The Queen ordered Ling Le to deal with the guards of the Princess's Mansion.
Only then, under the guidance of Empress Xian, did they go to the courtyard where Feng Hongyu lived.
Feng Hongyu's maid had just changed the medicine on Feng Hongyu's wound. When she came out with some water, she saw the Queen and her entourage. She was immediately frightened and her face turned pale. The basin in her hand fell directly to the ground with a loud noise.
"What's wrong?"
Hearing the noise, Feng Hongyu wanted to see what happened, but he was too badly injured to get out of bed.
The maid outside did not answer. Feng Hongyu frowned and thought to herself, could it be that Feng Qingqing has returned?
While he was thinking, the trembling voice of the maid was heard at the door.
"Your servant greets His Majesty."
The Queen glanced at her pale, trembling face and said calmly, "Get up! I'm a cannibal? You're so scared."
The maid knelt on the ground with a pale face, not getting up. She was obviously too frightened to speak clearly, but she still said in a trembling voice: "Your Majesty, no matter what the princess said to you, please do not punish the princess."
The empress finally understood after hearing this. The maid's expression was because she thought the purpose of her visit was to deal with Hongyu.
Yes, she has never cared about her daughter in all these years, so it is normal for the maid to misunderstand her.
"Get up," the Queen said gently, without any anger. "I'm here to see your princess."
The maidservant stole a glance at the prince, and when he nodded, she stood up and let a few people in.
When Ling Changshi noticed the blood spilled on the ground by the maid, he had a bad feeling in his heart. He didn't care about anything else and walked quickly into the house.
The conversation outside ended and the footsteps were getting closer.
Feng Hongyu raised her eyes and looked towards the door, only to see the Queen and her entourage walking towards her.
Her gaze fell on Ling Changshi who was standing behind the empress. Thinking of his words that day, she looked away indifferently.
He struggled to stand up and wanted to salute the queen.
Unfortunately, I failed after trying several times.
"Don't move, my medicine is very expensive."
Qian Jue noticed her movements and spoke out.
"You are injured, so the ceremony is unnecessary."
The Queen looked at Feng Hongyu's face, which was as pale as paper, and spoke in a rare soft voice.
This was the first time Feng Hongyu could remember that the Queen had spoken to her so gently. She was stunned for a moment and began to thank her.
Ling Changshi's eyes fell on his daughter's frail face on the bed. Unable to restrain himself any longer, he quickly walked to her bedside and said in a trembling voice, "Yu'er, what's wrong with you?"
As he spoke, tears flowed down the corners of his eyes and he raised his hand to hold Feng Hongyu's hand.
"Tell me, Dad, what happened to you?"
Feng Hongyu tried to break free from his hand, but the moment she moved, the wound on her heart would pierce with pain, and she could not struggle. She let Ling Changshi hold her hand with a calm expression.
"I'm fine."
"If you have anything to say, just tell it to my face."
Qian Jue fed Feng Hongyu a pill, and felt a little pain in his flesh, so he explained to Ling Changshi.
"She acted like this because of you. Her life was already hard, and after finally returning home, she was hurt by your words. She couldn't get over it and planned to die. Fortunately, she was discovered early and was saved."
"By the way, before she died, she was still thinking about how to make your life better."
After Qian Jue finished speaking, Ling Changshi finally understood that it was he who had caused his daughter to become like this. His lips trembled as he sobbed:
"I'm sorry, Yu'er. It's Dad who's sorry for you. Dad thought you'd live a better life this way, but I didn't expect that you almost lost your life."
Feng Hongyu saw him crying sadly, and her tense face softened.
"Don't cry, I'm fine now, right?"
"I blame Dad for not explaining it to you clearly. The princess wanted to use me to threaten you, and I was worried that it would be difficult for you, so I came up with this stupid idea."
"When the princess was in Tianqi, she was threatened by the princess and asked to steal Tianqi's city defense map."
The maid knelt before the empress.
"Your Majesty, you must stand up for the princess. The Crown Princess has been secretly planting spies in Tianqi and colluding with the Qiang Kingdom, attempting to provoke war between the two countries."
The Queen looked at the maid on the ground, "The princess is dead. Your master will not be threatened again."
The maid and Feng Hongyu both had expressions of disbelief on their faces.
"She is not my child. You have suffered all these years."
The Queen looked a little uncomfortable when she said this, because she didn't care about her daughter at all, so when Feng Qingqing mentioned letting Hongyu go to marry, she agreed without any hesitation.
At that time, she didn't even think about what would happen if Hongyu went there, and just treated it as a trivial matter and put it behind her mind.
"You two father and daughter can have a good chat. I'll be leaving first."
The Queen stood up and walked out, and Yu Yiluo and the others followed suit.
There were only father and daughter left in the room, and Feng Hongyu spoke softly.
"Dad, let go of my hand first."
When Ling Changshi heard her calling him, he quickly withdrew his hand and wiped the tears from his face.
"Dad wasn't paying attention, maybe he hurt your wound."
Feng Hongyu shook her head, "It's okay."
She looked at Ling Changshi with a smile on her lips, "If Dad wants to do anything in the future, you can discuss it with me. You have acted too well these years. I thought you really didn't like me as your daughter."
So when she heard what Ling Changshi said, the self-deceiving defense line in her heart was completely broken.
"Okay, Dad will explain everything to you from now on."
When Ling Changshi's servants saw the father and daughter talking to each other, they were also happy for their master.
"Princess, the master actually cares about you."
Seeing that Ling Changshi did not stop him, the attendant continued speaking.
"When you were a child, you were bullied by the princess. The master secretly sent you medicine and also secretly applied medicine to you at night."
