A trace of doubt flashed in Chu Jihan's heart, but he nodded without asking further questions.
Although he didn't know what Su Ningxin wanted to do, Chu Jihan knew very well that Su Ningxin was not an unreasonable person. She knew that time was running out and she had to return to the Northland immediately, but she still wanted to wait. It should be something very important.
Based on what he just heard from Su Ningxin, he felt that this matter was probably related to his mother and concubine, but Chu Jihan was puzzled. What could happen to his mother and concubine
"Ask your servant to prepare some dry food for you. I'll go out and be back in an hour or two." Su Ningxin told Chu Jihan, then turned and entered the inner room.
Chu Jihan said "Hello" and called the boy to go down and ask the kitchen to make some dry food as soon as possible. It didn't matter how good it was but it was edible. It had to be done within an hour.
After giving the instructions, Chu Jihan thought for a while and entered the room, where he saw Su Ningxin stuffing something into her clothes.
Su Ningxin had been paying attention to the sound at the door, so she heard Chu Jihan's footsteps as soon as he came in.
Chu Jihan happened to see the corner of the imperial edict peeking out of Su Ningxin's sleeves, "What is that? What do you do with it?"
Chu Jihan couldn't figure out what Su Ningxin was doing with the imperial edict, but he didn't doubt Su Ningxin's intentions. He knew Su Ningxin very well. After all, he had been a secret guard before and stayed in the palace for two years. Yes, with Su Ningxin's character, she will definitely collect a lot of things that are useful to her.
Looking at the hem of the imperial edict, Chu Jihan immediately had a guess in his mind, gold medal for immunity from death? Iron coupon elixir book
Chu Jihan felt that he was very close to the truth, because at this time, there were very few things that could be useful to Prince Anjun's palace. Unless he had something like this to avoid death, he could save his life. Thinking of Su Ning's thoughts just now, for the sake of his mother and concubine, Could it be that she wanted to use this to protect her mother-in-law
At this time, Chu Jihan was very moved. He naturally knew how precious such things were. In every dynasty, only ministers who followed the founding emperor could receive such rewards. They were all left as heirlooms for future generations to save their lives. Su Ning My heart actually went out of my way to do this for my mother and concubine.
"Ning'er, you..." Chu Jihan was speechless. He wanted to say, 'You don't have to be like this', but after all, it was his mother's life. How could he ignore her mother's life, but just inherit Su's life like this? He was afraid that even this generation would not be able to repay Ning Xin's love.
When Su Ningxin saw Chu Jihan coming in, she didn't stop him, so she openly showed him the imperial edict.
After that, he stuffed the imperial edict into his sleeve in front of Chu Jihan, and then said to Chu Jihan, "I want to go to the palace. If everything goes well, I can be back in an hour. Two hours at the latest. If two I haven't come back yet, so you don't need to wait for me to go back to Daming Mansion."
Chu Jihan suddenly lost his composure, "Is it dangerous?"
"There won't be any danger," Su Ningxin explained. Seeing that Chu Jihan didn't believe it, she added, "I'm not going to see the emperor, I'm just looking for someone to help me, and I won't let the emperor know in advance about the rebellion in Prince An's palace. , should be able to buy you some time to deal with these things."
"Forget it, I will rush back to Daming Mansion now and I will definitely be able to stabilize the situation without you taking any risks." Chu Jihan grabbed Su Ningxin's arm and said stubbornly. He really couldn't figure out how Su Ningxin could use it without seeing the emperor. The imperial edict exempted the emperor from sin. She must be afraid that she would worry about comforting herself.
"I'm not lying to you, it's really okay." Su Ningxin explained again, time is so tight, so why don't you make things worse? Isn't it good to be decisive
[Why don’t you believe me? I just want to find help from that dead eunuch Huang Dezheng.]Su Ningxin thought in her heart.
After hearing Su Ningxin's thoughts, Chu Jihan slowly let go of the hand holding Su Ningxin's arm. If he just went to Eunuch Huang for help, there shouldn't be any danger.
Su Ningxin probably wanted Eunuch Huang to help block the news. After all, Prince Jing's rebellion had just ended, and the emperor's affairs must be complicated. She suppressed the news from Beidi and then showed the emperor Huang Dezheng, the emperor's first. A great eunuch can still do it.
Thinking of this, Chu Jihan breathed a sigh of relief, but he felt even more guilty. He knew that Su Ningxin and Huang De were at odds, but now he had to ask Su Ningxin to put down her body and ask him for help. Ning'er must feel aggrieved. .
From now on, I will treat Ning'er well, listen to her in everything, and pamper her in whatever she wants, Chu Jihan silently swore in his heart.
At the same time, Chu Jihan was still secretly angry in his heart. If that dead eunuch Huang Dezheng dared to embarrass Ning'er, he would never let her go when he turned over.
"Then I'm leaving. Don't worry about coming back soon." Su Ningxin watched Chu Jihan loosen his hand and said with a smile to Chu Jihan. She didn't know that Chu Jihan had already thought so much in his mind in just a short moment. .
Compared with Chu Jihan's heaviness, Su Ning felt much more relaxed. She didn't think there would be any problems with this trip. After all, the biggest problem for her was that she was found to be carrying the imperial edict when entering and leaving the palace. It would be difficult to explain if you don't find out.
However, according to Su Ningxin's speculation, the palace is now in chaos. Although the emperor has returned to the palace, the guards and patrols of the guards should still be in chaos. And she has appeared in front of the guards. They Everyone knows that she is the hero of this chaos, so they should not embarrass her too much.
As for Chu Jihan's worry that Huang Dezheng would make things difficult for her, Su Ningxin was not worried at all. Although on the surface she and Huang De were incompatible, the actual situation was not that bad.
It is true that the two people have conflicting personalities, and they can't help but say something to each other when they see each other, but it is fake to frame each other. The relationship between the two is not that good, but it is not as bad as outsiders imagine.
Huang De has been with Chu Luojue since he was a child, and Su Ningxin has been with Gu Mingxi as a reading companion since he was very young. Therefore, Su Ningxin and Huang Dezheng have known each other since childhood. After so many years, they even have a dog. They already have feelings, not to mention that Su Ningxin is raising a eunuch.
The reason why outsiders think the relationship between the two is not good is actually because the two of them do it intentionally, apart from their tendency to quarrel. After all, after the emperor ascended the throne, he is no longer the prince who allowed them to joke without distinction, and Huang Dezheng was The location is more sensitive.
At that time, Su Ningxin was the favorite concubine of the Sixth Palace. Although everyone knew that it was fake, who knew when the fake thing would become real, so Su Ningxin didn't want to be with Huang Dezheng. The eunuch beside the emperor became a eunuch.
Not only would she be suspected by the emperor if she got too close, she would not get any benefits. After all, she was not interested in the things around the emperor. Naturally, Su Ningxin would not do such a thankless thing, so she had a tacit understanding with Huang Dezheng. maintain an antagonistic relationship.
