As long as she can hold back these people in front of her now, she can find an opportunity to smooth things over with King Qin!
However, Liu Yingxue had a good idea, but Xia Luotong would not let her have her way!
"Miss Liu stopped us like this. Could it be that something happened to King Qin?" If something goes wrong with the King of Qin, then we really can’t explain it to the Emperor!"
"That's right! We should hurry up and find the whereabouts of King Qin! Miss Liu has blocked us many times. Could it be that she knows what happened to King Qin? Or is it Miss Liu who did it?" Xi Menghan echoed from the side, and her words were equally very serious. Straightforward.
"How could you slander me like this..."
Liu Yingxue wanted to delay further, but Wu Fengyan on the side had lost his patience.
He had a cold expression on his face and said in a cold voice: "Liu Yingxue, if you continue to delay and refuse to follow us, then I will have no choice but to ask the guards to tie you up!"
Liu Yingxue was shocked when she heard this. She obviously didn't expect Qi Wang Wu Fengyan to be so direct, and even wanted to be violent to herself? !
It seems that Prince Qi is indeed as ruthless as the rumors say, even more generous than Prince An!
"How could King Qi treat me like this..."
Liu Yingxue took two steps back, anxiously thinking of ways to continue delaying it. If she could drag everyone here, it would be a way. As long as King Qin finished and left, then she would have half succeeded...
Wu Fengyan saw through Liu Yingxue's intention at a glance, but before he could speak, the sound of footsteps coming from behind interrupted Liu Yingxue's words.
"The Queen Mother and Prince An have ordered that everyone here come with us!"
A group of palace guards suddenly appeared and directly stated their intention. Although the expression on their faces was serious, their eyes were clearly directed towards Liu Yingxue!
The orders from the Queen Mother and Prince An?
Could it be that something important really happened?
The ladies suddenly felt a little uneasy. Thinking of the King Qin mentioned just now, their eyes on Liu Yingxue became more and more subtle.
When Xia Luotong heard the names of the Queen Mother and Prince An, although he was a little surprised, he quickly felt relieved. If they were the people sent by the two of them, then the matter would probably be under control.
Not only Xia Luotong, but also Wu Fengyan and others around her also felt relieved.
But in comparison, Liu Yingxue felt as if she had fallen into an ice cellar at this time, her hands felt cold, and she was completely panicked!
The Queen Mother had always been lukewarm to her, and after Wu Zechen came back, the Queen Mother became even colder to her, not to mention Wu Zechen. She could now see the disgust for herself in Wu Zechen's eyes!
The guards sent by these two people are still looking at me with such an expression, which is definitely not a good thing!
And looking at the posture of this team of guards, I can't help but delay it any longer!
The reality was exactly as Liu Yingxue had guessed. The guards surrounded her without hesitation, and in the end she was forced to follow the guards' footsteps, all the way towards the direction she least wanted to go at this time. March!
At this time, Xia Luotong and others were following the guards, admiring Liu Yingxue biting her lips with a condensed look on her face as they walked forward along the road.
Looking at it like this, the location of the side hall is quite remote. At least ordinary guests cannot walk here.
After passing through the corridor, a group of people appeared in front of a side hall. However, what surprised Xia Luotong and others was that there were already many people in front of the side hall!
And among these people, they included the Queen Mother who just left the meeting early, and Prince An Wu Zechen!
In addition to the two of them, there were also a small number of officials and their families, but in comparison, the expressions on their faces were more frightened and uneasy, and they obviously regretted what they had experienced today.
Xia Luotong only had time to take a quick glance, and saw Wu Zechen walking up to meet her. He checked Xia Luotong carefully, and after making sure that she had no external injuries, he still asked worriedly. .
"Is there anything uncomfortable?"
"No, I'm fine. Don't worry, Your Majesty." Xia Luotong raised a reassuring smile.
When Wu Zechen saw it, he felt relieved. He took Xia Luotong's hand and walked towards the Queen Mother. He also said hello to the Queen Mother, and then stood aside quietly.
At this time, everyone was standing a little distance away from the side hall, neither stepping forward nor leaving.
The Queen Mother did not move, and no one present dared to move. They could only stand here with her. No one dared to make a sound. The scene with so many people was as quiet as an empty space without people.
Xia Luotong raised his eyebrows, listened for a while, and found that there was movement in the side hall. It was obvious that someone was inside, but no matter how much there was, he couldn't hear clearly.
The Queen Mother obviously didn't want others to hear what was going on inside, so she chose a distance that was not too far or too close. That is, Xia Luotong's five senses were sharp, so she heard some noises.
In fact, Xia Luotong had roughly guessed the situation in the side hall. Lindong had already discovered some small actions behind today's banquet and reported it to her. Otherwise, she would not have noticed these people's actions and made arrangements in advance. .
But after all, she didn't see the specific situation with her own eyes, so she couldn't make any inferences. She turned to look at Wu Zechen beside her, scratched his palm with her fingertips, and when she saw him turning to look at her, she turned to the side. The man on the other side pursed his lips, obviously asking about Wu Zechen's current situation.
Wu Zechen immediately lowered his head and leaned close to Xia Luotong's ear, and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Inside are the third prince, King Qin, and the second lady of the Xia family, Xia Zhilu."
An extremely brief sentence, but Xia Luotong understood the situation inside. As expected, the two people were forcibly brought together as the news came back from the inquiry!
An indistinguishable smile flashed across Xia Luotong's eyes, and then he calmly looked at the key figures in the field and found that their faces were not very good-looking.
Different from the helplessness and anxiety on the faces of those who were purely involved, the faces of these parties were gloomy. They obviously knew that this matter was brought to the Queen Mother today, and they were afraid that it would be dangerous...
"Why are you waiting here? Why don't you stop it?" Xia Luotong was very surprised. Normally, if something like this happened, someone should be sent to stop it. How could a group of people stand here and wait?
Although you can't hear anything from this distance, everyone is well aware of what is happening inside!
Look at the embarrassed looks on everyone's faces...
"The effect of the medicine is a bit strong, and the scene is not easy to control. I'm afraid it will cause an ugly scene, so the Queen Mother has sent someone to burn neutralizing medicinal incense inside." Wu Zechen explained softly.
