Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Seeing this, Jiang Peihuan felt even more helpless.

Xiao Bai didn’t look at Xiao Junhao but raised its head to look at Jiang Peihuan.

Although Xiao Bai had been tamed considerably, it was still, after all, a wolf. Jiang Peihuan didn’t dare to take it to the palace. After thinking for a moment, Jiang Peihuan gently stroked Xiao Bai’s head and softly said, “Xiao Bai, 1 have important matters to attend to and I can’t take you.”

“In a few days, I’ll take you hunting outside the city.”

Upon hearing the first part, Xiao Bai lowered its head in disappointment. But at the latter part, it perked up with excitement.

Seeing this, Jiang Peihuan laughed and petted it, then turned to Yue Er and said, “Take it back and give it some treats.”

“Yes.”

After calming Xiao Bai, Jiang Peihuan and Xiao Nanye boarded the carriage to the palace.

Both headed straight to Kun Ning Palace.

Upon seeing Xiao Nanye following Jiang Peihuan, the Empress’s eyes were filled with amusement. “I just wanted Huan Er to come for a chat, and you came too?”

“Imperial Sister-in-law, just treat me as if I’m not here, I won’t interrupt.”

“You really are…”

Hearing Xiao Nanye’s words, the Empress paused, her smile deepening.

“Your Royal Majesty, don’t mind him. Did you call me today for a particular matter?”

“I did call you for something, but it’s not urgent. Sit and rest first.”

“Nanny, bring the milk for the Queen.”

The Empress still remembered that Jiang Peihuan liked milk and had it prepared in advance.

Seeing this, Jiang Peihuan didn’t say anything, quietly sipping her milk.

After more than an hour, the Empress got to the point.

She gestured to the nanny and whispered, “Bring everything here.”

“Yes.”

Moments later, Jiang Peihuan saw the table in the inner hall filled with various gifts. Seeing these items, her eyes widened in surprise.

Catching her surprised look, the Empress softly said, “These are gifts sent by the Li household.”

That is, from Madam Li.

After a moment’s silence, Jiang Peihuan spoke directly, “Your Royal Majesty, did you call me to see if there’s any issue with these gifts?”

“Yes.”

Hearing Jiang Peihuan’s words, the Empress nodded and smiled, “Huan Er, you truly are sharp-witted.”

“If I called for the imperial doctor, it might create complications. So, 1 had to bring you into the palace. Thank you for coming.”

“Your Royal Majesty, you’re too kind. I should thank you properly for the matter regarding the Fourth Princess.”

Speaking of the Fourth Princess, the Empress didn’t say anything more.

Emperor Qi Ming originally wanted to betroth the Fourth Princess to Jiang Changbai and planned to discuss it with Jiang Hong.

Subsequently, Xiao Nanye sought the Empress.

No one knew how the Empress arranged it, but the secret meeting between the Fourth Princess and someone from the Zhao family was discovered by palace servants.

Even if Emperor Qi Ming valued his daughter highly, he felt too embarrassed to mention this incident.

He immediately reprimanded Concubine Meng and arranged for the Fourth Princess to be married off to the Zhao family.

Setting her teacup aside, Jiang Peihuan began examining the pile of supplements on the table.

These supplements were top-notch tonics. However, as she inspected, she couldn’t help but frown—there was something unclean on every item.

By the end of her examination, Jiang Peihuan’s eyes were darkened.

“Your Royal Majesty, these items should be discarded immediately.”

Though the Empress had already anticipated this, a trace of sadness appeared in her eyes upon hearing it.

Although she had already guessed the result, when she really heard this, the Empress’s eyes still revealed a bit of sadness.

“I overthought things.”

She had believed that Madam Li held some genuine affection for her. After all, she was her maternal aunt and had been called ‘mother’ for many years.

“Your Royal Majesty, you’re pregnant now. Please don’t get upset.”

Seeing the Empress’s displeasure, Jiang Peihuan softly advised.

Upon hearing Jiang Peihuan’s voice, the Empress composed herself and then said, “Huan Er, thank you for this.”

“Your Royal Majesty, shouldn’t you inform the Lord Li? After all, he is your biological father.”

“We cannot tell him.”

The moment Jiang Peihuan spoke, the Empress responded firmly.

Seeing the confusion in Jiang Peihuan’s eyes, the Queen smiled softly, “Huan Er, not everyone is as fortunate as you, having a family to rely upon.”

“Informing my father will only add to his worries. He can’t abandon my mother, nor can he turn against my external family.”

With those few words, Jiang Peihuan understood where Madam Li’s confidence came from.

“Your Royal Majesty, even if you don’t inform Lord Li, doing nothing will only embolden her further. I’ll handle this.” 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮

“Imperial Sister-in-law, it’s fine if you don’t tell the Lord Li about this. However, doing nothing will only embolden her further. Therefore, I will take care of this matter.”

Xiao Nanye, who had been silent all this while, suddenly looked at the Empress and spoke.

Hearing Xiao Nanye’s words, the Empress quickly replied, “Nanye, don’t act recklessly.”

“Imperial sister-in-law, don’t worry. I know what to do.”

“It’s getting late, you should rest.”

After saying this, Xiao Nanye took Jiang Peihuan and left.

“Why do you keep staring at me?”

In the carriage, Xiao Nanye suddenly addressed Jiang Peihuan.

Hearing his voice, Jiang Peihuan laughed, leaning into him and softly said, “1 thought the King Cheng was cold-hearted to everyone.”

“After the Imperial Mother passed away, the Emperor kept me close, fearing I’d lack care. However, he was always busy and never had time for me. The Great Empress Dowager took every opportunity to try to kill me. Only the Empress looked after me.”

“Although Imperial Sister-in-law took care of me because of Imperial brother, but I still remember her kindness.”

Jiang Peihuan listened quietly as Xiao Nanye shared his story.

After he finished, she softly asked, “So, how does King Cheng plan to help the Empress seek justice?”

“I will give them a taste of their own medicine.”

That night, at the Li Mansion.

“Madam, it’s terrible! The second young miss had an accident…”

Madam Li was roused from her sleep by a frantic knocking at her door.

By the time Madam Li, assisted by her maidservant, stepped out, she saw her daughter’s maid, eyes filled with tears.

“Why are you shouting in the middle of the night?”

“Madam, the second young miss keeps vomiting blood, you…”

“An Er?”

Hearing the maid’s words, Madam Li’s face turned pale. She rushed to the second young miss courtyard.

When she reached the door, what met her eyes was her daughter, continuously vomiting blood..
