"Ah Zhu, you got up just in time. I just brought your food in, Ah Zhu, wake up and come over to eat."

Dongfang Ye brought in some food. The moment he saw Xia Sizhu, the corner of his mouth curved up into a brilliant smile.

"Alright." Xia Sizhu agreed and then sat down at the table, helping Dongfang Ye set up the dishes.

Then, the two of them sat down and ate in silence. At this moment, their smiles were very sweet.

After the incident where they were poisoned, their relationship deepened. Even when they ate an ordinary meal, they were still very fond of each other.

Halfway through their meal, the sound of knocking on the door came from outside.

"Come in." Xia Sizhu's eyes flashed as she spoke.

The one who pushed the door open was still that weak little palace maid.

"Why is it you again? You were pushed over again? " Xia Sizhu's eyebrows arched as she spoke indifferently to the palace maid in front of her.

The palace maid lowered her head and didn't say anything, but Xia Sizhu knew that she had guessed correctly.

"Speak, why have you come this time?" Xia Sizhu indifferently said as she picked up a piece of the dish.

"The Emperor said that he found the person who killed the Jade Concubine and sent people to assassinate her. He wanted to invite her to move to the main hall."

The palace maid lowered her head and timidly said. Although her courage had increased compared to before, she still didn't dare to meet Xia Sizhu's eyes.

Xia Sizhu's eyes were too sharp. The moment she saw them, she would panic and then make a mistake. Therefore, she could only lower her head and avoid looking into Xia Sizhu's eyes.

"You found it?" Xia Sizhu's eyebrows shot up. He really found it?

The person who killed her mother and assassinated her was the empress, and the empress had Wing King behind her. Did he really fall out with Wing King, or did he just randomly find someone to take the blame?

"Ah Zhu, let's go take a look." Dongfang Ye looked at Xia Sizhu as the corner of his mouth slightly rose, and lightly said.

"Alright." Xia Sizhu nodded. She was very curious as to what the emperor was doing.

If he really dealt with the empress and had a falling out with the Winged King, then she would be willing to acknowledge him as her father.

"Young Mistress, where are you going?" As soon as Xia Sizhu and Dongfang Ye left the room, they went to greet Madam Gu.

Lady Gu looked at the palace maid behind the two of them and asked.

"The Emperor said that he found the person who killed my mother and assassinated me. Let us go take a look."

When Xia Sizhu saw the faint smile on Lady Gu's lips, she was quiet and beautiful just like an ordinary girl.

"Is that so? I'll go look for my husband and have a look with you. " A smile of unknown meaning appeared on Madam Gu's lips when she heard this.

With that, he turned around to look for Gu Tian. The corner of Xia Sizhu's mouth raised as she watched Madam Gu turn around.

His mother should have been very happy to have them by her side previously. To be able to have such a person by her side was a great blessing.

Soon, Madam Gu and Gu Zhong came over. Seeing this large family, Xia Sizhu's lips curled up, "Let's go!"

The palace maid frowned as she looked at Gu Zhong. When did this person appear? Why didn't I see him before?

Ah!" "Oh!" Hearing Xia Sizhu's words, the palace maid fell into a momentary daze and quickly adjusted herself.

The group of people followed the palace maid into the main hall, which was already filled with people.

As soon as Xia Sizhu appeared in the main hall, the emperor's eyes lit up. His daughter was truly becoming more and more outstanding.

Just standing there made others unable to shift their gaze away.

The Wings King's cold gaze was fixed on Dongfang Ye. There was clearly no lack of medicinal herbs, so why was he still able to stand here?

Judging from the looks of it, the poison should have been solved already.

The Wings King's face became colder and colder, and the people beside him started to urge him to move further away without leaving a trace.

"Greetings, your Imperial Majesty." Xia Sizhu and the rest of the group walked to the entrance of the great hall and bowed together to the emperor.

"Escort, this is?" Only then did the emperor's gaze fall upon Gu Zhong, who had suddenly appeared.

Gu Zhong frowned. Only now did he realize his existence from the moment he entered the door. Was he really that easily overlooked?

"He's my eldest son." Gu Tian replied blandly.

The old Prime Minister swept his gaze across Gu Tian, "General Gu, how many children do you have?" Say it, don't have a son suddenly next time. "

First came a son, now a son, and then a daughter. An old man like him couldn't stand to be frightened.

"Just two." Gu Tian said softly without even looking at the prime minister.

The face of the prime minister instantly turned ugly. If he didn't look at the person, wouldn't he be looking down on him?

The prime minister was infuriated. He rolled up his sleeves and was about to rush forward to beat him up, but he was stopped by someone beside him.

"The old prime minister is in the main hall." The person holding him glanced at the emperor, who was sitting on the throne, and said in a low voice.

The old prime minister looked at the emperor, then looked at Xia Sizhu before putting his hand down.

Not to mention the fact that the emperor had protected them, even if Xia Sizhu had given him those pills, it wouldn't be good for him to cause a ruckus with Gu Tian.

Gu Tian had taken Xia Sizhu as his young master, so he was making a ruckus with her.

After the ceremony, the six of them stood to the side. Feeling the gaze of the Wings King, Dongfang Ye hugged Xia Sizhu's waist and coldly replied.

After stabilizing herself, Xia Sizhu turned to look at the kneeling empress.

The empress also raised her head to look at Xia Sizhu, her eyes filled with cold hatred and unwillingness.

The more the empress glared at him, the more brilliant the smile on Xia Sizhu's face became.

Empress, you also have today. Before, you relied on the support of the Winged King. He was still a failure!

It looks like you won't be able to escape from me today. After doing so many bad things, you will still have to settle the debt.

Madam Gu looked at the empress on the ground in a sorry state, a mocking smile on her face. So what if you have the Winged King?

Very quickly, two figures appeared at the entrance of the hall. There was not the slightest change in the expression on the face of the Western Tomb North Hall.

But when he saw the empress kneeling on the ground, his lips curled up into a cold smile.

Xi Ling Yan's face, which was originally devoid of worry, was now filled with worry.

Xi Ling Yan looked at the Queen kneeling on the ground, and the corner of his mouth raised into a powerless smile.

He had long ago advised his mother not to engage in a fight with Xia Sizhu and not to have murderous intent towards her. His mother simply wouldn't listen.

Now that he was brought to the Main Palace by royal father, what could he do?

"We will participate, royal father." Xi Ling Yan had a complicated expression on his face as he followed the Western Tomb Beitang to the main hall. After giving his respects, the Emperor told them to get up and they stood to the side.

The corners of Xia Sizhu's mouth curled up into a smile as she looked at the Western Tomb North Hall.

The Western Tomb North Hall returned a smile. Dong Fang Ye unhappily raised his brows and turned his body to block the line of sight of the Western Tomb North Hall.

The Western Tomb Beitang smiled at Dongfang Ye, "The poison cleared up?" After that, he swept his gaze over Dongfang Ye.

"Humph!" Dongfang Ye coldly turned his face away. He harrumphed and did not reply.

The Western Tomb North Hall looked at Dongfang Ye's expression again. He seemed to be in good spirits, probably clean.

"Empress, do you know your crime?" The emperor looked at the crowd. Since everyone had gathered, there were some things that they could begin.

"Chenqie doesn't know!" The empress's expression remained unmoved, because she believed that the Winged King would help her.
