Chapter 200 - Sudden Changes (2/2)

Seeing Nalan Cui's bitter expression, she asked, ”Cui, what's wrong?”

Nalan Cui smiled when he saw her.

He was not worried about the safety of the people. It was the pressure from the ministers that had upset him.

Su Yan learned the truth of the matter. Speaking of the imperial physician, she suddenly remembered the note that Liu Runyan had given her. She had forgotten to show it to the imperial physician.

However, considering how busy they were, it was better to wait and see.

Coincidentally, Yuyan walked in, and his expression was even more unsightly.

Seeing that they had something to discuss, Su Yan left.

The two of them stayed in the imperial study until night, and when they came out, they still did not look well.

Su Yan had nothing to do. She wandered around the imperial garden and saw a black shadow crouching under a bush of flowers. Having experienced being held hostage once, she immediately reacted. When she remembered that there were still inner guards behind her, she was a little relieved.

She picked up a stick and asked, ”Who is there?”

The black shadow froze and was about to escape.

He inadvertently turned his head and saw Su Yan. He stopped and said angrily, ”Why are you, a girl, scaring me?”

Su Yan saw his magnanimous expression and let down her guard. She looked at what was hidden behind him and asked again, ”What are you doing here, and what are you hiding behind you?”

The old man's face was covered in mud. His entire beard was plastered together, and he looked really dirty.

He approached Su Yan, and Su Yan could not help but take a step back.

Fortunately, the old man also noticed that his body was dirty, so he stood awkwardly on the spot and did not approach her again.

The old man said mysteriously, ”Little girl, do you know this is a secret? Just pretend that you haven't seen me today, or else you will delay the big event.”

Su Yan raised her eyebrows and said, ”I am Princess Consort Guang Pingwang. What big event are you talking about?”

The old man who treated her as a palace maid opened his eyes and was about to run away.

In the end, he was held in one hand by the inner guards like an eagle catching a chick.
