After Li Shu fell to the ground and hit the stone, he felt dizzy and uncomfortable. He raised his hand and stretched out to Li Yuan, who was stunned beside him, and uttered weakly, "Lu Yuan, my head hurts, help me, help me!"

Lu Yuan looked at the bright red blood oozing out of Li Shu's head, his expression ferocious and in great pain. Suddenly his mind went blank and he didn't know what to do. He stepped back repeatedly, muttering, "It's not me, it's not me, it has nothing to do with me!" Then Li Han fled without looking back.

Li Shu lay on the ground, watching Lu Yuan run away. He felt desperate and helpless. He wanted to shout but found that he had no strength at all, not even a sound. His eyelids closed as if they weighed a thousand pounds, and then he fainted.

After a while, a maid found Li Shu lying on the ground dying, and hurriedly shouted for the imperial physician. Soon this incident alarmed the entire palace.

"Hmph, who on earth has the guts to harm the second princess in the palace? Where were you all at that time?" The emperor was furious at the guards and attendants who were kneeling on the ground.

Everyone was trembling with fear at the emperor's majesty, and they all shook their heads. The emperor frowned and slammed the table, "You bunch of rubbish! If anything happens to the princess, I'll bury you all with me!"

"Your Majesty, please spare our lives!" Everyone kowtowed and begged for mercy.

At this time, the queen came out of the room, her eyes red and tears streaming from the corners of her eyes. She knelt on the ground and said in a choked voice: "Your Majesty, you must do something for Shu'er and catch that evil man!"

Mother and daughter are connected by heart. The queen was just looking at the dying Li Shu in the room. There were bloodstains and deep scars on her forehead. Even if Li Shu survived in the end, the scar on her forehead was a difficult thing to deal with. It was not a good thing for either the princess or Li Shu.

"Queen, it's okay. Shu'erji has a good fortune, and she will be fine. Don't worry, I will give you an explanation and find the evildoer!" The emperor quickly helped the empress up and comforted the crying queen. Then he turned to Li Han and said, "Han'er, help your mother into the room!"

Li Han took the Queen from the Emperor's arms and took her to the bedroom. When the Queen arrived at the room, she hugged Li Han and cried, "Han'er, if something happens to Shu'er, what will I do? My poor Shu'er!"

"Mother, it's okay. Shu'er will be fine. You must stay calm now. You are the master of the palace. The more you are at this time, the more you must not let yourself get confused. Don't give others the opportunity to take advantage of you!"

Li Han's words instantly reminded the Queen that the most terrifying thing in this deep palace is the human heart. Everyone is chasing power, but only with power can one go further and longer. The Queen wiped away her tears and took Li Han's hand, "Han'er, you are the only one left for your mother now. You must be careful!"

Li Han nodded, comforted the queen, and asked her to lie down and rest. After all, she had been anxious about Li Shu's matter for a long time. Li Han stayed by the queen's side until the queen fell asleep, and then Li Han left.

After leaving the Queen's bedroom, Li Han went to the place where Li Shu fell and walked around, but found nothing. Then he went to ask the guards and attendants on duty that day, but the result was the same as the Emperor's. No one knew what happened that day, and no one knew who Li Shu met or if there were any suspicious people or things.

Li Han always felt that this matter was a bit strange. It couldn't be that an assassin had hurt Li Shu. Even if it was, he wouldn't attack a princess on the road outside the Queen's Palace and disappear quietly. No matter how Li Han thought about it, he felt that there was something wrong with this matter, but he just couldn't figure it out.

After Li Yuan pushed Li Shu, he immediately ran to Concubine Song. From childhood to adulthood, Li Yuan had never encountered such a thing. If it was just a palace maid who was injured, it would be fine. The most important thing is that the person injured this time was Li Shu, her second imperial sister. If it is really investigated, it will be a serious crime of harming compatriots.

Li Yuan hurriedly came to Concubine Song's palace. When he reached the door, he bumped into a palace maid who was delivering cakes. Then he lost his balance and fell to the ground, rolling twice.

Concubine Song frowned and said, "Look at what you are like. As a prince, you are always so impatient. With your character, how can you win the favor of your father? How can you achieve great things in the future?"

Seeing her son so unstable, Concubine Song was still anxious and disappointed. She couldn't help but touch her belly, thinking that if Li Yuan was unreliable, she would have to put all her hopes on the child in her belly.

"Mother, I hurt Li Shu!" Li Yuan hurriedly got up from the ground, forgetting to greet Concubine Song. He knelt on the ground, pulling her legs and begging, "Mother, you must save me. I don't want to be punished by my father, and I don't want to be exiled!"

"What?" Concubine Song was shocked by Li Yuan's words and stood up suddenly. The maid beside her hurriedly supported her, fearing that Concubine Song would have a miscarriage.

"You, what can I say to you!" Concubine Song didn't know what to say anymore. She ordered the maid beside her, "Hurry up and find out how the Second Princess is doing. Report back as soon as you have any news!"

Later, the maid inquired about the news, "Noble Consort, according to the imperial physician, the Second Princess's injuries aren't serious, but the wounds are very deep and may leave scars. She's also been unconscious due to excessive blood loss!"

Concubine Song closed her eyes, not knowing what she was thinking. Li Han became even more frightened after hearing what the maid said. Just as she was about to say something, Concubine Song raised her hand to stop her.

"It's impossible to ask Li Shu for mercy now. Given her personality, she will definitely not let us go. Even if Li Shu forgives us, the Queen will definitely use this as an excuse to ask His Majesty to punish us mother and son. In this case, it's better to go all out and kill Li Shu directly so that no one will know!"

A hint of cruelty flashed in Concubine Song's eyes. Li Yuan was also afraid when he saw it. After all, killing one's own clan was a capital crime. "Mother, will there be any problems if I do this?"

"If she doesn't die, we will be the ones to die. Do you want us all to be beheaded because of your stupidity?" Concubine Song gave Li Yuan a glare that scared him so much that he swallowed back the words that were about to come out of his mouth.

Afterwards, Concubine Song sent her maid to assassinate Li Shu, but Li Han was afraid that Li Shu would be in danger again, so he asked Lu Li to send troops to surround the outside, and secretly sent his own forces to guard Li Shu quietly.

Concubine Song's maid was observing from a distance and found that there were three layers of people surrounding her, so she could not find any chance to attack Li Shu!
