Seeing that the effect was almost there, Su Li slowly woke up.

Xiao Ye was surprised: "Madam! You are awake!"

Seeing this, Xiao Wu stopped crying and hurriedly helped Su Li up with Xiao Ye.

"What's going on?"

At this time, Prince Chun, who had been standing under a tree not far away for a long time, also walked over with a smile on his face.

The maidservant beside Nanny Wen quickly bowed respectfully and said, "This servant greets Your Highness. Long live Your Highness."

Just as Nanny Wen was struggling to get up, Prince Chun asked with concern, "What happened to Nanny Wen? How did you get hurt?"

Then he looked at the maid beside him and said, "What are you standing there for? Why don't you send him to the doctor?"

After all, she is the nanny in charge of his mother, so he should be "concerned about her".

The maid respectfully replied, "Yes, Your Highness."

As he said this, he quickly helped Nanny Wen to her feet.

"Thank you, Your Highness." The hairpin had pierced her chest. Nanny Wen was also afraid of death, so she decided to go to the Imperial Hospital for a check-up.

Until now she still doesn't understand why she suddenly felt a sharp pain in her knee and fell down. Could it be that her old knee problem has recurred?

But it hurts so much, more than ever.

Su Li on the side looked at the tall, handsome and noble man in front of him with some surprise.

For some reason, she always felt that he looked familiar.

Had she seen him before?

But she really didn't know him? The original owner's memory didn't even have him.

She bowed and said, "Your Highness, I, your humble servant Pei Su, greet you. May your Highness receive the best wishes."

The maid called him "Your Highness". Although she didn't know which "Your Highness" it was, she still called him "Your Highness", so she just had to bow.

Seeing her calm and composed face, as if the person who had just fainted on the ground was not her, Prince Chun found it interesting.

He smiled and said, "No need to be polite."

I originally wanted to help her, but I didn't expect that she would start a big drama here.

faint?

Prince Chun couldn't help but laugh.

Seeing her agile posture when running yesterday, she didn't look like the type who would faint if standing for a while.

This is deliberately forcing her mother not to make things difficult for her.

Sure enough, as soon as he finished speaking, the maid who had just gone in to report came out in a hurry, followed by several sturdy palace maids.

Seeing that Prince Chun was a little surprised, she quickly bowed and saluted: "This servant greets Your Highness, may Your Highness live long and happy."

"No need to be polite. Is my mother in there?"

Mother?

Su Li glanced at Prince Chun. It turned out that he was Concubine Xiao’s second son, Prince Chun.

Concubine Xiao had two princes in total. She had met the eldest prince, Prince Ning, at Zhaoming Temple that day, so this one could only be Prince Chun.

"Your Highness, the Queen is inside."

Prince Chun nodded and said to Su Li, "Madam Pei wants to see my mother, right? Let's go in together."

The maid was a little surprised. Could it be that His Highness knew this Madam Pei? And Madam Pei had fainted, so when did she wake up?

Then he said, "Her Majesty, please let Madam Pei in."

When the Empress learned about what happened at the door, she originally asked her to ask a few people to carry her into the palace to prevent the situation from getting worse and alarming the Emperor.

Su Li nodded, looking weak as if he had just fainted, and followed him in.

In Yaohua Palace.

Concubine Xiao, dressed in gorgeous colorful clothes, sat at the head of the table with a calm expression.

Prince Chun still had a faint smile on his face as he bowed and saluted: "Your son greets the Queen Mother. May the Queen Mother be well."

Su Li also bowed and saluted: "Your Highness, I greet you. May your Highness live long and long."

Concubine Xiao frowned: "Everyone get up."

Then he asked again: "Why did you think of coming to me?"

This is a question to Prince Chun.

Prince Chun replied, "After the court was dismissed today, I realized that it has been a long time since I paid my respects to the Queen Mother, so I came here."

"Well, in that case, now that An has been invited, you are busy with official business, so you should leave the palace early."

Su Li lowered her head slightly, listening to the polite yet cold conversation between the mother and son without being surprised.

In the original novel, Concubine Xiao had a very cold relationship with her second son. To be more precise, there was almost no affection between them. The two of them were just indifferent in spirit.

"yes."

Prince Chun glanced at Su Li. Judging from her actions, she seemed to have her own ideas. He thought that she had her own way to deal with it, so he would not interfere.

"I'll take my leave."

After Prince Chun left, Concubine Xiao looked at Su Li for a moment before saying, "I heard you just fainted. Are you alright? Do you want to ask the imperial physician to see you?"

Su Li raised her eyebrows slightly: "Thank you for your concern, your Majesty, I am fine now.

"The affairs of the harem are complicated. It is my fault for keeping you waiting for so long."

Su Li sneered in his heart. It was really disgusting that he put others in a difficult position and then acted so pretentiously.

She raised the corners of her mouth and replied calmly, "I dare not. Your Majesty is temporarily in charge of the harem and is busy with things. It is normal for her to forget that I am waiting outside the door."

Su Li deliberately emphasized the word "temporary management".

Sure enough, Concubine Xiao's expression turned stiff in an instant.

She had been in charge of the Phoenix Seal and the harem for nearly ten years, but the emperor had never mentioned making her the empress. This was the thing she could not tolerate the most.

Now, this audacious woman deliberately pointed it out, which was clearly a slap in her face!

Rong'er was right. This woman was indeed sharp-tongued and bold.

Not only was he sharp-tongued and audacious, he was also quite scheming. He pretended to be exhausted and fainted, forcing her to no longer wait outside.

No wonder she dared to compete with Rong'er for the person. I was just afraid that she would rely on her cleverness and lose her own identity.

She took a deep breath and said in a condescending tone, "I heard that Madam Pei came from the countryside. Is that true?"

Su Li understood that Princess Rongfu was unaware of her imminent death and was still thinking about snatching Pei Ji away.
