The smile on the queen's face faded slightly. She looked Hua Yuanzhao up and down for a moment, looking intimidating without being angry.

"Daughter of the Hua family, you asked for this marriage yourself in front of the palace."

"When I was young and ignorant, I realized the absurdity of love after I fell in love with the wrong person. Now that I have experienced life and death, I have thought it through." Hua Yuanzhao kowtowed again: "I no longer love Your Highness the Third Prince. I beg Your Majesty to grant my wish."

The marriage was granted in the beginning, and the cancellation of the engagement is also a grace.

Gu Changsu looked at Hua Yuanzhao who was kneeling on the ground. He didn't expect that her request was to resolve the engagement. He was stunned for a moment.

The joyful voice of the little girl in Pingxi Palace that year is still ringing in my ears.

——This subject is pleased with the Third Prince, and I beg the Emperor to grant my wish.

In just a few years, everything has changed.

When I came to my senses, I was overwhelmed with annoyance.

This fat pig, she was the one who insisted on sticking with him back then, and now she turns around and asks the Queen to cancel the engagement, where does this put his dignity? If anyone wants to mention it, he should be the one to do it!

Gu Changsu knelt down beside Hua Yuanzhao.

"Since I am no longer Miss Hua's ideal husband, forcing her to marry me may result in us becoming enemies. I beg your Majesty to grant my blessing."

Hua Yuanzhao curled up the corners of his pale lips, feeling that this was the most pleasant thing this man had said since they first met.

The queen looked at her from above, feeling only pity in her heart that the once famous noble lady had now become like this.

If the engagement is called off now, who would dare to marry her in the future?

"In that case...I will ask your Majesty for this grace."

She raised her hand and signaled the palace servant to help Hua Yuanzhao stand up.

"You are injured, so I won't keep you here in vain. Someone, come here."

The palace maid helped Hua Yuanzhao to stand up, smiled and led her to the table, asking her to write down the prescription.

Hua Yuanzhao was slightly surprised and looked at the queen in astonishment, but the queen was just talking to Gu Changsu and didn't seem to notice her.

Hua Yuanzhao smiled bitterly, thinking that she could not avoid this hurdle. After careful consideration, she wrote down a more common tonic recipe.

No merit or demerit.

In the Prime Minister's Mansion, in Zezhi Cottage, porcelain cups were scattered all over the floor.

Haitang knelt on the broken porcelain, and did not dare to talk back even when Hua Yuanshan pointed at her nose and scolded her.

"If you hadn't stopped me, she would have died in prison yesterday! How could she be acquitted!" Hua Yuanshan shouted angrily, and the wound on her face was pulled when she spoke, and she gasped in pain.

I didn't expect that even after this, Hua Yuanzhao could still save his life!

The maid Yulan trotted in and happily announced the news: "Miss, good news!"

"What other good news can there be!" Hua Yuanshan asked impatiently.

"The eldest lady took the initiative to cancel the engagement, and someone from the palace asked the master to come in to discuss the matter!" Yulan said in a low voice.

"Miss, the emperor invited the master to the palace, didn't he agree to cancel the engagement?" Haitang hurriedly coaxed her: "Perhaps in order to compensate the prime minister's mansion, the emperor will give you this engagement!"

After hearing this, Hua Yuanshan's mouth curled up slightly, and her anger instantly disappeared.

She glanced at Haitang who was kneeling on the ground and scolded him half-seriously, "How can you guess the will of the emperor?"

"Yes, I know I was wrong." Haitang bowed her head respectfully.

"Okay, get up." Hua Yuanshan said indifferently.

"There is also good news." Yulan said with a smile: "Auntie has invited Doctor Sun from Zhencaotang, and your face will be fine soon!"

Hua Yuanshan snorted disdainfully and muttered, "He's just a doctor. What's so great about him? He didn't even come until now!"

After she got into trouble, Aunt Su immediately sent someone to Zhencaotang to invite Doctor Sun, who had the best medical skills.

Unexpectedly, they just randomly sent another doctor to deliver the antidote, and said that the attending doctor Sun was not in the capital, and his attitude was so arrogant that it was outrageous.

As they were talking, a report came from outside, and Aunt Su personally led Doctor Sun in.

Doctor Sun is nearly 70 years old. What kind of situation has he not seen?

He ignored the mess on the ground and looked at Hua Yuanshan calmly: "Please untie the veil, Miss."

Hua Yuanshan lifted the veil, revealing her red, swollen and festering face underneath the veil. Yellow-green pus slowly seeped out as she moved.

"My Shan'er..." Aunt Su turned her head away reluctantly.

"I used the antidote that your Zhencaotang sent me, why am I not healed yet?" Hua Yuanshan asked irritably.

Haitang didn't dare to say a word - Miss, how can it be that she hasn't recovered yet? It's clearly worsened!

Doctor Sun said nothing, but slowly took out a silver needle from the medicine box and dipped it into the pus.

He inserted the silver needle into a translucent vial and stirred it, and the potion in the vial immediately changed color.

After carefully observing the color of the medicine, Doctor Sun continued to slowly pack up the medicine box.

Hua Yuanshan lost her patience and asked impatiently, "When will this poison be cured?"

Doctor Sun packed up the medicine box and then gave her a look.

"This poison is not the acacia seed from Zhencaotang. My ability is limited. I hope Miss will ask for help from someone else."

"What?" Hua Yuanshan stood up suddenly and murmured in disbelief: "How could it not be?"

"It must be that bitch who did something!" Aunt Su gritted her teeth sinisterly and came up with a guess in an instant.

…

On the other side, Hua Yuanzhao was escorted all the way back to his Linyuan Garden by palace servants. As soon as he entered the gate, he saw that the already dilapidated courtyard was in a mess.

Even the herbs that he had planted himself in the yard were uprooted!

The maid Fuling knelt beside the herbs with a small shovel in her hand, wiping her tears while working hard to dig holes and plant the herbs.

Hua Yuanzhao walked in and saw that her face was red and swollen, and her eyes were shaped like peaches from crying.

"What's going on?" Hua Yuanzhao asked with a frown.

"Miss?"

Fuling raised her head tremblingly, and when she saw her, she murmured incoherently: "Did you come back to life and take me away?"

"Miss, please wait for me. I can't go with you now."

Fuling sobbed and said, "Wait for me for a few days. I will kill Aunt Su and the Second Miss and then go with you!"

Hua Yuanzhao's eyelids twitched. How could this little crybaby say such cruel words in such a cowardly tone?

She bent down and gently poked the wound on her face, causing Fuling to sob in pain.

"pain……"

"If you still feel the pain, then it's not a dream." Hua Yuanzhao pulled her up from the ground in annoyance.

"But, but, miss, weren't you beheaded?" Fuling's eyes were filled with tears, and she grabbed Hua Yuanzhao's arm and refused to let go.

"The emperor has pardoned your young lady's death sentence! What happened? Who hit you?" Hua Yuanzhao asked.

"Aunt Su said that you were beheaded and it would be unlucky to keep the things here, so she sent people to take them all away!" Fuling said sobbingly.

"I am useless. I couldn't even keep the box that Madam left for you!"

Even she herself was beaten like this!
