"Nothing... nothing."

"Is that where you feel uncomfortable?"

"nor"

"That you today?"

"Woman points at clothes on man"

"Oh...you're talking about this. I have something to deal with later and need to go to the palace."

It was just as I guessed.

"Well, let's go in then."

Ouyang Miaoling did not ask anything. Under the guidance of Guying, the two came to a dark and damp dungeon.

Tied to a wooden stake in the dungeon was a man dressed like a soldier in a military camp.

The palace guard who was interrogating the case saw his master coming in and hurried forward to salute.

"I greet my master,"

"Well, get up"

"Did he confess?"

"My Lord, this kid will not confess anything except what he confessed before."

"Okay, keep fighting?"

"Wait a minute"

Ouyang Miaoling spoke out to stop him.

She wanted to hear something truly useful, so in order to prevent the man from confessing under torture, she decided to give him the truth pill.

So he took out a bottle from his sleeve pocket and threw it to Gu Ying.

"Give him the pills inside,"

Gu Ying took the bottle and looked at Nangong Mingxuan beside him. Seeing that there was no expression on Nangong Mingxuan's face, he knew that his master had tacitly agreed.

He then walked over, pinched the man's chin with his hand, forced him to open his mouth, and poured the medicine in the bottle into his mouth.

Then he raised his hand and saw the man's Adam's apple roll. He made sure that the man had swallowed the medicine before reporting to Ouyang Miaoling.

"The princess has already swallowed the medicine."

"Okay, wait a moment."

There was no sound in the dungeon at this time, and several people were quietly waiting for the effect of the drug to take effect.

After a moment, the man's eyes became dull and his expression was confused. Ouyang Miaoling knew that the medicine had taken effect, so she began to question him.

"Who told you to steal my child five years ago?"

"Yes..." The man tried to resist the effect of the medicine in his body, struggled for a while, and finally compromised.

"It was the current Queen Mother. She is my cousin, the nanny beside the Queen Mother. She asked me to turn a blind eye and let an assassin into the palace when I was on duty."

"How much involvement did you have in that?"

"I didn't participate. I just did my duty and let that person in. I don't know anything else."

"Did the Prince Regent's Palace participate in that matter?"

Ouyang Miaoling thought about it and asked the question that had been lingering in her mind for a long time.

"No, absolutely not involved,"

Hearing this was the outcome, Ouyang Miaoling's long-standing persistence completely collapsed at this moment. She didn't know how to face the man in front of her who was misunderstood and hurt by her.

The woman couldn't accept this fact and turned and ran away.

Nangong Mingxuan hurriedly chased after him.

"Ling'er, what's wrong with you? Wait a minute."

Ouyang Miaoling seemed not to hear the man's call from behind. She ran to Fengqiyuan and locked herself in the room. No matter how the man knocked on the door, the person in the room refused to open it.

"Ling'er, since you don't want to see me, I will go to the palace first. When you calm down and want to see me, I will come to see you. I will never let go of the mastermind who hurt Yi'er."

When Ouyang Miaoling heard that the man was going to the palace to find the current empress dowager, she temporarily calmed down her anxiety and opened the door to come out.

"Wait a minute, then."

The man was about to leave when he heard a voice behind him. He stopped and turned to look at the woman.

"Since they planned to take advantage of your backyard five years ago, if you confront them face to face now, they may not admit it."

"Besides, even if she admits it, what can you do to her?"

"She is the current queen mother."

"Don't worry, Ling'er. Since she dares to plot against you and the child, I will not let her off easily."

The man had a gloomy face and a cold aura emanating from his body. He was determined to turn against the current empress dowager.

"It's better to think about this matter carefully and don't be impulsive."

Ouyang Miaoling tried to persuade the man to calm down.

The man closed his eyes and thought for a moment. When he opened his eyes, the murderous aura in his eyes had dissipated.

In a gentle tone, he said, "Does Ling'er have any plans?"

"I was going to settle accounts with that old witch anyway, but now there's just one more thing to deal with."

"When the time comes, we will settle all the old and new sorrows together"

"Ling'er, no matter what plans you have, I will fully support you. If you need me, just speak up."

"One more thing. This king will not stop you from taking revenge in your own way, but I will guarantee your personal safety before implementing your plan."

"Okay..I promise you."

"That Ling'er is not angry with me anymore?"

Ouyang Miaoling turned her head and stopped looking at the man. She didn't know how she should face the man now.

Even if he was not the one who ordered what happened back then, when lives were at stake, he chose his white moonlight and disregarded his own life and the life of his child. As far as this matter is concerned, she will never forgive him.

"Even if you didn't instigate that incident, you did give up me and the child when your life was at stake and chose your Miss Yaer. This is a fact, right?"

"You want me to forgive you, but I can't get over it in my heart, and I can't forgive you on behalf of my child, so Your Majesty, please don't think about asking us to forgive you. It's impossible."

After saying this, the woman left the spot and went straight into the house and closed the door.

After hearing what the woman said, the man stood there in a daze for a long time, staring at the door in a daze.

Yes, my decision back then was so wrong. How could I possibly try to get others to forgive me easily now?

It seems that I need to make more efforts to atone my sins before that woman can forgive me.

After a long while, the man turned around and said to the skeleton beside him: "Go into the palace."

Gu Ying beside him also felt sorry for his master, but he was also fully aware of what happened that year. It would be very difficult to get the princess to forgive his master easily. Thinking about the difficulties of his master, it seemed that he could not help much.

"Go, Bone Shadow. What are you thinking about?"

Nangong Mingxuan reminded Gu Ying, and Gu Ying came back to his senses and quickly trotted to catch up with his master.

"Master, doesn't the princess have a plan? Why are we still going to the palace?"

"I have to do something, right? They are trying to kill my son, but I am still indifferent. Then I should stop being the regent."

"Yes, Master is right."

The two of them left the house quickly. The carriage was already waiting at the door.

The man still had an icy face as he got on the carriage and headed towards the palace.

Ouyang Miaoling, who was hiding in a room in the palace, heard the footsteps outside the door fading away and knew that the man had left.

She opened the door and walked out of the house, putting aside the unpleasantness that had just occurred with the man.

He took Siyu and Sifan out of the palace and headed towards the clinic.
