Early before Nan Xi came, a maid from the Regent's Palace brought hot tea and snacks. After Nan Xi sat down, Yin Yue took the initiative to pour Nan Xi a cup of tea, and then quietly retreated to stand behind Nan Xi.

Yin Yue obviously did not intend to give face to Miss Wen's request to dismiss the attendants.

"Miss Wen, you can say whatever you want." Nan Xi smiled faintly, "Yin Yue and Yin Shuang are not gossipy people."

Wen Lan's expression was calm: "Some words are not suitable for a third person to hear."

Nan Xi was silent after hearing this, and then nodded indifferently: "In this case, Yin Yue, Yin Shuang, you can go out first and stand where you can't hear our conversation."

"Miss——"

"Go." Nan Xi said, "In the palace, are you afraid that someone will harm me?"

Yin Yue still wanted to struggle.

Although this is reasonable, her prince's order is very strong, that is, they are not allowed to leave the girl's side.

Indeed, being in the Regent's Palace, there is no fear that anyone will dare to harm Nan Xi.

Let’s not talk about whether Wen Lan has this ability. Even if she does, she won’t be stupid enough to risk the future and fate of the entire Wen family.

They all understand this principle, but understanding is one thing. If Nan Xi really loses a hair, even if she loses the entire Wen family, it may not be able to eliminate the prince’s anger.

That’s why Yin Yue is so unwilling.

However, Nan Xi is indeed a little curious about the purpose of Wen Lan’s coming here at this time. She turned her head and said, "Be obedient, stand outside the flower hall, and I will have a private talk with Miss Wen for a while."

Yin Yue’s mouth twitched, private talk?

Nan Xi looked at the four maids behind Wen Lan, and said calmly, "Should Miss Wen’s maids also retreat?"

Wen Lan nodded: "Of course."

After that, he raised his hand casually and gestured, "You all go outside and wait."

"Yes, Miss."

Seeing Nan Xi’s firm attitude, Yin Yue and Yin Shuang had to turn around and walk outside obediently, but they didn’t dare to go far. They stood close to the pillars beside the corridor, always paying attention to the movements in the flower hall.

Nan Xi said, "Miss Wen, you can say whatever you want to say now."

Wen Lan pondered for a moment, as if thinking about how to start: "Miss Nan should have a very important position in the heart of the Regent."

Nan Xi did not expect her to start with such a sentence, and raised her eyebrows slightly: "What does Miss Wen want to say?"

"The Regent probably really wants to marry Miss Nan." Wen Lan smiled lightly, "But does Miss Nan think she is worthy of the Regent?"

Nan Xi wanted to close the door and let the dog out.

Sure enough, she shouldn't be curious. Disgusting people are disgusting wherever they go.

"Whether I am worthy of the regent should have nothing to do with others." Nan Xi curled her lips, with a hint of mockery at the corner of her lips, "If the regent thinks I am worthy, then I am obviously worthy."

Wen Lan turned her head to look outside the pavilion, and said calmly: "To be honest, the current emperor is not a tolerant and generous emperor."

Nan Xi's eyebrows moved slightly: "So what?"

"The regent holds two-thirds of the military power of the three great kingdoms, and has great power in the court. No minister in the court disrespects him, and no one does not fear him." Wen Lan turned his head and looked at Nan Xi, "If you were the emperor, wouldn't you be restless day and night, and wish to get rid of him immediately?"

"So what?" Nan Xi sneered casually, "The emperor is just thinking about it, he can't do anything to the regent."

"When the emperor is more powerful and the throne is stable in the future, there will definitely be a day when he and the regent will break up."

Nan Xi Smiled lightly: "As the granddaughter of the Grand Tutor, I thought Miss Wen only needed to learn the arts of music, chess, calligraphy and painting well, and maintain her reputation as a talented woman, to be a qualified noble lady from a noble family. I didn't expect Miss Wen to be able to guess the emperor's mind."

"This is not speculation, I am just stating a fact, a fact that will definitely happen in the near future." Wen Lan looked at her expressionlessly, "All the civil and military officials in the court predicted this result."

"So what?"

Wen Lan said: "If the regent was not born late, the throne of the emperor would not be taken by others."

Nan Xi said lightly: "But he was born late, what can we do about it?"

Wen Lan looked arrogant: "But don't you think that a man as proud as him should be born to stand proudly in the clouds?"

A man like Rong Yu is indeed born noble and never submits to others, like a white crane standing proudly above the sky.

Nan Xi wholeheartedly agrees with this.

In this cognition, she and Wen Lan can be regarded as heroes with similar views.

"The regent has military power, and many of the civil and military officials in the court are his confidants. With the support of the Wen family, I believe that even if he really falls out with the emperor in the future, he can still do it-"

"What do you mean?" Nan Xi interrupted her, her tone as light as water, "Miss Wen means to let the regent usurp the throne?"

"Not usurpation." Wen Lan denied, "When the power in the hands of the regent is large enough, he can completely abolish the emperor."

Nan Xi looked at her steadily. The color in his eyes was strange and unpredictable, "Miss Wen is very brave."

"Miss Nan, don't be surprised." Wen Lan said, "Any large family with thriving branches and leaves can't just look at the surface and ignore the crisis behind it."

Nan Xi said: "Is there a crisis in the Wen family?"

Wen Lan said: "Not yet, but everything needs to be prevented before it happens."

Nan Xi held the teacup, sipped the tea carelessly, and said nothing.

The meaning of Wen Lan's words is very clear. If one day in the future, the regent and the emperor have a fierce conflict, and the two sides have to decide whether to win or lose, the Wen family can stand on the side of the regent.

Rong Yu had military power and confidants in the court. If he really wanted to usurp the throne, it would be almost effortless.

However, there are inevitably a few pedantic and stubborn veterans in the court. The major families behind these veterans have deep roots and are difficult to shake for a while. If they cause trouble, the impact will not be small.

So if there is another strong support from Mr. Wen, then this last obstacle will disappear directly.

Nan Xi understood that Wen Lan used this incident to negotiate terms with her today.

But Nan Xi didn't intend to negotiate any deal with her at all. She raised her eyes to look at Wen Lan and said calmly: "You should go directly to the regent about the throne of Jiangshan, and you should talk in secret in the study. You know that I know, no. A third person should know. I’m afraid it’s not appropriate for us two young ladies to talk about this.”

"I like the regent. Except for the regent, no one from this imperial family can catch my eye." Wen Lan said in a arrogant tone, "My requirements are not high. As long as the regent marries me, then the Wen family will be his most powerful one in the future." backing.”

Nan Xi raised her eyebrows and raised her red lips slightly: "Isn't this a high request? Does Miss Wen think she is destined by the Golden Phoenix?"
