After she became a county magistrate, she took the ghost to investigate the case

Chapter 383 Underhand

Xu Yingying, who was standing nearby, also heard it. She laughed sarcastically, "Your Majesty is really... very busy with government affairs. Even when he accompanied me out to see the scenery, he had to be dragged back to deal with state affairs."

The palace maids and eunuchs around all lowered their heads, not daring to breathe. In the entire palace, only Xu Yingying dared to speak to Li Siqi like this.

Facing Xu Yingying's sarcasm, Li Siqi was not angry at all. He just smiled and said to Xu Yingying: "Sorry Yingying, I will be back soon."

After saying this, Li Siqi seemed very anxious, turned around and left the Imperial Garden.

As soon as Li Siqi left, Xu Yingying felt bored and planned to go back to Fengyi Palace, but accidents often happened at this time.

Xu Yingying was looking at the scenery of the lotus pond at this time. When she was about to leave, she heard a cry from behind: "My queen, be careful!"

Xu Yingying thought something was wrong and when she wanted to hide to the side, it was too late.

Xu Yingying only felt that someone pushed her from behind, and she lost her balance and fell into the lotus pond.

Although it was already summer, the weather was not very hot, and the water in the lotus pond was even colder. Xu Yingying was not very good at swimming and was even a little afraid of water. When her whole body was immersed in the water, she froze in place and even forgot to struggle.

It was not until Xu Yingying was rescued from the water by the servants that she gradually came to her senses, but the first thing she did was to look at the other person who was rescued beside her.

That glance made Xu Yingying's blood rush backwards. The person was none other than Tuwaya, except that Tuwaya looked even more miserable than Xu Yingying. Not many of the servants could swim, so Tuwaya was rescued after Xu Yingying, and naturally drank a lot of water from the lake.

Now he is lying on the ground in a mess, coughing non-stop.

Xu Yingying was furious when she saw Tuwaya. It turned out that Tuwaya was just like Ye Dina, both of whom were disgusting.

Xu Yingying was helped up by her personal maid and walked towards Tuwaya angrily. Before Tuwaya could salute, Xu Yingying kicked her and said, "Bitch, are you trying to hurt me?"

"I warned you to stay away from me. Where's the boss? Get out!"

Xu Yingying rarely got so angry in the palace. The palace maids around her were frightened and hurriedly called the steward over.

"How did she get in?" Xu Yingying pointed at Tuwaya and questioned the maid in charge.

The maid looked at Tuwaya in surprise, hesitating and unable to speak, and finally knelt in front of Xu Yingying, "Your Majesty, please forgive me, Your Majesty, please forgive me."

"I really don't know why she appeared here. I know that the queen doesn't like her, so she specially left her in Fengyi Palace."

Perhaps Xu Yingying was too frightened, or perhaps her blood and qi attacked her heart. Before Xu Yingying could deal with Tuwaya, she lost consciousness and fainted the next second.

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty!..." All the servants around came over, panicking for a moment.

Fortunately, Lian Qiao was still somewhat rational. "Someone, prepare the sedan chair! Go back to the palace and quickly invite Doctor Wang! You, you go to the imperial study to find the emperor and tell him that something happened to the queen. Go quickly!"

Lian Qiao quickly arranged for the palace servants to go out, and then together with several palace maids, carefully lifted Xu Yingying onto the sedan chair and returned to Fengyi Palace as quickly as possible. Of course, Lian Qiao did not forget to bring Tuwaya with her. Xu Yingying's condition was unclear now. If anything went wrong, Tuwaya would be the culprit, and she naturally could not be allowed to escape.

The imperial physician was also very fast and arrived at Fengyi Palace almost at the same time as Xu Yingying returned to the palace.

After receiving the news, Li Siqi also hurried over from the imperial study.

Inside the courtyard of Fengyi Palace, Tuwaya was kneeling there, with two guards standing beside her, following her.

When Li Siqi walked by, Tuwaya looked at him hopefully, but Li Siqi looked at her with cold eyes, as if hiding murderous intent. Judging from his posture, he probably wanted to cut Tuwaya into pieces.

"Keep her in good care of me. Kneel here until the Queen wakes up and await her decision." Li Siqi said this and hurried into the hall.

The light in Tuwaya's eyes also dimmed. It was Li Siqi who told her to do this. She thought Li Siqi would save her life. Now it seems that she was naive.

Xu Yingying was still in a coma at this time. When Li Siqi walked in, Wang Li had just finished taking Xu Yingying's pulse.

"Doctor Wang, how is the queen's condition now?" Li Siqi asked anxiously. Although he asked Tuwaya to give Xu Yingying some stimulation, he never thought of letting Xu Yingying fall into a coma. He didn't dare to think about what would happen if Xu Yingying lost her memory again.

Wang Li's expression eased, and he said, "Your Majesty, the Empress is fine. She just fell into the water, and some cold air entered her body. Coupled with excessive shock, she fainted. I will prescribe a prescription for the Empress later. When the Empress wakes up, drink the medicine according to the prescription for seven days, and she will be almost recovered."

Li Siqi still trusted Wang Li, and after hearing this, he unconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.

"Okay, everyone, please leave. I will take care of the Queen." Li Siqi waved his hand, signaling everyone to leave.

Soon, Li Siqi and Xu Yingying were the only ones left in the hall. Looking at Xu Yingying's sleeping face, Li Siqi carefully reached out his hand and touched Xu Yingying's cheek. His movements were very gentle, as if he was very afraid of waking Xu Yingying up.

But at the moment when Li Siqi's hand touched her, Xu Yingying opened her eyes and quickly grabbed Li Siqi's hand.

"What is your majesty going to do? Are you trying to stab me again because I didn't die?" Xu Yingying shot a sharp look at Li Siqi.

There was some regret in Li Siqi's eyes, regret that he was just a little bit away from touching Xu Yingying's face.

"Yingying, how could you think of me like this? The palace maid who pushed you into the water is now kneeling outside the palace, waiting for your decision, Yingying. How could I possibly want you to die?" Li Siqi had an innocent look on his face. Seeing Xu Yingying thinking of him like this, he still showed an innocent expression.

Xu Yingying was furious when she saw Li Siqi was still playing dumb with her. She waved Li Siqi's hand away and said bluntly, "Your Majesty is really forgetful. You should know who that maid resembles without me telling you."

Li Siqi paused, then looked at Xu Yingying seriously. Xu Yingying seemed to be very angry and didn't notice that she had just said something wrong.

"Yingying, you remember everything?" Li Siqi said in surprise.
