C517: This man may know about Emperor Shunwu.

Immediately after, they heard the two people whispering there.

"Granny Wang, I don't know if Jiuye and his wife have successfully left this place."

"Is Her Highness missing them and hoping they leave soon, find the Third Prince, and find a way to see you?"

"The only mistake I made in this life was switching out my own flesh and blood back then. Now the Empress is deliberately torturing me and not giving us food to eat, just wanting to watch me die.

Even if my illness is cured by Jiuye's wife, I'm afraid this life will still not escape the Empress's wicked claws.

I only wish to see my own flesh and blood whom I have wronged for over twenty years before I die. In this life, I will have no other regrets."

"Your Highness, please don't think like that. What the Empress's faction has done is an attempt to usurp the throne. We still don't know His Majesty's situation.

If His Majesty has a chance to regain control of the court, we will be saved."

"Heh heh... No one understands His Majesty's character better than me. He is arrogant and reckless, without a clear head in times of trouble. How could we hope for such a person to turn the situation around?"

After that, Concubine Yuan was giving Granny Wang some instructions, such as if she were to die, she must tell Fei Nanyu that his birth mother wronged him, and things like that.

Mo Jiuye and He Zhiran had no interest in listening further. However, they could hear from Concubine Yuan's voice that she was no longer as weak as the day before, and her body was gradually recovering.

As long as Concubine Yuan's health was unimpaired, they had accomplished something significant for Fei Nanyu.

As for how mother and son would get along in the future, that was no longer their concern.

Mo Jiuye took He Zhiran and used their lightness skills to leap over the palace walls. Along the way, they avoided the patrolling guards and arrived outside the Emperor's sleeping quarters.

The Emperor's sleeping quarters were naturally the most luxurious place in the entire palace.

In Mo Jiuye's memory, even in the depths of night, that place should have been brightly lit.

However, today was completely contrary to his impression. Not only was it not brightly lit, there were not even any guards stationed around the palace.

From this, one could preliminarily determine that Emperor Shunwu was not there.

Nevertheless, since they had come, they naturally had to investigate thoroughly and not miss any useful clues.

Mo Jiuye carefully observed the surroundings. Apart from the occasional patrol of guards passing by, there were indeed no fixed guards stationed here.

So, after a patrol of guards had just passed, Mo Jiuye pulled He Zhiran close and the two lightly leapt over the courtyard wall.

Inside the sleeping quarters, it was pitch black. Fortunately, Mo Jiuye was familiar with the place and could find his way by the moonlight.

He took He Zhiran straight to Emperor Shunwu's bedchamber.

Emperor Shunwu's bedchamber was similar to a modern suite, with an entrance leading to a temporary office hall, and separate rooms inside for sleeping.

The door was not locked; Mo Jiuye only had to give it a light push to open it.

They had already confirmed that the entire sleeping quarters were deserted, and Emperor Shunwu's bedchamber was in the middle, surrounded by other rooms. The high walls made it impossible for anyone outside to see in unless they climbed to a high vantage point.
