Jiang Shuyue secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that Du Mansion's trip was not in vain. With the eldest princess coming forward, it would be much smoother for Xiao Jingzhao to sit on the dragon throne.

"After a hard night, you guys should go back to your house and rest." Feeling sleepy, Jiang Shuyue yawned and said to Gao Mu and Cangyun.

The next morning, Jiang Shuyue failed to get up on time.

Because of what happened last night, the private school was on vacation for a few days, so Nangong Zeyue let Suisui play in the courtyard.

Nangong Zeyue sat on a wooden chair in the garden and watched Sui Sui chasing rabbits on the grass.

He picked off a leaf and played with it in his hand.

But my uncle's safety was in my heart.

There was a big chaos in the palace last night, and the master uncle could have taken advantage of the chaos and ran out of the palace.

This morning he went to the Donghua Gate to have a look. Some people said that a palace maid and a eunuch ran out of the palace last night, but the prince's people did not stop them.

Even this morning, the guards guarding the palace gate only let people out but not in.

Jiang Shuyue didn't walk out of the courtyard until noon.

She took back the medicine powder package distributed to everyone and asked Qiu Ju to share the reward with everyone.

"Miss, you overslept and didn't notice. This servant went out shopping this morning and went to Donghua Gate specifically."

"The prodigal thing in the palace was burned beyond recognition. I heard that the Queen Mother also died in the fire to save him. It was the eldest princess who personally escorted the bones to the imperial mausoleum."

Mei'er stuffed the silver into her purse and vividly described the scene at the palace gate.

Lan'er was still satisfied after hearing this. She asked curiously: "During the fighting last night, there was a river of blood visible at the palace gate?"

"No, the entrance to the palace was washed clean without a trace of blood. No one knows how many people died last night. Some people say that the commander-in-chief of the western suburbs camp knew the current affairs and surrendered to the prince's command on the spot. No one died."

"Some people also say that the harem concubines took advantage of the chaos and sneaked out of the palace disguised as palace maids, taking away a lot of property."

When Jiang Shuyue heard this, she quickly stopped Meier from continuing.

"Everyone was delayed in sleeping last night. Go to bed early tonight. Don't mention the matters in the palace again in the future."

"Miss is not going to the hospital today?" Lan'er asked and then said, "Miss also slept late last night, so I will go to the kitchen to bring food."

Mei'er and Lan'er left, and Jiang Shuyue walked towards the garden.

The branches in the garden are covered with golden osmanthus, and the rich fragrance makes people feel relaxed and happy.

When Nangong Zeyue saw Jiang Shuyue walking towards him, he pointed at Suisui, who was stroking the rabbit on the grass.

Jiang Shuyue walked over and sat on the wooden chair opposite him, "Let him play. It's finally a day off. Why don't you go to the gambling house today?"

"I've already gone out. There is no one in the gambling house. Everyone has gone to Donghua Gate."

Jiang Shuyue glanced at the ravaged leaves on the ground, raised her eyebrows and asked, "Are you worried about Uncle Lin?"

"Well, I've been to the palace gate, but I can't get out. There are so many maids and eunuchs in the palace, and I can't find a way to find out the whereabouts of my uncle."

"I believe he is fine. It was the Qianqing Palace that caught fire last night. The clean rooms are usually in remote locations. Xiao Jingzhao looks indifferent. He is not a murderer."

Nangong Zeyue changed her sitting position, her fox eyes slightly curved, "Do you know him well?"

"No, I believe he will not kill innocent people indiscriminately."

Nangong Zeyue chuckled, "The stone slab at the entrance of the palace has traces of being washed away."

"There is no change in imperial power without bloodshed."

Seeing Nangong Zeyue looking at her intently, Jiang Shuyue realized belatedly why she always spoke for him today.

Thinking about it carefully, I was right!

Not to mention the change of dynasties, even when the princes of the past generations fought for the throne, they would not show mercy when they killed each other.

I am not speaking for anyone, these things are true in any era.

"You really don't want to go to the medical clinic today?" Nangong Zeyue stopped immediately and quickly changed the subject.

"I won't go today. I'll go tomorrow." Jiang Shuyue shook her head.

In the palace.

In a remote palace, a gray-faced figure walked out of the corner.

As soon as I poked my head out, I saw a man carrying a medicine box walking towards me.

"Eunuch Lin, you are dressed like this..."

The fake eunuch Xu An was so shocked that his jaw almost dropped when he saw the knifemaker, Eunuch Lin, transformed into the clothes of the imperial hospital.

Lin Miaoshou looked around. This was a palace that had been abandoned for a long time. No one came, so he quickly walked in.

"Remember, from today on, I am not Eunuch Lin, and you are not Xiao Anzi. I am the doctor of Taiyuan Hospital, and you are the apprentice of Taiyuan Hospital."

Lin Miaoshou said as he opened the medicine box, took out a set of clothes for an apprentice from the Imperial Hospital and threw them to Xu An, "Quickly change into them."

Happiness came so suddenly, Xu An said in disbelief: "Really, I am no longer a little eunuch?"

"Stop being so nagging, quickly change your clothes and follow me to the hospital to help. You stop taking the medicine. In less than half a year, your man will still be as handsome as ever."

"Can I really do that? Won't the steward of the Ministry of Internal Affairs discover the villain?"

"Now the palace is in chaos. Last night, masters and slaves from every palace escaped from the palace. Who would pay attention to whether you are Xiao Anzi or an apprentice from the Imperial Hospital."

"Besides, after the new emperor ascends the throne, the affairs of the palace may change, and the name will be re-registered. You just need to stay with me."

Xu An's eyes turned red, "Master, please bow to me, my disciple."

With a "pop" sound, Xu An knelt down.

Lin Miaoshou quickly stretched out his hand to support him, "Silly boy, the ground hasn't been swept for a long time. Get up quickly. There are many soldiers lying in the Imperial Hospital. It's a good time for you and me to fish in troubled waters."

Xu An nodded with tears in his eyes: "Okay, I will listen to Master. Even if I find out that I am going to be beheaded, I will not even blink."

There was no one else in the hall, so Xu An took off all his clothes in no time.

Lin Miaoshou looked up and saw the wound on his arm.

"You were burned?"

Xu An shook his head, "It's okay. Last night, in order not to arouse the suspicion of the patrolling Jinyiwei, I turned around and pretended to put out the fire, and I was accidentally burned."

Lin Miaoshou looked guilty, "You are so young, and you risked being beheaded for me. Master is sorry for you. Put on your clothes quickly, Master will take you to the Imperial Hospital to apply medicine."

"Master, I am already past the age of tying my hair, and I am not young anymore. Master has treated me with great kindness. I am already working there, so it's just a small favor."

Xu An shook open the clothes of the apprentice in the Imperial Hospital and found that there was no underwear inside.

He bent down to pick up his underwear, but Lin Miaoshou stopped him, "Don't take it, just go back like this, I'll help you find the lining later."

The eunuchs' clothes are all issued uniformly by the palace, and if they are discovered, it will be hard to explain.

Fortunately, Xu An is thin, and after putting on the clothes and tying the belt, there is really no difference from the outside.

Only Xu An felt that the cool breeze from the hem of his robe rushed up as soon as he took a step.

"Master, let me carry the medicine box."

Xu An took two quick steps and took the medicine box from Lin Miaoshou.
