章 1021: 399: Force her to call off the engagement

Zhu Chanyi composed herself and then began to speak, "Aren't you the one who wants my grandfather to kidnap Nun Minghui?"

Su Xinyi nodded. It was an unavoidable matter. Now that Xui Yurong's whereabouts were unknown, and Fu Yun had become a dangerous presence, Yan Qiongsi was also pushed to the brink of danger by Prince Yi.

If she didn't take action on her side, allowing Prince Yi to use Yan Qiongsi to drag down both the Empress and Prince Rong, it wouldn't just affect the Crown Prince, but once the Empress's position in the harem became unstable, Su Xinyi would be the first to suffer.

If Noble Consort Li took the opportunity to seize control over the harem, even though she, as the Crown Princess, was not afraid of her, it would still be inevitable to face constraints. It was far less straightforward and convenient than cooperating with the Empress now.
