Liu Yueru held her forehead with one hand, did not argue, but just closed her eyes gently, and waved with the other hand to let the maid leave.

The maid bowed slightly to Liu Yueru, then stepped back.

When she turned around, Liu Yueru clearly saw a triumphant smile on the corner of the maid's mouth, but it was only a fleeting one.

After leaving the yard, the maid walked into the woods nearby.

She gave some instructions to the man in front of her.

The man nodded repeatedly at the maid with a lustful smile on his face.

The maid gave the man a disgusted look, then pointed to the courtyard where Liu Yueru was and said, "Go."

After getting the maid's consent, the man rubbed his hands and let her walk towards the yard.

Earlier, the palace banquet was going on as normal.

The Queen was walking in the garden admiring the flowers, surrounded by a group of noble ladies. At this time, Ye Tao returned to the pavilion to look for Liu Yueru.

Seeing that they were not here, he looked obviously nervous.

This caused him to accidentally bump into the guide nanny in front of him.

The guide nanny yelled at Ye Tao in annoyance, "Whose maid is this? You are so hasty. If you offend the queen, can you bear the consequences?"

Ye Tao was frightened and knelt down beside her: "Hello, Queen, and all the nobles, I just couldn't find our wife, and I was anxious and bumped into the Queen and the nobles. It's all my fault. Please punish me, Queen."

The Queen Mother glanced at Ye Tao in front of her and felt that she looked familiar, so she spoke gently, "Stand up and answer the question. Who are you, my wife?"

Ye Tao stood up properly, lowered her head slightly and replied: "Reporting to the Queen, I am the dowry of Madam Song from the Zhennan Marquis's Mansion."

Everyone suddenly realized and turned their eyes to Ye Tao, with curiosity written all over their faces.

The Queen also frowned and looked at Ye Tao and asked, "Tell me what's going on?"

Ye Tao answered respectfully, "Just now Princess Anlan invited my wife to enjoy the cool air and eat cakes in the pavilion over there. Later, I was called by Miss Xiu to help carry something. When I came back to the pavilion again, my wife had disappeared."

"Madam is suffering from depression. The doctor said that she must be with someone by her side. Today, she brought me here alone. I looked everywhere for her but couldn't find her. That's when I became panicked."

Everyone looked at Ye Tao and felt that she was sincere, but the noble ladies present had heard a lot about Liu Yueru's story, so they couldn't help but feel some sympathy for her.

After such an incident, the Queen said to Ye Tao in a gentle manner, "Don't worry, I'll ask someone to help look for him. Maybe he got lost somewhere."

Ye Tao knelt down in front of the queen with gratitude and kowtowed several times: "Thank you, Queen."

The queen raised her hand and asked people to help find Liu Yueru.

After a while.

The servants came back and shook their heads at the queen, saying, "Your Majesty, we have searched everywhere but have not found Madam Song."

Everyone's expressions also became strange.

The queen's majestic eyebrows furrowed even more, and she asked in a gentle voice, "Have you checked the pond, the rockery, and the side courtyard?"

"We've searched everywhere, but we can't find it." said the servant.

Suddenly he thought of something and immediately changed his words, "There is another abandoned yard that I haven't searched in yet."

The Queen's face changed slightly. With so many people watching, if she couldn't find Liu Yueru today, she was afraid that if something happened to her, she would be gossiped about.

After thinking it over again and again, the Queen's voice sounded again: "Go and look for it."

After receiving the Queen's order, the servant went to look for the courtyard.

Not long after.

The servant ran towards the crowd in panic, knelt in front of the Queen, and stammered for a long time without uttering a word.

Everyone's curiosity was aroused, and the queen frowned and asked, "What happened? Why are you so panicked?"

"Look, found it, in the room in the yard..." The servant's face became even redder as he spoke.

Then she continued, hesitatingly, "Slave, slave, I dare not!"

When the queen saw her like this, she was so anxious that she took her people directly to that courtyard.

A group of people followed behind him.

Ye Tao followed closely behind with trepidation.

Just like that, a group of people walked towards the yard in a mighty manner.

People from afar could hear a strange and charming voice coming from the courtyard.

The closer they got, the louder the enchanting sound became.

Some of the brides also blushed in an instant.

Everyone here has a husband, so they naturally know what is going on there.

However, no one expected that Liu Yueru would be so bold that she would secretly run to this side courtyard to exchange things with others during the palace banquet, doing such a shameful thing in broad daylight.

One of the noble ladies took the opportunity to glare at the pale-faced Ye Tao fiercely, with a tone of disdain and ridicule: "I didn't expect that Madam Song, who comes from a famous family, would do such a despicable thing at a palace banquet. It's really immoral!"

Ye Tao's legs softened, and she immediately knelt in front of everyone, shaking her head and explaining, "Our Madam would not do such a thing. The person in there is definitely not our Madam."

"Oh, the facts are right in front of us, and you, a lowly slave, are still trying to argue here." The lady sneered at Ye Tao.

The people in the room were unaware and continued to do their improper things.

But when the queen heard the unbearable cry, her face turned as black as the bottom of a pot and looked extremely ugly.

"Empress, Madam Song dared to do such a shameful thing at the palace banquet. This shows that she does not take you seriously. She must be severely punished."

"I usually see Madam Song being serious and well behaved, but I didn't expect she is such a person."

At this time, the Duke's wife, under the instigation of Ye Yimu, also spoke with a gloomy face: "She is like this, and she dares to bring up the fact that the prince favors his concubine and kills his wife. No one can say for sure whether this was caused by her."

"It's immoral and a disgrace to our family." The Duchess's wife became angrier and angrier as she spoke.

"Someone, go and drag these two people out for me!" The Queen's voice sounded in a dignified manner.

The servants swarmed forward.

now.

Liu Yueru looked at the Duke's wife with a strange expression and said, "I don't have much contact with the Duke's wife on weekdays. Why are you slandering me and the Liu family today?"

Everyone followed the sound.

At this time, Liu Yue appeared in front of everyone wearing a wet dress.

Ye Taohong looked in the direction of Liu Yueru, and her heart finally settled down.

Liu Yueru looked at everyone in confusion, then slowly walked up to the Queen, bowed slightly, and performed a standard court salute.

The Queen looked at Liu Yueru with a dazed look on her face. "You, that's not you in there, who is that?"

As the servants barged in, the woman in the room screamed in fear: "Ah!"

Everyone took a step forward curiously, and when they saw who was in the room, their faces changed.
