Originally, Su Ningxin just asked casually and had no intention of questioning the princess's decision, so seeing the princess like this, she didn't say anything more.
But there was one thing she had to remind her, "Mother and concubine, where do you plan to ask the prince to write the edict?"
Su Ningxin clearly remembered the princess's instructions to Hong Wax, "Let him come over." 'My relationship with the prince is that of father-in-law and daughter-in-law. Even if the princess is present, it would not look good to have Prince An come to her yard.
After listening to Su Ningxin's question, the princess immediately understood what Su Ningxin meant. Knowing that she had indeed thought poorly, she said,
"You have just moved here. I think the study has not been decorated yet. With Xiaohan's stubborn temper, no one is allowed to enter the study. I will let the prince go back to the main courtyard to write the handwriting."
Then the princess added, "I'll have to come back to live in a while. It's too much trouble, and I don't dare to go back to my devil's cave."
Su Ningxin smiled, knowing that the princess was worried that there were still those infertile spices in her bedroom.
"By the way, concubine, the people in our mansion are indeed a little lazy. The soldiers don't even know that someone sneaks into the mansion. The groom also sleeps on duty at night. It's time to take good care of it. After all, the soldiers are allowed to do whatever they want. If the concubine is transferred out of the palace at will, it is inevitable that people will take advantage of her."
These words were almost a direct expression of dissatisfaction with Concubine Li. After all, Su Ningxin now knew that Concubine Li colluded with Hongzhu to poison the princess. Now she only had to get the evidence, so she would naturally target Concubine Li.
But the princess didn't know about this, "The prince and I were not in the palace, so we asked Concubine Li to take care of the affairs in the palace. She didn't understand the affairs of the palace soldiers, so it was inevitable that something would go wrong, and the housekeeper would not be able to survive." I will be back soon, and I will just let him take care of the affairs of the soldiers from now on."
Su Ningxin no longer argued about this matter, but suggested, "Concubine, you can't always live with me, otherwise we will go to your room to check it out tomorrow, and then send someone to search the maids." In your room, this kind of poison must appear next to you year after year. I think she should still have it in her hands, and then someone can steal it and get it."
The princess had no objection to this. She couldn't feel at ease with such a person by her side, especially now that she was pregnant, and there was no room for mistakes.
Su Ningxin called Shuangbai in, asked her to go to Concubine Li's courtyard, told Hongwa to take the prince back to the main courtyard, and then personally sent the princess to the main courtyard.
After listening to the princess's account, the prince was furious when he found out that the assassin had actually entered the house. He immediately wrote an order and asked his men to go to the government office and the army to mobilize manpower to search the whole city.
Su Ningxin didn't pay attention to what happened next. Anyway, her horse was still fine. Whether she could catch the assassin or not was not her business.
The princess simply left the prince in the main courtyard and let him sleep by himself. As for whether the poison had any effect on him, the princess didn't bother to care. So much? Everything is fine. One more day of sleep probably won't have any impact.
After explaining the matter to the prince, when the princess returned to Su Ningxin's yard, Su Ningxin had fallen asleep again. Seeing her with such a big heart, the princess felt dumbfounded.
The next day, Su Ningxin received the results of the overnight search last night. The assassin escaped from the city after stealing the horse last night. The only gain was that he found a road leading to the outside of the city in a residence not far from the city wall. typical.
People in the government office speculated that the assassins entered and exited the city through this passage. However, there was no one in the residence when they discovered it, and there was no way to find out when the secret passage was dug.
While Su Ningxin was biting the steamed dumplings, she listened to Shuangbai's story about the secret tunnel. Everyone else was sighing that Dayong's man was so generous that he actually dug such a secret tunnel.
Only Su Ningxin felt it was hard to explain. If the Dayong people knew that they had spent so much effort to dig the secret tunnel, not only did they not succeed in assassinating An Ju, but even the stolen horses were fake, how would they feel
At this time, on the border of Dayong, He Lianfu was so angry that his skull was about to explode. He pointed at the brown horse tied to the tree trunk and his fingers were trembling. After a while, he roared angrily, "What's going on? My Where’s the horse?”
The Dayong soldier on the side said with a grimace, "Fourth Prince, no one has touched your horse since you brought it back. No one will ever change it."
"How could the color be changed if it wasn't changed? Huh?" Helian Fu roared.
It was the military advisor with a higher status in this group of people who came forward and said, "Fourth Prince, are you sure that what you brought back is a maroon horse? It was dark at the time, and we didn't see it clearly."
Helian Fu was stunned for a moment when he heard the military advisor's words, and then he rubbed his hair dejectedly. Now he was not sure whether he had led the wrong horse.
At that time, there was a fire and he was walking in a hurry. He had stepped on it in advance to confirm the location of the bay red horse, so he didn't bother to identify it again.
"I'm so angry!" He Lianfu stood up suddenly, pulled out his machete and was about to kill the brown horse, but was stopped by his subordinates.
The military advisor was also on the side to comfort him. Nowadays, there are frequent wars between Da Qi and Da Yong. Horses are a scarce resource for both parties. It is indeed a pity to kill the brown horse like this.
In the end, He Lianfu still couldn't refute the military advisor's reputation, so he put down his scimitar bitterly, feeling lost and worried for a while.
He secretly swore in his heart that the next time he had a chance to come to Daqi, he would definitely get the bay-red horse. At the same time, he was also worried about what would happen after he returned. He went back to steal the horse on his own initiative, and even exposed the secret passage. Brother Huang would probably give him a severe scolding.
Su Ningxin didn't know the situation of the horse thief, but was planning to help the princess catch the mole.
Su Ningxin was not very sure about this matter. After all, when Shuangbai monitored Hong Wax and Concubine Li, she did not see anything handed to Hong Wax by Concubine Li, so there was no guarantee that she could definitely get it from Hong Wax and Concubine Li. Evidence was found from Concubine Li.
After all, Concubine Li was also a high-ranking concubine. Without physical evidence and witness, she really couldn't be convicted with just a few words of identification.
There is no point worrying about this now. I have told the princess that I will take action today, so there is no way to hesitate.
In fact, the most important thing now is the safety of the princess and her unborn child. Since we already know that Hong Wa and Concubine Li are the ones causing the trouble, as long as we are careful and vigilant, we don't have to worry about them being able to harm the princess again without anyone noticing.
With this thought in mind, Su Ningxin packed up and walked to the princess's yard with her two maids. Halfway there, she met Hongzhu walking forward in a hurry. She stopped and bowed when she saw Su Ningxin.
"You are in a hurry, is there something important?" Su Ningxin asked doubtfully.
Hongzhu said with a bitter face, "It's not important, I'm used to it. Last night, the princess asked the prince to come back to the main courtyard for something important. At that time, the prince was resting in Concubine Li's yard. Concubine Li felt that she had been wronged. , it’s making a fuss again.”
