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

Ye Xuwan's heart skipped a beat, and the smile that had been on her face froze for a few seconds.

what?
Ye Xuwan seemed a little unable to believe her ears.

"His Royal Highness...what did you say?"

"What, your ear is broken?"

Mo Yunzheng raised his eyebrows slightly, seeming very careless.

"Is there anything strange about this? Gu is the same age as the imperial brother. Not to mention that he already had a wife before. After all, Gu is also the prince of the dynasty. It is too late for him to have no wives and concubines. You have been by Gu's side for the longest time. Naturally, I trust you the most."

"Xiao Yezi, you know Gu's preferences best. I leave it to you, Gu is most at ease."

Ye Xuwan didn't know how to describe her mood at this moment. She seemed to have forgotten what her mission and goal was.

Isn't her mission to let Mo Yunzheng go on the right path to prevent him from turning black and being killed?

She had tried so hard to bring Mo Yunzheng and Lin Fengming together just for this reason. Although the two of them had broken off their engagement, if Mo Yunzheng really picked a suitable princess, it would definitely have a big impact. The role of.

Logically speaking, Ye Xuwan should be happy.

But why, I feel sour in my heart.

An indescribable feeling filled Ye Xuwan's heart, and she could no longer hear what Mo Yunzheng was saying.

After an unknown amount of time, Mo Yunzheng raised his hand and waved it in front of her.

"Little Ye Zi? Did you listen to Gu's words?"

Ye Xuwan was stunned for two seconds, then hurriedly took two steps back and nodded.

"Yes, slave, listen."

"His Royal Highness wants to choose a Crown Princess. It is a blessing for me to have a servant help me. I will definitely fulfill my duties and help His Highness select the best Crown Princess."

Looking at Ye Xuwan's reaction just now, I thought she was very dissatisfied, but Mo Yunzheng saw that she was in a good mood, but he didn't expect that just a short time had passed, and she seemed to have changed. .

Mo Yunzheng frowned, with an unspeakable meaning deep in his eyes.

"Little Ye Zi, are you really willing?"

Mo Yunzheng clenched his fists quietly, as if he wanted to hear a completely different answer from the person in front of him.

But this is not the case.

Ye Xuwan nodded, looking very energetic.

"That's natural. I will definitely live up to His Highness. If Your Highness can find a good Crown Princess, it will be a blessing for this servant, right?"

"Ah."

Mo Yunzheng, who had been smiling just now, seemed to have been poured cold water on him. He sneered and stood up from the rocking chair.

His eyes glanced at Ye Xuwan, and Mo Yunzheng felt unspeakable annoyance deep in his eyes.

"I know that you are the most proud eunuch around me. Leave this matter to you, don't worry."

"Little Ye Zi, you have to choose carefully for me."

Ye Xuwan lowered her eyes. She could feel Mo Yunzheng's cold gaze, but she didn't have the courage to raise her head to face him.

"Yes."

Ye Xuwan responded softly.

"The slave obeys."

For the past two days, the East Palace seemed to have been covered with ice, and everything was cold. Even Ye Xuwan, who was usually the most energetic, didn't like to talk much.

Xiao Xizi felt uncomfortable no matter how she was being treated. She finally mustered up the courage to rush into Ye Xuwan's room and watched her in a daze while looking at a bunch of portraits on the table.

Xiao Xizi doesn't understand.

"Eunuch Xiao Yezi, what are you doing?"

With that said, Xiao Xizi walked over quietly.

Ye Xuwan regained some of her energy when she saw the person coming. She responded and put away the messy portraits on the table one by one.

"Xiao Xizi, you came just in time to help me choose."

Xiao Xizi frowned and looked at the portraits of beauties on the table in confusion. This... what is going on?
Xiao Xizi made an unrealistic but very reasonable explanation in her mind.

"Eunuch Little Ye Ye, are you afraid you are leaving the palace?"

Ye Xuwan's already confused mind was suddenly stopped by Xiao Xizi.

"Ah? Why do you say that!"

"Then what are you doing? Didn't His Highness the Crown Prince reward you and let you choose here?"

As Xiao Xizi said that, she felt something was wrong. It wasn't right. Eunuch Xiao Yezi and His Highness the Crown Prince weren't...

"What are you talking about?"

Before Xiao Xizi could finish her words, she was interrupted by Ye Xuwan. He pointed at the portrait on the table and spoke in a calm tone, as if he was deliberately hiding his feelings, making it impossible for anyone to hear what she was thinking.

"This is the eldest daughter of Prime Minister Lin's family, and this is Zuo Shi's youngest daughter..."

Xiao Xizi was a little surprised when he mentioned several names in succession, all of which were daughters of well-known families.

"Which young lady here do you think is willing to be with a eunuch like me?"

Ye Xuwan asked next.

Xiao Xizi swallowed, and her frown deepened.

"Is it possible..."

"This is a task given to me by His Highness. The Emperor wants to order the selection of a Crown Princess for His Highness. His Highness asked me to choose for him first."

This sentence was like a heavy thunder blow, which made Xiao Xizi feel dizzy.

"Princess?"

Xiao Xizi confirmed again. In his heart, wasn't the Crown Princess of the East Palace her father-in-law Xiao Yezi's?
"What princess?"

Just as he was talking, a familiar voice came from outside the door. Lin Fengming walked into Ye Xuwan's room heroically wearing a light red robe. She glanced at the countless portraits of beauties on the table and frowned.

"Mo Yunzheng wants to choose the crown princess?"

"Miss Lin."

Seeing Lin Fengming coming, Ye Xuwan hurriedly saluted. Lin Fengming motioned for him to lie flat and looked at the portrait in front of him with slight anger.

"Is this the emperor's will or Mo Yunzheng's own intention?"

"Miss Lin."

Ye Xuwan hurriedly stopped Lin Fengming's words. Although Mo Yunzheng never cared what others called him, this was in the palace after all, and walls had ears. If it reached the emperor's ears, it would be contempt of imperial power.

"It's better to be careful with your words and actions."

Ye Xuwan continued.

Lin Fengming sighed and looked at the portrait with anger.

"I thought I had found the right person, but I didn't expect everyone in the royal family to be like this. I thought he had a loved one, so we negotiated and agreed to cancel the engagement, but we ended up reaching this point."

"Absurd, really absurd."

Lin Fengming said, looking at Mo Yunzheng's closed door and giving him a sharp look.

Ye Xuwan hurriedly took Lin Fengming's hand.

"Miss Lin, I haven't asked you yet, why are you free to come to the East Palace today, but why do you have something to see His Highness?"

"There was something wrong before, but now it's okay."

Lin Fengming spoke softly and in a low voice.

"I went on an expedition with my father and brother a few days ago. I heard that my aunt gave birth to a dragon son, so I came here specifically to visit. In this case, Eunuch Xiaoye, please come with me."

Ye Xuwan was stunned for two seconds. No, she seemed to be a slave of the East Palace.

"But, His Highness the Crown Prince..."

"Why, the Crown Princess is so tired that you give me a choice, but you don't even want to go out and relax?"
