Jiang Huai sat at his seat, drinking one glass of wine after another.

Outside the hall, Jiang Meiyin's screams were heard.

"Empress, the fifty lashes have been completed. Miss Jiang has fainted."

When Jiang Huai heard the report from the guard, his face turned pale and he couldn't control himself several times. He wanted to leave his seat and go to check on Jiang Meiyin's condition.

But seeing Shen Qiuchi sitting on the high seat with a smile on his face and looking at her with threatening eyes, Jiang Huai suppressed her inner impulse.

He couldn't put all ten members of his family to death just because of Jiang Meiyin!

Just when the atmosphere at the banquet was tense, Xiao Qi suddenly smiled and spoke to ease the atmosphere: "Look at how excited Miss Jiang was. She almost fainted. Minister Jiang, I'll trouble you again to send someone to send your daughter back."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, Your Majesty." After receiving the nod, Jiang Huai bowed roughly, then left the banquet and headed out of the hall.

Jiang Mei was thrown at the door, covered in blood, breathing weakly.

"Meiyin! My daughter, I'm sorry. I can't protect you!" Jiang Huai hugged Jiang Meiyin tightly in his arms, feeling heartbroken beyond words.

Shen Qiuchi! One day, he will take revenge with his own hands! Get justice for his daughter!

Shen Qingxu was full and felt bored watching the singing and dancing at the banquet.

There were only these kinds of songs and dances over and over again, and she was already tired of them.

"Sister Qingfang, I've eaten a little too much. Can we go out for a walk?" Shen Qingxu gently tugged at the corner of Qingfang's clothes who was waiting beside her, blinking her big eyes and said coquettishly.

Qingfang glanced at Shen Qiuchi in embarrassment and said, "I will go ask the Queen."

After learning the whole story, Shen Qiuchi nodded: "If she wants to go, let her go, and send someone to protect her."

"The slaves obey."

Looking at Shen Qiuchi's expression above, Shen Qingxu knew that this matter was almost certain.

"Princess, the Queen Mother agreed, but she also reminded me not to play around too much, as we will be watching the moon together later."

Shen Qingxu nodded like a chick pecking at rice, then quietly left the table.

The moment she arrived at the Imperial Garden, Shen Qingxu fell into a state of relaxation.

She faced the artificial lake and breathed in the air.

While he was daydreaming, he felt even more distressed for Shen Qiuchi.

This deep palace is so stuffy, but Shen Qiuchi has lived here alone for so many years, taking every step carefully.

How hard it must be for her facing all kinds of attacks, open and covert.

Has she ever thought about leaving the palace and becoming an ordinary person who lives a relaxed and comfortable life?

"Shen Qingxu! You must be very proud now!"

Suddenly, a familiar female voice came from behind Shen Qingxu.

She turned around and saw Qin Si.

Yes, today is the Mid-Autumn Festival state banquet. As the daughter of the Minister of Justice, it is not surprising for Qin Si to be here.

"What am I proud of?" Shen Qingxu looked calm on the surface, but was actually howling like crazy inside!

elder sister!

Mu Yunzhou!

Sister Qingfang!

Light rain! Yilan!

Who will save her!

This Qin Si is not a good person!

She just came out to get some fresh air, why did Qin Si cause trouble for her?

This is not a library!

Thinking of this, Shen Qingxu suddenly calmed down.

Yes, this is not a study but a palace. Qin Si would definitely not dare to do anything to her.

"Your sister is the Queen, you must be very proud of it! Her light words can decide a person's life, death and future. What did Jiang Meiyin do wrong!" Qin Si's face was distorted.

She and Jiang Meiyin have always been close friends. Although they had some unpleasantness because of a man before, this did not prevent her from coming to Shen Qingxu to seek justice for her!

"You're talking nonsense. Jiang Meiyin has done a lot of bad things and this is her retribution." She knew that what Qin Si said was wrong, but she didn't know how to refute it. Then she thought of the bad things Jiang Meiyin had done, and she opened her mouth to refute it.

"She doesn't know your identity, she just took the lead in ostracizing you and said a few words about you behind your back! It has no impact on you, but you have to suffer fifty lashes of the cane! And even have to marry such a playboy!"

"You mean, if she wasn't a princess, and her sister wasn't the current queen, she deserved to be bullied by you? Aren't you at fault at all?"

At this time, Mu Yunzhou's unique duck voice sounded behind Qin Si.

Shen Qingxu seemed to have seen a savior all of a sudden!

She took a step and wanted to walk over.

"You haven't made your point yet. Where are you going? Don't go! Stop right there." Qin Si stretched out her hand to stop her, but unexpectedly dragged Shen Qingxu into the lake!

Qin Si looked at his hands in disbelief, and then stared blankly at Shen Qingxu struggling in the lake. The crazy woman who threw the boy out was actually dragged into the lake by her...

The cold lake water enveloped Shen Qingxu's whole body.

She struggled hard in the water, trying to float to the surface, but it was no use!

I choked on the water several times because I was so anxious.

After living for two lifetimes, she still couldn't swim very well. It was ok for her to be able to step on the bottom, but this artificial lake was ten feet deep, and she couldn't feel the bottom of the lake at all.

God knows how she sprained her ankle just now, and was pulled by Qin Si and fell into the lake.

Qin Si stood on the shore, staring blankly at Shen Qingxu who was struggling in the water. She looked obviously frightened.

Mu Yunzhou's body reacted faster than his brain. By the time he came to his senses, he had already swam towards the shore carrying Shen Qingxu.

When Wei Yu came over with a cloak, she saw Shen Qingxu, who was soaked and unconscious.

"This...what's going on?!" Wei Yu was shocked and ran towards Shen Qingxu in two steps.

"Go and report to the Queen that Minister Qin's daughter has pushed the princess into the water." Mu Yunzhou's face turned pale, with deep anger between his brows.

Qin Si was even more frightened when she heard this. She kept backing away, muttering, "It's not me, it's not me!"

"Not me, not me."

When Shen Qiuchi got the news and rushed over, he saw Shen Qingxu, pale and unconscious in Mu Yunzhou's arms.

"Xuan Imperial Physician!" The air pressure around Shen Qiuchi dropped. She looked at her pale sister, then glanced at the culprit next to her with murderous intent.

My sister, who was so lively just now, became what she is now after just a short while.

Shen Qiuchi even wanted to kill Qin Si!

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Your Majesty."

"Don't worry about these empty things, just check on the princess's condition."

Xiao Qi put his arm around Shen Qiuchi's shoulders and comforted her silently.

The imperial physician only checked her pulse and then looked at Wei Yu who was standing beside her: "The princess is choking on some water. You need to squeeze the water out."

Mu Yunzhou laid Shen Qingxu flat on the ground, and Weiyu pressed her chest.

After pressing her chest a few times, Shen Qingxu suddenly spat out a few mouthfuls of water. She was a little confused and didn't care about her surroundings. She was gasping for breath and slowly came to mind. She thought she was dead.

When Shen Qiuchi saw his sister wake up, his tense heart relaxed a little.

"What on earth is going on!"

"I came out for some fresh air and happened to meet Miss Qin Si, the daughter of Minister Qin, talking to the princess. When the princess saw me, she wanted to step forward to reminisce about the past, but Miss Qin Si attacked her and pushed the princess into the water." Mu Yunzhou succinctly recounted the entire incident.

He only knew that Shen Qingxu had a bad relationship with those noble ladies, but he didn't expect that Qin Si was so bold that he dared to drag Shen Qingxu into the water in front of him.

This is a place where he can't see, and Qin Si might bully Shen Qingxu in any way!
