The next day, Gu Nuo'er had just woken up.
The child's cheeks were pink. She rolled over and opened her round eyes to look around.
In the process of waking up, she realized that her father had probably gone to the morning court and wasn't by her side.
Her mother wasn't lying beside her either.
Gu Nuo'er sat up by herself and rubbed her eyes with her small hands.
She had always had an outstanding sense of hearing. At this moment, she heard the sound of Wanyin and Wanxuan talking to each other softly in the outer hall.
"His Majesty went to interrogate Consort Xiao this morning and she insisted that she didn't know that the assassin was hiding in her palace. She said it so passionately that I almost believed her!"
"Fortunately, Her Highness is more skilled and had long guessed that she would deny this. Therefore, she tortured that assassin in advance. The assassin confessed that Consort Xiao gave him a large sum of money.
