For a moment, the guards looked at each other in shock, and none of them dared to step forward rashly.

The old man sneered in his heart. He had known for a long time that these people did not have the courage to stop the girl from leaving.

It would be best if the girl left. He would not let such an uneducated wild girl stay in the palace.

Thinking of this, the old man turned around and ordered: "You take the concubine down and rest. When the concubine wakes up and asks questions, tell her that you didn't catch that girl."

"If anything happens, I will be responsible for it, so you don't have to worry."

Even though the guards in the palace were still hesitant, they could only agree.

The maid stepped forward, took the concubine from the old man's hand, and walked toward the backyard.

After these people left, the old man looked at the guards in the Night Palace.

Of course the people in the Night Palace have an impression of this old man.

He used to be the steward of the palace, but because he knew about the disappearance of the young prince a few months ago and did not report it, he angered the prince, so he was kicked out of the palace.

Unexpectedly, the concubine actually took him back after she came back.

It's just that the prince did not agree to let him continue to serve as the housekeeper, so even if the princess was angry, it would not help.

"If anything happens to the young lady, the prince will definitely not let you go!" the guard of the Night Palace said with a gloomy face.

The old man sneered: "She chose to leave the palace on her own, and no one forced her to do so. Besides, there is no way that the prince would attack the concubine."

And the concubine will definitely protect him, after all, he knows all the secrets of the concubine.

The faces of the people in the Night Palace became increasingly ugly, but at this moment, the old man approached the execution hall step by step.

Their eyes were alert and they asked cautiously: "What are you going to do?"

"I want to see Miss Yunrou."

He spoke calmly and walked towards the execution hall, ignoring the intimidating gazes of the night palace guards.

"You don't have to worry, I won't let her out now, but there are some things I must see her for."

The people in the Night Palace wanted to stop him, but unfortunately they had not yet recovered their strength, so they could only watch helplessly as he approached the execution hall step by step.

There was anger in their eyes, and they stared at his back.

The old man didn't seem to see those angry eyes, so he opened the door and walked in.

The first thing that caught his eye was Nan Yunrou's pale face.

Everything that happened outside just now fell into Nan Yunrou's ears. Of course she knew what happened.

But thinking that Jun Xiaomo's identity could no longer be concealed, she gritted her teeth and asked, "What do you want from me?"

"Miss Yunrou, compared to Na Nanyan, I think you are more suitable to be the regent princess."

Nan Yunrou smiled coldly, raising the corners of her lips mockingly.

"Do you think Jun Juechen will still marry me now?"

A light flashed in the old man's eyes: "Miss Yunrou, these prince's children are all so arrogant and unreasonable. If one of them succeeds to the prince's position, I'm afraid...

Disaster for the world."

"After all, only the children you give birth to, Miss Yunrou, can be outstanding."

These words touched Nan Yunrou's heart.

Sure enough, she was not the only one who thought Nan Yan's child was a waste!

Only her son, Nan Yunrou, is qualified to become the heir to the palace.

"I also know that the child I give birth to will definitely be very smart," Nan Yunrou's eyes flashed with hatred, "But the one who is pregnant is Nan Yan! I am not willing to let her take away what belongs to me.

Got it!"

There was a sinister smile on the old man's lips: "It's not difficult for you to take back what belongs to you. You just need to follow the old slave's instructions."

Nan Yunrou clenched her fists tightly: "You mean, I can still become the regent princess?"
