"I'm fine. I'm probably just tired from running earlier."
"Tired?" Xi Hanzhou quickly moved farther inside. "Then lie down and rest for a while."
Su Qiao lowered her head and looked at the somewhat dirty hem of her robe, then shook her head. "No. I need to go back and wash up."
By now, the Emperor's side should have already received the news that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had gotten into trouble.
"Then I'll come see you later." Xi Hanzhou felt that her behavior just now had been completely off and was still somewhat worried.
Su Qiao nodded.
"By the way, do you remember what happened earlier?"
Xi Hanzhou blinked. "I saw you when you came."
At that time, he hadn't completely lost himself. He had been struggling desperately to stay conscious, and in his daze, he saw her leap off her horse and rush toward him.
"I came out of Father Emperor's tent and heard that you had gone into the woods to hunt, so I planned to look for you. I didn't expect to be ambushed shortly after entering the woods. I was separated from the others and inexplicably drugged. Then I encountered that woman, and afterward, you arrived."
"As long as you know what happened." Su Qiao was worried that he still didn't know the enemy's objective.
As she spoke, Su Qiao suddenly turned around. With astonishing speed, she reached out and tightly gripped Eunuch Yu by the throat.
'Ah!'
Eunuch Yu had never expected her to do this so suddenly. He had no chance to resist before she seized him by the neck and slammed him onto the ground.
"Miss Su, you... What are you doing?" Eunuch Yu was furious and anxious, with a trace of panic in his heart.
