Su Ningxin had never forgotten the brocade box in Xiao An's baggage. The phoenix hairpin and the fragments of the imperial edict inside were definitely involved in the late emperor's struggle for the throne.
She really wanted to find out the reason, otherwise she would not be at ease if such a time bomb was placed next to her.
Zhong Xiyan didn't realize that Su Ningxin was testing him. After thinking about it carefully, he replied, "There is no woman in the Zhong family who has entered the palace as a concubine. There should be no one close to her. However, Xiao An often enters the palace with her mother. Maybe the concubine will reward you."
Su Ningxin kept observing Zhong Xiyan's expression, and seeing that he didn't look panicked or surprised, he probably wasn't lying.
However, it is not difficult to understand that Zhong Xiyan is just a concubine in the Zhong family after all, and he should not be allowed to know such secretive things.
After briefly explaining a few things about the escort agency, Su Ningxin returned home. She would have to go to the polo field soon, so naturally she couldn't stay here for too long.
After returning to the house and hurriedly dressing up, Su Ningxin and her party sat in the carriage and went to the polo ground at Chen time.
In fact, Su Ningxin prefers riding horses. After all, the feeling of riding a horse along the long street makes her feel more heroic and heroic, but forget it today. She got up too early and wanted to catch up on her sleep on the carriage.
When she came out this time, she left Xia Mutou in the yard and brought out the other three maids.
Although Shuanghua said that she liked her embroidery very much, Su Ningxin was afraid of suffocating her in the room.
If there is a chance, Su Ningxin would like Shuangbai to take Xiao An to Zhong Xiyan and his family's residence. Xiao An and Zhong Xiyan depend on each other and must be very attached to him. They haven't seen each other for so long, so it won't look like they are meeting each other. This cold-blooded master.
Su Ningxin leaned on the pillow and closed her eyes to relax. Suddenly the carriage jolted, causing Xiao An and Shuang Hua to scream in surprise.
Su Ningxin was fine. She and Shuangbai both had martial arts skills, and their reactions were faster than ordinary people. When she sensed something was wrong, she held on to the armrest at hand, but it was too late to take care of Shuanghua and Xiaoan.
"Are you okay?" Shuangbai helped Xiao An who fell to the ground and asked Shuang Hua, who was covering her head on the other side when he saw that she was not injured.
Su Ningxin also looked over, took Shuanghua's hand away and looked at it, only to see that her forehead hit the wall and was bleeding.
Giving Shuangbai a wink, Shuangbai immediately said to the outside, "What's going on? Coachman, how do you drive?"
It was really beneath the status of the Crown Princess Su Ningxin to do this kind of thing of reprimanding the servants, so a maid next to her would be more suitable.
The coachman outside trembled because of Shuangbai's question and was too frightened to say anything. He had just heard the screams and falls inside. If he really hurt the Crown Princess, he would definitely be severely punished.
The coachman looked for help at Lian Sheng, who was coming from behind. He had driven for the prince before, and he still had some friendship with Lian Sheng. He only hoped that Lian Sheng, a popular person in front of the prince, could help him to beg for help.
Lian Sheng saw that the coachman was really pitiful, so he didn't blame him this time, so he dismounted and stood in front of the carriage and bowed, "Is the Crown Princess injured?"
Hearing Liansheng's voice, Shuangbai immediately blushed and was speechless. Su Ning glanced at her with hatred. If she got married like this in the future, Lian Sheng would still be in control.
Su Ningxin slightly opened the corner of the car curtain and looked at Lian Sheng outside, "I'm fine, but two maids were injured."
Hearing Su Ningxin's words, Lian Sheng became nervous unconsciously. He wanted to ask Shuangbai if he was injured but knew that he couldn't ask in this situation, so he could only look at the car curtain helplessly.
This actually made Su Ning feel better. Maybe Shuangbai wasn't the one being controlled.
"What happened just now?" Su Ningxin asked. Although she didn't know exactly what happened, seeing that Lian Sheng asked for forgiveness instead of the coachman asking for forgiveness, it seemed that something unexpected had happened.
"Reporting to the Crown Princess, the eldest princess's carriage just passed in front. The driver hit the stall next to him to avoid it. I hope the Crown Princess will forgive me."
[The eldest princess’s mansion? This name appears quite often recently.]
Su Ning thought silently and asked, "The person sitting in the car is the eldest princess. As a junior, I have no choice but to go and pay homage to her."
Although she said this, Su Ningxin already had the answer in her heart. It was estimated that there was a 90% chance that the person in the car was Princess Yaoyi.
"The person in the carriage is Princess Yaoyi of the Princess's Mansion," Lian Sheng said after hesitating for a moment, "The maid next to the princess said that there is order in order of superiority and inferiority. There is no reason for the princess's carriage to follow the princess's carriage. later."
"In order of superiority and inferiority?" Su Ningxin repeated doubtfully, and then suddenly understood what Princess Yaoyi meant.
[I really want to eat this dumb guy. It’s really orderly.]
[Damn Chu Jihan, it’s all your fault. I can’t help but be targeted by such a woman without thinking, and I have to give way to her in terms of rank, ahhhh!]
[There is also the abominable Chu Luojue, a concubine wants to be granted the title of princess, why don’t you just give it to a fifth-grade princess for a while, why should you give it to a fourth-grade princess, ah!]
After cursing everything she could in her heart, Su Ningxin felt better.
What Princess Yaoyi said about the order of hierarchy is true. The main reason is that although the eldest princess Ning Xu is not really a powerful person in the royal family, she can't stand up to others because of her seniority.
Prince An still calls her aunt according to her seniority, but when it comes to Chu Jihan's generation, she will call her aunt.
Princess Yaoyi is the daughter of the eldest princess Ning Xu, and is one generation ahead of Su Ningxin. Therefore, although the princess and the Crown Princess are both in the fourth rank, due to the order of seniority, Su Ningxin is She must go first.
[You, an aunt, still want to marry Chu Jihan? Do you think you are Xiao Longnu?]
[Sigh, I thought back then I was still the second-rank Concubine Chen, but now I have to suffer this kind of injustice, Chu Jihan, you big pig’s hooves.]
Su Ningxin scolded Chu Jihan in her heart, but in fact she didn't intend to just suffer this loss.
Looking at the stalls on the side, Su Ningxin said without any difference in her tone, "Take some silver to compensate the stall owner. Although it was caused by someone else's reckless collision, after all, it was our carriage that hit us, so we should naturally bear the responsibility. "
[Although I can’t overpower you in terms of seniority, you can just hold on to this reputation for being reckless.]
"Yes." Lian Sheng bowed and responded. After saying that, he took out his wallet and took out a piece of silver and gave it to the stall owner whose stall was knocked over. The stall owner immediately changed from crying to being grateful. After all, a piece of silver was given to the stall owner. Enough to buy everything on the stall.
"Shuangbai, you went to buy snacks yesterday. Do you know where there is a medical clinic nearby? Send Shuanghua and Xiaoan to the medical clinic." Su Ningxin asked Shuangbai deliberately.
