Bai Xianyu smiled. “Let’s talk inside.”
Xu Wanru nodded and got Liu Yun to go out to keep watch.
After entering the house, Xu Wanru let her sit first before she sat down.
“Miss, please accept my bow.”
Bai Xianyu wanted to help her up. “What are you doing?”
“Miss, you’re sending charcoal in the snow. I don’t know how I caught your eye. I was really terrified.” Xu Wanru insisted on bowing. Even though Bai Xianyu was much younger than her, she did not mind.
“I know that my status is low, but Heng’er is the apple of my eye. If you can keep him safe, Wanru will do anything for you! I’m willing to die for you.” She was already alone. If something happened to Heng’er, she would not want to live anymore!
There was no such thing as a show of goodwill for no reason. Since Bai Xianyu had chosen her, she definitely had something she needed.
Bai Xianyu pondered for two seconds. “How’s the Eight Prince’s current situation?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Heng’er’s health has been deteriorating recently. Even the imperial physicians can’t diagnose what’s wrong with him. I’m really worried. Miss, can you help me?”
Bai Xianyu thought of Gu Yu. “Even Physician Gu Yu can’t diagnose?”
Xu Wanru smiled sadly. “Physician Gu Yu only treats the Empress. I can’t see him even if I want to.”
Bai Xianyu patted her hand comfortingly. “Don’t worry. I have a good relationship with him. Let me talk to him.”
“Miss, I will never forget your kindness!”
Seeing that she was about to kneel down again, Bai Xianyu said helplessly, “I’m not from the palace. Mistress, you don’t have to do this.”
Xu Wanru covered her face and cried. “I can’t repay you. I wonder what you want. Tell me so that I can feel more at ease.”
“What I want is very simple.” Bai Xianyu did not beat around the bush. “I want you to fight for favor.”
Xu Wanru was shocked. “Fight for favor?”
“I want you to get to Noble Consort An’s position step by step. I will also help you.”
“But… what happened after that?”
“Then…” Bai Xianyu paused slightly.” Grade-7 Concubine Xu is a smart person.
You should be able to guess.”
Xu Wanru hesitated, but on second thought, she might not be able to save Heng’er and her lives. What else could she not do!
“Miss, do you want to help Heng’er become… the Crown Prince?” Xu Wanru said the last few words in an extremely soft voice.
Bai Xianyu heard it clearly and smiled. “No.”
Xu Wanru was confused.
“What I want… is that the position of Crown Prince will always be vacant.”
If there was always a vacancy, then her brothers would not have to take sides. Emperor Wu Xuan also would not deliberately create opportunities for the General’s Manor and the Crown Prince to get close.
Anyone could be the Crown Prince, and anyone could be assisted by them.
Correspondingly, the General’s Manor would become the target that various sects would want to win over before the Crown Prince was appointed. It would also have more time to develop its forces.
“If His Majesty is determined to appoint a crown prince, I hope it will be the Eight Prince,” Bai Xianyu said bluntly and casually, but she had the confidence to say this.
After pondering for a long time, Xu Wanru nodded slowly. There was a hint of determination in her eyes. “I will do as you say.”
Bai Xianyu propped up her chin and raised her eyelids. “Do you know why His Majesty only dotes on Noble Consort An?”
“Why?”
“Because Noble Consort An is open-minded.”

This was what Bai Xianyu was most worried about. Xu Wanru looked very elegant, but she was also as shy as a lady. The more elegant she was, the harder it was to gain favor.
It would be good if Emperor Wu Xuan liked such beauties. However, although Grade-7 Concubine Xu was quite good-looking, she was still a Grade-7 concubine after giving birth to the Eight Prince. It was obvious that he did not like such beauties.
“You should have seen many of Noble Consort An’s coquettish ways. His
Majesty is aggressive and likes this type the most.”
Xu Wanru listened. “Don’t worry, Miss. I won’t disappoint you.”
“Ehm.”
In Chengqian Palace, a group of people were kneeling on the ground and trembling.
Emperor Wu Xuan frowned as he looked at the report. “Small hidden dangers can lead to huge disasters. The dike that was just built last year was destroyed as soon as the water rose this year. What a bunch of useless people!”
“Your Majesty, please calm down. This year, Jiangnan is facing a natural disaster. You can’t blame anyone!”
“Are you saying that I’m wrong!”
“I wouldn’t dare!”
Xie Xingyun stood outside the hall in court attire. He was clearly dressed the same as everyone inside, but he was especially high-spirited.
“Get lost!”
“Yun’er, come here!”
Xie Xingyun walked in the opposite direction of the few people who were fleeing in panic. His eyes were cold. “Your Majesty..”
