Prime Minister Lin warned: "The eldest prince is destined to have no chance of that position. If you want to live a few more days, it's best not to get involved."

"father in law……"

Liu Lanqi had a thousand words to say in his heart, but in the end, under the gaze of Prime Minister Lin, he was unable to utter a word.

At the same time, after calming down, he suddenly thought of something and no longer had the initial enthusiasm for Gu Jinyun.

The little incident caused by Liu Lanqi's sudden standing up soon passed, and the palace banquet began again.

Compared to the intrigues among the male guests, the female guests were much calmer. Especially since it was Liu Tianshu's first time attending a palace banquet in her life, she would not force herself to stand out.

Throughout the entire banquet, apart from speaking a few words to her mother, she just ate and watched the performance without saying a single extra word.

After three rounds of wine and five dishes, many people began to leave the table and find excuses to go out for a walk.

Liu Tianshu didn't want to cause trouble, but she didn't expect a maid to come and report that someone outside wanted to see her.

The palace was different from other places. Liu Tianshu didn't want to leave with the little palace maid at all. However, the other party kept looking at her, as if she would stay here if she didn't leave.

Helpless, Liu Tianshu could only leave with the little palace maid.

The little palace maid brought Liu Tianshu to a corner of the garden, looked around, and after making sure that there was no one there, she meowed twice.

Soon a young eunuch came over and bowed respectfully.

With the appearance of the little eunuch, Liu Tianshu recognized him as the one who followed the empress dowager and quickly felt relieved.

"Eunuch, did the Queen Mother send a message?"

"Yes!"

The young eunuch came to Liu Tianshu's side and said respectfully, "The Queen Mother asked me to pass a message to the Marquis. If he has been wronged, the Queen Mother will definitely make a decision for him. Please be patient and wait."

"Yes!" The Queen Mother's words were quite verbal, and Liu Tianshu was extremely respectful. However, she couldn't understand why she had to pass on such a simple few words to Gu Jinyun, couldn't she just have someone else pass it on?

Liu Tianshu really couldn't figure out the real purpose of the Queen Mother's doing this, and she was still thinking about it on the way back.

"Oh...I'm sorry...I didn't mean to..."

Liu Tianshu was distracted and didn't come to her senses until she bumped into someone and that person began to apologize.

The palace is full of nobles. Even though she is the eldest prince's consort now, she dare not offend those people in the palace easily.

The palace banquet was held at night. Even though there were lanterns hanging in the palace, Liu Tianshu still couldn't see clearly what the other person looked like, but she could tell that it was a young girl.

"It's ok."

After Liu Tianshu finished speaking, she turned around and was about to leave when someone hit her on the back of her head and she lost consciousness.

When Liu Tianshu woke up again, she found herself lying on a big soft bed, covered with a brocade quilt and a pink bed curtain.

The room was warm and there was no feeling of being cold in winter at all.

After looking around the unfamiliar room, Liu Tianshu lifted the quilt and found that she was already wearing a light blue uniform.

He felt his body carefully and found nothing wrong except for the dull pain in the back of his head. He lifted the bed curtain and saw a pair of embroidered shoes of the same color inlaid with large oriental pearls on the floor.

After putting on her shoes, Liu Tianshu looked around the room and smelled the faint scent of sandalwood. She felt like she was in a fairyland.

"Where is this? Is there anyone there?"

After walking around the room and not seeing anyone, Liu Tianshu opened the door and looked at the courtyard outside which was covered with snow. It was also empty. She stopped at the door and looked at everything around her.

"Miss, you are awake."

Mingyi, Tong'er and Hong'er came out from the next room, saw her, and bowed respectfully.

When she saw the familiar person, Liu Tianshu slowly let go of the worry in her heart.

"No need to be polite. Where is this?"

"This is the master's yard."

"Your master?"

Liu Tianshu looked around suspiciously.

"Why am I here suddenly?"

Hong Er smiled and said, "Miss, the master said that New Year's Eve is a good day. You have fallen into the ice cave in the palace's lotus pond and disappeared. From now on, you are Miss Sheng."

"Miss Sheng?"

Liu Tianshu looked around.

"I still have a lot of things to do. I can't be Miss Sheng yet."

Hong Er reminded her, "Miss, today is already the third day of the New Year. Your body has been found and buried."

"what?"

I didn't expect that I had been unconscious for so long. Now that her body has been buried, there is no way for me to go back.

"Ming Yi, have you brought out all the things I left at the Marquis' Mansion?"
