In the yard, there was a cry: "Okay, today's county magistrate, without the instructions of our boss, who said that the night is useless!"

Liang Shuyan couldn't believe it, so she walked out quickly and blocked the man's way.

The man looked at Liang Shuyan with his eyes, raised his lips, and said, "Why, it's something that even a man can't handle, and for an old woman like you to talk about it, don't you think it's a joke in itself?"

"Let your boss come out!"

A powerful statement, but the man in front of him couldn't believe it. He rubbed his eyes with rough hands, and then murmured after confirming: "You are actually better than your county magistrate?"

The people around took a look and started talking one after another. They always felt that Liang Shuyan should not get involved with these bandits. No matter how good a tea girl Liang Shuyan was, she would not be able to explain it to the bandits after all?

Li Zheng's firm voice came from the crowd: "You idiots, don't you even look at who is standing in front of you? How dare you talk to a child in such a tone? Do you not want your head, or are you saying Do you want to wipe out your bandit den at once?"

Everyone looked around after hearing the sound, and saw that Li Zheng had arrived with Princess Sweetheart, his back slightly hunched, following closely behind Princess Sweetheart. Aunt Liu yelled in surprise: "Oh, I said you... You don’t know who is in this bandit’s den, but you don’t know who this is? Princess Sweetheart is Ruren’s mother!”

Aunt Liu's words brought disaster to Liang Shuyan. She never expected that behind Princess Sweetheart was the Queen, wearing a scarlet dress. When she heard someone say such words, she said with a stern face: "Yes. Who said that my sweetheart princess is the mother of a so-called Ruren?"

Seeing Princess Sweetheart, everyone showed great admiration and respect. So the person in front of them is the master of the harem, the empress. Doesn't offending the empress mean losing one's life?

Although Aunt Liu was an ignorant peasant woman, she still knew this. Her trembling hands couldn't help shaking in her sleeves, and her old face became pale.

"She, her aunt, I, I didn't mean it, I mean?"

How could Liang Shuyan not understand what Aunt Liu meant? Aunt Liu wanted to warn these bandits, but ultimately it was to protect her. If she couldn't stand up and take the blame for Aunt Liu at this time, wouldn't she be blinding Aunt Liu to herself? A sincere defense?

Liang Shuyan leaned against Aunt Liu's ear and whispered, "Don't worry!"

Aunt Liu's nervous mood was somewhat comforted. Liang Shuyan glanced at the queen in front of her, then knelt on the ground: "A commoner's wife has seen the queen, and she is a thousand years old!"

The Queen looked at Liang Shuyan in front of her, and then looked at the people behind her who were also kneeling on the ground. She couldn't help but sneered: "Why, you dare to call yourself a commoner's wife. I think you can be a princess anyway." Did you kiss your mother?"

Liang Shuyan's body trembled slightly: "No, the Queen, it was the common woman who saw the princess coming and said this in a hurry. This was not what the common woman really meant. Please calm down, the Empress."

The queen winked at the guards beside her, as if she wanted to take Liang Shuyan away. Princess Sweetheart who was standing aside suddenly became anxious, and hurriedly came to the queen's side, pulled the queen's sleeves and began to plead for mercy. : "Mother, please calm down. Before you found your sweetheart, wasn't your sweetheart just a child taking care of her? She didn't do anything wrong?"

The Queen Empress did not expect that Princess Sweetheart would actually stand on Liang Shuyan's side, and then said: "Asshole, you are the princess of this palace. How can you call a common woman your mother? Where do you want to put this palace?"

Liang Shuyan and her son and daughter-in-law also knelt on the ground, kowtowing to the Queen. Even Li Zheng, who was so arrogant just now, knelt aside obediently and listened quietly to the Queen's scolding. "Empress, the common woman knows her fault, but this matter has nothing to do with anyone here, nor does it have anything to do with the princess. I beg you to please calm down. You can punish the common woman however you want, and the common woman is willing to accept it!"

The queen glanced at Liang Shuyan who was kneeling on the ground, and said loudly: "Don't think that you are great because the emperor conferred a title on you, a child. Don't forget, the emperor will not protect you all the time. If you don't want to hurt your family, just give it to me." Please be patient, Gong An."

At this time, Liang Shuyan dared to raise her head, her heart was beating hard. If she said another word, the lives of the Jin family would be over.

Princess Sweetheart took the queen's arm and said, "Queen Mother, don't be angry. From now on, Sweetheart, I will listen to you in everything."

The queen's mind suddenly came to the wedding that she was planning for the princess in the past two days. Although the princess was unwilling, the queen had no intention of giving up.

"You said, you will listen to me in everything from now on, right? So, you agreed to marry your cousin Yu Wenyong?"

Liang Shuyan did not dare to raise her head. She felt as if something had caught her in her heart. Although Princess Sweetheart was not born to her, but after following her for so many years, the family relationship could not be let go no matter what. Now, in order to save her, Princess Sweetheart, Are you going to marry someone you don't like?

She wanted to speak, but she didn't dare. Her whole body could not help but tremble.

"Why, whoever the princess marries also needs the consent and approval of you, the tea boy?"

The queen's eyes looked at Liang Shuyan, filled with faint murderous intent.

Liang Shuyan raised her head slightly and raised the corners of her mouth: "No, of course the Empress has the final say in this matter. I believe that the Empress will not ruin the happiness of the princess's life. What do you think, Empress?"

How could the queen not hear such words? She shouted at Liang Shuyan in front of her: "Liang Shuyan, you are so bold. Do you really think that I dare not touch you? What is disobeying me?" Have you ever thought about such an outcome for your family?"

"My dear mother, I only have one request. I hope my mother can let Ruren's family go. I am willing to follow my mother and leave this place right now!"

The queen's eyes rested on Liang Shuyan for about half an hour. Finally, she snorted coldly: "For the sake of my sweetheart, I won't care about you and others like you. Let's go back to the palace!"

The maids and women behind her also followed Wu Yangyang out. Liang Shuyan knelt on the ground for more than two hours. Her whole body was limp on the ground, and big beads of sweat oozed from her forehead.

"Mom, are you okay?" (End of Chapter)
