Xie Yuantang turned around, his big eyes filled with fear and anxiety.

The pale little face was covered with tear marks, the little hands were stained with blood, and the thin shoulders kept shaking.

It's obvious that he has been bullied and is extremely frightened.

"Father~Uncle..."

At the moment of the choking sound, her long eyelashes blinked, and the little pearls in her eye sockets suddenly fell down in large pieces.

It looks so pitiful!

Situ Qing's heart as an old father melted instantly!

"Don't cry, don't cry. Father will take care of it for you!"

"Tell me first if you are hurt? Did you get bumped or banged?"

"Imperial Physician, where is the Imperial Physician?"

Queen Jiang: “…”

She could no longer bear it and said, "Your Majesty, those lying on the ground are my maids. It was clearly Xie Yuantang who hurt them!"

How come the emperor suddenly became a tyrant when even a blind man could see it?

Without waiting for Situ Qing to speak, Yan Guanqing said lightly, "Your Majesty, are you saying that six or seven strong and sturdy old maids in this room were knocked down by a nine-year-old child like Yuan Tang?"

Queen Jiang's face froze, and she snorted coldly, "Seeing is believing. Doesn't the Grand Master always talk about evidence? My maid is injured, but Xie Yuantang is fine. This is the evidence."

"Okay, don't say anything anymore."

Situ Qing interrupted them impatiently, and when he looked at Xie Yuantang, he asked softly, "Yuantang, tell me, what's going on?"

"they……"

Xie Yuantang shuddered, and with trembling hands, he took out an embroidery needle from behind his back, and said in a low and choked voice: "They... pricked me with a needle..."

Aunt Gui and others who were wailing nearby: "..."

???

!!!

No, where did you get the needle?

When Queen Jiang saw Xie Yuantang take out the embroidery needle, she was stunned and looked at Nanny Gui inconspicuously.

Queen Jiang’s eyes: Didn’t you say that there won’t be acupuncture today?

Nanny Gui’s look: I am useless!

Queen Jiang: What's the matter with the needle?

Aunt Gui: I don’t know!

The two of them exchanged glances for a moment, and both thought of a possibility: Could it be that Xie Yuantang picked it up yesterday?

No matter what they did, they never expected that Xie Yuantang would have asked Bai Fu to prepare the "murder weapon" in her schoolbag so early!

Seeing the embroidery needle shining with cold light, Situ Qing's face suddenly turned cold: "Queen! Is this what you call discipline?"

"I really don't know!"

Queen Jiang gritted her teeth and refused to admit it: "How can Your Majesty be sure that the embroidery needle must have come from my palace?"

"It's not from your Huikun Palace. Could it be that Xie Yuantang brought it in his schoolbag?"

"She's only nine years old. What is she doing with a needle? Embroidery?"

Queen Jiang was speechless.

Yan Guanqing saw the soybeans with his sharp eyes, his cold eyes moved slightly, and he said: "In ancient times, people could create soldiers by throwing beans. I didn't expect that the Queen would have the same thing here."

Situ Qing frowned and asked Xie Yuantang: "What's the matter with soybeans? Yuantang, tell me from the beginning."

Xie Yuantang sniffed and said timidly, "Madam Gui made me walk with a flower bowl on my head, and then they tripped me and scattered soybeans on the ground..."

"I bumped into them by accident and the bowl broke, so they took off my clothes and stabbed me with needles..."

"You said you were ordered to discipline me. Even if you kill me, Father won't say anything."

She was naturally eloquent, and nine and a half sentences in her sentence were true, with only half being a lie, and no one would ever notice.

Situ Qing and Yan Guanqing had already looked gloomy. Yan Guanqing pursed his lips, walked forward to help her up, and looked at her carefully: "Are you injured?"

Xie Yuantang nodded: "My body hurts..."

Situ Qing shouted coldly: "Queen, I gave Yuan Tang to you because I trusted you. Is this how you treat someone you really trust?"

Queen Jiang quickly knelt down and said, "Your Majesty is wise, I am innocent."

Nanny Gui and the others quickly got up and knelt down to protest: "Your Majesty, Xie Yuantang is talking nonsense, it's not true..."

"What's that like?"

Yan Guanqing interrupted Aunt Gui and asked coldly, "You didn't sprinkle the soybeans? Didn't you prepare the flower bowl? Or did you not take off her clothes?"

Aunt Gui: "..."

However, although……

She was really wronged!

Situ Qing: "Come here, shut up these old slaves and take them all away! I don't want to see them again!"

"Yes."

Queen Jiang turned pale and said anxiously, "Your Majesty..."

"The Queen should think carefully before speaking."

Situ Qing lowered his head and glanced at Queen Jiang who was kneeling on the ground, his eyes were deep and terrifying.

Queen Jiang gritted her teeth and watched Nanny Gui and others being dragged out, but she dared not say a word of pleading.

Situ Qing snorted coldly and ordered: "The queen has been in poor health recently, so she should rest well in Huikun Palace. All matters in the harem will be temporarily handed over to Concubine Yu."

Queen Jiang looked up in shock.

He was... restricting her from walking and taking away her rights?

If she fails to be a good queen, then her son's position as crown prince...

Thinking of this, Queen Jiang suddenly looked at Yan Guanqing.

Only at this moment did she clearly realize that it was not that Yan Guanqing had to rely on them, but that she and her son could not do without the support of the Yan family.

She tried to control Yan Guanqing by controlling Situ Yan and Xie Yuantang, but seemed to have forgotten.

The Yan family has always been proud and would rather die in glory than live in disgrace.

Yan Yilan is! Yan Guanqing is too!

Queen Jiang opened her mouth, but at the last moment of reasoning, she did not plead for herself anymore, but compromised and said, "Your concubine... obeys your order."

She looked at Yan Guanqing, with regret and pleading in her eyes: "My words and actions have nothing to do with the Crown Prince, please... teach the Crown Prince well."

Yan Guan glanced at her coolly and said calmly, "I will do my duty as a minister."

Queen Jiang stood up and glanced at the small figure standing next to Yan Guanqing before leaving.

Who could have thought that Jiang Suirui, who had been the queen for so many years, was put under house arrest for the first time, and it was at the hands of a nine-year-old girl!

Xie Yuantang...

Jiang Suirui looked at Xie Yuantang with a bitter smile on her face.

Perhaps, she was wrong to get married for good fortune in the first place.

If she hadn't asked Xie Zhaoqing to find an unfavored legitimate daughter to bring good luck, would there have been no accidents today?

Jiang Suirui walked back to the main hall of Huikun Palace, and the maid guarding outside immediately closed the door.

Xie Yuantang looked at the palace door slowly closing and blinked, but he did not feel the slightest bit of guilt.

Jiang Suirui came here today with the intention of killing her!

Even if she was lucky enough to survive, she could still be disabled or destroyed. She was just fighting back to protect herself.

Besides, Jiang Suirui already had a share of the original owner's life debt! This is not enough!

"Your Majesty, shall I take Yuantang back first?" Yan Guanqing said.

Situ Qing nodded, and said tiredly: "Let the imperial physician take a look first, then change clothes before leaving the palace."

"Yes."

After seeing the imperial physician and confirming that she was not seriously injured and changing her clothes, Yan Guanqing took her out of the palace.

Xie Yuantang followed him obediently, lowering his head and pretending to be a good boy.

Only after they left the palace did Yan Guanqing stop and glanced down at her, smiling and saying, "Are you still crying?"

Xie Yuantang was startled, and then he saw a slender finger holding a clean handkerchief handed to him.

"No one is watching, stop crying."

Xie Yuantang: “…”

She looked up in surprise, her big eyes shining brightly: "Uncle, you knew it a long time ago?"

"what do you know?"

Yan Guanqing glanced at her: "Do you know you are pretending?"

Xie Yuantang touched his nose awkwardly, feeling a little guilty, and whispered, "I thought I was a good actor."

"Humph."

Yan Guanqing glared at her unhappily: "You dare to act in front of the emperor? You are really not afraid of death!"

Xie Yuantang stuck out his tongue playfully: "My uncle is here, and I didn't lie. They are just bullying me!"

It's just that she bullied me back.

After getting on the carriage, we went to the prince's palace first.

Seeing the little man who completely took off his disguise after getting on the car and yawned while lying there, Yan Guanqing shook his head speechlessly and asked, "Now that the emperor has allowed you to rest for two days before going to the academy, what are you going to do?"

He always felt that this little rascal in front of him was willing to cooperate with the Queen in making such a fuss just for the sake of these two days of vacation.

Xie Yuantang's eyes lit up, his dimples were faintly visible as he smiled, and he said crisply, "Go find my mother!"
