After breakfast the next day, Jiang Zuiyao planned to go to the North Courtyard. She had been thinking about the child Shao Heng and didn't know what was going on now.

But when she was halfway there, she heard someone calling her: "Madam, please stay!"

Hearing the sound and looking over, he saw the servant guarding the door.

When the servant ran to his side, he said impatiently: "Madam, please go to the door of the mansion and have a look. Someone is coming from the palace."

Jiang Zuiyao asked in confusion: "What are the people doing in the palace doing?"

The servant shook his head: "I don't know, I just heard the eunuch in the palace asking you to go quickly."

I looked in the direction of the North Courtyard and thought about going to see what was going on. It would not be too late to go to the North Courtyard.

When Jiang Zuiyao arrived at the door, he saw Shao Jiang and Eunuch Cui standing together and talking. Eunuch Cui hurriedly came over when he saw Jiang Zuiyao and said: "Madam, you are here. You will go into the palace with me."

"Enter the palace? What are you doing in the palace?" Jiang Zuiyao asked doubtfully.

Eunuch Cui said with an anxious look on his face: "The Queen Mother has summoned you for something urgent, so there is no need to delay. Please follow me and leave quickly."

Jiang Zuiyao thought for a while, but she really couldn't guess what the Queen Mother wanted her to do. Shao Jiang on the side said: "Since the Queen Mother has summoned her, don't delay and go quickly."

Naturally, Jiang Zuiyao could not resist the order of the Queen Mother, so she could only follow Eunuch Cui to the outside of the palace, and when she crossed the threshold of the palace gate, Eunuch Cui said: "The Queen Mother only allows the young lady to enter the palace alone, and others do not have to follow."

Jiang Zuiyao turned around and saw that it was Eunuch Cui and Li Yan talking.

In this way, she glanced at Shaojiang subconsciously. She knew that Li Yan was Shaojiang's secret spy around her, and she seemed to be curious about why the Queen Mother summoned him.

He got into the sedan alone, and with Eunuch Cui saying "get up the sedan", he headed towards the palace.

The sedan chair moved so fast that when it arrived at the gate of the palace, the tired sedan bearers were sweating profusely and panting.

On the way to the Empress Dowager's bedroom, Eunuch Cui walked very fast. Jiang Zuiyao said, "Eunuch, please go slower, I can't keep up."

Eunuch Cui said anxiously: "Madam, the Queen Mother has told you that you are in an emergency, so I don't dare to delay."

This made Jiang Zuiyao even more puzzled. What urgent matter did the Queen Mother have?

After entering the bedroom, Jiang Zuiyao saw the Queen Mother lying on the imperial concubine chair, with the Seventh Princess kneeling at her feet. The Seventh Princess burst into tears and begged: "Queen Mother, I beg you, please give me the child back."

.”

The Queen Mother just lay there with her eyes closed and ignored the Seventh Princess, as if she didn't hear her.

Jiang Zuiyao's heart suddenly trembled. Could it be that the Queen Mother sent her here because of the Seventh Princess's child?

At this time, Eunuch Cui stepped forward and reported, "Queen Mother, the eldest young lady of the Shao family has arrived."

The Queen Mother slowly opened her eyes and glanced at Jiang Zuiyao. Jiang Zuiyao saluted and said, "I am here to see the Queen Mother."

At this time, the seventh princess was seen crawling to Jiang Zuiyao's feet, grabbing her arm and begging: "Jiang Zuiyao, I beg you, please help me persuade the Queen Mother to return my child to me.

"

Jiang Zuiyao was startled and looked at the seventh princess who was in tears. She hurriedly supported the seventh princess and said: "Princess has a distinguished status. I cannot bear your kneeling. Please get up quickly."

The seventh princess shook her head crazily, clutched Jiang Zuiyao tightly and cried: "I know you are a good person, I beg you, please help me! The Queen Mother has always liked you, I beg you, let the child be returned after the elimination

I, I beg you!"

The seventh princess's child has been staying in Zuiyao Pavilion. Originally, it was said that the seventh princess would go to Zuiyao Pavilion for confinement, but the seventh princess delayed going and later took advantage of her absence to take the child away in a hurry. During this period, there must be

Something happened.

Jiang Zuiyao looked at the Seventh Princess who had lost a lot of weight and her face was pale and bloodless. She knew that she had not taken good care of herself during the confinement period. Now that the Queen Mother was there, she could only comfort her: "Seventh Princess, you get up first, and you have to tell me

What happened to me?"

Just as the Seventh Princess was about to speak, the Queen Mother ordered: "Eunuch Cui, please send the Seventh Princess back to the Prime Minister's Mansion."

"No! No!" When the seventh princess heard this, she seemed to be crazy. She let go of Jiang Zuiyao and kowtowed to the Queen Mother: "Queen Mother, I beg you, you have always loved me the most, you can't do this to me, I

Please, give me the child back, I beg you!"

The seventh princess's forehead hit the ground again and again. When she finished speaking, her forehead was already red from the knock. Jiang Zuiyao couldn't bear to look at it.

But the Queen Mother replied with an indifferent look: "Everything is for your own good. Go back. The Ai family has its own arrangements."

"Queen Mother! I beg you!"

The Queen Mother frowned irritably and winked at Eunuch Cui beside her. Eunuch Cui quickly called the guards in and dragged the seventh princess out.

Jiang Zuiyao pursed her lips in distress as she listened to the seventh princess's hysterical voice fade away.

The Queen Mother glanced at Jiang Zuiyao coldly and said in a cold voice: "What? Are you feeling distressed?"

Facing the Queen Mother's question, Jiang Zuiyao did not lie and nodded.

The Queen Mother smiled coldly: "If the Ai family hadn't liked your child, do you think you could still be standing here talking to the Ai family?"

Jiang Zuiyao suddenly raised her head and met the Queen Mother's eyes. She didn't know what the Queen Mother meant by her words.

Immediately afterwards, the Queen Mother gave the answer: "On the day of the princess's wedding, privately delivering the baby to the princess is a grave crime of deceiving the royal family!"

Jiang Zuiyao couldn't help but feel her heart tremble. According to her guess, the Queen Mother should know that the Seventh Princess was pregnant, but why did she say this?

Jiang Zuiyao knew that there were some things she shouldn't ask, but she still asked: "What did the Queen Mother do to the seventh princess's child?"

It was just a simple question, but it was enough to make the Queen Mother unhappy: "Don't ask about things you shouldn't know. Knowing too much is not a good thing."

He stood there and stared at the noble woman in front of him. The traces of time remained in the corners of his eyes. Although his age was not visible under his well-maintained skin, there was a hidden fear that made people shy away from getting close to her.

She wondered if the Queen Mother in front of her wanted to take away the seventh princess's child, so the seventh princess went to Zuiyao Pavilion to pick up her child in a hurry.

From today we can know that the seventh princess has not escaped from the clutches of the Queen Mother.

The Queen Mother ignored Jiang Zuiyao's thoughts and said calmly: "When we wait for Xian'er to come back later, we will go out to do something with him."

"What's the matter?" Jiang Zuiyao's voice was a little cold, no longer as approachable as it was at the beginning.

The Queen Mother slowly closed her eyes and replied lazily: "Go to Beizhen."

Suddenly, Jiang Zuiyao was slightly startled: "What are you doing in Beizhen?"

The Queen Mother still replied in an understatement: "Xian'er will explain it clearly to you. The Ai family has prepared everything you need on the way. Just go on your way."
