Everyone looked at the sound.

Then he saw a woman wearing a phoenix robe and a golden hairpin on her head calling out to Shang Jiu, who was on the verge of a fight with Su Rou and Shen Yao at any second.

Everyone knelt down and saluted.

"May the Queen be blessed with good fortune and good fortune."

Seeing this, Su Rou and Shen Yao also knelt down.

Shang Jiu's arrogance subsided, and he became as obedient as a rabbit.

"Everyone, get up! Today is the autumn hunt, so it's inappropriate to quarrel. His Majesty hasn't arrived yet, and you are already causing trouble. You are truly bold."

Hearing this, Shang Jiu buried his head even lower.

After all, he was the one who started the trouble.

"Your Majesty, I...I dare not do it anymore."

The queen waved her hand, looking troubled, and told Shang Jiu to leave.

Su Rou and Shen Yao were just about to leave and not attract attention here anymore, but they were stopped by the Queen.

"Shu Rou, stay here and come and talk to me."

Su Rou was stunned and looked at Shen Yao with a panic expression.

Shen Yao tightened his grip on her hand and shook his head gently twice, indicating that everything was fine and telling her not to worry too much.

Shen Yao said, "Your Majesty, Su Rou just ignored Shang Jiu. Please don't blame her."

The Queen laughed and said, "I have no interest in your petty quarrels. I am just a little interested in her, that's all. I won't eat her, so why are you so nervous?"

A layer of fine sweat was visibly forming on Shen Yao's forehead. Today, he just wanted to take Su Rou out for a walk and didn't want to cause trouble or attract attention.

His Majesty hasn't come yet. If he comes and sees this scene, I'm afraid it will be difficult for him and Su Rou to let go...

"Mother..." Shen Yao was about to say something but was interrupted by Su Rou.

"My lady, I am extremely pleased."

Before she went to the queen, she lowered her eyes to glance at Shen Yao and told him not to worry.

The queen has a noble face and seems to be someone who is not easy to talk to...

The queen narrowed her eyes and found that many court officials and their families were still there.

"Go away."

"We will take our leave." A large group of people bowed to the queen.

Then they all slowly retreated.

Only Shen Yao was left standing there.

The Queen said, "Master Shen can't even listen to my orders?"

Su Rou said to Shen Yao, "Go around here first and catch a rabbit for me."

The worry in Shen Yao's eyes was not fake at all.

After Shen Yao left, the Queen slowly spoke, "I heard that your marriage with the Shen family has been planned recently."

Su Rou lowered her eyes, "Yes, Madam."

"Although you are Su Wan's daughter, His Majesty has turned a blind eye to your marriage with Shen Yao. This is already a gesture of favor for your father's sake."

Su Rou replied, "I know."

Her answer was emotionless and as flat as stagnant water.

"I have a niece who was personally conferred the title of Princess Changle by the late emperor. She met Lord Shen in the palace a few days ago and fell in love with him at first sight. I have always loved her and have already asked His Majesty to grant them marriage. His Majesty's decree should be passed on to the Shen Mansion today." The palace maid brought a cup of tea. The queen took it and took a sip from the cup.

"Since ancient times, there has been no reason for the elder to enter the palace later than the younger. For your wedding with Master Shen, I will ask the Imperial Astronomical Observatory to calculate another auspicious date for you."

Su Rou's pupils trembled slightly.

The Queen said this on purpose to embarrass her.

No one who is older enters the house later than the younger one...

What else is considered a good day...

Isn't this a mockery of her?

What would Su Rou do if it was true?

Would she kill the queen right now, or would she find another way?

Su Rou thought about it and realized that if she took action now, it would definitely bring fatal disaster to Su Wan and the Su family.

Su Rou took a long time to speak, "Your Majesty... if you have agreed on a marriage between Princess Changle and Shen Yao, please let me know so I can prepare in advance."

She tried her best to suppress the resentment in her heart.

Seeing the disdain in the queen's eyes when she looked at her, the anger in her heart was already burning.

The Queen sneered and put down the teacup in her hand. "You are quite a clever man. Although Lord Shen has taken refuge in our Southern Kingdom, he is now an official in our court. As for you and your father, since you are unwilling to take refuge, you are thorns in His Majesty's eyes. It is best to just obey His Majesty's arrangements..."

Su Rou replied coldly, "Of course."

She now suddenly understood why "Su Rou" was so weak.

When she fought with "Su Rou", "Su Rou"'s abilities were so weak that they could be easily defeated. Da Mo trained her well in all aspects, but in order to make her more like "Su Rou", he made her retract her original abilities.

Only the part about "Su Rou" was revealed...

The queen is here, and there are many guards around her. It is no problem for her to fight so many of them alone, but if she does, the Su family will not be able to stay here any longer.

Why is "Su Rou" so weak?

It's because I'm spoiled too much by these people.

It's just a pity that the task the master gave her today was not to get rid of the queen...

Her eyes darkened, and when she went to find Shen Yao, Shen Yao had already caught a rabbit.

Su Rou asked, "After all this time, you only caught this one rabbit?"

Shen Yao said, "You only wanted a rabbit, and you searched for a long time before you found this one."

She was stunned. "I didn't want the others, so you let them all go?"

Shen Yao smiled and said, "Yes, beating him is useless."

Su Rou thought to herself: Would it be useful to catch a rabbit then?

Shen Yao stuffed the rabbit into her hands. The rabbit was very fat and must have been raised in the palace for a few days before being brought in.

Su Rou said, "It has no injuries. How did you catch it?"

This snow-white little thing in my arms is furry and very cute.

Shen Yao said, "You wanted to use it for fun, so I didn't kill it."

Su Rou said, "I wanted to eat rabbit meat. Since you didn't kill it, why not take it home and raise it?"

Shen Yao said, "What else do you want? I'll call it for you."

Shen Yao really doted on her to the extreme.

Su Rou said, "What are you looking for? I also want a deer."

"Lu... yes, if you want, I will satisfy you."

The two figures were getting farther and farther away.

On the rugged mountain road, the Yuan family's carriage was driving towards the top of the mountain.

Yuan Wen sat in the carriage with a letter in his hand. This was the only news that Yuan Wenfu had sent back in all these days.

The letter said that Yuan Wenfu was hunted by the emperor halfway, so he dared not show up after arriving in the Southern Kingdom. Today, the Southern Kingdom is holding an autumn hunt, and His Majesty will not find him, so he asked Yuan Wen to come to Wufeng Mountain to meet him.

Yuan Wenfu's seal was stamped on the lower right corner of the letter, so there was no possibility that the letter could be forged.

Today is indeed the Southern Kingdom's autumn hunt, and Yuan Wen also thinks it is a good time without alarming the Southern Kingdom's court and His Majesty.

When I get to the top of the mountain, I must find out what is going on.

Yuan Wen suddenly felt the carriage stop.

I lifted the curtain and looked outside. They were still on the mountainside.

A sharp sword suddenly stabbed in from outside. The sword was across her, causing Yuan Wen's breathing to suddenly stop. Two petals of the hairpin on her head were cut off by the sword.

She held her head, curled up in the carriage, and shouted, "Guards!"

But it was surprisingly quiet outside.

The people outside lifted the curtain and dragged Yuan Wen out by her ankle.

The delicate hair accessories on her head came loose during the dragging process. She was caught off guard by the sudden attack and looked extremely embarrassed.

Only then did Yuan Wen realize that the person attacking her was not someone else.

These were the guards she brought with her when she went out for safety reasons.

She needed guards to protect her whenever she traveled since she was a child. Yuan Wen knew that she had no ability to resist, so no matter where she went, she always had to bring a few guards with her.

Today, it was the guards around her that brought her danger!

Yuan Wen quickly realized that Yuan Wenfu's letter was a trap.

"Did Yuan Wenfu tell you to do this?!"

"Pa pa pa..." Suddenly, there was a burst of applause in my ears.

Yuan Wen saw Yuan Wenfu and a group of people coming out of the bushes nearby.

They seemed to have been lying in ambush here for a long time.

"My little niece, you've been in charge for so many years, why are you still so naive?"

No matter how naive Yuan Wen was, he could understand what was going on at this moment.

She gritted her teeth, "Traitors! You are the Yuan family's traitors!"
