Chapter 184: Called by the Queen

Xin Nianyan bit down on the rice Xiao Zhu fed her, chewed it carefully and swallowed it, and then glanced at her lightly.

"Naturally, she is not as delicate and frail as my mother, but she was still lying down for nearly half a year after ten lashes."

Since Zhang Yunhui received that whipping two years ago, she has been in bed for nearly half a year before she got up.

At that time, Gu Shuang was already in charge of the entire Prime Minister's Palace. She had no real power and could not make any waves in the palace. She could only make excuses and talk to others from time to time.

But compared to Ge Yingren, Xin Nianyan really hasn't lost.

"I remember there are still twenty lashes left in the family, Madam Gu. My mother is in good health now, so she should be able to bear the other twenty lashes."

As soon as these words came out, Zhang Yunhui turned pale.

"You kid, I just envy your body and bones, why are you so angry?"

She quickly covered her chest and coughed twice, "Cough cough...cough cough, my body is like this. If I take another whip, I'm afraid I won't be able to survive."

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to wipe away his tears, "How can you bear to leave my lonely Rou'er alone..."

Now that the prince is away, the mother and daughter are in decline, so they can only be cautious and compromise.

"Okay, let's eat. What does it look like to cry?"

The old lady frowned and scolded her before she became quiet.

Gu Shuang smiled gently and served the old lady some food to appease her mood.

Xin Nianyan struggled to eat the meal he was fed.

After returning to Yanyun Yuan, he told Xiaozhu not to eat in the main hall while she was recovering from her injuries, but to ask someone to bring it to her and scoop out the food herself with a porcelain spoon.

That night, Qin Han came to change her dressing and brought the follow-up of yesterday's group of assassins.

"The group of people you brought down woke up soon after they were brought back to Jinwuwei camp." Qin Han carefully wrapped bandages on her and said, "It's just that before the interrogation started, they committed suicide by taking poison."

Xin Nianyan frowned, "Who has the ability to raise so many dead soldiers in the capital?"

Qin Han shook his head, "The power in the court is intertwined, and there are many people who don't want the seventh prince to come back."

"The Queen's lineage and several princes are all possible."

After bandaging the wound, Xin Nianyan retracted her hand and looked at the bandage on her hand. She didn't feel any pain at all today.

"The clues are broken, and this matter will be settled here."

Qin Han glanced at her with some worry, "There are many such examples in Beijing, but they all ended without a cure."

"It's just that the story of you and Qiu Li'er rescuing the Seventh Prince has already spread to everyone."

Xin Nianyan understood and raised his eyebrows: "Are you worried that I will be hated by the people behind the scenes?"

"If something like this happens again in the future, remember the first thing to do is to set off the signal fireworks I sent you."

There are his people everywhere in the city. As soon as the fireworks go off, someone will naturally go to keep her safe.

"Okay." Xin Nianyan nodded honestly, not trying to be brave: "I'll note it down."

Keep it at hand on the backend, so you don’t need it in vain.

When Qin Han saw that she agreed, he left with peace of mind.

Dreaming in the moonlight, having a good night's sleep.

The next day.

Xin Nianyan injured his hand and had nothing else to do, so he simply lay on the bed and slept comfortably.

Knock knock knock——

"Miss, someone is coming from the palace."

Xiao Zhu's voice along with the knocking on the door woke Xin Nianyan up. What Xiao Zhu said went through his mind for a moment, and he woke up instantly after dozing off.

"Come in."

Xin Nianyan turned over and sat up. Xiaozhu then opened the door and came in with a basin of hot water to help her wash up.

"You said someone came from the palace?" Xin Nianyan asked with a frown.

Xiao Zhu nodded while changing her clothes, "Eunuch Cui, who is beside the queen, is here and said that the queen wants to announce your entry into the palace and thank you in person for your bravery in saving the seventh prince."

Xin Nianyan was stunned and felt a chill.

The current queen was the evil mother-in-law in her previous life.

From the beginning to the end, he looked down on himself and felt that marrying Qin Yan was a disgrace to the royal family, and he never looked down upon her.

Xin Rouer's unscrupulous use of those vicious and vicious methods against herself in the palace has nothing to do with her acquiescence, and even her willingness to see the results.

"It's inconvenient for me to be injured like this, so why don't you refuse?"

Xin Nianyan subconsciously didn't want to face that vicious old woman.

Xiaozhu was stunned for a moment, seeming to be thinking about the possibility of this matter.

Xin Nianyan sighed, "Forget it, it's the hand that's injured, not the leg. Just go ahead."

After resurrecting her life, she would not lose the courage to face the enemy. Eunuch Cui personally came to pick her up, so she might not be able to refuse so easily.

She could not escape the first day of the lunar month, but she could not escape the fifteenth day. She would eventually have to face the queen.

The soldiers will come to block it, and the water will come and the earth will cover it.

After washing, Xin Nianyan changed into a pair of barely thick autumn clothes, and followed the palace carriage into the palace with Shi Wu and Xiao Zhu.

The carriage slowly drove into the Zhuque Gate, and along the way there were strange and familiar palace wall scenes.

When Xin Nianyan was trapped in it in her last life, she was thinking that if she could escape from this splendid prison, she would be willing to do anything in exchange for it.

She closed her eyes, unwilling to recall those bloody memories.

"Eunuch, am I the only one meeting the Queen today?"

She asked Eunuch Cui who was following the carriage beside her.

Eunuch Cui outside narrowed his eyes at her and said in a sharp voice, "Miss Xin, it is your blessing that the Queen appreciates you."

Xin Nianyan frowned, "Where's Sister Qiu? She was there that day. Didn't I want to thank the person who saved the Seventh Prince that day?"

Eunuch Cui glanced at her impatiently, "Miss Xin, how dare we guess what your Majesty means? You will know when you get there."

I'm afraid this will give her a blow.

Xin Nianyan's forehead twitched faintly, he clenched his fists, and a strong hatred burst out from his eyes.

As expected, some people are born with the wrong destiny, and they are already so ill-intentioned even before they have had any contact with them in this life.

The carriage stopped at the gate of the inner palace. Xin Nianyan got out of the carriage and followed Eunuch Cui to the Queen's Fengyi Hall.

When getting out of the car, Shi Wu quietly made a gesture with her hand behind her back. The maid beside her received the message and hurriedly left without anyone noticing.

Xin Nianyan here followed Eunuch Cui all the way into Fengyi Hall.

She was lucky enough to live in this place for a few days when she was queen.

It was as extravagant and luxurious as ever, and even one more look at it gave her chills.

When entering the main hall, the maid at the door stopped the two people around her.

"Your Majesty said that I will only see Miss Xin alone, and no one else can come near her."

Shi Wu and Xiao Zhu both frowned and were about to speak, but Xin Nianyan raised her hand to stop them.

"You guys wait for me outside."

The two of them had no choice but to watch her go in worriedly.

She stepped into the palace, where the queen was sitting and waiting for her.

Xin Nian didn't even lift the end of his cigarette, but knelt down and bowed.

"My daughter Xin Nianyan has met the Queen."

The queen gently stroked her newly made nails and looked coldly at the kneeling woman below.

"Keep your head up."

Xin Nianyan then raised her face and looked over. Her face was bright, light, and generous, and she couldn't look away after one look at it.

Is this the woman who dares to cancel her marriage to the prince?

The queen narrowed her eyes and raised the corners of her lips to sneer.

"Get flat."

Xin Nianyan, right? If it weren't for her, that bitch in Zhaohua Palace might have died!

Bitch! She's so blind! She doesn't even know how to choose someone to marry a dragon or a phoenix. She canceled her royal son's marriage and went to marry that little bitch!

"I heard that when the Seventh Prince was assassinated, it was thanks to your bare hands that you saved his life. Are you the Seventh Prince's savior?"

She asked quietly, with a cold light in her eyes.
