I'll tell you the secret and let's laugh together!

"My Lady, this is what happened. It was extremely thrilling. Fortunately, we discovered it by accident, otherwise these bad guys would have gotten away!"

The queen was in mixed feelings. Whether it was an ordinary family or a family of status, everyone valued having many children and a happy life. But for some less wealthy families, one more mouth to feed meant one more burden.

Therefore, most families would choose to marry off their daughters early, or sell their children into slavery to supplement the family income.

There are also some families who found their children missing, but they have no power and can only go to the government to inquire again and again, and in the end, nothing can be done...

"You did a great job. Thanks to you, otherwise they would have taken advantage of the situation and escaped. His Majesty will take care of the rest. Let's just wait and see the result."

"I just got a batch of fabrics. The colors are very beautiful. They are perfect for pretty girls like you. Let's go and measure the sizes."

The little girl is in the growth stage, so she needs to be measured every once in a while, otherwise she might worry that the clothes will not fit her.

Several palace maids respectfully measured her body. Ning Zhiyi's eyes were on one of the palace maids. The maid was pretty and smart, and she would make a few witty remarks from time to time to make the queen laugh.

She noticed Ning Zhiyi's gaze and quickly said a few flattering words, but Ning Zhiyi's reaction was very indifferent and he didn't respond to her at all.

The maid was worried and lowered her head, inadvertently showing a lost expression to the queen. The queen paused in drinking tea and looked at the maid meaningfully.

Could it be that there is more than one thief?

[Tong'er, is it true? Was it this palace maid who instigated Wan He to rebel? ]

The queen remained expressionless but was thinking in her heart, it was very likely that Wan He would not betray her for no reason as she had been with her for so many years. If it was Wan Lian who instigated the rebellion, what method did she use?

System: [Yes, this palace maid had a lover. In order to seduce Wan He, she asked her lover to seduce Wan He. The lover was tall and mighty, and he quickly captured Wan He's heart.]

[Wan Lian approached Wan He as her lover's sister, but Wan He, that fool, treated Wan Lian as a family member! ]

Ning Zhiyi was puzzled. It was because of love. People seemed to often do irrational things because of love. Is love really that important?

She didn't understand, and didn't continue thinking about it. Instead, she thought of Wanhe. The Empress said that she had found out that Wanhe was involved with someone in the Imperial Concubine's palace, so she transferred her to be a maid to clean the house and was not allowed to serve nearby.

[Tong'er, how do you think I should tell the Queen about Wan Lian? ]

The system said indifferently: [It doesn't matter. In the eyes of some bad guys, you are a big bad guy anyway, so just stick to your character setting and confront her head-on.]

Ning Zhiyi nodded, thinking that what the system said made sense. She had been living too comfortably during this period of time and had even forgotten about her own personality.

When Wan Lian moved, Ning Zhiyi deliberately stretched out his foot and tripped her.

"what!"

Wan Lian screamed and fell to the ground with a thud. She turned to look at Ning Zhiyi who was smiling evilly. She looked timid, but her eyes looked at Ning Zhiyi several times, and what she wanted to express was very obvious.

The maid beside the queen waved her hand and had Wan Lian dragged away.

"Zhiyi, but she didn't serve you well and hurt you?"

"My lady, I just don't like her. I think she is just like Wan He. Can you please not let her serve you in the future?"

The queen smiled indulgently, "Okay, transfer the person to do the cleaning."

"Old slave, I obey."

The other palace maids were silent, once again realizing Ning Zhiyi's position in the Queen's heart.

After measuring the size, the queen asked everyone else to leave and played chess with Ning Zhiyi. The fetus in the queen's belly was almost three months old, and she decided to announce the matter to the public when it was three months old.

"Your Majesty will definitely get what she wishes and give birth to a little princess."

The queen touched her belly and smiled, "It would be great if it could come true. I hope the child will be as cute as you."

"Hehe, my lady, I am too naughty. My elder brother often sighs at me. I guess my elder brother must be very sad to have such a naughty sister like me."

This made the queen laugh again. After playing a few games of chess with her, she suddenly thought of something and told her worriedly, "Zhiyi, stay out of the house less during this period of time. Be careful with the imperial concubine. I'm afraid she will do something desperate."

The Sixth Prince told the Queen and the Crown Prince what happened in the hunting ground and also told them his own guesses. If it weren't for Ning Zhiyi, he would have broken his leg in the hunting ground.

If the Queen treated Ning Zhiyi as her own daughter before, she now treats her completely as her own daughter. The Imperial Concubine has been going crazy because of the Third Prince's broken leg, and she is afraid that Ning Zhiyi will be affected.

"Your Majesty, I understand. The Imperial Concubine is probably on the verge of collapse. I will not provoke her at this time."

"Be good."

......

Ning Zhiyi was relatively obedient and stayed at home for the next few days without going out. However, Ning Yuanze was very busy and would be away for the whole day, often returning home in the middle of the night.

After Hu Yantan had his wounds bandaged in the clinic, he returned to the yard and found that the people he brought with him had been killed, and even the things he brought were all missing.

After going crazy for a while, he ordered someone to send a message to gather everyone together to avoid any more trouble. They could not wait any longer and had to go to the palace to pay homage immediately.

Then came some news that shocked him even more. It turned out that the other six teams that had been delayed in arriving were not delayed on the road, but had completely lost their trace!

Judging from the situation in the courtyards in the capital, they were most likely robbed by bandits, and both they and their goods were gone!

"Count all the goods and silver, and then deliver the documents to the Emperor of Dali. We must enter the palace as soon as possible."

"Yes!" Haldon took the order and drafted the document.

A few days later.

Huyan Tan could not keep calm. Before he even met the Emperor of Dali, more than half of their goods and silver had been lost, leaving only a small number of items.

The letter to Dali fell into oblivion, and there was no news at all.

"Submit it again until they agree!"

Three days later they finally received the notice allowing them to enter the palace, but it was a verbal order.

Huyan Tan, who was almost going crazy with anxiety, didn't care about anything else and decided to go to the palace the next day. He never imagined what kind of blow would be waiting for him this time.
