Were mbers of Piaomiao Pavilion present?
So Duke North and Piaomiao Pavilion were collaborating? Was he expected to join forces with both Duke North and Piaomiao Pavilion?
Piaomiao Pavilion was renowned for its exceptional prowess, capable of captivating people with a single charm. Junyi had previously heard that every mber of Piaomiao Pavilion practiced martial arts, and even the lowest-ranked disciples could take down ten imperial army soldiers.
They were also skilled in utilizing various magical pills and weapons.
In the court, they appeared to have a strained relationship with the Jin King, who had driven them to live in hostels.
This animosity likely explained why they didn't get along.
Suddenly, everything started to fall into place.
Junyi, who had contemplated quitting, halted his thoughts and felt a surge of motivation.
Observing Junyi's reaction, Gu Ruxue smiled. Everything was proceeding according to Duke North's plan.
Gu Ruxue led Junyi all the way to the main hall of Duke North Mansion.
The mansion had changed since Junyi's last visit. It lacked the bustling atmosphere it once had and appeared rather vacant. Hidden in the corners were a few guards, Duke North's trusted subordinates.
Though the mansion seed empty, the presence of Duke North could still be felt through his silhouette.
In the lobby, Duke North sat in the central chair, his appearance capturing Junyi's careful attention.
Duke North appeared gaunt, his complexion pale and sallow, as if he were clinging to his last breath. There was a lack of vitality that contrasted sharply with the deanor of an ordinary person.
Amidst the seemingly vacant Duke North Mansion, Junyi couldn't help but feel a shiver run down his spine.I think you should take a look at
He glanced around, unable to spot anyone from Piaomiao Pavilion. Was he deceived?
"No need to search further. The elders from Piaomiao Pavilion retreated when they didn't see you. They have a gift for you," Zheng Chenyi explained, instructing his n to present it to Junyi.
Junyi recognized the charm—a powerful item that had rendered the previous Crown Prince immobile.
Piaomiao Pavilion had claid it was nothing to them.
So, Piaomiao Pavilion was indeed involved in this plan.
"Join forces with us and bring down the Jin King. Piaomiao Pavilion can offer you sothing far greater if you agree. Once we succeed, you will gain extraordinary rewards beyond your imagination. However, if your interest lies in the Saint Divine Land, you may serve your puppet King. What you choose to do is of no concern to us. What I desire is Phoenix Girl, and what Piaomiao Pavilion desires are Phoenix Girl's Golden Rolls," Zheng Chenyi declared.
"…"
"What do you think?" Zheng Chenyi clarified their intentions, then turned to Gu Ruxue and continued, "She desires to beco the Queen and indulge in a luxurious life with Gu Yunhe."
Junyi's gaze shifted from the charm to Zheng Chenyi and Gu Ruxue, and he responded, "Okay."

Back in the court.
Xie Yan remained in place even after Junyi had departed. He patiently awaited the ssenger to relay the information.
"He didn't go anywhere else; he joined forces with Gu Ruxue," the ssenger reported.
