In Zichen Palace, Emperor Jingxuan is reviewing the memorial.

Eunuch Quan came to the door in a hurry: "Your Majesty, the slave has something to report!"

Ever since Emperor Jingxuan was poisoned last time and Eunuch Fu had done his job in escorting Princess Jingning, Eunuch Quan has almost become a transparent person by Emperor Jingxuan's side.

Now that he finally got the first-hand news, he naturally wanted to gain face in front of Emperor Jingxuan.

"What's the matter?" Emperor Jingxuan asked.

Grandpa Quan stepped inside, bowed and saluted, and said, "The Queen Mother has been assassinated!"

Emperor Jingxuan's face changed: "Is the Queen Mother injured?"

Eunuch Quan hurriedly said: "I heard that Lord Wei arrived in time, and the Queen Mother is fine."

Emperor Jingxuan felt relieved, and said lightly, "Back off."

The whole eunuch was taken aback.

This is the end?

Why don't you send him to meet the Queen Mother at the gate of the palace? Or wait until the Queen Mother returns to Yongshou Palace before reporting to His Majesty?

Eunuch Fu glanced at him lightly.

The whole father-in-law retreated unwillingly.

Emperor Jingxuan picked up the paperwork that had just been half-approved: "Xuan Weiting."

Wei Ting escorted the Queen Mother back to the palace, and when he heard that Emperor Jingxuan had summoned her, he came immediately.

"Your Majesty." Wei Ting saluted.

Emperor Jingxuan looked at the blood on his clothes and shoes, and asked lightly: "I heard that the queen mother was assassinated. You showed up in time and drove away the assassin. Can you recognize the identity of the other party?"

Wei Ting shook his head: "No, those assassins were very cunning. Seeing that they couldn't beat them, they fled away on their own. I was worried that it was a trick to divert the tiger away from the mountain, so I didn't dare to rush after them."

Emperor Jingxuan asked, "Why do you appear nearby?"

Wei Ting said seriously: "I met a brother from the Huguolong Temple at the door of a pharmacy in the evening. I heard that Abbot Yuan was ill, so I went with him to visit Abbot Yuan. We walked halfway , I heard the Imperial Guard shouting 'protect the Queen Mother'."

Emperor Jingxuan's expression didn't change at all: "I heard that you also saved Qin Canglan's granddaughter?"

Wei Tingjun's face sank: "It's too dark, I couldn't see clearly... I thought she was the empress dowager's maid... I knew she was..."

He didn't say anything later.

But with the regretful expression on his brows, anyone would have guessed that he didn't want to save the Qin family at all.

Emperor Jingxuan asked Wei Ting to go back first, and then called the commander of the Imperial Guard over.

"Can you find out who did it?" he asked.

The commander of the Imperial Guard knelt down and pleaded guilty: "If you go back to His Majesty...the clues are gone..."

Emperor Jingxuan frowned: "What do you mean no clues?"

The commander of the imperial guards bite the bullet and said: "After Master Wei and his men repelled the assassins, the two escorted the queen mother back to the palace first. I will put the corpses of the two assassins on the horse and plan to bring them back to see if their corpses are safe. I found some clues. But...but that group of people turned back and snatched the corpse away..."

A dark alley.

A carriage turned sharply and stopped, and the people in the carriage rolled down with a plop.

Immediately, he jumped up violently, pointing at a black-clothed masked driver and said, "Hey! Yuchixiu! Can you drive a car?"

Yu Chixiu hesitated and said, "I can't sit still, blame me!"

"Isn't that because you didn't untie me?"

"You won't relax?"

Of course Fusu will be loose, this kind of broken rope can't tie him up, but it's not home yet, he has to do all the acting!

Fusu is a dedicated secret guard who absolutely obeys his master's orders.

Yu Chixiu is different, he is used to cheating, cheating and playing tricks, he is lazy when he can, Wei Ting can't even see him, he is still acting like a fool!

"I'm leaving!"

Yu Chixiu threw the whip into Fusu's arms, and walked away swaggeringly.

Fusu looked at the person laying down the burden in disbelief: "Hey! Where are you going!"

Yu Chixiu had long since disappeared without a trace.

Fusu turned his head to look at the carriage.

Another corpse in the carriage also easily broke the rope with internal force, and tore off the black night clothes on his body, revealing a white clothes as clean as snow.

Then he put on the white hat and left without looking back.

Fusu gritted his teeth: "You are the only ones who can leave, right? I will leave too! I don't care!"

After that, he threw the whip on the ground fiercely, pulled his head, and went in another direction.

Ten seconds later.

He walked back with a dark face, picked up the whip, and drove the carriage back resentfully.

Su Xiaoxiao entered the palace again early the next morning to check the empress dowager's pulse.

After the assassination last night, Wei Ting escorted the Empress Dowager back to the palace, and when passing Zhuangyuan Street, Su Xiaoxiao stopped by to go home.

Since there was always Wei Ting, an "outsider", there was no private communication between the two.

The queen mother has been holding it all night, and she is about to go wrong.

"Eunuch Cheng, please take everyone out first, I'm going to heal the queen mother."

Su Xiaoxiao doesn't like to be disturbed when she treats illnesses. This is her long-standing habit, and the same is true for Emperor Jingxuan's treatment.

Everyone did not doubt him, and followed Eunuch Cheng out of the dormitory.

The queen mother sat on the phoenix bed, and while letting Su Xiaoxiao feel her pulse, she said lightly: "Tell me, what happened last night?"

Su Xiaoxiao looked innocent: "What's going on?"

The queen mother snorted coldly: "Don't play dumb for the Ai family, the Ai family has eaten more salt than you have eaten rice! When the Ai family was playing tricks, your parents were not even born yet!"

Su Xiaoxiao blinked.

Well, the sum of the previous life and this life is indeed not as big as the Queen Mother.

Su Xiaoxiao chuckled: "Did you see it?"

The queen mother looked disgusted: "With your acting skills, do you really think you are blind?"

But he was about to be blinded by this girl's hot-eyed acting skills.

The queen mother said lightly: "You also arranged the assassin, right? You are so courageous! How dare you assassinate the queen mother of a country!"

Su Xiaoxiao sighed helplessly: "Oh, Queen Mother, I actually have some difficulties."

The queen mother said coldly: "Everyone says so!"

Su Xiaoxiao said seriously: "Really, didn't you want to ask who the father of the big tiger, the two tigers and the little tiger is yesterday? Where did the little princess live all those years? In Wei's house."

The queen mother's face changed: "What?"

Su Xiaoxiao looked at her and said, "The father of the three children...is Wei Ting."

The queen mother sat up straight in shock: "Wei Ting?!"

Su Xiaomang said: "It's not what you think, Wei Ting is the nominal father of the three children. They are the flesh and blood of the little princess and Liulang of the Wei family."

Su Xiaoxiao told about the little princess being rescued back to Wei's house.

Although she had accepted it in her heart, knowing the whole truth, the Empress Dowager still felt a stabbing pain in her heart.

In the matter of the little princess, the Wei family did not have any fault, whether it was concealing the news of the little princess's life from her, or breaking up the marriage between the little princess and Liulang of the Wei family.

If it were her, she would do the same.

Old General Wei and Old Madam Wei just hoped that everyone would survive safely.

She is useless, unable to protect her own son, nor her daughter-in-law and grandchildren.

On this point, Su Xiaoxiao did not express any opinion.

It's hard to say that the Queen Mother didn't try her best in the past, maybe she also expected her youngest son to be so cruel.
