Chapter 213 Talking about Cooperation
"It's you, has anyone discovered your whereabouts?"
What Yu Guiwan is most worried about now is Xie Sui. The person who can stop Xie Sui must be no ordinary person. It seems that he needs to be more careful now.
Xie Sui nodded, then continued, "We pried a mysterious figure out from those people's mouths. He was the mastermind behind all these plans. However, no one has actually seen that person, so it's impossible to draw a portrait."
"If you want to enter the palace, it's too dangerous. I'll have someone follow Yong'an into the palace to find medicinal herbs. You can't enter the palace anymore."
Xie Sui held Yu Guiwan's shoulders with both hands, his expression solemn.
Yu Guiwan wanted to say something more, but the next second, Xie Sui's soft lips blocked her mouth. In a light kiss, Xie Sui quickly let go of Yu Guiwan, "Don't say anything more. Have a good rest."
She frowned and let Xie Sui help her lie down and cover her with the quilt.
"The most important thing for you now is to rest and not think about other things."
Xie Sui spoke in a gentle tone and sat down beside Yu Guiwan's bed, "Go to sleep, I won't leave until you fall asleep." Yu Guiwan simply argued with Xie Sui again, as there was nothing to argue about at the moment.
There are still a few days before entering the palace, it’s not too late to talk about it then.
Thinking this way, perhaps because Xie Sui was by her side, she quickly fell asleep. The gentleness in Xie Sui's eyes suddenly disappeared when she heard Yu Guiwan's steady breathing.
Before leaving, Xie Sui kissed Yu Guiwan on the forehead before leaving the house.
……
"Three-quarters of the remaining people will be arranged around the post station to protect the princess's safety, and the rest can stay with me." Xie Sui made arrangements immediately. He could not show up in the next few days.
It won’t be too late to show up again after finding the person behind it.
When Bei Chu heard Xie Sui's order, he immediately advised, "Your Highness, you can't do that!"
"Now that they have discovered you are in Zhao State, the most dangerous people are you and the princess. It would be too dangerous if you were to stay with only these people at this time."
Bei Chu knelt on the ground and looked at Xie Sui.
"go a head."
Xie Sui waved his hand and said, "Give the order again and leave here immediately. We can't stay here any longer." Xie Sui knew that Ah Wan would be worried about him, so he naturally would not ignore his own safety.
So he decided to leave here temporarily early in the morning.

The next day.
The maid brought the medicine that Yu Guiwan was going to drink and said, "Put down the medicine and go out." Yu Guiwan leaned against the bed and gave the order.
"Yes."
The maid put down the medicine and left the room.
At this time, Yu Guiwan spoke, "Come out." Yu Guiwan looked towards a corner. She didn't know when the man came in from the back window. If she hadn't remembered that the window was closed last night, she really wouldn't have noticed him.
As soon as he finished speaking, a person came out from the corner.
It was a woman dressed in black, and she looked like she was injured.
"Bai Huaxu sent you?"
Yu Guiwan looked at her and guessed who she was at the first moment, but she had no idea how she was injured.
"Princess Chen is indeed smart."
The woman in black bowed.
Suddenly, Yu Guiwan threw a medicine bottle at her. The woman in black quickly caught it. Then she heard Yu Guiwan's voice again, "This is the antidote for your young master. Once you get the medicine, leave quickly."
After Yu Guiwan did everything she was supposed to do, she ordered them to leave.
"Princess Chen, my master said that he will wait for you at the old place tomorrow to discuss a deal with you." The man in black said this and left the house without waiting for Yu Guiwan's response.
Only then did Yu Guiwan get off the bed, pick up the bowl of medicine on the table and drink it all in one gulp.
transaction?
What kind of deal could she have with Bai Huaxu?
Yu Guiwan knocked on the edge of the table, thinking in his heart.
……
The next day, Yu Guiwan finally went out. She had thought about it for a long time the previous night, and finally decided to go meet Bai Huaxu. The Bai family was quite influential in Zhao State, and since he had no hostility towards them, he might be a good partner for cooperation.
When Yu Gui arrived late, Bai Huaxu's guards immediately took her to the second floor. There was no one in the restaurant today. She went upstairs and saw Bai Huaxu sitting alone in the private room.
The guard did not go in again, but made a 'please' gesture to Yu Guiwan.
Yu Guiwan walked in and said, "Mr. Bai is really generous. He booked this restaurant." As he spoke, Yu Guiwan had already entered the private room. The guards did not close the door, but stood guard at the door.
Yu Guiwan sat down first, looked at Bai Huaxu and said directly, "I wonder what kind of deal Mr. Bai wants to discuss with me?"
Seeing her being so direct, Bai Huaxu laughed out loud, "You're so polite." Then he sat down.
"I will protect your safety, and you, the Xia Kingdom, must become our helper and help us ascend the throne." Bai Huaxu didn't beat around the bush. When he said this, his whole expression changed.
"Assistance?"
Everyone knew that the Bai family belonged to the prince. As long as he restrained himself and continued to win over the Bai family, and the prince was deeply favored by His Majesty, then unless something unexpected happened, the future King of Zhao would definitely be the prince.
Then Bai Huaxu would never cooperate with them, because there is another prince under the crown prince.
The third prince, whom she had met at the banquet that day.
"The one you support is the Third Prince?"
Yu Guiwan widened his eyes, as if he had discovered a shocking secret, "You're telling me your secret just like that?" Yu Guiwan looked suspicious, and his expression became solemn as he looked at Bai Huaxu.
"What else is your purpose?"
Yu Guiwan's face turned cold.
Bai Huaxu looked at Yu Guiwan's reaction and chuckled, "Princess Chen is too cautious. Besides, didn't you guess it yourself?" Bai Huaxu raised his eyebrows. In comparison, Yu Guiwan was serious, and he looked much more relaxed.
Yu Guiwan was skeptical, then said, "Then let's continue to discuss cooperation."
She wanted to hear how Bai Huaxu was going to cooperate with them.
Bai Huaxu cupped his hands and said, "Princess Chen, please let His Highness talk to you in person. I am not qualified to make the decision for His Highness."
As soon as he finished speaking, a tall figure suddenly appeared at the door.
The third prince.
Yu Guiwan immediately stood up and bowed slightly, "Greetings to the Third Prince."
"The princess is a heroine. I have witnessed your abilities at the banquet that day, so I wanted to discuss this cooperation with you." As soon as the third prince walked in, he praised her without hesitation.
"Please take a seat, Princess."
After Yu Guiwan sat down, he looked at the Third Prince and said, "Since the Third Prince can come here in person, this matter must be no simple matter, right?" Yu Guiwan immediately stated the purpose of his visit today.
Then there is only one purpose, which is to prevent Princess Yong'an from marrying smoothly!
Thinking of this, she narrowed her eyes.
