Chan'er's eyes were filled with bitter resentment. She gritted her teeth and said, "You've ruined our master's plan, so we want your life. Lin Yiwan, today is the day you die!"

She didn't hesitate any longer and pounced forward with a sharp dagger in hand.

Zi'er rushed forward to resist, but the coachman grabbed her wrist with the whip.

Lin Yiwan sneered and thrust the sharp silver needle directly into Chan'er's forehead.

"Puff!" Chan'er was stabbed and fell backwards to the ground.

The groom was suddenly a little flustered. He shouted anxiously: "Chan'er!"

Chan'er forced herself to speak: "Don't worry about me, kill them, kill them quickly, for the sake of the master's cause, she, Lin Yiwan, must die!"

The groom gritted his teeth, raised his sword and rushed towards Lin Yiwan.

Zi'er pushed him back and pushed him closer to the cliff.

The groom suddenly smiled grimly: "Let's die together!"

After saying that, he dragged Zi'er and jumped towards the cliff.

Lin Yiwan rushed over quickly, grabbed Zier's wrist and pulled her hard.

Zi'er fell on the cliff, her face full of anxiety as she said, "Madam, let go, you will get hurt!"

Lin Yiwan gritted her teeth and said, "It's better for me to get hurt than for you to fall. Hold on, I will definitely pull you up!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Chan'er's mocking voice came from behind her: "Madam Hou, have you forgotten that I'm not dead yet?"

Lin Yiwan's cold eyes fell on her, and she said in a cold voice, "Of course I will spare your life and bring you to Qiu Tang, so that she can see clearly what kind of person her most trusted maid is!"

Chan'er tried to crawl to her, but she couldn't muster any strength.

She asked in a hissing voice: "Bitch, are your silver needles coated with poison?"

Lin Yiwan pulled Zi'er up and said without turning her head, "Anyone who doesn't put on makeup is a fool!"

Chan'er was so angry that she wanted to hit the ground with her hands, but she couldn't muster any strength.

She could only watch as Lin Yiwan rescued Zi'er, picked up the horsewhip that fell on the ground, tied her up and dragged her down the mountain.

At this time, it was already dark.

Chan'er's complacent voice echoed behind the master and servant: "Haha, you can never enter the capital again now. You have no idea what's happening in the palace right now!"

Lin Yiwan shuddered all over. The only big thing that could happen in the palace was the Queen!

No, she must hurry back, otherwise, there will be one corpse and three lives lost!

She didn't dare to delay, turned around and ran down the mountain quickly.

Zi'er followed behind with Chan'er in her arms!

Chan'er sneered, "You can't make it in time. Even if you reach the city gate, what good will it do? You still won't be able to enter the city at all."

Lin Yiwan was too lazy to listen to her whining and turned around to scold her, "If you dare to talk nonsense again, I'll block your throat with a stone!"

Chan'er knew that she had done what she said, so she naturally shouldn't say anything more.

The master and servant ran down the mountain, one step deep and one step shallow, but they could not see the road clearly because of the darkness.

Lin Yiwan reminded: "Zi'er, running around like this all the time is not a solution. Go see if there is a farm nearby so we can borrow a carriage to go back to the city!"

Zi'er threw the cicada on the ground like a dead object and ran away.

Soon, she hurried back, pulling a donkey cart.

Lin Yiwan sat on it and dragged Chan'er into the car.

Zi'er took great effort to make the donkey obedient. She whipped the donkey and drove the donkey cart straight to the official road.

There was a sinister smile in Chan'er's eyes. Now that such a long time has been wasted, the person in the palace will definitely not be alive anymore.

By then, even if Lin Yiwan could arrive in time, it would be too late to save the situation!

What was originally a happy event turned into a funeral, and a rift was bound to arise between the Emperor and the Prince of Li.

If they stir up trouble a little more, who will care about the border war anymore?

In this battle, Sheng Dynasty will definitely lose!

Thinking of this, she felt extremely happy in her heart.

She said in a hoarse voice, "Madam Hou, I advise you not to make any more trouble. If you go to the Sang Family Manor, you might be able to save the old lady's life. If you insist on returning to the capital, you won't be able to save any lives!"

Lin Yiwan looked at her sarcastically, "Madam Sang has always been in good health, and I've always given her longevity tonics. Even if she's seriously injured, she'll be able to hold on for a few days. I can still save her even if I rush to the Sang family farm tomorrow. At this point, no matter how alarmist you are, I won't believe you!"

Chan'er frowned and asked, "In your heart, is currying favor with the powerful really more important than sisterhood?"

Lin Yiwan pinched her chin with one hand: "You don't need to stir up trouble between Qiu Tang and me. I believe she won't blame me!"

Chan'er was strangled and had difficulty breathing, her eyes filled with fear and panic.

At this time, Zi'er said, "Madam Hou, we're at the city gate!"

Lin Yiwan quickly pulled out the imperial gold medal from her sleeve and threw it to her: "Tell them to open the city gates. The emperor has given them the gold medal. Let's see who dares to stop us."

Chan'er was shocked all over. She never expected that she actually had a gold medal bestowed by the emperor.

However, before Zi'er could show the thing, she saw the city gate suddenly open, followed by a carriage rushing out.

"Yingyi!" She exclaimed subconsciously.

Yingyi quickly grabbed the reins and asked with surprise, "Zi'er, is the Marquis's wife in the carriage?"

Zi'er nodded hurriedly: "Yes, I was planning to send her to the palace!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhan Yan quickly got out of the carriage.

He shouted urgently, "Wanwan, follow me to the palace! The Queen is in danger!"

Lin Yiwan didn't care about Chan'er anymore. She immediately handed him her wrist and got into Yingyi's carriage.

Inside the dull carriage, Zhan Yan was the first to ask, "Wanwan, are you injured?"

She quickly shook her head: "I'm fine. I was tricked out of the city by Qiu Tang's maid, Chan'er. I think this is a trap designed by the person behind the scenes. I should have seen through it long ago!"

Zhan Yan soothed them gently, "No one can see ahead or behind. The main reason is that the barbarian spies are hiding too deeply. I didn't expect that they could actually infiltrate the mansions of the powerful in the capital!"

Lin Yiwan couldn't help but gasp: "How do we check it?"

Zhan Yan replied, "All the barbarian spies have a butterfly mark on their shoulders. We've already discussed with the Emperor to have the nurses stationed in the residences of the rich and powerful to check on the health of those ladies under the pretext of teaching them the rules. But before we could do that, something went wrong!"

Lin Yiwan nodded: "That's a good idea. How is the Queen doing now?"

Zhan Yan sighed: "Your grandfather has already fed her a life-saving pill, but she is a twin after all, and she is in great danger now!"

Lin Yiwan urged Yingyi loudly: "Hurry up!"

Soon the two of them arrived at Weiyang Palace, only to hear the emperor's hoarse voice scolding: "Go and see why Zhan Yan hasn't brought Lin Yiwan back yet!"

Lin Yiwan hurriedly shouted, "Here she comes! Your Majesty, your wife is here!"
