Seeing that it was getting late, Su Ning felt bad about staying outside for too long, so she got up and left.
Before going out, he asked Gu Mingxi, "Are you okay here?"
Gu Mingxi smiled nonchalantly, "It's not like he was tortured. He was just forced to hand over someone. God can tell me, where can I find someone for him?"
"How long can you stay in the Northland this time?"
"I don't know. It's definitely not a trivial matter that can make him come here in person. He has to solve it before he can leave." Gu Mingxi gave a general answer without going into details.
Su Ningxin didn't force it, the two waved goodbye and left.
It was originally just a covert conversation, just say a few words casually and let Chu Luojue stay up late to figure it out.
In fact, the two of them had already talked about everything while playing chess, using Morse code. They played chess with one hand and moved the other hand lightly on the table to pass the message.
The emperor's secret guards around them have always been paying attention to the two of them, but the focus has always been on the words they scolded each other, or the chess pieces on the chessboard. As for them, they seemed to be placed casually on the table but happened to be in the other side of their blind spot. No one cares about the hand.
Su Ningxin returned to the rouge shop without anyone noticing. Su Ningxin left with a bunch of rouge and sat on the carriage. At this time, Shuangbai asked,
"Girl, is the queen's location safe? If the emperor goes crazy and threatens the princess and your life, will she come back?"
At this time, Shuangbai frowned, with some confusion in his eyes, thinking that if the queen came back, the efforts of the princess and the girl would be in vain, but if she didn't come back, it would be too ungrateful.
Shuangbai's worries are not unreasonable. Now that the emperor can put Gu Mingxi under house arrest, who can guarantee that if he can't find the queen for too long, he will attack Su Ningxin? Who can guarantee that the house arrest will not turn into a life-threatening situation.
But Su Ningxin smiled at Shuangbai and said comfortingly, "Don't worry, the boss and I will be fine."
Although she didn't know if Chu Luojue would want to use them as bargaining chips to threaten the queen, she knew that even if she threatened, it would be useless.
After all, you can't even find anyone, let alone negotiate. Even if you release the news, you can't be sure whether the other party has received it.
The fact is, of course, it cannot be received.
Su Ningxin knew from Gu Mingxi that the piece of jade carved into a worry-free flower she got by chance was actually useful. Now the queen has returned to modern times.
They are no longer in the same world. No matter how hard Chu Luoye tries to commit suicide, she will not know it. After all, the world they are in now is not a real history, but more like a parallel world.
Even if Chu Luoye made a name for himself as a wise king or a notorious person for thousands of years, the queen would have no way of knowing about it.
Su Ningxin was really happy that the queen could return to the present. Not to mention anything else, it was better for the queen to have children in modern times. With the medical conditions in ancient times, even the death rate in the palace was a figure that is astonishing to modern people.
When Su Ningxin heard the news, she was also very frightened, but later thinking about it, it was really unexpected and reasonable.
Shouldn't the heroine have this kind of plot where she runs with the ball
Well, I digress. It should be that the Queen's character would not make such an irrational decision as drinking poisoned wine and then leaving, unless she was pregnant and had a decreased IQ and emotional disorder.
You see, this makes sense.
What Gu Mingxi meant was that he wanted to help her escape from Chu Luojue, and then used the Queen's news as a life-saving card. If Chu Luojue really did something to her, after all, life was the most important thing.
She checked with her people and found out that she might have really misunderstood Chu Luojue, but there was definitely someone behind it planning all this. It couldn't be as simple as the jealousy of a little palace maid.
It was a bit difficult for Su Ningxin to help Gu Mingxi escape. She actually didn't have much manpower at the moment, especially if she had to face Chu Luojue, and the power of Anjun Prince's Palace would certainly not be used. Fortunately, Gu Mingxi gave her gave her another piece of news.
This news is about why Chu Luojue came to the North in person. Although she doesn't know the specific details, it seems to be related to the military camp. It is estimated that it will not take long to break out. When the time comes, Gu Mingxi will take the opportunity to escape, and she will be there. Just give me a favor or two.
Along the way, Su Ning was thinking about what happened in the military camp. The most serious thing that could happen in the military camp was traitors and mutiny.
And Prince An can handle these matters on his own, so there is no reason for the emperor to go there himself
Thinking of the military camp, Su Ning couldn't help but think of Lin Yue. She seemed to have just encountered the incident of food being mixed with sand. But wasn't this incident due to a personal grudge between Lin Yue and the Yang family? Such a trivial matter would not alarm the emperor, right?
Su Ningxin didn't figure it out after thinking about it. When she returned to the palace, she received an invitation from the eldest princess's palace, inviting her to attend the flower viewing party at the eldest princess's palace.
The current season is the beginning of summer, and all kinds of flowers are indeed in bloom. There are many flower-viewing parties like this in every house.
The Anjun Prince's Mansion did not do anything because the princess was pregnant and did not want to work hard, let alone make a fuss, so there was no action.
Su Ningxin specifically asked the princess what she meant, and the princess still supported her going. After all, the banquet at the Grand Princess Mansion was one of the top banquets in the Daming Mansion, so it would be good for her to go and make an appearance.
Since the princess thought it was time to go, she naturally agreed. What the princess said did make sense. She lived in the palace and married the princess, so she couldn't let people see her.
And Su Ningxin is also indispensable for this kind of banquet. Anyway, judging from her years of experience, all banquets are Hongmen banquets. The only difference is whether they are for her or not.
Even if someone is targeting her, she is not afraid. She will not fall behind in chess, calligraphy and painting, nor will she fall into the trap of plotting. After all, the value of force is there. It is not like she has never done it before to push those who want to push her away. People who go into the water kick them all in turn.
The banquet was put aside by Su Ningxin. She was more concerned about the military camp. The more she thought about it, the more she felt that it might be related to Lin Yue. There was no basis for it, just intuition.
After hesitating for two days, Su Ningxin decided to go to Lin Yue to find out.
Having made up her mind, Su Ningxin put on her night clothes and sneaked out of the palace that night. She first went to the address left by Lin Yue. As expected, there was no one there.
Although Lin Yue is a junior general and her access is not as strict as that of ordinary soldiers, she cannot always be away from the camp, so her residence must be just a temporary place to stay and will not be her permanent residence.
Su Ningxin was not disappointed at all. If Lin Yue was here, she would be left running around. If not, she would just go to the military camp to explore.
