"Leading the charge?"

Mo Shi also heard this and raised his eyebrows slightly under his mask.

As soon as Li Hu saw his master's interest, he immediately told what he had heard before and added: "By now, the Queen should have taken Mrs. Gu to see His Majesty."

Gu Nanqiao knew very well what Queen Qin was thinking.

However, Queen Qin's wishful thinking may be miscalculated.

Because once Emperor Yong knew Mo Ziqian's true physical condition, he would never allow anyone to make a big deal out of it, as the royal family's face was at stake.

After Emperor Yong listened to Empress Qin's 'statement' expressionlessly, he asked Empress Qin to prepare for the birthday banquet of the Holy Aunt.

Gu Nanqiao was left behind.

"Is what the queen said just now true? Is your sister really crying to death? Is she seeking death and survival?" Emperor Yong sat at the table and looked at her with sharp eyes.

Gu Nanqiao, who had been kneeling on the ground for a long time, felt pain in his knees.

She certainly knew what Emperor Yong had in mind when he didn't let her get up from the beginning.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me. I don't want to lie. Jiaojiao was indeed frightened, but she didn't cry or seek death like the Queen said. My sister... she cherished her life."

"Do you mean the queen is lying?" Emperor Yong's voice darkened.

Gu Nanqiao had dealt with Emperor Yong for several years in his previous life. In order to better help Mo Ziqian, he even profiled and analyzed his character.

She knew very well that this man who was an emperor was a very wise and ruthless man!

"My daughter dare not, but my daughter also dare not lie in front of His Majesty."

Hearing Gu Nanqiao's trembling voice with a hint of fear, but suppressing the fear and speaking bluntly, made Emperor Yong's face look slightly better.

How could he not have someone monitor the situation on Nan Jiaojiao's end.

He knew everything they said and did.

"Then do you know what the queen means by asking you to come?" Emperor Yong sat on the chair and looked at her sharply and asked.

"know."

Gu Nanqiao paused for a moment, then said with a trembling voice, "However, I dare not do that. The Third Prince has a distinguished status, and his marriage can only be granted by His Majesty, and cannot be obtained by others just by making a fuss." Yes, Your Majesty will make a decision on this matter today."

Emperor Yong did not expect that this 'widow' from the countryside was actually somewhat intelligent.

"Get up."

A trace of gentleness returned to Emperor Yong's face.

"I don't dare, my lord... I was so anxious that I kicked the third prince, which caused the third prince to fall into the lake. Please forgive me, my lord. It was really unintentional."

Emperor Yong naturally saw what happened at that time.

The location of the Xieshui Pavilion is specially designed. From the pavilion, one can overlook the entire lake, but people by the lake may not necessarily be able to see what is going on in the Xieshui Pavilion.

Mo Ziqian's grandfather was once a minister of the Ministry of Industry, and it was he who originally designed the garden pavilion and lake in Weiyang Palace.

The birthday banquet of the Saint Aunt is held every year in Weiyang Palace.

Because of the rumors, Mo Ziqian sat on the bench in front of Emperor Yong for several days. After being prompted by his grandfather, he decided to take advantage of the saint's birthday banquet and the opportunity to go to the Xieshui Pavilion with Emperor Yong to view the scenery. The stone tablet written by Emperor Yong himself was used to make a fuss in order to gain favor in front of Emperor Yong.

Unexpectedly, Gu Nanqiao arrived in front of the stone tablet before him.

Then, Nan Jiali and Nan Jiaojiao ran out one after another, and what happened next was completely out of his control...
