She is not a fool. Prime Minister Xiao Sheng seems to suspect that she is from southern Xinjiang, but it doesn't matter.

Southern Xinjiang is just a small country. Although it is adjacent to Dayao, its national strength is limited. Dayao can easily recapture it by force. The reason why it is allowed to exist is the unique geographical location of Southern Xinjiang and its natural protective terrain.

The most terrible thing is that it is sandwiched between Dayao and Dayan. It can be said that whoever occupies this country can attack or defend and is almost invincible.

This place is a battleground for military strategists, and neither Dayao nor Dayan would allow the other country to capture it, so the southern border has continued to exist.

There is trade with both countries. At the same time, both countries have stationed a large number of troops in the areas adjacent to southern Xinjiang just in case.

Xiao Tao had told her in casual conversation before that the place adjacent to Dayao and Southern Xinjiang was Yongzhou, and Yongzhou was... the fief of the King of Yue.

There shouldn't be any connection between them, right?

Lin Zhiyi secretly thought that this was not good. She said that she was just a supporting actress after all and had too few roles. Would her extraordinary identity be revealed after her death, causing some conflict?

When she awakened her will, she only read the novel summary and her own memories, and she really knew nothing.

"The jade pendant is temporarily kept in the hands of the Prime Minister. It will be returned after its origin is found out. You can leave." Duanmu Qi spoke again.

Li Song immediately took Lin Zhiyi out, and this time they walked very fast, probably because they were afraid of being called again.

"Your Majesty, I only had three guesses before that Lin Zhiyi might be related to Southern Xinjiang's leaning towards King Yue. Now I have at least seven suspicions. This woman must be under the control of Your Majesty." Xiao Sheng advised.

He had no intention of letting go, and the Prime Minister gave him a reason to take action.

Seeing the bright red lips flash before his eyes, Duanmu Qi stood up and said, "I know what's going on. I'll send someone to keep an eye on her to prevent Shunan from hurting her. Go back to the palace."

As soon as Lin Zhiyi returned home, the old woman looked at him with a look of disbelief, and she wanted to strip Lin Zhiyi naked to see if she was cheating on her.

But after hearing that Xiaotao was a maid given by His Majesty, her expression became kind and she showed great concern.

In the evening, Li Song took a shower early, his eyes full of anxiety, and it was obvious what he wanted to do.

Lin Zhiyi was lying on the couch in her middle dress, with no intention of refusing at all. She looked down on Li Song and naturally didn't want to do it, but she didn't need to be anxious, because there were people who disagreed more than she did.

It was obvious why Xiaotao came back.

There was a muffled groan from behind the screen, and the sound of splashing water stopped.

Lin Zhiyi fell asleep with a strange smile. Was she planning to let Li Song soak in the bathtub?

After a good night's sleep, she was woken up by a sneeze in the early morning. Lin Zhiyi looked at Li Song, who was pale and shivering as he climbed onto the bed, and quickly wrapped the quilt around him.

"Husband, have you been soaking all night? It's all my fault that I was tired and fell asleep first, so I didn't notice. I'll go get a doctor for you right away."

Li Song was obviously feverish and said weakly, "Don't blame... Madam, I fell asleep without noticing. Thank you for your help... Madam."

"Stop talking, Xiaotao, and go get a doctor to see your husband!"

Little Peach, who had done something bad last night, said with a smug tone, "Okay, Madam, don't worry. I'll go get someone right away."

After a lot of trouble, Li Song took the medicine and went to sleep.

The old woman's fingers, as thick as carrots, were about to poke into Lin Zhiyi's brain: "How can you take care of someone? You didn't even notice me showering all night. Did you sleep like a dead pig?"

Xiao Tao was indignant and tried to step forward to break the finger, but was pulled behind by Lin Zhiyi.

"Mother, it's my fault. I will never do that again. I should be at home taking care of my husband, but Princess Shun'an invited me to stay in the Princess's Mansion. This..."

The reward was delivered early in the morning, but Lin Zhiyi didn't touch any of it. It was all taken away by the old women.

This old woman is a die-hard fan of Princess Shunan. When she heard the word "Princess", her attitude immediately changed.

"The princess has invited you, why don't you hurry up? Don't let our Li family get away. The princess told you to stand and not sit. You are not allowed to disobey in the slightest. Do you hear me?"

"My daughter-in-law knows, but..." Lin Zhiyi looked aggrieved.

"Mother, I still can't get over this. After all, the princess once had a crush on Li Lang. If I can't help but show my displeasure, I'll be punished, which is a small matter. But if His Majesty hears about it, it will be bad. Mother, can you go with me? I will obey you."

The old lady looked hesitant.

Lin Zhiyi continued to add fuel to the fire, "The princess values ​​Li Lang so much, she must respect mother very much. I heard that when the late emperor was alive, he doted on Princess Shun'an and her brother, the King of Yue. If mother can make friends with the princess, then Li Lang's future will be..."

The old woman's eyes lit up instantly: "You are of humble status, so it's inevitable that you will be timid in front of the princess. As your mother, I will accompany you."

"Thank you, mother."

Lin Zhiyi smiled sweetly, like a young person who had successfully acted like a spoiled brat to her mother. However, Xiaotao clearly remembered that the Madam had said in front of His Majesty that she wanted to sue the old lady of the Li Mansion and have her thrown in jail...

Princess House.

The lush greenery is flourishing and the garden is filled with rich moisture.

Looking out from the railing, I saw a gorgeous woman in goose yellow palace dress leaning on a chaise longue in the breeze corridor and waterside pavilion, playing with the tribute fruits in her hands. Two palace maids were fanning her behind her, and two more were massaging her legs and shoulders.

The maid in light blue clothes in front of him whispered a few words.

Duanmu Ying narrowed her beautiful eyes slightly: "Is the old lady of the Li Mansion following you?"

"Yes, we're already at the door."

Duanmu Ying frowned and said, "Go and cancel the previous arrangements. This is not the time to humiliate her. After all, she is Li Lang's mother. She was considerate enough to imprison Lin Zhiyi before. I will give her some face."

"Slave, go now."

"Your Highness the Princess, I pay my respects to you. May Your Highness be well." Another kneeling ceremony, Lin Zhiyi was really numb.

A fragrant breeze blew in front of me, and my wrist was held.

Duanmu Ying personally helped the two of them up and said, "Hurry up, I don't care about these empty formalities."

Lin Zhiyi complained, "I've already knelt down and you say you don't care. Are you kidding me?"

If the old woman hadn't come with her, she might have just knelt down and refused to get up. After all, it was a formality and she couldn't get up.

Although she had heard many rumors that the top scholar's wife was a fairy from heaven, Duanmu Ying had always thought that these were exaggerations by ignorant people. But when she saw it with her own eyes, she felt a strong sense of displeasure in her heart.

He stared at Lin Zhiyi's face for a long time without being able to utter another polite word, and jealousy surged in his heart.

Holding Lin Zhiyi's wrist, she unconsciously applied force. Before the sharp armor pierced her skin, Lin Zhiyi reacted violently and slapped her face with her backhand: "Ah, it hurts."

Duanmu Ying: “…”

Madam Li, who was being beaten: "..."

Xiaotao widened her eyes, Madam is so awesome!

Duanmu Ying's maidservant in blue angrily scolded: "How dare you! The princess didn't use any force, why are you doing this?"

Lin Zhiyi raised her red wrist and said aggrievedly, "I am not very strong, and even the slightest bump will hurt me. For this reason, my husband doesn't dare to touch me hard."

"Princess, please forgive me. I didn't mean to do that. Mother, please don't be angry. I was just feeling the pain subconsciously, not wanting to hit you."

The old woman was obviously very angry, but she couldn't lose her composure in front of outsiders, so she rubbed her face, suppressing her anger.

"As a mother, I won't hold it against you. Scaring the princess is a serious matter. Why don't you apologize?"
