Moreover, seeing that Consort De was about to approach Li Tiao, she realized that she couldn't avoid it any longer; it seemed inappropriate not to go over and pay her respects to Consort De.

But just as Li Tiao was about to walk out, she saw Consort De stop. Then she saw Consort De wave to the group of people following her, only allowing one of the maids to accompany her.

Li Tiao stopped in her tracks and subconsciously hid herself in a crevice in the artificial hill beside her.

"Has the person been found?"

"Not yet, Master."

Li Tiao was puzzled. Consort De was looking for someone, but who was she looking for?!

"Who hid the person?" Consort De asked.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, it seems that no one was hiding them at first, but later, somehow the Fourth Prince found them and they have been unable to be found. It is probably related to the Fourth Prince... Your Majesty, do you think we should ask the Fourth Prince?"

“If I ask the fourth prince, he definitely won’t tell me. I want the fourth prince to come to me on his own initiative.” Consort De thought for a moment and then instructed the nanny: “Here’s what we’ll do. While the morning court session is still in session, go to the Prince’s residence and find Li Tiao. Tell her to come to Yonghe Palace to see me.”

"But Master, that Master Li doesn't seem like someone easy to deal with. If we make things worse, the consequences will be unimaginable!"

"Do as I say. Although I can't say for sure what the fourth prince's attitude is towards that Li Tiao, using her to threaten him will be useful. This time, I will make sure she is badly hurt, if not killed. Then I want to see whether the fourth prince will talk or not!"

Li Tiao covered her mouth tightly, not daring to make a sound, for fear that Consort De would discover her now and make her wish she were dead.
