The irritation that Concubine Xian had been feeling for the past few days was all directed at Princess Changping.

Princess Changping was so frightened that she trembled and dared not say another word.

"I am tired! Let's go back to the palace!"

The virtuous concubine was too lazy to continue, so she stood up and said to the palace maid behind her.

As time passed, many people left the banquet.

Su Chengjiang said: "Should we leave too?"

Princess Yuzhu was reluctant to leave Su Jinyue, "Sister Su, are you leaving now? Play with Yuzhu for a while longer!"

Just then, a palace maid hurried to Su Jinyue and whispered something in her ear.

"Please come in, Miss Su."

Su Jinyue stood up and handed the jade bead to Su Chengjiang, "Send the jade bead back to the virtuous concubine, and then wait for me in the Imperial Garden."

Seeing a little ball being pushed, Su Chengjiang was at a loss, "Then... where are you going?!"

"That's not your business."

After Su Jinyue finished speaking, she bent down and smiled at Yuzhu, "My dear princess, I will definitely bring you a lot of fun things next time I come to the palace."

"Sister can't accompany you this time, you should go back with this brother obediently."

Yuzhu was very obedient, nodded and said: "Then you go, sister, I can do it myself!"

After waving goodbye to the two people, Su Jinyue followed the palace maid and left.

After leaving the Imperial Garden, Su Jinyue asked the maid, "Why did the Queen want to see me?"

"Miss Su, don't worry. Second Master Su has done a great job in saving the emperor. Our Queen invites you to come over. There will be a reward."

Su Jinyue was on guard, but she smiled and nodded, "I understand."

Led by the palace maid, Su Jinyue walked through several corridors and arrived at the queen's bedroom.

The quietness here is completely different from the noise outside, as if it is another world.

"Miss Su, the Queen is waiting inside, please." The maid said softly, then stepped aside.

Su Jinyue took a deep breath, straightened her dress slightly, and then walked in.

As soon as I entered the room, I saw the queen sitting on a high seat. She was wearing gorgeous palace clothes and had a pretty face, but her eyes were filled with a deep scrutiny.

Several maids stood beside her, serving quietly.

"Your servant greets the Queen." Su Jinyue bowed with a respectful attitude.

The queen nodded slightly, indicating that she didn't need to be polite, "Miss Su, please take a seat."

Su Jinyue thanked him and took a seat as he said.

"Mr. Su has made a great contribution today." The Queen spoke in a gentle but majestic voice.

Su Jinyue bowed her head and replied, "Your Majesty, you are too kind. This is what a brother should do."

"You are a clever and witty girl." The queen looked at her.

"I heard that Miss Su's medical skills are outstanding. Even the virtuous concubine, the crown prince, and several princes all praise you?"

Su Jinyue was shocked when she heard the Queen's words. It would be fine if she just said the virtuous concubine, but when it came to the Crown Prince and the Prince, she was afraid that the Queen had something else in mind.

Su Jinyue smiled slightly, not flustered by her question, "Your Majesty, I am too kind. I am not as good as the imperial physician in the palace."

"It was a coincidence that I was able to cure Princess Yuzhu's illness. I just read a medical book that recorded the history of this disease. The immortal who wrote this medical book is very powerful."

The Queen was somewhat interested in Su Jinyue. Her words were flawless, but she was completely different from the silly daughter of the Marquis's family who was brought back from the farm as rumored outside.

The queen smiled slightly and continued, "You are a humble girl, unlike those people out there who always want to take all the credit for themselves."

Su Jinyue said sternly, "Your Majesty, you are too kind. I just think that this is how it should be."

"Second Master Su has performed a great service in saving the emperor. I wonder what Miss Su wants next time?"

The queen smiled leisurely, "As for the reward..." She deliberately prolonged the last syllable, as if she was choosing her words carefully.

Su Jinyue's heart tightened. The Queen's attitude was really hard to understand.

"Of course, this matter depends on the opinions of His Majesty and the Queen." Su Jinyue said.

The Queen did not continue to speak, but said: "The youngest son of the Zhenguo Mansion, Xiao Duo, has also been missing for several days."

Su Jinyue was stunned for a moment. She didn't expect that the queen would mention Xiao Duo at this time.

"I know that you and Xiao Duo are still engaged, but he has been missing for so many days, so we have to prepare for the worst."

"I wonder what you think?"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, I firmly believe that as long as I don't hear the news of General Xiao's death, he is fine." Su Jinyue lowered her eyes and answered truthfully.

The queen looked thoughtful. "I shouldn't have mentioned this, but I like you very much, so I have to give you a few words of advice. Don't let yourself be imprisoned."

Su Jinyue immediately became alert. What did the Queen mean?

Since she entered the palace, the prince's power has always been closely related to the queen's maternal family, and now.

The prince has a special status. His biological mother died in childbirth, and he has been raised by the queen since he was born.

The queen also had no children, and she only had one son, the prince. Su Jinyue only remembered that in the previous life, the queen seemed to be very fond of this son, the prince.

The Queen's words today inevitably made Su Jinyue think too much.

"Yes." Su Jinyue said ambiguously: "Thank you, Queen, for your concern."

The queen's gaze stayed on her for a moment, then moved away. "Okay, I'm tired too, let's stop here today."

Su Jinyue stood up and bowed respectfully to take her leave. "I'll take my leave."

After walking out of the queen's bedroom, Su Jinyue let out a long sigh.

Although the queen's attitude was kind, every word she said was a test. She was really afraid that if she said something wrong, she would not even be able to leave the queen's bedroom.

After several confrontations, Su Jinyue was really tired, so she left the Queen's bedroom and headed towards the Imperial Garden.

She walked along the corridor alone, and when she passed the rockery, she suddenly turned her head back!

But there was no one behind Su Jinyue at this moment.

She frowned slightly. Why did she feel as if someone was watching her in secret?

Su Jinyue looked around cautiously, and indeed there was no one there. Could it be that she was too tense today?

Sighing, Su Jinyue raised his hand and rubbed his forehead as he passed by the rockery.

Sudden!

There was an extra force on Su Jinyue's arm, and she was suddenly pulled behind the rockery!

"ah……"

Before she could even scream, someone raised his hand and covered her mouth and nose.

The cold and familiar fragrance penetrated into her nostrils in the next step.

"It's me."

A man's unique low voice sounded right above her head.

Su Jinyue raised her head and saw Xiao Duo, who was still as handsome as ever in his guard outfit!

Her first reaction was not joy, but surprise, she lowered her voice, "Why are you here?!"

"If you are discovered, you will be in danger!"

Xiao Duo placed his bony fingers on his lips and made a hushing gesture to Su Jinyue, "Follow me."
