Chapter 37 Something is wrong

"Yes, slaves deserve to die."

The woman in black took out a thin silver needle from her boot and aimed it at her neck, trying to pierce it.

"boom."

The silver needle in her hand was knocked to the ground by the handle of a knife.

"Save your dog's life first, get out of the palace to recuperate."

After speaking, the woman on the high platform turned and left through the side door.

"Thank you master for not killing me!"

The woman in black kowtowed deeply again, then got up with difficulty and left step by step.

……

The next day.

Emperor Jiayan's birthday banquet.

I heard that the envoys from Nansang Kingdom and the fifth prince, Chu Qixian, had arrived in the capital the day before. They brought generous gifts and came to congratulate Emperor Jiayan on his birthday with full sincerity.

Emperor Jiayan was naturally Longyan Joyful, so he immediately arranged them in the Imperial Palace and gave them the highest treatment among the distinguished guests.

On the day of the birthday banquet, Tong Shiying was woken up early, and Nanny Sun patiently asked her to repeat all the etiquette and rules she had learned these days, and only after she was satisfied did she send someone over to wash and dress her up.

Let someone else clean and dress her up?

Unless that person doesn't want to live anymore.

Tong Shiying remained calm on the surface, but in her heart she was anxiously thinking of a way to get out.

Don't say that you can't let other people get close, even this banquet, she absolutely can't go.

Otherwise, it would be a waste of effort to pretend to be ugly all the time.

Before the maid who was about to serve came over, Tong Shiying suddenly bent down and held her stomach, with a painful expression on her face: "Oh, my stomach hurts so much, I can't do it, I'm going to the latrine."

As he said that, without waiting for their reply, he hurried out of the house, and as he walked quickly, he did not forget to tell him: "I may have spoiled my stomach, so you go first, don't delay the birthday banquet, let the empress dowager Don't worry, I'll pack up and go there by myself."

When everyone reacted, there was still Tong Shiying's shadow in the room?

Grandma Sun frowned, although she disapproved a little, but Tong Shiying had already run away, she had no choice but to take a group of maids with her for fear of delaying the time.

After they left completely, Tong Shiying slowly returned to the room.

She stayed in the room and didn't go anywhere, and Feng Feicheng didn't show up all day, but it's not surprising that he has always been elusive.

Originally thought that if she didn't show up at the banquet, the queen mother might send someone to look for her. She prepared a lot of excuses, but she didn't expect that there was no movement until the sun gradually set.

twilight.

Tong Shiying stayed in the room all day, seeing that there was still no movement, thinking that the banquet should have ended, she walked out of the room and walked around.

The Taihe Palace was much quieter than usual. When she came to the front hall, she saw Empress Dowager Liu sitting on a high chair, with a faint sadness between her brows, and the worry after the shock.

What happened?

Tong Shiying walked into the hall subconsciously, fearing that there might be an accident, so she still put on a "delicate" makeup today.

"Empress Dowager, today I..."

"Shiying is here."

Empress Dowager Liu patted the seat next to her, and said softly, "Come and sit."

There was no trace of blame on her face, and she didn't seem to intend to pursue it.

Since people don't pursue it, Tong Shiying will naturally not be stupid enough to continue talking about this topic.

"Empress Dowager, it seems that you are a little tired today, you should rest early, and Shi Ying will come back tomorrow to greet you?"

Hearing this, Empress Dowager Liu only slightly nodded her head in agreement.

Tong Shiying walked out slowly.

Seeing the Queen Mother's expression, it was obvious that something was wrong.

But she didn't ask hastily. It's better to keep the royal business out of the way.
