She was silent and nodded.

I picked up the cup and poured her half a cup of hot water. After she drank it, she breathed a sigh of relief.

This time, I did not retreat to the chair just now and sat down, but stood by the bed, watching her relieve her expression a lot, and then said, "Empress, do you really think that the people in Xichuan are detaining the prince, the second prince, and Princess Ling as bargaining chips to threaten the emperor?"

She looked up at me and said, "What do you think?"

I said, "The things I did in the palace before, and the news that Chabixing went to Beijing were not fake. My younger brother is the head of the Yan family, and he will not go back on his word."

“…”

Yang Jinqiao was silent for a while, then said, "I haven't seen the head of the Yan family. I don't know what kind of person he is."

“…”

"I only know what kind of person you are, and I believe in you."

I felt relieved. Just as she was about to say something, she said again: "But, do you know what else we have experienced?"

I frowned: "What?"

Yang Jinqiao said slowly: "Just the day after we left Xishan Academy, we were assassinated."

"What?!" I was shocked: "Assassination?"

"Yes, a killer group appeared in the middle of the night, with about twenty people."

“…”

"I'm closer to death than the last time."

I know that the "last time" she said was the time when she encountered chaos in Shangyang Palace. Although she had planned to escape, she was still very thrilling in the chaos after all. Now she actually said that it was closer to death than that time--

At this time, I felt cold sweat coming out. I subconsciously looked at the door, then frowned and looked at her: "But why didn't they mention this?"

If they were assassinated, people like Lu Xinrong and Zhu Fanghua would be known to everyone?

Yang Jinqiao sneered, as if he understood what I was thinking: "If they all know, then everyone in the world would know."

"you--"

"It was me who asked my people to resist the assassination. My people suffered heavy losses!"

“…!”

By the way, I know she has her own power. Even if she enters the palace and becomes a concubine, she will not give up on her own people.

I looked up at her: "Why didn't you let them know?"
