Liang Wenkang stared blankly at all this. He never expected that Queen Xiao would actually hit Liang Nihuang.

He let go of Chu Ling, rushed to Liang Nihuang, and helped her up from the ground.

"Nihuang, are you okay?"

Liang Nihuang sobbed softly and raised her bruised wrist that was bleeding: "Father, it's bleeding, it hurts..."

Liang Wenkang was so distressed that he quickly sent someone to call the imperial doctor.

Chu Ling also came over to check Liang Nihuang's injuries.

Liang Nihuang cried pitifully and clutched Liang Wenkang's sleeve tightly.

She looked at Queen Xiao with eyes full of panic.

Queen Xiao was so angry that she almost vomited blood. She opened her mouth and explained to Liang Wenkang: "Your Majesty, this stinky girl said something on purpose to anger my concubine."

"She is scheming against me, don't believe her... She clearly still hates me in her heart, she is taking revenge on me."

Liang Nihuang burst into tears. She shook her head in fear: "No, I didn't. Mother, my son and I are all injured. How can you still say these words to maliciously slander my son?"

"Mother, you are so cruel to my son. I really wonder if you are my biological mother? How can any mother treat her child so cruelly?"

Queen Xiao's face turned pale, and she looked at Liang Nihuang with fear in her eyes.

She immediately raised her voice and shouted: "Liang Nihuang, what are you talking about? If you continue to distort the facts like this, do you believe that I will strangle you to death right now?"

She looked at Liang Nihuang with an extremely fierce look, and her voice was full of threats.

Liang Nihuang was so frightened that she shook her body and threw herself into Liang Wenkang's arms.

"Father, my mother and queen are so fierce, and my sons and ministers are so scared!"

Liang Wenkang quickly hugged Liang Nihuang and calmed her down softly. Then he turned to look at Queen Xiao, his eyes full of coldness.

"Xiao Dai, how long will you continue to fool around?"

"Nihuang was injured and bleeding, but you didn't say a word of concern. Not only that, you actually threatened Nihuang in front of me? Is there a mother like you?"

"Is there really something you're hiding from me?"

Queen Xiao's heart suddenly jumped, and she quickly shook her head and explained: "No, no, I have nothing to hide from Your Majesty..."

She was so flustered that her words were stumbling, and she could hardly form a complete sentence.

Chu Ling stared at Queen Xiao's strange expression, her eyes flashing slightly.

There seems to be something wrong with Queen Xiao's reaction.

She seems to be scared?

No, it's not fear, it should be fear.

There is clearly something wrong with this!

Could it be that there really is some ulterior secret in this?

The imperial doctor rushed over quickly.

He quickly bandaged Liang Nihuang and applied ointment.

Liang Wenkang was sure that the wound would leave no scar, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

His attitude towards Queen Xiao gradually cooled down.

"I still have things to deal with, so I won't accompany you back to the palace. You can go back and rest by yourself."

"There are a lot of rumors about you outside, so don't wander around and cause new troubles. Just stay in Fengyi Palace and wait for Zhao Qi's investigation."

After Liang Wenkang said this, he didn't look at Empress Xiao again.

He gave Chu Ling and Nihuang a few words, then shook his sleeves and left angrily, ignoring Queen Xiao's pleas.

Empress Xiao was also invited back to Fengyi Palace by the imperial guards.

When leaving, Queen Xiao glanced at Liang Nihuang with great indignation.

Liang Nihuang raised his eyebrows and smiled smugly at her: "Queen mother, please rest and recuperate. Don't make your body angry, otherwise, you will lose more than you gain."

Queen Xiao was so angry that her body couldn't help but tremble violently.

She gritted her teeth and said: "I have really raised a good daughter. Liang Nihuang, since you have broken your face and want to fight me to the end, I will never be soft-hearted towards you in the future. You give me I am waiting...one day, I will make you regret it."

Liang Nihuang smiled mockingly: "It sounds like you were merciful to me before. If you still had half of feelings for me, you wouldn't have let Xiao Guozhang poison me. As early as the moment I was poisoned , I will treat you as my mother-in-law and die."

Queen Xiao laughed angrily and kept nodding her head: "Okay, it's really good! In that case, let's wait and see."

She turned around and left angrily.

Liang Nihuang stared at the figure of Queen Xiao leaving angrily. She suppressed the smile on her lips and her face became calmer little by little.

A bit of confusion flashed in her eyes, and she murmured in a low voice: "Mr. Wan, tell me, is there a possibility that I am really not Queen Xiao's biological child?"

Chu Ling was startled and looked at Liang Nihuang in surprise: "Did you discover something?"

Liang Nihuang shook her head: "It's just a feeling. I seem to have never experienced the so-called mother-daughter affection from her. Now that I think about it carefully, her occasional warmth towards me in the past seems to have been deliberately pretending. Show it to your father."

As long as her father is present, her mother will treat her very well, with the kind of pampering that makes her afraid of melting when she holds it in her mouth, and she is afraid of losing it when she holds it in her hand.

But, as long as the father leaves.

The queen mother will seem to be a different person.

She would no longer smile at her, play with her, hold her in her arms, tell her stories, or hold her hand tenderly.

——

Yun Luan has been recuperating in the Guozhang's Mansion these days. Xiao Tingyan has cut off all news from the outside world. Yun Luan lives in a haze, except eating and sleeping, and does not interfere with anything outside.

Therefore, she had no idea that Liang Yuhuang had been imprisoned in a prison, was poisoned, and was about to die soon.

Until Xiao Guozhang looked a little anxious and brought someone over to find Yun Luan.

Only then did Yun Luan learn that the current city of Kyoto was already in a state of turmoil because of Emperor Liang Yu.

Emperor Liang Yu was not only deposed as crown prince, he was even thrown into a prison and poisoned.

Xiao Guozhang asked Yun Luan about his injury with concern.

Yun Luan replied truthfully: "After these few days of recuperation, my injury is almost healed. Sir, if there is anything you need me to do, I will naturally be obliged to do it."

Xiao Guozhang's face showed a hint of joy.

"I knew you were extremely loyal to me."

"Don't mention it yet, I do have something I need you to do."

Yun Luan raised his eyebrows and looked at Xiao Guozhang.

"Master Zhang, please tell me directly. As long as I can do it, I will definitely help you accomplish this."

Xiao Guozhang asked everyone else to retreat, leaving only the two of them in the room.

He leaned a little closer to Yun Luan and murmured in a low voice: "The deposed prince is now in danger, and I don't know whether he will live or die. I feel really uneasy."
