desheng immediately said anxiously, "Prime Minister, you mustn't do this! Why don't you wait inside the palace?"

Pei Yuanjun suddenly turned around and looked coldly at Eunuch Desheng: "His Majesty has important matters to attend to, so I will not disturb him. However, Eunuch Desheng's obstruction makes one wonder if His Majesty has ordered you to serve me or to monitor me? Is it His Majesty's will to forbid me from leaving the palace? Is His Majesty placing me under house arrest?"

Eunuch Desheng was startled: "Your Excellency is joking, the Emperor has never said such a thing."

Pei Yuanjun turned and strode away: "You don't need to come with me. Otherwise, when I see the Emperor later, I'll tell him that Eunuch Desheng told me that the Emperor ordered you to monitor me."

Eunuch Desheng was paralyzed with fear, watching helplessly as the Prime Minister walked out of the main hall. He couldn't follow him; if he messed things up today, he would lose his head.
