"I heard that the young lady of Yongning Hou's family was almost killed, so I came to have a look right away." The empress said, looking at Xiao Yuzhu who was standing beside Tang Shuyi, and said, "Poor man, come, let me have a look."

Tang Shuyi gently pushed Xiao Yuzhu, Xiao Yuzhu took a breath silently, took a few steps forward, and then saluted in a proper manner.The queen praised Xiao Yuzhu for her well-bred education. An eight or nine-year-old child, who has been through a life-and-death situation, has not yet lost his mind.

She took Xiao Yuzhu's hand, looked down at the strangle marks on her neck, felt distressed again, and ordered the maid beside her to get the best ointment, and then asked what happened.

Xiao Yuzhu was still flustered, she turned to look at Tang Shuyi.Tang Shuyi smiled and nodded at her, she looked back at the queen and said: "My lady...my lady is sitting with...cousin and Miss Li at the palace banquet, Miss Li went out to play halfway, after she left Not long after, a court lady came to find us at the palace banquet and asked if we had seen Madam Li."

Xiao Yuzhu was a little nervous at first, but then she talked more and more smoothly. She continued: "She also said that Miss Li fell into the water and was afraid after being rescued. Let us accompany Miss Li. She went to find Mrs. Li. We followed her to find I saw Miss Li, she was lying on the bed with wet hair. Cousin and the others comforted Miss Li, a maid told me that she was going to fetch clothes for Miss Li and asked me to serve ginger soup, so she led me to this room. "

Having said that, her hands trembled, and the feeling of being on the verge of death was really terrifying.

Seeing this, Tang Shuyi stepped forward, hugged her gently, and comforted her.With her mother by her side, Xiao Yuzhu was relieved a lot. She continued, "As soon as I came in, someone strangled my neck from behind. I struggled hard but it didn't work. I didn't know anything after that."

The queen frowned, "How did you wake up?"

Xiao Yuzhu: "It was... woken up by someone."

"Who woke you up?" the Queen asked.

Xiao Yuzhu shook her head, "I don't know, she and I are the only ones in the room when I open my eyes."

She pointed to the maid who fell to the ground.

The queen looked deeply at Xiao Yuzhu, she couldn't believe that Xiao Yuzhu didn't know who saved her.Feeling the Queen's gaze, Xiao Yuzhu lowered her head and hid in Tang Shuyi's arms.

Tang Shuyi patted her on the back to appease her, then bowed her hands to the queen and said, "Empress, my wife thinks that this court lady should be interrogated now."

The queen withdrew her gaze from Xiao Yuzhu, hummed and said, "Let's go to Jingren Palace."

As she said that, she turned and walked out, Tang Shuyi led Xiao Yuzhu to follow, Tang Guogong and Xiao Yuchen and the others returned to the palace banquet to wait for news.Naturally, courtiers are not allowed to enter the empress' bedroom.

Princess Changping quickly walked a few steps to catch up with the queen, and called out, "Sister-in-law Huang."

The queen glanced at her, "How did you get involved in this matter?"

Princess Changping looked aggrieved, "I don't know what's going on. I met Concubine Hui when I entered the palace today, and we chatted for a while. The matter between the Yongning Hou Mansion and the Liang family did not involve a person in my mansion. Little thing, I saw Mrs. Yongning Hou again today, and I mentioned it when I was talking to Concubine Hui.

Concubine Hui told me that there is no need to make trouble with the Yongning Hou Mansion because of one thing.The Marquis of Yongning is dead, but Tang Guogong is still there, and there are still two sons in the Marquis of Yongning's mansion. It will be a matter of time before he becomes a prince.

After I heard it, I thought it was true, so I went to the palace banquet ahead of time, and talked with Mrs. Yongninghou and the two ladies of the Duke's Mansion, trying to ease the relationship. Who would have thought that such a thing would happen! "

Having said that, she stopped, looked at the queen and asked, "It's Concubine Hui, she used me?"

The queen glanced at her indifferently, and said she was an idiot in her heart, but said: "It's just a few small talk, there is no evidence, so no conclusion can be drawn."

But she still told the people around her, "Go and call Concubine Hui to Jingren Palace."

"Yes." A father-in-law responded, and then quickly went to call for someone. Princess Changping snorted heavily: "Even if it's not her, it must have a lot to do with her."

The queen didn't speak, she said in her heart that she was from a good background and didn't participate in power struggles, otherwise she would have died countless times with her brain.

Later Tang Shuyi hugged Xiao Yuzhu in her arms, slowly followed the queen's guard of honor, and whispered to Xiao Yuzhu: "When you arrive at the queen's palace in a while, remember that what you just said can't be changed, no matter how anyone asks, it can't be changed. .”

"I know." Xiao Yuzhu said seriously.

Tang Shuyi put her lips next to her ear and explained in a low voice, "According to your description, then Li Jingyi should be an unfavored prince. He already had a difficult life. If people know that he saved you, then those who want to kill you will not Will let him go because he ruined the man's plan."

"Mother, I know." Xiao Yuzhu said seriously again.

Tang Shuyi patted her on the back, "Don't be afraid, even if the real culprit can't be found out today, mother will make those people lose their skins, and won't let you walk around the gate of hell for nothing."

Xiao Yuzhu hugged Tang Shuyi's neck tightly, tears began to flow violently again, she was really scared to death.

Tang Shuyi patted her on the back again, and said, "Even if people like us don't participate in the struggles of those people in the palace, they will inevitably be used or involved for other reasons. Today's incident is just the beginning, you You must understand that as long as you encounter someone from the royal family, you must be careful."

"I know what I did wrong today, I should just sit at the palace banquet and not go anywhere today." Xiao Yuzhu regretted to death.

Tang Shuyi hummed, "It has already happened, so don't regret it. If you want to solve it, what should you do if you encounter similar things in the future?"

Xiao Yuzhu nodded, then twisted her body and said, "Mom, I'll go by myself."

Tang Shuyi put her on the ground, wiped her tears with a handkerchief, and whispered, "Although you are in the palace, don't be afraid. You have me and your grandfather. Although your grandfather and father are dead, they are on the battlefield." The illustrious achievements in the field will not disappear, but your waist is stiff."

Xiao Yuzhu nodded, took a deep breath, straightened her waist and said, "Mother, I'm not afraid."

Tang Shuyi smiled and touched her head, then took her hand and walked forward.At this time Mrs. Tang and Mrs. Tang came to her side and told her not to be afraid, even the royal family had to be reasonable.

Tang Shuyi's heart was warm, and if something happened, the relatives stood together, and there was nothing to be afraid of.

After walking for a while, I arrived at the Queen's Jingren Palace. After sitting down, the Queen asked the maid to give Tang Shuyi a good ointment, and Tang Shuyi thanked her.At this time, everyone involved in this matter arrived, Tang Anle, Miss Xue San, Miss Li, her mother, Mrs. Li, and Concubine Hui as Princess Changping said.

When Concubine Hui saw the court lady lying on the ground trying to kill Xiao Yuzhu, she was surprised and said, "Isn't this Qing'er next to the Second Prince?"
