Chapter 271 Confrontation
For several days in a row, Wan Yanlin was reviewing memorials in the imperial study during the day, and at night he went to Fengqi Palace to vent his anger on Yin Yue, while Su Mianyue and Bi Wu stayed in the inner room. After the intersection, even though Wan Yanlin waited patiently for Su Mianyue to figure it out, it was still difficult for her to put down her body and ask for peace.

On this day, Wan Yanlin suddenly remembered the existence of Xuezhu, and asked someone to summon Xuezhu to eat with him in the imperial study. Su Mianyue could hear the voices outside, but she pretended not to know, and was full of food. I don't know the taste of the dishes.

After eating outside, Xue Zhu did another elegant thing to add fragrance to her red sleeves, and the occasional conversation with Wan Yanlin seemed to be deeply affectionate, which made Su Mianyue feel sick to her stomach.

After about an hour, Xue Zhu said that she was a little tired and wanted to take a rest, so Wan Yanlin asked her to take a nap at the back and return to Zhaoxia Palace together at night.

"Mianyue, why are you here?" Putting her jade hand on Chuxia's arm, Xuezhu whispered in surprise, as if Su Mianyue's being here was something that shouldn't have happened.

"Concubine Xue is receiving the favor of God. If you can order Mianyue to leave the palace, Mianyue will be very grateful." Su Mianyue smiled, as if the incident with Xuezhu that day did not exist, and returned the favor to her master. Please take Xuezhu's seat.

Seeing that Su Mianyue is so comfortable even under house arrest, Xuezhu's heart is unavoidable, but it is more complicated, the reality deviates too much from her plan.

"What does it smell like? It's so pungent." Xuezhu didn't answer Su Mianyue's words, covering her mouth and nose as if about to vomit.

Chu Xia hurriedly searched around after hearing the words, and finally smelled it on the dining table, and said with a somewhat ugly face: "If you go back to your mother, it is because there is too much vinegar in the food on the table."

"Ah, it turns out that Mianyue likes to be jealous." Xue Zhu pretended to be surprised, but there was a sarcastic smile on her face.

With beautiful eyebrows, Su Mianyue was absent-minded during the meal, so she didn't notice anything wrong with the dishes. From the corner of her eye, she glanced at Biwu, who was pursing her lips, and said with a sneer, "Prisoners under the rank are not qualified to pick and choose. Xue The imperial concubine lived in the cold palace for a few days, so she must have a deep understanding."

Being hit back with a nail that was neither soft nor hard by Su Mianyue, Xue Zhu was a little annoyed, Zhao Chuxia gave her a wink, Chu Xia immediately went to Su Mianyue knowingly, and put a note into Su Mianyue's hand , and took out a small strip of charcoal pencil and a piece of rice paper folded many times and handed them to Biwu.

Looking at Su Mianyue who was reading the note, Xuezhu found another topic and said, "I didn't witness the grand ceremony of the book a few days ago because I was unwell. I heard that Mr. Su was there, so I wonder if I can tell you about the grand occasion of that day. ?”

"Concubine Xue is better not to listen. After all, the position of empress does not belong to you. Even if Concubine Xue is lucky enough to become the successor one day, there is no need to be so grand. Why bother yourself?" Su Mianyue asked in a serious manner. , and handed the note to Xuezhu to Chuxia.

Although Su Mianyue's performance has been very indifferent, but the heart is not the case, Xue Zhu dared to threaten her to transfer the hidden stake in the capital to her, is this to take away her power?
Regardless of whether Xue Zhu's actions were ordered by Wan Yanlin, or Xue Zhu wanted this group of people privately, Su Mianyue would never miss this opportunity to ask the outside world for help.

After reading the note, Xuezhu crumpled it into a ball and handed it to Chu Xia, who swallowed the small ball of paper calmly, never giving anyone a chance to check it.

On Su Mianyue's side, Biwu wanted to take the note, but Su Mianyue raised her hand and tore it into pieces so it couldn't be broken, and stuffed it into the hollow of the porcelain pillow. It's not sure if anyone will find out .

The eyes were slightly cold, several rounds of confrontation failed to stimulate Su Mianyue, Xue Zhu was not interested in staying here any longer, so she got up and left.

This time Su Mianyue didn't hear what Xue Zhu and Wanyan Lin said, obviously Su Mianyue was the one who was taboo about some things, she accepted it very calmly, it would seem that Wanyan Lin didn't need any means strangeness.

In the next few days, Wan Yanlin still didn't bother Su Mianyue, and didn't let Xuezhu come over again. If it wasn't for three meals a day and other matters as usual, Su Mianyue would really suspect that she was forgotten in this corner .

Every day at Wanyanlin's morning court, Su Mianyue would take a few books from the bookshelf outside Biwuqian to read, otherwise so many days would make her decadent.

However, after the early court today, Wan Yanlin entered the imperial study room angrily, wanted to go to the back to see Su Mianyue several times, but finally stopped.

Less than half an hour later, Su Mianyue heard noises outside the imperial study room. Although her hearing would be impaired without internal power, it was still much better than normal people's hearing.

"Please the emperor execute the demon girl Su Mianyue, otherwise I will kneel and die outside the imperial study!" The courtiers begged in unison, Su Mianyue pretended not to hear it.

"Come here, drive out these people who forced the palace!" Wan Yanlin shouted furiously, obviously murderous.

"Your Majesty can't do it. All civil and military officials are here to ask for orders. If the Emperor drives away all the ministers at this moment, I'm afraid there will be no more ministers who will dare to speak out." Zhong Ke, who has always been in charge of external affairs, spoke at this time and dissuaded him. .

"Where's the gray clothes? There's no clue yet?" Wan Yanlin asked in a cold voice, disturbed by the noise outside the door, and couldn't calm down to review the memorial at all.

"There is no news about the gray clothes." Zhong Ke replied.

"The thing I asked you to investigate, is there any result?" Wan Yanlin said, and glanced at the back of the imperial study room, his eyes were extremely contradictory.

Zhong Ke took a step forward and replied: "It has been found out that there are many spies planted by various countries and forces in the imperial capital. The subordinates have confirmed that a few people have unusual identities, and further confirmation is needed. It is just that some of them have the same identity as Su. The girl has something to do with it, and my subordinates don't know if we should continue to investigate further."

"No matter who it is related to, let me investigate to the end." Wan Yanlin gave the order without hesitation, and when Zhong Ke took the order, he ordered: "Don't disturb those people, what I want is to catch them all!"

Su Mianyue didn't hear what Wan Yanlin and Zhong Ke said in a low voice, but she knew that Zhong Ke's mission this time was very likely to be unfavorable to her, and it was not good news for Su Yu.

Feeling very anxious, Su Mianyue forgot that all the officials asked for an order to kill her.

Biwu is also worried, but Biwu is more worried about Su Mianyue's safety. If those ministers push her hard, will Wan Yanlin really do it? Biwu can't guarantee, but they can't contact their own people now , and there is no possibility of escaping from prison at all.

Both master and servant were lost in thought, even Wan Yanlin didn't notice when he walked in.

Standing at the door, looking at Su Mianyue frowning from a distance, Wan Yanlin's heart sank a little bit, and at the same time it seemed to lose its warmth.

Whether Su Mianyue didn't believe that he would keep her, or what Zhong Shi was investigating was really related to Su Mianyue, Wan Yanlin was unwilling to face it.

"Why, the disciples of Ziwu Mountain are also afraid?" Wan Yanlin asked sarcastically. Didn't Su Mianyue use Ziwu Mountain's identity to overwhelm him before?

Hearing the sound, she raised her head, ignoring Wan Yanlin's cold gaze, Su Mianyue asked, "Why did the officials force me to die? But what happened?"

Seeing Su Mianyue hide her thoughts in an instant, Wan Yanlin's heart was so blocked that he couldn't accept such obvious precautions.
