Wu Yinshuang was startled for a moment, then gritted her teeth and said, "Sister, you really love to joke around."

"Really? Sister, you should learn more from me. It's not good to have a sullen face all day long. It's like crying."

Crying in mourning?

She was being sarcastic.

"Okay, I received your apology, please go back."

"it is good."

Wu Yinshuang had been eager to leave here for a long time, and after hearing what she said, he staggered back to his room.

As her back disappeared, the woman who had been smiling just now suddenly turned cold in her eyes.

In the afternoon, Zhou Yurou summoned Wu Qingyue again.

"Qingyue, are you used to living here these days?"

"To answer your Majesty, I am used to living here."

"You'll get used to it. Stay a few more days then."

"Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty. However, I prefer not to. I grew up outside the palace and suddenly came to this palace. I am not used to it. I want to go home."

"Don't worry, I won't eat you."

"..."

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived——"

Her brows furrowed: Why did Xiao Muheng come here suddenly?

Zhou Yurou said happily, "Please invite the prince in."

Xiao Muheng walked in and saw the woman standing beside him. He pretended to be happy: "Qingyue is here too!"

She understood instantly.

She asked why she was summoned suddenly, and it turned out that he was waiting for her here.

"Meet His Highness the Crown Prince."

"No need to be polite to me, Qingyue."

"Your Highness is the crown prince, and I dare not be presumptuous. Your Highness and I have only met a few times, so to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings, it is better for Your Highness to call me by my full name."

Her words made Xiao Muheng look a little ugly.

"Qingyue and I hit it off right away, and I'm sure the prince does too. Qingyue, you're being too reserved." Zhou Yurou suppressed her displeasure and tried to smooth things over.

Her purpose is to bring two people together.

"Your Majesty!" Wu Qingyue said solemnly, "I am a person who understands propriety, righteousness, and integrity. I know what I should and shouldn't do. Please don't force me."

This sentence clearly points out that the mother and son have no sense of propriety, righteousness, integrity and shame.

"Qingyue!" Xiao Muheng was furious: "The Queen Mother is also doing this for your own good."

For her own good?

funny!

"Heng'er!"

Zhou Yurou stopped him: "Qingyue is young and naive, I don't blame her."

This mother and son are really flexible for the sake of the Wu Mansion behind her!

"You young people are full of energy, unlike me who is old and easily tired. Since Heng'er is here, you should accompany Miss Wu."

This is a blatant matchmaking.

"Yes, Queen Mother."

Zhou Yurou took away all the maids, leaving only Xiao Muheng and Wu Qingyue.

"Your Highness, are you and the Queen performing a double act?"

"I don't understand what you are talking about." Xiao Muheng pretended to be confused.

She scoffed, "You know what I mean."

Xiao Muheng felt a little embarrassed when she saw through his thoughts. He said angrily, "My mother is the Queen of Xiao State, and you dare to mock her. If she really blames me, do you think Wu Hou can protect you? Can he protect the Wu family?"

If soft tactics don’t work, then use hard tactics?

She said quietly, "If you want to accuse someone of something, you'll always find a pretext."

This person... is he still right?

Xiao Muheng had no way to deal with her.

"Is there anything else, Your Highness? If not, I'll leave first."

"No, no."

"Then Your Highness takes his leave."

Zhou Yurou, who had been paying attention to the movements here, couldn't sit still as soon as she left.

"Heng'er!" she said angrily, "You're just going to let her go like that?"

"I am ashamed and don't know what to say to her."

When the women in the palace saw him, they couldn't wait to throw themselves at him, and he didn't need to spend any effort to please women; suddenly someone who didn't play by the rules came, and he had no idea how to coax him.

"I created an opportunity for you, but you didn't seize it. Do you know how important the Wu family behind her is to us?" She said with a look of disappointment: "I don't care what means you use, you must get her! Only by getting her can you gain the support of Marquis Wu and have a chance to ascend to the throne!"

"Mother, I understand."

"I'm glad you understand! Please leave. I'm tired." She looked like she didn't want to say more.

"Yes."

Wu Qingyue walked out of Weiyang Palace and almost collided with a man.

It's him?

"Sir, please stay." She called him, "Why do you look so flustered?"

The man who was called was the imperial physician whom Xiao Chaoyang met in his bedroom that night.

When the man saw that the man was a stranger, he did not dare to neglect him. In this palace, who is not of noble status?

"My lady, I'm going to Changle Palace."

Changle Palace, Xiao Chaoyang's bedroom.

"Are you the imperial physician, sir?" she asked deliberately.

"Yes, Miss."

"Why do you look like that, sir?"

The imperial physician recalled the wrath he had endured in Changle Palace over the past two days. "Miss, you may not know, but I have encountered a difficult situation."

As he spoke, he told her what had happened in Changle Palace.

"I don't know if I can heal the princess's face this time. If I can't heal her again, I will..."

At this point, he couldn't continue.

Wu Qingyue knew what he wanted to say next.

"Are you sure, sir?"

"not at all."

The poison she had given was not so easy to cure, and she did not want to involve innocent people.

"You are lucky to meet me today."

The man's eyes lit up when he heard it, "What do you mean, miss?"

"I have a top-grade antidote pill that can cure a hundred poisons. Since we are destined to meet, I will give it to you. You can use it on the princess."

She took out a small porcelain bottle from the cloth bag she was carrying and handed it to him.

The man was overjoyed and took the porcelain bottle. "If you succeed, Fan will definitely reward you handsomely."

"Saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda. You can use it."

"Thank you, miss."

The man went happily.

She clapped her hands. This time the poisoning was just an appetizer, a small punishment for Xiao Chaoyang. The best was yet to come.

She avoided the palace guards and wandered around the palace aimlessly.

To her, this city was both a prison and a battlefield. As she wandered around, she came to a secluded place, a place she had never been to in her previous life.

Just then, a flute sound came from the front. She was curious and went in the direction of the sound.

Diyin brought her to a dilapidated house. She reached out and pushed the door. It was not locked, so she pushed it open and walked inside.

Although this place is run-down, it is clean and tidy, as if someone lives here.

She walked to a courtyard and the sound of the flute stopped abruptly!

"who are you?"

There was a surprised male voice, and then a man in a wheelchair appeared in front of her.

"I'm sorry, I didn't know anyone was here."

She apologized, but her eyes were fixed on the man.

How come she doesn't know who the man in the wheelchair is?
