It would be impossible for Yunrong to say she wasn't afraid at all after the assassination attempt. As a good young woman raised under the red flag, she would not treat human life as worthless even after time-traveling.

What's more, someone wanted her dead.

However, having held the position of Empress for so many years, she has developed a strong mental fortitude.

After Uya came over and comforted her, Yunrong felt much better. Her mother's love was something her husband could never give her.

When Uya left, she was reluctant to part with her daughter. She thought to herself that although her son-in-law, the emperor, was indeed good to her daughter, her daughter's safety was a real concern.

For a moment, Uya thought that if her daughter had married into a family of equal social standing, she probably wouldn't have suffered like this.

Uya was only thinking this in the heat of the moment. Being in the inner quarters, she knew in her heart that even if her daughter married into a family of equal social standing, it wouldn't necessarily be safe.

As soon as Uya returned home, Misihan received the news and rushed over to inquire.

Mi Sihan: "How is Her Majesty? What happened?"

Uya said, “Your Majesty looks quite well and is indeed unharmed, so don’t worry about that. I think Your Majesty is still a little scared. As for the assassin, Your Majesty said that His Majesty has sent people to investigate and has some leads. I couldn’t get any information from him.”

Uya sighed and said, "The Empress probably doesn't want us to worry, so she doesn't want to tell us."

Mi Sihan nodded. Now that it was true that his daughter was not injured, he felt much more at ease. He couldn't see his daughter and could only hear about her from others, which always made him uneasy.

"Since Your Majesty has said so, we can keep those matters in private. Sigh, it's fortunate that the Emperor is willing to protect us, otherwise..."

Otherwise, he would regret it to death.

He only hoped for his daughter's safety and happiness.

Mi Sihan said this after careful consideration. The Fucha family did have some ability and connections, but they were far inferior to the Emperor. Since his daughter had spoken, it meant that the Emperor would definitely not let the person behind the scenes go.

If he gets involved, he might be taken advantage of, and in the end, it will be his daughter who suffers.

The palace ladies-in-waiting were sent out one after another. Yunrong rested for two days and then started working again. She couldn't stop working even though the murderer hadn't been found.

Following the emperor's arrangements, Yunrong bestowed marriages upon the selected young women as they were due. With each imperial edict issued, the capital quickly became lively again. As for the assassination attempt on the empress, the discussion about it subsided.

Hesheli was somewhat disappointed to hear that neither of her two daughters had been selected for the imperial concubine selection. Since the Empress's death, none of the Hesheli family's daughters had been selected for the imperial concubine selection.

At first, Songgotu was unaware of the whole story and assumed that the emperor was still wary of the Hesheli family and unwilling to give them important positions.

Two days later, the restrictions eased, and news from the palace gradually began to circulate. Soetu heard quite a bit from his colleagues.

When Suo'etu learned that his granddaughter had voluntarily abandoned her marriage plans and returned home to get married on her own, he was furious.

The Emperor's attitude toward the Hesheli family has been unclear in recent years. Although he still values ​​the family, he is not at ease.

It's infuriating that my granddaughter is still so reckless.

Jia Hui's mother was not very clear about these matters. She knew that her daughter had been rejected, and although she was disappointed, the Hesheli family had not been accepted for many years, so she was not surprised.

As a result, her husband called her over and scolded her, saying that she had raised a good daughter who had brought shame to the Hesheli family.

Jia Hui's mother felt very wronged. After learning the whole story, although she felt that her daughter had done wrong, she thought about what her daughter had done with her nephew before the selection of concubines. She knew in her heart that since her daughter liked her nephew, it was okay.

Jia Hui's father felt particularly wronged. He usually only asked his daughter questions at most, but when his daughter did nothing wrong, Suo'etu called her over and scolded her, saying that he had failed to raise his daughter properly.

He didn't dare to go against his father, so he could only vent his anger on his wife.

Anyway, she's the one who raises her daughter, so if she's not raising her well, it's her fault.
