Su Qing glared at Censor Yan’s daughter. Censor Yan’s wife was so frightened that she quickly came to plead for mercy.

“Your Majesty, please forgive my child for being young and speaking without restraint. Lan’ er, quickly apologize to the Empress.”

“Niangniang, this subject’s daughter was wrong.”

Although Yan Yulan was unwilling, she was frightened when she saw Su Qing’s anger. She had heard of the Empress’s power and was so frightened that she hurriedly kowtowed and admitted her mistake.

■■Tell me, where were you when she fell into the water just now? Did you push her?”

Su Qing didn’t let her go just because Yan Yulan apologized. Wu Wanrong’s fall into the water was strange. She was still chasing butterflies. Why did she suddenly fall into the water?

Yan Yulan looked like she wanted Wu Wanrong dead. She was suspicious.

“I… I was admiring the flowers!”

Yan Yulan panicked when she saw Su Qing refusing to budge.

“It’s you…You knocked me down.”

At this moment, Wu Wanrong also pulled herself together from her despair. She looked at Yan Yulan with grief and anger. Just now, she was chasing after the butterfly and didn’t pay attention. Someone hit her and fell into the water. When she fell into the water, she looked at the shore and saw Yan Yulan’s gloomy eyes. She wanted to kill her.

“You’re talking nonsense, you’re talking nonsense.

Yan Yulan saw Wu Wanrong pointing at her and crying.

“You jinxed my brother to death and even tried to kill me. Wu Wanrong, you’re

too vicious.”

Su Qing glanced around and asked the ladies,

“Whoever saw the situation just now can report to Manager Lin. I won’t say

your name.”

Yan Yulan panicked even more. She looked helplessly at the young ladies and madams around her with pleading eyes.

The ladies avoided her pleading eyes. The Empress would get to the bottom of this so that they couldn’t help Yan Yulan.

imperial Censor Yan’s wife panicked. She looked at the few madams she had a good relationship with and wanted them to testify for her daughter. If she harmed someone under the Empress’s eyes, the woman would die.

Imperial Censor Yan’s wife was suspicious of her daughter. She hated Wu Wanrong so much that she could do such a thing.

“Empress, the secret guards have come to report that it was indeed Miss Yan who knocked Miss Wu into the lake.”

Manager Lin came over to report that the people in this garden party were complicated. Many royal secret guards were scattered in the courtyard, hiding in corners not discovered by others.

These ladies couldn’t see them, but they could see their every move.

Two secret guards saw how Yan Yulan had pushed someone and reported it to the chief, who then reported it to the Emperor and Empress.

“Men, take Yan Yulan away and beat her to death.”

Xiao Zeyu ordered with a dark expression. To harm people in the Imperial Palace, such a vicious person must not be allowed to live.

Yan Yulan was so scared that her legs went weak when she heard that she was going to be beaten to death. She kowtowed desperately and begged for mercy.

“Spare me, Emperor, spare me, Empress.”

Yan Yulan was so regretful that she impulsively pushed Wu Wanrong into the water. She just wanted to make Wu Wanrong look bad, not kill anyone. Now, she had put herself in danger.

“Emperor, please spare her life.” Imperial Censor Yan’s wife kneeled on the ground with an ashen face to plead for her daughter. She knew that it was useless to plead for her daughter. She would not have brought her daughter here if she had known earlier.

She thought that she would have a chance to meet the royal family when she entered the palace. She did not expect her daughter to lose her life.

“Censor Yan failed to educate his daughter properly and is not worthy of being a minister. He is ordered to be removed from his position and demoted to a commoner.”

Xiao Zeyu’s face was as dark as water. He ordered to dismiss Censor Yan from his official position and expelled him from the capital. Censor Yan’s wife suddenly collapsed to the ground. Yan Yulan cried and begged for mercy. The royal guards dragged her away. She grabbed the ground with both hands but still couldn’t get up. She was frightened. At this time, she remembered Wu Wanrong.

“Sister Wanrong, save me.”

Wu Wanrong was shivering in the cold. When she heard Yan Yulan’s plea for help she turned her face away. Su Qing was delighted. This girl was not a saint.

Su Qing would not think she was kind if she begged for mercy. She would only think that she was hypocritical.

Yan Yulan had disrupted the garden party, and all the madams and young ladies were scared out of their wits. How could they be in the mood to admire the flowers?

“The garden is over. Go back!”

Su Qing coldly announced that there was no need to hold the next Hundred Flower Banquet.

Wu Wanrong’s mother thanked Su Qing and Xiao Zeyu and then went to thank

Li Daniu.

“I’ll ask the matchmaker to propose marriage later.

Li Daniu promised Madam Wu. After the scene, he felt even more pitiful for Wu Wanrong. She would only have a dead end if he did not marry her.

“There’s no need to hire a matchmaker. I’ll be the matchmaker.”

Xiao Zeyu spoke up from the side. This was what it meant to be able to reap the benefits. He and Qing ‘er had initially wanted to bestow Wu Wanrong with Li Daniu, and now it was the perfect time to push the boat with the current.

It was a great honor for the Emperor to grant a marriage. Wu Wanrong and her mother knelt to thank him. This could be considered a blessing in disguise. Seeing the tall and sturdy Li Daniu, she was delighted with her future husband. Xiao Zeyu personally arranged Li Daniu’s marriage. The wedding was grand, and after the couple married, they went to the palace to thank Su Qing and Xiao Zeyu for their marriage.

The couple loved each other and lived a very happy life.

Six years had passed in the blink of an eye. Xiao Zeyu was busy with government affairs every day. He couldn’t catch up with Su Qing’s footsteps. She would go out to tour the mountains and rivers every year and be gone for months at a time. Xiao Zeyu was highly envious.

Ziqi and Yun ‘er were about to turn 14. When a girl reached 14, she would be betrothed to someone else. When a boy reached 14, he could also start a family and a business. Xiao Zeyu had brought Ziqi to court daily since the beginning of the year. He deliberately let his son express his opinions when he approved the memorials. Ziqi had a unique understanding of government affairs. He also knew the responsibility on his shoulders and had always been very hardworking.

The triplets had no interest in government affairs. The eldest was obsessed with martial arts, the second was obsessed with calligraphy and Chinese painting, and his calligraphy was beautiful. The third was even more extreme. He liked to make traps and had to acknowledge Qin Tie as his master. Moreover, he was better than his master. The traps he made were very exquisite, and even Qin Tie praised his talent.

In their family, there was no such thing as a prince fighting for the throne. No one wanted the throne. The one who was affected was Ziqi. Only he silently took responsibility.

Yun’ er had grown up into a young lady. When she grew up, her facial features resembled Su Qing’s. However, Su Qing was too cold and aloof, while Yun er was as passionate as fire. Wherever she went, she brought laughter and joy.

Yun ‘er loved riding a horse and shooting arrows. Her double arrows were similar to Xiao Zeyu’s style in the past. She liked to wear red and ride a date red horse like a burning cloud floating freely.

Yun’ er did not like to study, and Su Qing never forced her. As long as she grew up happily, it was fine. This month was the season for tea leaves. Su Qing rushed to Anhui to check on the purchase of imperial tea. Without her at home, Yun’ er was even more accessible.

Today, she had disguised herself as a man and took her brother to the casino to gamble. The siblings had won so much that their hands were pale. When the casino boss saw that the two children had won so much of his money, he ordered people to keep an eye on them. He would snatch the money back when the two of them were alone..
