"I wonder where Ye Yuewan, who left with you, is now. Why are you back alone now?"
In the end, the queen couldn't help but ask Ye Qiansui!
Ye Qiansui had known that someone would ask about Ye Yuewan's whereabouts, so he had thought of an excuse early on!
"On the way there, the maidservant beside the Empress accidentally sprained her foot and was taken to the Imperial Hospital by my maidservant to get medicine!
Ye Yuewan might have had a stomach upset and soon left my side in a hurry. I waited for a while, but she didn't show up. I thought her condition was quite serious!
I changed my clothes and returned to the banquet!"
After Ye Qiansui finished speaking, Xiaoxiao walked away from outside. When she saw Ye Qiansui standing there, there was obvious relief on her face!
"Since the princess said so, you should look for Miss Ye near the rockery!"
The queen didn't know what Ye Yuewan was up to, so she could only give orders to the palace maid beside her!
"Yes! I'll go right away!"
The two maids beside the queen responded respectfully and left!
"Well, now that they've gone to look for someone, you should sit down and have some food!
These useless things actually disturbed you so much that you couldn't even sit down and eat your meal!"
After saying this, Queen Dowager Shao looked at the Queen with dissatisfaction, as if blaming her for not disciplining the servants well!
After seeing this, the Queen did not dare to speak out to defend herself. After all, the fact was that the people around her did not do things well, and also caused the people around Ye Qiansui to take care of her!
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but complain to Wu Lan in my heart!
I thought to myself, you can come up with any excuse, but you have to use such a stupid method!
Ye Qiansui had just sat down and taken a few bites when he saw the two palace maids sent by the Queen earlier walking in with embarrassed expressions on their faces!
Ye Qiansui knew that they should have found Ye Yuewan!
I just don’t know what kind of karma she has brought upon herself!
The two palace maids walked to the queen and whispered a few words in her ears, but the queen seemed not to hear clearly and looked at her in confusion!
She could only say it again in the Queen's ear!
Just when the queen wanted to suppress her annoyance and listen again because she couldn’t hear clearly!
But their little move was stopped by Queen Mother Shao!
"What happened to the young lady of the Ye family? What were you whispering to the Queen?
You are acting like a despicable person. Come to the front of the court and answer loudly!"
After Queen Mother Shao finished speaking, everyone's attention was instantly drawn to her!
Although the Queen didn't hear it clearly just now, she vaguely heard something like Ye Yuewan seemed to have been taken away by someone!
She was not so clear about the specific reason that made her switch positions with Ye Qiansui!
But just based on this, I know in my heart that this matter must never be said in public!
"Reporting to the Queen Mother, they just told me that they found Miss Ye and she is now recuperating in my palace!
It’s not a big deal, so don’t worry about it anymore.”
After hearing what the Queen said, Queen Dowager Shao looked at the two panicked palace maids beside her and knew that things were not that simple!
So I still insisted on calling them over for questioning!
The Queen saw that the Queen Mother was so persistent, and also saw the warning look from the Emperor!
He did not try to stop it. Even if he found out that something happened to Ye Yuewan, his son would just lose a concubine, and one who was not yet married!
But what I did today has already made the Empress Dowager very dissatisfied. There is really no need to provoke the dislike of the Empress Dowager and the Emperor because of her!
The two palace maids stood trembling in front of Queen Mother Shao, waiting to be questioned!
"I'm asking you, what exactly happened? Have you found the second young lady of the Ye family?"
When Queen Mother Shao's majestic voice sounded, one of the palace maids immediately knelt on the ground and began to reply stutteringly!
"Your Highness, I have been searching along the road to Fengyi Palace, but I haven't seen the Second Miss of the Ye Family!
In a desperate situation, he sought help from the guards on duty. Who knew they would find the second young lady, disheveled and murdered by the villain, inside the rockery!
"What did you say? How could this happen to my Wan'er? Where is she now? I want to go see her!"
The palace maid had just finished speaking when Chen Jiao, who was also waiting anxiously on the side, heard it and asked in a shrill voice!
"Mrs. Ye, don't worry. This incident happened at my birthday party. I will definitely investigate it and give you an explanation!"
Empress Dowager Shao's voice was filled with anger. This incident happened at her birthday party, which really made her face look dull!
Although Chen Jiao was worried about her daughter's condition, the Queen Mother had already spoken, so she didn't dare to move. She just stood there and cried in pain!
"The banquet ends here. There was an emergency today, so let's get together again later!
You all should go back first. Before the results of what happened today are known, I don't want to hear anything about what happened today from anyone else!"
Queen Mother Shao could only dismiss everyone first!
After hearing the Queen Mother's words, the noble ladies and daughters from official families present did not linger, but greeted the Queen Mother and left one after another!
When Ye Qiansui wanted to leave with everyone, he was stopped by the Queen!
“Princess Ninth Prince, please stay. The second young lady of the Ye family only happened after you separated!
You should wait until the matter is clear before leaving!"
Ye Qiansui did not refuse after hearing this. She had already guessed that the Queen would not let her leave so easily!
I don’t mind witnessing Ye Yuewan’s miserable state with them!
"Yes! Then I'll stay. I hope I can help my sister in some way!"
After Ye Qiansui finished speaking, he stood aside with an obedient look on his face!
Qin Shaoqing originally wanted to stay with her, but she refused!
This palace was always a place of controversy! Furthermore, it was not appropriate for him to be around for what was about to happen!
Just when Qin Shaoqing was struggling, Queen Mother Shao promised to protect Ye Qiansui's safety and send her back to the palace before dark. Qin Shaoqing had no choice but to leave!
The emperor handed the matter over to the queen, and only asked her to inform him of the results, and then left Shoukang Palace!
Side hall of Fengyi Palace!
Ye Yuewan curled up on the bed. She still couldn't understand why she became the one who had this happen?
Moreover, this matter was discovered by the guards who came to look for her, and now the news might have been known by the Queen!
That means that he will never be able to find wealth and honor in the future. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but hate Ye Qiansui even more!
If she hadn't stepped on his foot, causing him to accidentally inhale the drug, this wouldn't have happened to him today!
Just when Ye Yuewan was in a state of confusion, footsteps were heard outside the door!
Then, a group of people led by the Queen Mother walked in!
"Wan'er, my poor child, you have suffered!"
Chen Jiaoren arrived before she even started crying about what her daughter had experienced!
