After becoming a princess, she fell in love with the emperor of the enemy country

Lian Xiang was furious and shouted, "How dare you!"

Hearing the familiar voice, Zhang Ruoning regained his senses, then his body stiffened and he quickly retracted his hand.

Lianxiang sneered, not intending to let her go. "Come here, Zhang Ruoning, the daughter of the Minister of Revenue, has repeatedly caused trouble in Fengyi Palace, disrespected the Queen, and challenged the Emperor's authority. Take her away and give her 20 lashes of the cane, and throw her out of the palace."

What? Twenty strokes of the cane. Zhang Ruoning was shaking like a sieve. Would she still be able to survive after twenty strokes of the cane? Even if she didn't die, she would be disabled.

Zhang Ruoning didn't care about her dignity and knelt on the ground to beg, "Your Majesty, I know I am wrong. Please forgive me."

She also asked the Xiao sisters who were standing closest to her to plead for mercy, "Miss Xiao, please plead for me, save me, save me!"

Finally, Xiao Ningyu couldn't bear it anymore and begged Lianxiang for mercy. In the end, he only hit her ten times and threw her out.

Although Zhang Ruoning's injuries were not serious, this incident was a loss of face for her. For a long time afterwards, Zhang Ruoning did not dare to go out.

Qi Wuyou's choice of a study partner was decided, but little Zhezi was not happy at all.

With Lianxiang's coercion in front and His Majesty's threat behind, Xiao Zhezi is now in a dilemma as he looks at the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo who has come to visit him again.

Fortunately, Mei Xue came back from the Imperial Hospital and took the initiative to let the favor in.

When they arrived at the outer hall, Mei Xue ordered someone to serve tea, "Madam, wait a moment. I will go and see if the queen is awake."

"Okay, go ahead." It's so hard to get in, are you still afraid of not being able to see the queen? Madam Lu can wait.

Mei Xue bowed and went to the inner hall.

Qi Wuyou has woken up, and Lianxiang is helping him wash up.

"Your Majesty, the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo is here with two generals' wives."

Qi Wuyou had just woken up and his mind was still a little dazed. It took him a long time to realize who the visitor was.

"Why are they here?" Qi Wuyou still felt a little scared when he thought about what happened that day.

Lianxiang frowned. "Didn't I ask Xiao Zhezi to watch the door? How did they let them in?"

Mei Xue said in embarrassment, "He has been stopped several times, and His Majesty has also put pressure on Xiao Zhezi. You, please don't make it difficult for him."

Lian Xiang curled her lips when she heard this, "I know."

Qi Wuyou scratched his head, "They were here before?"

"Here it comes!" Lianxiang was combing Qi Wuyou's hair and replied nonchalantly, "He came when you were taking a nap on the day you were injured."

After saying that, Lianxiang added, "This mother and daughter are really something. After they chased away the younger one, the older one came early the next morning. You were sleeping soundly at that time. Why didn't they chase her away?"

Qi Wuyou rubbed her hands and saw that Lianxiang had finally combed her hair. She put on an outer robe and let Lianxiang carry her to the wheelchair.

"Let's go, now that you've been invited in, don't keep you waiting too long," Qi Wuyou touched his hungry stomach and thought pitifully, don't cry, I'll feed you later.

Outside, Zhenguo Gongmo waited for a cup of tea, and then he saw the palace maid who had gone in earlier pushing Qi Wuyou out.

“This…” Lady Zhenguogong was hesitant to speak when she saw this. She didn’t expect that he would be sitting in a wheelchair. Did he have a broken bone?

Thinking of this, the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo felt even more guilty.

Qi Wuyou saw the guilt in Madam Lu's eyes and smiled comfortingly, "Madam, don't worry, it's just a sprain, no bones are broken."

In fact, the swelling had almost gone down in the past two days and the pain was not as severe, but Doctor Zhang still asked her to sit in a wheelchair to avoid any sequelae.

The wife of the Duke of Zhenguo forced a smile, "It was a misunderstanding that day. My husband was anxious and hurt your body. I beg you to forgive me."

As she was about to kneel down, Qi Wuyou was so scared that she quickly asked someone to help her sit up, "Madam, it's serious, it's just a minor injury, don't worry about it."

After hearing Qi Wuyou say this, Lady Zhenguogong finally felt relieved.

The two exchanged a few more pleasantries, and in the end, Madam Lu did not ask about the bracelet and just said goodbye and left.

Seeing that everyone had finally left, Qi Wuyou couldn't wait to have the meal served.

Seeing a familiar figure among the people serving the dishes, Qi Wuyou called her.

Ge Qiu turned around and bowed, "My Lady."

Qi Wuyou asked, "Does anyone in your family marry Minister Zhang of the Ministry of Revenue as a concubine?"

Ge Qiu was bewildered when he heard this, "Which Minister Zhang?"

Qi Wuyou said, "It's Zhang from the Ministry of Revenue..."

At this point, Qi Wuyou remembered that he still didn't know his name.

"Zhang Ji." Lianxiang took over the conversation.

Qi Wuyou nodded vigorously upon hearing this, "Yes, Zhang Ji."

When Ge Qiu heard the name, a trace of resentment flashed in his eyes, which was keenly caught by Qi Wuyou.

But her expression quickly returned to normal, and she said calmly, "I don't know this Mr. Zhang."

Qi Wuyou frowned and wanted to ask more questions, but he saw Ge Qiu bowed and left.

"There's a problem," Qi Wuyou said after taking a bite of the bun.

Lianxiang didn't respond, but rolled up Qi Wuyou's sleeves and said, "Don't talk while eating or sleeping. Thinking while eating will make you stupid."

Qi Wuyou took another bite of the bun and made a "tsk" sound, not caring at all, "Do you think I'm a three-year-old kid? And I'm a fool..."

Before she could finish her words, Qi Wuyou was choked. Lianxiang calmed her down and gloated over her misfortune, "Madam, what did you just say? The slap was so loud that I didn't hear it."

Qi Wuyou: “…”

The people Lianxiang sent to investigate the Ge family came back quickly.

After sending Ge Qiu to the palace five years ago, the Ge family moved away. They encountered bandits on the way and no one survived.

Qi Wuyou frowned after hearing this, "How strange, if you are moving, why send your little daughter to the palace?"

Lian Xiang nodded and agreed, "And the bandits are weird too."

Qi Wuyou looked at him inquiringly, and Lianxiang explained, "There used to be no bandits on the road where the Ge family was murdered."

Qi Wuyou asked doubtfully, "Maybe he just went there recently?"

Lianxiang shook her head and asked everyone to leave. She came close to Qi Wuyou and whispered, "The hill not far away is where His Majesty trains his secret guards. They have to sweep it every once in a while. Not to mention bandits, even a bird flying by has to be shot down."

Qi Wuyou's eyes widened when he heard this, "No, why did you tell me such a big thing?"

Lianxiang smiled and said, "Even if your servant doesn't tell me, your Majesty will confess one day."

Qi Wuyou wanted to say more, but Lianxiang continued, "That's why the bandit thing is so strange."

"Besides this, there is one more thing," Lianxiang continued without waiting for Qi Wuyou to react.

Qi Wuyou didn't interrupt and waited for Lianxiang to continue.

"The person who found the body was from the Dark Guard Battalion, Ye Erliu, whom the Queen had seen."

"I asked Ershiliu, and he said that the property of the Ge family was not lost, and he told Ye Yi about it. Ye Yi also regarded it as revenge, so he arranged for someone to send the body to the government."

"Ye Yi?" Qi Wuyou muttered to herself. Xuan Yelan had never mentioned it on her own initiative. She had long guessed that Yi Er San's identity was kept secret. Now it seems that the secret guards knew Yi Er San's identity.
