Recalling the time before, when the emperor summoned her to the Hall of Mental Cultivation to discuss matters, and the queen was also there, Jiang Yue noticed that the queen was quite critical of her. How could it be "appreciation" as the prince said just now?
Jiang Yue, who was sitting in the carriage, sneered.She knew that the queen calling her into the palace this time must be about Gu Mo.

But the last assassination in the Palace of Preserving Harmony, if Gu Mo hadn't rescued her, the person who was injured or even assassinated would have been Jiang Yue!She wasn't sure if the queen was involved in that incident, but the prince must have been involved.

Whenever she thought about this incident, she felt a little scared, and it was even worse at this time.

She knew that if the queen wanted to kill her today, she could arrange everything like last time, it would be a breeze.

But this time, she entered the palace alone without Gu Mo's company...

The more she thought about it, the more frightened Jiang Yue became, her heart beating like the wheels of a carriage, feeling uneasy.

Quietly opening the curtain on the left, Jiang Yue and the accompanying guards looked at each other for a moment, carefully observing the surrounding eaves with peripheral vision, but found nothing.

She smiled awkwardly at the guard.

"It's a bit stuffy in the carriage, I need to breathe." Jiang Yue smiled sweetly, and the guard was fascinated by the smile for a moment, as if he believed what Jiang Yue said, his serious expression just now loosened a lot.

After putting down the curtain, he slightly frowned between Ye's eyebrows.

This prince is really!She is a weak woman, neither martial arts nor powerful.Since he got on the carriage to enter the palace, he would definitely not be able to escape, so why make it as if he was escorting a prisoner or being a hostage...

"Hostage." Jiang Yue murmured, sitting in the carriage now, she felt that she was really taken as a hostage by the Queen.

No, she can't sit still.There was nothing on the left, so she planned to open the curtain on the right to see if Song Yan followed her quietly.

Now Jiang Yue can only pray that Song Yan will follow quietly, or if she finds out about this, she will go back and report to Gu Mo.

Grasping the curtain with her hands, Jiang Yue feared that she would look at the guards again and find her sneaking, and she was always trembling in her heart.

With trembling hands, she slowly opened a corner of the curtain, revealing half of her head. Although she looked a little frightened, she was really cute.

Seeing that there was no one here, Jiang Yue was pleasantly surprised, and mustered up the courage to open all the curtains again.

Looking carefully around, Jiang Yue still couldn't see Song Yan nearby.

Due to the limited viewing angle in the carriage, Jiang Yue wanted to stick her head out a little to have a look, but it was too easy for the attendants to notice that it was weird.

While hesitating, the prince suddenly stepped forward on a horse and walked side by side with her carriage.

"What? Miss Jiang is not used to riding in the East Palace's carriage?"

Jiang Yue suddenly came back to her senses with a calm expression.

"No, Your Highness is serious. This East Palace carriage is not comparable to the carriage in my house. It's just that the servant girl feels a little stuffy inside after sitting for a long time, so she wants to take a breath." Jiang Yue said calmly.

Don't play tricks on the prince, the prince thought.

"So that's the case, okay." The prince smiled faintly, acquiescing to Jiang Yue's behavior.But he still walked side by side with Jiang Yue's carriage, and must wait by her side.

Jiang Yue forced a smile and asked, "Aren't His Royal Highness tired? Why don't you get in the carriage?"

While talking, Jiang Yue pointed to the empty carriage behind.She really thought it was strange that the prince would not sit in a carriage, and wanted to monitor herself like this.

It was the first time she knew that she was such an important person to the prince and queen.

"It doesn't matter, Miss Jiang is a distinguished guest invited by the queen mother herself, and I have to escort her well. What's more," the prince smiled, and said deliberately: "The curtains and brocades of the carriage in the East Palace are too thick. It's getting boring."

"..."

Hearing that the prince was making fun of herself, Jiang Yue raised a stiff smile, and slowly lowered the curtain to block the other party's teasing sight.

Now that she doesn't even have the freedom to lift the curtain, Jiang Yue sighed deeply. She felt like a light on her back during this long but not long journey.

Finally arrived at the gate of the palace, the carriage stopped suddenly, Jiang Yue rubbed her hands, but did not move.She thought that she could delay it for a moment, and didn't want to face the prince for another moment.

"Miss Jiang, we have arrived at the gate of the palace, please ask Miss Jiang to get off the sedan chair." The male attendant's voice came from outside the curtain.

Jiang Yue couldn't see everything outside the curtain, and so many things had happened recently, she was always a little uneasy.

"Where's the leaf?" Jiang Yue asked calmly while clutching the brocade on the carriage seat.

Hearing Miss calling him, Ye Zi hurriedly stepped forward and gave the male attendant a nod.

"Miss, the leaves are here."

After confirming that it was Ye Zi's voice, Jiang Yue felt that her heart was a little bit tense before she relaxed more than half.

Only then was she willing to walk to the curtain of the carriage, slowly opened the curtain, and walked out of the carriage.

Ye Zi quickly and steadily supported her down the steps.

Jiang Yue looked around and was a little surprised to find that only the attendants and Ye Zi were there.

"Where's His Royal Highness?" These attendants were all sent by the Eastern Palace, she didn't dare to speak too loudly, she only dared to ask in a low voice.

Swallowing, Ye Zi cautiously replied: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince left when he was about to reach the gate of the palace, and asked the servants to send the young lady to the queen. They said that there is something else in the East Palace, but the slaves didn't hear clearly."

Nodding her head, Jiang Yue felt much more relaxed when he didn't follow.

"Let's go, let's enter the palace, don't waste the time." Ye Zi followed Jiang Yue, and Jiang Yue followed the attendants into the palace.

This is Jiang Yue's second time entering the palace alone. She really can't adapt to the oppressive feeling brought by the red walls in the palace, or feels that her future is uncertain, and she is not very happy.

In front of Kunning Palace, Jiang Yue saw a familiar maid greet her.

Jiang Yue searched for the memory of this person in her mind, and suddenly remembered that she was the queen's personal maid, Qin'er.

"Miss Jiang, you are finally here. The empress has been waiting for you inside for a long time, so come in with your servants." Qin'er warmly greeted.

This kind of enthusiasm is really rare, Jiang Yue is not used to it, and barely holds up a smile.

"Yes."

She stepped out and followed Qin'er in.

The empress sat on her seat in such a majestic manner, and turned her head leisurely when she heard the sound of Jiang Yue entering the door.

"Miss Jiang, are you here?" The queen changed her solemnity just now, and smiled, showing a gentle and loving look.

"Empress, my servant is late, please forgive me, Empress." Jiang Yue saluted.

"Hurry up and forgive me. I asked the prince to invite you here. The prince is reckless. You didn't look down on him, did you?"

The queen used soft moves from the beginning, Jiang Yue was uneasy, not knowing what would happen next.
