"That Concubine Rou in Zhongcui Palace is related to the King of Qi. Furthermore, I've noticed that pigeons often fly into her palace.

Lipin of Shaoyang Palace went to deliver ginseng soup to the emperor yesterday. After being scolded by the emperor and sent back to Shaoyang Palace, she arranged for Caixia to poison you, the queen.

"Concubine Zhang of Yongning Palace locks her bedroom tightly every night, and no servants are allowed to enter. This servant hasn't had time to investigate properly."

"Oh!" Su Yuer opened her eyes, and a murderous intent flashed across her eyes.

It seems some people can't hold back any longer! "Cuihong, keep a close eye on Xianyin Palace."

"Okay, Your Majesty!" Cuihong responded and helped Su Yuer out of the bathtub.

Cuihong wiped Su Yuer dry with a bath towel, put underwear on Su Yuer, and helped Su Yuer lie down on the couch.

She leaned against the bed, thinking to herself: "Prince Qi? Hasn't this uncle of the emperor always been in his fiefdom? How could he be connected with Concubine Rou?"

She couldn't fathom the relationship between the two. She wondered if it was... She sat up suddenly, waiting until nightfall to go to Zhongcui Palace to find out.

"Your Majesty, Concubine Zhang requests an audience." The palace maid reported outside the palace.

At this time, Cuihong walked into the inner hall with soup, "Your Majesty, I made hot soup from the small kitchen, please drink it first." Then, she helped Su Yuer put on her dress.

Su Yuer took a sip of the hot soup and said, "Cuihong, this soup is delicious."

"This hot soup is good for your health." Su Yu'er drank a few more sips before leaving the inner hall.

She sat directly on the throne and wiped the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief. "Let her in."

Concubine Zhang walked into the hall and knelt in greeting. "Greetings, Her Majesty the Queen."

"Please stand up! What does Lady Zhang want from me?"

Concubine Zhang looked at Su Yu'er with tears in her eyes and said, "Your Majesty, I am wronged! Someone falsely accused me of having an affair by locking the palace gates at night. Please, Your Majesty, help me!"

Su Yuer sneered in her heart. This beautiful lady is quite eloquent and can speak without hesitation.

She said calmly, "I will investigate this matter thoroughly. If you are truly innocent, I will not make things difficult for you."

When Concubine Zhang heard this, her face turned pale instantly and her body trembled.

She threw herself to the ground without hesitation, knelt on her knees and hugged Su Yu'er's legs tightly, tears streaming down her face, her voice choked with sobs: "Empress, please believe me! I did have hostility towards you in the past, but after this period of reflection and thinking, I have deeply realized my mistakes.

Now, I am willing to follow the Queen wholeheartedly, obey your will, and obey your orders!" Her eyes were full of begging and regret, hoping to gain Su Yu'er's forgiveness and trust.

Su Yuer's face was full of black lines. If you want to cry, just cry. Why are you hugging my thigh?

"Lady Zhang, I will definitely handle your matter impartially.

You should get up first, my legs are a little numb!"

Concubine Zhang immediately let go and quickly returned to her pitiful appearance, "Thank you, Queen."

Concubine Zhang lowered her head, a ruthless look flashed across her eyes, "I'll take my leave!" After saying this, she stood up, bowed, and left Fengluan Palace.

Su Yu'er sat on the throne, watching Concubine Zhang's departing back.

She said she followed orders, but she couldn't hide her inner cruelty. I guess Zhang Mei wanted to kill her right away.

No one would believe the nice words you say now.

Su Yuer muttered: "I'm all dirty..."

She held my legs tightly and played with them.

"Since she wants to cause trouble so badly, I don't mind beating this devil to pieces!"

Cuihong asked softly, "My Lady, is that beautiful lady Zhang upset? She's holding onto your legs and won't let go. What's she up to?"

"She's in a hurry to drink Meng Po soup."

Su Yu'er said to Cuihong beside her, "Secretly monitor Lady Zhang's every move. Report any abnormalities to me immediately. I will make arrangements."

"Yes, your majesty." After Cuihong took the order and retreated, she disappeared from the hall in an instant.

At this time, after leaving Fengluan Palace, Concubine Zhang brought the palace maids back to Yongning Palace.

After arranging for someone to guard the door, she entered the bedroom and picked up the handkerchief that was wrapped around Su Yuer's thigh.

She smiled sinisterly, "Humph! Su Yu'er, aren't you very powerful? Hahahaha... So what if you are powerful? So what if you become the queen? Hahahaha...

When the palace maids in Yongning Palace heard the shrill laughter coming from the bedroom, they all thought that this beauty had gone crazy.

Su Yuer walked out of the palace and saw the bright midday sun, the high sky, the light clouds and the gentle breeze. The palace walls looked particularly solemn under the sunlight.

In the palace gardens, chrysanthemums are in full bloom, their vibrant colors contrasting sharply with the coolness of autumn.

Tall sycamore trees stand there, their leaves gradually turning yellow in the autumn wind, falling sporadically on the lawn.

She stood under the sycamore tree, looking up at the thick branches, a swing appearing in her mind. "Guan Jun!"

"I'm here!" Guan Jun bowed and walked over.

"Under this tree, tie a swing for me."

"Yes, Your Majesty." Guan Jun responded and turned around to prepare.

In a short while, Guan Jun had finished installing the swing.

Su Yu'er walked forward and tugged at the colored rope. Then, she sat on the swing and the palace maid stepped forward to push it.

As the colorful ropes of the swing swung gracefully up and down, her bright red dress and graceful figure danced in the air. The ropes swayed around her wrists, and the golden bells rang out.

The corners of her mouth curled up as she chuckled softly... accompanied by the drifting leaves. The swing swung higher and higher, and her clothes fluttered in the wind, like a fairy descending to earth, with rosy cheeks, a graceful figure, and a fleeting look in her eyes.

The palace maids and eunuchs looked in amazement at the painting of a beautiful woman on the swing.

When the fun was over, Su Yuer slowly got down from the swing and stood there leisurely.

Her incredibly beautiful face and graceful demeanor make one wonder if she is a fairy who has descended from the Moon Palace.

After being completely exhausted from playing, the palace maid came forward and helped Su Yuer back to the inner hall.

She came to the window, took out a lazy sofa from the space, and took a nap.

Fell into a light sleep...

The sun shone softly on her face. She yawned lazily, hugged the lazy sofa tightly, and muttered, "I don't want to get up. My little sofa is so comfortable."

At this time, Cuihong had already come to her side and told Su Yuer everything she had witnessed when she sneaked into Yongning Palace.

Su Yu'er curled her lips and smiled contemptuously: "I am the one who performed the shaman dance, and I am afraid of her trick of piercing the villain."

Cuihong thought for a moment and then said, "Your Majesty, should we inform the Emperor of what Lady Zhang has done so that he can make the final decision?"

"It's just a trivial matter, why bother him? Besides, as the head of the six palaces, I can just deal with it directly."

Cuihong whispered, "Your Majesty, the method used by this beauty is exactly the same as the one Su Yuxing used to harm you back then. Could this be related to Su Yuxing?"

"How could I forget about her? Cuihong, go and investigate Su Yuxing. This beauty Zhang dared to do such an evil thing, which shows that she has an extremely vicious mind. This person must not be allowed to stay!" Su Yu'er turned around and said in a cold tone.

Cuihong's brows were furrowed, almost twisted into a ball. The Empress had suffered for a full ten years because of Su Yuxing since she was a child. Now, she was using Concubine Zhang to continue to harm the Empress.

It's really unbearable for my uncle, but not for my aunt!

Cuihong did not hesitate at all and said immediately, "Your Majesty, I will do it right away." After that, she hurriedly left Fengluan Palace.

Su Yu'er lay on the sofa, her face slightly gloomy, a fierce murderous intent flashing in her eyes. She muttered to herself, "Su Yuxing, I'll let you jump around for a while. Lady Zhang, are you so obsessed with stabbing people? I don't know any medicine, so where should I stab you? I'm really looking forward to it!"

After Xiao Mohan finished his duties in the imperial study, he returned to Fengluan Palace. As he entered the inner hall, he saw Su Yu'er curled up on a small sofa.

Su Yu'er subconsciously raised her head and said with a smile: "Husband! Why are you back?"

Xiao Mohan flashed and instantly picked up the person from the sofa into his arms.

He lowered his eyes and stared at the person in his arms and said, "I just finished my official duties and couldn't wait to rush back."

Su Yu'er leaned her head on Xiao Mohan's shoulder and asked softly, "Husband, have you had your meal yet?"

"Not yet, use it with my wife!"

"Okay! Let's go back to the small kitchen in the space and eat." Su Yu'er coquettishly hooked her hands around his neck. As soon as she finished speaking, the two of them had already entered the space.

Xiao Mohan carried her into the small kitchen, and the two began to choose their food to enjoy.

After lunch, he carried Su Yuer back to the bedroom to rest.

Su Yu'er lay in Xiao Mohan's arms and told him in detail what Concubine Zhang had done today and the possible connection between her and Su Yuxing.

Xiao Mo said coldly: "If she dares to have such thoughts, then there is no need for her to live, just get rid of her."

"I want to know whether the power behind this beautiful woman will harm my husband."

Xiao Mohan stroked her cheek gently and said softly, "It doesn't matter. As long as Madam is safe and sound, there's no need to worry about anything else."

"It would be a good idea to bring this matter to light, to shock the court and frighten them."

Xiao Mohan lowered his eyes to look at her and said gently, "Madam, I'll take care of everything!"

"Okay, then I'll go jump rope tonight." Su Yuer's eyes lit up with excitement.

Xiao Mohan shook his head lovingly and said, "By the way, today we received news that An Yi will return to the palace the day after tomorrow, bringing back two secret guards.

The day after tomorrow, the Kunling Kingdom delegation will arrive. Madam, you must accompany your husband to attend this banquet."

"Ok!"

“Hanyu Academy is scheduled to open in the middle of next month.

I have already sent invitations to the other four countries for the opening of the academy, and also asked the Minister of Rites to send someone to Phoenix Mountain.

After entertaining the delegation, your husband will go to Phoenix Mountain with you to attend the opening ceremony of Hanyu Academy.
